News that Lushuiwan Town was recruiting nearby villagers to build a new town with Shanghe Village as the center quickly spread.
Such a large-scale operation cannot be concealed at all.
After learning about this, Zhou Yuanhua of Hongsha Town, Zhang Tiansheng, the leader of Baishi Town, and Xue Jun of Black Tiger Town all looked surprised.
I simply can’t figure out what Chen Ronghuo is going to do.
Isn't it nonsense to merge more than a dozen villages into a town?
Farmers don’t have that much land, so what do they rely on for food? Does Chen Ronghui pay for it himself?
Just when these people were surprised and puzzled, five or six days passed in the blink of an eye.
In these days, Liang Qian, under Chen Ronghuo's instructions, recruited three to four hundred people to plant new varieties of crops on a large area of land on the northwest shore of Lushuiwan Town.
At the same time, before the seeds are planted, the land is separated from other people and strictly guarded.
"It's just farming, but I actually get 2,000 copper coins every month, which is equivalent to us ordinary warriors.
Those people recruited by Mr. Liang are really lucky."
But regarding this matter, even after several days, other townspeople are still talking about it.
Especially some warriors in the guard team felt a little jealous.
"Although they received a lot of money, they have already signed a contract.
For five years, I could only farm.
And we can’t leave that place, how can we be free?”
There are also warriors who disagree, but these people are only a minority.
Even if Chen Ronghuo didn't listen carefully, he could still think of these discussions.
Everyone has bad qualities, whether they are big or small, obvious or hidden.
At the same time, he can also judge by the changes in the power of faith absorbed by the lord's statue in these days.
It's just that he didn't pay attention to these at first.
Until five days later.
Chen Ronghuo called Hou San to him.
"Hou San, pass the order. In three days, all the warriors of your first legion will begin training.
During the training camp, there will be enough food.
However, the wages of all warriors will be reduced by three-quarters."
Because Huang Tiesheng went to Shanghe Village to be responsible for the construction of the new town, and he could not find a suitable candidate, so now all the guards of Lushuiwan Town have been temporarily merged into the First Army Corps by him, and are under the control of Hou San.
Special training?
Warrior wages reduced by three-quarters?
After hearing Chen Ronghuo's words, Hou San was immediately confused.
In the past few days, the warriors in Lushuiwan Town have become dissatisfied because Liang Qian selected the growers and increased the rewards for them.
Now, Chen Ronghuo actually wants to lower their wages. It would be strange if these people don't blow up.
Of course, Chen Ronghuo is the lord of Lushuiwan Town and is very powerful. With the assistance of him, Huang Lin and others, even if those warriors blow up the situation, they will only discuss in secret at most and will not be able to shake things up.
But it is conceivable that in the next period of time, the purity of the power of faith collected by Chen Ronghuo will definitely drop significantly.
Warriors have stronger souls than ordinary people.
The power of faith exuded is also more than that of ordinary people.
There are only a few hundred warriors in Lushuiwan Town, but the power of faith that these few hundred people can contribute is definitely comparable to that of thousands of people.
Therefore, almost every lord in a town will treat his warriors well.
Like Chen Ronghuo, he really doesn't know what to say.
Of course, he also knew that Chen Ronghuo might have other motives.
But he couldn't figure it out and didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he could only accept the order and retreat.
After Hou San left, Chen Ronghuo thought for a moment and took Zhu Dapeng and Li Heishui for a walk in the town.
This time, after taking a closer look at the situation in the town, he slowly walked to the south bank of Green Water Bay Town.
There is a pier on the south bank of Lushuiwan Town.
A large number of ships dock here.
Looking from a distance, two dark mountains can be seen.
In front of the two high mountains, there is a vast expanse of green water.
The name of Green Water Bay town comes from the winding waterway between the two mountains.
Chen Ronghuo knew that if he walked along the large green water and passed through the winding waterway in front of the mountains, he would reach the boundless sea outside.
"Lord, I heard that the sea is rough.
Our Green Water Bay town is a blessed place. Even if this Green Water Bay is connected to the sea, there will be no disturbance.
Even the rising and falling tide of the sea cannot affect us.
It's just that I've never been to the sea before, so I don't know what the sea is like.
How about we follow the fishermen and go out to sea together sometime?"
Zhu Dapeng stood next to Chen Ronghuo, looking between the two doors in the distance and looking at Chen Ronghuo expectantly.
Chen Ronghuo did not reply, but stood in front of the pier and looked at the two mountains in front of him.
[Water-Restraining Mountain: A pregnant water-restraining bead can make the water gentle and prevent waves.]
[Green Water Mountain: A green water droplet can turn the water flowing through it green and become fresh water.
At the same time, this green water can also turn seawater fish into freshwater fish.
The eyes of fish that have lived inside for a long time will also turn into light green and contain a little aura.】
After a while, he used the identification technique to know the reason for the slow green water here.
"There's no rush to go to sea."
Then he glanced at Zhu Dapeng and then looked into the distance.
On the large green water in the distance, there are wooden fishing boats going back and forth on them.
Because Lushuiwan Town is close to the sea, the fishery is developed.
Most of the townspeople make a living by fishing.
Especially in the past two years, due to the underground insect plague, the fishery in Lushuiwan Town has reached an outbreak period.
That underground insect plague affected several towns in the surrounding area.
Most of the residents of Lushuiwan Town were not affected much because they were close to the sea and could fish.
Even because of the increase in fish prices, I made a lot of money.
Of course, maybe this matter is also a plan of Zhou Yuanhua.
Chen Ronghuo looked into the distance, and then cast his gaze closer.
There were many small wooden boats rowing on the calm water nearby.
These small wooden boats are either casting nets for fishing or feeding fish food, and they appear to be very orderly.
Lushuiwan Town has such a large area of water, so naturally it will not be wasted.
In addition to people who go fishing, the town also breeds a large number of fish in this water area.
Many of these fish come in from the sea...
It's just that this industry is the private property of the lord.
All fish farmers and fishermen work for money.
crackle...
At this time, a nearby fishing boat approached the shore with a large number of various types of fish in its fishing net.
Most of these fish have a common feature, that is, their eyes are a light emerald green.
At the same time, it is precisely for this reason that these fish living in green water are all collectively called "green bead fish".
Chen Ronghuo turned his eyes and landed on a strange fish with a mouth full of sharp teeth in the fishing net.
[Green bead fish: Living in green water for a long time, its eyes have mutated and contain some aura.
Warriors eat its eyes to assist in their cultivation.
In addition, after taking out the eyeballs, put them in the sun every morning, noon, and evening. After seven consecutive days, grind them into powder... After making a paste, apply it on the body, and the effect can be doubled.
