Chapter 929 Settlement

Li Tieniu and Jiang Xiaoxiao also discussed. They had been observing these 400 people these days, and found that these 80 households were really well selected.

Every family is a diligent, loyal and honest family.

In particular, he is proactive in his work and does not hide anything for himself, let alone be lazy.

It was obvious that these people were quite envious of their Lijiacun people, especially the strong men of Lijiacun who saw them training every day.

Those workers who are tired from working can't help but run outside their training ground during their breaks, and they will run and jump according to their training methods, although they don't understand what they are doing.

But it can be seen that these strong men in Lijiacun are different from them. When they attack and train with each other with sticks without spear points, they can see that they are murderous, which is more powerful than the officers and soldiers of the government.

These refugees are not stupid at all. They naturally know that this wall is being built.

Although this village may not look small, the problem is that it is like a small city.

Whether it is bandits or those marauding foreigners, it is very difficult to break through this city wall. It is definitely much safer to live here than the original village, which was completely undefended.

They also want to live a normal life.

Naturally, Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others also hope that these people will stay. After all, this is a family of 400 people.

Although there are inevitably many old and young people inside, the total number of strong men here is more than one hundred. If all these more than one hundred are trained, the strength of the entire Lijia Village will definitely be improved by more than one level.

Even if a large group of bandits came, they were not afraid.

In the past, those who wanted to win over people from Linjiacun just relied on the strong men in Linjiacun.

If it weren't for the fact that the two villages couldn't join forces and guard each other, they would inevitably be in a hurry when encountering attacks from bandits and the like in the future.

After all, there are too few strong men in the village and there are too many people to protect.

But for the 400 people in front of us, it is very clear that this is manpower.

In ancient times, the most lacking thing was people. Many people died due to displacement and war.

The population has dropped significantly, so the most lacking thing is people.

Representatives from eight families approached Jiang Xiaoxiao and Li Tieniu and explained that they wanted to stay in the village.

Li Tieniu looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao and saw that there was really nothing he could do. He was already used to having Mr. Jiang as his backbone and doing whatever he said.

Of course, Mr. Jiang is indeed capable. Mr. Jiang, who can make them earn tens of thousands of taels of silver in one trip, is naturally better than him.

They are scholars who are literate, smart, and skilled in martial arts. Such people are stupid if they don't learn from others or listen to others. Look at how much Mr. Jiang has done for their village.

They are still willing to use their money to build a city wall for the villagers to protect the entire village. On this point, they all have to listen to Mr. Jiang.

Even though Mr. Jiang is a girl, he is stronger than all the boys in their village put together.

Although Li Tieniu was not very smart, he was sure of one thing. As long as Mr. Jiang said anything, he would definitely listen to it.

The eight families knew at a glance that Mr. Jiang was the one who called the shots here.

Jiang Xiaoxiao definitely agrees, but he still has to say ugly things first.

"We all understand how everyone wants to stay, but you can also see that you want to stay. Our Lijia Village is a small village with not much land. You have left such a large population, but the land in the village is actually not enough. Feeding so many people.

If you want to stay, you can only go up the mountain to open up wasteland by yourself. Of course, there are a lot of wastelands near us. If you plan to stay in the future, then everyone can share the blessings and share the hardships like a family.

Naturally, our village has its own way to get rich. From now on, we will build the city wall wider and wider to include all the fields within the city wall. I believe those bandits and those foreigners will never bully us again.

In recent days, you should have noticed that the strong men in our village are capable of fighting. I might as well tell you that the strong men in our village are selling smuggled salt in private. These people have been trained and have seen blood.

Our most powerful encounter was when we encountered 200 bandits. 50 people fought against more than 200 bandits, almost one against four, and still defeated these people. I don't say this to intimidate or frighten you, I just hope you will think it over carefully.

Coming here means you have to accept the fate of starting from scratch. What's more important is that everyone works together as one, and more importantly, obeys orders. "

The eight people nodded. They could say it so clearly, but they were actually being kind to them, and all they asked was to obey orders.

Where can they disobey others?

In the village, you have to obey the orders of the village elders. When you leave the village, you have to obey the orders of the officers and soldiers. Even if you encounter bandits on the road, you are not allowed to obey the bandits' orders.

In this case, as long as you can give them food, enable them to live a good life, and enable the family to survive, no matter who you listen to, you don't want to listen.

"Mr. Jiang, we will listen to you from now on. We will do whatever you tell us to do. We are not afraid. As long as we can have enough to eat, we can do anything in this world."

The leader, Li Dahu, hurriedly replied that when he was most difficult to survive on the road, he really thought about becoming a bandit.

In fact, it was because his parents died in the hands of bandits, otherwise, he would really have become a bandit.

I can't just watch my family starve to death, but now I don't have to be a bandit, I just have to follow orders.

Go!

Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded, this is easy.

Li Tieniu took the people down directly, and then took them to the government to handle the household registration procedures.

After all, so many refugees came to Lijia Village, so they naturally had to help the government handle household registration.

The government officials heard that this was a good thing. If 400 refugees were placed in the city, they might cause trouble. Since they were willing to settle in the surrounding villages, the surrounding villages were also willing to accept these refugees.

That was a happy thing for everyone, so they naturally wouldn't stop them and immediately helped them handle the procedures.

They didn't eat a grain of rice from their own family.

These 80 families didn't even have to move. Whoever's house they lived in at the beginning, they still lived in.

After all, that house had been empty for so long, and now it was their home.

Suddenly they had a home, and they felt at ease.

Everyone couldn't help but feel happy.

Of course, more importantly, Li Tieniu announced that all the able-bodied men of the 80 households that settled here would be selected to join the 18-person training team of Lijia Village.

The team was divided into three teams, each with about 50 people.

Each team had a team leader, who was elected by the able-bodied men in the village and was called a squad leader.

And the autumn harvest in Lijia Village this year was also a bumper harvest.
