Chapter 356 Lin’s Five Counties

"All the people who can move here in Pingnan Guard have already moved. The next step is to move to other guards and even other counties." Lin Changye said.

"Yes, in addition to Pingnan Guard, there are four acropolis in Anning County. We plan to relocate 30,000 people to each acropolis, which means more than 100,000 people will be managed. I'm afraid it's not enough. It would be best to move to several surrounding areas.

Each county will be moved to another county." Lin Shizhen said.

"We naturally don't have too many people to govern. With our current territory, it would be no problem for the entire Longnan Province to move here." Lin Shigu said:

"The problem is such a large-scale relocation of people, and the garrison offices in various places may not agree to it."

"Everyone in Anning County is easy to talk to. Just send a few deacons there. I believe that the city lords of the surrounding acropolis will give our Lin family a little favor." Lin Qingshan said:

"Deacon Qinglong, you go to Zhang Nanwei, Deacon Qingjue, you go to Pingliwei..."

Lin Qingshan quickly made arrangements and assigned several acropolis around Anning County to several young deacons.

"Yes, patriarch!" Several people said in unison, cupping their hands.

"This time we are asking for help from others, so we must pay attention to our attitude. As long as those city lords are willing to cooperate with the Lin family to relocate their people, we can also provide them with certain benefits. Don't be stingy." Lin Qingshan reminded.

"I understand, clan leader." Several people nodded and replied.

"Well, we usually have good relations with these city guards, so this trip should not be a big problem.

On the other hand, in Lushui County and Yilong County surrounding Anning County, although the Lin family has contacts with these garrison offices, it would be difficult for them to cooperate with the relocation of people," Lin Qingshan said.

Although Lin's name is famous, Lin Qingshan is not so arrogant that others will salute when they see Lin's sign.

No matter how famous you are, no matter how loud your signboard is, if you don't have any beneficial relationship with others, who will really respect you? Just be polite on the surface and say polite words.

"Forget it, the surrounding counties are not in a hurry for now. We will finish the nearby acropolis first," Lin Qingshan said.

Several nearby wards can relocate more than 100,000 people, and if utilized, they can also meet urgent needs.

However, the migration of people will not stop, and the surrounding counties will still have to visit sooner or later, but not now.

"In addition to population, we also need to improve the management of clan areas." Lin Qingshan continued.

In the past, the Lin clan's land was not large, and its management was relatively haphazard. The family did not establish a complete system for the management of the clan's land.

Every time a castle is built in various places, a family deacon is assigned to serve as the castle owner, which is very simple and crude.

For example, in the Xidong Fort in the northern area, the owner of the fort is Lin Changjun, the family deacon.

As the tribe expands, it will definitely not work if it continues like this.

The chaotic governance system is not conducive to the further development of the clan area.

"In the past, we did not clearly divide the tribal areas, but it is different now." Lin Qingshan said:

"We want to divide the clan territory into five major areas: east, west, south, north, and middle. Each area will build a main city, which is equivalent to a county town.

Therefore, I plan to introduce the existing governance system of the Wei Empire into the family, divide the clan territory into five counties, set up the position of county guard as the highest person in charge of each county, and arrange the position of county guard to be held by family elders."

"The arrangements for the personnel of the fort masters in each region remain unchanged. From now on, they will be directly renamed the city masters and will be the highest responsible person for each acropolis."

Establish a complete clan and land governance system that coexists with the original family sequence system.

In order to avoid the hidden dangers of conflicts or ideological differentiation between the two systems, Lin Qingshan followed the principle of family leadership and adopted cross-appointment measures to form a clear correspondence between the family sequence and the tribal governance system.

The county guard must be the family elder first, and the acropolis city lord must be the family deacon first.

All power is given to the family first, and the patriarch is always the highest status being.

"I have no objection. I wonder if the clan leader has any more specific ideas about the division of these five counties and the appointment of county guards?" Lin Changye said.

"This is what our clan meeting will discuss today. Regarding the specific boundaries, naming, and arrangements for the governors of the five counties, I hope you will come up with suggestions and brainstorm..." Lin Qingshan said.

After everyone heard what was said, they thought for a moment and then rushed to speak.

"Linghu City is the county seat of the northern area. Otherwise, this area should be called Linghu County."

"Linghu County is bounded by Wolong Town in the north, Xidong Fort in the east, and Jindiao Cliff in the south..."

Soon, everyone discussed and came up with a draft.

The northern area was named Linghu County, with Linghu City as the main city, and the family's elder Lin Changye also served as the county governor.

Moreover, the Lin family's positioning of Linghu City is quite special. It is not the center of the clan, but it is the center of gravity of the Lin family.

Most of the Lin family's internal affairs are placed in Linghu City, so it is most appropriate for Lin Changye to serve as the magistrate of Linghu County.

In addition, Linghu County has been relatively well developed, and the county governor does not need to do much, which does not affect Lin Changye's ability to take care of the family's internal affairs.

The eastern area will be named Heifeng County, and the main city will be named Heifeng City. It will be built in the Heifeng Ridge area, adjacent to the third-level spiritual vein of Heifeng Ridge. The county guard will be Lin Qingxue.

Black Wind Ridge is the place where Lin planted spiritual willows and cultivated blue-scaled unicorns. Both of these are somewhat related to Lin Qingxue, so Lin Qingshan asked her to serve as the county guard.

The western area is named Lion County, and the main city is named Lion City. It is adjacent to the third-level spiritual vein here. The post of county guard is held by Lin Shigu.

Xiongshi County has many spiritual veins and its terrain is an extremely rare plain, which is very suitable for developing spiritual fields and becoming the granary of the Lin family.

According to the future development direction of Lion County, Lin Shigu is the most suitable person to hold the post of county guard.

The southern area was named Jiu'an County. This was the southernmost point of the clan's territory, deep into the wilderness, and the situation was complicated. The name of the county embodies the hope of the Lin clan for long-term peace and stability.

The governor of Jiu'an County is You Lin, and the main city is named Jiu'an City. The county city is located on the third-level spiritual vein of this area.

Because the situation is unclear, this third-level spiritual vein is not easy to deal with for the time being. Planting elixirs or something like that may be a waste of effort.

Therefore, Lin Qingshan planned to form a spirit gathering array at this step to concentrate the spiritual energy of the spirit veins, open a training quiet room, and provide it for the clan members to practice.

The governor of Jiu'an County is Lin Nianwen.

There is no other reason. This place is the frontier of security for the Lin clan. If it is left to Lin Nianwen, everyone can rest assured.

Finally, there is the central tribe land, which is the area with the richest spiritual vein resources, and there is even a ground vein.

Linghu City is Lin's special zone and is basically not open to the outside world.

The central area will become the center of Lin's opening to the outside world in the future, gathering treasures from all over the world and heroes from all over the world, so it is named Tianhui County.

Although it is currently positioned as a county, for long-term considerations, Lin plans to build a large-scale main city here to lay the foundation for further improvement of the structure in the future.

The location of the main city is naturally where the fourth-level spiritual vein is located. Lin wants to keep this spiritual vein and the earth vein firmly in his hands.

This is also the reason why a very large main city should be built here.

As for the governor of Tianhui County, Shi Yu serves as it.

The reason, of course, is the earth veins here. Only Shi Yu can develop the earth veins, so naturally he must be the county guard.
