Chapter 272: Some losses are enough, just suffer them once

Lian Shen's energetic words melted away in the cold wind, and there was no response from the open door for a long time.

Lian Shen raised his head and looked in the direction of the gate, kowtowed several times, "I implore the prince to return to the country and protect the mountains and rivers of Chu."

The sound of horse hooves tapping sounded, and a black horse spraying white mist walked out of the gate with his familiar figure.

Xiao Jin came to him and looked at him condescendingly, "Lian Shen."

"The end will be here."

"Where's the stuff?"

Lian Shen was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came back to his senses, gritted his teeth and took out half of the tiger talisman from his body, "I beg the prince to go back. After the battle, the emperor will definitely restore the prince's innocence."

Xiao Jin's dark eyes looked at the tiger talisman that was shining coldly, and half of it should be in the hands of the brave general.

The spear in his hand moved, he picked up the half piece of tiger talisman and took it into his hand.

"Walk."

Jiang Yang and others galloped out of the Tiger Camp and passed by Lian Shen.

The snowflakes kicked up by the horse's hooves splashed on Lian Shen's face, causing his face to hurt.

Lian Shen clenched his fists, stood up, got on his horse and chased after him.

After the group left, Mengzi and the others closed the door.

Zhou Xing looked at the departing team with doubts on his face, "Captain, didn't you say that King Qi collaborated with the enemy and treason? Why did you let him go back?"

Mengzi sneered, "These people who play with power have always been like this. When they think you are useful, they will kowtow and worship you. When they think you are a threat, they will suppress you endlessly."

"Isn't it dangerous for King Qi to go on this trip?" Even if he wins the battle, won't the king of Chu ever cross the river again and tear down the bridge?

"It's a bit of a loss, just take it once."

After Xiao Jin left, everything in Tiankui City remained as usual.

"City Lord, the chiefs of the major tribes want to see you."

"please."

The hall opened, and the chiefs of various tribes came in one after another.

When the group entered the inner hall, they gave Su Ying a salute of their own.

"No need to be polite, please take a seat."

Among these clan leaders, the one who had the most contact with Su Ying was clan leader Zhang of the Tarot tribe, so he was also represented when speaking.

Chief Zhang said: "Thank you very much, City Lord, for taking care of our clans during this period. You also handed over your enemies to us to avenge us. We will bear in mind the City Lord's great kindness."

He paused and continued: "Now that spring has begun, it is time to plant many medicinal materials. After some discussion, we still want to return to the original tribe to facilitate the planting of medicinal materials."

Su Ying listened to him quietly before speaking: "I respect your plan, but I just want to ask, if something like this happens again in the future, can you handle it? If the Li family is destroyed, wouldn't it be the same?

Is there a second one?"

Patriarch Zhang wondered: "But growing medicinal herbs has been the basis of our survival for many years. If we don't do it, how will we continue to survive? We can't always rely on the city lord's relief."

"My plan is that you allocate some people to continue planting medicinal materials, and the remaining old, weak, women and children can continue to settle in the city. They are safe, and you can work with more peace of mind. I only have two conditions. One, is

Everyone who lives here must register and abide by the rules and regulations of the city. Secondly, if the price of the medicinal materials you grow is the same as the price given by me, you must give priority to selling it to me."

Su Ying's words made the clan leaders of various tribes hesitate for a while. They had left their hometowns to live here during this period, but they didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Even though there were still tribesmen who missed the tribes in the past, they had to admit that the place where they lived now was more comfortable.

Safety.

They didn't have to worry about wild beasts attacking, they didn't have to worry about the heavy snow crushing the roof, and they didn't have to worry about foreigners bullying them. However, they were not sure what Su Ying meant, so they didn't dare to think too much.

Su Ying saw that they were interested and continued: "You have also seen that my city is very big and needs fresh blood. If you are willing to stay, I am very welcome."

"Soon, there will be streets for buying and selling in the city. By then, you only need to spend money to rent shops, allowing people in the city to do business, so you don't have to worry about lack of food and clothing."

Patriarch Zhang said excitedly: "Just like those countries?"

Su Ying nodded, "Yes, as long as you register your household registration, you will be a member of our Tiankui City from now on. Your children can read and write, and learn a life skill, giving them more possibilities in the future.

.”

"What's the use of reading and writing... to them..." Some clan leaders were puzzled and sincerely asked. Unlike people in those countries who can pass scientific examinations to become successful, what's the use of reading.

"Why it's useless." Su Ying took out a medical book and slapped it on the table. "You don't know how to read. Do you know what is written in this medical book? Do you know that there are many things recorded in the book that can change your life? Don't you know?

Do you just want your descendants to grow medicinal materials for a lifetime?"

Su Ying's words silenced them. It wasn't that they didn't want to, but they didn't dare to think about the future and ideals when they didn't even have enough to eat in the past.

"Now, there is an opportunity for you to change. It's up to you whether you cherish it or not."

"Here...are we no longer rootless people..."

"yes."

"We can also get shelter..."

"right."

"The Tarot tribe is willing to become the city lord's people." Chief Zhang was the first to kneel down.

"The Starfall tribe is also willing."

Gradually, more and more clan leaders knelt down.

Su Ying raised the corners of her lips lightly, Huwei and the others had finally settled them all properly, how could they be allowed to leave again.

"Everyone, please stand up. Next, I will explain to you the rules of Tiankui City."

Su Ying took out several booklets and asked Protector Green to read them out. These were the rules and regulations that had been written down at Tiger Camp.

Read out every item of the Green Protector. If you have any questions, you can raise them in public. If you don't accept them, just write them down and discuss them later.

At first, these clan leaders thought it was some kind of harsh system. Unexpectedly, upon closer inspection, many of these regulations were beneficial to them, at least to a large extent, they were a kind of protection.

"There are many more books in this book. In a moment, each of you will bring one back. Find someone in the clan who has read the book and let him spread it to all clan members. What I want is that everyone abides by the rules, without exception."

The clan chiefs took the booklet from Su Ying's hand one after another, "Don't worry, City Lord, we will make sure everyone is well aware of it."

"good."

After the clan leaders of each clan left, Wang Su walked in.

Xiao Jin took Jiang Yang and others away, leaving Wang Su and Zhao Neng to stay.

Before Zhao Neng could speak, he heard Zhu Lin shouting outside the palace: "Cousin-sister-in-law, cousin-in-law."
