Chapter 107

"Raise shields on both sides."

"Group 1, listen to my command, thrust at the opponent's shield."

"Group 2, hold the shield tight, use your upper arm to brace, pay attention to your center of gravity."

"Don't be afraid of consuming durability, Li Zhu and the others are always making new ones, and we don't lack wood."

"Don't be afraid of hurting the opposite side, wooden spear thrusts are hard to pierce through wooden shields, it only consumes the wooden shield's durability, thrust with force!"

"If anyone is injured, tell Gu Qing, she will treat you."

"Very good, switch offense and defense."

"Group 2, start thrusting!"

"Group 1, pay attention to defense!"

On the training ground, Zhao Chi was explaining the method of standing sparring.

The benefit of this is that it allows both the offensive and defensive sides to simulate real combat scenarios.

When attacking the shield, the force received by the hands is different from normal practice.

There will be a strong reaction force.

When defending with a shield, the arms and body will also receive significant force.

Practicing more can improve real combat experience.

The female soldiers' movements gradually became proficient.

If attack power cannot pierce defense, it can only damage the equipment's durability.

If attack power can pierce defense, it will harm the opponent's body. At the same time, durability will also be lost.

In any case, durability will be lost.

This part of the wear and tear cost is not low.

These female soldiers were all smart; after practicing a few times, the training got on the right track.

Zhao Chi put away his weapon: "Gu Qing, I leave the territory to you."

Gu Qing nodded: "Don't worry, my lord, be careful on the road."

Zhao Chi nodded and clicked return.

The scenery before his eyes changed.

Instantly back to the wooden house in the Great World.

Having not been back for two days, looking at the situation in the house, it felt both familiar and strange.

He pushed the door and went out.

The afternoon sun was very intense.

Zhao Chi squinted his eyes and walked towards the village.

Today was still a workday, there were few people in the village.

Only some aunts and older women with children.

Seeing Zhao Chi pass by, their gazes locked onto him uncontrollably.

Immediately after, whispering sounds rang out.

Zhao Chi didn't look back and went straight into the largest courtyard in the east of the village.

This was the family's public house.

Coming here had only one purpose.

Get money!

He was still an intern lord, not an official basic lord.

There were many permissions that hadn't been unlocked.

Just like minors can't go to internet cafes, intern lords have many things they can't do.

For example, they cannot pay taxes remotely.

They also cannot take out loans.

Outside, one cannot take out loans, but one can go to the clan to borrow money.

The one in charge of money in the clan was the fourth son of Zhao Chi's eldest uncle, Zhao Hong, who counted as his fourth cousin, 13 years older than Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi was ranked 13th among his peers, and there were 5 younger brothers and sisters behind him.

There were quite a few people in the clan, but none were too strong.

Zhao Hong was considered to have decent strength among the younger generation.

He was frowning at this moment.

Staring tightly at Zhao Chi.

"Say it again, how much money do you want to borrow?"

"15 gold coins." Zhao Chi smiled friendly.

"You… should know how much 15 gold coins is, right? Aren't you already developing your territory? The clan should be asking you for money now, why are you thinking of wanting 15 gold coins?"

Zhao Chi shook his head: "It's not wanting money, I'm borrowing money."

"Isn't that the same thing? What are you going to do? Want to buy race bloodline?"

"What race bloodline can 15 gold coins buy?"

"So I'm saying, what do you want so much money for? The clan doesn't have spare money either."

Zhao Chi sighed: "Don't worry Fourth Brother, you should know my character, I will definitely pay it back."

Zhao Hong shook his head: "If you said you wanted to borrow 1-2 gold coins, I would have lent them to you, but you want to borrow 15 gold coins, that won't do."

"Why won't it do?"

"You still owe the clan money, you've been raised by the clan for these two years, eating and wearing clothes, don't those cost money? And your school tuition, other fees the school wants, the clan has already paid quite a bit for you."

Zhao Chi nodded: "I understand, I will pay back double."

Zhao Hong still shook his head: "Our clan really has no money now. Just last night, we paid a large sum to those District 7 noble dogs. And now with the monster siege, the clan also needs money to buy personnel and supplies, money hasn't been left for a long time."

Zhao Chi was silent for a moment.

Monster siege, District 7 nobles coming nearby.

These two things were just notified by Li Ruanyu.

Monster siege, whether it's nobles or commoners, the lords of every family must definitely go to battle.

Going to battle will definitely have casualties.

If you don't want casualties, you must be well-prepared, buy more powerful subordinates, and prepare more supplies.

It truly requires spending quite a bit of money.
