Chapter Seventy-One: Conditions for Upgrading Towns

Guo Dapang took the opportunity to ask: "What is the news?" ”

"Pay first before I can say" Zhao Ergou did not fall into the scheme.

Hearing Zhao Ergou's reply, Guo Dapang showed a depressed look: "As long as the news you say is really worth the price, are you afraid that our Changhe Village will not be able to repay the debt?" ”

"That's right," Zhao Ergou nodded, agreeing with Guo Dapang's words.

looked at Jia Nian and asked meaningfully: "Do you want to build Changhe Village into a city?" ”

"Repair? Build a city? Jia Nian and Guo Dapang were both shocked at the same time, if the large-scale business shocked Zhao Ergou, then now they are also shocked by the city.

Sure enough, feng shui takes turns, but it's worth it.

Looking at the surprised look of the two, Zhao Ergou laughed proudly. Through these transactions, he came to a surprising conclusion, that is, the God of Wealth is not short of money. In that case, why not let them build a city? There are no soldiers in Changhe Village, and it is always the weakness of the water village that has been exposed to the edge of Chaohu Lake, but once the city is built, then their safety will be guaranteed, and at the same time, the water village will be more assured.

As for whether this will weaken the impact of Shuizhai on Changhe Village, this point is not in Zhao Ergou's consideration.

How can the city walls resist the overwhelming army of white sails like tigers and wolves.

Uh, well, it's the White Sail Water Thief.

"Aren't you two very interested in this," Zhao Ergou asked slowly, looking like he was holding a wisdom bead.

Looking at Zhao Ergou who was pretending to be in a posture, Jia Nian could only quickly and respectfully reply: "We in Changhe Village want to build a city in our dreams, and we also ask Guizhai to point out a clear road."

"Actually, this matter is difficult to say, and simple to say," Zhao Ergou explained.

Guo Dapang hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened carefully, lest he miss a word.

Looking at the expressions of the two, Zhao Ergou enjoyed it greatly: "In the final analysis, it is on the top of one word"

"What word?" Jia Nian and Guo Dapang asked at the same time.

Zhao Ergou didn't reply, but looked at the water thief on the side: "Go, go to my room and bring the drawings."

"Yes," the thief bowed, turned and ran towards the thief.

Looking at the distant back, Zhao Ergou retracted his gaze: "That drawing is my gift to Village Chief Jia, I hope Village Chief Jia can like it"

"I like it, of course I like it," Jia Nian hurriedly replied.

Guo Dapang thought quickly in his heart, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in this Zhao Ergou's gourd.

Footsteps were heard, and the water thief strode up to everyone with a drawing.

Zhao Ergou took the drawings, turned around and handed them to Jia Nian.

"The drawings of the city wall can only be built in an administrative area above the village level"

Looking at this brief message, Jia Nian and Guo Dapang glanced at each other at the same time, both showing happy and puzzled looks. Sure enough, it's one word, isn't the difference between the village and the town just one word?

"As long as Changhe Village becomes Changhe Town, you can build a city wall according to the drawings," Zhao Ergou slowly explained after seeing Jia Nian take the drawings.

Jia Nian was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly put away the drawings, for fear that Zhao Ergou would regret it: "Big fat, give money"

"Okay" Guo Dapang replied loudly, and hurriedly handed the small wooden box in his hand to Zhao Ergou.

Zhao Ergou looked at the small wooden box handed over, and his face almost smiled like a chrysanthemum: "Does Village Chief Jia have any questions?" If not, I'll arrange for the refugees to be escorted."

"By the way, do you need a tent?" Zhao Ergou added.

Jia Nian thought of the price increase incident and shook his head quickly: "No tents"

"It's just that I still have some doubts about how to upgrade Changhe Village to Changhe Town," Jia Nian said to him when he saw that Zhao Ergou wanted to leave happily.

Zhao Ergou carefully held the small wooden box, opened it again, and counted them one by one.

After confirming that the amount was indeed fifty gold, the smile on his face became even thicker: "This matter is easy, I can talk to you in detail"

"First of all, we need two thousand people, and secondly, we need a hundred soldiers" Zhao Ergou paused a little when he said this, and looked around Jia Nian and Guo Dapang: "If I'm not mistaken, there are 24 soldiers in your Changhe Village."

"Exactly" Jia Nian replied, but there was a bad premonition in his heart.

Zhao Ergou's smile became a little thicker: "I will arrange 76 young men for you, you only need to make them soldiers, and they can naturally be upgraded to Changhe Town."

"No, didn't you say that it was 100 young people?" Guo Dapang shouted loudly, this person is too undisciplined.

Zhao Ergou raised his eyebrows: "When did you say that you will be given 100 young people?" ”

"Didn't you say that?" Guo Dapang asked.

Zhao Ergou completely ignored it, what a joke. First give them the blueprints of the city wall, and then give them the method of upgrading Changhe Village. If you are giving them a large number of young people, isn't that cultivating enemies for yourself?

Although he is a businessman, he will not be confused in the matter of life and death.

Besides, the big boss can't get over it.

"Originally, we only planned to give 50 young and strong people, but now the increase to 74 has exceeded the bottom line. I hope your village will not be too greedy, so as not to cause misunderstanding between us," Zhao Ergou replied loudly.

Then his tone softened: "There are a hundred soldiers in Changhe Village, and with the addition of the city wall, it is enough to resist the water thief forces except for our Baifan Water Village."

"Instead of being more young and strong, it is better to have some old and weak women and children, so as not to cause a big disaster because those young and strong people make trouble" Zhao Ergou said half-persuading, half-threatening.

Although Jia Nian was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't show it, and now the white sail water thieves are powerful and don't say that he still has a plan. Even if you want nothing, this is not a good time to turn your face: "What Guizhai said is extremely true, those young and strong are unruly, and it is the limit that I can have 100 soldiers in Changhe Village, after all, the strength of Chaoxian City is only like this"

"Yes, yes, if Village Chief Jia can think like this, then it will be a happy situation. If you develop with peace of mind, we can also get benefits, right? Zhao Ergou said with a grin.

Guo Dapang also reacted, and suddenly smiled: "My head is an elm pimple, or Guizhai thinks thoughtfully"

"Okay, if you don't have anything to do, I'll arrange for the escort of the refugees," Zhao Ergou said slowly.

Jia Nian and Guo Dapang bowed: "Farewell"

"Farewell" Zhao Ergou returned the salute to the two.

Looking at Jia Nian and Guo Dapang who were far away, Zhao Ergou fell into deep thought.

Still want to be young? 100 is the limit, and if you want more, you are looking for death. Is it true that our water village is muddy? Would you do such a stupid thing?.

The purpose of selling the old and weak women and children is to lose a huge burden, and at the same time, it can weaken the financial resources of Changhe Village, and use these financial resources to quickly increase the strength of the water village.

During this time, the waves in Chaohu Lake are turbulent, and something big may happen soon.

Thinking of this, there was a trace of sorrow in his eyes, and he turned around and walked towards the water village.
