Chapter 1446 Hope is the strongest weapon
Xiao Zhengyang glanced at Li Qiang and smiled.
"You boy is so anxious!"
"I plan to promote our experience to the whole province and build the whole province into an industrial center that will affect the whole country.
I plan to develop the population of our Qingyang and the whole province to two million within five years.
At that time, we could easily form an army of ten thousand people and give them all the most advanced rifles and artillery.
Anyone who wants to bully us again has to think twice about it!"
After hearing what Xiao Zhengyang said, the prisoners were so excited.
They don’t understand construction, but they are experts in war.
Xiao Zhengyang's rifle team used only twenty people two days ago, and then beat Shi Wenxuan's most elite team of 500 people to take off his armor.
Wouldn't it be too scary to form an army of tens of thousands of people! Xiao Zhengyang glanced at everyone.
“At that time, you will have your own home, your own wives and children.
Every day someone will do laundry and cook for you, and the children will go to school and study every day.
No one has to live a life of licking blood on the knife all day!"
Although these people are professional soldiers, they are all forced to join the military camp. They are basically forced to join the army because their families are too poor and have no money to eat.
If they could have food and clothing and live a peaceful life, they would not be willing to carry their swords to the battlefield.
For them, wives have a greater luxury than eating meat, and they are something they want but dare not think about.
After hearing from Xiao Zhengyang that they will have wives, children, and children can go to school, these people were so excited that their eyes were wet! Xiao Zhengyang felt relieved when he saw that everyone was moved by his words.
Although he can give these prisoners food and money at the moment, if they cannot see hope, their loyalty to Qingfeng Village will still be very low.
If you encounter a little setback, these people may run away.
I hope this thing seems illusory, but it is the thing that can affect people's hearts the most.
With hope, these people can withstand the pressure and continue to stay when their Qingfeng Village encounters difficulties.
Xiao Zhengyang also knew that this was a chaotic world.
There are many thieves like Shi Wenxuan around them, and they may find opportunities to pounce on them at any time and steal their food and wealth.
What he said may not be realized.
But Xiao Zhengyang also knows a truth: only by daring to think and do, ideals can be realized! To deal with those thieves who may pounce on them at any time, Xiao Zhengyang can only use violence to control violence, beat them torture and traumatize them.
Xiao Zhengyang has regarded this place as his home. In order to protect his home, Xiao Zhengyang can use any means, and care not to say he is a villain! Seeing that the prisoners in the entire prison camp had their eyes shining, Xiao Zhengyang knew that these people had been moved by the hope he gave and began to look forward to a better life in the future.
Xiao Zhengyang turned around and left the prisoner camp.
Li Qiang had just woken up from the bright future he longed for.
Seeing that Xiao Zhengyang had already gone out, Li Qiang quickly rolled up the planning map on the table and chased Xiao Zhengyang.
"Brother, are all the things you just said true?"
Before Xiao Zhengyang could answer, he heard someone snorting heavily behind him.
"Brother-in-law, you are bragging and fooling Xiaoqiang again, are you?"
As he spoke, Mi Yue walked out of the prisoner camp.
When Li Qiang saw Mi Yue, he quickly said hello.
"Sister Yueyue, you came to help Brother Xiao so early to treat these prisoners!"
Mi Yue hurriedly hid the alcohol in her hand behind her, snorted heavily at Xiao Zhengyang's chin.
"I'm not here to help him!"
"I'm here to see the handsome guys, okay!"
Li Qiang looked at Xiao Zhengyang and dared not speak anymore.
Xiao Zhengyang smiled faintly.
He had long seen the alcohol in Mi Yue's hand and knew that Mi Yue's mouth was wrong.
Mi Yue had already walked to Xiao Zhengyang at this time.
"Brother-in-law, I'll ask you.
It is not difficult for you to say that you will triple the shops in Liujiazhuang within one year.
But you said you should use high-quality and low-priced products to attract merchants from all over the world. How do you attract them?
Where do you get high-quality and low-priced products?
With the technological level here, there are no many of the most basic things, and even steam engines that simply improve production efficiency cannot be built.
Neither our Qingfengzhai nor Liujiazhuang had done handicrafts before, and the people here did not know how to use handicrafts at all.
How do you provide high-quality, low-priced products?”
Xiao Zhengyang patted Mi Yue on the shoulder.
"Yueyue, you don't have to worry about this.
Although we have nothing yet and everyone knows nothing! But we still have one year left.
In a year, we can accomplish a lot of things and let everyone learn a lot of skills!"
Mi Yue didn't believe Xiao Zhengyang's words.
"Don't just talk big! Then tell me your plan.
I want to hear what you do to attract tens of thousands of people within one year and build this small place into a commercial center!”
Mi Yue felt a sense of anger when she saw Guan Qingzhu going to Xiao Zhengyang's room last night.
That's why I took this opportunity to deliberately embarrass Xiao Zhengyang and make him lose face in front of these prisoners.
Xiao Zhengyang had long been accustomed to Mi Yue's willfulness, and also knew that although Mi Yue was a little more willful, she still cared about him in her heart.
Xiao Zhengyang was not angry either.
"This is actually not difficult at all."
"First of all, we use the 30,000 dan of grain to recruit more people to dig canals and divert water for us, log wood and build shops, and do infrastructure construction first. Is this okay?
I've already inquired.
This is enough to hire an ordinary migrant worker around, and it is enough to give one kilo of rice a day.
Such a thing can’t be grabbed by many people.
We are Mido, I plan to give them three kilograms of rice each.
In this way, the food they earn in one adult can support the family in one day.
After all, we need about one tumble of rice to hire a migrant worker a month.
We can use 20,000 dan of rice to get it, so can we hire 4,000 people to work for five months?
Five months later, our own food can be collected.
I asked the local old farmers.
This radius of thirty miles is actually many rivers, lakes and ditches.
However, in recent decades, there have been no peace and wars. These ditches have been unmaintained for many years, and many places have collapsed and blocked the waterways, which has caused 90% of the fields in this place to be without water and the grain output cannot be increased.
As long as we re-unblock these blocked waterways, we can complete the thirty-mile field diversion of water.
The project is not big.
By the time we use these 4,000 people to build the water diversion system in this area, we can develop at least 200,000 acres of high-quality fertile land.
The income of these top-quality fertile fields will not be less than 300 kilograms in one quarter, right?
Only with enough water, they can achieve this yield by themselves.
I've asked the local old farmer this."
