Longevity: Beginning from Becoming a Clan Leader

Outside the window, there was a lot of noise, but inside the room was silent.

Zhu Li was writing and drawing on the paper, with some thoughts on his gloomy face.

After writing for a while, he suddenly felt upset, threw down the pen, walked to the window and looked outside.

I saw men and women carrying swords walking on the street one after another, and they were all full of the atmosphere of Jianghu.

From time to time, they entered inns, gambling houses, and wine shops, and the people who were seriously injured in private fights outside the city were hurriedly carried to the clinic by their companions.

Jianghu people and civilians are originally two parallel lines.

But here, there seems to be some signs of integration.

Let this city show an unusual style.

Zhu Li looked at this scene with admiration and fear on her face. At this time, colorful spiders crawled out from her shoulders and crawled onto her cheeks, making her face colorful and unable to see her emotions.

Suddenly, she closed the window, picked up the brush, and continued to write on the paper.

The wind came in through the cracks in the window, slightly blowing up the paper, revealing the words on it...

Work hard, ambition...

...

Outside the city.

Twelve large arenas with an area of ​​more than 100 square meters were gradually completed.

Stalls were opened one after another around the area, and the poor people did some small businesses to make a living, which also brought in the flow of people, which was somewhat similar to a temple fair. At this moment, the county town and Dulonggang, a straight line between the two points, formed an unusual prosperity.

As time went by.

As the time for the competition got closer and closer, the number of people from the central and southern parts of the country finally decreased.

"Chief, the people from the rivers and lakes who came this time, conservatively estimated, may be on the scale of tens of thousands!"

Chen Xiang said in shock.

"Tens of thousands?"

"Yes, this conference may have attracted all the low-level people in the south and central parts of Hexia County. However, most of them are brute-force people who have practiced a few tricks to beg for food. They are not even warriors. Moreover, there are many refugees from all over the country, which accounts for a large proportion."

"I see, but you are wrong. There are not so few low-level people."

Chen Nuo's eyes flickered.

The entire Hexia County has a total of 32 counties. Excluding the hidden population of the big families, in Chen Nuo's estimation, if the Yi people and other ethnic groups are also included, there may be nearly 1.5 million people. If the hidden population of the big families is included, it may reach 1.8 million!

After all, the central and northern parts are grain-producing counties, and it is normal to have a dense population. Otherwise, King Cheng would not dare to think of changing the world...

"It doesn't matter. Excluding the refugees who have mixed in, there must be several thousand people from the rivers and lakes. If we can find some people in the flesh realm, it will be a good thing. If we can find some people in the bones and muscles realm, it will be a big profit."

"Besides, it doesn't matter if they are brute force. As long as they are young and strong, they are useful. They can go to farm, be a guard, a gang member, a bodyguard, or even join the army. It's a good thing."

Anyway, the three gangs are in my hands, and becoming a gang member is also working for me.

Chen Xiang also nodded in agreement.

"However, we have to keep an eye on the public security. With so many more people, there will definitely be trouble. Tell Wei Shuao that if there is trouble, don't hesitate, don't be afraid of the impact, and suppress it decisively. Don't be afraid of many deaths, I will take care of it."

Chen Nuo said with a serious look.

The population is only 40,000 to 50,000, and with so many restless guys pouring in, it is impossible not to cause some trouble. Otherwise, it would be too much to underestimate the ability of the people in the underworld to cause trouble.

Fortunately, these people are scattered and vagrant, without a system, no one obeys anyone, and there are not many formal warriors, otherwise Chen Nuo would be confused.

At this time, Hong Ye hurried in, with an abacus in his hand and a ledger in the other hand. He didn't look at the abacus, just kept hitting it, very skilled.

Because of the excessive interference in economic matters, this rule has been retained since Liushui County was divided into two.

Hong Ye and the uncle each control a part of the economic power.

"Husband, the slaves are no longer able to work now, and many have died. If the pressure is added, they will exhaust the pond to catch fish. Those houses and food are now a little out of balance and need to be corrected."

Ning Hongye spit out questions like a machine gun.

Chen Nuo was stunned, and then reacted.

Because of the influx of a large number of people, inns and wine shops were no longer enough, so some sharp-eyed merchants rented slaves from Chen Nuo and bought cement.

What for?

Building houses.

Because of the existence of cement, the speed of building houses was very fast. Although they were all simple houses, they were still rented out.

In addition, the gathering of so many people also led to the rising price of grain.

And Chen Nuo was the largest grain storage in Tianhe County, so he made a lot of money just by providing grain.

It can be said that the economy of Tianhe County has been completely revitalized.

However, now the problem has also emerged.

Fortunately, Chen Nuo had a plan in mind.

"In order to improve the slaves' enthusiasm for work, I decided to set a deadline. As long as they work for five years, they will be allowed to own private property, get married, make some reasonable requests, and become servants, or wait for the return of citizens;"

"After working for another five years, they can be freed from the status of slaves and servants and become civilians. They can freely choose to stay or leave. If they stay, I, Chen, will give them ten acres of land and a house."

If you have a house and land, you are not considered a gangster!

To be able to gain a foothold in this world and survive, I don’t know how many people want land but can’t get it...

This condition is not very generous, but it is enough for slaves.

Ning Hongye nodded repeatedly after hearing this. In this way, the slaves who have been lifeless should be more active and improve efficiency.

"Also, let the people try to accept these people and open a homestay..."

Chen Nuo briefly explained the concept of homestay.

"Register and register. If there is a dispute during the period, deal with it strictly."

Time is tight and the task is heavy. Many things are close to a one-size-fits-all approach, but there is no way. This is the best choice at present.

"As for food, the stored food cannot be moved. It is emergency food in reserve. Take my handwritten order to let Fengming County and Panyu County squeeze out some more food."

"Let Chen Yong take people to the other three counties to collect autumn wind. Remember to do it cleanly and don't leave any tails."

Chen Nuo gave solutions to the two major problems in an orderly manner.

...

Soon.

The conference is about to begin.

In Dulonggang.

Soldiers wearing black armor are all over the hill.

And those people in the martial arts world also looked at these soldiers with fear and did not provoke them.

These days, it is not that no one has clashed with these soldiers, but these soldiers are really elite, and the warriors in the health-care realm are no match for them one-on-one.

The warriors in the skin and flesh realm were also subdued by the joint efforts. If the spouse fake warriors joined forces to make trouble, they would even provoke the suppression of the tendons and bones realm.

This also made them understand that in this place, they don’t know whether there are people in the viscera realm, but there are definitely people in the tendons and bones realm.

It made many people feel at ease.

And the number of these people in the martial arts world, as Chen Xiang said, is actually not really tens of thousands.

Moreover, because there is a threshold for registration, people who are not warriors cannot register, so the lowest of the remaining ones are in the health-care realm, and it still looks like there are thousands of people, and it is endless and boundless at a glance.

Accompanied by the sound of gongs, one ring after another was divided into areas, and there was no speech, and the auditions started directly.

This is also Chen Nuo’s request.

The time of the ring cannot be short, but it cannot be too long.

Eliminate the worst idiots first to save time.

Each of the 24 districts is guarded by several Chen's skin and flesh realms, and with the soldiers and three gangs, it can proceed smoothly.

Even so, this elimination match took three days.

It took more than two thousand people to eliminate all the idiots!

The remaining hundreds of people are the real people.

In these three days, Chen Nuo never looked at them again except for the first day.

There is no way, it is really too eye-catching.

The physical fitness of people in the health-care realm is just so-so, so they naturally rely more on skills. They are very good at all kinds of swords, swords, and sticks.

But in Chen Nuo's eyes, it was just like playing house with many flaws.

So, after just one look, Chen Nuo lost interest in watching.

Ning Hongye and the others watched with relish, probably, just to join in the fun?

The people below were also very excited, cheering and cursing from time to time, and some even almost rushed up to fight, probably because they lost money, but the scene was extremely lively.

And on the fourth day, these hundreds of people will also compete for the top 24 positions.

At the same time, from this moment on, these people have also caught Chen Nuo's attention, and Chen Nuo has arranged people to contact them.
