"It's true that we can't, but my teacher can!" Aslan said very seriously.
The two of them suddenly showed a bitter look on their faces. This was the rhythm of working for others.
Aslan continued: "I mine 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 of them still looked confused, and Aslan could only say helplessly: "It is impossible for the royal family to completely control the salt and iron, because that will only cause dissatisfaction among the nobles of the entire kingdom, because the benefits contained in it are too huge.
Already."
Wilson and Essien looked at Aslan with shock on their faces.
It turns out that there are still such secrets between the nobility and the royal family.
No wonder the royal family has always been so wary of the great lords in various regions.
"So the first thing now is to build villages and towns. As for the salt mine, we must postpone it first." Aslan said very decisively.
"Although there are barren mountains and ridges, it doesn't mean that there is no use there." Aslan said enthusiastically.
"There is a plant called sea buckthorn in Le Mans Mountain. This plant can grow sea buckthorn fruit, which has a sour taste but is very rich in vitamin C. It can be grown on a large scale."
"Not only that, but also on the top of the Le Mans mountain, you can also plant the most precious white merlot white flowers, which can lower the production price of our merlot white medicine in the future."
After what Aslan said, Essien and Wilson 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 cannot compare to Wood Fortress." Essien said with a headache.
"This is simple, just as good as Changfeng Town." Aslan said with confidence.
Wilson and Essien shook their heads in unison. They wanted to say that the lord was a prodigal son.
How much is one-tenth of the land? Take Changfeng Town as an example. There are now about 5,000 acres of cultivated land, and more than 500 acres have been distributed to the people. In addition, several hundred acres have been given away today, which is enough.
The two old men in Melo Town were so distressed that they couldn't sleep.
"Two thousand soldiers will be sent in the early stage, mainly to build the houses and defense system. The development of agriculture can be postponed. After these facilities are established and there is a place to stay, agriculture can be developed. The environment of Merlin Fortress and Stone Fortress is mine.
I have heard that poplar cassava is very suitable for growing poplar cassava, which is a very high-yielding grain. This is the technology and method of poplar cassava cultivation that has been integrated by asking people in these two areas in the past few days." Aslan finished speaking, starting from
He took out a document from the drawer and threw it in front of the two of them.
When Wilson picked it up and looked at it, he found that many places on it had been modified by graffiti, which showed that its owner had studied and examined it many times.
"I understand. I will go back and sort out this plan right away. At the same time, based on your situation above, I will explore the surrounding area to see how much area is suitable for poplar cassava planting."
"The population transferred in this way is not enough to consume the existing excess population. How about transferring to Changfeng Town?" Essien asked tentatively.
Because he has set his sights on Changfeng Town, which is really suitable for growing fruit trees. How big is the Changfeng Plain, and how much land can be developed once it is fully developed.
One hundred thousand acres? Or one million acres?
"No! The alien forces in the Changfeng Plain are very powerful. We have just finished a big battle. We need to have a good rest to consume the benefits gained. The people also need to rest. It is not appropriate to stimulate the aliens in the Changfeng Plain. It is still the same as before.
Hundreds of people are relocated every month.”
"Stone Fortress and Mayang Fortress each send 500 city defense troops to garrison. The Merlot infantry will still be stationed at Wood Fortress. The Merlot crossbowmen and heavy-armed guards will be responsible for the garrison in Merlot Town!"
Aslan started to say while looking at the map, and kept rubbing his head. The territory was getting bigger and bigger, but the troops on hand were still too few.
Several fortresses must be garrisoned. Once Stone Fortress and Merlin Fortress are established, they will successfully block the entrance of other regions into the Melo region, so troops must be stationed.
The real reason why only 500 men were sent was that there were no troops to send.
"Then let's recruit another three thousand soldiers and one thousand construction corps!" Aslan said very decisively.
"Then there are still more than 20,000 people?" Essien said with his scalp numb, and he had a bad feeling.
Aslan spread his hands very bachelorly.
"I have no choice about the rest. The population has suddenly increased so much..."
Suddenly, Aslan remembered the method of dealing with large-scale war refugees in his previous life.
"Build large-scale farms in these places. All the farms will be owned by the lord. Working on the farm will include food and accommodation, and you will be able to get the same wages as tenants. We should be able to feed a large number of people."
Wilson and Essien couldn't help but their eyes lit up and they praised him repeatedly.
"Lord Lord Shengming!"
Aslan nodded very proudly.
"Then the farm is troublesome for you two. As for the managers, I suggest that the disabled and retired veterans should take charge. The farm areas should be divided into responsibilities, and the farm should be completely closed for the first half of the year. This will allow the people on the farm to integrate into the United States as soon as possible.
The environment in Luo Town can also screen out spies who have been planted by interested parties."
Wilson and Essien quickly wrote it down.
To solve the population problem, there was a knock on the door.
Aslan rubbed his temples, and Essien and Wilson quickly retreated.
The people who came in were Arthur, Gawain and other senior officers. They found their seats and sat down.
"Without further ado, the report is a report! The proposal is a proposal."
Compared with the two old antiques, Aslan looked much more casual in front of these trusted officers. He lay on the boss's chair and said with a tired face.
"Due to this expansion, our army has 985 Merlot infantry, 1,005 Merlot crossbowmen, 200 heavy armored guards, and 2,056 city defense troops.
This also includes the 500 city defense troops stationed in Changfeng Town."
Arthur stood up and said.
Aslan nodded and looked at Gut, the commander of the recruit training camp.
"How many slave soldiers are willing to be converted into soldiers?"
"According to the physical standards listed by the lord at the beginning, there are only more than 7,000 soldiers who can pass the slave soldiers. After excluding some older and younger soldiers, there are still about 4,000 soldiers in the training camp now. Because of the slave soldiers
, he quickly adapted to the life of a recruit and trained very hard. After three months, he can join the various units." Gut explained seriously.
Aslan nodded with satisfaction and solved the army manpower problem at once. As for Essien's recruitment, it can be slowed down. Anyway, there are planned farms and food on hand. Even if the population doubles again, it will be completely
