Chapter 47 The Construction of a New Countryside in Another World
On the middle avenue of Taiping Town, on one side is a meal full of food, on the other side is a crowd of black presses, except for a small number of people who are still good and have no gaffes, most of the people are drooling at those rice steamed buns and stewed meat, but in view of Wang Zhao's presence, no one dares to take a step beyond Lei Chi.
Wang Zhao saw that there were a lot of people, picked up the microphone, stood on a table, and began to speak in public, his voice came from far away through the two large speakers next to him.
"Fellow villagers, some of you know me, some of you don't know me, let me introduce myself first, my name is Wang Zhao, and I am a cultivator on the hill outside our town. Our sect is called the Science and Technology Flow Crossing Gate, which is good at making magic weapons and equipment puppets, and a few days ago I was ordered by the elders of the sect to go down the mountain and open a few small businesses in our town, intending to make some money. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I had no intention of making trouble, but the old man Luo in the town fell in love with my family business, and teamed up with the old demon of Jinbao to suppress and bully me many times, vainly trying to take away my family business and rob my shop. Although I am an honest man, I also have three points of anger, two days ago, I was angry, the old demon of Jinbao was killed, I wanted to kill the people in Luofu, but I didn't expect that many injustices would kill themselves, Luofu family was killed by the chaos, it can be regarded as full of evil, and he died well. ”
The townspeople on the avenue were startled by the sound coming from the speaker at first, and then they were indifferent when they heard Wang Zhao's remarks, and now they were most concerned about whether they could eat later, and they had already heard about Wang Zhao's killing of Jinbao Ancestor and the Luo Fu family, and they couldn't attract much attention from them.
Seeing that the birds below were silent, Wang Zhao looked at the food in a daze, and didn't care, and continued: "Now that the family in Luofu has died, from now on, all the industrial land in Luofu will belong to me, and anyone who is not satisfied can come to me." ”
Still no one spoke.
Wang Zhao had no choice but to take a fierce medicine and said: "From today onwards, the rent of all tenants who cultivate my land will be reduced to sixty percent. ”
As soon as he said this, there was a commotion below, and some tenant farmers were already showing a slight joy.
Wang Zhao continued: "In a few days, I will open a school in the town, and if there are children under the age of 14, as long as they are sent to the school to study, they can eat and drink for free in the school, and the tuition fee is free of charge, and the families of the students in the school can also enjoy a discount of 30% of the land rent. In other words, as long as you send your children to school, the rent can be reduced to 30%. ”
When the townspeople heard this, they couldn't believe it at first, but the scene was quiet for a while, but after a while, the whole audience resounded with a buzzing sound from ear to ear.
Wang Zhao had already expected it, completely ignoring their reactions, and then said: "Also, in the future, I plan to build roads, dig rivers, and build water conservancy in our town, there are many projects to be done. ”
As soon as this remark came out, the residents of the town present were even more surprised and couldn't believe it, they used to work for Luofu, which one didn't bring their own dry food for nothing, they never thought that there were still people in the world who worked for wages, they used to think about it, looking forward to Master Luo when he was conscripted and served, as long as he could manage the food, such requirements were rarely met.
Some of the townspeople immediately showed a look of surprise, feeling that they had suffered most of their lives, and now they had finally met a good master. However, some townspeople didn't believe it at all, and laughed in their hearts that this was impossible, and these landlords and old fortunes began to make fun of us again.
Seeing that the townspeople below had different reactions, Wang Zhao didn't care, and continued: "There is another thing, although my faction has a long history, but the scale is not large, now I want to open the door of convenience, and I want to recruit soldiers to patrol and protect the family in the whole town and even the nearby neighboring villages, with preferential treatment and full food, and those who are interested can contact me, Senior Brother Zhao." If you want to join me to work for me, you can also contact my senior sister Ding, as long as you follow me to work hard, not to mention more, there is definitely food, drink and a house to live. Okay, that's all for today, everyone can come here, I have prepared some food, everyone can go and have a good meal. ”
As soon as Wang Zhao's words fell, the townspeople in the audience were immediately shocked, but it was time to eat, and they finally waited for this moment. Isn't it because I came here today for this stutter?
Wang Zhao didn't dare to let the townspeople go up and eat casually, so they had to fight, and these people had no oil and water in their stomachs, so they let go of eating, and they had to die a few.
Wang Zhao ordered them to line up, and those who were disobedient were directly arrested and escorted away, and after arresting a few who did not understand the rules, the discipline improved significantly, and they lined up one by one to get their share.
Wang Zhao stipulated that each person should have a bowl of pork stewed vermicelli, plus a bowl of dry rice and a piece of cake. Wang Zhao's plan was to impress the townspeople once and for all, so that even if a long time had passed, they would still remember tonight vividly.
Wang Zhao succeeded, tonight's full meal has not been forgotten by many townspeople for the rest of their lives, even after many years, some old people will talk about it, and they will say that the meal that day is the best meal they have ever eaten in their lives.
The main reason is that these people have never eaten a full meal before, and there are many people who have not eaten meat for several years or decades, and now they have this big bowl of fragrant stew to eat, and some people cry while eating, all saying that after eating this meal, it is worth it even if they die, and some people say that if so-and-so in the family can persist today, it would be so good.
It wasn't until the end that Wang Zhao had sent all the people out, and then he released those who were disobedient and didn't understand the rules, and gave each of them a bowl of rice and a bowl of meat.
Wang Zhao finished distributing the food, and when he had nothing to do for a while, he looked at the townspeople who were eating different things in front of him according to the light emitted by the street lamps on the side of the road, and began to calculate: Now it seems that there is no one to oppose his own ownership of the Luofu family property, but he doesn't know how many people are willing to sell themselves to himself, whether he wants to erect a model and give these people the benefits of seeing and mixing with their own knowledge.
Wang Zhao quickly thought of a plan, and then saw that he was fine, said hello to Lilac Zhao Wu, and returned to the backyard of the store to launch the treasure gourd to return to the modern world. Since he still had to prepare for the sowing in a few days, he had to hurry back to modern times to buy seeds, shovels, hoes, pumps, etc., and the time was urgent, so he really didn't dare to delay.
Wang Zhao's speech was effective, and the next morning, dozens of townspeople came looking for work. In the absence of the king, Lilac took out some shovels from the shop according to the original plan, and took them to repair the canals and roads, so as to prepare for the sowing in a few days. After the day's work, Lilac really rewarded the five people who did the best work according to Wang Zhao, half a piece of pig's head braised pork per person.
These pig's head meat from Lilac are all vacuum-packed cooked food bought in the modern world, and they can be eaten when they are torn apart, and they have brought a lot of them through this crossing, which is enough for Lilac to improve the enthusiasm of these townspeople.
After a night of cultivation, Zhao Wu also felt a sense of qi and was overjoyed, and set off to recruit troops in high spirits after dawn. His luck was not bad, and he recruited more than a dozen in one day. Zhao Wu settled these recruits in the wing room of Luofu, and planned to take them to the barracks when fifty were recruited.
At the same time, some townspeople also began to send their children to school one after another, and Lilac sorted out a large warehouse next to Luofu and used it as a teaching place for the time being, but unfortunately there are no teaching books and teaching materials now, so these children can only be raised first. Lilac also deliberately sent two Luofu cooks to the school to cook, even if they can't learn things, but the children's food is indispensable. Due to the lack of people to manage, Lilac had to send Shi Qi's daughter-in-law and young mother to the new school to help take care of the growing number of children.
When the young lady arrived at the new school, her son Xiao Shi naturally transferred to the new school, and even the other children in the private school where Xiao Shi used to study also wanted to go to the new school, after all, everyone said that the food there was very good, and there was meat for a meal.
