Chapter 378: Among the Flowers...
Now, Mu Han's total strength is seriously insufficient, but he has time, if the Yellow Turban Rebellion lasts for a few months, he will have a few months of development.
Let Liu Bowen start making a plan.
In terms of defense, Mu Han asked Jinxi Town, Fengxiang Town, and Iron Blood Town to build the city walls that he had exchanged for merit points.
The city walls will provide a lot of defense, and Mu Han will have a lot of time to plan and build.
In the evening, Mu Han met with Liu Bowen.
"Sir, I have studied the situation of the territory, and the total number of troops must be increased to 70,000 to be enough for current use, and the long-term plan is to increase it to 100,000 within half a year to eight months."
"The production of weapons and equipment also has to keep up."
Liu Bowen also began to calculate according to the data provided by Mu Han.
"Lord, the army is actually easy to manage, but it will affect the investment of other professions, because there are not many highly qualified talents after all."
The total population of the territory is now growing by nearly 10,000 a day.
From deducting about half of the proportion of women, and then deducting children and the elderly, a total of about 4,000 years of young and strong.
There are 4,000 people a day, but there are not so many who are really highly qualified, and Mu Han requires those who are relatively young, highly qualified, and malleable.
The army needs it, and at the same time, all industries also need highly qualified ones.
"After the upgrade, I believe that the population will grow more every day, and priority will be given to the development of the military." Mu Han said.
"As for the money, I will get it done soon, and then the military will be developed, otherwise we may be very passive next."
Liu Bowen agreed, it was really not easy to do at the moment.
100,000 troops, I don't know how much it will cost when the time comes.
However, Mu Han has already decided, he will deal with the money, so Liu Bowen will fully cooperate.
As the territory grows larger and the population grows, food security is very important.
Nowadays, the price of grain has been very high, and Mu Han and they have not sold much, mainly because the population is growing too fast.
Every day, so many people are added, and these have to eat food.
So, arrange more people to fish and farm.
Now the number of people who are farming has been increasing, and with the population exploding, the number of people who are farming can only increase.
Quite simply, it takes time to build a ship, and the dockyards are limited, so fishing cannot be satisfied, and more people can only be used to farm.
This is a matter of balance, Liu Bowen handled it well, while Mu Han didn't care so much.
And Mu Han has a very important thing to do now, which is to take Ning Xi to Taoyuan Town.
To go to Taoyuan Town, there is already a convenient passage, Mu Han and they first take the system carriage to the nearby county seat, and then take a boat to enter.
Mu Han and Liu Bowen planned to rest until late, and early the next morning, Mu Han set off.
At this time, the auction began to prepare nervously, but Mu Han didn't plan to go.
Early the next morning, Mu Han set off, and after waiting for a while, Ningxi also arrived.
"Master, is that place really that mysterious?" Ningxi asked.
"Yes, we will take a few hours to go in by boat, and there is Qingzhou on one side and Jizhou on the other, which belongs to the area of three no matter."
Mu Han led Ning Xi to a ferry port to take a boat.
The boats that come in and out here are all their own, and they only accept people from Taoyuan Town.
In fact, people from Taoyuan Town rarely come out, and they will only come out if Mu Han informs them.
Mu Han and the others took a boat and went in.
"Master, it's all fog here, you can't see anything, and if it's like this for hours, no one really dares to go in."
The hardest thing is to walk in this fog, not to mention the difficulty, there are two forks in the road.
If you go wrong, you will never reach Taoyuan Town.
It takes a few hours in the fog, which is quite boring, but Mu Han hugged Ningxi, and the two talked a lot faster.
The two chatted, during which Mu Han inevitably moved his hands and feet, but there were often bumps here, and Mu Han had no other thoughts.
The two walked for several hours, and arrived in Taoyuan Town in the evening.
"Wow, master, it's so beautiful here."
Entering Taoyuan Town, it is the world of flowers.
There are all kinds of flowers and plants, as well as all kinds of butterflies.
The water is wide, the water is slow, and the water flows slowly.
Girls always like beautiful things, everything here is very beautiful.
The vast and boundless sea of flowers, it is also very beautiful for people to be in it.
"Master, let's go ashore and see."
When she got to the place, Ningxi jumped up and ran to the flowers.
Surrounded by flowers, scents, and beautiful butterflies.
Although it is a small town, it has a population of just over 10,000 people, and its development is very slow.
In addition to growing herbs and some food, there is only one dockyard where ships are built and fed.
As for the population of NPCs, Mu Han plans to start deploying.
First of all, as long as it is self-sufficient, there is no need to develop the military, and the military side Mu Han will be transferred from other territories.
The population here will also be reduced in part, and irrelevant people will be transferred to other territories.
The lack of talent will also be transferred from other territories.
Mu Han only needs to transfer a small part of the army and fortify the entrances and exits, so that people can't enter.
Not much army is needed, it is estimated that two thousand will be enough.
"Master, I really admire you for being able to find such a mysterious place."
The original ecology here is the largest preserved, and Mu Han took Ningxi to the territory.
Here, the road is full of paths, winding paths, and all kinds of flowers and plants on both sides.
It's very comfortable to walk here.
"Master, in the future, when you are relaxing, you can stay here permanently, it is really beautiful."
Ningxi loves it so much.
Once you enter the town, it's really calm.
Only by opening up some farmland and medicine fields, and a few carpenters and tailors, Mu Han did not do the iron-making industry that would pollute the environment.
After entering, Mu Han changed Ningxi to the mayor, and the original mayor to the deputy mayor.
"Master, let's walk around."
After finishing things, Ning Xi couldn't stay anymore and asked Mu Han to walk around with her.
Out of the town, Ning Xi and Mu Han walked towards the depths of the sea of flowers.
The sea of flowers is about half a person high, and between the sea of flowers, there are many grasslands, and the flat grass separates the sea of flowers, which will not be too dense and cannot grow.
Many of these flowers and plants are herbs, and they are a huge treasure trove that can be exploited.
The two of them held hands and walked in this sea of flowers.
"Master, we've only been walking for a while, I'm afraid we've seen thousands of flowers and plants."
Mu Han nodded and said: "At present, there are more than 10,000 kinds of flowers and plants counted in the town, and they are still increasing every day. ”
After walking for more than an hour, Ning Xi picked a lot of flowers and made a wreath for Mu Han, and she also made one herself and wore it on her head.
Perhaps tired of walking, Ning Xi pulled Mu Han to sit on the grass.
"Ningxi, you are wearing this wreath, it's so beautiful."
Sitting on the grass, Ningxi was so charming, it made Mu Han feel spring, hugged Ningxi, and kissed her...
