In fact, it's not that Liu Pei is hypocritical. But Liu Pei, as a modern person, has a special respect for life. So he won't be as indifferent to death as Qi Qitao and them. Because for them, death is a thing that can come at any time. And even if their lives were stable, they were only struggling on the brink of starvation. It tastes absolutely unpleasant! It's enough to make people take risks!

Especially at this time, people still have this special obsession with the family. In their belief, even if they sacrifice themselves, they must exchange for a peaceful life for their families! There has never been a shortage of such people in the history of China! When the family is in crisis, or when the nation is in danger, there will always be someone who will stand up and try to prevent all disasters from happening without hesitating to die! This may be one of the reasons why the inheritance of Han civilization has been in various crises for thousands of years, but it has never been broken!

After Liu Pei returned to Fushan Village and arranged for the dead and wounded boys, he let out his mouth and began to recruit people, and now the village was overcrowded!

Since Liu Pei last presided over the funeral for a few young men, there are too many people who want to be Liu Pei's family! Especially when Liu Pei decided to add 5 buckets of rice to the original one or two taels of silver, the military remnants in the military households are going crazy! Anyway, it's a death, and when I die, the whole family can eat enough, and this thing is something that I have to fight for! Not to mention that it is not necessary to die!

In fact, it's no wonder they're crazy. When their family was a regular soldier in the guardhouse, they didn't get as much money as Liu Pei's family! Not to mention so many military remnants who have no positions. Military surplus refers to the remaining military household personnel who meet the conditions, but are no longer recruited when the quota of the health center is full. These people are generally young people, they can neither join the army nor have extra land, they can only live by working part-time jobs and boiling some private salt every day, they have long been half-starved and half-fed, and now they have such a good opportunity to fight!

And there are often in-laws between villages, so it is not difficult to get news from one village to another. Originally, the military households in several nearby villages belonged to Aoshanwei, but as a result, many of the military families on the Lingshanwei side of Jiaozhou Bay came over.

And Liu Pei made it clear that a total of 500 people will be recruited this time. In other words, in addition to the more than 100 people he already has, Liu Pei has to recruit at least 300 people. If Liu Pei recruited people half a year ago, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to recruit so many people if he wanted to! Because in addition to the young people from several surrounding villages who want to farm, the rest have basically been recruited by Liu Pei. Fortunately, there are still a lot of surplus troops in those villages in the distance, and they are not afraid of not being able to recruit people.

And it was not only his subordinates who helped Liu Pei spread the news, but even people from several surrounding villages were spontaneously working hard to publicize it. The reason is very simple, the more family members Liu Peizhao has, the more materials he needs. It is not enough that all the grain, vegetables, meat and other things produced in several nearby villages have been sold to Liu Pei, and he has to purchase some more in the county seat. If Liu Pei's family members increase, it means that the demand increases! They have more incentive to raise more livestock; Spinning more cloth. These things are strings of copper coins to these peasant families!

Several villages around the area have changed dramatically since Liu Pei came. First of all, there are new wheat seeds, and my wife also taught them to make soil fertilizer, so the grain production has increased by nearly 30%! Everyone's life was much more relaxed back then. In addition, Liu Pei's workshop has also absorbed a lot of idlers, and life in the village is even better!

In fact, the most beneficial thing for everyone is the good appetite of more than 100 young men and the consumption of training! As the saying goes, "half the size eats the poor"! Not to mention a strong young man who practices every day! In order to have no problems with the practice, Liu Pei has to ration at least four taels of meat per person every day! In other words, it takes an average of three days to eat a bite of a pig! This has boosted the interest of all the villagers in raising livestock! Every family is raising chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, so that they can be sold at a good price when they are raised. As for the clothes and cloth shoes that Liu Pei gave to the boys, they were also purchased in the village. Big girls and little daughters-in-law can also earn hard money with their craft! It's been a much easier day!

Although everyone is still frugal when there is surplus food at home, they have eaten three meals anyway! Although these three meals are dry and thin, they are not much stronger than the previous days when there was only one dry and one thin meal a day! Occasionally, you can eat meat! The dolls have meat on their faces, and they are even more naughty! The adults have blood on their faces, and they have the strength to work! Even the big girls have become watery! You can't marry into a foreign village and cheapen those poor ghosts! This is a good year for them that they have never encountered before! They are full of hope that Liu Pei will continue to be strong! That way, they can live a better life with it!

So because of the support of the villagers, Liu Pei easily recruited 500 people. To say that the happiest people here are Qi Qitao and Wu Yizhou! Because since Liu Pei recruited Jiading, the two of them have been responsible for leading the team to train and fight. This time the enrollment has been expanded, and their status will naturally rise. So the two of them are the most motivated.

When the recruitment was full, the entire Fushan Village became lively. At the beginning, Liu Pei's large barracks was already packed with 500 people. Now there are more than 20 mothers and daughters-in-law in the village helping to cook. Every morning, 500 people have become a sight in the village. Liu Pei was busy with the recruitment of troops, so he left the training to Qi Qitao and Wu Yizhou. He himself began to engage in large-scale economic development.

First of all, Liu Pei invested in the aquaculture industry in more than a dozen nearby villages. He can't increase the production of pigs and sheep, but he can do it for chickens and ducks. The thermometer I brought last time finally came in handy! Under Liu Pei's guidance, the women began to artificially incubate chickens and ducks. Liu Pei is responsible for paying for the construction of greenhouses and enclosures; The villagers are responsible for providing eggs and feeding. The profits received by both parties are divided in half. Liu Pei was responsible for the purchase of the meat produced. Liu Pei did this because he knew the truth of Shengmien's fight against Mi. He was willing to let the villagers get rich by their own labor, rather than relying on him.

The first batch of chickens and ducks to hatch was in Fushan Village. At that time, people from several nearby villages came to learn art. When the first batch of chicken and duck seedlings hatched, the whole village was thunderous! They knew that Liu Pei had found them another way to make money. Everyone rushed to talk to Liu Pei, wanting Liu Pei to go to their village to build a warm house and enclosure earlier. Everyone is full of hope for the future life!
