Chapter 371
Ten years later, the valley in the eagle's beak ridge has changed greatly, with high-rise buildings rising from the ground, and the valley is bustling, with people farming, young and strong people training, and old people grazing with children.
The valley is already very large, even if it can accommodate 100,000 people, it can still be self-sufficient. Some of the highlands that were previously used to grow food, and the larger spaces occupied by houses are now being used to double the expansion of the valley.
So there was a small grassland, with hundreds of sheep and more than a hundred cattle, and twenty or thirty horses. Eagle's Beak Ridge traded with the outside world, and sold some of the products in the valley to the outside world, cement, paper, and soap. In exchange for a lot of grain for the eagle's beak ridge, several farms, chickens, ducks, pigs, and fish ponds were built in the valley.
The people in the valley have three meals a day, except for breakfast, each meal has meat, which is in strong contrast with the outside world, and the people here are rich, without worrying about food and clothing, so the money earned in addition to buying some necessary raw materials and medicinal materials are all exchanged for food, and distributed to the people in the nearby county town.
The common people and displaced people are grateful to Eagle's Beak Ridge, and the local officials also have a good impression of Eagle's Beak Ridge, so no one dares to be embarrassed when they come to trade.
Trade here can drive the income of the county, and the distribution of grain, the black people and the displaced people can make the county more stable, and the displaced people and the people will definitely not riot when they have food.
It has also driven more industries, food, clothing, housing and transportation, so that the income of these local people has skyrocketed, which is a political achievement for officials, so they will not only not be embarrassed, but also ensure their safety.
At the beginning, the owner of the village in Eagle's Beak Ridge did not agree with Ji Cheng to do this, but Ji Cheng agreed after analyzing the pros and cons. If you just let the people in the valley cultivate, then you will have a large number of idlers during the slack time, which is a waste of labor and will also develop a lazy nature.
As for not letting too much money into Hawk's Beak Ridge is to avoid some forces from peeping, money can make people crazy, if other people see a large amount of money entering Hawk's Beak Ridge, they will do everything to seize Hawk's Beak Ridge, so it is the best choice for money not to enter Hawk's Beak Ridge.
The purpose of distributing food to the people is to let outsiders know that Eagle's Beak Ridge is not afraid of being besieged by others, and to earn money for some local families is so that they can take care of Eagle's Beak Ridge a little more.
The products sold in Eagle's Beak Ridge are all in cooperation with some local families, and they act as agents to resell them to foreign merchants, and they earn more than Eagle's Beak Ridge, and most of the grain handed over to Eagle's Beak Ridge is old grain, which is not worth much money, and can be exchanged for Eagle's Beak Ridge products, so their family is richer and raises more private soldiers.
And there is no rebellion of the displaced people, and the rebels can't fight here, they have already transferred most of their money to buy properties in Beijing, and they also invest in those rebels with more potential, so whether there is a change of dynasty in the future or not, their family can continue.
Ten years has also made the owner of the village completely trust Ji Cheng and a few of them, and intends to pass on the position of the owner of the village to Ji Cheng, this year the owner of the village is more than ninety, and his body is not as healthy as when he first saw him, and he is also powerless to manage things in the valley.
"I called you here today to pass on my position as the master of the village to you, and to marry my youngest granddaughter to you."
"The owner of the village, I will not accept the position of the owner of the village, you have eight sons, more than fifty and grandchildren, you should choose one of them!" Ji Cheng refused.
Now Ji Cheng just wants to live a stable life for a while, and when he returns to hell, he will have no stable life to live, so Ji Cheng doesn't want to let himself be too tired.
"It's because I have so many children and grandchildren, I don't know who to pass it on, and they are not as capable as you. I can tell you that I can develop this place better, and I can go with peace of mind. ”
"Lord, this is just a small place, with the ability of your children and grandchildren, it can be managed very well, why don't you make trouble for me, even if your children and grandchildren have no opinion now, but what about their subordinates? People will change, no matter how much I do for everyone, I am always an outsider, and there will definitely be people who are not convinced, so I can't agree. ”
"Okay, since you don't agree to me, I won't be reluctant, I hope you can continue to assist the next village master." The owner of the village saw that Ji Cheng really didn't want to be the owner of the village, and he didn't force it anymore, but he hoped that Ji Cheng could assist the next owner of the village.
"I will never shirk within my ability." Ji Cheng should be requested by the owner of the village.
"Who do you think is the most suitable child or grandchild for me?"
"It depends on the owner of the village, whether you want the juniors to continue to guard this place or open up the territory."
"Do you think it's possible for us to do it?"
"Of course you can, there are more than 50,000 people in the entire cottage, each of whom has a certain amount of culture, and tens of thousands of people can be pulled out to serve as local officials, and only with a little experience can sit on one side, so we don't need to recruit those scholars, we don't need to beg them, we can take back the land in their hands and distribute it to the people, and the people will naturally stand on our side. Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and what we have done over the years has gathered a lot of people's hearts, and it is definitely not difficult to take the nearby city as a foundation. ”
Ten years of education, so that the people in the valley to get rid of illiteracy, management knowledge has also been taught a lot, 10,000 troops are training every day, the people will also participate in a month of military training in their spare time, once a year, as long as there is a war can pull another 10,000 troops.
As for the money and food, although most of them were distributed, a small part was still transported back to Eagle's Beak Ridge, and these money and grain were enough to recruit 100,000 troops, and it was not a problem to take a county with 100,000 troops.
Because of the distribution of food here, the number of displaced people has increased dramatically in recent years, and the number of people in Yingfeng County has reached more than 500,000, which is not weak compared with a prosperous county town.
"In this case, then Bo once, even if you can retreat on the night of failure, it is impossible to take Eagle's Beak Ridge without a million troops, plus you are a great talent, I believe that Ze'er will be able to create a great cause."
"Village master, I don't want to leave here, there are a lot of talents in the valley, without me, I can also let Young Master Ze create a great cause." Ji Cheng knew that he was not a qualified strategist, and he was not an internal affairs talent, so Ji Cheng did not agree to assist Zhao Ze in his struggle to dominate the world.
"Mr. filtered, your talent is well known, with your assistance Ze'er will be able to get twice the result with half the effort, please don't shirk sir, if our Zhao family wins the world, our Zhao family will never treat Mr. badly, Ze'er is not a stingy person, when the time comes, I will definitely give you a fief, and title you the king of the opposite sex."
The owner of the village used the honorific title, and called Mr. Ji Cheng, and he decided that Ji Cheng was being modest. Take a look at the latest chapter of "Reopening Hell: The Rise of the Ten Thousand Worlds Claw Book House" to read it for free for the first time.
