Although the people of Yunzhou are a bit scheming, they can make the barbarian ancestors cooperate with them, and they were so arrogant when they came here. Of course, the strength of the people of Yunzhou cannot be weak.
He looked at Lu Chen carefully and found that Lu Chen had indeed heard his words, which made him nod with satisfaction.
"As long as you understand, the people of Yunzhou are different from us. All our men are brave warriors, but on the opposite side, they seem to be divided into civilians, businessmen, officials, and the army."
"Other classes, like the girl just now, are not very strong, but the Yunzhou army is definitely a strong enemy."
The whole nation is a soldier, and it looks beautiful, but when people without strict training gather together, they are nothing more than a mob.
Opposite Yunzhou, there are already professional troops. They are people who train every day and only focus on how to fight. Compared with the barbarians who hunt and train at the same time, those troops definitely have an advantage in killing.
"Whether it's the living conditions or the level of civilization, the other side is one level higher than the barbaric side."
"However, although the level of civilization is high, it has also given birth to too many idle people. Although the people of Yunzhou are smart, they have too many small thoughts."
The merchant girl was actually quite smart. At the beginning, she wanted to use a simple deception in exchange for the things in Lu Chen's hands. It can be said that she had succeeded. Even Li, she didn't react at the first time.
.
"I exchanged animal skins and scrap metal for a set of fine steel armor and an unsealed sword. I made a lot of money. Not even the clan leader has such steel weapons."
This is roughly what the barbarians think.
If Lu Chen didn't come from the 21st century, but was a native barbarian, the girl could really get what she wanted at a very small cost.
During this process, Lu Chen would also be grateful to the girl.
It's a pity that Lu Chen is not a barbarian.
Later, the transaction failed. The girl did not express her position, but showed an aggrieved expression and looked at the three young men next to her.
From Lu Chen's point of view, Yu Fei, who was the first to take action, could think of coaxing Lu Chen to take the initiative, not to mention the other two, and he was still somewhat scheming.
He should be able to see the girl's drive.
However, maybe it was love, or maybe he valued the girl's family background. Even if he knew about it, he still took action and wanted to solve it quickly.
When he asked Lu Chen to take action, he also formulated a strict plan. Letting Lu Chen take action was only the first step. After snatching the weapons from Lu Chen's hand, he also gave Lu Chen armor to prevent the barbarians from being dissatisfied.
I have to say, they did a lot.
However, they were full of scheming, but they never thought that Lu Chen was so strong and arrogant, which made them completely defeated.
As for Lu Chen, although he won, he still felt a headache thinking about the series of actions on the Yunzhou side.
"Sure enough, once a person is rich, he will have more thoughts. It is still simple for the barbarians. As long as you are strong, you can get enough respect. If you are dissatisfied, you will fight. There is no need for so many twists and turns."
"Forget it, I don't want to think about what happened in Yunzhou anymore. They will probably leave after the Strange Land incident is over. Then, I will be hunting in the wilderness, and they will be doing business outside. From now on, we will have nothing to do with it."
Thinking like this, Lu Chen thought that he would have no contact with Yunzhou from now on.
But just as he was thinking this, Lu actually said to Lu Chen: "Chen, this time the strange situation is over, you can come with us to the royal court."
"Hey, what am I going to do there?"
"What are you doing? The Royal Court is the largest tribe in our cattle totem. There are the strongest barbarian warriors there, a large number of combat skills, beauties donated by other tribes, and various decoctions. In the Royal Court, can you
Find everything you want, and only by going there can you become strong."
Lu Chen's blood boiled as he spoke, and Lu Chen also knew that if he were an ordinary barbarian, he would really have to go to the barbarian royal court in order to become powerful quickly.
After all, in terms of martial arts, combat skills, and various medicines, you can only get the best from the barbarian royal court.
However, Lu Chen is different from ordinary barbarians. His strength depends on the system, and in the system, only by fighting can you gain experience points and upgrade. Therefore, Lu Chen can only say sorry.
Of course, Lu Chen couldn't say this:
"General, I want to go too, but I'm worried about the village."
As soon as he said these words, both the clan leader and Wu Zhu laughed.
Wu Zhu, on the other hand, had a smile on his face and was even more pleased. He didn't know that Lu Chen wanted to stay here for the experience points, and thought that Lu Chen really cared about the village.
Therefore, he quickly said: "Achen, it is good that you care about the village, but if you go to the Royal Court, you will be stronger, and if you are strong in the Royal Court, our village will also benefit."
"What's going on? If we go to the royal court, wouldn't the village's defense be weak?"
"With you gone, the village's defense will indeed be weaker, but as long as the strange situation is removed, we can hold on for so many years, and we will be able to hold on in the future."
"Just hold on, what's the benefit?"
"The advantage is that if you go to the Royal Court and perform meritorious service in the Royal Court, the village will give us tax relief. If you are strong enough, the Royal Court will also reward us."
"tax."
When Lu Chen came to this world, it was the first time he thought about taxes.
However, he later realized that no matter where he was, powerful centralized organizations would collect taxes.
Moreover, the more backward the ancient times, the heavier the taxes.
Later, Wu Zhu's words confirmed Lu Chen's guess.
"The Royal Court protects us. When we encounter an unstoppable disaster, we can call for help and the people from the Royal Court will come to support us."
"At the same time, the Royal Court also helps us resist Yunzhou people and other evil spirits, but the Royal Court also needs our support."
"Then why did our village, in the past..."
Having said this, Lu Chen paused and looked at the man next to him. He already understood something.
The clan leader also said: "You have thought about it. Sure enough, you are the smartest one in our Manniu Village."
"No one from our village has come to collect taxes for a long time. There are dogs in the royal court. Our village has only been here for so many years and there is no need for worship. Therefore, although we are poorer every year, people starve to death rarely."
Of course, Lu Chen understood this. Just like in the ancient days of the Celestial Dynasty, because scholars were supreme, those who had achieved academic status did not need to pay taxes.
But now, they are the barbarians who are supreme in force. With a strong man like Liu, they can certainly protect the village.
However, then, Li also spoke: "Old Wu, you're welcome. The village gives me a lot of support every year."
"It's still missing. Our village is too small to support you!"
"This is because the village no longer contributes to the royal court, but it still provides a lot of resources to the pigeons every year. I asked why the village has not expanded without tax revenue. It turns out that the pigeons took away part of it.
"
Listening to the conversation between Wu Zhu and Xiu, Lu Chen thought of this inexplicably.
However, although the pig took away part of it, Lu Chen still recognized its role in the village.
First of all, what the wolf takes should be less than what is supplied to the royal court. Secondly, when the village is in danger, the powerful wolf will come to support with all its heart, which is really useful.
Although he was criticized by the girl on the Sky Whale, he just hesitated at the time. Without Lu Chen, the chance of him coming down was still very high.
Moreover, compared to others, Lu is pretty good.
After all, he has left the village for a long time. Now, the Royal Court is his home. There is his family there and brothers who fight with him. He can fight for Manniu Village and cannot ask too much of him.
If you think about how many banana people there are in modern times, you will know how precious the situation of the tiger is.
After knowing that a strong person can be useful in the royal court and the village.
Lu Chen knew that what he said just now was no longer true, but he still didn't want to go to the Royal Court. After all, the Royal Court was powerful, but because of its power, there was probably no evil around it.
But Lu Chen needs evil spirits to grow quickly.
However, this time, Lu Chen did not refuse in a hurry, but looked at Liu and asked: "General, is there a battle in the royal court?"
