"So I'm wondering if there's a way for them to exchange their labor for food, and use their labor to free up the mobility of our soldiers, and then use the soldier's mobility to get more food......

Listening to Yao Ke's words, everyone nodded unconsciously.

Indeed, the growth of the population is accompanied by material consumption. The common people who have just joined are very low in terms of purchasing power and productivity, and basically can only rely on the support of the city lord's mansion.

If this problem can be solved, then the pressure on these leaders will undoubtedly be greatly reduced, and at the same time, it will be able to absorb more people and make the city grow rapidly.

Tang Ye smiled slightly: "This is a deep problem, and it is also a difficult problem, I think it should be more efficient to take it out and discuss it at the meeting than you want it alone." ”

Yao Ke scratched his head when he heard this, and laughed: "What the lord said is very true. ”

"Okay, if you have any ideas, you can say them for everyone to hear." Tang Ye said, looking at everyone one by one with a thoughtful expression.

But five minutes have passed, and everyone still has no valuable ideas to come up with.

At this moment, Tang Ye suddenly felt that his sleeve was gently tugged.

He turned his head to look at the petite woman sitting in a chair next to him.

Although he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, after getting married, Lu Yi does have a little more mature charm.

Tang Ye smiled dotingly and said, "Madame, what do you have to say?" ”

Lu Yi glanced at her husband happily, and then nodded slightly. Now, even in front of everyone's eyes, she can already say what she wants to say. It's just that sometimes someone needs to take the initiative to call her by name so that she doesn't feel so offended.

His wife's reserve is also a lovely expression in Tang Ye's eyes.

"That...... In fact, the needs of ordinary people are very simple. Especially in this kind of troubled times,......" Lu Yi opened his mouth and cleared everyone's thoughts, "There can be only one kind of people's needs, and that is to have enough to eat." ”

"The so-called food, clothing, housing and transportation. In addition to the less important 'line', in terms of 'housing', there are many empty houses in our city, as long as they are managed and registered in place, this is not a problem. ”

"Clothes...... In fact, it is not difficult, whether it is the clothes left by soldiers who died in battle or starved to death, they can be reused. ”

"The only thing that can't be reused is the so-called 'food'. But now that we have two cities, and there is a lot of land in the city that can be planted, why don't we plant some crops that are easier to produce this season? ”

After listening to Lu Yi's quite complete speech, Yao Ke on the side also nodded appreciatively: "The master's mother said it comprehensively, but I have also thought about what you said......

It is worthy of being a third-level domestic powerhouse...... Tang Ye secretly praised in his heart.

"It's just that I don't know what crops are suitable for planting and producing efficiently in such a cold season." Yao Ke continued to drag out the confusion in his heart.

At this time, Lu Yi showed a rare confident smile: "It is true that there are few crops suitable for winter planting and high yield, but if the environment is not suitable, why don't we change the environment?" ”

Hearing this, Yao Ke seemed to have been touched by a certain nerve, and there was a sudden flash of light in his eyes.
