Pioneering

Chapter 206 Inducing Consumption and Sending Money

The benevolent Zhong Ming thinks over and over again, thinking about the heroic soldiers under his command, and thinks it's time to think about the marriage of the soldiers with their heads hanging around their waists.

After absorbing the propaganda methods of Blue Star Dragon Kingdom, he is going to tie marriage and house together.

House, if you don’t buy a house in the city, or build a big house in the countryside, how dare you ask for a wife?

Dear soldier, you don't want your wife and children to live with you in a dilapidated "longhouse" where people and animals live together?

Come, come, come, learn more about building materials?Learn about furniture?The construction team understand?
With a house, do you consider buying more land?
Jurisprudentially speaking, Yaxia's land ownership still belongs to Zhong Ming and the feudal nobles, of which [-]% belong to Zhong Ming himself, and [-]% belong to the newly appointed military nobles and the nobles who took refuge here.

The Zoya continent is like this. Commoners are engaged in agriculture, so they can only lease land from nobles to cultivate land, and pay high rents and taxes.

However, Zhong Ming stipulated that civilians could have the permanent right to use the land, and nobles could not deprive civilians of the right to use the land without reason, and if expropriated, high compensation would be required.

It is a small opening in the aristocratic ownership system, imitating the land system of the Dragon Kingdom.

And the military merit field that the soldier's military merit title is rewarded is given the permanent use right from the land owned by Zhong Ming, and enjoys a half-tax discount.This offer lasts for 20 years from the date of receipt.

Lovely soldier, if you have money, do you consider contracting more land to plant?
Although there is no discount, it is still a good place to grow food.

What?Can't plant it?

So, do you want to know about the upcoming tractors and seeders?
With the land and agricultural machinery, do you want to consider the hybrid seed recommended by the king?
Get married and start a business, don't you buy some cloth for your wife to make a wedding dress?No seat?
Not enough money?
Hey, do you want to know about the loan business of the soon-to-be-established Yasha National Bank?
Get a loan early and get rich early!

It's no wonder that Zhong Ming took aim at this group of soldiers, they were about to be the people with the most spending power in Yaxia.

Zhong Ming just wants to stimulate the stagnant commercial market, increase demand to promote production, and thus speed up the process of industrialization.

Besides, the land and agricultural machinery are real means of production, and it is not a loss to buy them.

……

Another month passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhong Ming came to the military camp stationed outside Skeller City, and planned to give rewards to the more than 3 warriors here and the 12 newly joined alliance troops.

Zhong Ming stood on the high platform, looking down at the soldiers below the stage.

A row of 100 soldiers with tin trumpets is calling their names to receive the reward:

"Clay Stone, killed 10 enemies, ranked 8th rank of Jin army meritorious service, reward 20 gold coins, military meritorious field [-] acres!"

"Lack Stone, killed 8 enemies, the third rank of the Jin army meritorious service, the bounty is 4 gold coins, and the military merit field is 10 acres!"

……

It's normal to have heavy surnames. Common people seldom choose surnames carefully. They usually use the most representative things in the village or their own occupations as surnames.

At the front of the queue was a box of opened gold coins, exuding a seductive light.

Every time a hundred soldiers whose names were called came out, Zhong Ming stretched out his hand to help them, and mentally pulled a small amount of gold coins into their hands.

The ceremony of distributing money is indispensable, and this group of people must know who is the person they should be loyal to.

On weekdays, when the military salary is paid every month, Zhong Ming will also show up from time to time.

With the halo bonus of a certain religious belief, coupled with the fact that real gold coins fell into their pockets, the eyes of these brave warriors looking at Zhong Ming became more and more fanatical.

Even the power of faith that Zhong Ming felt from them has increased a lot.

Although the newly joined Alliance Army paid less bounties, seeing that Yasha really paid the full amount of bounty and military salary, a considerable part of them directly transferred their trust to the God of Wealth.

Who is called Zhong Mingren's former vest is the Pope of the Fortune Church, the spokesperson of the gods and humans.

I enjoyed the comfort of a wave of worship and rising faith.

The next day, Zhong Ming flew back to Yaxia to give pensions to the casualties first.

After all, this is the biggest hero unit in this war.

This time the scene was more serious.

Tens of thousands of men, women, children, and family members of the sacrificed warriors were gathered on the outskirts of Yaxia City, and Yaxia reimbursed the round trip and meal expenses.

In a certain corner, an old woman cried while holding a letter she had just received and a bunch of white flowers that represented the end.

The letter told her that her son had died so bravely in battle, and then some information about the pension came along, hitting the old woman's heart with a bang and making her cry.

In another corner, a young woman stood quietly, her eyes fixed on the letter in her hand.

Her husband had died heroically in battle, and her eyes were a little red and swollen, as if she had dried up her tears.

Now she has only one child left, and she feels endless pain and helplessness to raise this child but is unable to support her. Fortunately, the pension information in the letter brought her hope.

On the other side of the hall, a middle-aged woman was collecting envelopes, her eyes filled with endless sadness.

Her husband is also a warrior, and he was possessed by knights and nobles of Andreoya in the process of ascending the city first, and pierced his heart with an arrow.

……

When she got her pension, she could have felt comforted and sheltered, but her face was even more languid, as if she couldn't smile.

"Barcelona Windmill, who is the family member of Barcelona Windmill?"

"I, sir, I am." The young woman came out with the child in her arms.

"Condolences."

This time Zhong Ming did not stand tall on the stage, but instead held a stack of gold coins in his hands, counting them in relief and putting them into a linen bag.

"48 gold and 22 silver, and 120 acres of military merit fields. The knight title will be downgraded to the tenth rank of military merit and will be inherited by your children. Your husband is a warrior."

The young woman took the money bag and the title deed while laughing and crying...

Of course, this kind of show is enough to appease a few, and the next step is to use mental power to distribute them row by row.

Looking at the scene recorded by the photo stone and the envy of the surrounding crowd, Zhong Ming felt that it was worth wasting time.

However, he swept his eyebrows, looked at the greedy people in the crowd, called a group of standing troops, and prepared to let the soldiers escort the soldiers back to the village after the sales session was over.

For these military families, Yaxia will also have fixed holiday condolences and distribution of supplies every year.

We will also concentrate the military achievements of these military families as much as possible, and build military villages to ensure that the same village will not be wiped out.

"Cough cough." Zhong Ming coughed, signaled to the hundreds of "salesmen" led by Lei Wen, and left first.

Lei Wen nodded knowingly, waved his hand, and led his subordinates to chat with the military dependents who had just received their pensions.

"Ma'am, it will not be easy to take care of the child alone in the future." Lei Wen said to the young woman who had just personally met.

"My lord... woo~"

"Ma'am, please be sorry." Lei Wen took out an embroidered handkerchief and handed it to her, "Your Majesty is merciful, your husband's bravery has been rewarded as it should be, hasn't he?"

"Yes sir, it's just me..."

"Madam, you will plant 120 acres of land by yourself in the future. I really envy the land you own. I just don't know how you plan to plant so much land in the future?"

"...I am also very confused about this." People in Zoya World are much stronger than Lanxing, but they are not to the point of an ordinary woman working as a farm machine.

"Resale? Lease? Not allowed, His Majesty stipulates that only military members can use it personally. Hire people to plant it? Spend too much money!"

"Well, why don't I buy more cattle?" The young woman struggled.

"Hey, ma'am, I have some agricultural machinery that will be on the market soon. Your Majesty understands the difficulties of your military family, and the supply is limited. Do you want to consider buying one?"

"Three-year warranty, free training, [-]% off for military members!"

"Women can also rely on these fetishes to easily plant hundreds of acres of land..."

Hundreds of officials were selling new houses, agricultural machinery and land according to the words Lei Wen taught in advance.
