"Lord, regarding the population, I have three suggestions!"

"First, during this war, a large number of people lost their household registration and became refugees. Some of these refugees occupied the mountains as bandits, and some were hiding everywhere. As long as we promise light taxes and allotment of fields, we can attract a large number of refugees to move in."

“We only need to repair the city walls and make them believe that we can protect them, then classify and manage the unoccupied fields and distribute them to them, and then give them the materials and drawings and let them build their own houses. .”

“While building their own homes will inevitably result in clutter, this approach effectively solves the problem of staff shortages.”

"Divide the areas well, and except for the area where they live, other places will be built with the help of the people we send."

"The most important thing is that we have the Yellow Turban Warriors, a unit that has low requirements for transformation. With the gimmick of being able to transform into professionals, there must be a large number of refugees coming. We happened to select some of the clean-blooded soldiers to transform into heavenly soldiers and Yellow Turbans. Lux.”

“The second one is the aristocratic families from Yunlin City and Hailin City!”

"The aristocratic families in New Blue City were basically wiped out by us through violence, but there are still a large number of aristocratic families in Yunlin City and Hailin City."

"Their previous tax model was land tax, which was levied based on the area of ​​cultivated land. This resulted in a large number of aristocratic families hiding their population and allowing farmers and workers to cultivate intensively and produce as much food as possible within the same area, thereby maximizing profits."

"Now we are implementing an output tax, which collects taxes based on the total output. As a result, their original farming model cannot maximize profits, so they have been expanding their planting area recently. Such a large planting area is not the number of agricultural workers they reported to us. Those who can cultivate land can come here.”

"Since they have not reported it, the black households have nothing to do with these aristocratic families. We can send people to raid and count the population, take away all the black households without household registration, and let them regain their freedom and own their own land and houses. I believe this condition is enough Let them go to the new city voluntarily.”

"The third one is for the future of the territory!"

"In this kind of world, every country has a large number of abandoned children. Their population is overflowing, and their economic development cannot keep up with the population growth. But the lords are just the opposite. The rapid expansion has caused the lords to be very short of population. We can use various methods to The channel will bring those abandoned children to the Immortal Realm, and we will raise them up, and they will become a part of the Immortal Realm from now on."

Zhang Lu is also thinking about the feasibility. The most difficult thing here is to get those aristocratic families to spit out what they have secretly hidden. There is no such thing as a poll tax in the Immortal Realm, but if farmers and workers are employed by aristocratic families, then the aristocrats will Agricultural and industrial taxes need to be paid, so even if these nobles are no longer from the Huang Kingdom, they still do not want to report the originally hidden population.

Is there any way to get them to voluntarily hand over the real population list?

Zhang Lu was thinking, but he stopped talking after listening to Wen Zhong's suggestion, leaving the hall silent. Everyone looked at Zhang Lu, the lord of their power.

At this time, he saw Wen Zhong's slightly confident eyes, and he understood immediately.

"Master Wen, since you have made these suggestions, you must have a detailed plan. I will leave this matter to you."

"Yes, veteran, take your orders!"

Zhang Lu looked around. No one else had any objections, and no one even spoke.

He shook his head. Although the big exam brought a lot of talents, most of them were good at managing Newland City. This was the limit. They were equivalent to his ministers. Except for the two summoned characters, the others were There is a big gap between them and the middle structure is missing.

However, this is also a common problem among lords. Those who are a little smart will not join any territory at this time. They all know that the world of lords will definitely be in the future, but choosing the wrong lord will lead to eternal disaster, so they are all waiting and watching.

"If there's nothing wrong, let's leave."

When he saw that no one was talking, he stood up and prepared to leave the city lord's palace. The girl who had been sleeping next to him seemed to have predicted his intentions. The loud discussion just now could not wake her up. She woke up just as Zhang Lu was about to leave. , holding his hand and following him sleepily.

Nina and the others were arranged by Zhang Lu in a courtyard in the southeast corner of Newland City. This courtyard originally belonged to a certain aristocratic family. Because of their affair with Huang Guo, Zhang Lu ransacked their house, and the courtyard became empty. Later, Wen Zhong had the courtyard tidied up, saying that it would be used as Zhang Lu's residence.

Now Nina and a group of elves need a place to live, so they are placed in this courtyard.

Zhang Lu came to the door. The door was tightly closed and locked with a bolt from the inside. To open the door from the outside, the entire door had to be destroyed.

But it didn't bother him. There was a side door with a lock next to it, and he had the key to it.

After turning the key and opening the door, Zhang Lu was shocked by the sight in front of him. There were lush trees everywhere, the originally white walls were covered with vegetation, and bright flowers bloomed on both sides of the marble corridor.

The garden was originally a grass garden, but now it is occupied by low trees, and the flowers can only be squeezed into the corners and shivering.

You could tell at a glance that it was the work of these elves. When he first sent them here, Nina asked him if he could decorate the place, and he agreed without thinking.

But he didn't expect that the changes would be so drastic.

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from the inner hall.

"Who's out there!"

A ray of green light shot out from the house and hit a tree next to Zhang Lu. The tree immediately came to life, dancing its branches with teeth and claws.

But it cannot attack Zhang Lu. It is a tree man summoned by members of Zhang Lu's territory. According to the rules of the territory, he and the elves are its masters. Even Zhang Lu's priority will be higher, so the tree man without a head Don't know what to do.

The elves also came out of the house. When the elf who threw the magic saw that he thought the intruder was Zhang Lu, he quickly canceled the magic and walked quickly to him, bending at a ninety-degree angle to apologize.

"I'm sorry, Lord, I didn't know it was you who came, please forgive me for being reckless!"

This elf's skin was as white as snow, and it was also very big. It was wearing clothes with elf characteristics. When he bent down to apologize, Xuefeng was exposed in front of Zhang Lu, making him twitch the corner of his mouth.

However, Zhang Lu, who has magical power, has very strong control over his body, and nothing embarrassing happened. He just raised his hand to indicate that there was no need to do more, and then said to Nina: "I feel sorry for you to live here for a while."

"It doesn't matter, we are already satisfied!"

Nina walked up and grabbed the other corner of Zhang Lu's clothes. Nina and Nv Wan sandwiched Zhang Lu on the left and right.
