technical type

"Is it you talking nonsense?"

What happened yesterday quickly spread to the ears of the border city lord. Ji Mo didn’t think it was strange. When he was brought here, he should kneel down and kowtow. Do as the Romans do in the countryside, and have some understanding of this deep-rooted etiquette system.

When you are in a high position, you can straighten your spine, and when you are in a low position, you can also bend your waist.

Fundamentally speaking, kneeling is not a means of humiliating and torturing people. Not kneeling may not be noble, and kneeling is not humble. It is purely regarded as a kind of etiquette, just like children kneeling to their parents. An official always has parents. What's wrong with kneeling?

"Don't dare, it's my servant who speaks recklessly, but he must do it. I hope the general will agree."

The generals of the border town are not of high rank, and the hundreds of people under his command can barely defend this small town. The lack of attack is due to defense. Once the barbarians are determined to attack the city, they may not be able to defend it. At most, they are just a lookout As a result, if there is a large group of barbarians attacking, someone can report the news from now on, so that the rear can defend early.

Such a general made him have great ambitions, such as calming down the barbarians, opening up territories and so on, I'm afraid he can't do it, but if it's purely for profit, who doesn't like it?

"Really? Tell me in detail."

The general has already heard that the city here is too small, and what happened in the east of the city can spread throughout the city in half a day, not to mention that after one night, many people have already been moved by the concept of "crowdfunding to build a city" proposed by Ji Mo, and opened up wasteland. It's tiring, but the land that was developed is our own, which is enough to make people happy.

The same is true for building a city. For many small people, their lifetime wealth may not be enough to buy a shop in the city, but if they participate in the construction of the city, they can get a bigger than expected without investing enough money to buy a shop. What is there not to like?

There is also the kind of refugee who has no family property and cannot survive in other places. Here, you can get land with your own efforts. How many do you think are unwilling?

Most importantly, there are no civil servants here!

This is an important point. The civil servants are responsible for governance and tax collection. When the civil servants are missing, shouldn’t governance and tax collection be avoided?

No, I have to accept the same, and what I receive, I am afraid it will become the general's personal collection.

Besides, there are more people, and there are some differences.

It is said that empty pay in the army is unavoidable, but if there is an opportunity to support private soldiers, several generals will not be willing.

In ancient times, if wars were really fought with strong men drawn by force, even if there was a supervising team, things would often collapse at the touch of a touch. Generals fought with the help of private soldiers around them.

Don't blame certain armies for being called "a certain army" at every turn. It is really inevitable for generals to raise troops.

Those things are not what Ji Mo cares about, so he doesn't probe into whether the situation is good or bad, he only cares about how the situation in front of him is good or bad for himself.

A soldier who wants to be a general would hope that he has more soldiers under his command, and he also hopes that he will be treated better, so he will not refuse beneficial things.

"This matter is your own idea. This general protects the environment and the people, and does not interfere with businessmen's exchanges. Naturally, he will not interfere with people's gatherings. As long as there is no trouble, you can do it yourself."

Some people have taxes, and those who have taxes are money. The general squinted his eyes. He still understands these things very well. Then, what these people do by themselves cannot be blamed on him. Even if the news spreads, it is just one person. The delusion of others, the mad rebellion of several people, what does it have to do with oneself?

As a general, can he still control what people eat and sleep?

As long as you can manage to collect money, it will be fine.

The general was already moved here, and even thought about how to help from the side, so that this matter can be completed quickly, and what should be eaten quickly, but on the surface he remained calm.

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Ji Mochu thought it was the general who didn't allow it, and he was still screaming in his heart. If the general didn't allow it, he really couldn't do anything here. He could only try to go deep into the grassland. Just build a great city.

Only after hearing the second half of the sentence did I understand.

Oh, don't want to take responsibility!

OK, no problem!

As long as you don't give a stumbling block, you are supporting!

Ji Mo has only one requirement for the local garrison, not because he has low requirements, but because he is too aware of the difference between the ancient army and the modern one.

What kind of military experience, such as combing, "soldiers and bandits", "soldiers and bandits", are officers and soldiers when they put on clothes, and bandits when they take off their clothes.

With a lot of experience, naturally you won't have more expectations for these soldiers. If it's not a bad thing, it's a good thing.

"Thank you General for your generosity."

Ji Mo saluted and thanked him.

With the acquiescence of the general, Ji Mo became bolder in doing things. Originally, he was an ordinary person with no power to organize or anything. To be precise, he did not have enough money and food, but on the one hand, he fooled some people into becoming heroes. city ​​believers.

Imagination is always better, and people can't wait to turn imagination into reality.

On the other hand, he pretended to be arrogant, implying that other generals have agreed to this matter, and obeyed the management of one place. Even though some businessmen are not willing to invest money for this kind of thing, as long as they do business here, it is inevitable. If the local soldiers get stuck, it is easy for them to reject Ji Mo here, but if those soldiers really want to cause trouble for them, it is not easy to go directly to the family and let them go bankrupt. The unlucky guy in the hands of the barbarians is still very easy.

It is even easier to directly cut off their business routes.

Spending money to keep you safe is not a difficult thing to understand when you are away from home. Some people just think that Ji Mo is collecting protection fees, so they simply give the money and ask their own buddies to help out during their stay. Very face-saving.

It is also a disguised appearance to show goodwill to the general.

Some people, those more powerful businessmen, saw the profit of this matter, and directly talked to Ji Mo about their support.

"Man, we can find it and send it, together with the money, we can also support it, but the specific drawings..."

When buying land with money, the land that has been reclaimed is one price, the wasteland that has not been reclaimed is another price, and the wasteland that is not yet visible and the expected income that is not yet visible are another price.

These big businessmen obviously know what to do with a business worth a million dollars. Ji Mo is not stupid, he knows the multiple interests involved, but his pursuit is different from these people, so naturally he won't be fussy about this matter.

The blueprints have been produced a long time ago, and it’s like reciprocating. Let the general choose it first, saying that in the future, he can build a general’s mansion for the general somewhere in the future. There is no need to bring his family with him in the current border town. Take it away, but the future border town will become more prosperous and stronger, but it may not be the case.

Ji Mo took the blueprint, gestured on it, and talked, talking in a gaudy way, making the general look at the small square on the blueprint, smiling and squinting his eyes, looking small, but the actual area is not small, Who wouldn't want to have such a fortune after the city is built?

If the border town really prospers, the prices of houses and shops here will increase several times. At that time, if he is promoted and sold directly, he will get a lot of money, which is indeed better than getting money directly.

Leaving in front of the general, Ji Mo thirstily poured a big sip of water into his mouth. It was really not easy to persuade the general not to draw money now, but fortunately, he was always persuaded.

Next, there are big businessmen who invest money.

Just like a pre-sale of real estate, the blueprints are spread out, and several big businessmen are present, first marking where is the place reserved by the general, where is the shop that needs to be kept, where is the residence, and where is...

Pointing out everything is not enough, Ji Mo even drew a few renderings carefully and meticulously by himself.

As for the renderings, anyone who knows a little about real estate sales knows that the pictures on the leaflets that are so heart-warming may not be turned into reality, but the action effects it brings are real.

A few businessmen who originally invested a little, saw the beautiful renderings and made additional investment on the spot. A planning meeting for dividing up the land was like a meeting for recruiting students and attracting investment, which caused some noise about money and food.

Don't be afraid of them being noisy, just be afraid that they won't be noisy, the more noisy, the more excited you will be!

"Maybe it's a century-old family business, and there are three caves for the cunning rabbit. What's wrong with having more here? Why do you hesitate about this profitable business? Putting money in the cellar will not make money, it can only flow and turn it into investment. Houses, shops, and fields can all be turned into family foundations. If there is one more place, there is nothing wrong with it. If it is difficult to defend border towns, there will be more people in the future, but it may not be the case. It's difficult, besides, the barbarians are not good at attacking the city, as long as the city wall is strong enough, what are we afraid of them?"

Ji Mo's voice is hoarse. These days, he has said too much and inspired too many people. He never expected that the first step of becoming a construction engineer would be a real estate sale or a pre-sale by him. Maybe, if these people defend their rights, he has no way out.

"That makes sense!"

Some people agree that what he saw was the field analysis made by Ji Mo. This form is a piece of paper, which looks simple and does not contain many words, but the meaning it writes is moving. They thought that only the land with grass , In fact, it is also very suitable for farming. In other words, if it is reclaimed, it is at the level of good land. In addition, there are few rocks and the like here, and the difficulty of reclaiming is also low, which means...

The benefits that anyone can see, this is to let them enclose the land!

Those vast lands that seem to be infested by war can actually be turned into their own fertile land.

People die for money, in the face of such huge benefits, what are the barbarians who come and go like the wind, who only know how to plunder?

There is no objection, Ji Mo's ideas about building the city are gradually turning into reality, and his third phase of the project has also been recognized by everyone.
