After a brief tour, the crowd returned to the chamber. Shanhai Village has just been upgraded to a second-class village, and how to arrange it next must let everyone know in their hearts.

After everyone sat down, Ouyang Shuo went straight to the topic and said: "With the joint efforts of everyone, Shanhai Village has been successfully upgraded to a second-level village, and it is also the sixth territory in China to complete the upgrade. This achievement is the result of the hard work of all the villagers and the result of the good management of all of you here, which is worth celebrating. Therefore, I decided to celebrate with a big bonfire tonight. The preparation of the party is in charge of Yingyu. ”

Cui Yingyu nodded with a smile, "Big brother, don't worry." The little sister will definitely hold this bonfire party lively. Hehe, speaking of which, this is the first time such an event has been held in our territory. When the time comes, you will have to perform a show in person, big brother, to help the fun. ”

As soon as Yingyu finished speaking, Shi Wansui took the lead in coaxing and applauded. Even Zhao Dexian, a man who is usually quite steady, was teasing and coaxing.

Ouyang Shuo smiled bitterly, "Yu'er, you are commanding my army." But yours is a very good idea, and I strongly support it. I see, it's better to be happy alone than to be happy with all. Everyone here should prepare at least one program, so that it will be lively. "Hehe, hey, hey If you don't drag you all into the water, how can you be worthy of the name of the lord's black belly.

Cui Yingyu covered her mouth and chuckled, performing a show, for her, naturally there was no pressure. The other people's faces are a little ugly, and their faces are depressed, which is called lifting a stone and shooting themselves in the foot.

After admiring Shi Wansui's face that suddenly changed from excitement to bitter melon, Ouyang Shuo continued: "Back to the topic. After the territory is upgraded, there are many things that need to be done. Here, I will first make a rough arrangement. If you have any comments or suggestions, you can put them forward later. ”

"First of all, there is the organization of the work of the Construction Division. Although the private school, medical center and other buildings cannot be built for the time being because there are no architectural drawings. However, the task of the Construction Division remains heavy at this stage. It is necessary to build a primary mining farm and a simple arrow tower as soon as possible that do not require architectural drawings. The location of the mining site should be selected and communicated with the Material Reserve Division. Two simple arrow towers should be built, and they will be built on both sides of the village entrance. In addition, the 15 residential courtyards in the second phase should also be built as soon as possible. The most important thing is to cooperate with the Yantian Division to carry out the infrastructure construction of the second phase of the North Dusk Salt Farm. ”

"The North Dusk Salt Farm is the only industry in the territory now, and it is also an important source of funding for the future of the territory. I decided that another 400 acres would be opened up in the second phase, bringing the total scale to 500 acres. This requires a large number of laborers, and the household registration office must actively cooperate. At this stage, the displaced people are given priority to the salt works, and the total number of salt workers must reach 250 in order to maintain the saturation of the salt works. ”

"On the side of the Material Reserve Division, the number of people in quarries and lumberyards remains the same. After the primary mining farm is built, 20 people will be arranged. On the fishermen's side, the number will gradually increase to 30 people. The militia will be expanded to 50 people this time. Establish a formal establishment, with ten people as a fire, and set up a fire chief; The five fires form a team and set up a team. The rest of the labor force will be arranged to the Department of Reclamation. The Department of Reclamation will continue to reclaim farmland, and eventually reach a scale of 2,000 mu. According to the above arrangement, the household registration office should do a good job in the diversion of personnel and the handling of the corresponding household registration certificates. The above is the arrangement of the recent work, if you have any questions, you can raise them now. ”

While digesting the information leaking from Ouyang Shuo's mouth, the chief officials put forward opinions or suggestions on the areas they were responsible for.

Shi Wansui stood up first, "My lord, the last general has something to say." If the militia is expanded to 50 people, five fire commanders will be appointed. How are candidates determined? ”

Ouyang Shuo smiled, "The fire chief personnel are recommended by you and reported to me for approval." Try to give priority to the current veterans, but don't promote them unconditionally just to take care of the emotions of the veterans. Everything is still based on the premise of meritocracy. In addition, Zhang Daniu and Sangouzi, the two squad leaders, can be directly promoted to the position of fire chief. The head of the militia team is naturally up to you, the general. Now that the North Twilight Salt Works is on track, the general can get out of the way and concentrate on the training of the militia. As for the safety guard work of the salt works, Zhang Daniu and Sangouzi each took turns to garrison the militia. ”

Shi Wansui grinned, obviously happy to be able to no longer be stationed in the salt field. However, he is not the kind of reckless man who has courage and no strategy, and from Ouyang Shuo's words, he has already heard a trace of abnormality. He asked directly: "What is the significance of the lord's wanton expansion of the militia this time?" ”

Ouyang Shuo nodded approvingly, "Not bad." This expansion of the militia is aimed at responding to new security challenges. As the province upgrades, the sphere of influence is 2.5 times greater. The new territory needs to be thoroughly swept by the militia team to eliminate potential security hazards. What's more, it is expected that in half a month, there will be a beast riot in the wilderness. At that time, the territory will be attacked by a large number of wild beasts. Therefore, during this time, the general must not only train the militia into shape as soon as possible. After coming down, a detailed battle plan for defending the village against wild beasts will be drawn up and submitted to me for review. ”

Shi Wansui's face was grim, "Yes, I promise to complete the task!" ”

Then, Yingyu stood up, "Big brother, I have a different opinion on the number of fishermen. We now only have four fishing boats, each of which can only carry two people. Shipyards can only build one fishing boat per day. Therefore, it will take at least 11 days for all 30 fishermen to be able to go out to sea. As far as I know, an average fisherman can harvest 50 units of fish in a day. There are so many fish that you can't eat them all. I don't know what the purpose of the eldest brother is to arrange this? ”

Ouyang Shuo understood Yingyu's thoughts, you must know that fish cannot be used as a staple food, and it is not easy to store for a long time, so it cannot replace the role of food. In this regard, he has his own plans.

"What Yuzu said is naturally true. But have you ever thought about how to salt the fish and then dry it? Dried fish is not a living animal, it is easy to store and can be sold through the market. One unit of dried fish in the market is 15 copper, and an average of two units of live fish can be dried into one unit of dried fish. And one unit of salt can marinate 50 units of live fish. After deducting the cost of table salt, a fisherman's harvest in one day can generate a profit of 355 copper for the territory. Before the first batch of salt was produced in the North Dusk Salt Farm, the construction of the territory could be funded by going to sea to fish. As for the fishermen who do not yet have fishing boats, they can be arranged to do the work of salting live fish. ”

Cui Yingyu knew all of Ouyang Shuo's calculations at this time, and couldn't help but admire it greatly, and said sincerely: "Big brother is thoughtful, Yuzu is not far away!" ”

Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, "Yuzu doesn't have to be presumptuous. I've also been worrying about the funds for the construction of the territory recently, and I thought about it for a long time before I came up with such a solution. ”

Of course, this was not a method that Ouyang Shuo came up with temporarily, saying this was just to comfort her. As early as when he chose the Lianzhou Basin to establish a village, he had a comprehensive consideration. As a lord whose territory is located by the sea, if he cannot make full use of the resources of the sea, it is really a waste of such a geographical advantage.

Salting in seawater and salting preserved fish was one of the ways he came up with to accumulate primitive capital in the early stage. To this end, he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money in the case of tight funds in the early stage, to buy the "Seawater Salt Drying Technical Manual" and the three special architectural drawings.

This is the advantage of rebirth, while the representatives of the big powers are still struggling to buy game currency through heavy money, he has developed a well-established industry to provide a steady stream of construction funds for the territory. Such an advantage will become more obvious the more you go to the back.

His current industry is still in its infancy, and the profits generated are limited, but it is full of stamina. Once scaled, the profits generated will naturally multiply several times.

The powerful lords of the previous life have long formed a consensus that if the territory can develop sustainably, it must establish its own industry. After all, it's less than a year before you can buy in-game currency with credits.

Finally, Zhao Dexian stood up and said, "My lord, I have questions. Lord Fang Cai arranged for the Department of Reclamation to reclaim another 1,500 acres of farmland, which was naturally no problem. The question is, for these 2,000 acres of farmland, what crops should be planted, can adults make arrangements? ”

Ouyang Shuo decided to test him, and asked rhetorically: "Director Zhao, let me ask you, with the climatic conditions of the Lianzhou Basin, what crops do you think is more suitable for planting?" ”

Zhao Dexian is a farmer and has been working with farmland all his life. The timing of sowing of various crops is still very clear. "At this time, winter has not yet passed, and spring has not yet arrived, so it is not suitable for planting any crops. ”

Ouyang Shuo smiled mysteriously and said, "You are right. However, with such climatic conditions as the Lianzhou Basin, there is one crop that can be grown in winter, and that is the potato. Although the best time to plant potatoes in November has been missed, due to the sea monsoon, there are still conditions for planting potatoes. If you start planting now, you can harvest it in April and May at the latest, completely solving the problem of food shortage in the territory. ”

Zhao Dexian was slightly stunned, and said ashamedly: "My subordinates are ashamed, I didn't expect such a crop." Actually, he can't be blamed entirely for that. After all, Zhaojiagou has always been hidden in a paradise, and potatoes are rarely grown in the village, so he didn't expect it for a while.

Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly, "Therefore, all these two thousand acres of farmland should be planted with potatoes." And do it quickly, try to finish planting before the end of the month. As for the sprouts, I will buy them from the market. ”

After answering Zhao Dexian's question, everyone else said that there was no doubt, and Ouyang Shuo announced the end of the discussion. When the crowd had dispersed, he was ready to go to the primary market to make some purchases.

Ouyang Shuo only had 10 gold coins left in his hand, and 4 gold coins had to be reserved for the militia to transfer jobs, and only 6 gold coins could be used.

He first spent 1 gold coin to purchase enough potato sprouts to plant 3,000 acres. 3,000 mu is the largest planting area of first-class potatoes in the village in Ouyang Shuo's plan.

Then, for another 1 gold coin, 500 units of table salt were purchased. This salt is enough for the early stage, and after that, the North Dusk Salt Farm can produce salt by itself.

For the remaining 4 gold coins, he simply purchased 4,000 units of grain directly. Coupled with the remaining 3,100 units of food from before, and the fish caught by the fishermen as a supplement, it is enough to support the territory to upgrade to a third-level village.

After some purchases, Ouyang Shuo's pockets immediately became empty. After arranging for someone to store the purchased materials in the warehouse, he suddenly seemed to have nothing to do.
