"Master, are you really sure that you can bring the Fifth Madam back?" the old butler Xiao Hong asked with concern. After Wang Zimo was resettled, in the hall, Xiao Hong, Long Hui and several sister-in-laws were discussing this matter to see if it was feasible.
"That's right, if Fifth Sister doesn't come back, she will definitely be remarried there." Xuesha hated Xiwen the most, so even with Xiao Yu's guarantee, she didn't want Xiwen to go.
Xiao Yu sat on the chair, drank wine leisurely, narrowed his eyes and said, "Is there anything that I, Xiao Yu, can't do? You think I can't defend the city, you think I can't resist Kalu, don't I Did you do it?"
Seeing Xiao Yu's confident appearance made everyone feel more at ease. Indeed, recently Xiao Yu has done many things that others thought were impossible.
Perhaps, Xiao Yu will definitely be able to complete this seemingly impossible task this time.
In the past, the Lion King Territory was incapable of self-defense, and it just passed by every day, and it might be destroyed one day, but now it is different. The Lion King Territory has developed rapidly in all aspects, and there are so many orcs led by Xiao Yu , The elf army is thriving, if they forcefully put pressure on the Wang family and refuse to hand over Xiwen no matter what, then the Wang family has to think about it.
After all, when the Wang family came this time, they thought that the Lion King Territory no longer had any power and could no longer compete with the Wang family, but they didn't know that Xiao Yu had made so many achievements recently.
Xiao Yu is full of confidence now, and dares to challenge the Wang family, even if the Wang family is wronged, and dare not do anything too extreme.
So, these few days, the lion king led the crowd and began to prepare various matters for Xiao Yu and Xiwen to go to the Wang family.
The reason why Xiao Yu asked to leave ten days later was because of his own considerations. Now that the territory has just started to develop, there are a lot of things going on in various aspects. Although Kalu's father cannot take revenge soon, he still has to guard against it.
And once Xiao Yu left, without anyone commanding them, the combat effectiveness of the troops of the three races would definitely plummet. Xiao Yu also thought about a lot of new policies on territory construction, which needed to be implemented quickly, and these had to be explained.
The Wang family's territory is more than 2,000 miles away from here. There are no planes or trains in the current transportation. It takes more than a month to go back and forth, plus it may take a month to live there, which is two months.
Xiao Yu will not be in the Lion King for two months, so he must arrange the follow-up work.
Xiao Yu first found the old housekeeper Xiao Hong and Long Hui, told them the first policy he implemented, and quickly publicized it.
This policy is also a policy of attracting population. Because of the perennial wars, the biggest problem in the territory now is the small population. Without the population, no matter how big the territory is, it is useless.
Although Xiao Yu wiped out some bandits and moved some nearby residents here, the population of the Lion King Territory is still less than 50,000, which is pitifully small.
There is nothing special about Xiao Yu's policy of attracting people, that is, tax reduction and tax exemption. Xiao Yu asked Xiao Hong to send a lot of people to the nearby territories to lobby some people, telling them that the current preferential policy of the Lion King Land, all new immigrants can enjoy three years of tax exemption, and, in order to reclaim wasteland, Xiao Yu promised everyone The wasteland reclaimed by himself can enjoy the right to use it for five years. During these five years, all kinds of grain on this land will belong to him, and Xiao Yu will not want any grain.
You must know that farmers in this era do not have their own land, they are planted on the land of the lords and nobles. In a place as large as the Lion King, all the land belongs to Xiao Yu. There became tenants and planted for Xiao Yu.
Now, Xiao Yu directly gives farmers the right to use the land freely for five years, which is an incredible policy. In this era, the privatization of land under feudalism has not yet been achieved, and all land belongs to public ownership. The sudden appearance of such a policy will greatly stimulate the enthusiasm of farmers for labor.
Although the Northwest is barren, it is not impossible to grow crops, but the yield is worse than that of some rich southern regions.
Farmers have their own land, and when they work, they must be desperate, because every grain of grain is their own. At least Xiao Yu learned a lot of history by rote memorization by the education system of that era, and he still has a good understanding of the development of these societies and how to mobilize the enthusiasm of ordinary people.
Xiao Yu knows that the privatization of land is an inevitable trend, but it has not yet formed on a large scale. At the beginning, he also planned to just like Shang Yang's reform, to abolish the well fields and open up rice fields, but he knew that this was too appalling, and Xiao Hong would definitely not agree, so he restrained himself first and gave the farmers who cultivated the land five years of use rights.
About this, Xiao Hong argued with Xiao Yu for a long time, thinking that this is really unbelievable. All the land should belong to the nobles. How can they give farmers the right to use it freely for five years
Later, it was Xiao Yu who tried hard to explain the current situation, that the population must be absorbed quickly, and insisted strongly, so that Xiao Hong was forced to agree to apply it for a period of time to see if it was feasible.
This policy has been strongly supported by the people of the territory since its inception. Recently, a large amount of land near the Lion King Territory has been reclaimed, and the daily labor of farmers has more than doubled than before.
Moreover, with this policy, some nearby people who surrendered to the bandits, or people from other territories, did come to seek refuge one after another.
In just one month, the Lion King Territory has attracted more than 10,000 people to seek refuge.
During Xiao Yu's absence, he wanted Xiao Hong to be in charge of this matter, continue to expand the publicity, and let more people come to the Lion King.
Only when there are people, there will be farmers, food, soldiers, and handicraftsmen, and this territory will be able to develop. Always stick to what the older generation does, stick to their own land, It must be finished.
Xiao Hong saw more and more people in the Lion King Territory recently, so he gradually allowed Xiao Yu's policy. Anyway, it was five years, and after five years, they could all return to Xiao Yu's hands.
Apart from this incident, the harassment of Karu's territory that Xiao Yu had always wanted to do had never been able to proceed. Harassing the other party, they are too busy to take care of themselves, so they definitely don't have too much energy to deal with the lion leader.
This has to be done, Xiao A is now just staying with these ghouls wandering around the mountains every day, killing monsters, not to mention, after a period of killing, Xiao A has reached level 4, which makes Xiao Yu looks at Xiao Ah with admiration.
Xiao Yu wanted to take Xiao A and some ghouls to harass Kalu's territory in person before going to Wang's house, tell Xiao A some precautions, and then ask Xiao A to go there every once in a while. Beg to harass and leave their domains in chaos and terror.
In addition, Xiao Yu also needs to set up some city defenses, what if someone comes to attack.
Xiao Yu knew that this unit had a strong fighting capacity, but its autonomy was not very strong, and it had to rely on its own command to exert its power.
Therefore, he now has to cultivate the autonomy of some heroes, so that they can constantly hone themselves, and they can also have their own IQ and be able to lead the troops independently.
Xiao Yu will face many wars in the future, and it is impossible for him to do everything by himself, and every hero must be able to play his own role.
Now, one of Xiao Yu's efforts to cultivate is Sal.
Thrall is the leader of the orc clan, a great chieftain, born with the temperament of a king and the talent of leadership. Xiao Yu has been honing him recently, explaining to him some basic courses of management, Yu Shiwei's management Lectures or something.
No way, Xiao Yu studied management when he was in college. Although he spent most of his time playing games, sometimes the dormitory collectively elected him to meet the teacher's roll call, and Xiao Yu had to do it a few times. class, so I also learned a little bit of management knowledge.
Thrall was also very competitive and learned quickly. It didn't take long for him to have his own set of knowledge to manage the orc army, and he established his position as the leader among the orc tribe.
Although Grom was also a hero before, he failed to become a leader. Thrall became a leader not long after he arrived, which fully shows Thrall's leadership potential.
You are worthy of being the king of the clan, Thrall.
During Xiao Yu's absence, all the monster armies were led by Thrall, and if something happened, he would assist Longhui in defending the city.
When there is nothing to do, Thrall can also go out to fight the autumn wind and kill some robbers or something.
After making these arrangements, Xiao Yu took Xiao Ah, dozens of ghouls, and a few shadows to Kalu's territory to harass.
Shadow is a good scout because it can be invisible and can spot invisible units. Xiao Yu knew that Xiao Ah was still very weak now, and if he was surrounded by the army of Kalu Territory, it would be a disaster, so he specially made a few more shadows on the sacrificial altar, as a wayfinding, every time he took action, he must Be careful.
