"Okay, everyone, come and help tie these guys up!"
In addition to farming, the villagers here are also good at hunting. Naturally they will not feel uncomfortable seeing such a scene. The village chief took the lead and walked in. Most of their faces were excited. They not only defeated the people who had been bullying them. , and took back the town he had worked so hard to build. Of course, he was even more grateful to Yang Zhijun and others.
After the battlefield was cleaned up, the village chief came over with three other people who looked to be in their forties or fifties.
"Mr. Yang, they are all the village chiefs of the other three villages who came this time. We just talked for a while. It is basically your fault that we can get the town back this time. You are always allowed to stay in the warehouse, and so are we. I am extremely ashamed. Everyone thinks that you can live in this small town. This was originally the place where we exchanged goods with different villages in the past. It will be more convenient for people from other villages to come to collect food in the future."
Yang Zhijun could see that this was the true thought of these villagers. It seemed that his goal had been basically achieved, and the construction of the first base area could begin.
"The town is where you live, so naturally we can't move in. But don't worry, since we have helped, we will naturally help you to the end. We plan to build our base behind this town and make this town Expand and gather all of you and nearby villages to build a town. Otherwise, if something like this happens, if it spreads to the imperial capital, someone might come after you. You have also seen what these so-called nobles do. We are here If I don’t make it in time, I’m afraid I will regret it.”
And in the future, there will be a steady stream of people from other places coming to exchange goods, or even move here directly. Yang Zhijun can already predict what kind of prosperous place this place will become in the future, and it will also be their beginning in this world.
"This... this is really... great! Mr. Yang, don't worry, we are not people who don't repay our kindness... Now that the empire has reached this point, then what do you care about it and pay every year? There are so many taxes, why not just do the opposite!”
The village chief held Yang Zhijun's hand with excitement. They were actually a little worried. Yang Zhijun and the others might not stay here for long. They might leave one day. Let's not talk about the food issue then. What would happen if the empire came to find them? , they wanted to keep them when they let the town out, but now it's really better than they imagined, no, it's countless times better!
After Yang Zhijun stayed there to appease the villagers, he directly found an unoccupied room and contacted Shen Fu immediately.
"In other words, your first step has been basically completed, a little faster than I thought."
After hearing the whole story, Shen Fu was basically certain that at least those seven or eight villages with a population of more than 10,000 people had basically won the hearts and minds of the people, and once they had started, it would only snowball in the future. , This is how the revolutionary army in the south was formed, not to mention that they had advantages that the revolutionary army could not match.
"Yes, the next step is to start construction. We need to mobilize a construction team that can guide migrant workers. The more construction starts, the better."
After all, there are still thousands of young and strong laborers here. In terms of plant species, almost enough plant species have been collected and studied, and the demand for dangerous species is quite large, which just allows these villagers to exchange their labor for food.
"Well, don't worry about this. Let me tell you some good news. Those engineers are also rapidly learning and absorbing the modular construction technology of the heavy equipment world. The construction speed has also been greatly accelerated. I will dispatch an engineering force in a moment. And bring enough food supplies.”
The so-called modular construction is to first build the building modules one by one in an assembly line factory elsewhere, and then transport them directly to assemble them when they are needed. The building is manufactured as a product. Although there is still some learning in materials and machine tools. Not as good, but directly transporting advanced production machine tools from the Heavy Equipment World to the Iron City World, and then using the abundant raw materials there for production and construction, is actually no slower than the construction speed of the Heavy Equipment World.
Again, if you can't digest the technology in a short time, then use the technology directly first.
Shen Fu was also very happy to see that Yang Zhijun had already established a firm foothold, but this also meant that the investment had to be increased accordingly, and he also had to speed up the progress. At least he had to seize the time to tell An Ning that this would happen at any time. The point that triggered the serial rebellion was resolved.
After spending a day issuing orders and increasing the personnel and supplies there, I returned to the Night Raid Headquarters and found Chi Tong. At this time, the construction of the Night Raid has entered the middle stage. It is estimated that it will be completed in another four or five days. I don’t know how many “hunters” Esdeath has gathered.
"Chitong, do you know some information about the religion 'An Ning Dao'?"
That's right, Shen Fu found Chi Tong just to see if the night raid intelligence network could provide any useful information.
"An Ning Road?"
At this time, Chitong had just returned from hunting and was cooking dinner. He was cooking and eating under Shen Fu's gaze, and his mouth never stopped bulging.
"I've heard of it, but not very clear. If necessary, you can ask Ma Yin and the others to check it out. Most of our original intelligence networks from the Revolutionary Army only provide relevant information when releasing missions, but please go and check it out. Okay...do you want some too?"
Seemingly seeing Shen Fu staring at her, Chitong thought for a moment and pushed the plate full of food in front of Shen Fu.
"No, I'm just curious about how you can speak so clearly while eating... Well, I'm also hungry after seeing you eating for a long time."
Shen Fu suddenly remembered that for Chi Tong, being willing to share food means that she regards you as a companion. Although it is strange to say this, in Chi Tong's concept, the only thing that is more important than food is probably companions. .
He stretched out his hand and took a few fruits and threw them into his mouth. The sour taste was not bad. Shen Fu roughly told Chitong what happened with Yang Zhijun, but naturally he did not tell them their purpose. Although Chitong could now They were said to be companions, but they were also under the confidentiality system. The other two Anning Taoists did not run away, but they were not killed either. Yang Zhijun planned to use magic to torture some information about Anning Tao.
"I understand, I will make arrangements. This kind of religion...should be buried."
As expected, using kindness to defraud the poor of food is an act that makes even Chitong feel angry, but speaking such majestic words with a bulging mouth is inexplicably cute...
