The problem of territorial balance caused by the loss of some industries has aroused the great attention of Yu Buzhi.

Solving the problem of revenue and expenditure is nothing more than reducing expenditure and opening up sources.

Let's start with throttling.

Aside from the cost of territorial construction, the biggest regular project expenditure has always been salary expenditure, and the consequence of maintaining ultra-high salaries and benefits is to grit steel teeth when paying salaries. Yi Feng and Xu Shu both persuaded to reduce salaries, but Yu Buzhi never relented, this guy claimed that "the benefits promised by the territory represent the integrity and reputation of the lord", and they were determined to continue to run wild on the road of high salaries, so the salary reduction plan was not in the choice from the beginning.

The salary that costs the most cannot be reduced, so we can only find a way to find other regular expenses.

The military expenditure of the territory is second only to the salary expenditure, so the deer army has become a victim of the high salary system, resulting in the long-term compression of the establishment of the deer army, and the size of the army does not match the degree of development of the territory.

In order to participate in the battle of the famous city, 5,000 recruits were urgently recruited, and the maximum strength was less than 13,000 at the time of the battle. If it weren't for the fact that many historical talents served in the army, the Zhulu Army would have made a name for its bravery and good fighting in one brutal battle after another, and the size of the army would have been too small in terms of the external threats and challenges faced by the Zhulu Army. Objectively speaking, with the exception of the two special arms, there is no limit on the establishment of other troops, and the other units can be increased as much as possible.

Even the military establishment has been reduced to such an extent, which shows that the cost of each deer leader has been reduced to the extreme.

Throttling has reached its peak, and there is no more potential to be tapped.

Let's talk about open source.

There are several main ways of open source: export and consumption.

Exports mainly depend on market demand, and the demand for ordinary goods that can be produced everywhere is obviously very limited, and it is necessary to rely on fist commodities that others do not have or rarely have, that is, special products.

Zhulu Collar has three major specialties, and there is also a white bamboo crossbow that looks like a specialty in the eyes of players, and Zhulu Collar has been sparing no effort to expand the scale of specialty production, such as Ebu, Baxiang Qing and [Zhang Jisan]. However, it takes time to train new skilled talents, and the production efficiency of new people is low, unless ready-made middle and senior craftsmen are directly brought in, and the production capacity increase brought by training new people is relatively slow. After occupying the famous city, it is not difficult to see how serious the talent collection habit is.

It is a very dangerous thing to pin all your hopes on specialties.

Zhulu Ling is embarking on to open up new markets, the Han market because everyone has mastered the production technology, the competition is fierce and there are few profits, but the lack of production technology in the alien areas, many ordinary goods are very popular!

Zhululing aimed at the Qianghu market in the Hetao area.

The nomadic people have a low level of science and technology, the use of resources is not comparable to that of agricultural civilization, and the productivity is low, so many daily necessities have to be exchanged for furs, war horses, cattle and sheep. When he decided to establish a stronghold in Hetao, Yu Buzhi was not only the war horse trade and the false name of expanding the territory in Hetao, but also the market of the Qianghu tribe in Hetao. Historically, there were millions of Qianghu in Hetao, and due to the influx of hundreds of millions of players in the game, the number of NPC populations has risen with the tide, and no one can tell how many Qianghu people there are in Hetao.

With such a large market, there is no reason not to develop it well.

Due to the limited demand for territory, the production capacity of many industries in the territory has not been released, and things cannot be sold, so it will not produce too much, and it is good to save some material costs. But in terms of labor costs, insufficient production is a great waste, and the wages and benefits of villagers will not be reduced because of the reduced workload, and the more things produced, the more labor costs can be allocated to more products.

If long-term and solid trade ties can be established with Qianghu, there will be a dumping market for surplus goods produced by ordinary industries, which can bring additional profits to the territory. It's just that because the dragon leader unexpectedly fought with the Qianghu early, and planted a difficult impression in the hearts of the Qianghu tribes, it took more trouble for the Qianghu tribes to accept trade with the dragon leader. However, for the sake of the future of the territory, no matter how difficult it is, we must continue to move forward.

Zhulu Ling has made a careful plan for this, so that the redemption of the four clans is a stepping stone.

The long-term acceptance of Han Chinese is ostensibly to increase the population of the dragon leader, and the other implicit purpose is to establish a normal connection with the Qianghu, with this excuse, the dragon leader under the aura of "divine dragon protection" can maintain long-term contact with the Qianghu. First, the prisoners of war were exchanged for Han Chinese, and when the prisoners of war were almost finished, the dragon leader lost no time in expanding the scope of the transaction: Do you want food? Do you want daily necessities? Do you want it? Do you want spirits? Do you want luxury......

As long as the Qianghu tribe who came into contact with the dragon leader has no problem with their brains, they should not refuse the olive branch of the dragon leader.

Even if the Qianghu tribe's high vigilance against the dragon leader is difficult to eliminate, the Zhulu Leader has a backup plan.

The ant caravan is the backhand.

With the full support of the Zhulu Leader, the ant caravan controlled by Su San has developed rapidly, the caravan's transaction volume and profitability have continued to increase, and the caravan level has also been rubbed upward, and now the ants have developed to a fourth-level caravan, and the caravan has more and more stops. If the dragon leader can't open the situation for a long time, the Ant Caravan will inevitably adjust its business center, set up more stops in the Hetao area, and gradually open up the Hetao market as a neutral caravan.

Grain was one of the three main commodities of the Ant Caravan, and the grain merchants were the most respected group of merchants, which was true in both Han and foreign areas. On the other hand, Zhu Jun's transfer into the Hetao area is bound to have an impact on the existing order of the Hetao, after all, he is the chariot and cavalry general of the Han Dynasty, and the famous ministers will be stationed, and Qianghu will have to think about the consequences if he wants to spread wild, which can make the expansion of ants in the Hetao smoother.

However, unless absolutely necessary, the fish do not want to use the large resources of ants.

Although the development of the ant is very rapid, it is an out-and-out nascent caravan, many of the manpower comes from the Su family and the Zhang family to support, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping have their own joint caravan, it is impossible to provide unlimited support.

The Su family and the Zhang family sent a large number of people out of helplessness, and it was really the ant caravan that expanded too quickly.

A new caravan started from scratch, and it would take a lot of people to build the basic framework, and the Su family and the Zhang family thought that it would be good to work hard for a while. Who knew that as soon as the framework was put up, Yu Buzhi ordered the caravan to enter the Bajun market, and there was a time when the topic of "ant invasion" spread in the business world. finally gained a foothold in Ba County, and then asked to enter the Hetao area......

The speed of development of the ant caravan is not an exaggeration to describe it as riding a rocket.

Objectively speaking, the development process of ants can be regarded as an opportunity to keep coming to the door, especially in the later stages.

Entering the Ba County market was because Zhao was about to be suffocated by the suppression at that time, and there was an urgent need for a foreign caravan to break the situation.

The situation in the Loop is somewhat different, and the commercial profits of alien occupation of land are actually frighteningly high. Many merchants dare not set foot in it, either because they are worried about safety, or because of geographical or business scope considerations, after all, most caravans will have relatively stable traditional areas and business areas, such as ant caravans, which are set up everywhere regardless of the south and north, which is something that only a few big merchants will do. The ant caravan served the development of the territory, and unknowingly completed a grand commercial layout.

As the saying goes, too big a step pulls the egg, and too fast development means that the foundation is unstable.

That's how it was with the ant caravan.

The core value of ants is to serve the development of the territory, and whether the other is good or not is secondly, the food and material supply of the three major bases of the deer must not have problems, and the commercial stops must be arranged around the three bases. Next is the main business of the caravan, the three main businesses in addition to Baxiangqing is the territory of self-made, war horses and grain are dependent on external procurement, Youzhou war horses, the Central Plains and Jiangnan several major grain producing areas need long-term operation, setting up caravan stops is an inevitable thing.

With the current size and layout of the ant caravan, the caravan stops are already very tight, and expanding its influence in the Hetao will inevitably reduce the investment of manpower and strongholds in other directions, and frankly the ants do not have enough strength.

Therefore, it is best for the Hetao market to be developed by Longling.

You must know that the Qianghu tribe is captive and plundering, and the merchants are inevitably coveted by the Qianghu, and the ant caravan walks on the grassland with goods, just like a child running around the market with jewelry. The deterrent power established in the early stage of the dragon collar is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no matter how much money there is, the Qianghu tribe who covets the goods must also think twice before making a move.

The Hetao Qianghu market is a hope to get rid of the current situation of economic imbalance, but it will take time.

In a short period of time, it is not realistic to rely on exports to solve the problem of overproductivity.

Export growth is yet to come, and another breakthrough is consumption.

The villagers enjoy high salaries and high benefits, and the villagers have a lot of spare money at their disposal, and they will spend money if they have money, so that the villagers will spend their spare money in the territory, and the funds will naturally flow back to the territory through taxation and sales. Theoretically, if the villagers' consumption is high enough, there should be no problem in balancing the balance of payments.

Expanding domestic demand and encouraging consumption is an important way to boost the economy of the territory.

But consumption cannot fundamentally solve the dilemma of chasing deer and collar.

The reason is simple, consumption is not high enough.

In the game, all the villagers in the territory are employees of the lord, except for one or two buildings that are attached to the system when the lord first takes over the territory, the other buildings are invested and built by the territory, and the ownership naturally belongs to the territory. The lord is equivalent to the boss, the villagers are employees, the "boss" has a good conscience, and solves the housing problem for all the villagers for free, so the villagers do not need to buy a house, nor are they eligible to buy land, they rely on labor to solve their own food, clothing, housing and transportation, and have more spare money, whether to invest in entertainment and luxury depends on personal wishes.

The expenses of daily living account for only a small part of the income of the deer chasers.

For example, in the game, they all eat three meals a day, and no matter how high the salary is, they will be full after eating three meals a day. Each player's territory is not isolated from the world, commodity prices are linked to the market, what is the price of food outside, and the food in the territory is roughly that price. Instead of raising the price privately, it is better to hope that the villagers will collectively make stupidity and have a high salary, and they will be forced to fortify ten times a day...... Well, by the way, adjust the working hours so that everyone can eat hycedes.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation cannot recover much money, which is the biggest problem faced by the deer leader.

In fact, education also has the potential to recover funds, after all, literacy was a great thing in that era, and the Chinese people have always attached importance to education investment, private schools and schools can be charged, but the implementation of free education is carried out.

There is a lot of money in the hands of the deer chasers, and more and more of it.

Hiding wealth from the people is definitely not a slogan in the deer competition.

But the people are too rich, and the territory is too poor, and it seems that they can't bear it......

Yu Buzhi has realized that entertainment and luxury are the key to driving consumption in the territory.

The theater of Zhulu Ling is always full, and Deputy City Lord Yi, who sees the money, has been clamoring for a price increase, but was unceremoniously vetoed by Yu Buzhi. It's not that the fish is unwise or doesn't want to raise the price, but the theater provides so few entertainment items, why don't you do a few more shows and then raise the price, there must be a reason not!

The villagers are also very interested in the cloth, Ba Xiangqing and silk, but in addition to the silk is not so fierce, the cloth and Ba Xiangqing are in short supply, and they can export to make money outside, so why do they need the villagers in the territory to join in the fun? In the final analysis, there are too few luxury goods, and the Zhulu Collar has begun to find ways to introduce more luxury goods from outside, and the territory or caravan comes forward to buy in bulk, plus the appropriate gross profit is sold to the Zhulu villagers, and the territory makes a little money, and by the way, the excess wealth of the people is recovered.

Whether it is to open up the external market or to try to stimulate the domestic demand and consumption in the territory, it will take enough time.

The problem of imbalance in the income and expenditure of the deer collar is not an easy solution.

-- The three major indices of the territory.

After being promoted to a third-tier city, it is expected that a number of new mineral deposits will be discovered within the new territory, and the resource index will be increased from 73 points to 75 points. The economic index rose from 75 to 77 points, and also rose slightly by 2 points, mainly because of the development of the specialty product [Zhang Jisan].

The most exaggerated is resident satisfaction.

The satisfaction of the deer leader has always been very high, and the initial satisfaction rate of 88 points in the third-level city is amazing enough, and the absolute value is terrifying when it is promoted to the first-level capital city and jumps directly to 92 points. You must know that there is no change in the salary and welfare system of the deer leader, some time ago, the conscription, the recent launch of three famous city battles, the dead deer men add up to nearly 3,000 people, many families have lost their relatives, and the satisfaction of the territory will inevitably be affected. The satisfaction of the deer leader bucks the trend, which is obviously directly related to the change of the title of the territory, and the bonus of [the first city in the world] to satisfaction is 5 points higher than that of [the first city in the world].

In any case, 92 points of territory satisfaction is incredible.

If the abundance of money is invincible, the satisfaction of the deer collar is probably unique.

The three major indexes are a high summary of the operation of the territory, compared with the early stage of the third-tier cities, the three major indexes of the deer lead have risen steadily, indicating that the territory management is developing on the good side, and Yu Buzhi is very satisfied.

- Dependent territories.

In the column of the number of subordinate provinces of the deer territory, the value is "24/21".

The actual number of subordinate territories is higher than the maximum number of subordinate territories allowed at this stage, because of the sequelae of the leapfrog system upgrade to occupy the famous city. Occupying two famous cities is equivalent to 6 more subordinate territories, and the number of subordinate territories is overdrawn in advance.

In the Township and City phases, the number of secondary provinces is increased by 2 per upgrade, and in the Capital phase, 3 secondary provinces are added per upgrade. With the current situation of the Zhulu Territory, even if it is promoted to a second-level capital in the future, there is no way to build a new subsidiary territory.
