Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

Chen Chu galloped towards Longhu Village on his horse.He couldn't wait to see what his village had become.

Not long after walking, Chen Chu saw from a distance a high fence standing on the location of Longhu Village, surrounded by the fence, he could faintly see new houses.

Chen Chu was a little surprised, and unknowingly moved faster.

When I came to the gate of the village, I saw a lot of people standing at the gate, probably more than a thousand people.Chen Chu couldn't help being a little speechless, it's only been a month and a half, how come there are so many people in Longhu Village! [

Chen Chu saw Deng Gong and the energetic Zhang Rui standing at the front of the crowd.Chen Chu got off his horse, and Deng Gong came up to him in three steps at a time. Behind him were several young people from the village that Chen Chu had seen.

Before Mr. Deng came to Chen Chu, someone rushed ahead of him.This person is none other than Zhang Liao's younger sister, Zhang Rui.

"Brother, you are back." Zhang Rui jumped up to Chen Chu and shouted happily.Then he looked behind Chen Chu and asked suspiciously, "Brother, where is my brother?"

"I asked Wen Yuan to stay in the county government for the time being and come back later."

Zhang Rui still wanted to say something to Chen Chu, but Deng Gong and the others had already come in front of Chen Chu.So Zhang Rui stood behind Chen Chu very sensiblely, and didn't speak any more.

"Master!" Deng Gong knelt down excitedly, and the others also knelt down and said together. In the open field, the voice spread far away, and the scene was quite spectacular.

"Deng Gong, didn't I say not to bow down?" Chen Chuyu helped Deng Gong up with reproach.Then he raised his voice to the people around him: "Everyone, get up."

"Thank you, my lord."

Afterwards, Chen Chu and Deng Gong walked into Longhu Village hand in hand.In fact, Longhu Village should not be called a village anymore, it might be more appropriate to call it a town.The original low and leaky huts have disappeared, replaced by rows of newly built wooden houses, and the area of ​​the village has also increased many times compared to the past.

Chen Chu also found that the spiritual outlook of the villagers in the village was completely different from that of a month and a half ago. Everyone's faces were full of longing for the future, and when the villagers saw Chen Chu, they would show sincere gratitude.

Chen Chu couldn't help but feel a little flustered, he had never experienced being looked at by so many people with reverence and gratitude.

Under the guidance of Mr. Deng, Chen Chu came to the center of the village, where there is a two-story wooden villa that is obviously much larger and better than the surrounding houses, and a courtyard is surrounded by a circle of earthen walls. .

"Deng Gong, what is this?" Chen Chu looked at Deng Gong with a questioning look in his eyes.In fact, he had probably guessed it, and just wanted to confirm it.

Deng Gong smiled respectfully and replied: "My lord, this is built by the villagers."

Chen Chu nodded, and walked in without saying anything.Deng Gong, Zhang Rui and others followed behind him.

As soon as you enter the villa, you can see all kinds of furniture.The furniture is very new in quality, obviously newly made by the villagers for him.

Chen Chu nodded in satisfaction, and couldn't help admiring in his heart: Mr. Deng is really careful in his work.

After walking around the new home, Chen Chu, Deng Gong, Zhang Rui and others sat down in the lobby.

"Deng Gong, tell me about the current situation of our Longhu Village." Chen Chu said to Deng Gong with some expectation. [

"Yes, my lord." Duke Deng clasped his fists in agreement.

I saw Duke Deng took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve, and said: "My lord once told me to do two things with all my strength, one is to build a large house, and the other is to reclaim wasteland. It has been a month and a half since today, and the new grain fields have been reclaimed. [-] mu, with a total of [-] mu of grain fields; the newly built houses can accommodate more than [-] people."

Chen Chu nodded. It is quite good to achieve such a result in such a short period of time under the condition of being completely self-reliant. It can be seen that Deng Gong and other villagers are very hardworking.

"Very good, Mr. Deng, you and everyone are doing very well."

"Thank you, my lord." Deng Gong clasped his fists and said with a very excited and happy expression.

"Mr. Deng, when I came in just now, I saw that there were many more people in the village than before. Could it be that all the refugees I asked Shopkeeper Wei to help recruit have come?"

Mr. Deng nodded, but his expression became a bit bitter. He only heard him say: "My lord, what you saw just now is only one-fifth of the population of this village. The rest are working outside the village."

Chen Chu was taken aback. According to Mr. Deng, Longhu Village now has a population of 6000.

"What's going on here? I only asked Shopkeeper Wei to recruit 6000 physically fit refugees into the village, how could there be so many more people?" Chen Chu frowned, and his tone was a little displeased. It wasn't that he didn't want to help the displaced. The refugees are really limited in their ability, and there is no way to support such a large population. 70 people!The 6000 catties of grain that Chen Chu asked Weidu to buy could hardly last until the grain matured in Xiaqiu.To support these 100 people, almost 30 million catties of grain are needed, of which the gap reached [-] catties.

Sensing Chen Chu's displeasure, Mr. Deng hurriedly said: "My lord, shopkeeper Wei is not actually to blame for this matter. Shopkeeper Wei's people actually only sent over a thousand people, and the rest came here by themselves after hearing the news. "

Chen Chu was speechless for a moment.The current situation is turbulent, and the common people are struggling to make ends meet. As long as they hear that there is a place to settle down, they will of course flock to it.Chen Chu didn't consider this issue at all when making plans before. ! ~!
