Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, nine years of astronomy have passed, and ten years of astronomy have arrived.

On New Year's Eve, according to Zhengliang's order, an annual New Year's Eve banquet was held in the residence of the Lord of the Luo family.

Almost all the Luo family members were invited and brought their families to the lord's mansion. Even the families of Tsuda Hirozo, Heisa Masato and others who died in battle were invited. Samurai and Fooji who had various tasks were also rewarded to varying degrees, and everyone had a delicious meal.

In the evening, the lord's mansion was already crowded with people. The lord's mansion was enough to accommodate hundreds of people at the same time to sit down. The front position was left for a sect and the general, and then the second row was the general, and the last row was the third row.

At this time, many retainers had already sat down according to the arranged position.

"Brother Masaru?" A scream suddenly came from the crowd. It turned out that it was Yoshida Shigemasa who had no family yet.

"Brother Shigemasa" Kinoshita Masato, who had just walked into the meeting hall, immediately walked over happily.

"I finally saw you." Yoshida Shigemasa was also very happy. After becoming a capable retainer of the Luo family, the two were assigned to their respective responsibilities and then went their separate ways. Now they finally had the opportunity to meet each other.

"How, are you doing well over there?" Kinisha Masato asked immediately after sitting down. His position happened to be next to Yoshida Shigemasa.

"Haha" Yoshida Shigemasa smiled when he heard this, "I didn't expect that my footlight training method was so strange. It really opened my eyes."

"Oh? The team on your side has also started training?" Kinoshita Masato asked immediately.

"Yes, since I am on the front line of the territory, I will give priority to my team. Now the new football team has started training under the guidance of the old football team," Yoshida Shigemasa replied with a smile.

"Hey, you have to wait a few more ri to start replenishing people," Kinoshita Masato complained immediately.

"Brother Masaru doesn't need to be anxious. I heard yesterday that another batch of new football training camp has completed the preliminary training. I believe that I will replenish your staff soon," Yoshida Shigemasa immediately whispered. (.)

"I hope so," Kinoshita Masaru nodded.

Amid the conversation, the retainers gradually arrived. After everyone sat in their seats, Bukit, the Xiao surnamed Murakami who was standing at the door, shouted. Everyone immediately calmed down.

"Ding, ding, ding" Masayora walked in first in a brand new kimono. Behind him were family members of Togo Kiku, Tsuki, Tsuki and Matsumiko. Togo Kiku has been pregnant for more than two months, but his belly has not yet appeared. Even so, she has become the focus of care. Tsuki and Tsuki are holding her carefully, afraid that she will trip over accidentally. It is the first time that the little guy, Ta Miko, has attended such an important family dinner, and her little head is constantly looking around, as if looking for something fun.

"I've been very lucky this year! I, Zhengliang, of Luo, expressed my sincere thanks to you." Zhengliang sat on the main position of Zhengyāng. He said first.

"I am willing to do my best for the Luo family," Dongxiang Heiji took the lead. He watched with his own eyes the young head of the family lead everyone from a small village that was bullied by bandits to a powerful man with high income from Five Stones. This process took less than a year.

After Heiji Togo took the lead in expressing his statement, the retainers around him also expressed their intention of swearing to die.

Zhengliang took advantage of the fact that everyone was leaning over to express his loyalty and looked at the retainers below.

Sitting beside Masara's family were Masara's family, and sitting with them was Tsuda Hirozo and Masata Hirosa's widow. The three-year-old Naoshima of Guoshi was also sitting there. The little surname Yoshinomaru and Bukit Murakami knelt behind Masara.

Directly opposite Masara, sitting in the first row were Togo Heiji, Yukisuke's position, and then the general Osaki Kyoshi. Next to Osaki Kyoshi were the family of the lonely Nobusuke Akaba and Kakukuma Shisong.

Although Kakukuma Ishisong was sitting there, he looked helpless. Why? Because he only realized that he had "resigned" from his position as a retainer in the Otomo family and then changed to the Luo family. After learning the news, Kakuma Ishisong was furious and found Masara Theory. Masara knew that he had done something wrong, so he also advised him with kind words.

Fortunately, Kakukuma Ishisect was also a reasonable person. After learning that things were irreversible, Kakuma Ishisect was forced to become a retainer of the Luo family.

Sitting in the second row were the Ming Dynasty's aide Liu Le, the leader of the black hawk, the leader of the black hawk, the general Kinoshita Masaru, the general Yoshida Shimasato, the general and physician Hidemasato, the general Oshima Tomohisa, the general Oshima Tomohisa, the general Oshima Tomohisa, the general Oshima Tomohisa, the general Oshima Tomohisa, the general Oshima Tomohisa, the general Oshima Tomohisa, the general Oshima Tomoda, the general Oshima Aguda, the general Iron cannon and firearm craftsman Ander, the general Oshima Sun Goro, the general Hona Tongzhuo, the general Murakami, and the general Noda Ichibing.

The last row are Sasuke, Masahiro of the Junmufu, Masahiro of the Junmufu, Shingoro of the Junmufu, Aoshiro of the public, Kiyoshi of the public, Duanmufu, Kiyoshi of the public, Duanmufu; Nobumoto of the Aoyama and Li Hongfei who are responsible for assisting in the internal affairs; Hida Masahiro who is responsible for protecting Masara, Masahiro Ueda, Tsuna Tsuna, Tetsuguchi, and Yoshira Nobuke of the other two, and this time, two more people are added, namely Kato Tatsuzo and his nephew Ahri.

The last time he was recruited as a retainer by Masara, Kato Duanzang finally found his nephew Ali with the help of the Luo family's power. It turned out that Ali fled into the territory of the Luo family after being injured, and eventually fell into a coma on the road. He was rescued by a member of the Luo family's family. When he woke up, he lost his memory due to his severe head injury and had to stay in the territory of the Luo family for a while. Later, he was finally found by Kato Duanzang. Kato Duanzang also abides by the agreement with Masara and stayed in the Luo family and became a retainer of the Luo family.

It seemed that something was missing? After Zhengliang glanced at all his retainers, he suddenly felt that something was missing.

Ah, when I think about it, there seemed to be a few missing Southern Barbarians. I don’t know what happened to Zhu Qinfeng and Zuo Moyang. Not long after the war against the Boduo family, Zhu Qinfeng and Zuo Moyang officially submitted their resignation to Zhengliang. After Zhengliang tried to keep them, he also said goodbye to the two of them. Of course, when the two left, Zhu Qinfeng’s ship was filled with the Luo family’s cargo, including a lot of gold and silver. Zhengliang not only purchased ten additional mesh rope guns, but also reached a secret agreement with the two. It was said that both sides were very happy.

"Okay, okay, okay." Seeing the loyalty of the retainers, Zhengliang was very happy and signaled everyone to waive the gifts. After saying, "This year, with your concerted efforts, our family has achieved great development and has defeated the Huzi family and the Boduo family, we will definitely not treat those who have made meritorious people."

When everyone heard Zhengliang's words, they immediately listened quietly. They knew that the head of the family was preparing to reward him according to his merits.

"Heiji Donggo!"

"The ministers are here" Donggo Heiji immediately stepped out of the line and came to Masayora.

"I will leave the western part of the Matsuura Peninsula to you. I will take care of it for me. I will be awarded the Lord of the Ukura Castle and be my general." Masara said. Masara's words are equivalent to enfeoffing the territory between the mountains east of No Takayama to Hiraji Toyogo, and also promoted Hiraji Toyogo from General of the Attorney to the general. Of course, since there is already a fief reward, his salary has not been increased.

Zhengliang's current feudal policy is a bit different from other powerful people. As the lord of the territory to be enfeoffed, first, it is stipulated that the total number of entourages including retainers, attendants, and peasants shall not exceed fifteen; secondly, the lord can only manage his own territory according to the laws of the territory and shall not issue any laws other than the regulations of the territory; finally, the lord is responsible for leading the village heads of each village to manage the territory, and can withdraw tens of one of the income from the territory every year as his own knowledge and action.

Zhengliang's policies are equivalent to arranging local officials responsible for coordinating the enfeoffed territory, responsible for leading the village heads of each village to manage the government and agricultural affairs of the territory. Assist the departments directly under the territory to conduct regular military training for the territorial people, but they do not have the right to mobilize peasants and soldiers. Only after the lord is given the order can the peasants be mobilized. They have no right to interfere in the allocation of the permanent territorial troop.

As for the income of the lords of the feudal lords, according to the current average tax revenue of four rural and six public officials in the territory, 40% of the income is left to the lords of the lords of the territory. After the Luo family collected the remaining 60% of the income, 10% of them were left to the lords of the territory as knowledge and action, and the remaining 50% were re-invested in the construction of the territory and military construction, and the benefits were fed back to the lords of the lords of the territory. This practice not only accelerated the progress of the construction of the territory, but also stimulated the lords of the lords of the lords of the lords of the lords to increase their efforts to build the territory. After all, the more the territory's income, the more his income he had.

Zhengliang did this, which was equivalent to gradually separating the internal power from the military power, and the internal power was divided and handed over to each retainer to form a three-level management system at the bottom, local and zhongyāng; while military power was completely controlled by the head of the family, and each lord of the feudal lord only maintained the military force to maintain its own security. With the quota of fifteen people, retainers with good family background could recruit fifteen warriors, and those with poor family background could recruit fifteen peasant soldiers. The richness of these retainers was related to the degree of wealth of their respective territories.

"Do you dare not do your best?" Dongxiang Heiji said gratefully when he heard that he was enfeoffed territory. You should know that the place Masaliang gave him is the earliest territory mastered by the Luo family. The degree of implementation of territory laws is the most profound. Although the population is still a little small and not very rich, it has huge development potential. Moreover, he also saw the intention of the head of the family. First, he hoped to accelerate the development there, and second, he hoped to protect the head of the head of the head of the head of the head of the head from the east to the east.
