Chapter 32: Noah's Village
The problem of land was solved, and the problem of the source of soldiers was naturally solved, and through personal connections, Liu Yuan released the news of recruiting displaced people to cultivate the land.
Although in his opinion, the conditions he offered were very harsh, but the hungry people still flocked to him, and only then did Liu Yuan realize that what he had thought before was too simple.
At the beginning, Liu Yuan was ambitious, ready to recruit 100,000 strong men at one time, thinking that one day he would only need to train these people into elite soldiers.
It can't be said that the world is invincible, how can he dominate one side, but when he recruited five thousand strong men, he found a very serious problem.
It seems that his funds are not enough for him to toss, although Liu Chen loves him very much, and the things given to him can be regarded as treasures.
But even if he is given a mountain of gold and silver, if he can't get in or out, he will have to sit on the mountain sooner or later, and the five thousand strong men he recruited are not just five thousand.
In this year, who did not help the old and the young, behind the five thousand strong men was their huge family group, and this era is not like the future, basically a family of three.
Now it is not uncommon for a strong family to have at least five members, or even seven or eight families, so that Liu Yuanming has recruited 5,000 strong men, but in fact he has to feed tens of thousands of people.
His little money is enough to feed these people for about a year, and if he doesn't find a way to open source, his dreams will be wiped out after that year as the money is exhausted.
If he can open his mouth to his father, then there is no problem, but it is too late for Liu Yuan to hide this little thing, how can he find his father to open his mouth again.
This can stump Liu Yuan, who has always thought he is resourceful, and he can't eat or sleep for several days, but even if he tears off his hair, he can't come up with a good solution.
In the end, Liu Bo discovered his brother's abnormality, Liu Yuan, who had never been sick since he got better, turned his face sallow and his eyes were bloodshot.
This made Liu Bo very nervous for a while, he thought that his younger brother's old illness had relapsed, in order not to worry his parents, Liu Bo invited a doctor for Liu Yuan.
Liu Yuan, who was confused, was pressed to the collapse by Liu Bo, and then was forced to undergo an examination, and then the doctor told Liu Bo that his brother had nothing to do, and everything would be fine as long as he rested more.
This situation made Liu Bo wonder very much, his younger brother, a six- or seven-year-old child, what bothering him could make him unable to eat and sleep?
Under Liu Bo's questioning, he even moved out Liu Chen and his wife as a threat, and Liu Yuan told him the truth.
Of course, Liu Yuan didn't say that those were the private soldiers he raised, but that he saw that those homeless people were too pitiful, so he was ready to help as much as he could.
As soon as Liu Bo heard what happened, he immediately rolled his eyes, he didn't expect that his younger brother, who had always been a monkey spirit, would actually drill the horns of the bull this time.
He analyzed it for Liu Yuan, first of all, those people raised by Liu Yuan can't eat for nothing and don't work, so much land can't be wasted.
These people are all good at farming, and if they give them the land to cultivate, they will only need to wait a few months for the first grain to be harvested, and at least the problem of food will be solved.
Secondly, the family members of those people, although they are not strong laborers, but they are also holding the handle in the farm work, at least weaving a cloth and raising silkworms is no problem.
As long as they can survive until the harvest season, they will be able to solve their own clothing problems, so that the problems of food and clothing will be solved.
In the end, there were many craftsmen among the homeless people, and although they could not do any delicate work, it was not a big deal to build a hut for themselves.
The three major problems of food, clothing, and housing have been solved, so what else does Liu Yuan have to worry about, after saying that, Liu Bo left in a chic manner, leaving only Liu Yuan with a coquettish back.
Only then did Liu Yuan know what it meant to be a good man and three gangs, no wonder Cao Cao, as a generation of traitors, slowly developed after getting the help of Guo Jia and others.
Liu Bei, who had wandered for half his life, only gained a firm foothold in the troubled times after getting Zhuge Liang, and finally achieved the great cause of Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty.
No matter how powerful a person is, if he doesn't have these right-hand men by his side, it will be a dead word sooner or later!
Liu Bo's words opened a door for Liu Yuan, Liu Bo was right, if he raised those strong men, it would be useless to have a lot of money.
However, these people can create their value with their hands, and the strong men can continue their military training after finishing their farm work.
Their female family members can weave cloth shoes, their children can raise some poultry and livestock, and those who have skills can use their skills to help themselves.
And the only place where he is needed is the initial start-up capital and a large piece of land, and the land problem has now been solved, and the remaining funds are no problem at all as start-up capital.
After figuring it out, Liu Yuan fell asleep on the bed, and then after eating twice as much as his usual meal, Liu Yuan came to the village he named Noah.
In his heart, this village is his last Noah's Ark, with this village he will have hope for life, and his family can survive in the troubled times.
As soon as they came here, Liu Yuan was surrounded by a large number of displaced people, all of whom had been recruited by Liu Yuan, and now they were all anxiously waiting for their master family to distribute land to them.
Liu Yuan found some of the most respected people among the homeless people, asked them to follow him to a thatched hut, and then told him his decision.
For a while, the small hut was filled with the laughter of these people, who had thought that the harsh conditions of the master's family would await them.
I didn't expect it to be such a good condition, farming, weaving, breeding, these jobs are all at their fingertips, what they are most afraid of is that there is no work to do.
Now the lord gave them the land to plant, and provided them with seeds, farm tools, and even animal power, and also gave them enough food to survive before the harvest.
This kind of thing is what they dream of, and as for the forty percent tax, it is also very low to their surprise.
Such conditions were a paradise in this era, and then these highly respected homeless people began the work of rebuilding their homes with their people.
The days passed, and when Liu Yuan was seventh birthday, they ushered in the first harvest season, looking at the grain piled up in the barn, Liu Yuan let go of the heart that had been hanging.
In the past nearly a year, Liu Yuan has witnessed the development of Noah Village, and now it is no longer the desolate appearance it used to be.
Patches of houses are connected, large fields of well-ordered farmland, flocks of chickens and ducks, and of course, the singing and laughter of countless people.
The title of Noah is only worthy of this now, of course, if you want to keep the fruits of your labor in troubled times, it is absolutely impossible to rely on others to give alms.
You must master enough strength yourself, and starting today, Noah's village will enter into a three-month military training, but all men over the age of 16 must participate.
Now Liu Yuan is at the head of the village, waiting for the first instructor he invited for the villagers!
