Chapter 498: The development of Great Xia is at the grassroots level

In the dilapidated courtyard, the three figures sat separately, and the old man looked at Lin He with a touch of expectation in his eyes.

"Uncle Lan, Lan Nuo's spiritual power is strong, and I think he has the talent to cultivate witches, so I am going to take Lan Lane to the main city, and ask the master of the Hidden Dragon Hall in the main city to test it, if you really have the talent of cultivating witches, then you will have the opportunity to go to the Great Xia Academy Palace to practice. ”

"Master Lin, what you said is true?"

The old man's body trembled a little, he had never left Tuoshan City in his life, and he did not become a totem warrior when he was old, and his son and daughter-in-law also died in the mouth of the fierce beast in the early years, leaving only the little Miao Miao of Lan Nuo.

If it weren't for Da Xia's promotion of Lingtian over the years, he wouldn't know how to feed Xiao Lanlin, not only does he have food and drink now, but Da Xia has also established a martial arts academy and forcibly let all the school-age dolls go to the martial arts academy to practice.

This kind of day was unimaginable before.

"Master Lin, you must help this baby, the old man~ The old man knelt down for you. ”

The old man suddenly knelt in front of Lin He, he was just an ordinary old man, he didn't have anything to handle, and he didn't know how to thank him, as if this was the only way to express the gratitude in his heart.

"~~ Uncle Lan, get up. ”

This startled Lin He, and he hurriedly got up and helped the old man up.

"This is unacceptable, and finding good seedlings is what I should do. ”

Speaking of this, Lin He's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he thought of the big characters engraved on the main peak of the Academy Palace that he saw when he first entered the Academy.

For a while, I felt something.

"If Lan Yan really has the talent of cultivating witches, the future is unlimited, I am just a martial artist, the palace master has a saying, Wudao is the inheritor of my human civilization, and martial arts is the guardian, I Daxia should establish a heart for heaven and earth, and establish a life for the people, this is what my Daxia disciples should do. ”

Lin He's words, the old man didn't understand too much, but after a lifetime of ups and downs, he didn't expect that in his old age, he really met a good time, and all of this was brought by Daxia.

"Okay, I should also go back to the martial arts academy, in three days, the flying boat between the cities will fall in our Tuoshan City, I will take Lan Rong to the main city, and Lan Rong will accompany your grandfather at home for the past three days. ”

"Master Lin, I know. ”

Lan Yan responded sweetly.

After instructing the ancestors and grandchildren, Lin He did not stay to eat, and drifted away, he was in a very good mood, a few days ago, he occasionally had a feeling, and he was promoted to the Tianmai realm, and when he returned to the school palace, he could go to assess the identity of the disciple.

Not only that, Lan Yan was a good seedling that he discovered, and he could also be rewarded by the Academy.

......

"This is all taught by Elder Feng?"

Sidao's figure in the shadows, watching everything that happened in the small courtyard.

Being asked by Xia Tuo, the old man Feng smiled and said: "Isn't this to follow the patriarch's teachings closely and apply what you have learned, you naturally have to keep it in mind when you come out of the palace." ”

"When did I say those words?"

"The old man doesn't remember, you said it anyway. ”

"This one is called Lin He, which is good. ”

Xia Tuo nodded.

"It's all taught well by the patriarch. The old man took the opportunity to pat the fart again.

". ”

Regarding the words of the old man Feng, Xia Tuo smiled and scolded politely at all, but it was comfortable to listen to, and it seemed that the old man Feng was also slippery.

"The patriarch can rest assured, the school palace has a thorough task system, and when the disciple's cultivation reaches a certain level, he will be sent out to complete the task, or as a teacher in the martial arts academy, or as a city captain, he must be in the position for a certain period of time, by the way, this is what the patriarch said. ”

"Who is the captain of Camel Mountain City?"

Hearing this, Elder Su, the master of the Clan Affairs Hall, turned his mind for a moment, and then said: "The city captain of Huoshan City is Shan Feng, and he is the old man of the clan, but I remember that there are disciples in the Xue Palace who have arranged for Fenfeng's men. ”

"Then let's see if this city captain is qualified. ”

Xia Tuo then said loudly, for the city, stability is the first priority, and this is also what he has to pay attention to, the region is not quiet, and the people's hearts are unstable.

This is not the ancient county seat of his previous life, but a city that has just been transformed from a group of scattered cultivators, although over the years Great Xia has continued to crack down on thugs, road thieves, etc., but the wicked can't finish fighting.

......

At night, there was a beast fire jumping in the stone house in the small courtyard in the south of the city, and a laughter like a silver bell sounded, and it took a long time before it fell, Xia Tuo withdrew his eyes and disappeared into the night with the three elders.

In the darkness, there was a sonorous sound in Tuoshan City, and a team of city soldiers with iron armor patrolled the city, each city soldier held a torch in his hand, patrolling the inside and outside of the stone road in the city.

This patrol system was also established after the establishment of the city in Great Xia, with the warriors in the local city as soldiers and the clansmen drawn from Great Xia as city captains.

The effect is also obvious, the city is much more stable, so that the people in the city can play with villains at night, without worrying about any accidents, scared and sluggish, and it can be regarded as an indirect contribution to the population increase plan of Great Xia.

After taking a turn in Tuoshan City, Xia Tuo found that it was not bad, and he couldn't say that there was nothing wrong, but he wouldn't be too nitpicky, picking bones in the bird's eggs.

In the end, the four people came to the Chengwei Mansion, and now the four palaces of each city in Daxia are parallel, the City Lord's Mansion, the Qianlong Palace, the Chengwei Mansion, the Tuntian Mansion, and the reclamation of a large area outside Tuoshan City for two days is under the jurisdiction of the Tuoshan Tuntian Mansion.

In the city captain's mansion, the stone hall beast fire jumped, and some people were busy, and a figure in armor hurriedly came and walked into the hall.

"Lord Captain, is there something important going on? ”

Sitting at the top of the stone hall, he is a middle-aged martial artist, his strength is at the peak of the mountain opening realm, but there is a blood qi around his body, obviously he has experienced a lot of killings in his hands, he is wearing black armor, and there is a red nameplate on his chest.

"Honglu, I heard that you went out of the city today to catch that broken left hand?"

Honglu is a young man, not yet thirty years old, and his strength is at the peak of the Split Stone Realm.

Hearing the question of the captain of the Wind City, Honglu nodded and said, "Yes, but after this guy killed three people in a row, he hid in the wilderness outside the city, and he didn't find it for a day. ”

The left hand is the nickname of the person, a villain who has appeared in Tuoshan City in the past two months, killed three people in the city, if it was before, no one would care how many people were killed, but now this is the territory of Great Xia, and daring to kill is to provoke the majesty of Great Xia.

"My lord, I think this guy is cultivating an evil skill that needs to be practiced with blood, so I'm going to set up a game and cause the bait. ”

Listening to Honglu's words, Feng Feng nodded, he was born in the Great Xia clan, and he was okay in terms of fighting, but his mind was a little bad.

Fortunately, Honglu returned from the school palace two months ago, and he had a mind to do things, which made him very happy.

"This guy's cultivation speed is really a bit fast, three months ago it was still the early stage of the Split Stone Realm, this is already the peak of the Split Stone Realm, you can be sure. ”

Hearing this, Hong's scaly body stood proudly and said: "Although the evil skill is cultivated quickly, the subordinates are not afraid in terms of strength. ”

"Look at it, the edict issued by the Governor's Mansion of the main city. ”

With that, he took out a scroll of animal skin in his hand and handed it to Hongscale.

After opening the scales, he looked at them carefully, and then there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he said, "Your Excellency is going to be promoted." ”

The city captain of the inferior city is only an eight-rank luck position, and the promotion naturally means that he will go to a higher-grade city to serve.

He Feng waved his hand and said, "Actually, being a city lieutenant is not what I am good at, if I can choose, I still want to return to the war division, but I don't have this opportunity."

I have already recommended you to the Nine Beasts City Captain Mansion to succeed you as the Captain of Tuoshan City, commanding the five hundred city soldiers in the city and guarding the stability of Tuoshan City. ”

"However, my lord, I have only been here for two months, and my strength is only the peak of the Split Stone Realm, if you want to become a city captain of an inferior city, you must at least open the mountain realm. ”

"It's okay, you are a disciple from the Academy Palace, and you have been cultivated by the orthodoxy of the Academy Palace, although you are still stuck at the peak of the Split Stone Realm, I don't think this can trap you.

But before that, you still have to try your best to take down the villain of the left hand cutoff, so that I can have a head when I recommend you to succeed you, otherwise there will be no one in my Tuoshan City where the captain of the main city is. ”

Speaking of which, Feng Feng looked at Honglu and asked, "You won't forget everything you learned in the Academy, right?" ”

Hearing this, Hong's body tightened, his eyes flashed sharply, and he said, "How dare you forget!"

"Okay, then I'll rest assured, everyone in Hongscale has their own chances, some people's talents are indeed admirable, but this is not a reason to be decadent, you succeed as the city captain, and get the blessing of Great Xia's luck, which is enough to make up for some of the talents. ”

"I see. ”

"Alright, there you go. ”

Feng Feng watched Honglu go away, catching an evil cultivator was a test for Honglan, otherwise how could he become the new captain of Huoshan City, as for the strength realm, this is not a problem.

You can temporarily act as a city captain, grant the rank of Nine Rank Qi Luck, and wait until your strength is promoted to the Kaishan Realm, and you will become a real city captain.

......

"Patriarch, how is the disciple who came out of my school palace?"

In the dim place, the old man said to Xia Tuo.

"Nearly eight years have passed since the patriarch ordered the recruitment of the first batch of young people in the city, and over the years, the school palace has successively gathered more than 13,000 people.

Also since three years ago, the ordinary disciples in the school palace who were still stuck in the Split Stone Realm have been assigned to various parts of the Great Xia territory to enrich the bottom layer.

The strength of these people may still be stuck in the Cracked Stone Realm, but after years of cultivation by the Academy Palace, especially the teaching of cognition, it is enough to become the backbone of the bottom.

They are different from the disciples who go out to complete tasks, they will be rooted at the bottom of Great Xia, and it may not take many years to be able to appear in various positions in Great Xia. ”

Old Man Feng groaned, for the disciples who have cultivated in the Great Xia Academy Palace for five years and are still stuck in the Split Stone Realm, the talent is naturally needless to say, and the release is equivalent to a new opportunity.

"Yes. ”

Hearing this, Xia Tuo couldn't help but nodded, this is something he values very much, compared to the vast territory of Great Xia, there are still a few people cultivated in the Academy, so this is a process of transformation, and it will take a long time to implement.

Now, the transformation process has already begun.

......

After staying in Camel Mountain City for a day, he quietly left with the three elders and appeared in Xiong Hao City, another medium-sized city under the Nine Beast City domain.

Like Camel Mountain City, a large area of spiritual fields outside Xiong Hao City was reclaimed, and this time Xia Tuo directly appeared in a stone hall in the City Lord's Mansion of Xiong Hao City.

Under the cover of night, the stone hall in the city lord's mansion was pitch black, and the stone shelves were full of animal skin scrolls, Xia Tuo took out a scroll at random and opened it.

When they reached their realm, they were naturally not afraid of the night, watching Xia Tuo take out the scroll and watch, Elder Feng on the side was a little nervous, the population in these territories was under the jurisdiction of her clan domain hall, and she was really afraid that Xia Tuo would find something dissatisfied.

This is a volume that records the number of births in the city, and the number of people in the city is used as one of the indicators in the assessment of the city lord in Great Xia.

Don't look at the Great Xia Clan, there are a lot of people, but the Great Xia place is too big, looking beyond the Great Xia, there are too many barren lands, the land is vast and sparsely populated, whether it is to increase the base of the human race, so that more warriors can be born, or from other aspects, the Great Xia is to encourage birth and breeding.

"Last month, there were six hundred and seven births in Xiong City. ”

Xia Tuo saw the numbers recorded in the book and groaned softly.

Elder Feng on the side said: "Patriarch, Xiong Hao City has a total population of 170,000 people, although the clan has implemented the spiritual field, so that the old and weak do not have to fall into danger for hunting, but there are many diseases in the wilderness, especially the newly born dolls have a weak physique, and it is easy to die. ”

"Is the premature mortality rate high?"

Xia Tuo was stunned, he really didn't pay much attention to this, Daxia promoted Lingtian, just to prepare for increasing the population, of course, but to say that farming is not hunting, in fact, hunting is still a large part of the life of the people of Daxia.

"Patriarch, because there are witch pharmacists and various herbs in our clan, the doll has been guaranteed from the moment it is born, so the premature death rate is very low. ”

"The patriarch is actually very good, in the past, when Great Xia did not establish a city, the birth of martial artists in the scattered city was even less than this. ”

The two elders spoke one after another, and Xia Tuo groaned, this is a wilderness, so naturally there is no family planning.

What's more, there is nothing fun in the wild land at night, most of the lone wolves are cold with weapons, and those who have mothers-in-law are all made to play, and the fertility rate is actually very high.

The dolls in the wild land are all pushed up by this high fertility rate, the mortality rate is high, and the fertility rate is pressed over, and there are always survivors who have more than one life.

"It's not going to work!"

Shaking his head slightly, Xia Tuo continued: "After I go back, the Clan Domain Hall Clan Affairs Hall will come up with a plan, since the premature mortality rate is so high, start from here, and find a way to ensure that the dolls can grow up, and I will be people-oriented." ”

"Yes. ”

With this matter, Xia Tuo put the animal skin roll back.

"Let's go and take a look at Tuntian Mansion. ”

After coming to Tuntian Mansion, Xia Tuo also pulled out the books transcribed by his subordinates in Tuntian.

The people in each city in Great Xia can be regarded as large and small families, and even families, as for what land annexation in the previous life, it is estimated that it will not appear in hundreds of thousands of years in Great Xia, after all, the wilderness is very large, and there are many places that can be cultivated.

In addition, there is the official giant of Great Xia, and the spiritual fields reclaimed outside the city are divided, and each family is each family.

In the same way, not every family farms, some families have some crafts, hunting, iron, etc., can run a family, Xia Tuo is transforming the slave hunting society of Great Xia into a society of small farmers who are half-ploughing and half-hunting.

"It's all ordinary spiritual rice, I saw some places outside the city that there are high-grade spiritual rice planted in some places, no less than thousands of acres, just outside the city where the riverbank is full of spiritual energy, why is there no relevant record. ”

Xia Tuo looked through the animal skin scrolls on the stone shelves in the hall one by one, in fact, there were not many, but only dozens of volumes, and found that the grades in the books were all ordinary mortal low-level Lingmi Tian.

"I guess I forgot. ”

Seeing that Xia Tuo's face was a little ugly, the old man Feng came out to play a round, thousands of acres of high-grade spiritual rice outside the city, each of which was two meters high, and the particles on it were crystal full.

You must know that the establishment of a city in Great Xia, such a large spread requires a lot of money, not to mention the garrisons in various passes of the territory, just the city soldiers and warriors in each city need to be fed.

What to offer?

Spirit crystals, animal meat, and spiritual rice, where do these things come from, naturally they collect a part of the tax of the spiritual field.

Of course, this part is not much, thirty taxes one, every thirty jun to pay one jun of spiritual rice, you must know that this is a wild land, the land is fertile, and the harvest of spiritual rice is naturally very high, so even after paying taxes, their small families can still leave enough spiritual rice for life.

This kind of tax is actually not a concept of advancement, in the many ethnic domains of the wild land, all the mineral veins and other resources found need to be handed over to the upper part, in fact, this is similar to the tax, but the name is different.

The tax of thousands of acres of high-grade Lingtian is nothing to Xia Tuo, but the system is the system, which is the foundation of Daxia's foothold at the bottom.

I didn't expect to avoid land annexation, but I didn't avoid opportunism.

"Don't blame yourself, we are now crossing the river by feeling the stones, all kinds of systems are not perfect, just find problems and improve, some small insects are nothing, since you like Lingmi so much, you will send them to the northern region to farm." ”

The Northern Regions?

Several elders felt a chill in their hearts, the northern region of the border desolation is much more desolate than the northwest land, where to farm, or to feed the insects, isn't this free-range.

But when the patriarch said so, it was tantamount to setting a rule.

"When we get back, we'll look into the matter closely. ”

Speaking of which, this is a matter of the Si Nong Palace, but to put it bluntly, the Clan Affairs Hall is in charge of the promotion and transfer of various military officers in the territory, and has the obligation to supervise.

Although Xia Tuo was annoyed, someone dared to dig up his Xia's grain, not a single grain.

But he didn't have any temper for Elder Si Nong Dianshao, this elder only knew how to farm, and he had very few crooked thoughts.

......

At noon the next day, a rumbling sound sounded in the sky outside Xiong Hao City, and three flying boats ten feet long came into the air and landed on a high platform in the center of the city.

Then the warriors who were waiting under the high platform walked towards the flying boat, and Xia Tuo walked in with the three elders and chose a place to sit down.

"Brother Wen, is it possible that there is a great opportunity again, what to do in the main city. ”

"What's the matter, this baby in the family went to the main city martial arts academy to practice half a year ago, I heard that there is any talent for cultivating witches, and he is valued by the adults of the Hidden Dragon Palace, so he stays by his side, I'll take a look." ”

"Yo, dude, what a blessing. ”

"Hey, isn't it two days ago that I found a few broken stones in the valley outside the city, and I was going to send them to the Iron Family's Divine Craftsman Shop in the main city to see if it was a good mineral. ”

"The Iron Family's shop has made good weapons. ”

......

"This brother, you also go to the main city. ”

Next to Xia Tuo, a middle-aged warrior with a bag of animal skins on his back asked Xia Tuo very familiarly.

"yes. ”

Xia Tuo nodded with a smile and asked, "Brother, what are you doing in the main city?" ”

"Me. ”

The middle-aged warrior shook his head and said, "I won't go to the main city, the flying boat will pass through Linshan City a day later, and my home is in Linshan City." ”

As he spoke, he tightened the leather bag in his hand.

"Brother, there's a treasure in your animal skin bag. ”

"No, no, it's just some ordinary herbs. ”

The middle-aged martial artist shook his head violently, and then said, "How can I have the ability to find precious herbs, this has already been entrusted to Lord Xia's blessings?"

"Lord Xia, you don't even know. ”

The middle-aged martial artist frowned, then looked at Xia Tuo like a monster, and said, "You won't run out of a mountain, Lord Xia is our great Great Xia Clan Master!"

ps The number on the last one was written incorrectly, it was three people, I apologize to everyone, everyone is a single dog, what do you want a wife. Ha~
