Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 454
Yellow Wolf is currently in command of the improvised city defense team.He's pretty nervous because his resume isn't stellar.If there are layoffs in this world, then he knows that he must be on the layoff waiting list.It may also occupy a relatively advanced position.

In this world, no matter which civilized race it is, it highly praises courage and loyalty, and despises escape and betrayal.Of course, Kunwu City is no exception.When Zhang Cheng came to Kunwu City, Doctor Kunwu immediately took a fancy to him because he showed great loyalty and courage in the matter of his son being chased and killed by Quan Rong (although this matter had nothing to do with Zhang Cheng).

At that time, Zhang Cheng's rank was very low, and in terms of strength, he was not as good as the chariot soldiers in Dr. Kunwu's army, and even the infantry were barely.But even so, he also got the fief Lutian and was canonized as a corporal.This shows the general opinion of people in this world.

Fortunately, Zhang Cheng and the little girl's side is somewhat different from the general morality of this world.For example, they don't think it's wrong for yellow wolves to run away after soldiers flee uncontrollably.Rather, it would be considered unavoidable.Even if he didn't run away, he would die in vain, worthless.

So although the matter was a bit embarrassing, it was not enough to be beaten to death with a stick.

Because of uneasiness, Yellow Wolf performed very well with the little girl, and it is not an exaggeration to call it conscientious.

"He's under a lot of psychological pressure. Brother Zhang Cheng, if you think this person is useful, give him the status of a retainer." In her mind, the little girl reminded. "There is no need for more rewards or anything. There is no need to give money or canonization."

"Why?" Zhang Cheng asked a little puzzled. "No need for canonization? I plan to make him a corporal."

"According to management theory, rewards need to be given little by little, and punishments need to be in place at once." The little girl said.

Huang Lang was anxiously giving a detailed introduction of the current situation of the border town's defense and foreign enemies.

The strength of the city defense is still very weak. If the dog soldiers come, they will not be able to defend on their own. They must ask for reinforcements from Kunwu City.Fortunately, Inurong has already retreated.

This is because after the arrival of spring, the comprehensive strength of the two sides began to be gradually reflected.The coalition forces of the princes of Zhuxia can still support it, but the momentum of Quanrong's vigorous efforts has faded a lot.

Before the dog army attacked Kunwu City, they planned to capture the entire area of ​​Wangji in one go and occupy all of this land.

But Kunwu City is a corner of Wang Ji on the one hand, and a typical hard walnut on the other hand, which is hard and difficult to chew.It is really worthless to invest too many troops, but it is impossible to attack without investing too many troops.The risks and benefits are not directly proportional, and have been removed from the field of vision by the senior management of Quanrong.Anyway, that's the case here in Kunwu City. It's just a doctor's force, and there is no ability to counterattack at all.That being the case, it might as well focus more attention on those positions that need more attention.

Small corners, not worth too much effort.

Therefore, the dog army that was threatening the border town had already retreated.In order to prevent Doctor Kunwu and Doctor Xijun from taking advantage of it, these jackals carried out extensive damage when they retreated.Now the border town has become the border... Going forward, it will be a wasteland that was completely destroyed by the war.

Cities were destroyed, villages and towns were burned, residents were "sanguanged", and wells were poisoned... This large-scale burning, killing and looting cannot be recovered within a hundred years.

Because the destruction was relatively thorough, normally speaking, the Wolf man would not march in that direction again.Because the logistics can't be maintained.

The last time I was able to kill it was because there were still villages and towns to plunder along the way, and there were a large number of humans that could be used as rations.But now all that is gone.As long as there are no special accidents, the border town is safe.

This is why Dr. Kunwu can safely and boldly prepare to leave Kunwu City with all his subordinates to take over his new territory - only Zhang Cheng is left to be vigilant.

Of course, in the border town, they were still worried about the long-distance attack of the wolf man.After all, this is a high magic world.For this reason, the necessary warning lines must be set up, and beacon towers must be arranged or magic-based warning measures must be established.

The above is the situation introduced by Yellow Wolf, as well as the targeted military measures for the current situation.

Zhang Cheng was a little surprised. Although Yellow Wolf's professional level was not high, he was actually quite talented.Because at least at Zhang Cheng's level, there is absolutely no suggestion for revision.

"Okay, good plan." That's all Zhang Cheng could say. "Yellow wolf, I now think you are a talent... Would you like to stay by my side?" he asked.

This sentence is very obvious solicitation.For a person like Huang Lang who has nowhere to go and who has a disgraceful record, there is no need to think about it at all.

"I am very grateful for your kindness, and the yellow wolf is willing to die for you." The yellow wolf was overjoyed.He knew that he and the group of people he represented had been approved by Zhang Cheng.For the time being, at least temporarily, settled down.Border Town has one of their locations here.If you want to secure your position, you will need to work harder in the future.

In addition to this group of people, there is another group of people.

It was the group of workers recruited by the little girl during this period.The leader, or the person sitting here at this moment, is a commoner in Kunwu City, who is in charge of the papermaking industry in Zecun, and his name is Baiyu.

It is said that he came from the state of Chu. I don't know what his identity is. He may be a bankrupt businessman, a fugitive slave, a wanted criminal, or an ordinary immigrant civilian.But in general, I did a good job in the papermaking workshop, and was promoted to a manager by the little girl.

Of course, the little girl's promotion is unreliable, she is only Zhang Cheng's fiancée after all.This kind of promotion must be approved by Zhang Cheng.

Through the little girl's introduction, Zhang Cheng found out about Bai Yu's situation.He also followed the little girl's suggestion and promoted him to be an official in charge of papermaking—or a foreman.Bai Yu's status is even lower, and even the retainers are out of his turn.He has to serve for a long time in the future and prove his loyalty for a long time, so that he is eligible to be accepted as a retainer by the border town doctor.

There is another person, the body.

The old man has been conscientious and has performed extremely well during this period of time, and at the same time he has also shown good qualities in the border castle.Especially if he can keep his words under control, he can do things well, and he can complete all the tasks that are arranged very well.The little girl suggested that Zhang Cheng should be exempted from his status as a slave and promoted to be a minister—that is, the situation on Bai Yu's side was similar.Of course, this promotion is not just for one person, but for his whole family.

The body was so grateful that he knelt on the ground and refused to get up for a long time.

As for other things, such as Zhang Cheng's economic situation, it's the little girl's turn to report.

But the little girl doesn't need to report, he only needs to take out a few pieces of paper, that is, a report, and explain everything clearly.

Zhang Cheng remembered that when he was canonized as a corporal by Dr. Kunwu, everything he got (including land) was converted into money, which was about the grade of Shangbei Fifty Peng, and the annual normal income was one-tenth, that is, Shangbei Wupeng .Expenses are ignored.Because at that time he only had slaves, and the slaves themselves had no wages.

But it's different now. Since he got his own residence, the number of people who need his money to support has skyrocketed.His current annual expenditure is about seven hundred friends in Shangbei.That's not all, because among other things, the army alone is not enough.In other words, if it becomes a normal state in the future, it will probably become a state of doubling the expenditure.

And his income is up to 1 friends.

This is mainly because the damage in the border town is very serious. Although it has not been completely destroyed in an organized manner, it has also been brutally ravaged by dogs.The residents died and fled, and lost most of their lives. At this time, they still need to rest with the people. Not only can they not get tax income from this land, but they also need to spend money to help the poor build houses, subsidize their lives, and relieve the poor.

After seeing this number, Zhang Cheng couldn't help turning his head to look at the little girl... The latter was proudly puffing out her chest, and her expression was like "Praise me quickly! Compliment me quickly!".

Uh, how should I put this, it seems that the little girl was born in the United States, and the string of "making money" has never been missing in her mind.Combined with her high intelligence and the difference in technology between the two world civilizations, it seems normal to have this effect.

Zhang Cheng couldn't understand this better.Because taking out the earth's worthless glassware, porcelain and so on, it's like whoring for nothing, exchanging all kinds of good things from Yingqiu or Guicheng.

The little girl does not have the ability to be a plane merchant, but she can also make money by making use of the difference in technology.

Zhang Cheng continued to read the report, and found that the first month after he left, the paper mill started to make money after the construction was completed.First, it was sold to businessmen from Chu State, and then it began to spread to other places, making money continuously.

Now Kunwu City is more prosperous than before the war, and there is a steady stream of businessmen from Chu State, part of the reason is paper.

Because of Zhang Cheng and Dr. Kunwu, the construction, production and sales of the paper workshop did not encounter any trouble.It has even been greatly facilitated in foreign transactions-because Dr. Kunwu has a very good relationship with Chu people.

The relevant papermaking process was carefully studied by the little girl, and the quality of the produced paper was very good, and it was loved by Chu State from the very beginning.It goes without saying that after using light paper, things like bamboo slips become rubbish.Although the papermaking workshop worked overtime day and night, there was still an endless stream of business travelers looking for paper.

At present, the annual income of the papermaking workshop is expected to reach [-] yuan.

In addition, there is income from ore.Because the border town is dilapidated, there is no hope for taxes and so on. On the surface, he is a border town doctor, but in fact his name is not worthy of his name (at least it seems that way).In order to appease Zhang Cheng, Doctor Kunwu generously handed over the jade mine that Zhang Cheng found in the swamp to the little girl.

The current Doctor Kunwu no longer has this ambition.His gaze had already surpassed this small Kunwu City.These sources of income, which were quite precious in the past, are not in the eyes of Dr. Kunwu at all now.How could Dr. Kunwu care about a mere small jade mine when he became the king of the Xu Kingdom and ranked among the princes?Although Xu State is the country of the smallest and lowest barons among the vassals, it is the land owned by the ancestors of the Kunwu family in the past.The location is close to the Central Plains, fertile and fertile. In popular words, it is called a fat land.

In fact, since a long time ago, Dr. Kunwu hadn't paid much attention to the jade mine.So he may not be aware of it at all (even if he is aware of it, he may not be very concerned) that the reserves of this mineral may be a little different from what he expected.

This is no ordinary small mine.After the little girl took over, she sent someone to investigate carefully, and she went there to use some magic detection herself.Maybe the people on earth have a better vision, maybe the little girl is more serious, but it turns out that its reserves are far richer than expected.Of course, the little girl immediately started to increase the ore production.In particular, it effectively improves the enthusiasm of the lizardmen slaves—in the eyes of the earthlings, the labor productivity of slaves is too low.There are many simple ways to improve production efficiency, and the brutal methods common in barbaric societies are actually very ineffective in improving production efficiency.

Although it doesn't take long to get it, mining income is always the most stable.With the current situation, the annual income can reach [-] friends in Shangbei.

In addition, the little girl didn't waste these two months in the border town.Here suitable kaolin was found, so a new ceramic industry had started.It has just started operations, and it is very popular because it uses a common but improved process in this world.At least the businessmen from Chu State were happy to bring some.

It's not that the little girl doesn't know how to make better pottery, but because she made the choice comprehensively considering manpower, equipment, worker proficiency and the external environment.

There is a piece of paper that is already very eye-catching, if there is another high-grade ceramic... Well, I am afraid that this side will be regarded as fat by others.But this is only temporary. According to the current situation, the ceramic industry still has potential to be tapped.

All in all, all is well.So good that Zhang Cheng didn't know what to do.It seems that everything is in order, and it is almost the same with him or without him.

It can only be said that geniuses are so awesome, can I wait for mortals to look up to?
Not only that, but in the report provided by the little girl, there are things that Zhang Cheng didn't consider...the future.

Doctor Kunwu is leaving.It wasn't that kind of ordinary departure, but he took almost all his subordinates and went northward collectively, first to meet the emperor, and then to take over Xu Guo.

At present, the state of Xu should be under the control of the coalition of princes.It stands to reason that it would be very difficult for Dr. Kunwu to take over Xu Guohui, because the attitude of the princes towards the new emperor is ambiguous.But if the takeover is successful, there will be no one here in Kunwu City.

What Xu Guo owns is land and wealth that can be rewarded and distributed by Dr. Kunwu to his loyal subordinates.In an instant, Kunwu City became dispensable.However, if Dr. Kunwu fails to take over, he can only retreat.At this time, the border town will become an eyesore.Those interests that Dr. Kunwu ignored in the past may be in danger of being taken away.

The income of 1 friends in Shangbei is a must for a doctor.
