On the second day after Fengxiang was upgraded to the city, the fifth batch of chefs and weaver apprentices went to the school at the same time, and the output of the winery and weaver workshops in the territory was further increased.

It is worth mentioning that Fengxiang City has another senior chef, and the output of Fengxiang’s winery is expected to accelerate. This senior chef is also an adventure player, and this player named Zou Rong is just like the evaporation of the world. It seems that the temptation of food is quite powerful!

As the number of chefs increased, the amount of grain consumed by the brewery gradually increased. Fortunately, the "grain selling" campaign criticized by a city lord stopped shortly after the beginning. The income obtained from the addition of the Baihua wine and silk can completely fill the income from the sale of grain. In this way, Fengxiang's grain still has some surplus after meeting various needs.

Speaking of the issue of food, A Niu was right next to Fengxiang Wangsheng Town, and learned about the profession of "farmer" close. Farmers need senior farmers to build, and farming clubs are of extremely important significance to Fengxiang: Fengxiang's agricultural population proportion is quite high. Even if you only look at the direct territory, there are three townships with a total of 8,000 agricultural population. After the establishment of the farming club, you can research and improve the agricultural tools and species. Such a "technical revolution" is obviously of great significance to Fengxiang.

Before seeing the explanation of the "farmers", A Niu never realized that the "farmers" everywhere in ancient times were also a kind of technical talent, and there was no essential difference from skilled talents such as blacksmiths!

A certain city lord was speechless about such "hidden attributes". I think it was true that although farming is also a profession, it was difficult to accept that it was classified as a technical talent. However, the world's system was the largest, and this matter did not have any negative impact on Fengxiang's development, and a certain city lord was just a little surprised.

After Wangsheng Town was replenished, the population of the territory was nearly full. In Wangsheng Town, there were more than 60 senior farmers among the nearly 4,000 villagers, and the intermediate farmers were nearly 1,000! Fengxiang’s most powerful "technical team" is obviously no longer suitable for use on blacksmiths. This result made A Niu surprised and happy.

With so many talents, it is obviously very beneficial to the development of the territory. The skill level of talents will affect production efficiency. The higher the level, the higher the productivity. If the farmers' skill level in Wangsheng Town is above the advanced level, it is not impossible for Wangsheng Town to increase the grain output to twice as much as normal, or even more! Such a thing is obviously good news for A Niu, who has always valued food.

But from another perspective, the interest of a certain city lord is not so high. I didn’t know that the farmers also scored ranks. Fengxiang’s “School Recruitment Order” benefits never considered the hard-working peasant brothers. Now, after understanding the truth, it is really unreasonable to not give a bowl of water. However, Fengxiang has so many farmers. He strictly follows the subsidy method of the “School Recruitment Order”. The seemingly glorious “No. 1 City in the World” will immediately break the capital chain and go bankrupt!

"My lord, this matter should not be that complicated. Although farmers are divided into levels, I am afraid that the farmers in the territory themselves will not think that the 'recruitment order' is applicable to them. Who can't farm? At most, it's just a good or bad job. The salary level of the territory is already very high. Just a few days ago, I believe that even if the lord maintains the original state, the farmers in the territory will not have any rebound." The matter of issuing subsidies was originally the responsibility of Chen Gong's administrative center, so this gentleman naturally knew what was going on.

It has to be admitted that Chen Gong's words are extremely tempting to a certain city lord. Fengxiang's salary standards are already extremely high, and although the farmers shouldered the heavy responsibility of producing food in the Three Kingdoms era, they had no social status. Even if A Niu "vaguely" this matter, it would not be a big deal. At least, A Niu believes that Fengxiang's farmers will never have a big rebound, and may not even hear a nagging sound!

Fengxiang’s villagers are very simple, and a certain city lord’s series of governance actions have been recognized by the people in the territory.

"Public Bureau, even though that is the case, I still feel uneasy if I do that. People will not be trusted. Since our previous "recruiting craftsmanship order" has already made a statement, if we cannot keep our promises now, who else dares to believe us Fengxiang without reservation after it is spread?" A Niu was also very distressed about this. This matter is related to the image of the territory. To put it bluntly, it is a test of the "government credibility". If it is not handled properly, the trouble may be extraordinary.

"But there is a reason for this matter. At least the lord did not know the existence of the profession of farmer when he issued the order to recruit craftsmen! The palace was not reluctant to let go of the money, but the territory had just been upgraded to a city, and the expenditure on construction and military expansion was huge, so it was impossible to bear the cost."

Chen Gong is still unwilling to give up his efforts. As the actual person in charge of Fengxiang's daily affairs, Chen Gong knew very clearly that after Fengxiang was upgraded to a city, working capital had become very tight. The income of the territory did increase greatly, but compared with the huge expenses, it was still a bit insufficient. This wise man has begun to worry about this matter in the past two days.

In fact, Chen Gong is not an unreasonable person. To put it further, A Niu seems to be causing trouble for himself in this matter and getting stubborn. It is kindness and righteous to be willing to give subsidies to farmers. If you don’t want to give subsidies, no one will say that A Niu is unreasonable. The key to the problem is that Fengxiang does not have that much money at all!

A Niu was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head. Chen Gong only looked at the eyes of a certain city lord and knew that the matter had already been concluded and an irreversible decision.

"Although this matter can be done or not, in my opinion, the former is obviously more important between the reputation of the territory and money! Even if our villagers can ignore it, A Niu himself cannot let it go. Everyone needs to be responsible for their own actions!"

"Everyone needs to be responsible for their own behavior!" Chen Gong murmured this sentence in his heart, and A Niu's meaning was already very obvious.

"I also understand that the public service is for the sake of territory. Fengxiang's economic crisis is temporary. It will pass once you push it, but the people's support is long-term. Now we do not have enough funds to fulfill our promises, which does not mean that we will never be able to fulfill our promises." A Niu chuckled and looked at Chen Gong and said.

Chen Gong's eyes lit up. The reason why this gentleman opposed the subsidy for the "Crafting Craftsmanship Order" at this time was not that Chen Gong attaches great importance to money, because the financial situation in the territory was not allowed. A Niu's implied that he did not want to fulfill all of it in front of him. Such flexible measures made Chen Gong's worry seem redundant.

"What the lord means is that we will gradually issue farmers' subsidies based on the economic conditions of the territory until we finally fulfill our promises?"

"Yes. We can issue an announcement to inform all the villagers about the situation facing the current situation. Although the territory is now short of funds, this phenomenon will gradually ease with the start of construction of most buildings. I have probably calculated that it is still possible to solve the subsidy of senior farmers in one go."

There are 126 senior farmers in Fengxiang's direct territory, but there is not a single master-level farmer among the many talents, which makes a city lord feel very sorry. The subsidy of 126 senior farmers requires 327,600 gold, and Fengxiang can still take out this money. However, after this "tribulation", it is impossible to "waste" in a short period of time.

Chen Gong understood that A Niu had made up his mind and that the plan of a certain city lord was indeed feasible, so he stopped talking. In fact, Chen Gong vaguely guessed another meaning of A Niu: now only subsidies are issued to senior farmers, which will undoubtedly create a strong stimulation for beginner and intermediate farmers. Under such stimulation, only by working hard to improve their skills can we avoid suffering again!

Want a subsidy? OK! Then you can upgrade your level to higher level or above!

After the skill level of villagers in the territory was improved, of course, Feng Xiang was the one who benefited. A Niu's move was really "wise".

Soon, the first announcement after Fengxiang was upgraded to a city was issued. The announcement made a general explanation of the current financial situation of the territory (in fact, Fengxiang began to try transparent governance when he was at the township level), as well as a subsidy method for farmers' profession. First subsidize senior farmers in the directly affiliated territory, and then become talents from the colonies after the economic conditions improve.

A stone caused a thousand waves, and the villagers all over Fengxiang expressed their understanding and support for the announcement, especially the numerous farmers, who had no hope of receiving equal treatment with other skilled talents. Although A Niu failed to fulfill all the skills subsidies for farmers this time, the kind villagers' approach to a city lord was just a word of "good".

The territory has just been upgraded, built, and expanded its military expenses are so great that the lord doubled his salary a few days ago! Now it is just a "later" subsidy, what else can I expect?

The loyalty and support of Fengxiang villagers to the territory is gradually improved through these details.

In fact, this incident quickly spread throughout Qingzhou, and there is a saying that gradually became the consensus of many NPCs: in Fengxiang City, no matter what profession is, it will be a success!

Shortly after the announcement was issued, a city lord was directly knocked down by a system announcement.

"Dingdong. Zheng Aniu, the lord of Fengxiang City in Qingzhou, is kind and loving to the people. The 8,000 farmers belonging to the territory sincerely support Zheng Aniu. His earnest feelings touched the world and met the trigger conditions for the hidden mission "Huangdi's favor". Do you accept the mission?"

A Niu was confused, but his sensitivity to tasks, especially hidden tasks, still made A Niu react subconsciously. Of course, he killed the hidden tasks that were searching for without missing out. It would be strange if he didn't accept them. (To be continued,)
