Although Zhu Tianming was delayed a lot of time, Xu Xiu and Que Hu were leading cavalry and infantry, as well as many young and old, so the marching speed should not be very fast.
So we quickly caught up with the big group.
Xu Xiu said to Zhu Tianming:
"My lord, we have just sent the cavalry to rush back to the village. I believe General Zhou will lead many carriages and horses to pick us up."
Zhu Tianming nodded. Xu Xiu seemed to be very sensible and had arranged these things in advance.
There is no need for Zhu Tianming to arrange everything one by one.
"Let brothers speed up and return to the village first!"
Zhu Tianming said that he couldn't wait now.
"promise!"
Two days passed by in a flash, and Zhu Tianming returned to the village smoothly.
During this period, Zhou Zheng also arrived smoothly with his troops to pick up Ou Tiancheng's family, young and old.
As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the village, we saw a built earthen wall.
It seems that promotion to the town is a sure thing.
Hou Yongshou and Ji Hongyun also came to greet them with many officials and villagers.
"I am waiting for the lord (village) to return to the village."
Zhu Tianming said:
"No need to be polite. During my absence, Tianshu Village has troubled you all."
"How dare you take credit for what is your job?"
Ji Hongyun and Hou Yongshou said modestly.
"Let's go into the village!"
Zhu Tianming, Ji Hongyun and other officials returned to the village political hall, while Xu Xiu, Que Hu, and Zhou Zheng led the soldiers back to the military camp.
Hou Yongshou, on the other hand, was busy allocating houses and arranging residence for the Ou Tiancheng people.
As soon as he entered the meeting hall, Zhu Tianming sat down and drank a glass of water, and Ji Hongyun began to report the situation.
"My lord, in the two months since you have been away, half of the vein discovered in our village has been mined.
There are now more than 5,000 units of iron ore, more than 2,000 units of timber, and more than 2,000 units of stone in the village.
As for grain, there is still a lot left, and there are still 1.05W units. "
Zhu Tianming nodded. When he left, he exchanged 10,000 units of grain, which was 1,000 kilograms.
Zhu Tianming said:
"I also harvested a lot of food this time, more than 16 million catties. I believe there will be no shortage of food in the village for the time being."
Zhu Tianming said as he took out the storage bags, a total of seven storage bags.
"This is full of food. You can take it to the warehouse later."
Ji Hongyun took the storage bag and said:
"The earthen city walls in the village have also been built. Many defenses have also been built in Tianxuan Village, Tianji Village, and Tianquan Village. Manpower is now being organized to build the earthen city walls to prevent foreign enemies from attacking."
Zhu Tianming said:
"Well, I feel relieved that you are doing the work. What about other than these?"
Ji Hongyun said:
"Every deputy shop is working step by step. During this period, we have collected more than 5,000 refugees.
Now the population of the village is 1.8 people, and with the more than 6,000 people brought back by the lord, there are already 2.40,000 people. "
Zhu Tianming praised:
"You are doing a good job, do you have any special talents?"
Ji Hongyun said:
"There are no very special talents, but there is an intermediate shipbuilder and an old county magistrate.
In the past, this old county magistrate managed the government affairs of a county. With him, the old people might be able to relax a little bit. "
Zhu Tianming nodded and said:
"Yes, Not Bad."
Then Zhu Tianming took out another 10 cubic meter storage bag, handed it to Ji Hongyun, and said:
"This is a storage bag with a space of ten cubic meters. You can use it first."
Ji Hongyun said:
"Thank you, my lord."
Before Zhu Tianming finished speaking, he said again:
"There are also some cultivation resources in it, as well as top-grade heaven-level exercises, innate elixirs, and two low-grade minor magical powers as rewards."
Everyone present immediately became shocked.
"Wow!"
More than a dozen officials are only at the third or fourth level of acquired skills and cannot use the innate elixirs, but they can learn the martial arts and small magical powers.
Zhu Tianming shouted:
"Shen Jing, you will behave well in the future and you will do the same.
I have also prepared for you a copy of the Xuan-level middle-grade Kung Fu "Purple Feather Manual", which is obtained by breaking through the Ziyu Sect. You can practice unimpededly to the peak of the late Jindan period. "
"Thank you, my lord!"
Everyone said one after another.
In fact, Zhu Tianming still has a copy of the Xuan-level mid-level skill "Ying Jiang Bao Gong", but he can only practice it to the early stage of the Golden Elixir.
It is not as powerful as the "Purple Feather Manual", so I chose the latter.
These officials are all loyal to 90%, and when they were in the village before,
Zhu Tianming also carries out village-loving education. They are all very reliable people and are now the mainstay of Tianshu Village.
"In addition to a mid-grade Xuan-level technique, I will also give you a Great Return Pill to help you practice, and a minor magical power called the Purple Feather Sword Sutra."
Zhu Tianming continued.
"Thank you so much, my lord. I will definitely die in the service of my lord."
Everyone shouted.
Zhu Tianming said:
"You all deserve it. I won't treat anyone badly."
"Thank you, my lord!"
Zhu Tianming seemed to have remembered something and said again:
"Ji Hongyun, you will also give a copy of the Xuan-level mid-level Kung Fu "Ying Jiang Bao Gong" to every mid-level associate professional master in the village later."
"promise!"
Only by treating people differently can people be motivated. Otherwise, who would work hard if they were all treated the same?
Only when there is a difference, people will work hard to move up and climb up.
Absolute fairness cannot exist in the world. It will not exist at any time or anywhere, only relative fairness will exist.
This is also a means of controlling subordinates and a way of competition.
Without competition, it would be like stagnant water, lifeless.
As for junior talents, it is a yellow-level high-grade skill.
Speaking of deputy talents, Ji Hongyun seemed to have remembered something and said:
"My lord, the intermediate alchemist Bai Zhuo seemed to have an epiphany a month ago and became a senior alchemist. We now have two senior alchemists in our hands."
Zhu Tianming said in surprise:
"really?"
"really!"
"Okay, okay, Bo Zhuo and Lei Ziping asked them to practice the "Purple Feather True Sutra", and the "Purple Feather Sword Sutra" was also taught to them."
Zhu Tianming said directly.
This old man has been obsessed with alchemy for many years. Unexpectedly, he finally broke through to become a high-level alchemist. It was an unexpected surprise.
"Yes, my lord!"
Ji Hongyun said again:
"My lord, fishermen who went out to sea for fishing discovered a small active volcano thirty nautical miles away."
Zhu Tianming was surprised:
"Is there any danger to us?"
Ji Hongyun said:
"No, although it is an active volcano, according to the observations of some experienced fishermen, it has not erupted for many years."
"That's good!"
Zhu Tianming calmed down instantly.
"Okay, since there isn't much to do with government affairs, you can go down first. I still have something to do."
Zhu Tianming said lightly.
After everyone left, Zhu Tianming began to think.
Now Tianshu Village only lacks two special talents, the formation mage and the weapon refiner. In this way, the basic prototype of a force can be built.
Alchemists, weapon refiners, array masters, restraint masters, spell masters and legendary Feng Shui masters are all necessary and necessary secondary talents that are indispensable to a force;
Next are winemakers, tailors, shipbuilders and other assistant talents in various fields.
Of course, this is only a deputy talent.
There must also be enough civil servants and military officers, whose importance is no less important than the first-echelon deputies.
The development of Tianshu Village has a long way to go, and a huge amount of time and money need to be invested in the early stage.
Only when a force gradually takes shape, will it gradually reverse and feedback to Zhu Tianming.
