Where do you choose to play? Is there such a good thing in the world?

Xiao Mazi was so surprised that he quickly rubbed his chin and began to think seriously. This made the uncles and gentlemen behind him stamp their feet anxiously.

You brat, what else are you thinking about? Of course you choose Beixi Qingqi!

Playing for Beixi Qingqi is equivalent to stepping into Beixi County. When you retire in the future, you will become a citizen of Beixi County. This is a good thing to reach the sky in one step.

You know, being an ordinary citizen in Beixi County is more comfortable than being a landlord in the south.

The old man was afraid that the little Mazi would miss out on the good fortune he had gained over the past few lives. In his anxiety, he simply stepped forward, pushed the little Mazi away, and shouted to Qin Feng: "Your Majesty, let the little Mazi go to Beixi Qingqi." .”

"I heard that Beixi County treats people generously. Little Mazi has no relatives. When he arrives in Beixi County, he will not be bullied."

"If you follow the Forbidden Army or go to the Central Plains, you won't have any wealth at all. Once you get there, you will have a miserable life of being bullied and trampled on."

The people around him were simply more anxious than Xiao Mazi.

They all agreed: "You're right, let little Mazi go to Beixi."

"Little Mazi, what are you still doing? You're a piece of shit. Kowtow to the prince and ask him to transfer you to Beixi Qingqi."

"It's just that if you don't seize such a good opportunity, your grandfather and father will be angry with you."

These villagers said anything in a hurry. It was clear that Xiao Mazi's family members were still dead, but when they cursed, they were unambiguous.

But they all have good intentions and no one cares.

At first, Xiao Mazi felt that his life was ruined, but in the blink of an eye, he was about to defect to Qin Feng.

Happiness came so suddenly. Xiao Mazi scratched his head and giggled: "I...I don't know where to go. In short...I will go wherever the prince goes."

"I want to follow the prince."

hiss……

The villagers present all gasped, thinking that this brat was really stupid, so his seemingly silly answer was actually the best answer.

Even Qin Feng burst out laughing on the spot. He touched Xiao Mazi's head and said with appreciation: "Well said, since you want to follow me, then start with the basics."

"This time I return to the front line, you will come back with me and start working in the logistics of Beixi Qingqi. It will be just some menial and backbreaking work, just consider it as a training experience."

Speaking of this, Qin Feng waved, called a cavalryman, took the opponent's bow and arrow, and handed it to Xiao Mazi.

"This set of bows and arrows is given to you. When you can draw the bow and shoot through the trees with a hundred steps, you will be qualified to become my king's personal guard."

"As long as you are willing to work hard, there will never be any restrictions on your future. You can be promoted to logistics, light cavalry, expedition brigade or even Tianji battalion guards."

In order to prove that he was not fooling the children, Qin Feng waved his hand at the deputy lieutenant who was accompanying him: "Introduce yourself."

The deputy lieutenant held his head high and his chest high, very proud.

"In Xia Sun Erhe, I was a refugee fleeing famine. After I arrived in Beixi County, I had to be taken in by the prince so that I wouldn't starve to death."

"I participated in the defense battle of Beixi County, the border army support battle, and the battle in Beidi, seven or eight battles, large and small."

"From the initial refugee, he has now become a deputy lieutenant of the Beixi Expeditionary Brigade, leading more than 300 light cavalry under his command."

"The monthly salary is three taels of silver."

"In addition, my wife can earn one tael of silver per month."

"The whole family, young and old, can make a lot of money. In one year, they can earn fifty taels of silver and have a balance of more than thirty taels."

After hearing the deputy lieutenant's words, the villagers at the scene were completely excited.

They couldn't believe their ears, and their eyes changed again and again when they looked at the deputy lieutenant's forehead.

"What? You can make fifty taels of silver a year? You must be joking. Even the landlords here can't make so much money in a year."

"The landowner's entire wealth is only a few hundred taels of silver. You, a soldier and only a deputy lieutenant, can earn a landlord's wealth in just a few years?"

"Oh my gosh, being a soldier in Beixi County is so rich."

"Wait a minute, what did you just say? You earn fifty taels of silver and have a balance of more than thirty taels. In other words, your family spends more than a dozen taels of silver a year?!"

Ordinary people's annual expenses are only one tael of silver.

The expenses amounted to more than ten taels of silver, leading to a proper landlord life.

They knew that life in Beixi County was extremely affluent, but they did not expect that it was so wealthy that the life of an ordinary deputy lieutenant was as good as that of a landlord.

Everyone was shocked and envious. If Xiao Mazi could hold an official position in the army, he would be very successful.

This is the precious opportunity that Lao Ma's family risked their lives to buy for Little Mazi.

For Xiao Mazi, a few hundred pennies was a huge sum of money. He was not actually clear about the concept of dozens of taels of silver.

But one thing is certain, that is, by following Qin Feng, you have already won at the starting line. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely honor your ancestors in the future.

The strong men of Maguan Village, with extremely hot eyes, either rushed up on their own, or were driven up by the women at home.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people were surrounding Qin Feng, nervous and expecting.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, can we also go to Beixi County to serve?"

"If Beixi County is still short of people in logistics, we have plenty of strength, and we have served in the military before, so there is no need for training."

Qin Feng may only come to Maguan Village once in his life, and no one is willing to let go of the blessings he has gained over the past few lives.

As long as one can join the Beixi Army and serve, it will be regarded as a success. If one person can ascend to heaven, the whole family will be prosperous in this life.

Qin Feng pressed his hand, signaling everyone not to get too excited.

"Beixi County, and even the entire northern border, has enough military manpower."

"The days when Beixi County accepted all orders as ordered have long passed. Now the conditions for recruiting soldiers and horses are extremely strict. In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of Beixi soldiers and horses, only qualified and strong men are recruited, and once they surrender to the army, they must serve continuously. Until retirement.”

"Beixi County only needs professional soldiers, not field soldiers."

"Moreover, Maguan Village has just suffered a catastrophe. So many men have died. If you leave again, what will happen to the women and children in the village?"

"Not to mention the bandits coming to loot, spring plowing is about to begin, and there are no laborers to work. How can we expect women and children to plow the fields?"

Seeing the disappointment on everyone's faces, Qin Feng thought for a moment and decided to be a little more accommodating.

After all, villages like Maguan Village with a tradition of surrendering to the army should be given special care.

Qin Feng collected some scattered silver and gave two taels to each household in Maguan Village.

"You can take these two taels of silver to supplement your family's income, lest the family's breadwinner is gone and life becomes difficult."

"If the men in the village still want to join the army, you can wait until the spring plowing is over and then go to Beixi County to accept the recruitment."

"When the time comes, just say that I am from Maguan Village, and I will naturally accommodate you."
