In the afternoon, Chen Zijian stayed in a place by the sea, using a telescope to look at the surrounding terrain, the seaside of Dianbai County is a bit special, the coast is a piece of depression towards the land, forming a small inland sea.

Needless to say, the benefits of the inland sea are that the wind and waves are relatively gentle.

Chen Zijian plans to build Dianbai County into a fishing city, and in the future, it will be used as a meat base and fishery processing center for the volunteers.

Chen Zijian is looking for a place as a port, and currently uses sail ships, even if it is a large fortune ship, the draft depth is only two or three meters, this kind of ship does not need a deep-water port, this place in Dianbai County is enough.

After watching it, Chen Zijian had a plan in his heart, and after a while, he would send an engineering team of more than 10,000 people over, in addition to building a port, there was also the construction of a cement road connecting Zhangjia Village and Dianbai County.

When Chen Zijian was in the open sea, he encountered several whales, which showed that there are a lot of whales now, which is beneficial to his plan, and a soap production base will be set up here.

At present, in this environment at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult to ensure food security, Chen Zijian put food security in the ocean, the food in the ocean, to supply a billion 800 million people, is a simple matter, it is impossible to grow food so easy to increase production, but in the sea fishing, and then processing, you can easily get food, there is such an easy way to solve food security, with the desperate land that bit of output!

What if there is no food, as long as the fish from the ocean are processed and eaten all day long, the food that Chen Zijian plans to give to the people in the future is to supplement it with grain, and fish is the mainstay.

The ocean is a great treasure.

Standing on the hillside, Chen Zijian saw the surrounding scenery, and the artistic conception suddenly came like a spring, and immediately recited a poem "The sun is at the end of the mountain, and the Yellow River flows into the sea." If you want to be poor, go to the next level. Li Hu, how is this poem! ”

Li Hu was stunned next to him, he wanted to open his mouth to pat himself, but he didn't know how to shoot it, he just learned a few words, Chen Zijian just said that the poem was completely unfamiliar to him, what should he do.

Chen Zijian glanced at Li Hu, "Bastard thing, if you don't learn anything, you will study hard for me in the future, and if you don't learn well, you will stay in school as a doorman." "Well, this kind of high-IQ scolding feels really good, Chen Zijian scolds refreshingly, and occasionally scolds his subordinates, which is conducive to improving his majesty.

Li Hu is full of grievances, the chief doesn't take such a trick, he doesn't know what level of the chief, he can only accept being scolded by the chief, who makes himself a subordinate, being scolded twice is a thing!

The sound of horses' hooves was heard, and two volunteers on horseback approached.

"Chief, Captain Li Xi has arrived with his brothers."

Chen Zijian: "Okay, it's good that they're here, and it's time to close the net." Hmph, I really don't dare to touch you. ”

Before the volunteers blockaded the county, there were several families and gentry in the county, who wanted to go out of the city with money, in this case, Chen Zijian was naturally unwilling, he had already regarded all the things in the county as his trophies, and someone dared to take his things away, isn't this an act of looking for death!

Perhaps those people were used to being arrogant in the county, thinking that the volunteers would not dare to do anything to them, but they were killed by the volunteers on the spot dozens of families who wanted to rush out of the city, so that those gentry could be suppressed.

For the volunteers to block the city gate and force them out, the gentry found the volunteers and sent a message to Chen Zijian, the language was full of threats, warning Chen Zijian about the officialdom behind them, Chen Zijian beat the messenger out at that time, but in this way he formed a bond with the gentry in the city.

The power of the gentry was not small, and they continued to spread gossip in the city, causing panic among the people in the city, and then a large number of people gathered at the city gate to escape from the city.

The number of volunteers is less than 100 people, how can this situation stop so many people, and for ordinary people, the volunteers can't hurt people, so a large part of the people escaped.

If Chen Zijian makes a move and guards the city gate, no one will be able to go out, but he doesn't have to take action in everything, if the volunteers want to solve the problem on their own, and he, the chief, will solve every little problem, then why do the volunteers!

Chen Zijian knew that the gentry fled with a lot of money, and he was indifferent, he was just a little unhappy with those forces in his heart, and revenge was certain, but he would not make a move, and the volunteers did not dare to make a move against those forces, so they could only wait for the arrival of the people from Zhangjia Village, and it was time to liquidate them.

Now that the opportunity came, Chen Zijian rode back with his people, and when he arrived at the gate of the city, he saw a company of 150 people waiting for him in a phalanx.

Seeing the chief who had not been seen for many days, Li Xianniusheng and several captains came over to salute, "Good chief." ”

Chen Zijian got off the horse and returned the salute, "How about it, is there any problem in Zhangjia Village after I leave?" Chen Zijian asked casually, Zhangjia Village is protected by volunteers, what can happen, ordinary bandits, bandits, do they dare to come to Zhangjia Village to collect protection money, there is really such a guy who is not long-eyed, without Chen Zijian's orders, Li Shi will lead people to destroy those people, and then throw them away for mining.

Well, now the Volunteers have formed a habit that they will not take the initiative to slaughter their captives unless they are the most heinous, and the captives will work in the mines for as long as they want, depending on their sins. Killing the captives is not a waste of manpower, this kind of thing is forbidden by Chen Zijian.

If you do something bad and get caught mining, don't think it's a comfortable thing, although you don't have to die, but you are forced to work hard with a whip every day, it's a very painful thing, not much worse than death.

Li Shi shook his head, "Chief, everything is fine in Zhangjiacun, by the way, when I left, my wife asked me to bring a letter to you, chief." Then he took out the letter from the back pocket of the horse next to him and handed it to Chen Zijian.

The corners of Chen Zijian's mouth rose and he put the letter away, this situation is not the time to read the letter.

"Alright, brothers, do you want to rest!"

When Li Shi heard this, he knew that the chief had an order, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, chief, there is no problem with the brothers." ”

Chen Zijian: "Okay, then the matter is handed over to you, what did you do in Maoming County last time, what do you do now, by the way, let me destroy those families and gentry in the city first." And if I catch someone lifting, I'll break their legs. ”

Chen Zijian knows that the people he said will not cooperate without him, think about it, the gentry have a lot of land and live a life of drunken dreams and death, Chen Zijian's favors to ordinary people, will people look at it! People have a lot of money, Chen Zijian gave them a hundred or thousands of silver, and people may not blink, this little favor wants to buy them, isn't this a beggar donating money to the rich!

Since you can't cooperate with those people, and Chen Zijian can't satisfy their appetite, staying in the territory is a scourge, and Chen Zijian wants to collect all the land, and confiscate the land that people have used various means for generations, who will agree! Therefore, Chen Zijian simply let the landlords and gentry who controlled a large amount of land die unexpectedly.

The landlord and the gentry's entire family died unexpectedly, and the land they controlled naturally became a terra nullius, Chen Zijian could take those lands as his, and whoever dared to have an opinion would let him die unexpectedly, and Chen Zijian would not have any compromise with the gentry and landlords on the ownership of the land.

They don't want their land to be confiscated by Chen Zijian, so they show their skills, send killers, or form an army to destroy Chen Zijian, if they can't destroy Chen Zijian, that is their unlucky time.

The land will be in the hands of Chen Zijian in the future, that is to pay a certain amount of taxes, the Ming Dynasty is because of the policy of giving scholars tax exemption, they played themselves to death, Chen Zijian did not want this kind of thing to happen in the future, to block the wall of tax exemption, otherwise, if a certain group is opened, smart Chinese people will find a way to exploit the loophole.

When Li Xi heard this, his heart was happy, such an order is a big task, and the military merits that can be earned are not small, and after the completion of this task, there must be a lot of volunteers promoted, such a thing The volunteers are very red-eyed, just ask, get promoted and make a fortune, stay in front of you, who doesn't work hard!

Li Shi slapped his chest and said, "Don't worry, chief, leave it to me." ”

Chen Zijian: "After finishing the things in the city, invite all the people within a radius of 50 miles back to Zhangjia Village, you know how to do it!" ”

To put it mildly, Chen Zijian decided the fate of the people of Dianbai County, these people were invited to Zhangjia Village, and after some transformation, they will be sent to other counties to settle down, and they want to come back to Dianbai County, sorry, that's impossible, the people of Dianbai County stay in the local area, there are various interests, it's too troublesome to clean it up, or go to a strange place to start over!

The forces in the city are now ready to capture the current volunteers, and they don't need him as the chief to make a move, nonsense, the city gate is under the control of the volunteers, and that force has the ability to confront the volunteers.

Li Shi went over to the side of the volunteers and shouted with a loudspeaker, "Brothers, the time has come to make meritorious contributions, I won't say anything, brothers want to be promoted and make a fortune, rush me." Kill. ”

The volunteers shouted in unison, "Kill, kill, kill!" "The sound is deafening, the people in the city can hear the shouting outside the city wall, since the volunteers arrived outside the city, the city is blocked, before because the volunteers are few, the people who can go out, see this momentum, they dare not approach the city gate.

As long as you are not a fool, you can see that the soldiers outside are not easy to mess with, and the volunteers are mistaken for the imperial army, not once or twice, because their appearance is too deceptive.

A neat queue, a clean appearance, more than the imperial army, such a team tells the people that they are bandits, and no one will believe it.
