Chapter 577: : The final supplementary redemption (1/2)

Zong Shen paused, then continued to add.

”Tiezi, you will keep this chariot temporarily, and it is strictly forbidden to leave the living area within three kilometers without my order.”

”Salome Linyu, you have to keep this sweet potato vine, and arrange for it to be planted tomorrow.”

The first to respond was Barenque Ironhand, who jumped excitedly on the chariot.

”Your orders are my light!”

”I am your most loyal leader!”

Its tone was exuberant, and its voice seemed very sharp, enough to represent his excitement.

The next one who responded was Salome Linyu.

He held the sweet potato vine carefully and nodded solemnly.

”My lord, rest assured, I will take good care of it.”

From Zong Shen's description, Salome Lin Yuguang knew the importance of sweet potatoes to the territory.

With the care of this natural druid, coupled with the protection of good fields, [Farmland Tower] and [Nature Totem], it is not a problem to grow a sweet potato breeding field.

Even if the territory is to face new challenges next, he is sure to be able to keep it.

At this time, senior pharmacist Clarissa Theresa also took a step forward and saluted Zong Shen.

Zong Shen also nodded in return respectively.

”As for your work and workshop, there will be clear results tomorrow.”

”The specific Mariel will inform you.”

”It's late at night, let's rest early.”

After speaking, he lifted his chin to Maryl.

The latter took the initiative to guide Salome Linyu and Clarissa Theresa into the rear compartment of the weight-bearer mecha with a smile, and then walked to the side of the Earthshaker chariot, and explained a few words to the goblin engineer. sentence.

At this time, Nature Druid Salome Linyu noticed the [Juvenile Old Tree of Knowledge] planted on the east side of the central area.

”what?”

”Unexpectedly, there is still an old natural tree in the adult's territory!”

”Can I go over and take a look?”

Salome Linyu turned around and pleaded with Zong Shen.

His eyes flickered, and he looked a little excited.

Zong Shen nodded and agreed readily.

”Of course you can, but please hurry up.”

”After all, it's already late at night.”

”You will have many opportunities to get along with it in the future.”

After obtaining Zong Shen's permission, Salome Linyu nodded hurriedly, and then quickly walked towards the ancient tree of knowledge, this seemingly calm natural druid has a passion for plants derived from nature.

Zong Shen gently waved at Mariel, motioning her to wait for a while.

At this time, Mariel had finished speaking with Barenque Ironshou, and sat back in the driving position to start the Heavy Bearer mech.

Senior agronomist Clarissa Theresa climbed into the cargo hold of the load-bearer.

The goblin engineer Barenque Ironhand also got into the cockpit of the chariot and started the chariot, ready to follow the heavy-bearer mecha and leave the central area.

Zong Shen stood with his hands behind, tilted his head slightly, staring at Salome Linyu towards the ancient tree of knowledge.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered something and patted his head.

”Wait, Mariel.”

”I just exchanged 5,000 sets of cotton and linen clothes. Let it be handed to you now.”

”It will be distributed to everyone tomorrow, and the surplus will be set aside for the time being.”

Zong Shen explained to Maryl.

As an interior officer, Mariel naturally understands the situation of the leading farmers.

Clothing is indeed something that the citizens urgently need.

Especially those refugees, all of them are in ragged state, which lowered the overall appearance of the territory.

It's just that this problem doesn't affect normal life after all, so Maryl did not report in time, but she did not expect Zong Shen to solve this problem first.

After hearing her lord say this, Maryl immediately jumped out of the driver's seat and came to Zong Shen's front.

”It's great, my lord.”

”After putting on these clothes, the mental outlook of the leaders will definitely be greatly improved.”

”In fact, in addition to clothing, the number of citizens nowadays is increasing. We should...”

Maryl was ready to take advantage of this time to report some current problems in the territory to Zong Shen.

With the rapid growth of the number of citizens, the problems caused by big pot rice have become more and more obvious.

However, Zong Shen stretched out a palm and pressed it down, signalling Mariel to stay safe.

”I understand these problems.”

”The uniform distribution of food and tasks will make the leaders become confused and lack motivation.”

”They can't get paid, can't buy... and they have no way to buy supplies.”

”The territory must establish a commercial internal circulation and paid jobs in order to have the same vitality as a normal state city and village.”

”I told you before that the reform of the freedmen is imperative, but the time has not yet arrived.”

”So rest assured, everything will be maintained in accordance with the original standards.”

Zong Shen said very calmly.

He naturally understood what Mariel wanted to say.

He had considered these problems a long time ago, and the more people there are, the more serious the problem will be.

Therefore, Zong Shen firmly believed that the reform of the free people was imperative.

No territory can get to the black by relying on the big pot meal mode.

Although Daguofan is simple and rude, it is no doubt that it has turned all the leaders into tool people.

If things go on like this, they will always lose their vitality.

Relying on the lord and a few domestic heroes to control the development of the entire territory in every detail, the later, the lower the administrative efficiency will become.

For long-term development, the reform of the freedmen is an inevitable link.

Although there will be some trouble after the reform, the long-term pain is not as good as the short-term pain.

The reform of the freedmen was completed, and a circular business system and a sound administrative system within the territory were formed.

It must be countless times better than a big pot of rice.

At that time, apart from arable land, free citizens can also join all walks of life by means of assessment.

A vibrant territory and an efficient bottom-up administrative system can make the territory embark on a fast track of development.

The reverse is also true. Rigid constituencies and bloated, chaotic, and inefficient administration will become the biggest shackles for territorial development.

Zong Shen knew this truth well.

The big pot meal strategy is only suitable for the early stage of development, when the number of people is less than a few hundred.

It can be twisted into a rope to give priority to solving development problems.

However, when the development of the territories reaches a certain level and the number of citizens begins to increase sharply, the big pot meal strategy is no longer applicable.

Territories with different development schedules and different backgrounds must be replaced with appropriate strategies according to local conditions. Farming development also has a lot of knowledge.

Although Zong Shen is not a bigwig in government affairs, his advanced development progress has given him far-reaching consideration and vision.

After listening to what he said, Mariel was relieved, ready to handover.

5000 sets of cotton and linen clothes also occupy 5 storage compartments, which does not occupy a large area. After the process of taking them out and collecting them, Mariel put all the cotton and linen clothes into her storage compartment.

”My lord, I will distribute these clothes with everyone tomorrow morning.”

Mariel nodded and said.

Zong Shen nodded and added casually.

”Also, wait for me in the fortress lobby after the clothes are distributed tomorrow.”

”I also have a batch of good field drawings and drawings of defensive arrow towers to be handed over to you tomorrow morning.”

”Let's come back soon and rest soon.”

After speaking, Zong Shen raised his hand and touched Mariel's head.

Ma Lier smiled sweetly, nodded slightly, but did not say much, and went straight back to the driver's seat of the load-bearer.

Zong Shen also smiled, and then turned his gaze back on the [Ancient Tree of Knowledge in Infancy].

He knew that these tree spirits of the elven race were able to communicate with humans.

The same is true for the ancient guardians in the territory.

However, this [ancient tree of knowledge in its infancy] has not taken the initiative to speak since it was planted.

Every time Zong Shen was next to him, its eyes and mouth were closed tightly.

Although Zong saw this in his eyes, he did not have any deep thoughts.

In the final analysis, the tree spirit is also a very special species.
