Yu Buzhi didn't offer to raise wages for the villagers on a whim.

In the initial stage, there are two main obstacles restricting the development of the player's territory: talent and population.

The village-level territory is protected by the system and can be protected from attacks by other player forces. On the other hand, powerful lords are temporarily unable to obtain the population and talents urgently needed for territory development by attacking other lords. During this period, the population growth of the player territory mainly depends on

Refresh refugees. The main factor that affects the refresh of refugees is territory satisfaction.

The higher the satisfaction level, the faster the refugees will be refreshed.

Raising wages for villagers is the only way to quickly increase satisfaction.

Zhulu collar currently has a small population, and a comprehensive salary increase will have little impact on the territory's balance of payments. Relatively speaking, if a salary increase can help the territory meet the conditions for upgrading to a third-level village faster, it will be a very cost-effective investment. Moreover, the villagers

After receiving more salary, it will be brought to consumption, which will not only stimulate the commercial development of the territory, but will also eventually become part of the territory's income through various methods.

The people are prosperous and the country is strong. Although Zhululing is just a small village, the principles are the same.

Zhulu collar can make a profit by clearing out the cottages, and the territory has enough economic strength to improve the treatment of villagers. Yu Buzhi has already planned to raise his salary, but he is still considering the timing of the raise. It is a critical period for attracting refugees, and Xu Shu hopes to "teach him

"For profit", Yu Buzhi just took advantage of the situation to make a decision.

News of the salary increase will be announced soon.

The villagers rejoiced and laughter could be heard everywhere in the territory.

The three monks who stayed in Zhulu to take care of the injured looked at everything in front of them with envious eyes.

People don't like farming, but that doesn't mean they don't want to live a prosperous life.

While recovering from their injuries, they learned about the salary levels of the Zhulu villagers.

Although the average salary of villagers is not as good as the income of a person who accepts employment, there is no risk. The income of a mercenary depends on the number of tasks. Sometimes there is no war for months, and villagers can get stable returns; if a person becomes a mercenary,

The women in Zhulu Village can also get good remuneration through their work. If compared by family unit, the Zhulu villagers have an obvious advantage.

The salary of all villagers was increased by 30%, which made the mercenaries jealous.

The three mercenaries gathered together and whispered.

"Really want……"

"Their village chief is very generous, but our patriarch is stupid..."

"Don't say that. The patriarch is still very fair, but he doesn't make much money..."

"If you can't make money, isn't it stupid?"

"Well, it seems to make sense..."

The three men fell into silence. After a while, one of them suddenly said, "How about we ask if we can stay?"

After Xu Shu and Lao Lin Yun discussed it, Zhulu leader quickly formed a team of more than 20 people to welcome the refugees, and sent people to nearby towns to rent several oxcarts with a large amount of food. When everything was ready, Lao Lin Yun

He personally led the team towards the north.

Zhululing’s actions to welcome the refugees quickly showed results.

In the afternoon of the next day, the oxcart returned with a full load, unloaded the people and luggage, and immediately set off again.

Five oxcarts were packed to the brim, bringing back nearly 60 refugees to the territory, including two skilled personnel.

Xu Shu was not surprised by this. Skilled people came first from the common people, and even when the rat infestation was serious, they had to run away.

The territory has long been prepared to receive refugees. Xu Shu has a strong sense of foresight. Before Lin Yun set off, he began to arrange for manpower to build residential buildings in advance. This also ensured that when the first batch of refugees arrived, there was no problem due to insufficient residential buildings.

, having to sleep outside the house.

Overall, the refugees are well taken care of.

At night, when Yu Buzhi and Xu Shu visited the refugees, everyone was generally satisfied with Zhulu Ling.

After a night's rest, the refugees began to invest in the construction of the territory.

With the addition of fresh troops, Xu Shu gradually had more room to deploy manpower. The work of building residential buildings continued, and the transportation of loot that had been stalled due to the reception of refugees was restarted.

On the afternoon of the third day, more refugees arrived.

Because there were too many refugees, the oxcarts could no longer take everyone away, so the elderly, weak, women and children could only be allowed to ride in the cars, while the refugees in better health walked with the oxcarts. Therefore, this batch of refugees was particularly large, with more than 110 arriving at once.

People, Zhululing seems to have become lively all of a sudden.

Under Xu Shu's arrangements, the refugee reception and resettlement work has been proceeding step by step.

The Zhulu villagers who followed the car to take care of the refugees and acted as guides brought back bad news: Zhulu leaders used oxcarts to carry the refugees south, and could not avoid the gaze of the territories along the way. Now competitors have appeared in the border areas, and other territories are following suit.

, using free water and bullock carts to attract refugees.

Finally, the villagers who followed the car proudly said: "Don't worry, adults, we will get the highest salary!"

The implication is that Zhululing still has an advantage in the competition for refugees.

Xu Shu hurriedly ran to find Yu Wuzhi and said seriously: "Sir, if this continues, our population will reach the upper limit tomorrow and we will no longer be able to accept refugees. I have asked Wang Hui to select young men from the villagers to form a territorial army.

, the military camp can only recruit 50 people at most, I’m afraid it will happen again soon..."

With the continuous influx of refugees, the population of Zhululing has soared to more than 230 people in the past two days, and the upper limit of the population of second-level villages is 300 people. Based on today's refugee influx, even if the military camp recruits 50 soldiers, it is very likely that tomorrow's refugees will

The population of the territory will explode.

Yu Buzhi frowned slightly. He knew how difficult it was to grow the population when the territory was in the village stage. The rat infestation in the two counties of Bajun was tantamount to catastrophe for the lord players in the disaster area, but it was also a once-in-a-lifetime development opportunity for the surrounding territories.

.

If you miss this village, there is no such shop!

No, we must try our best to seize this opportunity and try our best to hoard the population!

In an instant, Yu Buzhi made a decision and asked: "Yuan Zhi, are there carpenters among the refugees?"

Xu Shu knew the situation of the territory very clearly and immediately said: "There is someone."

Yu Buzhi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. With the carpenter, Qin Di can withdraw from the carpentry workshop, and he can establish a subsidiary territory. Once the subsidiary territory is established, we can accept more refugees."

Xu Shu was confused and asked: "Affiliated territory?"

"Yes, Qin Di is a senior carpenter and is qualified."

Yu Buzhi saw that Xu Shu was still confused, and knew that it was because he was new to territorial management, and the experienced Mr. Lin was accepting refugees in the border area, so Xu Shu knew nothing about the setting of dependent territories, so he explained

Said: "The territory can establish subsidiary territories. The newly established subsidiary territories are all level 1 villages. It costs 1,000 gold to establish a subsidiary territory. The village stage can be directly upgraded by investing funds, but the scale of the subsidiary territory must not exceed the size of the main territory.

However, it is not easy to establish a subsidiary territory because high-level talents are required to serve as village chiefs in the subsidiary territory.

As the size of the territory increases, the number of auxiliary territories will also increase accordingly. The first-level village has two auxiliary territory quotas, and the number of auxiliary territories increases by one after upgrading to the second-level village. In other words, we can now establish up to three auxiliary territories. However, there are almost three auxiliary territories in the territory.

There are no high-level talents. After much deliberation, only Qin Di is a high-level carpenter. As for Zhao Lao... The senior is currently not in the territory, and his martial arts level should not be low." Yu Buzhi wiped his sweat secretly. Xu Shu, who had a Renxia background, was very attached to Zhao Feng.

It was out of respect, he almost called old man Zhao just now.

Xu Shu finally figured out what the annexed territory was all about.

"Xiao Di is renovating the arrow tower..."

"I know that the current situation is quite special, so I have to act in a hurry." Yu Buzhi sighed.
