Chapter 165 People's Hearts(1/2)
In a blink of an eye, it was another few days, and communication and cooperation between Shangguo and Guangpingjie officially began, and everyone began to be busy.
First of all, let’s talk about Guangpingjie, and search for almost all books, exercises, etc. and give them to Shangguo; sell the "Dongpingzhou" with a radius of 200 kilometers to Shangguo, and allow Shangguo to do business in Guangpingjie, and allow Shangguo to open banks, etc.
Among the gifted exercises, several sets of methods that can freely cross the barrier, including methods to build a permanent portal.
On the other hand, Shangguo gave away a complete set of "Wanzang Book" in Guangpingjie and ten large geothermal power stations in Guangpingjie, which were responsible for the installation of main transmission lines and basic street lights, and the training of relevant technical personnel; and the thermal power station also included plumbing and heating facilities.
Ten large geothermal power plants are enough to meet the needs of ten large cities, and the geothermal power plants have a long life, and can even be regarded as half a nuclear power plant.
The large cities in Guangping Realm have almost 500,000 permanent residents. In Guangping Realm, a world where supplies are relatively poor, a city with a population of 500,000 is already very rare. When you look at the fingertips, you can only see a few major cities; the rest can barely reach the 500,000 population level.
These are all public, and King Guangping also used this to promote his kindness to the entire Guangping world. I have found a way to make the Guangping world warm and bright. Shangguo is preparing to build, and ten geothermal power stations will start construction at the same time. At the latest one day (a year), everyone can see warmth and light coming.
But there are more treaties that have not been made public. For example, when citizens of Shang Kingdom commit crimes in Guangpingjie and need to be tried, a judge of Shang Kingdom must follow them all. Similarly, people in Guangpingjie can also enjoy such treatment in Shang Kingdom - this treaty seems fair, but the national strength and legal perfection level are destined to suffer losses.
For example, in terms of tariffs and taxation, the two sides agreed on a unified 10% standard; but there are also traps here. Guangpingjie Industry does not have it, only handicrafts, which is almost a place of origin and place of dumping goods. The correct approach is to Guangpingjie collect heavy taxes and support the development of its own industry, but Guangping King did not recognize this problem.
In addition, Shangguo said that in order to develop faster in Guangping, you should adopt the mature business and economic strategies of Shangguo. Although Guangping King hesitated for a long time, he still agreed.
In fact, at the end of the negotiations, all the think tanks on Guangping King were still a little confused, and many conditions were signed were all confused. Of course, for the sake of long-term considerations, the Shang Dynasty was not too harsh, but the gap between civilization levels and the natural inequality formed was inevitable.
On this day, Shang Kingdom finally placed the teleportation array and directly connected it to the Guangping Realm barrier from the outlet of the Huangquan passage; at this time, a semicircular portal about three meters in size had been opened on the barrier; when you exit the teleportation array, you will reach the barrier, and you can enter the barrier by walking a few steps and enter the boundary of Dongpingzhou.
Dongpingzhou is located in the eastern part of Guangpingjie, and is a relatively suitable area for survival, with a radius of 200 kilometers; but there are many mountainous areas around it, which belong to the "badland". The so-called wasteland is freely developed... As long as you have the ability, the Guangpingjie plus the surrounding wasteland will add about a hundred kilometers to the appearance.
There are many earth fires in the city of Dongpingzhou. At its peak, the population in the city was about 150,000. It is not possible to count outside the city for the time being, but they are all relatively poor. In fact, after the news came out, after Dongpingzhou was sold to Shangguo, some people with some abilities here had moved away. The rest were ordinary people with little abilities.
At this time, in the back, here at the former site of the Guzhu Kingdom Palace, Li Xian sighed and watched Sun Hao leave. "I... have no secretary anymore, so I can't find someone to flatter me!"
We have to establish a base below the nine places and build a city, but who will be the lord of this city? Li Xian has been thinking for a long time, and the most suitable person is by his side - Sun Haocai!
So, Sun Haocai became the sixth secretary to walk out of Li Xian, and became the lord of the first city below the nine lands. However, considering that Sun Hao might lack talent, he also appointed several assistants to Sun Haocai.
Also, the legions that were originally stationed in the south of Shang Kingdom have now been mobilized by Li Xian because of the unification of Shang Kingdom. Su Zhongge and Ji Shaoguang led 100,000 elite legions to move into the new city to ensure the safety of the new city.
Under the protection of experts, Sun Haocai did not go straight to the main city, but walked step by step along the way to check the environment, landform, resources, agriculture, people's livelihood, etc.
As he walked, Sun Hao thought: I have learned a lot and learned a lot in the years I have been with Li Xian. Shangguo is definitely not a charity ambassador.
If a person wants to live and grow, he needs to eat; then what a country wants to grow? Needless to say, he also needs to "eat". But the food that the country eats is extraordinary. People's hearts, knowledge, territory, etc. are all the "food" of the country.
But compared with the most intense military means, Shangguo adopted the strategy of fishing big fish on a long line and boiling frogs in warm water, and this must pay attention to image issues. Therefore, on the first day of taking office, Sun Hao was ready to walk over step by step and see if there was any chance to win people's hearts.
Besides, in Sun Haocai's mind, that old city was destined to be demolished, so it would not be possible to see it.
After walking all the way, all I saw was desolation; but after entering some places that were obviously fields, Sun Haocai frowned a little. He saw that the fruit trees, crops, etc. in the field were actually destroyed! This was obvious human destruction, because monsters would not destroy them so thoroughly.
Some thin and broken people were silently picking up broken fruits, grains, etc. in the field. The cold wind was howling in Guangping Realm, and these people were trembling with coldness, but they were still picking up food.
Seeing the army on Sun Haocai's side, the people screamed, gathered to the side, avoiding, and looked at the gorgeously dressed and weirdly outsiders of Shangguo with horror and hatred.
A woman carrying a baby walked slowly and accidentally fell down. The baby cried loudly. The woman screamed and hugged the baby, staring at Sun Haocai and others in a daze.
Sun Haocai's eyes flashed, but he immediately made a decision. In the horrified eyes of the villagers, Sun Haocai squatted in front of the woman, took off his cloak and draped it on the woman, and then reached out to look at the baby. The baby was thrown very hard. A drop of fairy spirit appeared in Sun Haocai's hand, which gently dripped on the baby's chest.
A colorful light flashed, and the baby stopped crying, but instead started giggling, and even reached out to hug Sun Haocai's arm, which was very intimate.
Sun Hao smiled. After a period of research, the Shang Kingdom has confirmed that spiritual energy and fairy spirit energy are good for any life, and the innate essence energy here with the earth attributes is also beneficial to the people of the Shang Kingdom, which can consolidate the body and soul.
Sun Haocai helped the stunned woman up and said softly: "Okay, it's okay."
After saying that, he looked at the suppressed people behind him and asked loudly: "Who is the village chief?"
An old man walked out tremblingly: "Sir, I am the one. My name is Xin Ming."
Sun Hao pointed around and asked, "What's going on?"
Xin Ming suddenly became excited, his tone was angry and loud: "When Dongping Hou left, he not only took away all his wealth, but also collected all the food, whether mature or not! He even forced taxes once."
Although Sun Haocai had already made some speculations in his heart, he was still furious when he heard such words. But then, Sun Haocai suddenly felt a little unstoppable secret joy in his heart - this is a good opportunity to win people's hearts!
Sun Hao thought for a moment and asked again: "Xin Ming, how many people are there in your village?"
Xin Ming hesitated for a moment and said nervously: "There are 137 people in total, and some of them are going to hunt."
“How many villages are there around, and about how many people are there?”
"There are seventeen villages in total. Generally, there are 100 to 200 people in a village, and the total number is no more than 2,500 people."
Sun Haocai nodded slightly and said to the follower beside him: "Notify the rear that all machinery and equipment should not be transported for the time being. First, transport a batch of clothes, grain, etc., and then organize some doctors to come here. There are a large number of disaster victims who need relief."
After saying that, Sun Hao turned to Xin Ming and said, "Xin Ming, you don't have to pick up these. The weather is so cold, you can go back to the village first; it is estimated that the first batch of supplies will be delivered within an hour."
Xin Ming looked at Sun Haocai and felt a little dizzy, but he was still skeptical. He organized everyone to return to the village with anxiety. He always had a worry in his heart, and he would not massacre collectively after returning to the village, right?
When the villagers had all walked to the ground, they saw Sun Hao suddenly ordering that the soldiers suddenly parted and stood on both sides of the villagers. The villagers were frightened, but then they found that the soldiers were standing densely with the cold wind blocking outside.
The team moved forward silently, and suddenly some villagers started crying.
More than ten minutes later, a dilapidated village appeared in front of Sun Haocai. Many villages were old and even collapsed. The grass on the roof was already black and decayed, and they were still carefully fixed. Pieces of yellow mud were betting on the cracks in the walls, barely resisting the cold wind.
A few similar chickens and ducks, pigs, dogs, poultry and livestock were lying down dejectedly, and a few chickens were looking for food in the soil from time to time, but there was only yellow sand.
There were a few pieces of rag hanging on the dead branches in front of some houses. When you looked carefully, there were some clothes. They should have been dripping water after washing.
Sun Haocai was really stunned when he looked at the scene in front of him. As a new generation growing up in Shang Dynasty, Sun Haocai had never seen such a scene of poverty.
After looking at it for a while, Sun Hao felt his nose a little sore, and said to the entourage on the left and right: "If you know the earth-type magic, go build some houses. According to the standard of 3,000 people, you will migrate the surrounding villages here later."
At this time, Xin Ming, the village chief who had been following Sun Haocai, suddenly knelt down: "I represent all the people, thank you sir."
Sun Haocai nodded lightly and accepted the kneeling. If the old man was asked to get up now, it would be awkward to him. Xin Ming kowtowed three times before he stood up carefully.
Next to him, the woman with a baby on her back approached carefully, holding a neatly folded cloak in her hands, but she seemed to dare not approach her.
Sun Hao looked at the simple houses around him who had already used spells to build simple houses, then turned to look at the woman, reached out to take the cloak and asked the baby with a rosy face at the moment: "How old is the little guy?"
“It’s been 10 months.”
Only ten months old did Sun Hao stretch out his hands: "Can I see?"
The woman hesitated for a while and carefully sent the baby over. Sun Hao took it, but wrapped it with a cloak. It seemed that the baby was feeling the warmth, and the baby giggled.
After teasing for a while, Sun Hao suddenly asked, "What's your surname? Do you have a name?"
The village woman rubbed her worn clothes with her hands, a little nervous and uneasy. When she heard the question, she shivered and quickly replied: "Sir Xin. No name."
"Meeting is fate. Let me give you a name. It's Xinhai Mountain. It's as broad and deep as the sea, vast and boundless as the mountain, as steady and grand as the mountain, and immortal forever."
"Ah... Thank you, sir..."
Xin Ming, the old village chief next to him, also quickly expressed his gratitude. Sun Haocai still nodded lightly. After following Li Xian for a long time, Sun Hao understood very well that he should be superb now. If he was too polite, the other party would probably be even more uneasy. In the hearts of these suffering people, officials should be arrogant.
He teased Xin Haishan, who had just obtained his name, and suddenly his cell phone rang. Sun Hao immediately returned the baby to the woman and started the call. However, the supplies had already arrived.
In a short while, a row of aircraft flew over, and each aircraft was filled with mountains of clothes and grain. Of course, the Shangguo had storage devices, but there were no actual items that were shocking.
Just like money, the numbers are never as attractive as stacks of cash. Although disaster relief is needed, it cannot delay the show.
"The supplies are really coming..." The old village chief Xin Ming looked at the mountainous supplies and his eyes became wet again.
When the old village chief heard that Dongpingzhou was sold, the old village chief was extremely worried; then when Dongping Hou left, it was still raging. At that time, the old village chief was in despair. After seeing Sun Haocai and the army, all the remaining ones in the old village chief's heart were fear and despair.
But what happened next happened.
Sun Haocai turned to look at the old village chief, his voice exuding majesty: "Xin Ming, let everyone line up to collect supplies. Everyone who is as tall as my chest height will receive bags of food and a bag of clothes.
Children will have some hot rice first, and later there will be items specially for children and doctors."
The villagers quickly lined up, and all the items were distributed quickly at several places to collect supplies. The villagers were ecstatic, but were a little at a loss.
The old village chief came to Sun Haocai with some anxiety and wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.
Sun Haocai smiled slightly, carried his hands on his back, looked at the dim sky in the distance, and said slowly: "Xin Ming, this place has been purchased by Shang State, that is to say, Dongpingzhou is already an indivisible territory of Shang State. You are now the nationals of Shang State.
The Shang Kingdom now has a larger population than the entire Guangping world, but no one in Shang Kingdom starved to death. I know you may have some doubts, but you will understand in the future.
Now, you send someone to inform the people in the surrounding villages that they will come here to collect supplies. We will also set up a temporary medical location here to solve the problem of illness.
But one thing I want to warn you is that these materials belong to everyone. If anyone dares to extend his hand, he will be killed without mercy!"
At this moment, Sun Haocai was full of murderous intent. He used heavy methods in troubled times. Who dared to stretch out his hand at this time? Sun Haocai really didn't mind killing the chicken and scaring the monkey.
After saying that, Sun Hao suddenly opened a bag of rice and sprinkled it at the poultry and livestock next to him, full of joy for a moment.
About half an hour later, the medical team rushed over. The people were wearing white coats and mountains of plastic boxes on their aircraft. These boxes included medicines, food for minors, etc.
The medical team was soon ready to check the situation of the infant and young children first, then check the health of the children and teenagers, and then it was the adult's turn. In addition to milk powder and other foods, there are also toys.
At this point, all the talents in this village finally accepted a reality - they were not dreaming!
After looking around, there was orderly order. Sun Hao left a team of soldiers and led the brigade away.
"Great Sir." Xin Ming shouted, leading the villagers to kneel at the entrance of the village. But this time, Sun Haocai suddenly stopped, reached out to take a whip from his follower next to him, and whipped it at the old village chief.
It slapped the old village chief's face and a bloodstain revealed. The old village chief was stunned.
"Stand up!" Sun Haocai's tone became cold.
The old village chief was still in a daze.
Sun Haocai whipped over again, this time he became even more ruthless, and it was just bloody and vague, "I asked you to stand up, didn't you hear it clearly!"
The old village chief stood up tremblingly this time, looking at Sun Haocai in fear, not knowing what to do.
To be continued...
