Chapter 19, the city

Li Xukong got Ning Yue's suggestion, and after implementing tuntian and merchants in Qianzhou, he once again issued a decision to increase economic taxation, ordering every town and village in Qianzhou to jointly choose to raise white-toothed beasts and pig beasts.

As soon as this decree was issued, ordinary people were a little hesitant, but Ning Yue's garrison had already prepared a plan to implement the plan of raising meat, and the army all over Qianzhou moved quickly.

It didn't take much time for Ning Yue's garrison to grasp almost all the tasks of each town, and the outside of the garrison barracks everywhere were sent to many white-toothed beasts for them to raise.

As for the pig beast, this kind of fierce beast will naturally not be raised by civilians, Ning Yue didn't care about Li Void's actions, from the side of the South Barren Mountain, a large number of pig beast adults and cubs were supplemented by the disciples of the Heavenly Wolf Sect, and began to raise.

With these Heavenly Wolf Sect disciples who sincerely belonged to him, Ning Yue was not worried about the failure of the breeding plan, and then put his mind on the matters of expanding the army and reorganizing the army.

At this time, Ning Yue had extremely sufficient financial resources in his hands, and the products produced by the four major food groups were in short supply, and the follow-up of raising carnivorous monsters in his hands in the shadows also made him make a lot of money, plus a large amount of grain hoarded in the fields everywhere, all of which became a powerful economic pillar for the expansion of the army and the whole army.

Under the consultation of Ning Yue and many henchmen, this time the army under his command was expanded by tens of thousands of people, and some non-combat soldiers were mainly added first.

Most of these soldiers were assigned to logistics, responsible for breeding, tuntian, food processing and production, and even full-time merchant sales, which can be regarded as a special classification of the garrison arms and the separation of these non-combat arms.

In addition, Ning Yue also took the opportunity to reorganize and train tens of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, and built them with strong financial resources, expanding the elite cavalry that escaped from the clouded leopard ride to nearly 20,000 cavalry, all of which were equipped with neat and unified bronze horse mounts.

In addition, the infantry elite army also selected 60,000 elite soldiers, trained every day, and was equipped with extremely complete weapons and equipment from head to toe, and almost every elite soldier was armed to the teeth.

There are also 20,000 soldiers, selected as reserve troops, who usually work with non-combat troops, and more often than not, in intensive training so that each soldier can become a qualified alternate soldier.

A few months passed quickly, and Ning Yue's garrison had already turned the entire Qianzhou into an iron bucket.

With nothing to do, Ning Yue's Qiankun Sect began to recruit disciples, and selected loyal disciples from them to cultivate, which was also used as a candidate force for the garrison.

Ning Yue was getting fuller, but at this time he found that the expanding food processing factory seemed to have reached a bottleneck, and the profits created for a period of time did not increase compared with the same period.

Ning Yue couldn't help but wonder, he had been involved in the processing of these modern foods, and knew that the four major groups were continuing to expand the variety of main products without waiting for the market to be saturated, but now it seemed that it had no effect.

Luo Yaoji came to report to Ning Yue in a timely manner, she also found the problem of food processing and sales, and after research, she found the crux of it.

"So you say that the sales volume has not increased much now, because Qianzhou itself is backward and the route of the merchants is too simple?"

Ning Yue looked at the information sent by Luo Yaoji, and couldn't help but look up at the woman with a cold expression, and asked.

"That's right. Luo Yaoji replied affirmatively: "Originally, I also thought that Qianzhou encouraged merchants, and the number of merchants more than ten times more than the original one out of thin air could revitalize the entire Qianzhou's commerce, but later I found that Qianzhou's own business discovery was actually extremely slow, and it was only by relying on a few groups to raise the level that the previous prosperity appeared." ”

"So?" Ning Yue knew that Luo Yaoji was prepared, so he couldn't help but humbly ask for advice.

Luo Yaoji seemed to be familiar with Ning Yue's liking to speak with sufficient data and data, so she gave some of the information in her hand to Ning Yue, and at the same time opened the large map of Qianzhou hanging on the wall, stood under the map, and prepared a little before she opened her mouth to state her opinion.

"After I came into contact with some merchants, I learned that there are few such large cities in Qianzhou except for Qianyuan City and Irichuan City. Therefore, it is difficult for those towns in Qianzhou to gather more people to support the operation of commercial circulation, which limits the scale of commercial expansion. ”

Ning Yue looked at the information in his hand carefully, and asked directly without raising his head: "So you are saying that Qianzhou has restricted the development of commerce because of its own reasons, and if these problems can be solved, it will be able to increase the trade quota?"

Luo Yaoji nodded confidently and replied: "The conclusion drawn from my analysis is this, if you want to increase the trade quota, you must carry out large-scale trade cities in Qianzhou Jiaduo, only in this way can you attract more caravans from the surrounding areas to come and stimulate a steady increase in trade volume." ”

Ning Yue pondered for a moment, looked at Luo Yaoji very seriously, and said: "Since you have such an analysis, I will support your proposal, from now on, you can expand the original city in several large tuntian locations controlled by our garrison, forcibly relocate the surrounding population into the city, and create a large enough trade city according to your analysis." ”

Luo Yaoji didn't expect Ning Yue to just listen to her analysis, so she boldly gave orders according to her analysis, and her eyes couldn't help but ripple with a wave of color, she lowered her head and laughed lowly, and when she looked up again, her expression was full of confidence.

"Since you believe in me, I will definitely do this well. ”

Luo Yaoji got the order, and according to Ning Yue's suggestion, she selected a few suitable ground in the territory controlled by the garrison and began to build a suitable trade city.

Li Xukong had also been paying attention to Ning Yue's side secretly, and after discovering that the garrison had begun to expand some cities on a large scale, he was extremely puzzled, and felt that Ning Yue's actions this time were extremely strange.

Li Xukong couldn't understand the reason for Ning Yue's expansion of the city at all, and felt that there was no difference between the city and the large and small villages and towns, the population was the same, how could it have any impact on trade.

In short, this time, Li Void still didn't interfere with the changes that Ning Yue was trying, and focused his attention on other places.

With the support of tens of thousands of troops, Luo Yaoji completed Ning Yue's order very quickly.

Just a few months later, several large cities have appeared in various parts of Qianzhou.

Some of these cities expanded the existing big cities, and some simply united several villages in the tuntian area to build new big cities and move all the people into it.

At this time, Li Xukong was surprised to find that after the emergence of the prototype of these large cities, the economic strength of the entire Qianzhou jumped several times.

This reality made Li Xukong couldn't help but be amazed, and when Ning Yue was mentioned again, there was always an additional business wizard in his mouth.
