Warring States Eagle

() In this chapter, Xiongba hand-beating) pieces of golden-yellow se leaves fell to the ground, forming a golden-yellow ocean on the ground.

The golden ocean is just like the golden rice that is full of mountains this autumn harvest.This year can be regarded as a bumper harvest year. Except for the farmland damaged by the summer war, the harvest in the rest of the territory of 22 people is generally good.According to the current average agricultural tax of six gongs and four farmers in the territory, in addition to leaving [-]% of the income to the various lords, the actual grain moved into the granary of the Luo family was as much as [-] shi.Zheng Liang divided this part of the grain into several batches and stored them in the granaries of Anyue City and Village City.

In addition, the original granary has already stored grain, and now the Luo family already has a grain reserve of 15 shi.

At this time, in Ye Gaoshan's meeting hall, the main ministers were gathering together.

"Your Highness, the relocated wealthy family and the people have completely stabilized." Dongxiang Heiji said, "The [-] shi of grain that was allocated before was almost used up after the people were resettled. If we don't give these I am afraid they will be dissatisfied with the compensation for the people who have not harvested for the time being."

"In addition, due to the strategy of the family, many refugees from the surrounding territories who have failed in the autumn harvest have recently come to settle in the territory of the family, and they also need a lot of food." Dongxiang Heiji was obviously exhausted recently.

"Isn't it the autumn harvest? Fifty thousand shi of grain was allocated from the granary, part of it was used as compensation for these immigrants, and part of it was used as resettlement food for the refugees who defected from the surrounding tycoons, and returned to them as much as possible in the form of corvee. It is winter now, and It's a good time to repair the water conservancy and reclaim the fields." Zheng Liang said.

"Yes, Your Highness." Unexpectedly, Zheng Liang allocated so much food all at once, which not only solved the problem just now, but even won't need to ask the lord for food for a long time.Using the remaining grain to carry out corvee labor is enough to last for a long time.

"Your Highness, I recently purchased another [-] cattle from Iki, but the merchants there said that the wild cattle in the mountains are more difficult to catch now, and even if they are caught, they have to be domesticated for a period of time, so Iki's farm cattle will not be able to provide any more in the short term. It's gone." Kamiya Shaozhan on the side followed closely to report.

"How many cattle are there in the territory now?" Zheng Liang asked.

"520 three heads." It was Togo Heiji who answered.

"More than five hundred heads? It's almost the same. Try to let these cattle give birth to more calves." Zheng Liang said.Relying on buying for a long time is not a long-term solution.Now it’s time to start thinking about self-production.Although it takes at least one or two years for a calf to grow up, it still needs to be caught.

"Yes" Li Hongfei, who was in charge of the management of the cattle, immediately took the order.

"How much has the population of the territory increased during this time?" Zheng Liang asked.

"More than 3000 people, these people came from the surrounding powerful territories, some were refugees, some were citizens who could not live in their original territories, and some were lured by rumors from their own family to other powerful forces. With the addition of these newcomers, our family now has a population of nearly 11." Dongxiang Heiji said.

"It seems that our harassment strategy against the surrounding tyrants is still effective." Zheng Liang said, "Arrange these defectors according to the territorial laws. Continue to implement the strategies of our family against the surrounding tyrants."

"Your Highness, with the joining of these citizens, we have also discovered a large number of other powerful spies. In this month alone, more than [-] people have been arrested in the territory." Onishi Guozhi complained.There are so many spies that they receive the leaders who come to report almost every day, and then go to arrest the spies with the cooperation of the leaders.

"The sudden rise of our family will definitely attract the attention of other tyrants. The situation of sending spies to sneak into our territory to spy on information will definitely exist for a long time. Since they are willing to add slaves for us, we will accept it." Zheng Liang said with a smile.It seems that the slave team in the territory has grown a lot.

"What's going on with the reconstruction of Kishidake City, the relocation and construction of various workshops, and the construction of the territory's marching road?" From the slave team in the territory, Zhengliang thought of these things with the slave army as the main force for construction.

"All the workshops on Mount Yegao have been moved to the vicinity of Kishigake Castle. And these workshops have already started operation." Dongxiang Heiji immediately reported, "The transformation of Kishigake Castle has entered the final stage; in addition, due to the increasing number of slaves, marching The construction progress of the avenue has also accelerated a lot, and it is expected to be completed before the rainy season next year."

"The saltworks and snow salt workshops in Cangshan City have been enlarged. At the same time, the saltworks in Yingdao and Fudao have also been built. These days, coarse salt has been dried." Shenya, who is in charge of commercial workshops and business affairs Shao Zhan also reported.

"Besides, since it is no longer possible to obtain a large amount of cattle, do you think the snow salt is used to buy grain?" Kamiya Shaozhan asked.

"You can figure it out. These two resources are what our family needs most at present. The income from snow salt can be used to purchase these materials." Zheng Liang said.Now that the autumn harvest has just ended, the price of grain is indeed relatively low, and it is indeed suitable for large-scale purchases.

"Your Highness, due to the establishment of a large number of schools in the newly occupied territory, there is already a shortage of paper." Liu Le, who is in charge of Chinese education in the territory, also said.

"Huh?" Zhengliang looked at Xingsuke who was managing supplies.

"Master Liu Le's words are not bad." Xingsuke confirmed, "I'm afraid it won't last until the end of this month."

"Jizong" Zhengliang looked at Jiangchuan Shizong who managed the paper workshop this time.Now the bamboo paper made by the Luo family's paper mill is only for the Luo family's internal use, and it is no longer sold out. There is also a problem of insufficient paper, so Zheng Liang feels strange.

"Your Highness, a batch of paper will be released in the next few days, which should be able to solve the problem of insufficient paper this month. However, with the promotion of the territorial academy, I am afraid that the current scale of the paper workshop will not be able to handle it." Can't tell.

"Then just expand the scale. The food consumed can be directly extracted from the [-] shi just now. This matter is up to you to discuss with Heiji." Zheng Liang said, "But the future paper needs of the territory must be guaranteed."

"Yes" said Togo Heiji and the two who were called.

"Now, let's talk about the situation of our neighbors. Shigetada, how is the situation on Iki Island?" After listening to the report on the territory's recent internal affairs, Masara began to listen to the rest of the information.

"The ri Gao family has reconciled with Bodo, but this has caused distrust among several powerful families. At the same time, ri Gao Zongyi expressed his friendship to His Highness." Mu Zuo Shigetada said.The last time he was ordered by Masara, he went to Iki Island in person.

"Yeah." Zhengliang nodded.

"Your Highness, I just received the information this morning. Xiaohe Xin'an, who was defeated by the Jindai family, encountered a wall when he appealed to the Ouchi family. Now it seems that he is coming to the main family." Kizuo Shigetada continued.

"Hehe, the Ouchi family will definitely not deal with this matter. After all, the family is the nominal lord of Hizen. The Ouchi family must be worried that if they intervene in this matter, it will cause displeasure to the family. This will affect the previous relationship between the two families. " Kakukuma Ishimune said with a smile.It's obviously not worth making trouble with the Luo family for the sake of a small wealthy family of the Xiaohe family.

"Where is Xiaohe Xin'an now?" Zheng Liang asked.It seems that Victory in the Age of Gods and Xiaohe Xin'an are really destined to be enemies.In history, it was the Age of Gods who successfully killed Xiaohe Xin'an.The result is still fighting.The only difference is that because of Zhengliang's appearance, Xiaohe Xin'an regained his life.

"Although the Ouchi family didn't accept them, they let them stay outside Sefukuji Castle temporarily, and provided them with some food. The detectives of the Sefukuji Castle main family heard that they were going to defect to the main family." Mu Zuo Chong Zhong said.

"Your Highness, if the Xiaohe family joins our family and seeks revenge against our family, it may be inappropriate for our family to ignore it. This time, our family's prestige in Hizen will be hit." Dongxiang Heiji said.

"Accept! Since they have come to seek refuge, of course we have to recruit them, and we must also avenge them, and reprimand the Shendai family with great fanfare." Zhengliang said with a smile, "Place Xiaohe's family in Baishi, Xiaocheng County. There is also a territory of more than two hundred shi, which is enough for the Xiaohe family to settle down. Tell Xiaohe Xin'an that the county promises him to serve as a farmer and let him join the family." Although Xiaohe Xin'an's military strength is not very good, he is capable of internal affairs. not bad.Moreover, according to Zhengliang's idea, the surrendered generals are generally arranged to be trained in the cabinet first, and then appointed according to their ability.Through the work of the cabinet, these generals can also understand the new system of the territory more quickly.

"Yes" Mu Zuo Shigetada immediately took the order.

"Not only established the prestige of the family, but also gained the righteousness to deal with the Jindai family in the future, Your Highness is wise." Akabane Shinnosuke praised.

The surrounding retainers also praised him.

"Let's talk about the situation of other tyrants." Zheng Liang asked.

"Since occupying Sefukuji Castle and other fortresses, the Ouchi family has not made any other abnormal actions. In addition, the Shaoer family has not changed. It is just that the main family has lost the trace of Shaoer Dongshang who was exiled to Chikugo. The main family finally The place where the young boy Dongshang was found was Akashi Castle occupied by Otomo's family."

"Continue to investigate and find an opportunity to kill it." Zheng Liang said.This young man Dongshang is really haunted.

The following Onishi Guozhi heard the words and immediately took orders.Such things as assassinations were, of course, done by the Black Hawks.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside.

"What happened?" Zheng Liang asked.

Several cloaked crowd followed a little girl and walked in.At first glance, it was Juji's maid, named Ajiu, who was the younger sister of Hu Natong who was rescued by Zheng Liang.There were also a few little girls who were rescued at that time, and they are all maids in the mansion now.

"My lord, the mistress has given birth to a young master." The maid said anxiously.

"What?" There was an exclamation from the meeting hall.
