It was still early before dinner time and there were not many people in the hall. Zhang Xuli ignored the waiter and wandered around the hall, staring at the sparse guests and looking at every table.
The waiter saw Zhang Xuli's appearance and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sir, what are you doing? If you want to eat, there is a seat over there."
"I'm looking for someone." Zhang Xuli said impatiently, stepping upstairs.
As soon as he saw Zhang Xuli walking upstairs, the waiter became even more anxious. He took three steps and two steps at a time to catch up with Zhang Xuli. He stretched out his hand to block Zhang Xuli's way and said, "Sir, you want to see downstairs." Just look, there are private rooms upstairs, so you can't look." There was a hint of anger in his tone.
Zhang Xuli stopped, stared at the waiter, and said, "I won't let you see it, right? It depends on whether you can stop him."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Xuli's figure flashed and he was already on the stairs. He quickly stepped on the stairs and ran upstairs. He pushed open the side box doors one by one along the aisle and visited every person in the box. There were bursts of shouting and cursing.
The waiter was shocked. He didn't expect Zhang Xuli to move so quickly, and shouted repeatedly: "No, hey, no." While chasing after him, he closed the box door and said "I'm sorry" by the way.
Zhang Xuli ran through the entire private room on the second floor and found no one worthy of attention. He stopped, clapped his hands again, and walked slowly down the stairs.
The waiter was out of breath and ran behind Zhang Xuli. When he saw Zhang Xuli stopped, he also stopped, bent down, put his hands on his knees, exhaled heavily, and stared at Zhang Xuli. Li Zhi shook his head, "You... what on earth... do you want to do?"
Zhang Xuli put on a smiling face and said cheerfully: "Eat downstairs. From now on, I will come here every day and you will give me a 20% discount as a regular customer."
Hearing Zhang Xuli's words, the waiter was on the verge of collapse. He shouted "Ah..." and said in pain: "Rogue, rascal..."
Zhang Xuli ignored the waiter and just walked to the hall downstairs. He sat down at a table near the door and faced the door. He shouted: "Waiter, hurry up, get some meat and wine. No vegetables. Please note all the money." Village chief Luo Feng."
As soon as he heard the name of Carrying Luo Feng, the waiter didn't dare to neglect, walked up quickly and said: "Okay, the meat and wine will be coming soon. You eat first, I will send someone to the village office to confirm immediately."
"Confirm?" Zhang Xuli stared blankly at the waiter and said, "Forget it, I'll pay for it myself to avoid being blamed by Luo Feng."
After saying that, Zhang Xuli sighed softly: "It's a loss. It's a big loss this time. I have to pay for food myself."
After the food and drinks were served, Zhang Xuli started eating by himself, staring at the door and looking at the passing guests.
A few days later, Luo Feng asked a soldier to summon Zhang Xuli in the office. Soon, Zhang Xuli appeared in front of Luo Feng.
Luo Feng put down the document in his hand and said, "Xuli, why haven't I heard from you in the past few days about recruiting heroes?"
Zhang Xuli had a look of injustice and grievance on his face, and almost cried: "Village Chief, you don't know, this job is not as good as you imagined. It is so tiring that you will collapse from exhaustion."
Zhang Xuli talked non-stop for half an hour and then continued: "Village Chief, you have to pay for meals yourself. This isn't fair."
Luo Feng said calmly: "I asked you to go to the tavern to find out the news, but I didn't ask you to go to dinner."
"How can you inquire about information if you don't eat?" Zhang Xuli said distressedly: "Village Chief, you don't know that if I don't order food, they won't let me sit down, and even if I drink water, they will charge me money. I have no choice. , in order to recruit heroes, we can only eat desperately."
Luo Feng laughed loudly, "You really do have me, you make a living every day, and you talk so nicely."
"Hehe, that's right." Zhang Xuli said with a smile, but felt something was wrong again, so he immediately put away his smile and said seriously: "I'm not just messing around."
Luo Feng organized the documents on the table and looked sad, "Adjutant Xing used to do it. Now that Adjutant Xing is gone, there is no suitable person to take over."
Seeing Luo Feng getting worried, Zhang Xuli followed and said, "Indeed, this strategic hero is really important. We only know how to fight and kill. The territory we conquered must be handed over to them for management."
Luo Feng sighed: "So, you have to hurry up and recruit all the heroes, whether strategic or combat type, to me."
"Okay," Zhang Xuli responded: "When it's dinner time, I'll go to Batty's Hotel to have a look, and I'll bring one over anyway."
"Come on," Luo Feng said, "You'd better do it slowly and don't drag ordinary villagers over."
"Don't worry, I know it." Zhang Xuli said and turned to leave Luo Feng's office.
At the training ground, Feng Ziying, Liu Zhen and Guan Pei were training newly recruited militiamen.
After Luo Feng left the office, he took Zhang Xinyi to the training ground. Watching Feng Ziying train over and over again, Luo Feng walked up.
Seeing Luo Feng coming, Feng Ziying said to Liu Zhen beside him: "You continue to train them."
"Yes." Liu Zhen responded, turned around and shouted to the militiamen below: "Keep practicing."
Feng Ziying walked up to Luo Feng and said, "Village chief, you are here."
"Well," Luo Feng asked, "When can these militiamen be trained into soldiers?"
"It's almost time," Feng Ziying said: "Now we have assigned the troops according to the weapons that each person is suitable for, and we are training intensively. By then, we should be able to train a sword battalion and a knife battalion."
"Okay," Luo Feng said, "I have worked hard these days. Once Xuli recruits strategic heroes, plans the development of the village and manages the village well, I want to attack the surrounding villages immediately and expand our territory."
"Okay, I'll practice hard and try to finish it as soon as possible." Feng Ziying said enthusiastically.
Zhang Xinyi said casually: "This is a breakthrough for us. We used to be militiamen, but now there are soldiers, and our combat power has been greatly improved."
"That's right," Luo Feng said, "Your red-robed team also needs to continue training, otherwise its combat effectiveness will not be much higher than those of those soldiers."
"That's right," Zhang Xinyi said proudly, "Everyone in my red-robed team will become senior spearmen, and their combat power will be much higher than that of junior soldiers."
"Well," Luo Feng responded and said to Feng Ziying, "You continue, Zhang Xinyi and I can walk around casually."
"Yes." Feng Ziying took Liu Zhen and Guan Pei to continue training the militia.
Zhang Xinyi followed Luo Feng and said while walking: "Village chief, my red robe team is too small. When can it be expanded?"
"It would be great to be able to expand," Luo Feng said, "but this woman's combat power is already small, and it's not easy to form a team. You just said that you want to train into a high-level spearman, and very few can be trained into it." .”
