Chapter 20: My Territory
In the blink of an eye, Ye Feng changed from an ordinary person in an immortal village to the supreme governor of a town, and he was still a civil and military officer, and he was very busy for a while. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the various immortal kingdoms in the Canglan Realm have very strict control over the officials below, they also spare no effort to control the territory. However, there is also a saying that Xianquan is not lower than the county, but it is relatively lenient for some basic lower-level units such as towns, pavilions, and villages below the county level.
In addition to guaranteeing taxes every year and not pulling flags, there are few questions about it. Because these low-level units have few people, small strength, and not very large territory, and most of them are immortals who don't cultivate much to make a living from farming, even if they can't fix the whole thing. So now Ye Feng is basically the soil emperor of Dongyang Town, as long as there is no big mess, he can toss it casually. Unless it is the same as before, in wartime or emergency, these low-level units will be requisitioned and managed.
Dongyang Town covers an area of nearly 100 miles. However, this hundred miles of land is currently vast and sparsely populated, and there are more than a dozen immortal villages, accounting for one-tenth of the entire Dongyang Town.
Ye Feng now has to consider one of the issues is to attract the population and the other is to recover after the war.
Ye Feng planned to carry out post-war recovery first, restore the vitality and economy of these immortal villages, and then attract the population to come.
Of the more than ten immortal villages, Huangshi Village is currently the largest, most populous and best-restored immortal village, and has already completed post-war recovery. In order not to idle the population, Ye Feng is now carrying out the expansion of the outer city wall of Arashi Village.
Huangshi Village now has a population of nearly 1,000 people, and it will be used as the town seat of Dongyang Town in the future, and the scale of the previous one must be smaller. Now we are expanding the new fairy village. The original Wastestone Village became the inner city, and now it belongs to the second ring, and with the continuous expansion of Ye Feng's power in the future, the current Wastestone Village may also build the third, fourth, and fifth rings......
The expansion of Araishi Village is still going on and is expected to be completed in about a month.
Although the new wall is much larger than the original, it doesn't need such good materials, and the seizures and rewards during this period of time, plus the spirit stones obtained from the system task, are basically enough. Moreover, Ye Feng also made a report to the above and applied for a grant.
But because the entire Luosha County has become Luosha Prefecture, all parts of the country are spending money for expansion, and the finances are also tight, so there is no approval from above. However, although no money was directly distributed, in order to allow the damaged immortal villages to recover as soon as possible and the population to be replenished faster, the taxes of all immortal villages and immortal towns in the entire Rosa Province were halved within three years, and the remaining taxes did not need to be paid to the villages for their own use. This also solved Ye Feng's great predicament and allowed him to save a lot of spirit stones.
In a little more than a month, that is, after the completion of the expansion of the new Barren Stone Village that Ye Feng expected, the new cultivation season will come. Ye Feng should take advantage of this time to find out the situation in various parts of Dongyang Town and formulate a reasonable cultivation plan.
After arranging the affairs of Huangshi Village on this day, Ye Feng finally took a few days of leisure, led a few guards and the housekeeper Zhu Gui to start investigating the situation in the entire Dongyang Town.
Ye Feng has investigated the situation of Huangshi Village clearly, and the expanded Huangshi Village occupies a radius of about five miles. The original immortals stayed in the inner city, and the new hundreds of immortals came in the newly built outer city.
A radius of five miles is the area of Huangshi Village, and its area of influence is about twenty miles. In this area of about 150,000 acres, about 50,000 acres are suitable for cultivation as spiritual fields. If all of them are reclaimed and the current population of Barren Stone Village is about fifty mu per person, it will be enough for the consumption of Barren Stone Village, and there will be a huge amount of Spirit Valley left.
However, a monk's energy is limited, ordinary immortals can take care of ten acres of spiritual field alone, and a more advanced one is twenty or thirty acres, and only a professional spiritual planter can take care of more than a hundred acres of spiritual field.
Ye Feng's initial plan was to reclaim 10,000 acres of spiritual land first, divide it according to the level of spiritual farmers, and continue to reclaim it when the population increased in the future.
The land problem in Huangshi Village is easy to solve. However, other immortal villages outside of Arashi Village are not so easy to handle.
At present, although there are only a dozen immortal villages, the situation of almost all immortal villages is different.
Shazhou used to be located in the chaos of war, and every year at the time of harvest, it would be coveted by the sand bandits and the Wei army, so before that, Linggu had not been the main business of some immortal villages on the front line. In order to survive and save a little more food, many fairy villages are showing their own magic and thinking of various ways to eat.
For example, Yanhe Village, where Ye Feng is going now. The entire fairy village was built on the edge of the Yan River. The whole village lives on the Yanhe River. The Yan River is the flow of the Jinsha River, a large river on a sandbank, the water level is shallow, and the amount of water is not too large, but there are a lot of resources in the river, and there are no terrifying monsters in other big rivers.
After seeing this village, Ye Feng planned to build a fish pond next to Yanhe Village, divert the water of Yanhe River into the fish pond, and artificially cultivate aquatic demon beasts. The whole village of this village does not like farming, but it is an expert at tending to all kinds of fish and monsters in the water.
There is also a Tan Shan Village, where the fairy village is built at the foot of the mountain. The whole village lives on elixirs, spiritual trees, and small monsters collected from the mountains. Ye Feng plans to try to plant fruit trees on Tan Mountain, planting all kinds of spiritual fruits, and it will be a good choice for both selling and making wine.
......
More than ten immortal villages walked through one by one, and Ye Feng found that Dongyang Town was really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Each immortal village had its own secret method in the war-torn environment in the past, ensuring that the whole village did not starve and did not attract the attention of the Wei army.
As far as the current more than ten immortal villages are concerned, Ye Feng found that there are six immortal villages suitable for planting spirit valleys, and the other villages are good at picking and distinguishing elixirs, some are suitable for playing and breeding, some are suitable for fish farming, and one is a ready-made merchant who makes a living as a hawker in various villages.
Late at night, Ye Feng was sorting out the harvest of the past few days, marking the characteristics of each immortal village: what is needed, how much population is needed, and what does everyone need to do......
Everything needs to be marked slowly so that it doesn't mess up. A qualified leader starts small, does not let go of every detail, and is made through training and hardship. And Ye Feng is approaching in this direction.
After finishing everything, Ye Feng found that there were still many problems. Although the development goals and routes of each village have been made, they lack tools, plant seeds, and most importantly, the masters who handle them.
It is difficult for ordinary immortal villages to have masters, and the skills of farming and collecting medicine have been passed down from generation to generation, but there is nothing too profound. It is not difficult to make a living with these skills, but it is difficult to become a master.
After doing a good job in the next development direction of each immortal village, Ye Feng planned to go out again. This time, it is not the same expanding Rosa House, but Sands City, the state city of Shazhou. One is to buy various tools, and the other is to see if you can bring in a few good talents.
