Chapter 348 Selecting a Fief

Northwest Fucheng is located at the junction of Qingzhou, Huangzhou and Yuzhou.

After arriving at the government office, Chen Yu summoned all the people in the government office, said a few words, and asked the rest to return to their posts.

"Master Hou, when did you choose the fiefdom?" Ma Wencai asked with a smile. In just a few months, he was promoted from the head of Jinghe County to the head of the Northwest Mansion, and his official position has also changed from the ninth rank to the current one. Zheng Liupin
"Yes, Lord Marquis, it is better to decide on the fiefdom as early as possible." Zhao Yuanzhi, the fifth-rank prime minister, agreed with a smile.

Marquises of the Daxia Empire could obtain 15 acres of fiefdom, covering a full [-] square kilometers.

The fief seems to be very large, only ten kilometers in length and breadth, and its area is equivalent to a small town on the Sky Blue Star.

The area of ​​the duke's fief is three times that of the marquis, and the area of ​​the prince's fief is three times that of the duke.

It has been more than 1000 years since the establishment of the Daxia Empire. Not counting the princes of the royal family, a total of nine princes, more than 100 dukes, and more than [-] marquises have been conferred.

Titles are divided into hereditary and non-hereditary titles, and hereditary titles are further divided into hereditary one generation, hereditary three generations, nine generations hereditary, and permanent hereditary titles that have never been canonized.

Today, the Great Xia Empire has only two princes, no prince with a different surname, only three dukes, and only five marquises.

"En." Chen Yu responded. He also wanted to choose the fief early, build a manor with a beautiful view, and then finish the planar light gate. When he is free, he can bring his family to travel.

"Master Hou, thirty miles away from Fucheng, there is a Yunwu Mountain with a natural lake on it," Ma Wencai said.

Spiritual consciousness spread out, and after looking at the situation in Yunwu Mountain, Chen Yu said, "Take out the map."

Ma Wencai nodded in response, and hurried to get a map.

"My fiefdom is centered on Yunwu Mountain and has a radius of five miles as its boundary." Chen Yu said.

"Lord Hou, I'll send someone to buy the owner's land within the fief." Ma Wencai said.

"Purchased at the market price, I don't need that little money at this time." Chen Yu laughed.

"Yes!" Ma Wencai nodded.

There are not many residents near Yunwu Mountain, and more than [-]% of the land is owned by the Great Xia Empire.

After obtaining the title, if you don't want to spend money, you can only choose the land owned by the government. Otherwise, you can only buy it with money.

The title is hard to come by, if you take it by chance, if you are not careful, you will lose the title, and you may even be imprisoned.

"Master Hou, when will you recruit private soldiers?" Zhao Zhiyuan asked.

"Tomorrow morning, I will be recruiting troops outside the government office. They are between fifteen and thirty years old, with a minimum monthly salary of twenty taels." Chen Yu said.

"Yes!" Zhao Zhiyuan nodded in response.

"By the way, get soap and perfume as soon as possible." Chen Yu said.

"Master Hou, shall we still do grenades and landmines?" Zhao Zhiyuan asked.

"The right to make grenades and mines has been taken away by His Majesty," Chen Yu said.

"Master Hou, can potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes be grown now?" Zhao Zhiyuan asked again.

"The potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes of the past are not suitable for planting now. I have obtained a batch of new varieties of corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. They can be planted now, but they will take a while to be delivered." Chen Yu said casually.

Ordinary people can fiddle with out-of-season vegetables. With his current strength, getting some out-of-season food is as easy as picking something out of a bag.

"Master Hou, in this way, wouldn't potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes be harvested twice a year?" Zhao Zhiyuan asked excitedly.

"In fact, in some places, potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes can be harvested three or four times a year." Chen Yu said.

In the early morning of the next day, tens of thousands of teenagers stood noisily outside the government office.

The Northwest Marquis recruited private soldiers for at least two taels of silver a month, and those who got the news were tempted by it.

There are people in the court who are good at handling things, and they are the third-rank officials in front of the prime minister.

Some people come for the monthly salary of two taels of silver, and some come for the additional benefits.

Becoming a private soldier of the Marquis of Northwest not only earns two taels of silver every month, but also benefits the family.

In the Northwest Mansion, who would dare to bully the family members of Lord Hou?

"Master Hou is here!" Ma Wenchai shouted loudly.

The scene was silent, everyone looked respectful, and shouted loudly: "I have seen Lord Hou."

Sitting on the chair, Chen Yu used the pupil of Hunyuan to select private soldiers.Veto those who have evil intentions, remove the eagle guards, wolf guards, and spies from the left and right prime ministers and marshals.

"Your face is not compatible with this marquis."

"Your appearance does not meet my requirements."

"You look good, horse owner Bo, please register him."

"Master Hou, what are you doing?" Zhao Zhiyuan asked doubtfully.

"I have learned some physiognomy. Anyway, the city is safe, why don't you experiment with physiognomy to select troops." Chen Yu said solemnly.

In less than half an hour, five hundred teenagers with excellent talents and honest personalities were selected by him.

"Go back and prepare, and report to the government office tomorrow." Chen Yu said.

"Yes, Lord Hou." Five hundred teenagers responded in unison.

After returning to the government office and handling some official business, Chen Yu pretended to go to the fief to check the situation.

When choosing a fief, he used his spiritual sense to look over the fief, and he knew better than anyone else what the situation there was like.

Building a manor and drawing drawings all require on-site inspections. If you have produced the drawings without ever going to the fief, it will be strange if no one will suspect you!
"The bottom and surrounding of this lake are stones, the water quality is clear and clean, and there is a spring, a pure natural swimming pool."

"Planting dozens of top-quality tea trees and various flowers on the top of the mountain is simply a holy place on earth."

"Plant hundreds of different types of fruit trees, build a stone road, and build several pavilions."

After thinking about the layout of Yunwu Mountain, Chen Yu walked down the mountain quickly, scanning the thousand li radius with his spiritual sense.

"I am now the Marquis of Northwest Prefecture and the prefect of Northwest Prefecture. I can build the cement factory, brick and tile factory, gravel factory and steel factory."

Riding back to the government office, Chen Yu took out a map and drew the plan of the fiefdom.

In the next few days, he took Ma Wencai, Zhao Zhiyuan and others, as well as five foreign girls, out of the city to investigate the conditions of the people.

"Sir, the stone is brown, this is an iron mine." Ma Li said.

"Master, we can build a steel factory here." Maya said.

"Hmm." Chen Yu nodded with amusement.

"Coal, sir, it's an open pit," said Anne.

"Coal, what is coal?" Chen Yu asked pretending to be ignorant.

"Something with a lot of heat," Annie explained.

"Oh." Chen Yu responded.

"Master, with coal, we can make steel," Annie said eloquently.

"Coal must be mined," Chen Yu said.

"Master, these yellow sands." Anna said.

"Build a sand factory here." Chen Yu said.

Seeing that Annie and the others were so knowledgeable and talented, Zhao Zhiyuan and Ma Wencai looked envious, and decided to buy some foreign slaves as well.

"It's terrible to be uneducated. It's so easy to fool them into being stunned." Chen Yu secretly laughed in his heart.

When everyone returned to the city, Ma Wencai dealt with the land issues of coal mines, iron mines, and brick and tile factories.

Zhao Zhiyuan sat in the government office and reviewed the official documents sent by the states and counties.

Chen Yu summoned five hundred private soldiers, and after making them his loyal loyalists, he increased their strength, filled them with various knowledge, and asked them to make soap and perfume.
