When it comes to farming, it seems to give people the illusion that in the Ming Dynasty, I could recruit a lot of refugees to help you.

Just give it a stutter!

But, it's not actually like this.

Because there has not been a large-scale famine in Shandong yet, recruiting refugees depends on luck, and the flow of refugees is uncertain. Sometimes large refugees flock to a certain place, and sometimes no one can be seen in a hundred miles. Zhu Zilong does not have the financial resources for the time being, and travels across provinces to promote on a large scale.

However, there are many military families and a small number of refugees in the local area, so this can be used.

Even among the local good people, you can think of a way. After all, each person will give you land and rent dozens of acres of land. Even if some local military households have a large family, some males can be assigned to come and teach the land. The key is to make them believe in the future prospects of military farming.

In comparison, in the 21st century, each farmer could only be assigned a few acres of land in New China. The Ming Dynasty had a small population, so it seemed that this aspect was a little stronger.

Of course, the technology in ancient times was not strong, the seeds were not strong, the population was not large, and the output was not large. It seemed very tired and sweaty when planting so many places!

But we have to plant so many, after all, the yield per mu is too small!

Soon, a small number of refugees from the surrounding villages who were first moved to report.

Everyone was hungry at this time. Zhu Zilong whispered to the dozen or so women in the village: "Sister-in-law of the Yang family, sister-in-law of the Qi family, take the lead, go and cook some porridge and get rice directly from my Mikuri. Refill the new brothers!"

Then he added: "The porridge should be cooked thicker. If you can stand up chopsticks!"

A dozen women responded loudly and turned back to cook porridge.

Zhu Zilong looked at the refugees around him. There were hundreds of people, including the young family. Both men and women were there. Looking around, they were all in rags and weak!

But among them, there may be only dozens of stronger young people. But they are better than none! Some children huddled beside their parents have even more messy heads, yellow faces, and thin clothes. Their clothes are as torn as sacks. They all have severe malnutrition!

When facing Zhu Zilong's gaze and the two tigers at his feet, these people looked down with fear.

Zhu Zilong (half dragon man), two tigers in black and white (holy beast?)

The family property is rich, and he has the power to fight and fight for hundreds of people under his command, and he has the right to train militias in the regiment. He has a strong relationship with the government. He has to say that even if Zhu Zilong doesn't say anything, he just stands there. The effect of this pretense is definitely first-class!

Looking at the people in front of him, Zhu Zilong sighed after a long time.

The refugees are really frivolous. They are more like beggars than the Western refugees in the 21st century.

As more and more such people will join me in the future, is this considered becoming the leader of the Beggars' Sect in advance?

It’s just fine, so I created a set of eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms to play with!

While waiting, Liu and Tao and other women finally struggled to bring out a large pot, and there were people from the village behind carrying more than a dozen pots. The pot was steaming, and a scent of rice porridge wafted over from afar.

When the scent was smelled, the refugees were in a stir, and they all stretched their necks hard to look over there. Especially the children in the team were even more drooling.

Zhu Zilong changed his expressionless face and greeted him affectionately: "It's time to drink porridge, everyone has brought the bowls and chopsticks to drink porridge."

For a moment, the refugees found the broken bowls and chopsticks from their luggage. However, Zhu Zilong and the salt man were guarding here, and they did not dare to crowd and fight.

Hearing the call, he lined up with bowls to get the porridge. The ones behind him were just constantly stumbled, waiting anxiously, but he didn't dare to jump into the line!

The leader of the Salt Man team, Wu Xiaoqiang (Ma Xiaosan, Li Zilong, Wang Binghe, Niu Dashun, Liu Yihui.) lined up in a row, personally served porridge to these people, and shouted: "Everyone is drinking porridge, don't forget the kindness of Lord Zhu (Master)."

Everyone immediately agreed to join in their mouths, and then they found a place to eat it voraciously. The porridge in this bowl was sweet and thick, all of which were pure rice porridge, and there was no such thing as wild vegetable bark.

(The Zhu family’s conscience porridge must be a fine product and will not be adulterated!)

The refugees spent too long on their life in bran and vegetables. Many people shed tears while drinking such good rice porridge. When they looked at Zhu Zilong again, their eyes were full of gratitude!

Zhu Zilong now maintained a standard friendly smile showing eight teeth, and his facial muscles were almost stiff in laughter, and he was very satisfied with the picture in front of him.

(This picture reminds me of the author when he was a waiter, his facial muscles smiled until they cramped every day, which is really a scam!)

After drinking the porridge, you can queue up again until these people basically drank several bowls of them.

The mind has recovered a lot!

Zhu Zilong secretly massaged the muscles on his face with his hands, then kicked away the two cheating tigers pressing on him and playing with them, and signaled Ma Xiaosan with his eyes.

The latter understood and shouted loudly to everyone: "Mr. Zhu is about to start a lecture, and everyone is quiet."

The next minute, Zhu Zilong walked up to those people and looked at them (he was a little nervous).

By the way, it is normal for a modern person to suddenly stand in front of hundreds of strangers and talk, and it is somewhat nervous.

After a while, Zhu Zilong spoke loudly: "Everyone, I will always farm here in my future. Zhu Zilong said here that I will be my own family in the future. Whether it is the good people from the future, the military family members, or the refugees, as long as I am pragmatic, I will treat you equally and will never treat you badly."

However, there was no words for the second half of the sound, and many people listened numbly, TM, this is a mess.

Is this too unpretentious?

It seems that the food is not as shocking or persuasive as it is. With Zhu Zilong waved his hand, dozens of servants rushed over with more than a hundred cows.

Zhu Zilong said loudly again: "In the future, I will reclaim wasteland here. After that, everyone will allocate dozens of acres of land for rent or reward. There are also free oxen seeds and other things to be rented, so there is no need to worry about seeds. Just let it go, and no one will disturb the fields that are reclaimed in the future. Everyone just keeps planting with peace of mind."

As soon as Zhu Zilong said this, everyone was in a state of turmoil. Obviously, this time the guarantee was still persuasive to these people. There were also ox-seeding seeds and other substances, which also had a strong attraction to them. It seemed that they didn’t have to worry about water conservancy, which was a great thing!

Finally, one of the refugees asked, "I wonder how much food the young people will pay in the future. It was the first three years of rent exemption. Will all rent be 30% in the future? Will the rent for ox seeds be repaid in the future?"

It’s easy to say if you are willing to speak. Zhu Zilong smiled and said loudly: “The wise man doesn’t say secret words. Now everyone is reclaiming land together. I will pay the money for water conservancy and cattle seeds. Considering that everyone has not much food, I will pay the daily work and food in the future.”

"In the future, when the rice and wheat mature, I will exempt you from taxed grain in the first three years. But the personal rent is only 10%! From the fourth year, one dou of grain will be collected per mu of farmland to pay for the previous loaned cows and other silver. From now on, two dou of grain will be collected per mu of farmland, and it will be a good example forever, and no additional birth will be given. You will definitely keep your word!"

After hearing Zhu Zilong's words, he also thought about the name of a good-minded doctor. Everyone looked at each other and were all moved.

Two or three years later, each person can fully afford to collect two buckets of grain per mu!
