Chapter 33: Nervousness
For the news that he appeared to be the reincarnation of the god of heaven to save the people.
Lin Fan was very concerned at first.
But when he knew that the news was spread by Wu Yong.
When he asked why, he didn't care.
Although their Qinglong Village is still very weak now, it is not necessary to start building momentum.
In this way, more homeless or displaced people can be attracted to the cottage.
With people, all his official fields can be planted in part.
With people, his team can grow, he can be promoted, and the land area of the cottage can be expanded.
With the land, he can feed more people.
If he can feed more people, his team will get bigger and bigger.
It's a very virtuous cycle.
Just as Lin Fan thought.
It's just that less than a month later, the people who can't survive in the surrounding area, or the displaced people who have fled here, all went to Qinglongzhai to defect.
Originally, there were only 300 households and about 1,800 people in the cottage, but in just one month, it had 2,000 households and 12,000 people.
At this time, the official soldiers of the cottage also reached 900 people, and the militia group had 1,200 people.
In addition, there are some displaced people who have fled, which are actually military households, so they have all participated in the war.
Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the cottage at this time already have some combat effectiveness.
I don't dare to say that it is a strong army, but there is no problem at all in dealing with some bandits or government service thugs and the like.
And the food consumption of so many people is also staggering.
The inventory of Qinglongzhai is slowly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Coupled with the previous size of the cottage, it could only accommodate eight or nine thousand people.
Now there are more than 10,000 people, and the cottage has begun to expand.
Construction is taking place everywhere, building houses, building roads.
Wu Yong and the old village chief, who were in charge of coordinating these, soon realized that if there was no financial and food source if this continued, there would be a crisis in the cottage.
So the two discussed it and found Lin Fan at the same time.
The situation of the cottage was reported truthfully.
For these, Lin Fan had actually thought of it a long time ago.
That is, open source, increase the income of the cottage, and then use the money to buy food.
It's just that at present, his merit value is not enough, and he can't exchange it for advanced equipment.
So in this month, he only prepared a restaurant in the county, and exchanged a recipe book for a very small amount of merit.
Let Yun Niang study and make some modern signature stir-fries.
Yun Niang is very talented in cooking, so their restaurant, in ancient times surrounded by this kind of stew, quickly became popular.
Even some merchants who have eaten modern stir-fried food come to Chen County again, and the first choice is their Hongyun Building.
Although the restaurant is popular, the money earned is still not enough to subsidize the cottage.
So after Lin Fan heard the report of the two, he immediately made a decision.
Go to the Hu family to collect debts.
He's got an IOU. He personally wrote a letter begging for food, handed it to Wu Yong, and asked him to take someone to Hu Papi's house to inform him.
and explained to Wu Yong.
……
Hu Papi received a report that Wu Yong, the military division of Qinglongzhai, asked to see him.
He knew that the other party was not good.
So he said to the housekeeper: "Just say that Master Ben is not there, you can go and receive them and fool them away." ”
The butler understood.
Hu Papi walked to a room next to the hall to hide, wanting to hear what Qinglongzhai would say when he came this time.
Soon, Wu Yong and the six cottage guards around him were welcomed in by the family.
The housekeeper took the initiative to greet Wu Yong with a smile.
"Wu Junshi, you are very welcome to come to my Hu Mansion as a guest, and you are ...... housekeeper in Xia Hu Mansion."
Before the housekeeper could introduce himself, he was interrupted by Wu Yong: "Don't talk nonsense, what about your master?" ”
"It's really unfortunate, my lord has a business to discuss today, he went to the county, and he can come back tomorrow, if Wu Junshi wants to see my lord, you can come back tomorrow."
Although the housekeeper was unhappy in his heart, he thought of the master's instructions,
He could only deal with Wu Yong with a false smile and said slowly.
"What do I see him doing? You can give this to your master, and tell him that the debt should be repaid, and if you don't take the initiative to send it to the cottage, we will bring someone here to pick it up. “
After Wu Yong finished speaking, he threw Lin Fan's handwritten letter to the housekeeper and left with someone.
