In Wang Hou's opinion, the Central Plains, the most center of Chinese civilization, is really poor now. Indeed, the terrain is flat and endless, but there are fields except fields! For example, iron ore, coal mine, and kaolin mine are still imported from Xudu hundreds of miles away.

Fortunately, in this war, Wang Hou repaired this strategic highway with the benefit of having 100,000 laborers on hand and not having to pay money, and now he is cheaper.

In the past, Xu Du threw away the slag used for iron smelting, but now, Wang Hou has to copy hundreds of coins per stone. Although he feels so sad, Wang Hou still has to give a part of the order of 700,000 yuan to cement workshops run by several families in Yingchuan, and recruit a group of departments to specialize in managing coal and iron ore on Funiu Mountain. Now, he specializes in smelting and mining on the mountain to more than 2,000.

Not to mention, the way to raise funds is good. Originally, Wang Hou thought that all the supplies for the autumn plowing winter wheat were found in Xudu. However, the Guangling Chen family, Taishan Zang family and other families transported him 3,000 cattle and more than 20,000 sets of agricultural tools from the Yellow River. The more unexpected surprise was that the Gao family from the Jizhou family actually brought him more than 10,000 stones of wheat seeds from winter wheat.

The Gao family is a strange family in Jizhou, among which the contemporary clan leader Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's son-in-law! But Gao Lan, who was also from the Gao family in Jizhou, surrendered to Cao Cao. Now Gao Ping, the big merchant in Puyang, is actively investing in Wang Hou's Dongjun Agricultural Reclamation Company. The Gao family is no longer completely optimistic about Yuan Shao and has started to place bets on both sides.

Two million chunks of funds and materials gathered in Zhongmu on August 11 alone. At the same time, Wang Hou was also doing his best to mobilize the human resources.

It tastes like a staff meeting in later generations. In front of the small military camp in Zhongmu County, a white cloth banner was stretched largely on two trees, with the thickest brush on it, and several big words were rewritten: Production! Labor! Welcome a better tomorrow! Regardless of whether the prisoners who are mostly illiterate below can understand it.

Below are more than 4,000 prisoners of Yuan Shao's army.

After sending all the Yuan army officers away, they will look for those who are pro-Cao among the prisoners, or at least cultivate them in a neutral manner, distribute food and labor tasks to them. After the completion of the month and a half, the new class of Cao army captured the Cao army has begun to take shape! Now, it is time for them to come in handy!

In order to show kindness, Wang Hou was not wearing armor today, and he was wearing plain clothes and long robe. He really had to train. In the past, when he went on stage to face a dozen people's speeches, he was nervous. Now he had more than 5,000 numbers below, but he didn't care.

He walked up to the front without any intention of swaying his sleeves, and adjusted his three giant horns, like a large size. As a group of prisoners looked at the small bench curiously, he cleared his throat heavily.

"Listen, brothers below! In three days, you will be assigned to Dongjun south of the Yellow River, enter the farm in batches, and work!"

As soon as these words were said, the entire captive crowd couldn't help but stir up. Some showed excitement and seemed to have seized the opportunity to escape, while others hung their heads in frustration. It was a hard work to go down the field, and they didn't have the courage to escape. It was really a variety of life.

But regardless of what happened, Wang Hou continued to speak quickly and chatted with them in plain words.

"We are not a family either! So I, Wang Hou, don't tell you about the condom of loyalty, integrity and righteousness. I want you to stay in Dongjun and work hard for me. All I can do is land. One person has twenty acres of Yongye land and eighty acres of vocational land. Yongye land is for you to plant, and you are for me to plant the workplace! What nonsense do you have to say!"

Everything has to be found. Seeing that the guy lurking in the captive group had already raised his hand. Wang Hou deliberately raised his chin with an impatient look. He felt a little flattered. The man stood up quickly and was a little stuttering and was struggling to recite the lines.

"The King Envoy, we..., we are not mules! One hundred acres of land! We are not going to exhaust us to death!"

"Extensive farming, Niu Guan's family has been released. You just need to open the ridges and sow the seeds in, and you don't have to plant them all. In the early summer of the next year, you will be able to cut down the wheat you harvest. You can even hire people when you harvest them! If you can't do this, you will be worse than animals!"

In fact, farming is so simple, but listening to Wang Hou's explanation, he couldn't help but laugh. The prisoners burst into laughter, and the nurse who raised his hand to ask questions also sat back with a red face.

"Of course, I know that your hometown is in Hebei, and twenty acres of Yongye Field may not be able to hold your heart, so I will add a few more chips here! First of all, there was a rebellion in your hometown in Hebei, Jizhou, and Mr. Yuan Shao is still fighting. If you go back at this time, you will only be recruited into the army! In the spring of the next year, you will still not be able to go back to work in your own fields!"

"And I can't let you go. All the boats and boats hundreds of miles of the Yellow River were collected in a pile. Moreover, on the north bank of the Yellow River, General Zhang Liao's cavalry received an order to kill without mercy! Once you escape north, kill them on the spot!"

"The third point is hope! It is not for you to work endlessly, for three years! Three years later, if you want to leave, I will leave as you want, and all the 20 acres of Yongye land you will get all the food you have harvested within three years will belong to you! You can bring the food, you can bring the money you sold the food, and bring any wealth you have created! I, Wang Hou, once again swear in the name of my ancestors that if you do not let you go free in three years, I will not be allowed to enter the ancestral grave after death! I will never be reborn!"

"Are you now risking being killed and fleeing back to join the army and fight? Or are you still suffering from the past three years and returning home in glory. You can think about which one is suitable!"

Wang Houfa's vow is extremely vicious in contemporary times! Looking at his serious face and his solemn appearance, the group of prisoners below was buzzing and they started to discuss it.

To be honest, it is really hard to cultivate one hundred acres of land by one person, even if there are cattle and extensive farming, and they really use people as livestock. However, the 20 acres of Yongye land, which is exempt from tax for three years, is really a temptation. Even some small landlords may be assigned to their own names, but there are no twenty acres of land.

Moreover, Wang Hou made a promise that he would let them be free for three years! With a hope, people will have hope for struggle!

It’s better than drowning in the Yellow River or escaping and being slashed by a cavalry!

It was the child care that took effect again. Among the crowd, a yellow-faced man was the first to stand up and shouted loudly.

"Okay, Wang Envoy, my Xin County Zhang Yong believes in you, I will work for these three years!"

"My Zheng County Li Lei also believes in you, and I have worked for these three years!"

"And my Huaxiang Han Meimei also believes in you!"

"And I..."

The fortress was always broken from the inside. With the "help" of the leader, more people made up their minds, and shouts became louder and louder. Looking at the boiling scene below, Wang Hou's smile became stronger and stronger, but in his eyes, there was a sense of pity and a sense of self-deprecation, and he nodded slightly.

He was so experiencing the corporate culture and the psychological aspects of the company's development prospects. Now he has experienced it. And he fooled 80,000 yuan in labor without giving a penny of wages. He is even more ill-hearted than those bosses who are ill-hearted!

But thinking in my heart, Wang Hou suddenly stood up again, raised his fists high, and shouted.
Chapter completed!
