In years of famine and drought, their village even rejected fatty meat.

Chapter 410 Real and Tangible Benefits

"Strictly speaking, there won't be much change."

Chen Da said, "The food and military pay remain unchanged, still three meals a day and one tael of silver, but..."

Chen Da paused for a moment, then continued, "There will be some differences in training resources. Dao Ge'er said that training resources will be tilted towards the Chen Family Army in the future. Although the security team can also obtain training resources, they will definitely receive fewer than the Chen Family Army."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in surprise.

Those who joined the Chenjia Village Guard Team were undoubtedly the people with the highest standard of living in the entire Chenjia Village. They had long since achieved basic needs, and after achieving this, their life goals also changed.

Before, all they wanted was to have enough to eat, but now, after becoming martial artists, their life goal has become to continue climbing the path of martial arts!

In this situation, the importance of martial arts training resources to them is self-evident. If they were assigned to the security team, their martial arts training resources would be reduced, which would be absolutely unacceptable to them.

"Uncle, we're not going to be assigned to the security team, are we?"

Chen Zhongqing couldn't help but ask, fearing that he would be assigned to the guard team, which would make it difficult for him to make any progress in martial arts in the future.

"Not yet!"

Chen Da shook his head: "The security team members will be selected from that batch of new recruits first. New recruits who are slower to progress in martial arts will be temporarily assigned to the security team. We started earlier than those new recruits and are now martial artists, so we will not be assigned to the security team in the short term."

"That's good!"

Many people breathed a sigh of relief, but Chen Zhong continued to ask, "Not in the short term, meaning in the future?"

"Correct!"

Chen nodded: "That's why I'm urging you to work hard. Otherwise, if the new recruits catch up with you, you might be assigned to the security team!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed, and they all resolved to work hard in the future and never be lazy, otherwise it would be embarrassing if they were assigned to the security team.

Of course, losing face is a minor issue; the most important thing is the reduction in resources available for martial arts training.

"Looks like we need to work harder, otherwise we'll lose all face if those new recruits catch up with us."

"Starting today, I'll train extra every day. I absolutely cannot be assigned to the security team!"

"Me too!"

"..."

The members of the guard team were all determined to train hard and never be assigned to the guard team.

Meanwhile, Fang Yong, who had left Chenjia Village, returned to Tupo Village under the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Yong'er, you're back?"

After seeing off the last matchmaker, Fang's mother pulled Fang Yong back into the house. She didn't mind the smell of sweat on Fang Yong at all, but instead asked with concern, "How was your day in Chenjia Village?"

Fang's mother and Fang Hao, who were inside the house, also turned their gazes to Fang Yong, their faces full of concern.

"pretty good."

Fang Yong grinned and said, "The training of the Chenjia Village guard team is very tiring, but I can persevere."

"It's good that you can persevere!"

Mother Fang breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, "Yong'er, is the Chen Family Village guard team really as good as people say?"

"It's better than that!"

Speaking of this, Fang Yong perked up and said, "The Chenjia Village guard team not only provides plenty of steamed buns, but also meat! Before I returned to the village, I ate a whole bowl of meat and ten steamed buns, and I'm still feeling full."

Hearing this, the three people in the room exchanged a glance and were completely relieved.

"Big brother."

Fang Hao said with a smile, "Our house is so lively today! From this morning until now, five matchmakers have come to our house, all wanting to find you a spouse!"

Fang Yong was taken aback and exclaimed in surprise, "So many?"

"you do not say!"

Fang Hao chuckled and said, "All the matchmakers know about your joining the Chenjia Village Guard Team, and they're all eager to introduce you to potential wives!"

"Uh!"

Fang Yong scratched his head, a little embarrassed, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "Dad, Mom, I don't want to get married yet."

"why?"

Mr. and Mrs. Fang were taken aback. Although Fang Yong hadn't said anything before, they could tell that he actually wanted to get married, but because of his poor family conditions and the lack of suitable women, he had never brought it up.

But Fang Yong, contrary to his usual behavior, said that he didn't want to get married, which inevitably surprised the two of them.

"I really don't have time to get married right now."

Fang Yong explained, "I have to get to Chenjia Village for training before 9 am every day and I won't be back until evening. How can I have time to get married? Besides, my most important thing right now is to stay in the Chenjia Village guard team. I really have no intention of getting married."

Before joining the Chenjia Village Guard Team, Fang Yong was generally enthusiastic about getting married, but now his thoughts have changed somewhat.

For him now, the most important thing is to actually join the Chenjia Village Guard Team and become a formal member of the team. Only this can change his family's fate!

Apart from this matter, everything else is insignificant to Fang Yong now, including marriage.

"But……"

Mr. Fang frowned and said, "You're already 21 years old. If you don't find a wife soon, it might be too late!"

"father."

Fang Yong looked at his father and said, "If I can join the Chen Family Village Guard Team, do I still have to worry about not being able to find a wife? Also, Mr. Chen from Chen Family Village said that as long as we can become martial artists, we can immediately become official members of the Chen Family Village Guard Team and even obtain Chen Family Village residency!"

"Chenjia Village household registration?"

Fang Hao's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Big brother, is this true?"

"of course it's true."

Fang Yong nodded affirmatively.

Upon seeing this, Fang Hao stood up in delight: "This is great news! If you can get a household registration in Chenjia Village, our family will be set for life!"

Seeing Fang Hao's delighted expression, Fang's parents were completely bewildered and couldn't help but ask, "What are the benefits of having a household registration in Chenjia Village?"

"Father, mother."

Fang Hao explained to the two of them, "This Chenjia Village household registration is something you can't find even with a lantern. As long as you register in Chenjia Village, you can enjoy the benefits of Chenjia Village. You can buy grain at half price in the grain shop in Chenjia Village. Don't you think this household registration is amazing?"

"Is there such a good thing?"

Fang's mother stared wide-eyed, her face full of disbelief. She had lived half her life and had never seen grain at half price.

"Of course!"

Fang Hao said, "Why does everyone in our county want to register their household in Chenjia Village? Isn't it because there are real benefits to having a Chenjia Village household registration? If you register your household in Chenjia Village, then you, Mom and Dad, can go live with me in Chenjia Village and enjoy a better life!"
