Chapter 38 Win the hearts of the people! Loyalty comes first!
Now that Lin Chong is sitting at the top of Liangshan Mountain, it can be said that he has all the hearts and minds, and it is time to show off his talents.
There are thousands of people under his command, and all their food, drink, and toilets are under his control.
A stable source of income is not enough just by robbing families and homes.
If Liangshan wants to develop, it must capture all the surrounding counties, counties, and even some manors. This is the first step of development. Collecting commercial taxes and vigorously developing commerce are the fastest ways to generate money.
There were so many things to do, and they were all intricate. If he thought about it carefully, he would feel that there was a huge burden on him.
However, it was useless to be anxious. Lin Chong had no regrets and was full of energy.
When Heaven is about to entrust this person with a great responsibility, he must first strain his mind and will, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, deplete his body, and mess up his actions. Therefore, tempting his heart and forbearance will benefit him beyond his ability.
Since I have to live my life again in this life, I will never look like a cowardly and ugly leopard!
Lin Chong conveniently took out three sets of heavy armor from the bonus space.
These three sets of heavy armor are additional rewards from previously completed missions.
Such heavy armor, placed in Liangshan, can be said to be a peerless treasure.
Even for ordinary generals, if they encounter such excellent quality armor, they will definitely keep it as a family heirloom and pass it down from generation to generation, which shows how precious this kind of armor is.
Lin Chong took a closer look and found that his eyesight was extraordinary, he could see clearly at a glance.
These three sets of heavy armor, combined with ordinary weapons, cannot break through the defense at all. It would be great if there were thousands of sets.
"Dong dong dong!"
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door.
"Master, I am Zhu Gui, and there are several village owners who have come to pay their respects."
Lin Chong put down the map in his hand, took out a piece of gauze from the side, covered his armor, and said loudly: "You just come in, you are so polite."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Gui and others rushed into the room, rubbing their hands one by one without saying anything.
"Tell me? What are you looking for? They are all as shy as girls." Lin Chong picked up the herbal tea on the table and took a few sips and asked.
The three people looked at each other, you pushed me, I pushed you. After a while, Zhu Gui was pushed to the front by Du Qian and Song Wan.
Zhu Gui mustered up his courage and said, "Brother, the three of us have an unkind request. If I say something wrong, please don't blame me."
Lin Chong laughed loudly: "The three of you are all warriors, what's wrong with you now? When you talk, you are very polite. If you have something to say, you will say it, and if you have something to say, you will fart!"
When the three of them heard this, they all laughed, and most of their nervousness immediately dissipated.
Zhu Gui said flatteringly: "Brother, those light armors today are extremely well-made. I and the heads of the family are all very coveted and want to ask brother to let us join the Chongzi camp and get a set to wear!"
Lin Chong was stunned for a moment, then laughed dumbly and said: "Is this why you three are here?"
"Right? We will also train well and we will not be worse than them."
It was Zhu Gui's turn to wonder, is it such a big deal? Is it not a big deal?
They had seen the light armor before. It was extremely exquisite in workmanship and had amazing protective power. It was also very light and did not feel heavy when worn on the body.
Comparing the two, the armor they wore before was just a pile of rags. The three of them were too embarrassed to ask for it, so they had to find an excuse to look for Brother Lin Chong.
Lin Chong snorted. The three people's talk of joining the Chongzi camp was clearly an excuse.
"Do you really want armor?" Lin Chong looked around and asked deliberately.
"Yes, I'm going to cry just thinking about it!" Zhu Gui and the other three nodded in succession, with their eager eyes, it was so fun.
Lin Chong raised his hand, lifted the gauze, and asked, "You three, come here and see what this is?"
Zhu Gui and the other two people looked along. It would have been better if they didn't look at it. But when they saw it, they were all shocked!
"Heavy armor!"
"All steel heavy armor!"
"Plate armor! Full body armor!"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Brother, there is such a treasure!"
"I'm so hungry."
............
"How is it? Do you like it?" Lin Chong smiled half-heartedly.
As a warrior who licks blood with his sword, good armor is his second life.
Now on the table, there were three sets of jet-black heavy armor lying quietly, and they were mostly half-body armor.
Zhu Gui and the other three were so excited that they could not speak coherently, and their eyes almost popped out.
"Brother, this...this...this heavy armor is so beautiful."
"I like it, I like it so much. I have always wanted to get a set of heavy armor in my life! It's a pity that I never had the chance."
"Brother, can you lend me to wear it for a few days? It only takes three days, so I can feel it. At least it has fulfilled my dream."
…
"Look at what you three can do." Lin Chong cursed with a smile, but his heart felt sour.
Why is it easier for regular imperial troops to defeat bandits? Apart from the gap in force, the most important thing is the gap in armaments.
Up and down Liangshan, there are very few armored soldiers who are qualified to wear armor.
Without armor to protect yourself, the probability of injury is high.
"Three sets of heavy armor are prepared for the three of you. Each of you has one set. This kind of heavy armor is extremely difficult for ordinary weapons to break through. After you put it on, you will fight in the killing field. Don't let me down.
." Lin Chong said as he walked behind the three of them, raised his hands, and touched their backs respectively.
Zhu Gui and others were surprised and happy, and said in disbelief: "Brother, are you really going to give this kind of heirloom armor to us?"
"Of course! I, Lin Chong, will do what I say, and you are all my confidants. If someone comes to attack others without even wearing armor, wouldn't it mean that Liangshan loses face?" Lin Chong said righteously.
Zhu Gui, Du Qian, and Song Wan all felt that happiness was falling from the sky. When they came, they were all uneasy, just to ask for a set of light armor!
What now?
My brother actually gave each of them a set of heavy armor!
The most important thing is that the word "confidant" spoken from his brother's mouth made the three of them extremely happy.
Zhu Gui was so excited that he immediately knelt down on one leg. The two people behind him knelt down quickly and said quickly:
"Brother's kindness, I can't repay. From now on, if my brother asks me to go east, we will never go west!"
"Brother Renyi always considers us. I, Song Wan, swear here that if one day I betray my brother Liangshan and Lin Chong, I will be struck by thunder and die!"
"You two have taken away all my words, what are you going to say to me?" Du Qian was spinning in circles, blowing his beard and glaring in anger.
…
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Everyone burst out laughing, becoming more familiar and friendly with each other, and their feelings sublimated a lot without realizing it.
"Ding! Zhu Gui is loyal 1"
"Ding! Du Qian is loyal 1"
"Ding! Song Wanzhong 1"
...
Good guy!
Is this okay?
The loyalty of these three people is very high. The further they go to the back, the harder it is to increase their loyalty. They don't want to give away heavy armor and gain such benefits.
In this era, loyalty is paramount.
He was not just a boy who gave away the heavy armor. The main thing was that nothing happened to these three people. If there was a big battle, with the heavy armor protecting him, he would have a chance to come back alive.
"It's just that after the armor is taken down, my brother also has requirements for you." Lin Chong's expression calmed down, and he was about to get down to business.
The three village leaders immediately straightened their backs, clasped their fists and said: "But please speak to me, brother, I will go up to the mountain of knives and go down to the sea of fire, and we will get it done."
"Last time, Gao Qiu sent Wang He to sneak attack me, and finally let the guy escape. Brother Zhu, you'd better investigate the news about this guy. I'm just worried that the guy is still evil, so don't be careless." Lin Chong said seriously.
said.
"I will step up inspections later."
Lin Chong suddenly asked: "Zhu Gui, what is the origin of those two girls who serve me?"
Zhu Gui was stunned and said quickly: "Brother, are they not serving you well? If not, I will send them away tonight."
"You reckless man, forget it, I'll ask you questions later."
Song Wan raised his hand and said: "In our eight hundred miles of water, there are always some outsiders fishing. I plan to drive them all away with brother Du Qian and stop fishing indiscriminately."
Lin Chong nodded and said: "Of course we have the final say on our territory!"
Having said this, an idea came into his mind.
The three heroes of the Ruan family!
It seems to be around here too!
"We can't let Chao Gai take the lead!"
