Chapter 429: Three Years, the Whole Clan Becomes Warriors!
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Hexia County.
The whole county has been given a new look.
The hardened cement roads are like blood vessels, connecting the entire Hexia County together. Each county has been renovated. A large number of carriages travel on these roads, including caravans, escort agencies, and others. Another side road, full of pedestrians.
Whenever you go to a town or county area, you will encounter checkpoints and charge a small toll.
In terms of today's flow of people, the tolls collected have improved from Tianhe's subsidized maintenance to the current level of self-financing.
Because Chen Nuo once told Chen Deng that if you want to be rich, build roads first.
Therefore, in the past three years, the entire Hexia County has participated in the construction of roads, and has even revitalized many poor counties. The living conditions of the entire Hexia County have been visibly improved.
Especially after Chen Nuo used Denqiao to cultivate high-yield grain and fruit seeds several times, the products were relatively abundant, and the number of unnatural deaths in the entire Hexia County dropped significantly.
On the direct road to Tianhe County.
A completely black carriage came galloping forward. The black horse with scales and strong muscles took the lead. The carriages accompanying it all pulled aside to give way, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The owner of a caravan looked at this scene with some confusion, "Who does this belong to? Why does this car look like this, and that horse, so fast, so powerful. When we go back, we will also have one, how can we pull the goods?" inconvenient?"
The old man next to him quickly pulled him down and said, "Oh, my little ancestor, don't say any more."
"That's a special government vehicle. Only the leaders of the county and towns will drive it when they go to Tianhe. They can't use it themselves at ordinary times."
"?Why?"
The young master frowned.
"Look at that car. It is said to be expensive to build. Its own defense can temporarily withstand the attacks of Muscular Realm warriors. And the horses are exotic beasts cultivated by the Chen family. They can travel six to seven hundred miles a day and can almost penetrate a state. ”
"Once this kind of car is used, it will be a huge waste. Who would dare to use it except for official business? Moreover, the number is not large and it is not sold to the outside world at all. The characteristics are also very obvious, so you can naturally see it at a glance." Old man explained.
The little boss was thoughtful.
"This is your first time to do business. Let's go to Tianhe this time. Take a good look. Today's Tianhe, no, Hexia County to be precise, is very different from the business model outside."
While talking, a checkpoint was reached.
After paying the toll, the road was repaired by the way.
This is also a small market, which mainly sells food, but also has a lot of entertainment.
Many people from nearby villages work in this small market, which greatly subsidizes their families and forms a unique road economy in Hexia County.
…
Pulled by scaled horses, the black carriage quickly arrived at Tianhe County.
At this time, Tianhe County had undergone several expansions, and there were houses and roads everywhere.
If you can look at it from the sky, you will find that Tianhe County is divided into several areas, but no matter which area it is, they are all densely packed and quite dense.
Especially in the factory gathering areas on the outskirts of the city, there are even more people.
The black carriage arrived at the city gate.
At this time, the city wall has long been rebuilt and is more than twenty meters high. The city gate is also extremely tall. All the soldiers stationed here are warriors.
And the one who led the inspection of the city gate was a muscle and bone realm warrior.
And this configuration is available in all four city gates!
The black carriage entered slowly.
Even the official carriage was forced to slow down and walk into a specific passage after entering the city.
And on this passage, there is a series of similar carriages.
soon.
County center, county government office.
It is said to be a county government, but in fact it has already transcended the county level. It is tall, majestic, with many buildings, and even the government officials are warriors.
In this city, the existence of warriors seems to have become somewhat popular.
In the palace-like county government office.
Chen Deng, who was wearing a black robe, sat at the front seat, and the seats on the left and right rows below were already full.
As a personal bodyguard, Zhao Hu stood aside.
"Ahem."
"Now, let's start reporting."
Accompanied by Chen Deng's words.
The person on the left stood up immediately. He was the magistrate of Panyu County. "Back to the magistrate, in the past six months, the population of Panyu County has increased by 30%. Food is the main pillar industry. Now..."
"Back to the governor, our Fengming County is the main hub linking Tianhe County and the grain production area, Panyu County. In the past six months, it has mainly developed commerce. Now..."
"...Our county is specialized in undertaking low-level OEM products..."
"Hometown of Culture..."
"..."
The report meeting on the half-year development of each county began.
At the convention, most of the news was good.
Because of various reasons such as factories, convenient roads, safety, and output, Hexia County has become a well-known Taoyuan Township throughout southern Kyushu.
A large number of people moved south towards Hexia County, and the demographic dividend brought by them was also largely absorbed by the factories in the past three years.
Wealth, talent, and soldiers...are constantly increasing.
But on the contrary, various problems also appeared.
The so-called report meeting is a measure taken by Chen Deng to better control the development of the county.
The purpose is to solve problems.
Listening to the report below, Chen Deng remained silent and calculated silently in his heart.
The factory's production capacity is still increasing, and the demographic dividend is expected to continue to be consumed in the next few years, and may even continue for more than ten years, but we must also prepare for a rainy day.
The medical industry in various places is well developed. Basically, every county has a hospital and a large number of medical clinics and pharmacies. Because of the Chen family tradition, Hexia County highly respects medicine, and a large number of folk medical clinics are being established, which greatly reduces the pressure on Chen's hospital. In addition, hospitals in various places are still relatively simple, and problems such as personnel safety management exist all night, which need to be monitored to avoid medical deaths.
There is basically no problem with food. There is excess food stored every year, even if a war breaks out, it can be supported.
The first batch of students in Chen's schools in various places are about to come out, and officials can be placed.
A series of decrees are spinning in Chen Deng's mind.
For a long time.
Everyone finished speaking and waited quietly.
"The grain industry in Panyu County continues to develop vigorously. Dan Yao, please pay attention to the safety of the granary. I will tell General Wei Shuao to send more troops there."
"In terms of business, the county towns in Hexia County generally do not have their own pillar industries. They rely entirely on the road economy and the population dividend to develop. This is not acceptable. When you go back, develop local industries for me. Even if you can't replace the existing economic model, you must be able to serve as an auxiliary to avoid any accidents."
"There is also the problem of corruption. I say it again. If you don't want others to know, you must not do it. Our salaries, allowances and benefits are not low. Usually, there may be filial piety from the people below."
When he said this, Chen Deng's eyes swept across everyone's faces. Everyone remained calm. After years of experience, everyone was a qualified official.
"But who dares to stretch his hands and dares to make the people below unable to survive and cause a death."
Chen Deng stood up, walked down, and looked at everyone.
"The whole family is in trouble."
"You are not allowed to participate in politics."
"You are not allowed to join the army."
"Listed in the list of corrupt officials."
"Everyone, don't say I didn't warn you."
At this moment, someone finally broke out in a cold sweat.
The problem of corruption is an issue that Chen Deng always emphasizes. There is no way. Chen Nuo once told him that all officials are corrupt and must be punished all the time.
Although this is absolute, it is also conceivable that the entire Chen family views officials.
There is no way. Chen Nuo's will represents the Chen family, and the Chen family represents the direction of the officialdom, and even represents the entire Hexia County.
As for the so-called relatives hiding each other and not punishing doctors, there are no such rules. The talents trained and recruited by the Chen family school are all eyeing their positions.
Chen Nuo once said that there is never a shortage of officials in this world. If you don't want to do it, don't do it. There are plenty of people who can do it.
This sentence remains in the minds of all officials to this day.
Whipping them all the time.
Seeing that everyone was sympathetic, Chen Deng didn't say anything more and returned to the top.
Even though he is speaking very directly and without respect here, these words will not be spread outside, because officials need dignity, otherwise it is difficult to govern their subordinates.
"Okay, this meeting is over, you should be prepared for the Tianhe Weicha at the beginning of next month."
Hearing this, the faces of all officials twitched.
Tianhe Weicha.
In fact, it is similar to the Jingcha in the dynasty.
The policy just implemented this year, an assessment and investigation of all officials every three years, determines the other party's stay and promotion.
The assessment is divided into: upper, middle, lower and upper grades, each divided into three levels, a total of three grades and nine levels.
The meeting is over.
...
Chen Mansion.
In the study.
Chen Nuo is also looking at various records in his hands.
In three years, there is no trace on Chen Nuo's face, and he still looks like a young man in his twenties. The only change is probably his temperament.
There is a sense of mystery.
At first glance, you may even have an inexplicable sense of awe, as if facing this world.
Chen Nuo's eyes moved, and the pages of the book flew around automatically. He finished reading a dozen pages in just a dozen seconds.
"Chen Tie has officially become an intermediate blood weapon master. Now, in addition to Ouyang, the senior blood weapon master, the entire Chen family has three intermediate blood weapon masters and eighteen junior blood weapon masters."
"The alchemists are relatively better. Qingxuan is close to becoming a top-grade alchemist, but unfortunately he is held back by his mental strength.
Chen Xin and Chen Jing are not bad. They have just become top-grade alchemists this year. They also practice Gu Dan. Their strength has reached the peak of tendons and bones. They have various methods. They are good;
In addition to several other senior pharmacists, there are now six top-grade alchemists."
"The rest of the middle-grade alchemists are numerous. Most senior doctors can quickly become middle-grade alchemists after becoming alchemists. Now the family has dozens of middle-grade alchemists, not to mention the lower-grade ones."
"Sure enough, it has been good to vigorously develop medicine all the time. Otherwise, there would not be so many alchemists."
"Well, the family warriors have begun to move towards the tendons and bones."
Chen Nuo's eyes flashed with relief.
Because of the emergence of alchemists, especially after Chen Nuo developed the elixir called Barrier Breaking Pill, many middle-aged tribesmen who were stuck at the peak of the flesh and skin began to break through.
Although there was only a 30% chance, it also created a large number of muscle and bone warriors.
Nowadays, there are countless people in the skin and flesh realm in the Chen family. Except for those who are not old enough, even middle-aged and elderly people in their forties have barely reached the skin and flesh realm. The third-rate skin and flesh realm is also a warrior!
It can be said that the Chen family has initially realized the warriorization of the entire family!
As for the tendon and bone realm, there are about a hundred people in the whole family, but there are very few people at the peak of tendon and bone, with a total of just over ten.
Chen Tang, Chen Ping, Chen Xiao, Chen Hua, Chen Li, Chen Xiang, Chen Si...
Among them, Chen Xiao, Chen Hua, Chen Li, Chen Xiang, the four of them have no potential for breakthrough, and their lives will be like this.
As the leader of the Yuan Claw Department, Chen Si only has some hope of breaking through the internal organs.
Chen Tang has a good chance of breaking through.
As for Guanqiu Jian, Chen Dao, Wei Qing and others, they are younger and have just broken through to the tendon and bone realm.
In general, the appearance of the alchemist has made the entire Chen family appear to have accumulated a lot of strength, and a large number of tendon and bone realms have appeared. Even if they basically will not make any more progress, it is a powerful force that cannot be underestimated.
The only problem is probably the resources.
The pills they need to break through are valuable in themselves. Fortunately, Chen Nuo has a 100% success rate, otherwise the consumption will be even greater. Even so, a large amount of medicinal materials have been consumed, and the price of medicinal materials has even soared in the previous year.
In addition, although Hexia County has developed in the past three years, a considerable part of the wealth earned has actually been used to support the warriors.
It is all thanks to the domesticated beast, the red pig, that the warriors have been supported.
Therefore, in order to relieve the pressure, Chen Nuo has issued an order to cultivate new domesticated beasts, and selected the three beasts, the beach sheep, the golden pheasant, and the crown snake, which are currently in the process of breeding.
Once successful, it will greatly reduce the pressure.
"The development of the South Wilderness is also good, and oil extraction is going smoothly. The people of the Huangquan Department have also found something similar to the rubber tree in the Huangquan Forest. Many industrial products may be developed."
At this time.
Chen Nuo suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at a piece of paper.
"Apply to borrow a general?"
The above mentioned is the decree issued by the Emperor of Zhou a few days ago, and its content is probably to borrow soldiers and generals from the Chen family.
But the expansion of the Zhou Kingdom in the past three years has been relatively smooth. The entire county of Jingzhou has been annexed, and even Yuzhou has been taken nearly half, and the remaining counties are just struggling to survive.
In this case, borrow a general?
Haha.
It's just testing the attitude.
Chen Nuo thought about it, "Let Chen Tang go, fight more battles, maybe it will help him break through the internal organs."
Then, he put this matter behind him.
After all, it's just a small matter.
Afterwards, Chen Nuo put these records into the bookshelf.
These are just records about the development of the family. As for the records of Sima Ming's development, they are not here.
With a wave of his hand.
A book on the top of the bookshelf flew out and began to turn pages automatically.
