The Most Lord

Chapter 9: Gather people, open up wasteland

I want to come to Allen. If you want to make your territory develop quickly, the most important thing is population. Without population, no matter how large the territory you enclose, you can’t develop it. You want a hundred residents to support a big city, is it possible? Therefore, population is the most basic thing in a territory. Once there is a sufficient population, as long as the funds and resources can keep up, new farmland can be reclaimed and the development of the territory can be expanded.

When it comes to expanding territories, the kingdom's management of territories is very non-strict and irregular. For example, Allen’s territory is Tru Village. How much land does Na Tru Village occupies? This is something that the empire has not put on record. Even if Allen expands Tru Village several times or ten times, the kingdom will not punish Allen's crime of privately expanding his territory.

In fact, if Allen can develop the small village of Trucun into a town or a small city, not only will the kingdom not punish him, it may also give Allen some rewards, especially if Allen has the background of the Senlan family. Case.

"Lord Lord, what can I do if I come over to the old man?" Village Chief Jill bowed and asked after knocking on the door and entering Ellen's room.

"Village Chief Jill, please sit down," Allen kindly greeted the Chief Jill to sit down: "I asked you to come here today to discuss with you how to develop the territory in the future. I don't know if the village head has any good suggestions. "

Village Chief Gil was a little excited after hearing Ellen's words. Is Lord Lord finally going to develop his territory? Very good! Village Chief Gil sorted out his thoughts and said: "Lord Lord, I don’t know much about the old man, but Lord Lord wants to develop territory, the most important thing is population. These people in the village alone may not be able to help Lord Lord too much. ."

"The village chief thinks the same as me," Allen said with a smile, "but where does this population come from, I don't have a clue. The village chief has a good idea."

"If you say that in other parts of the kingdom, maybe there is no good way, but on the border, it is not too difficult to gather people." Village Chief Gil said.

Mr. Jill’s words made Allen's heart overjoyed: "I wish to hear the details!"

"My lord also knows that our villages located in the border area are often attacked by wild beasts and even monsters because they are adjacent to the wilderness area. In addition, the nearby thieves are rampant, so most of the village days, It’s not a good fate. As long as the Lord Lord can provide enough force to protect them from wild beasts and thieves, I believe many villages are willing to move over."

"In fact, over the years, many villages have been destroyed due to the invasion of monsters and thieves. The survivors of these villages will basically join the nearby villages, and the nearby villages are willing to take them in. After all, no one can say anything. It's time to be your turn."

When Village Chief Jill talked about these things, he was full of bitterness. When he talked about these things, he almost shed tears and hurriedly wiped them with his hands.

After listening to Mr. Jill's words, Alan felt a little congested in his heart, filled with sympathy. He didn't expect the life of the border residents to be so difficult, and said that it was precarious. At the same time, Alan also had a trace of disgust for the Lord Benedict of Nice City. He didn't believe that the Lord Lord was really helpless against the nearby thieves. According to the mayor of Gill, City Lord Benedict had sent troops to encircle and suppress thieves several times in the past few years. I am afraid that this City Lord has seen few encirclements and suppressions and did not gain much, so I am afraid of trouble and don't want to waste money and soldiers in vain.

Monsters are natural disasters, but thieves are man-made disasters. If City Lord Benedict spends a little time on fighting thieves in the past few years, Allen believes that these thieves will not be so rampant. But now that he is here and he has the most lord system in his hands, then these thieves don't have much madness to live on! When I have enough strength, I absolutely must first take these nasty thieves at the knife!

"As Village Chief Gil said, since the living conditions in the nearby villages are not very good, then we might as well absorb them all into the territory. With Galen and Laks here, I believe that ordinary thieves and monsters can't harm the village. This way. We can not only have enough population to develop territory, but also provide protection for the nearby villagers who have migrated. This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone." Allen said.

"My lord said that I will personally go to the nearby villages to lobby and let them join our territory."

Allen nodded: "But don't be too hasty. Just contact two or three villages for the time being. After all, we have limited funds. If too many people flow in, we can't afford it." Allen said.

Allen’s character has always been that he will do it immediately when he thinks of it. It can be said that he is vigorous and resolute, or it can be said that he does not think twice before acting. Now that he had discussed the solution to the population problem with the mayor of Gil, Allen immediately called Alex and asked him to take four guards to protect the mayor of Gil to lobby in other villages.

After the mayor Gill and Alex and the others left, Allen came to the village alone on the clearing where the timber was stored. Before Allen went to explore the wilderness area, he arranged for seventeen captives of thieves to mine timber nearby. These captives of thieves naturally did not dare to be lazy under the watch of the guards. At this time, the open space was full of timber.

Since the villagers from other villages are to be moved over, it is natural to help the other party to solve the problems of housing and land. It is easy to say that the fields are wasteland around the village. As long as people are sent to cultivate, it can be used immediately. The problem of residential housing will be solved by these woods.

Fortunately, just after the autumn harvest, new seeds have been sown. Now most of the villagers are idle at home, and there are enough labor forces on the territory. It is worth mentioning that the main food crop in the East Continent is a crop called rice and wheat. Farmers on the mainland plant this crop throughout the year. They can harvest two seasons each year, namely the spring harvest and the autumn harvest.

Allen asked the young adults and thieves and captives in the village to gather together, announcing the news that villagers from other villages might be merged into the territory, and then assigned tasks to everyone to cut logs, build houses, and reclaim new ones. farmland.

The season of planting in autumn is not over yet, and now we are reclaiming new fields, and we are still in time for autumn planting this fall. The villagers heard that other villages were going to be merged into the territory, and they were very happy, and they were happily working. They may not understand the development of territories, but they still understand the principle of large numbers of people living in border areas.

In the afternoon, the head of the village Jill and others returned to the village, and at the same time they brought representatives from three other villages, two elderly people, and one mature man.

"Hi, Lord Lord, Mr. Gil has already talked to us. We are happy to join your territory and become your people. But our village has just finished autumn planting. If we migrate now, I am afraid that we will even have food next year. Can't eat it!"

After the three respectfully saluted Alan, they expressed their concerns. Living on the border, Allen's three villages cannot refuse the security protection they provide, but they will lose their fields if they leave their villages. This is their most worrying thing.

But for Allen, it’s not a big problem at all: “Don’t worry a few, I have arranged for the villagers to reclaim wasteland. After you move over, each household will be allocated a new field, and the seed field will be provided for free. You are now moving here and you are in full time for planting. As for your original fields, I will send someone to take care of them later. After the spring harvest next year, the harvested grain will be distributed to everyone, so you don’t have to worry about the grain issue."

"And I have arranged for people to build houses. After you relocate, you don't have to worry about housing problems. If there are any other difficulties you can tell, I can help you solve them together."

After Alan finished speaking, staring at the three people in front of him, waiting for them to make a choice.

After the three of them heard Allen’s words, they were moved in a mess. They really didn’t expect that the young lord in front of them was not only willing to provide protection for them, but also helped them solve their most concerned problem: "Lord is kind! We are here. Go back and arrange for people from the village to move over."

Following such a benevolent lord, the future life must not be bad!

All three villages decided to move over, which made Allen's heart overjoyed. In a short time, he didn't have to worry about restricting the development of the territory due to population problems. Ellen simply asked Galen, Lacus and the entire guard to protect the migrating villagers so that they could migrate safely. After all, the migration of the entire village is not a small project, and Allen doesn't want to be robbed by the nearby thieves.

And where the new houses are to be built, Allen has to plan carefully. After all, the territory is intended for continuous development. If you don’t plan ahead and demolish and rebuild it in the future, it will be extremely troublesome.
