After the autumn harvest, the whole world was filled with busy and happy scenes. However, the hard-working farmers did not rest. They were busy drying the wheat ears, organizing farm tools, and preparing to plant winter wheat or vegetables for the first season.

At this time, the front of Liu Pei's military camp became the busiest place. Because it was time to pay the rent. Liu Pei had people build a huge shed to withstand the scorching sunshine during the day. The smiling farmers all came carrying wheat.

Food was delivered here. Liu Pei's family had a young man, so he arranged for a team of soldiers and several accountants to be responsible for collecting the food.

The process of paying the rent is simple and rough, and the whole process is just a few words repeated over and over again.

"Which village is it from? What's its name? How much rent do you have to pay?"

"My name is Zhao Dagou, from Liujiasan Village. I will pay you six dou of grain."

"Write your name here. If you don't know how to write, just draw a circle. Then go to the camp. There will be servants inside to guide you. Don't wander around, be careful of getting whipped!"

"What's that? Why don't you weigh it?"

"Calling you mother! How long will it take for so many people to do this? Besides, do you still plan on losing the rent?"

"Grandma, if you miss me, I will be struck by lightning and die badly!"

"Then hurry up and get in! There are a bunch of people waiting behind you! After paying the rent, come out for dinner."

More and more food was gathered, and the granary in the general camp was filled to the brim! The villagers who had paid the rent happily ate cakes and drank broth in the shed. They had fulfilled their obligations to the master's family, and now

It was time for them to enjoy their rights. They ate their meals, inquired about other people's harvests, and boasted about their own, creating a harmonious scene.

This year is a year of laying a solid foundation for Liu Pei! This year is not only a bumper harvest of food, but also solves the problem of feeding the soldiers. He also has great gains in other aspects.

First, he resettled thousands of refugees. These people became his most loyal tenants and would become one of his foundations. And this year was also the time for a big harvest in the side business. Liu Pei funded the pig farms and chicken houses they built.

All achieved great results!

After two years of development, the pig boys are becoming more and more

There are more and more chicken and duck seedlings hatched in the hatchery. Sometimes when the duck herders drive the ducks around, the area is so dark that it even blocks the roads in the village. But no one cares. Everyone cares.

He looked at these squawking little creatures with a smile. They will eventually be transformed into food and cloth and enter the homes of the villagers, making their lives more and more prosperous. At present, Liu Pei's logistics has no pressure at all.

. There will even be a certain amount of food reserves.

In terms of private salt, Liu Pei has completely controlled the flow of salt in the three prefectures. In Qing, Deng, and Lai prefectures, if you want to eat salt, you have to look at Liu Pei's face.

In terms of business, Liu Pei has gained a lot. The chemical products he sold from Hyundai not only opened up the market in Shandong, but also entered the Beijing and Nanjing markets with the help of merchants from the United Chamber of Commerce. They were favored by dignitaries.

Nowadays, those goods are in short supply. Orders keep coming in. Liu Pei had to buy a few more goods from Modern Society. The number of orders made Boss Wang of the chemical factory beam with joy.

The carriage house also started operations. Liu Pei transferred two hundred servants to take charge of the escort work. At the same time, they also shouldered important tasks such as gathering information along the way and drawing maps. The boys have completed these tasks very well, especially those who are new to the team.

Flags, they are even more attentive in what they do.

In fact, Liu Pei's biggest gain was the establishment of the United Chamber of Commerce. He tied many big businessmen in Shandong Province to his chariot. Now these people still don't know Liu Pei's plans and ideas. As time goes by,

, they will tie Liu Pei deeper and deeper until they can no longer be separated. They have provided Liu Pei with a steady stream of funds, as well as the management talents that Liu Pei currently lacks most. Now, by Huashufeng

The shopkeepers introduced are managing many things for Liu Pei.

Not to mention the military. Liu Pei can be said to be the most powerful force in Shandong! His servants have become extremely elite through new training, and have also gone through bloody battles to prove their combat effectiveness. Liu Pei

It was thanks to these servants that the salt road in Sanfu Land was built and the foundation for a life was established.

His sailors have taken shape. Liu Pei and him

They went out to sea to practice. Now they are jumping around on the ship like apes! They are united like a whole! As long as they give an order, the boys will immediately take corresponding actions. The ship is extremely flexible under their control.

Liu Pei also equipped them with tiger cannons and fire guns. During the drill, the ship was like a monster, constantly spitting out white smoke and flames, and ejecting countless lead! This would make their enemies very frustrated.

Bar!

As for the workshops, those small workshops have been expanded again. Now the blacksmith shop can produce 20 firecrackers and other weapons every month, as well as a large number of agricultural tools. Although the output of firecrackers still cannot keep up with the consumption of the troops, it is somewhat

It is a supplement. Moreover, the young apprentices are becoming more and more mature, and many apprentices will soon become qualified craftsmen. By then, the production of firecrackers and other weapons will be on the right track. But Liu Pei is still trying

Recruit more blacksmiths.

What's even more gratifying is the gunpowder craftsman. He invented a way to further purify gunpowder, further increasing the power of gunpowder. After Liu Pei confirmed it, he was rewarded with 500 taels of silver on the spot! All the craftsmen were jealous! Everyone was jealous.

I'm thinking about how to improve my skills. Although Liu Pei's trick of selling horse bones is a bit old-fashioned, it is still very effective!

Liu Pei gained the most from the school. Now there are hundreds of children in the school. Some are smart and some are dull. But one thing is common. They are full of respect and love for Liu Pei! They know that,

It was this person who gave them Shunian and allowed their parents to have enough food. So they naturally had a sense of loyalty to Liu Pei! Not to mention that Liu Pei came to give them lectures from time to time, which further strengthened this point.

Liu Pei has no doubt about the future of these children. In a few years, when they grow up, they will become part of Liu Pei's strength. And because they can read and read, they understand the truth better. So they burst out

Their power will far exceed that of their fathers.
Chapter completed!
