-------------------
Wei Xiaobei took a closer look, just as Zhao Tong said, the fence of the village has moved a lot outward compared to yesterday.
Wei Xiaobei can confirm this point by checking his memory, besides, there is a large open space between the fence and the house, and the extent of the village's expansion can be seen directly.
To be precise, the village expanded by at least fifty meters overnight!
If the village expanded more than 50 meters outward, it should at least occupy a lot of cultivated land close to the village, but Wei Xiaobei took a closer look and found that this was not the case. The area of cultivated land reclaimed yesterday was not bad at all.
In other words, the expansion of the village seems to squeeze out an area on the basis of the original space.
But after checking several times, Wei Xiaobei couldn't see anything strange. He could only say that the land area here had increased invisibly.
Thinking of this, Wei Xiaobei's eyes simply fell on the village, and he activated the Know everything, but deliberately avoided those villagers.
Name: Village (Common)
Introduction: This building is a derivative of Zhao Yunjun stationed for more than three days. Zhao Yunjun can collect food from the village, collect taxes, recruit recruits, etc. When the fields belonging to the village exceed a certain range before, the village can automatically Promotion, the fifth-level village can be promoted to a small town, but ten villages can only be promoted to three small towns...... ..

Effect 2: Taxes can be collected at a rate of 5% of commercial income.
Effect 3: Grain requisition can be levied at a rate of 10% of the grain output.
... ... ...
Could this be the legendary farming style
Wei Xiaobei suddenly felt that cultivating land was not a troublesome matter.
This village seemed to bring Wei Xiaobei a pleasure of playing games.
There is no doubt that this village was at the first level before, but after Wei Xiaobei and Bai Mayi reclaimed 800 mu of cultivated land. The village is upgraded and becomes a second level.
"You take someone to reclaim the cultivated land first, and I'll go in and have a look."
After Wei Xiaobei exhorted Zhao Tong a few words, he walked towards the entrance of the village.
At this time, the houses in the village were emitting smoke, and the villagers were all making breakfast.
In addition to the change in the village, the tree in the center of the village has become bigger.
Wei Xiaobei looked it up, and found that the attribute table of this big tree was full of question marks, the only thing that could be seen was the name and a small amount of introduction.
Luck tree!
brief introduction. This is where the luck of the village lies.
The better the village develops, the taller the big tree will grow. As for more, there are no more in the introduction.
After a while, Old Man Tian, the village chief, the old man who sold Wei Xiaobei's honey, came over with a gong.
Perhaps it was the benefits brought by Wei Xiaobei's land reclamation. After seeing Wei Xiaobei, Old Man Tian's face became more amiable, and he saluted: "Mr. Jun. Did you come here so early to collect food or soldiers?"
Wei Xiaobei wanted to see how the food collection and military conscription was done, but he also knew it. Without the military order issued by the Chinese army's big tent, if he wanted to collect food or soldiers, he would violate the military law, and he didn't want to try the taste of the whip again.
"It's okay, just go around, what are you doing all the time?"
Wei Xiaobei looked at the bronze gong in Old Man Tian's hand, and in silence, everything was activated.
To say that this gong is barely considered a treasure.
Name: Summon Gongs (Boutique)
Introduction: This item is held by the village chief. Once it is sounded, the whole village can be convened for discussion.
Well, although its effect seems to be similar to that in reality, the effect of a high-quality copper gong may not be so simple.
"Little old man, this is going to call the villagers to build houses for a few families of refugees from the east of the village."
Old man Tian answered Wei Xiaobei's question truthfully.
refugees
Wei Xiaobei decided to follow along.
Seeing that Wei Xiaobei was fine, the old man Tian immediately rang the gong in his hand.
After a bang bang bang sound, the whole village gathered around from all directions, seeming more excited. Already have tools on hand.
What kind of hoe, what kind of axe, what kind of saw, etc.
After a few words of advice, Old Man Tian led the village, old and young, towards the east of the village.
Sure enough, Wei Xiaobei saw a group of refugees at the east end of the village.
Let's say that the villagers' clothes are worn out. But the tattered place is also mended, and it looks relatively clean. But this group of refugees was different. The clothes on their bodies were almost rags, their faces were covered with mud, and they were holding small packages on their black paws. Seeing the villagers coming, they seemed a little nervous.
"Fellow folks, since you have come to settle in our village, then you are from our village, Mr. Zhang!"
After saying a few words, Old Man Tian yelled, and then two middle-aged men walked over with a steaming wooden bucket.
Immediately, the sound of swallowing came from the throats of the dozen or so refugees.
This bucket of food is porridge made of wild vegetables and some rice grains, but in the eyes of these refugees, it is undoubtedly a delicacy.
The refugees rushed forward, if the two men hadn't yelled loudly, the bucket of porridge would have been fed to the ground.
Afterwards, under the leadership of Old Man Tian, several shabby wooden houses were quickly erected in less than 20 minutes. Wei Xiaobei suspected that this speed was a unique effect of the village.
After the refugees have eaten and drank enough and moved into their new homes, they wash up, and their mental outlook changes drastically.
The increase in the population of this village depends on these refugees
Wei Xiaobei was a little puzzled about where these refugees came from, but Wei Xiaobei could probably guess a little bit, perhaps they were created out of thin air.
This is the gray world!
Sure enough, not long after, Old Man Tian took people to the west end of the village to feed a group of refugees who came out of nowhere and build wooden houses.
Gradually, from early morning to noon, the number of refugees who had defected exceeded hundreds, which was equal to the previous population of the village.
However, the open space after the expansion of the village is estimated to be able to accommodate a hundred or so people.
After noon, Wei Xiaobei heard the characteristic hooves of a running horse in the distance.
Not long after, Old Man Tian went out to greet him. Afterwards, a general in civilian clothes came over accompanied by Old Man Tian, followed by several soldiers, leading two wandering horses.
Wei Xiaobei recognized this general, he was an acquaintance.
"Brother Chongshan, why are you here?"
Since it was not in the barracks, Wei Xiaobei seemed a little more casual, arched his hands, and greeted the general, calling him by name.
"It turned out to be Brother Baihu. This time, I came here to recruit soldiers under the order of the general."
That general is Zhao Yunjun's master, Zhuge Kongming's nephew, Zhuge Jun! The word is Chongshan.
"Brother Chongshan is free to do so, and the younger brother is just looking at it."
Wei Xiaobei smiled and walked with Zhuge Jun.
And Zhuge Jun kept the soldiers busy.
A soldier took out a notice and pasted it on the big tree, while the rest of the soldiers arranged the tables, chairs and other things.
Then the old man in the field knocked on the gong and yelled loudly: "General Zhao sent someone to recruit troops, and they came under the big tree on purpose."
After shouting a few times, many young and strong came one after another, and the soldiers standing under the announcement began to explain the announcement to them.
The general idea is that for those who join the army, the grain requisition at home will be halved, and they will have to settle down as usual.
Not to mention, as soon as the settlement fee is paid, many young and middle-aged people are eager to try.
In other words, this consistent copper coin is one thousand Wen. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the copper coins made by warlords in various places were extremely inferior, and there were even iron coins in circulation.
However, Zhao Yunjun's 1000 Wen is an imitation five baht coin minted by the Shu Han Dynasty. Although it is smaller than the five baht coin of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is thicker and has some reputation among the people.
At that time, 5,000 renminbi could probably buy a bullock, and 2,000 renminbi could buy a low-quality ox. Well, 1,000 renminbi, the value is not too small. You can buy a flock of chickens for your family and buy some It is more than enough for home use.
Besides, after joining the army, there will be military pay, including food and clothing.
For the vast majority of young adults in this impoverished village, it is quite attractive.
But the soldier then said that the three sons in the family are given priority, and the only son is not allowed to join the army.
This condition immediately wiped out most of the young and strong.
In the end, there were only three poor people who were able to register at Zhuge Jun to join the army, and even two of them were refugees who had just entered the village.
Zhuge Jun was not at all displeased by this, he took a brush, wrote down the names of the three people, then handed three small cloth bags to the three people, and told them to go to the camp in three days, if there is any mistake, He will be punished for the crime of running away!
The three of them happily went home and settled down with their purses making a crisp clattering sound.
Wei Xiaobei also understands that with the current situation of the village, if he recruits a large number of soldiers, it may not be long before the village even has no farmers.
Only three people were recruited, which was not beyond what the village could bear, but it also let the villagers in the village know that Zhao Yunjun was recruiting troops, laying the foundation for the future.
Sending Zhuge Jun away, Wei Xiaobei went outside the village and brought Bai Ma Yicong to reclaim the fields.
He is very interested in the development of the village now, and wants to see how far the village can develop.
After all, this village is the foundation of Zhao Yun's army. If the village is poorly developed, the food can be said to be good, and the field can be used to deal with it, but the follow-up military resources will be more troublesome.
At night, Wei Xiaobei took Bai Ma Yicong to reclaim more fields than the previous day, a total of 1,400 mu!
Including the first day and the fields reclaimed by the village itself, the total number of fields in the village has reached more than 2,300 mu!
This should bring the village up to level three.
Wei Xiaobei thought about the village for a while, lay down in the tent, and slowly fell asleep.
The next morning, when Wei Xiaobei stepped out of the tent, the first thing Wei Xiaobei focused on was the village.
Sure enough, the village was promoted again. (to be continued~^~)
