After the list was posted, the people were talking about it.
"The yamen encourages us to register here. What do you think?" A strong man dug up a shovel of soil and threw it onto the carriage, lifted up the corner of his clothes to wipe away sweat, revealing his strong abdominal muscles, and asked a few companions.
A thin man next to him frowned when he heard this and said while working: "Although my home is only a hundred miles away from here, I am always unfamiliar with this place."
"Yes, the golden nest is not as good as our dog nest! And even if we are willing to stay, the elderly in the family will not nod." Another person interrupted.
The fallen leaves return to their roots, and the elderly who are older recognize their ancestral land. Many people work hard outside for a lifetime and eventually sell all their property and return to their hometown ancestral land.
After death, you must bury it in your own ancestral tomb to be willing to do so.
I believe that burying myself outside will become a lonely ghost.
"I want to come here!"
Suddenly, a different voice was inserted, and the man was excited and flirted. "The list of words clearly stated that within ten days, go to the county government to wait for the land here to be reclaimed, if you buy it, you only need to pay half of the price.
, My family has no land, only a few caves.
I happened to settle here and buy some land. Haha, my whole family will be from Lingtong County in the future."
The man's voice was very loud and he immediately went far away.
Some supervisor heard this, but did not speak up.
If these civilians and soldiers are lazy and do not work, chat and fuck, supervisors will inevitably scold them.
But today there is a special reminder to relax.
If someone talks about entering Lingtong County, don’t interrupt and pay attention.
Many people are a little moved when they hear these words.
Most of the people living at the bottom have no land and rent the landlord's farmland to cultivate.
After the autumn harvest, taxes must be collected from the court first, and then rent will be paid to the local government.
If the weather is good after the year, the family can still have enough food.
But if you encounter a little natural disaster and reduce the harvest, you will suffer.
If the natural disaster is serious, you have to borrow money from the landlord to eat and not starve to death. But is the money from the landlord's family so easy to borrow?
Although the interest rate is not as good as usury, it is difficult to repay.
So generations of the lower class people were tied up to do things for the landlords.
As a farmer, who doesn’t want to own their own land?
This temptation is great!
So many people were moved.
"I want to stay, but my family didn't save money before, but instead had debts. Even if it only paid half of the price, it couldn't afford it!" The man sighed helplessly.
Many people's eyes dim when they heard this.
For a moment, people continued to work and their mouths became quiet.
In addition to not having money to buy land at home, everyone has various other worries. In the end, there are very few people who want to stay and settle down.
However, after the work was over in the evening, there was still a group of people gathered at the county government office and wanted to enter the household.
In this era, if you want to enter another place, the procedures are not complicated and difficult to handle. As long as you have a road guide issued by the yamen in your hand.
If you get a household here, naturally, there will be a servant who will go to the home town of the household so the yamen, and the household will be closed there.
However, although it is not complicated, under normal circumstances, local governments will charge a considerable fee.
So it's not OK to have no money in your hands.
However, the posted list clearly states that if you enter households in Lingtong County, you will not charge half a penny.
Minzhuang and the women got off work. When they passed by the entrance of the county government, they saw many people queuing up here.
Knowing that these people want to settle down here, some shake their heads gently, some envious, and some jealous and ridiculed.
"If our family has money, we will settle here."
"The family still owes Mr. Huang a lot of money."
"I don't think I'm going to stay?"
"When the project is under construction, who knows whether crops can grow in those fields? You must know that this place used to be just a piece of wild grass."
"Is the water of Hunhe so easy to attract?"
"Don't suffer from floods again."
"They cried to death after buying the land but had no grains!"
Passersby have different thoughts.
After several days of hard work, Jiang Long finally made the ice cream, and it was not until this time that he learned about the list posted by Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan.
Jiang Long naturally had no objection to the two's actions.
He had indeed neglected before. If the project was completed and no one stayed to farm, then all his efforts would be wasted.
So Jiang Long brought the newly prepared ice cream with different flavors and let the two taste it.
Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan naturally praised him.
It is a great enjoyment in life to be able to eat such cool and sweet things in the hot summer.
In the afternoon, a yamen runner reported that it was Mike who was looking for a meeting outside.
After Jiang Long said he wanted to buy all the wines from the caravan, he greeted the black guard that night, fulfilled his promise the next morning, and handed it over to Mike with the silver. Mike was very happy at the time, but he did not immediately return.
It is not easy to take many obstacles to travel to Daqi.
You can't go back empty-handed.
Mike has been buying silk and porcelain everywhere these days and bringing it back to sell it.
Now that I am ready, say goodbye to Jiang Long before leaving.
Jiang Long met Mike and carefully told him to help him with his heart and that he would never treat him badly.
Mike agreed repeatedly.
Leaving the county government office and returning to the inn, Mike's caravan planned to set off early the next morning.
Why don’t you suddenly come and discuss matters with Jiang Long for a while.
After night, Jiang Long took out the ice cream and tasted it for the black guard.
The black-clothed guard naturally praised him.
Ice cold drinks, juices, and ice cream of various flavors are definitely new things that can make a lot of money.
Jiang Long did not ask for much money, but asked the black guards to help buy 50,000 taels of silver from other places to transport them.
The black guard should be respectfully so.
Then, Jiang Long made a demonstration and taught the black-clothed guard various methods.
The process is not difficult, so the black-clothed guard can learn it once.
"I need 150 horses that can be trained as mounts." Jiang Long said suddenly.
The black-clad guard was stunned when he heard this, with a puzzled look on his face.
"The river project is progressing smoothly, and the economic development prospects of Lingtong County are also good, but the military strength is too weak." Jiang Long explained, "I plan to let Mr. He train 150 cavalry first, so that it is easy to deal with it."
The horse bandits or alien troops who came to attack the city.”
I saw Mike off before, why not come here, that is, it is about this matter.
Jiang Long thinks it makes sense.
You can't just be rich, but you have to have a hard fist.
Otherwise, the wealth in your hands will become the root cause of trouble.
It attracted the horse bandits to spy on the greed of aliens.
Even if the opponent cannot break through the city wall, if he leaves with one blow, such a tactic will make Lingtong County very passive.
Without cavalry, you just defend the city. At most, you can only ensure that your side will not fail.
The opponent was full of cavalry and felt that the bones were not easy to chew, so he could retreat immediately. It was impossible for the infantry in the city to pursue them.
It is difficult to truly win.
In the past, for the Daqi side.
As long as you defend the city, not be compromised by the enemy, and resist invasion, you will be considered a victory.
But Jiang Long doesn't think so.
How could I be beaten passively? I just threw a few bodies and retreated and said that I had won the battle?
Such a view is too cowardly and cowardly!
The real victory is the enemy's provocation, and then the army is led to attack and defeat it in the battle.
Or maybe you take revenge and directly kill the other party's door and defeat it.
Passively being beaten and then defending the city is not Jiang Long's style.
Therefore, it is necessary to improve the military strength of Lingtong County.
Of course, Lingtong County has just begun to develop now, so it can only be cultivated and increased the number of cavalry and infantry under its command step by step.
Otherwise, it would be too burdensome to recruit too many soldiers at once.
You should know that raising troops and training troops is very costly.
Jiang Long alone can barely ensure the smooth progress of Lingtong County's project. If the people are full and raise many soldiers, it will be very difficult.
The black guard hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Three days later, the younger one will send someone to the horse."
Next, Lingtong County's population was still growing rapidly for ten consecutive days. Many smart people formally settled in Lingtong County, including some small businessmen and small landlords. They are optimistic about the future development of Lingtong County.
I plan to spend money to buy farmland immediately after the fields are cultivated.
Now that we settle in Lingtong County, the price of farmland will be reduced by half.
In addition, the first two years are wasteland, so you should not have to pay taxes to farm, which is very cost-effective.
Now if a small landlord with ten acres of land sells the land and then buys wasteland in Lingtong County, he can earn at least fifty acres of farmland!
As long as you truly build water conservancy well, it is not difficult to cultivate wasteland into fertile land.
There can be many changes in ten days.
For example, in Lingtong County, rows of brand new brick houses were erected in Dongcheng and Nancheng, and many people lived in it. After planning, the rows of building buildings would be much faster. If they were separated by a single one.
The speed of building covers is twice as slow.
For a single house, each building must measure the area in advance and lay the foundation.
And rows of built-in covers are drawn, and the foundation is laid from one end to the other end.
After the foundation was laid, it was built several dozen feet in a row.
The planned area is not too much trouble.
The efficiency has been greatly improved.
As the people continued to move into new houses, gradually, it was obvious that building a house could save a lot of land.
Xiao Fan calculated that after all Dongcheng and Nancheng were renovated, at least one thousand new houses could be vacant.
These houses can be sold for money.
And this is not the case that several newly planned streets can be built on both sides of the street.
Lingtong County is not a big county. Xiao Fan estimated that in more than a month, the reconstruction work of Dongcheng and Nancheng would be completed.
Then we will renovate the West City and North City.
The black-clothed guards were not idle for the past ten days.
A new type of shop has appeared in many prefectures in Daqi.
The store mainly sells ice cubes, cold drinks, various juices, and ice cream, and wine will be sold in the future.
So this summer, rich people have another enjoyment.
The store's business is very good, which naturally leads to some people's greed, but if you want to get cheap, you will end up making everyone dirty.
So many people know that the store’s background is very strong.
The black-clad guards in Jingfu have another source of income that can have a large amount of money.
