The cottage has Langzhong, a teacher, and a cook.

There are also 300 villagers who came to the cottage one after another after the old village chief came.

The entire cottage now has almost 2,000 people, and there are finally fireworks.

And recruitment and militia groups are also underway.

Finally, the most difficult first step of the long march of 10,000 miles has been taken.

So this night, Lin Fan slept exceptionally well.

It was only early the next morning that he was woken up by a knock on the door outside.

"Who!"

Lin Fan asked irritably.

I only heard the outside say: "Lord Lin, it's an old man." ”

"It turned out to be the old village chief!"

As soon as he heard the voice of the old village chief, Lin Fan's go-up anger immediately dissipated.

"Wait a minute, I'll get up and get dressed."

Lin Fan put on his clothes as quickly as he could.

Only then did he open the door and invite the old village chief in.

Enter and sit opposite each other on the arhat bed.

Lin Fan didn't talk to the old village chief blindly, but asked straight to the point: "Old village chief, why did you come to me so early?" ”

Before the old village chief came, he had actually thought of a rhetoric.

It's just that now, he doesn't know how to speak.

After all, Lin Fan and the old village owner were the benefactors of these people, and they accepted them when they were oppressed by the government and had no food to pay taxes.

"This ...... The old man does have something to say, but he doesn't know whether to say it or not. ”

According to Lin Fan's experience of reading many books in his previous life, if someone asks like this, it is generally not a good word.

If someone else is coming, ask.

Lin Fan will say directly, since he doesn't know whether to talk about it, then don't talk about it.

But now it was the steady old village chief who asked this.

He also wanted to hear what was going on.

"Old village chief, if you have something to say, you don't need to worry about me here."

"Well, the old man will say it directly."

Seeing that Lin Fan looked like he was listening carefully, the old village chief breathed a sigh of relief.

Tell the real reason why I came to Lin Fan this time.

"My lord, this conscription of soldiers and militia is indeed the most urgent thing in the cottage at present, but, can you consider the people in the village? Nowadays, almost all the men in the villagers' families have joined the army or joined the militia group, and the land allocated to them is only managed by women and children, and even if it is planted, I am afraid that there will be no harvest in the coming year. ”

Lin Fan really hadn't thought about this question.

Even in his previous life, he was just a science and engineering man, and he had no farming experience at all.

When he came to this world, he did things, and he also thought carefully and combined with the situation in the TV series in his previous life.

Unexpectedly, I still made the mistake of talking on paper.

I didn't expect that in ancient times, farming would require strong labor.

Now the old village chief has given him a wake-up call.

He hurriedly got up and saluted to the old village chief: "Thank you for the reminder from the old village chief, otherwise it will be a good deed, but the people who will harm it will complain." ”

Seeing that Lin Fan listened to his words, the old village chief breathed a sigh of relief.

returned the salute to Lin Fan: "My lord, you are the benefactor of the old man and the villagers, you don't need to bow like this." ”

"Old village chief, in the future, you and the official will not need these false courtesies."

Lin Fan said while holding the old village chief who was saluting.

After the old village chief sat down again, Lin Fan continued to ask: "Since the old village chief is here, there must be a way to deal with it, so it's better to come and hear it." ”

"The old man once worked as a clerk in the army and knew some things about conscription."

The old village chief first explained, lest Lin Fan misunderstand him for talking nonsense.

Seeing that Lin Fan was still listening carefully, he continued: "The adults allocate the fields, and do not charge taxes, a family of six needs twenty acres of land, so they can live well, cultivate twenty acres of land, if there are ploughing cattle, two strong laborers are enough." “

When Lin Fan said this to the old village chief, his brain was rapidly calculating how many people could be supported within a radius of twenty miles from the cottage.

Of course, he wasn't completely distracted, so when the old village chief paused, he smiled at the old village chief: "Old village chief, keep talking, I'm listening." ”

"So the old man suggested that if there are three strong laborers in the family, one can join the army, and the other can join the militia group, and those who join the militia can also help the family farm in addition to training, and they can also take up arms to protect the cottage in wartime."

"If there are only two strong laborers in the family, only one person can join the militia."

"If there is only one strong laborer in the family, it is better not to recruit adults, otherwise something really happens, and the family will be finished."

When the old village chief said this, he saw Lin Fan looking at him thoughtfully.

The old village chief thought that Lin Fan didn't agree!

Hurriedly added: "The old man is talking about having a family, those who are only single and strong, or some people who want to get ahead and don't like farming, adults can directly conscript them into the army." ”

"Of course, adults can also send people to various places to publicize the various measures of our Qinglong Village to attract more displaced people, so that the cottage can develop at the fastest speed."

After the old village chief finished speaking, Lin Fan did not reply immediately.

Instead, he closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, and he found that this plan was indeed the safest.

It can also increase the number of soldiers, but will not overdraw the people's strength.

At this moment, Lin Fan was deeply aware of his shortcomings, and with such a person as the old village chief, it could be said that he had picked up a treasure.

So Lin Fan got up again and said to the old village chief: "The old village chief is worthy of being born in military Chinese, and the consideration of the problem is comprehensive, and in the future, the coordination and coordination of large and small affairs in the village will trouble the old village chief, and please don't prevaricate." ”

After speaking, Lin Fan shook it to the end.

The old village chief felt unprecedented respect at this time.

Even if he was a clerk in the army and worked diligently, he had never been so valued.

He, an old man in a sixtieth year, actually had a bit of pride at this moment.

Hurriedly hugged Lin Fan: "My lord, the old man agreed, but in the future, you can still call the old man by his name Huang Shen." ”

"Then how can it be done, you are an elder, and the kid will call you Uncle Huang in the future!"

"This ......"

The old village chief still wanted to refuse.

Lin Fan smiled and said: "Uncle Huang, don't shirk, you have the identity of my uncle, and you can work better in the future." ”

"Okay, then the old man will take advantage of the adults."

The old village chief saw that Lin Fan said so.

If he refuses again, he will not know how to lift.

So I agreed.

Then the two talked a lot more about everything.

In the end, Lin Fan found that the old village chief was worthy of being a former military Chinese book and knew a lot of things.

There are many things that even he, a descendant of generations, is not very clear.

At the same time, I have a deeper understanding of the terrible situation of Da Zhou under the warlord pattern.

Whether it is military households or ordinary people, most of them are living in dire straits.
