Chapter 93 Development
After the establishment of the Public Security Bureau, the first day he caught several drunk mercenaries causing trouble on the street, and then he was thrown into prison by the Public Security Team. After he woke up, he was all covered with shackles and swept the street or worked as coolies.
With the existence of the Public Security Bureau, the public security in the territory suddenly became much better.
During this period, Su Lun deliberately promoted the provinces in the northern regions, many civilians who wanted to obtain land knew that Zhenbeibao was the place. It was just because the distance was far away that they could not pass through the wasteland even if they wanted to come here, unless someone escorted them along the way.
In order to attract the population, Su Lun made an agreement with the caravans who came here to conduct transactions, requiring the caravans to bring civilians who were willing to come here every time they came. Of course, in order to make the caravans do their best, he specifically required that only civilians who brought more than 50 people could be qualified to participate in the sugar trading.
Of course, doing this will definitely make the Chamber of Commerce dissatisfied, so Sulun also gave compensation. The caravan will receive a kinnar reward for every person he brought. Anyway, it will not cost much to take those civilians on a trip. In addition to being responsible for some safety issues, they take care of their food and accommodation, and they can also pick up spears to help resist when they encounter monster attacks.
The Chamber of Commerce agreed after considering it, so from the second month, the population of the territory finally began to grow slowly. The local lords didn't care much about the loss of these civilian populations. After all, they were all refugees who had no land and left them, and they could not provide enough positions in the city. These people could only steal for survival.
Or go to work as mercenaries. To be honest, the mercenary industry is not well-known. Many mercenaries work part-time robbers in the wild. There are even mercenaries who will directly attack customers and will change places after a vote. Therefore, the caravan will generally have their own guards and then hire some mercenaries.
Therefore, the lords not only would not stop the refugees from leaving, but would also applaud and welcome them. After these refugees came to Sulun's territory, they could be said to be impoverished. Sulun would not be kind enough to distribute their land directly. There was a saying in his previous life that was called "Shengmien and Fighting Mie Revenge".
If they were to allocate land, houses, and food to them, they would probably take these things as their own. Once Sulun no longer provides them with help, they even felt that Sulun owes them.
So Sulun had no intention of doing this at all. From the beginning, he planned to resettle these people by using labor-for-relief. Anyway, there were too many people in the territory that needed to work, so there was no need to worry about these people being unable to arrange them.
Let these people work, and then Sulun gives them wages, and the land houses can also be rented for them. Of course, rent is required. The rent will not be very high, but it must be included. When you go out to work, you will take care of two meals. In this era, except for the nobles, civilians only have two meals a day.
The territory is not idlers, and the civilians who come here with caravans are mixed with fish and dragons. Some are obedient and some are idle, and they are stolen and don’t want to do anything. Su Lun doesn’t need to do anything about these people, but they just throw them to the gangsters or werewolves supervisors. These supervisors will educate them well.
After working in the territory for three months, these people will be qualified to purchase houses and land, or to reclaim wasteland. The wasteland reclaim here requires reporting in advance. As long as you pay a jinar, you can obtain the right to reclaim ten acres of wasteland. This ten acres of land will have a three-year tax exemption period. After three years, the tax returns to normal. The house can be rented and you can buy it if you have money.
Therefore, as long as you work hard in Sulun's territory, you will survive and get better and better. These people who live at the bottom often work hard but can't even get enough food and clothing.
With population replenishment, the territory became more and more vibrant. In addition to sugar, rum in the Sulun Territory has also begun to be sold. This refreshing and sweet rum has become very popular as soon as it appears, so several chambers of commerce are fighting for the sales share of rum.
Rum is made of waste honey and the cost is not high. In order to sell it at a high price, Sulun made new packaging of high-end rum. Because of the population growth in territory, Sulun built a glass factory by the Red Sha River and used river sand to calcin the glass. He was originally worried that the calcined glass was of poor quality, but he did not expect that Hathaway was very good at firing glass.
Think about it, as an intermediate alchemist, it is not too easy for them to make glass. With Hathaway's guidance, Sulun's glass factory successfully produced qualified glass.
After packaging, the price of rum naturally increased, but rum is not as irreplaceable as sugar, so Sulun still paid a lot of money to ask the chambers of commerce to help sell. However, these efforts are rewarded, and soon these rums will become another important source of wealth in the territory.
The glass factory was handed over to Chris for management. Sulun discovered something interesting. Chris was actually a management genius. As long as the things she managed were not flawed, Sulun planned to learn management with Chris. However, after looking at Chris' management methods, he gave up directly. There was no way, this was a matter of talent.
As long as Chris uses her high-level charm, basically everyone becomes her dog. Those people work hard and hard like being injected with chicken blood. If Su Lun is a little bit unfair, he doesn't even have to pay for his wages.
After seeing Chris's management style, Sulun gave up directly. He couldn't learn the advantages of talent unless he was willing to wear women's clothing and then develop a talent of high-level charm.
Hathaway has been staying in the laboratory for a while, and even the firing of glass only appeared for a while. She is now just to refine awakening potion.
Su Lun asked her to refine those magic items, but she did not do any of them, but fortunately the awakening potion was finally completed.
The awakening potion is filled with a magic crystal bottle. This magic crystal bottle is specially used to preserve advanced magic potions. As long as the bottle stopper is not opened, the magic potion machine inside can be perfectly preserved for about 500 years. The color of the awakening potion is a translucent liquid in blue and purple, and it is like the starry sky at night, constantly flashing with inspiration, looking very beautiful, and the properties of this potion are also very powerful.
[Awakening potion: A magical potion carefully refined using the leaves of the Tree of Wisdom as the main material. After use, the mental power +4, elemental affinity +2, and the magic recovery effect is permanently increased by 30%. Side effects: None]
This thing is completely for wizards, and can even change the physique of an ordinary person and let ordinary people learn magic.
