Chapter 102 The Situation in Liuzhou

No matter what kind of god system, there is a demand for mortals with good qualifications. Even a door god needs a good goalkeeper and a good craftsman, which is of great help to his promotion.

But it's a pity that good seedlings are rare, and Chen Qing doesn't even want to give them to Wei Gongcheng, let alone the old wolf guarding the gate.

"Don't pay attention to him, I have my own arrangements for that guy, first go to the hall to talk."

When they reached the hall, Chen Qing started to ask about serious matters: "Fatty, how much food is there in Liuzhou Mansion now? How long will it last for these new refugees in Liuzhou City?"

"Your Excellency purchased a large amount of grain when buying real estate before, and with the subsidy given to us by the Nanming Mansion, the grain is still sufficient. Even if you supply rice noodles and steamed buns that can fill your stomach, it can last for at least four or five months. If it is Use rice porridge to extend your life, and you can even last until winter!"

"Not enough." Chen Qing shook her head: "This is not a normal way to keep refugees. These refugees have to organize to work later, or join the army, or participate in land reclamation. There is enough meat and fruit and vegetables."

"What the hell?" Zhou Haitao's eyelids twitched when he heard this: "Aren't you kidding me? Meat? Fruits and vegetables, everyone?"

Even when Liuzhou is the most prosperous, it doesn't mean that every family can eat meat, right?For the coolie workers at the wharf, it is considered a luxury to eat two bowls of noodles a day. Most of them just have a steamed bun and a bowl of gruel, right?
This is because the commerce and trade in Liuzhou was prosperous enough at that time, and a lot of money could be spilled over to the low-level people. Like Baishui County where I am, ordinary farmers are reluctant to eat the fine grains grown by themselves, and have to exchange them for coarse grains and cotton. Tens of thousands of people eat meat?Is this grown-up living in a dream?
Chen Qing knew what the other party was thinking, but she didn't explain much. With the productivity of ancient times, it is indeed unrealistic for a city to feed meat to tens of thousands of people, but this kind of living standard is not good for the gods.

The Shinto system requires people to have good enough physical fitness!
Whether they are goalkeepers, mountain ghosts, or the God of War fighters that I plan to train later, they all need a lot of meat to raise, and the production level must be raised quickly.

Chen Qing thought for a while and said, "You will send out a recruitment notice later."

"Are you still recruiting soldiers?" Zhou Haitao was taken aback. Now Liuzhou counted the goalkeepers guarding the city, and now the number of soldiers is almost over two thousand, which is far beyond the authority of a magistrate, and even if the matter is urgent, what will be the use of recruiting soldiers?

"How can we save people without recruiting soldiers?" Chen Qing rolled his eyes at the other party: "There are five districts and counties down the river, and more than a dozen districts and counties along the mountain road, with a population of nearly one million, let them fend for themselves ah?"

"But my lord," Zhou Haitao said with a bitter face: "Training soldiers requires money and food, and what kind of soldiers are you planning to train? What kind of treatment is this time?"

Before recruiting soldiers, in order to make everyone work hard, Chen Qing promised heavy profits, a monthly salary of 2000 taels, and meat per ton. He felt that [-] people with this kind of treatment was already the limit, so he still recruited soldiers?If it is still the same treatment as before, there is no money to scrape him off.

"Don't worry about money, you can promise first and give later, as for food"

Chen Qing knew that it was a bit difficult for the fat man. The rice grains were okay, whether it was the rice grains stored in advance or taking people to the villages and towns to collect it, it would definitely be able to supply in the short term, but meat was basically impossible, Ma Er Mother these days, all the pigs in my hometown have been slaughtered.

This is not modern times. A pig farm produces thousands of piglets a year, and the countryside is fed with cooked feed. It is considered good if a village feeds a hundred pigs a year. Living corpses will not harm livestock. Interested, but even if the country is searched, the amount of meat will not be able to be supplied by then.

The original plan was to let the beast spirits in Nanshan Shanshenli slowly cultivate, spend half a year to find high-quality beast breeds for animal husbandry, and increase meat production.

But now the situation obviously cannot be taken slowly. Although there will be no new living corpses coming up now, and Nanming Mansion and Nanyang City will share the pressure, Chen Qing knows that this model cannot last long, even if Jiutian Jinggu deliberately Suppression, the stable situation is at most half a year.

After half a year, even the scattered ordinary living corpses will evolve to the second level. When the time comes, the outer magic circle of Nine Heavens Mirror Valley can no longer hold up, and it will be fully opened.

Even if the number of living corpses is occasionally cleared by the two big state capitals now, it will not decrease too much. In addition to the consumption of each other, Chen Qing will still have a quarter left, based on the most optimistic data. Yuchi Feihong said that tens of millions of households died in the Seventeen Kingdoms of the West Sea, and Jiangnan will face at least a million second-level living corpses!

If he wanted to protect himself, Liuzhou had to raise at least 15 elite Shinto soldiers. If he wanted to protect the entire Jiangnan, he needed at least [-]!
time is waiting
"You also promise first, I will find a way when the time comes."

"Your Excellency, you mean to draw the cake first?"

Chen Qing: "."

"My lord." Zhou Haitao said with a bitter face, "You can take it easy, how much more soldiers will you recruit? Five thousand? Not ten thousand, right? It's impossible for all the young and strong to serve as soldiers."

"That's right." Chen Qing shook his head and said, "While recruiting soldiers, farmers must also be recruited. If you announce it, the government will redistribute the farmland and provide protection."

"Recruiting farmers?" The fat man was taken aback: "Where are you going to farm?"

It's not that he has never heard of the situation in the countryside. There are living corpses eating people everywhere. Who dares to go back to farm now?

"I will arrange the place." Chen Qing said directly: "You only need to promote it, say that the place is safe enough, and the land will be allocated according to the number of people."

Fatty was curious when he heard this, where is there a safe place to farm in the current situation?
It can't be in the city, right?Some fields can be reclaimed on the Nanshan side of the city, but how much can it be reclaimed?
"Hurry up and make arrangements." Chen Qing directly took out a large pile of banknotes from her sleeve bag: "The accountants, documents, punishment rooms, masters, etc. you want can be recruited at this time, and many of the rescued people Scholars, among the people rescued in Luling County at that time were people from the sixth house in the county, you can directly recruit them, but be careful, those people used to follow Gu Beiquan in Luling County, so we must prevent them from being cautious."

"Okay!" Zhou Haitao couldn't wait to grab the large bank note, his eyes were as bright as pearls, and he, who had worked as a cashier since he was a child, immediately smiled when he took the bank note, all of which were worth hundreds of taels , such a thick stack, at least a million taels.

It's rare, it's rare, it's not in vain, Fat Lord, I've been a cow and a horse for so many days, and I'm finally willing to give money.

Not to mention anything else, I will draw my salary first!

Looking at the strange appearance of the other party, Chen Qing shook her head amusedly, not to mention these silver bills, even secular gold and silver will depreciate rapidly in Liuzhou in the future. Under the Shinto system, the spirit stone with the power of faith will be the main one. The currency in circulation, of course, can't let the fat man know about it now, and the other party won't believe it.

"Boss." After receiving the money, Zhou Haitao immediately resumed his previous intimate address: "You don't have to worry about those scholars in Luling County, I've asked, Gu Beiquan and others were not popular in Luling County before, the following The officials here are harsh, and the masters of the academy think they are not pleasing to the eye, so you don't have to worry about what they will do."

Chen Qing nodded. Without soldiers and power, and unable to leave Liuzhou, a few eggless guys really can't make a big fuss.

"It's that Liu Yiqi."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Chen Qing asked curiously.

Zhou Haitao hesitated for a moment but still said: "I know that you and Cui Yan were favored by him back then, but I think Fatty, that guy is not a good person, you'd better not use it, Boss."

Chen Qing rolled her eyes immediately, do you need to remind me?

The two female grieving ghosts who followed behind Liu Yiqi were inseparable. One could tell at a glance that this guy must have done something unscrupulous, and that he would be punished sooner or later under the Shinto system. I just didn't have the time to talk to him. .

"This Chen Qing is becoming more and more outrageous. Even if we are wrong, we are still decent scholars. Even if our official seal is deducted, we must arrange food and accommodation properly? What is it now? Mix us with these refugees , eat these every day?"

The speaker was Li Chong, the magistrate of Luling County. At this time, several people stood domineeringly on the table of a teahouse, aggrieved.

The owner of the teahouse saw that several people were all dressed as scholars. Although the other party did not pay for tea for the past two days, it was not easy to offend, so he could only hide away.

"Li Xiancheng is confused?" Liu Yiqi said coldly: "What do we mean? What is wrong with us? It is he, Chen Qing, who did not take precautions and gave no warning. We worked hard to protect the people in Luling County. However, he has no soldiers and no generals, and after organizing the people to resist for a day and a night, the city was finally destroyed. He, Chen Qing, recruited thousands of soldiers privately, but he refused to come to the rescue for a long time. How could it be our fault?"

The few people were stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted and nodded repeatedly: "What Liu Jiaoyu said is right, what he said is right!"

Gu Beiquan frowned suddenly, although he was not willing to let Chen Qing dismiss them like this, but in the end they made a big mistake, even if everyone unites and colludes, can they really turn black and white?
So he frowned and asked: "Chen Qing rescued so many people in Luling County. Among other things, those masters of the academy are all on Chen Qing's side. Will the imperial court believe us?"

"County Magistrate Gu is really confused!" Liu Yiqi sternly said, "Those low-level ant people, what kind of righteousness do they know? Can their words be used as testimony? As for those masters who don't know how to praise." He lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Although the voice became lower, everyone's body turned cold when they heard it in broad daylight, including Gu Beiquan's heart skipped a beat when he saw the other party's sinister eyes.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that Liu Yiqi's temperament has completely changed since that night, with a viciousness that penetrates to the bone marrow, and it can make your heart skip a beat just by looking at you from time to time.

Thinking of that night, when this guy pushed down those two women without hesitation, Gu Beiquan felt hesitant for the first time.

Do you really want to be with this guy?

At this moment, few people could see, but behind Liu Yiqi, two women who had been bitten to bloody flesh smiled miserably at the crowd, but the viciousness in their eyes was exactly the same as Liu Yiqi's!
