Chapter 291 To get rich, build roads first!(2/3)

[2. Take it back and treat it carefully. (*Treating this person may require a huge amount of money)]
There was nothing to think about, so Wang Hao chose [2].
[Although you feel that this person is living in great pain and giving him relief would not be another kind of luck. But you still choose to take this poor person back and treat him carefully. (*Trigger special event)]
【You have left the island in the middle of the lake.】
[Before leaving, you smeared the surrounding buildings with human blood. The strong smell of blood will definitely make the "Water Ghost King" go crazy further. 】


The team returned with a full load, their morale was high, they won another great victory, and even captured the remaining troops of the Water Ghost Pirates alive!
The looted gold, silver, treasures and food were used to pull more than a dozen carts!
Even the old turtle had a lot of grain dragged on its back!
There is nothing more exciting than a good harvest. These militiamen followed the carriage, talking and laughing.
"Now Hujinkou is ours. After two months, after killing the water ghost king, we can go fishing in the lake and collect reeds. There are a lot of abandoned fertile fields by the lake. I just don't know where these fertile fields are.
Who owns it?"
"The road leading to Hujinkou is a little difficult..."
"Didn't the great witch say that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads!"
Not many people covet the collected gold and silver treasures, because the local deity "The Mother of Sores" is watching from behind!
Moreover, the "Great Witch" and others are also very generous, and will give them a mouthful of soup no matter what.
Pan Hao heard everyone's conversation and didn't say anything for a while. He was thinking about distribution issues.
No matter how much or how little this "soup" is, for poor ordinary people, it can help them gain several kilograms of fat.
But "rewards" will affect future work. As the saying goes, don't worry about the shortage but the unevenness. A more reasonable reward and punishment system is the key to the operation of the organization. People can't believe without words, and people can't stand without faith.
If "Tianmen" wants to develop and grow, it must have a sufficiently sound internal mechanism.


Some people were happy and some were sad. Li Qingshan looked at the terrifying "human pig" on the carriage and fell into deep thought.
He had seen a lot of corpses, and he had died several times, but they were all very quick deaths, and even if they were painful, they were barely bearable.
This way of death, in which all perception is deprived of, the whole person is plunged into nothingness, and life force is lost bit by bit, is really...
It's chilling.
"Our world has entered the civilized era for so long that it is beyond imagination to see these things where rituals and music have collapsed."
Lu Tianming held a piece of grass in his mouth and sighed: "All the original residents here are talking and laughing."
"How can they not be happy after a great victory? As for human pigs, they are not surprised. After all, there are still cannibals in their place."
"Hey, that's right."
Lao Lu continued: "Since the Industrial Revolution, the level of civilization in the earth's world has continued to rise. The main culprit in World War II was hanging. If it had been in the past, it would have been three days and three nights, and it would not be uncommon for them to be made into human pigs."
"There was no war during the Cold War. It was a competition to see who had an advanced system and developed technology. It was a competition to see who could enter space first or land on the moon first!"
"Do you think this is a sign of civilization?"
"Of course." Pan Hao also smiled and said, "If Confucius is resurrected and sees the world starting to compete with technology and how it can tolerate LGBT nonsense, he will definitely feel that the world has become unified. Is the so-called 'Tianmen' vision a reality?
Improve the level of civilization here?"
"Maybe it is, but the degree of civilization is directly proportional to economic development. If you can't even eat enough, how can there be so-called civilization?"
"Yes, productivity is the key. Otherwise, even in this world where Taoism can be practiced, it will be impoverished and without the so-called civilization."
The vast crowd returned to the town. They heard that they had won a great victory and that the robbers' stocks had been plundered. Every citizen had a happy smile on their face.
"Folks, everyone has seen these grains, each household is divided into 10 kilograms." Pan Hao just said loudly, and warm cheers rang out in the town.
We just divided the horsemeat yesterday, and now we have to divide the grain.
Food is everything!
Pan Hao knew the principle of the "united front" very well. If he divided up most of the food, even if the court wanted to pursue it, it would arouse the common hatred of everyone.
He also doesn't want to make a fortune by hoarding food. Qingshi Town cannot develop without the support of the people.
"But these treasures cannot be simply distributed to everyone. Because this is the property of the Great Mother, and the Great Mother will only distribute the property to those who have contributed to Qingshi Town."
"Mother Zhangsheng just told me that those who participated in the campaign to suppress the bandits will be rewarded with half a tael of silver!"
The militiamen were in great spirits. Half a tael of silver was equivalent to five hundred coins, which was quite a lot!
A steamed bun only costs two cents!
Silver is a naturally precious metal, and it still has purchasing power even if dynasties change.
Therefore, local people naturally prefer to store a little gold and silver.
"The remaining silver taels will become the development fund of Qingshi Town." Pan Hao cleared his throat and shouted, "The houses and fields left by the Hujinkou bandits are theoretically owned by Suang Sheng's mother, not by me, Pan Hao.
"
"Great witch...what kind of chicken? Chicken essence?" an old man said hurriedly.
Pan Hao explained in a few words: "To put it bluntly, the development of Qingshi Town costs money!"
"The Great Mother of Sores hopes that Qingshi Town will develop better and have a more prosperous population. This silver will be rewarded to those who have made contributions."
Anyway, there are things that cannot be explained, and they are all blamed on the local deity "Big Mother of Sores".
The old turtle went back to his temple to rest. He didn't understand these complicated things at all, and naturally he didn't know that he was carrying such a big blame.
"I understand, it's equivalent to Gongshizhuang!" Scholar Ding Zhijing's eyes lit up. Gongshizhuang is a student aid organization established to support imperial examination scholars.
But in fact, he was greatly shocked.
This is no "Gongshi Village", but... a government office!
They used work as relief, built large-scale construction projects, established militiamen, and leased farmland. Even the militiamen's salaries were paid by the Taoist temple. Although they did not have official status, they performed official duties!
Isn't this the government?
Ding Zhijing was sweating slightly on his forehead, and he felt more and more that these people were organized and premeditated, and came with a grand plan.
It's as if there is a dense network covering Qingshi Town, planning every step ahead.
When I think that the so-called "Tianmen" will promote the Daqian Dynasty in the future, if the matter is exposed, this kind of confiscation of families and genocide will hang over my head, and the edge will be back again, and I will sweat again and again.
Ding Zhijing, will he follow or not?
Gradually, he made up his mind.


"Ahem, fellow villagers, do you understand?" Pan Hao explained a lot in one breath, making his mouth dry.
"I understand, I understand, I help the Taoist temple, and you, Great Witch, will pay me the wages."
"That's pretty much it. But everyone needs to understand that these jobs are not for me, Pan Hao, but for Qingshi Town and everyone else. Building city walls, reclaiming wasteland, and building roads are all urgent matters at the moment. Everyone, too
I don’t want to think that this town will be destroyed by bandits, right?”
"I understand, Great Witch, we are not stupid either!"
Many people laughed.
To put it simply, these new policies are "relief for work". Most of the local farmers are illiterate and cannot do other work. They only have one body.
However, Qingshi Town is full of ruins, with broken walls and ruins everywhere, and even the road surface is uneven.
It is foreseeable that in the future, a steady stream of refugees will be accommodated here, and Qingshi Town may be upgraded to a large city with a population of tens of thousands.
It is absolutely right to first improve the basic road facilities and open up more farmland.
After Pan Hao explained this, the farmers began to cheer loudly.
To be continued...
