Xiao Yi and Sun Tie took the order, and Zhao Rui originally wanted to introduce Arjuna to Song Fengyi, but seeing that Aruna was still taking care of the sick, Zhao Rui had to stop mentioning it for the time being.

Most of Arjuna's team were northerners, and they were extremely unaccustomed to the humid and hot climate here, so the number of people who fell was also the largest.

Zhao Rui went to check Lin Shizhao's injuries again, and found that he was already well, everyone could already sit and eat, and the mother and daughter of the Lin family were also emotionally stable.

Let Song Fengyi find an empty house and settle down their family first, Zhao Rui thoughtfully sent Zhiling and another Kunnu girl to serve, after all, it was his own family, and Zhao Rui couldn't bear to let them work too hard.

After arranging a little, Zhao Rui followed Song Fengyi to the main hall to sit down and drink tea.

Originally, he felt that his throat was dry and smoking, but after a few cups of warm tea, Zhao Rui only felt that the tea was mellow and sweet, and the heat in his heart was also dispelled a lot.

After Song Fengyi's elaboration, Zhao Rui has a general understanding of the current situation.

Song Fengyi did not store grain, so he bought all the grain and the silver he sent over to buy arable land, of course, when he bought it, it was wasteland, and the well-maintained paddy fields were rarely sold.

At present, it has nearly 4,000 acres of paddy fields and slopes, and employs seven or eight hundred Zhuang people all year round.

It sounds like a large area, but the yield at this time is low, and the yield of rice per mu is only more than 2 stones, that is, 200 catties. And a strong man has to eat two catties of food a day, so Zhao Rui's 6,000 people, plus nearly 1,000 long-term workers, that is, 7,000 people, a day's food consumption is 14,000 catties, a year is 5.11 million catties of grain, this is not counting Zhao Rui's expansion of the number of troops in the future.

Each acre of land, harvest two crops of rice, up to 5 stones, 4,000 acres is 20,000 stones, this is only 2 million catties, even their own people are not enough to eat.

But fortunately, the entire Yongping Village is Zhao Rui's chassis, and it is definitely enough to rely on rent collection to eat.

Just when Zhao Rui was still relatively optimistic, Song Fengyi said with a sad face: "But the people here are fierce, many tribes are self-contained, and it is difficult to collect rent, and even the government can't control it at the beginning." In addition, they are numerous, and often the officers and soldiers come, and they withdraw after seeing that the number of people cannot be defeated. It's not easy for us to want to be rented! ”

Zhao Rui pondered for a while, feeling that although food is more important, it is not severe, it is a big deal to return to modern times to pour food, don't they all say that farmers' income is small, Zhao Rui uses money to buy grain, which is equivalent to increasing the income of farmers and uncles in disguise.

"By the way, Fengyi, you go and help me find the local local officials, hehe, my prince has arrived, and they don't know yet!"

"yes, that's what I thought......"

Song Fengyi was about to call, but he didn't expect people to come to the door directly.

As soon as the person entered the door, he shouted: "Song Yuanwai, is Song Yuanwai at home...... Yo, why are there so many people...... The field rent is still paid in a few days, I just went to the field, and I can't see your family alone, what the hell is going on! ”

Song Fengyi and Zhao Rui went out together, the person who came was wearing a strong brocade gown with white matter square patterns, short and rich, followed by two subordinates, his expression was quite arrogant, but he was startled by the number of people in the courtyard.

"Lord Huang! Why are you free today, come in and have a cup of tea in the back room! ”

Song Fengyi's cordial future people were invited into the main hall, and after they sat down, they introduced Zhao Rui to each other, and Zhao Rui knew that the name of the local official of Yongping Village was Huang Jichao.

But Huang Jichao was at a loss by Zhao Rui's origins.

"What? You...... Are you the king? ”

"Exactly ......"

Zhao Rui found the holy decree and handed it over, Huang Jichao took the holy decree suspiciously, and his eyes were stunned all of a sudden.

"In the future, Yongping Village will be my fiefdom, Lord Huang, as the prefect of the soil, I still have to rely on your help!" Zhao Rui has just arrived, and he can't figure out the situation, and the best way is to pretend that people and animals are harmless.

"Uh...... It's easy to say, it's easy to say......"

Fiefdom Yongping Village, these words are like piercing Huang Jichao's eyes, he tried his best to get rid of it, but it was completely in vain.

Because the local officials are in the villages and towns, they belong to the general existence of the soil emperor, some of them are recommended, some are appointed by the imperial court, they only need to pay taxes on time every year, and all other big and small things are decided by the local officials, how big is this right?

But now a prince is parachuted on his head for no reason, what is going on? Is it possible that you will have to report to him if you have something in the future?

"Lord Huang, you don't have to worry about the field rent outside Song Yuan, you can just hand it over to my warehouse." Zhao Rui looked at his face and didn't seem to be unusual, and said: "There are also other land owners in Yongping Village, please go and inform me, and all the rent will be paid to me in the future, and Yongzhou Mansion will not accept your rent from now on." ”

Deducting land rent accounts for almost half of Huang Jichao's extra income, and now it is said that there is no more?

Huang Jichao's city was very deep, and he was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said: "That's great, I usually worry about collecting rent, but now that the prince takes over me, I can rest assured, and I don't have to run the fields for three days and two ends." ”

This local official is unexpectedly obedient...... Zhao Rui vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out, and then he greeted him for a while and sent Huang Jichao and the three of them away.

As soon as Huang Jichao walked out of the door, his whole face instantly became cold as frost.

One of his subordinates asked suspiciously, "My lord, why didn't you submit the matter of asking for food?" ”

"Hehe, why should I mention it, anyway, the food is not in my hands......"

Huang Jichao squinted his eyes, thinking that no matter how many people there were on Zhao Rui's side, what could they do more than the Jiaozhi people in Langzhou City?

It is said that cutting off people's financial routes is like killing their parents, Huang Jichao is determined not to let Zhao Rui have a good time.

After diagnosis and treatment, Zhao Rui found that the patient was not much better, but the Zhuang doctor dared to report that his life was worry-free, but he needed to be close to a month of recovery.

It's too slow......

Back to modern times, it has become an urgent thing to get medicine.

Zhao Rui calmed down and wrote the list alone in the house.

"Malaria medicine, camouflage uniforms, boots, water bottles, grain seeds, ......"

Maybe some cement?

Zhao Rui saw the third insect on the ground at this time, and happened to jump in a frog, stretched out his tongue and swallowed the insect into his mouth, and before the frog was happy, a snake with a pattern bit the frog in its mouth.

The snake was about a meter and a half long, and after a while the frog stopped struggling, and then inch by inch entered the snake's mouth. After eating, the snake looked up at Zhao Rui, spit out the letter, and seemed to feel that it couldn't eat such a behemoth, so it turned around and left the house.

Now Zhao Rui understands why there are two-story buildings like "Ganlan" living here, which is affected by the environment and climate, there are many poisonous insects and the like, and it is damp, and the house close to the ground is indeed not suitable for human habitation.

Zhao Rui thought about it, wrote down the word "bullet" again, and then drew a circle on it.

The thick circle of the brush is like a thick wall, this is what makes Zhao Rui the most difficult, and now Brother Long doesn't know what it looks like, but ninety percent of the arsenal is going to be transferred.

In the strict gun ban environment in China, Brother Long and they are already considered wonderful, and maybe there is an even more amazing background behind Jiang Ye's death, but these seem to be useless.

If you can't find Brother Long, it means that Zhao Rui has no way to get bullets.

Either...... Make your own?

Zhao Rui scratched his head, so where did the bullet assembly line go?

Song Fengyi still has more than 10,000 rifles shipped before, and there is still a surplus for the army, but without bullets, he is as helpless as a eunuch going to the Qinglou.

Zhao Rui even thought about either really joining the Shadow Killer Group and then looking for ammunition resources from it.

By the way, since you have arrived at your own fiefdom Yongping Village, you must have to build your own city wall, and the cost is even more innumerable, and it is far away.

If only there was a ready-made one......

Zhao Rui raised his head and looked through the window, just in time to see the border city of Langzhou on the opposite side, although their city wall was not as strong as that of the Song Dynasty, but if it was repaired, it was quite good......

Alas, what are you thinking, the bullets haven't landed yet, and you're still thinking about people's walls!

Zhao Rui crumpled the rice paper irritably.

"Young Master!"

Zhao Rui heard that it was Xiao Yi's voice.

"Come in."

Zhao Xiaoyi and Sun Tie walked into the house together and reported the situation to Zhao Rui.

"Young master, we found a vacant lot in the southeast of the house, backed by a mountain, which is conducive to defense, and we all think it is a good position. The barracks are even more convenient, there is a high ground on the side of the mountain, which can be built into a stepped barracks! ”

Zhao Rui nodded and asked, "Now according to the climate and environment characteristics here, is it difficult to build a two-story house?" ”

"This ......"

The two of them glanced at each other, neither of them knew much about the building, and they really couldn't answer.

It's over, and it's going to be delayed......

Zhao Rui waved his hand and ordered: "You ask in the Jingzhong Society, do you have any talents who understand construction, if not, find experts from the local area to build!" By the way, I'm going to contact Hu Ren to buy a batch of goods these days, and my family has shown me a good look, in case someone provokes trouble, use a gun directly! ”

"Yes, young master!"

Zhao Xiaoyi and Sun Tie retreated, and the sky was already dark at this time.

Zhao Rui went to find Zhao Gong and Arjuna, gave the same instructions for a while, and then went to see the Lin family. Lin Shizhao can already walk on the ground and is about to recover, and Zhao Rui is much more relieved.

While everyone was sleeping with the lights out, Zhao Rui entered the carriage cargo box that had already been cleaned up.

Skillfully close the door and open the left door, and the palatial hotel is already in view.

After Zhao Rui passed through the diaphragm, he returned to the modern era again.

The mobile phone in my pocket kept ringing.

It seems that this time I have been away for a long time!

Zhao Rui took out his mobile phone and looked at it, it was full of Liang Yunru's greeting messages, this girl, she didn't reply to her and sent it so energetically.
