Jiang Liu hurriedly replied: "No crime, no crime, those who don't know are not guilty, haha." ”

It's just that as soon as the words came out, Jiang Liu himself felt that something was wrong, how could he feel that what he said was not like that, and he seemed a little funny.

The majestic statement should be full of anger: Those who do not know are not guilty, and I have come to ......

Renhe's statement should be: Where the old man said, I came uninvited this time......

But what is he talking about now?

Robinson also felt a little wrong, so he quickly took over the conversation and said, "The city lord came here to hire some villagers from your village to cultivate the territory, what did the village chief say?" ”

Robinson's words were so impactful and powerful that they diverted the attention of the villagers.

"General, it's about to be spring ploughing, and there are not enough people in the village, how can there be spare strength? If the spring ploughing is delayed, we can't pay the taxes in the county at the end of the year, and we can't explain it! ”

"That's it!"

……

The village chief's words immediately caused a chorus of echoes.

"Everyone, be quiet!"

Robinson suppressed the noise with a single sentence, and this kind of grassroots work ability is difficult for ordinary people to have.

Many people who are full of poetry and books can handle all kinds of major events above the county level, but they really come to the village-level unit alone and face a large group of villagers, and they can't have fun.

is like a saying: Xiucai meets soldiers, and it is unreasonable to say.

"Village chief, the amount of water in the river has decreased by as much as fifty percent, you know?"

The village chief nodded.

"The amount of water in the small river was originally just enough for your village to be divided equally with Daping Village, but now that the water volume is less than half, do you think there will be no conflict between you and Daping Village? When the time comes, take a hoe and a stick to the river and fight, village chief, can you guarantee that no one will have an accident? ”

Robinson's words are also a concern for the village chief, these days he and several elders in the village have also tried to make initial contact with Daping Village, and discussed the preliminary plan on how to use water, plus there is enough prey in the mountains and forests, as long as it is prepared in advance, there should be no starvation to death.

"And from your experience, you should be able to sense that there is a drought this year."

"Drought", hearing the word, the faces of the elderly turned slightly pale, and the villagers also had a look of fear.

In this era when the agricultural economy is dominated and taxes are rampant, there is no drought that does not kill people, but the difference between more and less deaths.

In fact, the old people have this feeling after decades of experience, but it is God's decision to not be drought, and they can only use the current limited resources to do their part well except to pray that God will open their eyes.

"General, if there is really a drought, how can the city lord's territory ensure water supply?"

In the game, the system does not set up the problem of water diversion irrigation of farmland at all, and now Jiangzuocheng has crossed into the reality of the Three Kingdoms, and it has become groundwater irrigation.

Robinson had learned from Jiang Dongxian that the amount of groundwater in Jiangzuo City had never decreased, which was enough to ensure the irrigation of farmland in the city.

"We have extremely abundant groundwater in Jiangzuo City, and even drought will not affect it in the slightest."

"Can we think about it?"

"Absolutely."

Seeing that the negotiations were about to enter a long stalemate, Jiang Liu remembered a story that he didn't know whether it was true or false, so he wanted to speak, thinking that he was a little embarrassed by his previous recklessness, so he whispered to Robinson: "Robinson, why don't you tell the village chief that Daping Village has agreed to our employment, so that they have a sense of urgency, and it is better to talk about the employment fee?" ”

Robinson smiled bitterly: "City Lord, this kind of small way, if you are a shrewd businessman, it is a reluctant acceptable choice for unimportant partners, but as the lord of a city, if you really do this, you will undoubtedly pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon." ”

Jiang Liu's face was a little feverish, but he was still a little unconvinced, how could such a good idea be such an evaluation?

Seeing Jiang Liu's expression, Robinson continued to explain: "City Lord, Xiaohua Village and Daping Village are so close, after such a long time, there must be intermarriage between the two villages, and there must be a lot of mutual visits. We said that Daping Village had agreed to our employment, but if Xiaohua Village asked when we would discuss it, what would we do? Casually one day, there happened to be a villager from Xiaohua Village in Daping Village that day, and the relatives didn't see us, what should we do if they directly demoted it? ”

"Take 10,000 steps back, things are going well, but in the future, we will all farm in Jiangzuo City, and we will have a lot of contact, and when we talk about this employment, we will find that we lied. But all intelligent beings do not like to be deceived, and when they find out that the lord of the city has deceived them, what respect do they have for the lord of the city? And how to let them slowly integrate into Jiangzuo City and become the citizens of Jiangzuo City? The lord of the city, people do not stand without faith, as the lord of a city, they must not lose the word faith. ”

This call made Jiang Liu's face flushed, but he admitted his mistake.

Jiangliu has a rare advantage, and it is good to listen to.

This sounds simple, but some people can't do it, obviously others are for your good, but they don't listen to it very well, and they will feel alienated from people.

This is also due to Robinson's loyalty as high as 100, so he will say this to Jiang Liu, after all, his loyalty is against his ears.

Things went well, and after a short period of consideration, the two villages soon entered the preliminary negotiation phase.

After learning that Jiang Zuocheng was just a few miles away, it only took more than an hour to walk, and that you could go home at any time to have a look, the success rate of the negotiation was even higher.

In the end, the two villages reached a cooperation agreement with Jiangzuocheng, and the core agreement was one: three out of ten taxes (ten parts of the harvest for planting, and three shares for Jiangzuocheng). ）

On this day, Jiang Liu, who was bored and wanted to doze off in a rocking chair, saw a large wave of red dots appear outside the city gate.

"Robinson's negotiations have been successful!"

Jiang Liu was quite excited to take Jiang Xiaoer to the gate of the city.

Although recently, in order to exercise and be bored, he would try to run around the inner city, and then follow Jiang Xiaoer and Jiang Xiaosan out to exercise, playing with sticks, knives and guns, but thinking of the three-hour round trip, he still retreated, and let Robinson go alone in the later negotiations.

Seeing Jiang Liu waiting for his arrival at the gate of the city, even though Robinson's loyalty was no longer worth it, a wave of gratitude still appeared on his face, and he bowed: "City Lord! Wechen lives up to its mission! ”

Seeing Robinson bowing down on one knee so solemnly, the crowd of black pressure looked at Jiang Zuocheng with some shock, looking at him, Jiang Liu also emerged with some pride, and said heartily: "Hurry up, please get up!" ”

"Thank you, City Lord!"

This time, Robinson brought more than 140 strong men in their prime, more than 30 middle-aged people, and more than 30 strong teenagers.

In modern times, these teenagers may have just entered high school, but in the Three Kingdoms, they have already begun to struggle for survival.
