Chapter 174: Recruit Ding to perform martial arts, enter the prison to detect thieves

As soon as the news that Chen Zhi was going to recruit servants spread, it caused trouble among the tenant farmers under the name of the Chen family.

As a large family, the Chen family has a lot of land. Some of the land that was distributed to Chen Zhi was Zuozhai Village. Most of the villagers in the village lived on the Chen family's land. Not long ago, the elders in the village came forward and asked Chen Zhi to reduce the rent of the land.

The Chen Zhi family is like this. There are several houses in the Chen family, plus the land under the clan's name. Such tenant farmers are really huge. When the list of the intended person was sent to Chen Zhi, even he was a little surprised.

"There are so many thousands of people?" Looking at the list of dense names, Chen Zhi looked at Chen Jue again, "Can they be the staff specially arranged by several uncles after hearing about it?"

"No," Chen Jue shook his head, "This is still the result of screening. After the news of your desire to recruit servants, the whole clan was in full swing. Not to mention tenants, even the servants and servants of other governments were tempted. There were inquiries, regardless of age, young and old. We followed your instructions and removed the people who were too young and too old, and then chose those with good physiques to join."

Chen Zhi nodded, looked through the list again, and saw several familiar names, including the villagers of Zuozhai Village.

Chen Jue added: "You can rest assured that the people selected this time are all innocent, such as Xu Fang, who have ulterior motives, absolutely no one."

After experiencing the Xu Fang incident, the Chen family has been much stricter in managing the servants. After all, a servant with a lack of innocence can affect the entire family.

However, in the past, officials had loopholes. First, the family was huge and difficult to manage. Another important reason was that the Chen family declined, and all aspects of management declined. Now that Chen Zhi was rising and the Chen family in Pengcheng was revived, the rules and details were taken back again.

After putting down the list, Chen Zhi still said: "There are too many people, which is really surprising."

Chen Jue smiled and said, "Young Master, you don't know. You are in our Chen family, so who doesn't want to follow me? Originally, because our house was newly established, we were all servants and maids who were transferred from each house. There were not many people and the rules were chaotic. The younger one wanted to advise you to increase the number of people, but they didn't have the chance to mention it. Now that the news has been officially released, of course, all parties have come to vote."

Chen Zhi nodded and handed over the list: "There are not many servants recruited this time. You can estimate the inputs at home and see if you can free up rations for two hundred people."

"Two hundred people? Only two hundred people are recruited?" It is obvious that recruiting 200 servants is a bit small in Chen Jue's opinion.

In the cognition of this era, servants are not only servants who work, but also have a variety of divisions of labor. From Chen Zhi's explanation, Chen Jue could already hear that the servants his young master needed were more focused on armed protection.

This is normal. Thinking of Wang Mi's incident, it makes logical sense that Chen Zhi wanted to recruit servants to strengthen his strength. Moreover, the imperial court did not control the countryside enough, and the powerful gentry and clans made it possible for a large team of servants.

Many servants of large clans gather together to form an army.

Since the wars in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, tenants and tenants have gradually relied on the great family's origins and became disciples, and they have the reputation of being a servant, and do military affairs. However, their household registration and villages belong to large clans, and even the court has no reason to punish and pursue them is one of the guarantees of the authority of the aristocratic family.

The 200-person family ranks are not many of the various tribes in Pengcheng. Compared with the Peng family and Liu family, there are fewer people, but Chen Zhi only has one room, which is normal.

But after thinking about it, Chen Zhi said: "After we took over the Bai family's industry, the annual input has not been calculated, but the number is huge. You can only look at the number of people in the Bai family's hospital guards to know one or two. Only 200 people are selected. Isn't it a little short?"

"There are not many 200 people. I will give you a screening charter. If you follow the charter, select 200 from a thousand people, which is equivalent to picking one out of five people. It is not expensive to be more expensive. Build the team first. Once you have this foundation, it will be very easy to expand the team."

Seeing Chen Jue nodding, Chen Zhi nodded and said, "In addition, don't use the standards of ordinary servants to plan these 200 people. The food I mentioned must be mixed with meat, vegetables, and pasta, so that you can handle fullness and match it. This is enough. In addition, the money and food required for training, although there are only 200 people, the real investment is definitely a lot, and you have to prepare in advance."

Chen Jue nodded quickly to express his understanding, remembered all these, and asked again: "Young Master, you have bought all the medicinal materials you ordered before. Should you send them now? After all, your body is the most important thing."

Chen Zhi smiled a little and said, "I have bought it all? Then send it to the kitchen and decoct the medicine according to the prescription I gave." This was what he ordered when he was at Wingbing Tower.

The medicinal materials I bought were to recuperate and make up for the damage to muscles and bones in the battle with Wang Mi, and on the other hand, to make preparations for strengthening the body.

After Wang Mi's incident, Chen Zhi realized the necessity of his own force. Not to mention anything else, if he had some foundation at that time and cooperated with the Speed ​​Talisman, he might have been able to directly take down Wang Mi, saving all the later things.

In addition, after the boiled medicinal materials are diluted, they are actually useful. They can be used as medicinal food to supplement selected servants. Therefore, Chen Zhi told Chen Jue that the food rations of 200 people are also costly, so he can prepare mentally in advance.

When Chen Jueling left, Chen Zhi's sister Chen Man trotted in.

Wobing Tower was strictly guarded to prevent recurrence. The men came and went, which were not convenient for female relatives to visit. Chen Man hadn’t seen Chen Zhi for several days. When she heard that her brother had returned home, she came to visit him as soon as possible.

"Brother, I heard you are injured. Is it serious?" Chen Man looked worried when he came.

"It's nothing serious." Chen Zhi felt relieved when he saw his younger sister.

The little girl has a good meal recently and is no longer thin. Her face is rosy, her eyes are flashing, and she looks pretty and cute.

Chen Man looked up and down and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his brother was indeed intact. Although she was young, she knew that she could live a good life. Thanks to this elder brother, her mother emphasized it more than once, but compared to these, Chen Man paid more attention to Chen Zhi's care and love for him.

"That's good, brother, please pay attention to your health."

Chen Man doesn't understand the great truth, but she understands one thing very well. It is this fierce brother who used to be, now he is quite doting on himself, so he doesn't have much scruples when speaking in front of Chen Zhi.

After saying this, she sat on the chair without any ladylike temperament, and asked curiously: "Brother, you have destroyed a big thief outside this time, isn't it true?"

"Who did you hear?" Chen Zhi asked back, and he also wanted to know how it spread in the city.

Chen Zhi knew that the news that he scolded Wang Mi for committing suicide was not circulated on a large scale and was controlled within a range, but such news would not be suppressed for long and would sooner or later spread.

"It was said by the sisters who came to play." Chen Man picked up the fruit on the table and ate it, with a smile on her face, "Recently, sisters in the clan often come to me to play with, so they are very nice to me!"

The sisters Chen Man mentioned were the female relatives of each house of the Chen family. They were daughters in each house, but they rushed over and played with Chen Man regardless of their size. In order to compete for the status of playmates, they were intrigues and fought endlessly. Even Chen Zhi vaguely heard that a cousin was framed by his sister for the qualification of playmates and completely lost power. He cried all day long.

He let it go and did not pay attention to it. His only requirement was to strictly order the family to be in conflict and dark, and not to be exposed in front of Chen Man. Any disobedience should not be blamed for disregarding his brotherhood.

Because of this, in Chen Man's eyes, these sisters are kind playmates, living in happiness and happiness every day.

"Even the female family members who are waiting to be named after the boudoir know, the news is almost the same."

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Zhi asked again, but this time Chen Man was confused and didn't know the specific situation.

"I only know that Wang Mi died because of me, but I don't know the details, which means that the scolding was indeed suppressed, so it would save trouble." Chen Zhi figured out the general situation, so he stopped paying attention and said nothing with his sister.

Soon, a servant came with Zhao Xing's news, saying that in two days, Chen Zhi could be arranged to meet the captured thief.

"After you deserve your merits, this is efficient enough!"

With this idea, Chen Zhi planned the subsequent plan.

"Brother, you can do it first. I'll go find my second brother and the others."

When the younger sister Chen Man saw her, she knew that Chen Zhi had something to do, so she said goodbye well and jumped out.

Looking at the sister's departure, Chen Zhi felt warm in his heart, and he truly realized that he was carrying a family, at least a family.

"Maybe a family is a good choice. After all, since ancient times, the royal family has only been three or four hundred years, but the family can be passed down for thousands of years..."

Thinking of this, he concentrated on his mind and noticed that three grids of gold liquid were about to accumulate in the signboard.

"This time Wang Mi's incident will at least help to spread the name..."

Two days later, Zhao Xing's words came true. The one who was sent to pick up Chen Zhi was his acquaintance.

Travel Zhou Tian.

This Youzi had helped Chen Zhi once in the past, but this time he met, Zhou Tian did not dare to regard himself as an elder and was extremely respectful.

Chen Zhi immediately said, "Uncle Zhou, you have no politeness. If you have a close relationship with my second uncle, then you will be my elder."

"How can this be done? My nephew is now a famous scholar in Pengcheng. How can I do it?" That's what he said, and it was obvious that Chen Zhi was so polite to him. Zhou Tian felt that Bei'er was faced and had a thought jumped.

He didn't need to come forward to the scene, but because he wanted to ask Chen Zhi for help, he took the initiative to take on this job. Now, seeing that Chen Zhi is so easy to talk to, he was thinking about when to speak.

However, he knew that it was not the time yet, so he took Chen Zhi to prison first. After recognizing his identity, Zhou Tian asked again: "Let's go see the thief directly?"

Chen Zhi shook his head: "No, I heard that the thief's armor and weapons have been confiscated, so I will also put them here. I'll go and see these things first."

What do you think of these?

Zhou Tian was confused, but he thought Chen Zhi was just a whim, so he naturally would not object.
