Lord of the People of Online Games

Chapter 51: Sowing in October

   "Um...no problem."

   Hua Mulan agreed.

Chutian originally planned to recruit Tier 2 cavalry. Lingyan Town has a Tier 2 Cavalry Battalion. Unfortunately, Lingyan Town has not yet become a vassal. Xia Town cannot use Tier 2 Cavalry Battalion. Forcibly used, the recruited cavalry will belong to Tang Li Er'er. not him.

   Tier 2 cavalry requires higher quality of horses. As for heavy cavalry, the weight of their armor is not what ordinary horses can bear.

   Before having better horses, Chutian temporarily recruited Tier 1 light cavalry equipped with ordinary horses.

  All the horses are concentrated in Xiazhen. War horses are comparable to gold and silver in troubled times and are strategic materials.

   Sixty hussars were trained in the cavalry camp in Xiazhen. The training period was 14 days. It happened that it would take half a month to expand the secondary school to the tertiary school.

   When the light cavalry comes out, they will be transferred to the third-level school ground for training. The cavalry trainer is Hua Mulan.

   During this period, Chutian personally inspected the farmers to plant seeds while supervising the people's large-scale construction.

   Early October is when wheat is planted in the Yihe area.

   There are more than 3,000 farmers in Xia Town, all of whom are involved in planting. The new farmland reclaimed by Li Di led the refugees finally came into play, and the newly joined townspeople could directly plant seeds in the new farmland.

   Lingyan Town has a special product "exquisite farming tools". When controlling Lingyan Town, Chutian seized a batch of sophisticated farming tools and gave priority to Xia Town.

   Xiazhen is Chutian’s basic board, and running Xiazhen well is the most important thing.

   There were more than a dozen cows pulling a cart in the farmland, and the farmers followed. The so-called columbine is a kind of farm tool for planting. It was an invention in the Western Han Dynasty of China. It consists of three columbine feet and three openers under it, which are used to ditch and plant seeds on the leveled ground.

   "If there is a bumper harvest next year, Xiazhen alone can supply 10,000 people with food."

   Li Mi is very confident. His SS-level characteristic "doing his best" can guide farmers to make full use of the land and increase food production by 30%, so he still has this confidence.

   Chutian just nodded. Everyone understands the importance of farming, but Chutian may not know how to select seeds and sow. All of these are guided by Li Li to cultivate the farmers.

   Chutian can't do real farm work, and he doesn't need him to do it. Chutian only needs to issue orders, deal with some conflicts, and wait for the harvest next year. However, his policy is closely related to next year's output.

   A simple wooden shed was built on the edge of the farmland. A small official belonging to Tiancao Xiazhen sat in the wooden shed and took a nap.

   Li Li, who is in charge of Tian Cao, coughed slightly, and the dozinger saw the arrival of the boss and lord, and hurriedly refreshed his spirit: "My lord."

   Chutian glanced at the notice posted in the wooden shed, which read a few words-"Farm Tool Rental".

   Xiaozhu Village’s summer cool is ingenious. It is suggested that farmers who lack farming tools can apply to the lord’s mansion for renting cattle and fine farming tools at the cost of delivering more harvests to the lord’s mansion next year. This is a bit similar to overdraft consumption, but there have been similar examples in ancient times. Farmers who own farm tools can cultivate more farmland and can afford to pay more for next year. The government does not worry about these farmers escaping, because they have taken root in the land under their feet.

   Li Di asked seriously about the work of his subordinates: "Has all the cattle owned by the Lord's Mansion been rented out?"

   The little official nodded quickly: "The cattle have been rented out. The cattle are the most popular among farmers, followed by the chariots and hoes..."

   Chutian listened to Tian Cao's officials to discuss these trivial matters. He has to learn from it himself.

  The cattle in the Lord’s Mansion come from war and trade. You can sometimes get cattle from attacking other villages and bandits, or you can buy cattle from some cities.

   Farming cattle is the most important to farmers, the ancients said, "If there is a field without cattle, there is a boat without a boat, and there is no money."

   Xia Town is very strict in protecting cattle and horses. For those who sell and slaughter horses and cattle privately, the first offense will be punished with a penalty of 100, a fine, a second offense, and a distribution of mining.

   In addition to renting farm tools, the Lord’s Mansion also organized a group of special talents, such as Xiaozhu and Xiaolu, who had not yet worked to set up temporary tea stalls in farmland and construction sites to win hearts and minds.

   People's sentiment is slowly growing because of these small measures.

  Popular sentiment and public security are also one of the conditions for upgrading a secondary town.

   Chu Tian looked over, and it was full of farmland in Xia Town.

   "My lord, it's time to drink tea."

   Xiaolu, a dancer in Xia Town, knew Chutian. At this time, she was helping out at a temporary tea stand near the farmland. Seeing that Chutian was leading people to inspect, she took the initiative to invite Chutian and his party to the tea stand.

   Special talents who do not have a job can receive temporary allowances from the Lord’s Mansion every month, so Xiao Zhu, Xiao Lu and others are grateful to Chu Tian. Knowing the request of the Lord's Mansion, they also came forward to help the Lord's Mansion win people's hearts.

   "When I upgrade to a second-level town, I will build a band in Xiazhen, and then you can have jobs."

   Chutian is more concerned about these special talents, because they can bring special bonuses to Xia Zhen.

  Lefang is a cultural building. Cultural buildings are not optional, they can stabilize people's hearts and increase population, taxation and prosperity.

   "Thank you, sir."

   Xiao Zhu and Xiao Lv looked at each other and were overjoyed. Working in the band is their best way out, and the treatment is better than in the brothel. The concert hall in "Lord" was upgraded to the palace concert hall, representing the peak of music and dance in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

   Chutian also has plans. If he recruits any historically talented women in the future, he can just go directly to the palace band. In short, each special hero in "Lord" has its own role, and it is definitely not a vase. Even Liu Chan and Hu Hai have their own characteristics.

   Chutian has been staying in Xia Town recently, instructing various vassal villages to develop.

   As long as Xia Town is upgraded to a second-level town, then the vassal villages of Xia Town can be upgraded to a first-level town. For example, Xiaozhu Village has already met the upgrade conditions for a first-class town under the summer cool operation.

  Yunlai Village is positioned as an agricultural village, and it is also developing into a first-class agricultural town.

   Shangbi Village is a mining village and will soon be upgraded to a three-level village.

   A large amount of stone and wood are transported to Xia Town every day, and buildings are erected or expanded on the original basis, and the prosperity is close to the second-class town.

   The requirements for the prosperity of secondary towns are very high. There are only a handful of lords with secondary towns in the entire Eastern Han District, and now there are not even ten secondary towns.

   There are rewards for hitting the second-tier towns, but the rewards are not rich. The best reward is the reward of the first city in the world, so Chutian is not in a hurry, and it will not help.

   What he wants to hit is the reward of the first city in the world.

   Because the cavalry led by Hua Mulan is "notorious" in this area, no lord dared to invade Xiazhen's sphere of influence. Not many lords in the entire Langya country dared to fight Xia Zhen head-on.

   Some small villages and towns can join forces to compete against Xiazhen, but the alliance between the lords is very complicated and they have their own thoughts. Only two or three princes dared to step forward in the Eighteenth Route princes crusade against Dong Zhuo. The six kingdoms were combined and they were still defeated by Qiang Qin.

   Finally, in November, when the construction of the second-level navy camp, the third-level school farm, and the third-level pig farm was completed one after another, and the people's mind and public order were restored, Xia Town met all the conditions for upgrading a second-level town.
