They say your illegitimate child is worthless, yet you rebel with seven wives?

In seven days, Xiaoyun Village received a total of 500 new recruits!

The number of combat personnel suddenly surged to six or seven hundred, greatly increasing their strength!

This is not the limit for the surrounding area, but the limit that Xiaoyun Village can cultivate with its existing resources!

Of the two hundred people recruited earlier, half have already gone to Langya Mountain. Although they have not yet become elites, they are already capable of fighting.

Especially the Si family's thirty-odd members, even excluding Ye Hu and Zhang Daqiang, have all become extremely strong in individual combat.

Under Su Luo's modern military training methods, their combat effectiveness is absolutely no weaker than that of the Marquis's personal guards.

Especially when combined with a composite crossbow, it is even stronger than the Marquis's personal guards!

According to Ye Hu, these troops are already on par with the true elite forces of the Great Xia Dynasty!

However, Su Luo was still not satisfied with it, feeling that its potential had not been fully unleashed!

The training time was still too short!

Afterwards, Su Luo personally stepped forward and, after reviewing the training levels and intensity of everyone, categorized his subordinates into different levels.

The highest rank, naturally, belongs to Su Luo.

Secondly, there are the leaders, such as Ye Hu and Zhang Daqiang, as well as some outstanding individuals in the training, such as Tang Erniu.

Currently, Ye Hu is the Grand Commander and has the authority to lead everyone.

Zhang Daqiang and Tang Erniu were both junior commanders, but their subordinates were different. Zhang Daqiang led a hundred men stationed at Langya Mountain, and his men were all elites trained in the first batch, as well as a small number of people from the Si family.

He can be said to be the most outstanding fighter under Su Luo.

The equipment is also top-notch.

Tang Erniu, on the other hand, brought a group of people recruited last time. Although they were capable of fighting, they could only be described as ordinary.

The remaining commanders, along with the five hundred newly arrived men, continued their training in the valleys of Dayun Mountain.

Even among ordinary people, Su Luo was divided into different levels.

Those under Zhang Daqiang's command are privates first class, those under Tang Erniu's command are privates second class, and the new recruits are rookie privates third class.

It was a very rudimentary ranking system, but as long as one was promoted, not only would their salary increase, but their daily meals would also improve.

This gives everyone a sense of purpose, and they train with incredible energy.

Furthermore, if one becomes the leader... one even has the right to bring one's family to live in Xiaoyun Village.

For the people of Daxia to move to a different place to live, it was actually a very troublesome matter.

But Su Luo said in front of everyone that he could solve the problem, which made some outsiders admire him even more.

In seven days, Su Luo forged the hundred-refined steel here, and this ranking system has been fully implemented.

Ye Hu was initially worried that if these systems were implemented, Su Luo's intention to rebel would become even more obvious...

This will give them leverage against us!

But Su Luo didn't care. If villagers from the surrounding area wanted to report it, then let them report it and expose it!

Let's see if those officials will take it seriously!

A bunch of country bumpkins from the village, trying to rebel? You're here to expose them, are you just trying to scam a reward?!

Let's go mining!

This is Yunhai Town under the rule of the Xie family!

“This is refined steel…” Su Luo picked up a piece of refined steel, his eyes gleaming.

Next to him was a canvas covered with numbers. Of course, no one else could understand what these numbers meant, but Su Luo understood that he had finally come up with the right formula!

This kind of refined steel already resembles the first generation of alloys. It is not only lighter but also harder, and it makes weapons even sharper!

Shen Laosan, who was watching this scene from the side, gasped upon hearing this: "Young Master, what's wrong with your brain?!"

"This iron ore can actually be used to make this stuff?!"

"If we really follow the son-in-law's idea and use this refined steel to forge the armor, it will not only be more protective, but also lighter!"

"Their weaponry is even more advanced than that of the Great Xia military!"

Shen Laosan was incredibly excited, repeatedly saying, "That's amazing! It's really amazing!"

"Son-in-law, you're amazing!"

Su Luo smiled and said, "Uncle Shen, don't flatter me. Although I've figured out the formula, whether we can mass-produce it depends on you!"

During this time, Su Luo discovered that it was a real waste of Shen Laosan's talent to have him manage the accounts for the Ye family before...

Being in your forties is the perfect time to learn!

This Shen Laosan plays a significant role in the workshop, and he's also quite clever!

Every time Su Luo creates something, others are slow to react, but Shen Laosan can quickly grasp it.

Furthermore, he was adept at making things organized and understandable to others in the workshop.

Simply put, it means not only having R&D capabilities, but also management capabilities!

Su Luo was much more relaxed after handing the workshop over to him, leaving most of the work to Shen Laosan!

It's fair to say that the Si family guards that Si Mingyu brought were a real treasure!

Ye Hu is calm and composed, and is capable of being the commander-in-chief of the army, which is essentially the chief of staff; to put it more politely, he is a brilliant strategist.

Zhang Daqiang is both reckless and meticulous, and possesses exceptional physical abilities; he is capable of becoming a general.

Shen Laosan looks ordinary, but Su Luo has actually developed... this guy is a science prodigy?!

What surprised Su Luo even more was that Shen Laosan had a strange love for these things!

Not at all pedantic!

Old Man Shen nodded. "Son-in-law, don't worry, leave everything to me!"

"Within three months, I can equip every private with a longsword made of tempered steel..."

Su Luo smiled and said, "Don't talk big. There are only 117 privates first class now, but that may not be the case in three months!"

Although Su Luo now has a total of seven hundred people under his command.

With proper training, they could easily establish themselves as a force in Yunhai Town.

We might even be able to challenge Cloudsea Town!

However, Su Luo knew this was not the end; he still needed to continue developing!

What is Yunhai Town? Above it is Feiyun City!

Feiyun City is merely one of the four cities of Linshui County, not to mention Qingzhou, which is even higher...

Su Luo shook his head, got up, picked up Ye Changfeng's handwritten letter, and walked out of the workshop.

The sky was high and the clouds were light; it was a clear and sunny day.

Ye Changfeng's handwriting was incredibly upright, looking just like the calligraphy copybooks Su Luo had seen in her previous life, yet there were always subtle variations in the strokes.

Your handwriting reflects your personality!

He looks upright, but actually... he has a lot on his mind!

As expected, Ye Changfeng said at the beginning of his letter that he was willing to agree to Su Luo's request, but Su Luo had to provide enough glass!

He needs to produce at least one hundred items a month; only in this way can he quickly accumulate a large amount of wealth!

The Ye family controls the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce and is incredibly wealthy. The struggle among their descendants is based on who makes the most money to determine their status!

Su Luo smiled; this was no problem for him!

What's a hundred pieces of glass?!

Isn't it just glass made from a pile of sand? It's just a bit more complicated to shape it into various forms!

But 100 pieces a month? 1000 pieces wouldn't be a problem!

Just as he was about to reply to Ye Changfeng immediately, his brows suddenly furrowed: "The Xie family is going to cause me trouble?!"
