The various measures taken by the Star Territory quickly made the people of the territory richer. The influx of a large number of businessmen also stimulated the prosperity of the territory. The Star Territory is undergoing new changes every day. In just half a year, the territory has undergone changes.
Earth-shaking changes.
"Lord! In the past six months, the number of people in our territory has exceeded 10,000. Most of the civilians in the surrounding hundreds of miles have migrated to the territory. They have had a serious impact on the security of the territory. Do you think they will be deported outside?
"
The new consul is making a detailed report to Tianxing. Recently, not only a large number of businessmen have poured into the Xingchen Territory, but also a large number of civilians have entered the territory. Due to the tax-free policy and various convenient facilities of the Xingchen Territory, it has greatly attracted
The civilians around are still struggling for food.
After these people heard that the Star Territory had implemented a three-year free policy, they flocked to the Star Territory in large numbers, especially those who came here and found that jobs were very easy to find. They brought this news to their relatives and friends, so they became more and more popular.
More and more civilians are moving here with their families.
Their arrival has seriously affected the interests of the people in the territory. The work in the territory can also consume the surplus labor force in the territory. However, after a large number of civilians from other places arrived, they used cheaper labor to snatch the jobs that should belong to the original residents.
, so a conflict arose. The administrator, who noticed that the situation was on the rise, quickly reported the entire situation to Tianxing.
"Oh?! Is there no law in the kingdom that does not allow civilians to move to other territories?"
After hearing the administrator's report, Tianxing asked. He also knew what the new administrator was worried about? The conflicts among the common people were just trivial matters. If a large number of people from other territories were lost to their own place, it would easily cause Tianxing and Qitan nobles to
Tianxing asked about the relationship between them.
"Uh! Isn't that true? Besides, you are the only noble in the surrounding area of 500 miles. Even if your territory is only ten miles, even if they all move here, they will not cause conflicts with other nobles. But the whole place gathers
Too many civilians will affect the dissatisfaction of the local residents. There are no grain fields in our territory, and the civilians all rely on merchants to survive. After all, there is an online presence. Now the influx of a large number of refugees has harmed the interests of the local residents."
The administrator immediately understood what Tianxing meant and analyzed it in detail for Tianxing. As a local resident, he himself was still very xenophobic.
"Recently, I heard some businessmen say that our tea here is very popular with foreign nobles, so be it! Arrange for those refugees from other places to cut down trees and plant tea in the surrounding areas, and the lord's palace will be responsible for the purchase. In addition, some time ago, I heard that there were discoveries in the west
I got a piece of iron ore for you to investigate, how did the investigation go?"
Tianxing thought for a while before arranging it. The Xingchen territory is rich in a kind of difference that is very popular among the nobles. In the past, due to the small planting area and poor commoners, it was not widely cultivated at all. Tianxing only recently heard someone say that tea has always been cultivated.
It would be a waste to have so many refugees without use of his plan, so he planned to drag these refugees to open up wasteland and grow tea.
"We have sent people to investigate. There is a very rich iron mine there, but only a small part of it is in your territory, and most of it is not in the territory."
Some time ago, Tianxing went to the school to listen to a few classes when he had nothing to do. He heard about tea and mineral deposits from those teachers. After hearing this, Tianxing immediately sent people to investigate. In the past, there were no nobles in this area due to poverty.
If you are willing to take this fiefdom, the venomous snakes and monsters that once lived here have their own businesses and do not pay attention to them, so this place is synonymous with poverty in the eyes of the kingdom.
Now Tianxing realizes that this place is completely a treasure. He didn't know it before, but whenever he is free, Tianxing likes to go to the school to sit in and make up for the regret of not going to the school. Because the classrooms in the school are so diverse, Tianxing really hears useful things.
information.
I heard about tea from a craftsman who used to work for a nobleman. It is said that the craftsman once received a reward from the old nobleman, which was a bag of tea leaves. The craftsman who received the tea leaves sold the tea leaves because his family was poor.
, I didn’t know how valuable this thing was until it was sold. When I was teaching students, I accidentally took it out and boasted about it, and Tianxing took it to heart.
I heard about the mineral deposits from a blacksmith when he was teaching at the college. According to the blacksmith, his ancestors once discovered iron ore in the mountainous area to the west. Unfortunately, wild beasts were rampant there. The blacksmith who went in once was attacked by wild beasts and never dared to do so again.
Went, Tianxing immediately sent people to check after hearing about it, and finally got the exact news today.
"Okay! You have done a very good job. The information about the mineral deposits must be kept secret. All the refugees are allowed to go out to open up wasteland. They will receive three meals a day from the lord's mansion. In addition, they will receive a salary of ten silver coins every month. At the same time, the people in the territory will be given
Summoning and requesting able-bodied civilians, I have my own arrangements, you go down and make arrangements!"
Tianxing quickly assigned the task, and then asked someone to call Gou Sheng over. Gou Sheng now belongs to Tianxing's first general, and was appointed by Tianxing as the leader of the mercenary group. He now has eight full brigades.
.These people have developed a certain degree of combat effectiveness after several months of training.
"Gou Sheng, I just received news that iron ore has been discovered in the west of the territory. You should immediately send four brigades to blockade this area, set up a temporary camp to clear out the surrounding monsters, and wait for the next order."
Since the discovery of the mineral deposits, Tianxing's first thought was to block the news. He immediately asked Gou Sheng to send four brigades to block the martial law and clear out a safe area. A few days later, two mining teams arrived at the two mining areas, and a large number of
The ore was mined quickly.
Tianxing then immediately established a new stronghold in that area, and at the same time sent a large number of blacksmiths and workers, all of whom would be stationed in the stronghold there to conduct preliminary refining of the ore. Since all the residents near the mining area had moved to the Star Fortress, the increase in
Four more brigades were stationed on the island, and the news had been kept very well hidden. A large amount of preliminary refined iron and silver were transported by Tianxing to the Maple Leaf Empire through the Chamber of Commerce, in exchange for a large amount of food and skilled workers.
Tianxing was born as a commoner, so the management of the territory is still very average. If it weren't for the fact that the territory still has a few good management talents, it would probably be in a terrible state now. However, since this is the place where Cadbury personnel hit the hardest nearby,
The territory of Tianxing is developing very fast.
The area around Qingshui and the fortress was quickly sorted out by older refugees who came in. Soon they settled nearby. Since they did not need to pay taxes and had strong support from Tianxing, these refugees were not only very wealthy, but they were finally able to get along.
With food and clothing and a large number of merchants frequently traveling between the two countries, Tianxing's territory was prosperous.
Due to the arrival of a large number of refugees, the development speed of Tianxing territory is getting faster and faster. Relying on clean water and fortresses to cover the surrounding areas, countless large and small gathering places soon appeared around these two towns. Thank you very much.
Small villages spread beyond the territory of Tianxing.
In addition to growing tea, which Tianxing strongly supports, these people also grow many fruits and vegetables. The large fruit forests gradually enrich the fruit resources here, which are transported to Maple Leaf through the corridor. Because the climate on the other side of the corridor in the Maple Leaf Alliance is very different from here.
The same, so the fruit is very popular there, which greatly increases the income of ordinary people.
However, the influx of a large number of refugees caused a food crisis in the Tianxing territory. The territory was originally not suitable for producing crops, but with so many people suddenly gathering, the food gap in the territory became larger and larger. In the end, Tianxing had to form a team of his own to focus on
Responsible for collecting food.
At the same time, the arrival of a large number of refugees has caused huge hidden dangers to the security of the territory. As the saying goes, there are all kinds of birds in the forest. A large number of emergencies cannot be dealt with immediately by relying on a small number of soldiers. Due to helplessness, Tianxing can only stay in the city.
The number of people in the security brigade was expanded, and joint defense personnel were formed in each village. Only in this way could the chaotic situation be barely controlled.
In less than a year, Tianxing went from coming to the territory with only one servant, from a puppet lord to a real lord with more than 10,000 people in two towns.
For a year, Tianxing sat in the office hall of the Lord's Mansion, immersed in thick documents.
Lan'er stood behind Tianxing and looked at Tianxing silently. Tianxing's appearance changed her life drastically. From a child who had been abused by her parents for a long time, she became the most powerful person in the Star Territory except Tianxing.
People regard Lan'er as the governor of the territory.
If we say who has changed the most, Lan'er can be said to be the best. Ever since she came to the territory, Lan'er has been learning non-stop. Especially in the area of management, her achievements are amazing. Under Lan'er's management, the entire territory is in order.
It can be said that the changes in the territory are inseparable from the changes in Lan'er.
Tianxing's main responsibility is to issue various orders, because Tianxing's main focus is on the army, and he cannot do everything himself. All orders are conveyed and supervised through Lan'er, after all, the only thing that makes Tianxing feel at ease now
There is only Lan'er. Although Tianxing is relieved in the army, Tianxing has not found anyone who has the talent to manage government affairs among the soldiers, so Lan'er is the only one who can be used.
Now Lan'er doesn't look weak at all like she used to. Now Lan'er is full of confidence. This is a special temperament that comes from conveying Tianxing's orders for a long time and personally directing the construction of the territory.
