Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 444: There is no solution if you really give benefits

Judging from the performance of these farmers, it is obvious that the treatment provided by the Moroboshi family is seriously excessive, but this is precisely where their cleverness lies.

These farmers risked their lives to work, and in exchange for 50 kilograms of coarse grains, they could keep their families alive through the cold winter. At the same time, the samurai of the Moroboshi family would conduct regular inspections, and anyone who dared to steal the food would be killed. Only in this way could the food remain in the farmers' homes. Otherwise, according to past practice, not only would the 50 kilograms of food be stolen by the samurai masters, but even the family's stored food would be lost.

In fact, this is very normal. You took the food from the Moroboshi family, ate the food from the Moroboshi family, and did the work of the Moroboshi family. If you say it has nothing to do with the Moroboshi family, will the Takeda family believe it?

In fact, from the moment they took the food, these farmers and their families had been branded with the Moroboshi family's mark, so it was normal for them to be targeted, and therefore they had to rely on the Moroboshi family to continue to survive, and this was exactly the purpose of the Moroboshi family, but no farmer had realized this yet.

In the eyes of those farmers, when they go out to work, there is one less person to feed at home, and they still have 50 kilograms of grain. If it is not stolen, the elderly in the family will not have to go up the mountain to die, and the young children can safely spend the winter and grow up slowly. This is happiness.

Thinking that his family could safely survive the cold winter and still have the strength to work in the spring, the farmer's heart unconsciously began to lean towards the Moroboshi family. Even if the other side was an invader, what did the invaders have to do with them, poor people who couldn't even afford to eat? That was a problem that the samurai and the landlords needed to consider. What they had to consider was how to survive, survive the cold winter, live to the spring, and live to the harvest. This was their life.

This is just 3,000 people. 3,000 and 3,000 more, with each farmer having a family behind him, the entire area will be transformed within half a year.

At that time, it would not be the Moroboshi family fighting on the Takeda family's territory, but the Takeda family being trapped in the Moroboshi family's territory.

Most people cannot learn this method. If the Moroboshi family did not rely on firearms to fight ten enemies at a time in a defensive state and had terrifying food production, they would not be able to achieve this operation at all.

The Takeda family knew nothing about this until they discovered the actions of the Moroboshi family and the farmers working there.

Three thousand farmers began to work in sections according to the project arrangement. A bowl of thick porridge in the morning made them feel at ease, because according to the samurai master of the Moroboshi family, they could enjoy three meals of thick porridge a day while working here. If they did a good job, they could take ten kilograms of food home at the end of the month. If they did not perform well, they would be driven away.

If before it was half bribery and half coercion, now he would not leave even if he was beaten, so he not only worked hard, but also very seriously.

Yan Xu nodded after seeing this scene. In fact, using the system farmers would be faster and more effective, it would just cost some gold. But what was the difference between this and him interfering with cheats? At the same time, it would not achieve the goal of winning people's hearts and transforming the local area.

Yan Xu was very satisfied that such an effect could be achieved by only consuming some food. Moreover, for him who wanted to unify the island country, these investments would not be wasted or aid the enemy, because no matter who these lands and populations belonged to now, they would belong to him in the future.

Faced with the Moroboshi family who had found their own rhythm and was advancing step by step, Takeda Shingen, who had thought they would reap the fruits of victory, fell silent.

Picking up the captured striker rifle, Takeda Shingen's hands couldn't help but tremble.

When he captured the first striker rifle, Takeda Shingen asked the craftsmen in the city to look at it. The rifle could be made, but the thing called a percussion cap could not be made. As for mass production.
"It takes three to five months to make a knife, and one must be a skilled craftsman." Takeda Shingen said in a low voice, and then couldn't help but sigh. He still didn't understand how the Moroboshi family did it?
"Come here, bring us all the information about the Moroboshi family during this period." Takeda Shingen put down his gun and said loudly.

Takeda Shingen attached great importance to intelligence. For this purpose, he not only established a large ninja organization, but also hired many foreign ninjas. In addition, this was the territory of the Takeda family, so it was very easy to collect intelligence. After all, even if those people didn't dare to attack the Moroboshi family, it was still possible to leak some information.

Because there was too much information, the information brought to Takeda Shingen was carefully selected, and this time he asked someone to bring all the information because he had a bad feeling about the strange behavior of the Moroboshi family. Small pieces of paper specially used for ninjas were brought in baskets, and Takeda Shingen patiently flipped through them one by one, occasionally taking notes of some content.

Before they knew it, it was dark. Now was not the time to save money. The fine white candles from the Moroboshi family were lit and inserted into the candlesticks. The copper cover reflected as much light as possible so that Takeda Shingen could continue working.

At dawn that day, Takeda Shingen walked back and forth in the corridor with the excerpts, muttering to himself.

The worries and efforts during this period, coupled with the fatigue from a sleepless night, made Takeda Shingen, who was in his prime, look a little older, but this did not affect his thinking. He finally grasped the point that confused him about the Moroboshi family.

"It's not just about winning people's hearts, it's about imprinting the rules of the Moroboshi family on the land of the Takeda family." Takeda Shingen put his hands behind his back, his wandering steps became more and more hurried, and the anger in his heart was about to burst out, because the Moroboshi family was digging up the roots of the Takeda family.

Defeat in war is not terrible. Takeda Shingen has failed before, and his territory has been occupied more than once or twice, but he was able to win it back every time.

But this time, Takeda Shingen lost his confidence.

The Zhuxing family's methods were not actually that clever, but it was these unclever methods that left him helpless, because the other party was really giving him benefits, which was the most fatal.

It has always been the masters who collect taxes from the poor. If they collect less in years of disaster, they have to kneel down and kowtow to thank the masters for their mercy. When will it be the masters' turn to give benefits to the poor? Is it because the masters' knives are not sharp anymore, or is it because the masters are afraid to kill people anymore?

The problem is that the Moroboshi family really gave it, and it was a lot. Even if Takeda Shingen wanted to follow suit, he couldn't afford it.

The Takeda family is not without money or food. After so many years of accumulation, their family wealth is not small.

The problem is that he has an army to support and samurai to pay salaries, not to mention the forging of weapons and the purchase of supplies. There are so many places that need money and food, so how can he waste it on those poor guys? Even if the money and food are collected from them, one thing is for sure, without the samurai masters, without him, Takeda Shingen, who will protect them?

So not only would he not agree to such a thing, but his retainers and samurai would also not agree to it, because it would be no different from taking their money and giving it to poor people.

But if we don’t do this, what else can we do?
Takeda Shingen was in a headache and consulted with his close retainers, but they could not find any good solution. They knew that neither publicity nor promises could win people's hearts as much as real food.

This company talks a lot of nonsense, saying that everyone is a part of the company, and when the company grows big and goes public, everyone will be a shareholder and have a share of the money.

The other company doesn't have so much nonsense. It just offers a 30% salary increase, five insurances and one fund, and two days off a week. You are a working beast, so choose that one.

There is no need to think about it at all. If you make the wrong choice, you will try every means to change jobs.
