In the central meeting hall of Qinjiazhuang, Qin Ge sat in the main seat with his head lowered and lost in thought. It had been three days since he returned from Yelang Village. In that battle, more than 600 people were killed, including 400 Dongyue soldiers. There were 200 members of the Qin clan, but they completely wiped out 4,000 Star God troops and more than 7,000 other Evolver troops, killing tens of thousands of enemies. It can be said that the results were fruitful.

However, the huge gap between the Free Territory and Xingyao is gradually exposed. First of all, in terms of the size of the army, not to mention the number of troops in the Free Territory, Xingyao can continuously recruit evolvers from the affiliated territories, and in terms of combat methods, , in Xingyao's Yellow Turban World, the Five Thunder Talisman Seal Script can be called abnormal. If Qin Fukian hadn't turned the tide at the critical moment, I'm afraid it would have been destroyed this time.

Qin Ge started to back off a little at this time. Now that the battle at Yelang Village has destroyed the prestige of Free Village, it seems unwise to stay here and fight with Xingyao.

"Brother!" A familiar voice broke Qin Ge's thoughts. He raised his head and Zhuge Xiaoliang trotted in at the door.

Qin Ge put away his distracting thoughts and said with a smile: "You're here! How are the Qin family's arrangements? How is the territory's garrison and business development?"

Zhuge Xiaoliang saw that Qin Ge really cared about the territory, and said with a smile: "Brother, just be careful, will there be chaos in the territory with Man Chong's sea-fixing needle?"

Qin Ge laughed self-deprecatingly and said: "Yes! Boning alone can defeat thousands of troops. Now as the territory grows stronger, his ability will become stronger and stronger. Our territory has restrained him!" Qin Ge dared to mobilize the troops of the Free Territory to participate in the battle of Qinjiazhuang, leaving the empty territory. The reason why he had the courage was that he had many favors to guard the whole battle, otherwise it would be an act of seeking death.

Zhuge Xiaoliang continued: "But this time Qionghua Village is really righteous. They have sent two thousand peasant soldiers and one thousand evolvers to garrison Free Village. At the same time, Man Chong asked Sun Kang to tangle the idle peasant soldiers together for militarized training. , five thousand militiamen can be quickly mobilized during battle! At the same time, Man Chong introduced some measures to prevent spies, which were supported by the whole people. In addition, Han Feng, the new member of the territory, had super investigative abilities, especially his superb disguise skills. , it can be said that it is pervasive and has destroyed spy camps in many places. The group of spies currently wreaking havoc in the Free Territory has almost disappeared!"

Qin Ge nodded with satisfaction. At present, the development and stability of the territory is the most important thing. Zhuge Xiaoliang continued: "The market and restaurants in the territory have been completed. The market is in charge of Wei Sanniang according to the request of the eldest brother. The eldest brother is indeed very discerning. , Wei Sanniang is proficient in business and manages the entire market in an orderly manner. Whether it is the pricing of goods, the management of stalls, or the order of the market, she has established a complete system. Because the market is formal, the surrounding villages are currently Villagers from the Free Territory came to the market one after another, and even residents from many towns also came. Brother, have you not seen the crowds in the Free Territory on the day the market opened? The market can currently pay taxes of up to 500 taels of silver. And this number will continue to rise with the development of the territory! However, the goods are a bit small. At the same time, the Piaoxianglou restaurant owned by the little master has also been completed. When the restaurant was built, it came with a kind of wine called "Piaopingxiang". The boss has resigned from the position of Huotoujun and started to run a restaurant. The business is not to mention booming. Two days ago, a down-and-out scholar appeared in the restaurant. He is a gold-level talent. He was received by Man Chong. This person is called Wang Jie. Man Chong lets He became a scribe. I heard from many rumors that buildings like restaurants are very attractive to scribes, especially fine wines and delicacies. I asked the young master to do his best to study the fragrance of bottles and develop the wine industry, but This was opposed by Man Chong. He said that the current situation is turbulent and the people are living in dire straits. They spend a lot of grain to make wine, which is simply poisoning the people of the world! This guy still has some ideas that can't keep up. If he can make good wine, he can change hands. The money earned from selling it is much higher than the grain consumed, just like our domestic Moutai! I tried my best, but the guy just wouldn't allow it, so I could only secretly provide grain to the little boss, and the elder brother also has to do this. I hope you can persuade me!"

As the saying goes, no one is perfect. Man Chong has historical limitations in some things, but he is not stupid. Qin Ge is confident that Man Chong will soon discover the role of business.

Qin Ge touched his chin and said in deep thought: "What do you think of Wei Sanniang's idea of ​​letting the remaining money flow to start trade with the south?"

Zhuge Xiaoliang said: "It's very feasible. Wei Sanniang is very thoughtful, good at people's minds, and good at business affairs. Now she has made careful planning and arrangements for the territory's business, and she personally went to Jiangnan to conduct on-site inspections.

!For the sake of convenience, I selected some loyal and capable brothers and asked Han Feng to lead them to follow. At the same time, for future trade, Fan Wenjin also followed. The group had teleported to Jingzhou two days ago!"

Qin Ge thought of Wei Sanniang's face and those decisive and tenacious eyes, and frowned: "You can learn about the market conditions from local players through the forum, why bother to go far away to investigate in person?"

Zhuge Xiaoliang shook his head and smiled and said: "Brother, you will look like a layman after hearing what you said. Today's trading houses are not as simple as you think. Nowadays, Huaxia's trading houses are dominated by merchants such as the Zhen family in Jizhou, the Wei family in Hedong, the Mi family in Xuzhou, and the Lu family in Jiangnan.

The monopoly of giants, coupled with the imperial court's ban on trade, and the world's resources are in the hands of noble families. The noble families have formed a monopoly situation with these merchant families. Moreover, these people generally have no good impression of us evolved people and regard them as aliens!

Nowadays, even those aristocratic families in reality cannot reach that class and can only operate in some black markets. However, Wei Sanniang is actually a master businessman and is recognized by the merchants. This is very influential among merchants, and

He has a business order and can do business legally, and only he can go deep into the Southern Trading Company. Like us, we were rejected! There is no way out if you have money, and it is easy to be jacked up. Not only can you not take advantage, but you can also easily suffer losses!"

Qin Ge frowned. Wei Sanniang was very strong-willed and had a toughness in her bones that ordinary men didn't have. She flicked the table and chairs with her fingers, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

"Hey! Brother, are you worried about Wei Sanniang? She looks like a flower, will she be in danger in this troubled world? You can rest assured that Wei Sanniang is as cunning as a fox. Even I am fooled by her sometimes. Plus

Han Feng is good at the art of disguise, brother, keep your heart in mind, I believe she will give us a surprise for the free tie, and also make that guy Man Chong stop his discrimination against women!" Zhuge Xiaoliang winked at Qin Ge.

Qin Ge shook his head speechlessly. This kid must have gone astray, and asked about agriculture and territory construction.

Zhuge Xiaoliang said with satisfaction: "Currently, the registration of the territory's citizens has been completed. A total of 12,000 strong laborers have been awarded land titles. All 70,000 acres of cultivated land have been contracted out. Cattle, farm tools, and seeds have been distributed. People in the territory have

Residential houses have all been built, all made of stone. Currently, cloth mills and textile mills are being built in the south of the city, and animal pens and shooting ranges are being built in the north of the city. At the same time, Man Chong is planning to build Wenxuan Pavilion, near the market at Wei Sanniang's suggestion.

I purchased the drawings of a grocery store and now plan to build an officially operated grocery store. However, due to the busy farming season and the construction in the territory, the two projects are temporarily shelved due to lack of manpower. The blacksmith, workshop, and hospital

The museum is now in normal operation. Among them: the blacksmiths and workshops, in addition to serving the people's livelihood, have begun to develop war equipment. The territory has now entered a stage of rapid development. In Shixia Village, the Free Territory has dispatched 500 craftsmen.

Construction, and Man Chong's clan members have also moved to Free Village. Man Chong's clan uncle Man Chui once worked as a literary writer for the county government. He has political experience and is a political talent at the peak of gold. Now he has been sent to Shixia Village to assist A

Feng manages the village, and Man Chong's clan brother Man Wen, although only in his early twenties, is already a third-rate political talent and is good at supervising hundreds of workers. Since Gongsun Sheng has always complained that managing hundreds of workers delays his research on skills, I

After discussing with Man Chong, Man Wen was put in charge of supervising the production of hundreds of jobs, and Gongsun Province was liberated so that he could specialize in the workshop! Man Wen got started very quickly, and has very strong human management and resource dispatching capabilities. Although there are many industries in the territory that are waiting to be developed, and construction is started in both directions.

However, the construction of the territory is only in order, and the construction efficiency has also been improved. Manchu and Manwen are two rare talents. In particular, Manwen has a "preparation" specialty, which can carry out hundreds of projects in the early stages of construction.

Planning, greatly improving resource utilization and manpower deployment, the growth potential is very huge! There are also a total of 158 people who have immigrated from the whole family. Excluding the elderly, weak, women and children, there are 32 people who can use it, all of them are bankers.

With talents above grade, besides the Sun family, the Man family is now the second largest family in our territory!" Zhuge Xiaoliang mentioned the rise of families in the territory, and seemed to have something to say. He knew that Qin Ge was one of the leaders of the rebel army, and he had no idea about class.

This thing is very sensitive.

Qin Ge also heard what Zhuge Xiaoliang meant and said: "People are different from birth. Some are excellent and some are clumsy. There are many jobs in society, and those who are good at it will do their own thing. The advantages and disadvantages of wealth and resources will also be reflected accordingly. This is society

The essence of human rights cannot be changed. I am not pursuing absolute fairness that fits all, but relative fairness that gives everyone opportunities, equal status, and free development for everyone, so that the strong can make the most of their talents, and the weak can be supported, and the elite

Classes can exert their own value, and disadvantaged groups also have fair channels to make full use of their talents!"

Zhuge Xiaoliang fell into deep thought and said for a long time: "Brother does not exclude the family. The separation policy was set up for the Sun family last time because the sons of the Sun family were generally brave. It was not to suppress the emergence of the family elite, but to create a fair tone.

At that time, the laws in the territory were incomplete, and the people's awareness of obeying the law was weak. Moreover, the eldest brother was a famous righteous man, and the Sun family children were brave and made great achievements in the territory. If the crime was committed and handled improperly, it would probably cause immeasurable losses, so you

Implementing the separation policy! And now that the Man family has taken the initiative to abide by the separation policy after arriving in the territory, this provides a good foundation for the future absorption and development of nobles in the clan! The eldest brother is really smart!" After speaking, he frowned and said: "But Panshi

The mayor of the town, Shi De, is nothing!"

Qin Ge was a little curious and said: "What's wrong! Why is Panshi Town involved again?" Qin Ge had no impression of Panshi Town. As an affiliated village of Panshi Town, Panshi Town is an economic and cultural center with a radius of hundreds of miles and is the center of evolution.

A centralized gathering place, and now Qin Ge still holds the official title of Chief Panshi!

Zhuge Xiaoliang said angrily: "The establishment of this market has a great impact on the entire Panshi Town. More than a dozen surrounding villages have expressed their willingness to cooperate with us. Man Chong took the opportunity to send envoys to establish diplomatic relations and discuss how to use the market to

The villages are connected together, gradually establishing your rock-solid prestige, and at the same time establishing a community of destiny, so that in the future, all the villages can be connected as one, and the power of the Free Territory can be strengthened. Many villages have expressed their welcome, but this bastard Shi Jiade, we

I sent an envoy, but he not only beat me up, but also threatened that you are a young boy who got lucky enough to climb the high branch of the county guard. This Panshi Town belongs to their Shi family, and it is not your turn to be a weirdo.

People are pointing fingers, many villages are afraid of this bastard power, so they withdraw from market cooperation, and some villages can only cooperate with us secretly!"

Qin Ge tapped the table and said: "Who is this Shi Jiade? He is so domineering! Didn't Sheriff Zhang say that he is already an old man? So let me replace him!"

Zhuge Xiaoliang rolled his eyes and said: "That fat man is really full of nonsense. This Shi Jiade is just thirty years old and is actually a second-rate scribe. He is very famous in Mou County. There are bandits in other towns, such as Shixia

The Shixia Village in the town, but there is banditry in Panshi Town but it is not large-scale. There are tens of thousands of elite village warriors in Panshi Town. It is called the largest town among the five towns in the eastern district of Mou County. These are all of this Panshi Town.

It took him five years to run it after De was elected as the head of Panshi. This guy was also unlucky. Hearing that the county magistrate planned to transfer him to be in charge of the county, he was dismissed by Fatty Zhang on the pretext of being an octogenarian.

Being reduced to ordinary people, it can be said that the future is ruined. Fatty Zhang did not dare to complain, so he poured out all his anger on our heads."
Chapter completed!
