14. Discussion

Most of the villagers in Qinghe Village don’t know what steel weapons are.

Chu He pushed his feet hard on the ground, relying on brute force, and the iron sword with poor quality may deform or even break.

As Chu He drew out the steel sword, the villagers were shocked to find that the steel sword had not changed at all.

Chu He was shocked when he saw everyone and took advantage of the situation and said, "This is a steel sword, which is sharper than an iron sword and harder than an iron sword. Outside, one handful is hundreds of taels of silver."

"Chu He has asked Uncle Chu San to help build the steel sword. If you calculate ten moves a month, you can get 5,000 silver taels. Everyone believes that Chu He can ensure the food and clothing of villagers, women, children, young and old, right?"

"If all the villagers don't believe Chu He, you can ask Uncle Chu San whether this sword was created by Chu He himself!"

Chu Qianzhong naturally would not tear Chu He's platform at this time. He took two steps forward and nodded and said, "The steel sword was indeed created by Chu He."

Chu Heizi was also stunned by Chu He's momentum.

After a while, he stuttered: "The elderly, weak, women and children in our village are afraid that they are not as much as 600. Each person spends 100 yuan a month, which is 60,000 yuan. Do you give so much money to share with us?"

Chu Yuan added: "If you get sick, you will need more money."

Chu He looked at Chu Heizi with a little surprise. Seeing this guy stupid, he couldn't imagine that arithmetic was OK.

He has discovered that the villagers in Qinghe Village are basically illiterate and do not recognize a few big words. The arithmetic level is particularly poor, and it is difficult to calculate if the number exceeds one thousand coins.

Chu Heizi casually calculated that 600 people spent 60,000 yuan a month, which was not easy.

Chu He has some knowledge of the prices here. If you buy them at one ounce, it is equivalent to one piece of the earth. The rice price is about two to three cents per catty, and the meat price is more than ten cents per catty.

The environment near Qinghe Village is harsh, with young and strong hunting, labor and other casualties, which makes Qinghe Village not many elderly people and strong people. Among the 1,000 people, three hundred young and strong people, and over fifty-year-olds are about seventy or eighty, with the most women, children and young children.

I am a poor man, and the people here have a great appetite. If you don’t want to eat, you can eat more than one pound of rice in one meal. On average, two pounds and five pounds a day are calculated as two pounds a day, and one person is 15 ounces a month.

Chu Heizi said that 60,000 yuan a month is still counted as a minor.

Since Chu He stood up, he planned to let the people in Qinghe Village be heartbroken and use it for him. Naturally, he could not calculate his own expenses based on this number. One hundred thousand yuan a month is probably indispensable, and here is one hundred taels of silver.

Chu He planned to truly arm them and must make the young and strong man leave their jobs, so Qinghe Village would have almost no income.

Armed training them, replenish their weapons, and provide meat, this is the real big deal, and it cannot be supported without a thousand taels of silver.

Although Chu Blacksmith said that a sword cost 500 taels of silver, a large part of the steel swords he created had to be used for his own use.

Moreover, if there are more things, they will depreciate. The poor Datong County cannot accommodate many steel swords. To support these people, you have to think of some solutions in the short term.

Chu He reached out to calm everyone down, and then said calmly: "I think everyone knows that Da Shu is now in great turmoil. For example, Ji County was captured by bandits and killed thousands of people."

Chu He paused: "Our Qinghe Village must learn a lesson and cannot continue like this. Although Chu He is small, he cannot watch all the uncles and brothers die under the swords and guns of the bandits."

"So, I plan to help our village establish a village protection team and a hunting team. Young and strong people participate in the training. In the future, danger will come, and we will also have the strength to resist."

Chu Heizi is worthy of being the best supporting role. At this time, he asked again: "There are only three hundred young and strong people in our village, and one hundred people are going to go. If you join the village protection team and the hunting team, who will do the work in the fields?"

Chu He laughed: "Chu He has also thought about this question."

"In addition to being responsible for the food and clothing of the elderly, weak, women and children in the village, I will give money to young and strong villagers who participate in the village protection team and hunting team, and there will be no less than two thousand yuan a month!"

As soon as Chu He said this, the entire ancestral hall suddenly became shaking. Even Chu Blacksmith was extremely surprised. Only Chu Zhenhai nodded secretly, and his eyes were full of enthusiasm and excitement when he looked at Chu He.

The villagers were not excited. Qinghe Village has always been poor. Ordinary families work in the fields all year round, and there is not much left except for paying taxes.

If the year is not good, the food harvested will not even pay taxes.

Their family's consumption is mostly about food and clothing. A family of ten people will have to eat 1,000 yuan a month.

Working alone in the field is definitely not enough, so helping and hunting during the slack farming period is one of the important sources of income for Qinghe Village.

Chu Blacksmith is a wealthy family. The family has three people, so the cost is not much, but he only earns about 1,000 yuan a month. Otherwise, he would not have paid more than 3,000 yuan to help Chu He fight a sword for four hundred yuan.

If no one doubted Chu He, the people of this era were quite simple and had the most verbal credit. Chu He was Chu Zhenhai's grandson. If he had talked nonsense, he would have been driven out by Chu Zhenhai.

Many villagers were counting their fingers in secret to see how strong they were in their homes. If they joined the village protection team and hunting team, how much money could they earn in a month and how much they could have left in addition to food.

The villagers are not stupid. Once they calculate, everyone knows that joining a village protection team and a hunting team is much more cost-effective than working in the fields.

Even if there is something that really can't be calculated, ask others, or check what others look like, and you will know the result.

Chu Blacksmith frowned slightly, and at this time he finally couldn't help but say: "Chuhe, although the steel sword is valuable, it is too numerous to buy it. If it is sold at a cheap price, it will not be able to support the thousand-member people in Qinghe Village."

Chu He smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Uncle Chu San, Chu He naturally knows this."

Chu He continued confidently: "That is why Chu He decided to set up a village protection team and a hunting team."

"The village protection team and the hunting team are actually the same. One team trains and patrols in the village, and the other team goes to Huyaling to hunt. When the hunting team comes back, they will train and repair in the village. It is the village protection team's turn to hunt."

"I wonder if you uncles and brothers, have you ever heard the saying that unity is strength."

Chu He became more and more powerful as he spoke, and he didn't know if it was because of the overlord's talent: "We used to go out to hunt and were bullied by hunters from other villages."

"They rely on a large number of people to grab our hunting grounds and our prey. As long as we unite, they will not dare to bully us Qinghe Village."

The young and strong old people in the village also started to talk.

"Yes, every time we go out, we are not as crowded as other villages."

"That's it! Last time I went out to hunt with XXX and XX, and finally injured a cheetah. I was about to catch it. Then more than a dozen hunters came to Yegou Village and snatched the cheetah."

"If all of us go out, who dares to steal our stuff?"

Chu Heizi was still smart and thought more, and asked, "Chu He, then we can't hunt separately. So many preys come to us to hunt? Isn't it even less harvest?"

When Chu Heizi said this, the trend of the young and strong discussion changed again.

They have tried many people to go out to hunt together, but there are not many prey under Huya Ridge, and many people are together. Not to mention that they will startle and scare away the prey. Even if they find prey, the number is not large.
