"We really can't, but my teacher can!" Aslan said very seriously.
The two suddenly showed a bitter face, which is the rhythm of working for others.
Aslan continued: "Mined in her name, and pay the salt tax in accordance with the laws of the kingdom. The extra salt mined can be digested by our territory."
The two still looked ignorant, and Aslan could only say helplessly: "It is impossible for the royal family to completely control the salt iron, because that will only arouse the dissatisfaction of the great nobles of the whole kingdom, because the benefits contained in it are too great. Up."
Wilshin and Essien looked at Aslan in shock.
It turns out that there is such a secret between the nobles and the royal family.
It is no wonder that the royal family has always been so defensive against the high lords of various regions.
"So the most important thing now is to establish villages and towns. As for the salt mines, we must delay first." Aslan said very decisively.
"Although there are all deserted mountains and ridges, it does not mean that there is no use at all." Aslan said enthusiastically.
"There is a plant called sea buckthorn in Le Mans Mountain. This plant can grow fruits because of sea buckthorn fruit. It has a cool taste, but it is rich in vitamin C and can be grown on a large scale."
"Not only that, but also on the top of the Le Mans Mountain, you can also grow the most precious white flower of Merlot Baiyao, which can reduce the production price of our Merlot Baiyao in the future."
After Aslan said that, Essien and Wilshin also thought that Le Mans Mountain was a good place.
"How many troops should be stationed in those two fortresses? How many people should be deployed? After all, these two fortresses are now poor and white, and they are no better than Wood Fortress." Essien said with a headache.
"This is simple, just like Changfeng Town." Aslan said confidently.
Will Xin and Essien shook their heads at the same time, they wanted to say that Lord Lord is a prodigal.
How much is one-tenth of the land? Take Changfeng Town as an example. Today there are 5,000 mu of cultivated land, and more than 500 acres have been distributed to the people. In addition, today, a few hundred acres have been given away, which is enough. The two old men in Merlot were so distressed that they couldn't sleep.
"In the early stage, the two thousand elites were sent first, mainly to build the housing and defense system, and the agricultural development can be postponed. After the establishment of these facilities, there is a place for shelter, and then the development of agriculture, the environment of the Merlin Fortress and the Stone Fortress. I have heard that it is very suitable for planting poplar cassava. This is a very high-yield food. This is the integration of poplar cassava planting techniques and methods that have been asked by the people in these two areas these days." Aslan finished. The drawer took out a document and threw it in front of the two of them.
Wilson picked it up and saw that many places on it had been modified by graffiti, showing that his owner had studied and assessed him many times.
"I understand, I will go back to sort out this plan immediately, and at the same time, based on your above situation, explore the surrounding area to see how much suitable poplar cassava planting area is."
"The population transferred in this way is not enough to consume the existing surplus population, should we transfer to Changfeng Town?" Essien asked tentatively.
Because he has already set his sights on Changfeng Town, Changfeng Town is really very suitable for planting buds and fruit trees. How big is the Changfeng Plain and how many fields can be developed once it is fully developed.
100,000 mu? Still a million acres?
"No! The alien forces on the Changfeng Plain are very powerful. We have just finished a big battle. We need a good rest to consume the benefits gained. The people also need to rest. It is not suitable to stimulate the aliens on the Changfeng Plain. It is still the same as before. One hundred people are relocated every month."
"Stone Fortress and Mayyang Fortress each send five hundred city defense forces to garrison, Merlot infantry still stationed at Wood Fortress, Merlot Crossbowmen and Heavy Guards are in charge of the Merlot Town garrison!"
Aslan looked at the map and began to say, still rubbing his head constantly, the territory was getting bigger and bigger, but the troops on hand were still too few.
Several fortresses must be garrisoned. Once the fortresses of Stone and Merlin are established, they will successfully contain other areas' gateways to the Merlot area, so they must be stationed.
The real reason for sending only 500 people is that there are no soldiers to send.
"Then recruit another three thousand soldiers, one thousand construction corps!" Aslan said very decisively.
"Then there are more than 20,000 people?" Essien said with a numb scalp, he had a bad feeling.
Aslan spread out his hands very bachelor.
"I can't do anything for the rest, the population soared so much all of a sudden..."
Suddenly, Aslan remembered how he handled refugees from large-scale wars in his previous life.
"Establish large-scale farms in these places. All the farms belong to the lord. They work on the farms, including food and housing, and they can get the same wages as tenants, so they should be able to eat a large number of people."
Wilshin and Essien couldn't help but their eyes lit up and they praised them.
"Lord Lord Shengming!"
Aslan nodded very contentedly.
"The farm will bother both of you. As for the managers, I suggest that the disabled and retired veterans should be responsible. The farm area should be subdivided and accountable. The first half of the year will be completely closed management, so that the people on the farm can integrate into the United States as soon as possible. The environment of Luozhen can also screen out the spies who are willing to insert themselves."
Wilshin and Essien quickly wrote down the matter.
The population problem was solved, and there was a knock on the door.
Aslan rubbed his temples, and Essien and Wilshin stepped back quickly.
Those who came in were high-ranking officers such as Arthur and Gao Wen. They found their seats and sat down.
"Don't talk nonsense, the report says the report! The proposal says the proposal."
Compared with the two old antiques, in front of these trusted officers, Aslan looked much more casual, lying on the boss chair, and said with a tired face.
"Because of this expansion, our army has 985 Merlot infantrymen, 1,050 Merlot crossbowmen, 200 heavy guards unchanged, and the city defense army 2,056. This also includes the Five Hundred City Defense Army stationed in Changfeng Town."
Arthur stood up and said.
Aslan nodded and looked at Gut, the commander of the boot camp.
"How many slave soldiers are willing to turn into soldiers?"
"According to the physique standards listed by the lord at the beginning, there are only more than 7,000 qualified soldiers for the slave soldiers. After excluding some older and younger grades, there are about 4,000 soldiers in the training camp now, because of the slave soldiers. , I soon adapted to the life of recruits, trained very hard, and after three months, I can join the troops.” Gut explained earnestly.
Aslan nodded in satisfaction, and the problem of the army's manpower was solved at once. As for Essien's conscription can also be slowed down. Anyway, there is a planned farm, plus there is food on hand, even if the population doubles again, it will be completely. be able to eat.
