I just want to build a city

After finding a suitable person in charge of repairing the thatched cottage, Xing took the man named Koichiro back to meet Haruki-kun.

Yuan Qingshu's noon, sitting in the corridor as usual, looking at the cherry tree hanging in the courtyard, with warm eyes and a small smiling face, no matter how you look at it, you seem to be thinking about something beautiful .Qingshu was indeed thinking about beautiful things, what he was thinking about was how to eat these lovely cherries after the cherry tree matured.

Cherry jam?Cherry glutinous rice?Cherry cider?What, he is only five years old, not the age to drink?Bury it under the cherry tree, wait for her to grow up, and then open it to enjoy, isn't it just right?

Qingshu sat in the corridor and thought happily, here, Xing led Koichiro into the manor.It was the first time for Koichiro to enter such an exquisite courtyard house, desperately holding back his gaze that wanted to look around, he just lowered his head, looked at Kyoko's heels, and followed her.When he first set foot on the smooth and tidy wooden boards, he happened to see a girl younger than Xing trying to wipe the boards, which made him unable to walk among the boarded corridors for a while.

Fortunately, he is calm enough. At this time, he is also very glad that he stayed in the village today and did not go fishing at sea. If other unsteady young men from the village came over and one of them did not walk steadily, his body would smash the floor of the nobleman's house If you make a hole, it may be difficult to see people again.

Thinking of this possibility, Koichiro's hairline became a little cold sweat.

"You wait here for me to call you before you go in." Xing took Koichiro to the gate of the main courtyard where Qingshu lived, stopped, and instructed, seeing that there was a lot of sweat on Koichiro's head, and his face was a little nervous , I couldn't help but say one more sentence. "Don't be too nervous, the master is a generous person."

It was just a warning to the servants who were greedy for money, let alone civilians they didn't know.

Although Yuxing said so, Koichiro had to raise his heart because he had dealt with noble people a few times before, or had experienced such an experience from the sidelines.

Not long after Xing entered, a servant whom he didn't know walked quickly to the gate of the courtyard with small steps.The person who came stood at the corner of the courtyard gate and waved to him.

"Are you Hiroichiro?"

"Yes."

"Master asked me to call you over."

Koichiro followed the maid into the main courtyard, this one was not so accommodating to the newcomer Koichiro, his steps were fast and steady, he could only speed up to catch up.

Wandering around into the courtyard of the main courtyard, as long as Koichiro raised his head, he would be able to see Haruki-kun sitting in the corridor holding a cup of tea, but as a commoner, he would never dare to raise his head now .

After reaching a certain distance, the maid knelt down on the ground and bowed forward, and Koichiro quickly followed suit.

"Kōichiro from Upper Linhai Village has arrived."

"Well, back off."

Koichiro, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his eyebrows in surprise. This noble master's family is so immature, it sounds like a child who is only five or six years old.

Koichiro thought really well, so he put the five-year-old Haruki-kun down the teacup in his hand, and looked at the young man kneeling in the courtyard. Looking at him like this, he really felt familiar.

"Did I, where have I met you?"

"This is the first time I have come to your manor." Koichiro replied, not timid at all.

Hearing this voice, Qingshu was even more sure that he had seen this person before.Because he has nothing to do, he is very good at observing and remembering everyone around him, especially some things that impress him deeply.

"You are, the fisherman who gave me a sea fish by the seaside of Tottori more than a year ago and gave me a fire." That's right, the thing that impressed Haruki-kun is that he had one of the few gourmet experiences.At that time, it was the first time since he was born that he ate such delicious sea fish. The fisherman who gave him the sea fish was kind enough to help him light a fire and roast it to prevent him from being burned by the fire. He was a nice person.

Hearing what Haruki-kun said, Koichiro raised his head in astonishment, and then quickly bent down.This quick glance still reminded him that the nobleman in front of him was indeed someone he had met once.More than a year ago, when he came back from fishing at the beach, he happened to see a little nobleman standing on the beach in Tottori, staring at him for a long time before he came forward, wanting to buy Previous article.

Hiroichiro felt very cute.

A sea fish is nothing to him. Knowing that Qingshu-kun wanted to eat fresh sea fish, he helped him process the raw fish with a knife, and roasted it with the few grains of salt on his body.Koichiro didn't take the fish money given to him by the little nobleman, and when he got home, he still found a few more copper coins in his broken pocket.

However, the host here is a child who had a fate with a fish, so Koichiro finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I heard from Xing that you are from the village closest to the manor near the sea in the north."

"Yes, the village where I live is called Shanglinhai Village."

In this way, if we go further, there must be villages like Xia Linhai Village.

"Xing should have told you that I want to build a few thatched huts next to my farmland. Originally, I wanted to see what she chose. Now, I don't need to try again."

A little bit of joy rose in Koichiro's heart.

"You are a good person. Please repair and build the thatched hut next to the farmland. It will be a place for civilians to live on the land in the future. In terms of wages, I will pay you directly. If you have any requirements, come directly to the manor Just find her."

"Yes, thank you for your trust."

The matter of the thatched hut in the farmland finally came to an end. As soon as Koichiro returned to the village, he was surrounded by the villagers.

"Kiroichiro, is it settled that the nobles in the manor asked us to build thatched cottages?"

"It's how many thatched huts we need to repair and build. We won't let us spend the whole busy season on helping him build thatched huts."

"Everyone, don't be nervous, the owner of the manor at Nankou is not a harsh person." Koichiro said loudly, successfully suppressing the gossip of dozens of people. "The owner of the manor doesn't want many thatched cottages, only four or five. It won't delay the busy farming time, and there is still wages to be paid. We will arrange the specific matters tomorrow."

After Koichiro said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This is the time for the crops in the field to mature. After harvesting, they should be sold in larger towns.If this time is missed, not to mention the quality of the crops, if the crops cannot be sold, their lives will be difficult in the second half of the year. Fishing by the sea is also a very difficult time.

It is really a great thing to not miss the busy time of farming and get wages at the same time.

……

Koichiro moved very quickly. The next day, after lunch, Haruki opened the system map with a book in his hand, pretending to be studying, and saw a group of pixel-style villains, dressed in ordinary peasant clothes , each holding a tool in their hands, heading towards the direction of the manor's farmland.

Qingshu's consciousness poked the pixel-style villain who took the lead on the map, and his message jumped out: Koichiro, farmer, fisherman.

I poked the other people, but I couldn't see any information. I guess I had to meet real people and know their names before I could see their information on the map.

This is a good function. Sitting at home, you can roughly see where a person has gone. When a stranger arrives on his land, he can find it immediately. OK.

Qingshu took a sip of tea, quickly rejected this choice in his head, he should recruit samurai as soon as possible, and let the samurai patrol his land, staring at the map so hard, he also wanted to spend his good time enjoying delicious food on it.

In this way, everyone should be familiar with the rules of three meals a day, and it's time to change the recipe.

……

Koichiro has indeed lived up to Haruki-kun’s trust. The people who were chosen to build the thatched cottages are quick-witted, and the quality of the finished thatched cottages is also very good. In just one week, four high-quality thatched cottages were built beside the road. , next to the farmland, it is very convenient to take care of.

Mr. Qingshu got the information on the map that the thatched cottages were of good quality, so he didn't go there in person during the acceptance inspection, and asked Xing to settle the wages for these helping farmers.

In the past, of course, it is impossible to just settle the wages as Mr. Qingshu said. I took someone to look at the thatched cottage and confirmed that it was perfect, so I settled the wages of 50 yuan for each of them. . The salary of 50 liters is not too much, but it is still happy to have some more income for no reason.

"The thatched huts must be built well, and the peasants who live here are probably very popular with the master." The commoner who had received his wages couldn't help sighing.

"But I think the soybeans grown in the four acres of land are not as good as ours." The other person couldn't help but whispered.

"Jiro." Seeing that these two people were actually in front of the house, Koichiro began to chew the tongue of the nobleman, and immediately scolded in a low voice, the two whispering immediately fell silent, very obedient.

Xing didn't think much about their conversation. The soybeans were served by people in the manor who didn't know much about farming, and the ones they planted were not as good as the common people who specialize in farming. It was a matter of course.

"The master's family will live in Tottori for a long time in the future, and all the miscellaneous things in the manor will be planned step by step. These thatched cottages are for people who will be recruited and rented out in the future."

"Is it for the common people who leased the land? I haven't seen how well it's done, so let them live in this thatched cottage?" Although the thatched cottage is not worth much, several people in Shanglinhai Village were still a little surprised.

Xing lowered her eyes and nodded. "Naturally, as for how well they do, the master has his own consideration."

What considerations can a five-year-old have?

Koichiro, who was the only one who knew how old the owner of the manor was, couldn't help but frowned. After thinking for a long time, he still stepped forward to ask. "Is the farmland of the manor waiting for the harvest of this season to recruit farmers?"

Xing nodded. "That's right."

"May I ask what the rent and taxes are for the estate's land?"

The current Heian-kyo is in the process of reforming the land system, which is divided into the land block system and the lord system. The land block system is the contracting of land by commoners themselves.The state pays heavy taxes on private contracting by civilians. Basically, after a year, the income of ordinary people's farmland for a year, except for supplying the country and meeting their own living expenses, can't save much money for their families.

Compared with ordinary people, the land tax of the nobles is much lower, not to mention the clans like the Fujiwara family who hold great power in the court.In this way, many common people are forced to go to the clan's family as servants, Zhuangmin, but it is only better than contracting the land by themselves.

What's more important is that on the land of the clan, the clan will protect the safety of the villagers.Of course, some manor owners may not care about the life and death of these civilians, they just have some guarantees.

"The owner of the Yuan family said that the annual rent for the farmland is 50 renminbi, and every time the crops are handed in, it will be a good deal. The thatched cottage can be given to the tenants to live in, but if they live in and accept the protection of the manor, they have to pay a maintenance fee every year. Of course, from You can know the rent of the farmland, and the cost will not be very high."

"Is the rental fee for the farmland only 50 ren?" Jiro was very surprised at the young people who were reprimanded by Koichiro.This is much lower than the general rental fee.If this is the case, they can save at least two or three consistent copper coins a year if they pay less than the usual rent and crops every year.

"Miss, me, can we rent the farmland of the manor?"

"It would be great if the manor reclaimed more farmland, so maybe everyone can move here." Another person couldn't help but whispered.

Xing smiled lightly and nodded, she said so much, but finally she didn't say anything in vain.Seeing the work attitude of Koichiro and others these days, Xing has an idea to help the young master keep these farmers. Since he wants to recruit farmers, the first batch must at least find reliable and knowledgeable people, right?Although most civilians dare not act recklessly in front of the clan, there will be many small tricks, so let Qingshu-kun think less.

"The farmland is not limited to the current few acres. It's just that the owner of Minamoto just came to Tottori, and this large piece of land has not had time to be reclaimed. If people from Shanglinhe Village want to come to the manor to rent land to do things, I can ask the owner if they can Reclaim more farmland and huts."

"That, that would be great."

"Miss Xing, can I go back and discuss it again?" Koichiro was much calmer than these young people, and thought more about it. Xing had already prepared for this, so he nodded in agreement, and asked them to take their wages and go back.

The four acres of soybeans in the manor field can be harvested, which is about the same as what Xing asked someone to estimate. The net profit of soybeans per acre can have almost a consistent income.

Although Mr. Qingshu told Xing to stop worrying about the past, Xing still couldn't help feeling sad when recording the account books, and wanted the samurai in the manor to bring back the former steward and pay back the money by working.

It's just that now, the former steward's family may have fled to the territory of other clans, maybe the political enemies of Fujiwara and Genji, so it's difficult for them to act.

I don't know what this Koichiro discussed with the people in the village. The next day, he found the manor and met Xing.Mr. Qingshu didn't know what they discussed, but the news brought to him was not very good news.

Not long after Xing was found by Koichiro, Cairo's city building system popped up automatically, and two tasks suddenly popped up on the task page that had not been moved for a month.

Task [-]: The villagers of Shanglinhai Village decided to move to your manor land to live in. Please build enough thatched houses for the villagers of Shanglinhai Village to live in.

Task [-]: The villagers of Shanglinhai Village decided to move to work on your manor land. Please reclaim enough land so that each family can have a job.

Building thatched huts and reclaiming fields are actually not troublesome things. What makes Qingshu feel bad is that even if he doesn't care about this city building system in a Buddhist way, this damn system will trigger various tasks due to changes in reality. He had to pay attention.

what is this?On how to transform a Buddhist player?

Xing came back not long after, and the news and things he brought back were the same as the tasks that the system jumped out of, which made him even more headache.Abandoning the mission, just ignoring the requests of real people, coming and going again and again, the favorability is reduced, how is he going to carry out his diet transformation plan on this land?

If the goodwill is not enough, who will hunt and catch fish, make wine, and cook all kinds of delicacies for him?

Heh, this is the beginning of the process of being forced by Buddhist players.

……

It is naturally impossible for Mr. Qingshu to refuse the villagers of Shanglinhai Village to rent his field and move to live on his land. We started to build the thatched hut.Because the thatched hut itself was given to them to live in, these people said that they would not collect wages any more, and only took the material fee of the thatched hut, and started the construction of the new residence.

Taking out a bag of copper coins from his hand, Xing brought back half of the bag and told Qingshu-kun about it.

"Since they don't charge wages, let's offset it in the rent of the field and the rent of the occupancy." Qingshu twisted the incense pill in his hand, thinking about what kind of incense to use indoors and on clothes in autumn.

Xing put the money bag next to the pill box, not understanding Qingshu's intention. "Why is Qingshu-kun so obsessed with paying the wages for building this house?"

In her opinion, the villagers in Shanglinhai Village did nothing wrong. Since they lived in the thatched huts given to them, how could they ask the host family to pay for the construction of their houses.Of course, this house still belongs to Genji, so they charged for the materials of the thatched house.

"Things, that's not what I said. This land is mine, and the projects on this land are naturally mine. The cost of materials and construction wages should also be mine. In this way, no matter how you say it , Everything on this land belongs to me. The villagers contributed, I hired them, and the village gradually formed in the future, what I want to do, where to build, and they can't have any objections." Qingshu Carefully take out two kinds of incense pills, 【Falling Leaves】 and 【Chrysanthemum】, as 【Incense Shifting】 and 【Empty Incense】in autumn.

Xing stepped forward, put away the incense box, took another small wooden box, put the [fallen leaves] and [chrysanthemum] in, handed it to the maid waiting outside, and asked her to send it to the procurement office for the next season, Mr. Qingshu Incense pills to use.

After preparing the incense, Xing turned around and bought him new tea. "How dare those civilians have any objection to your choice."

"Although the Fujiwara family can be said to cover the sky with one hand in front of the emperor, potential political enemies are waiting to seize one by one and drag the Fujiwara family down. Most of Genji's current status is the samurai clan who wants to replace it." Qingshu smelled the aroma of new tea, and said again. "Look at the early days of Heian, before the Fujiwara family, there were not no powerful ministers. The result now is that the samurai of the Zhuangmin people below were provoked to rebel. Although the rebellion was successfully suppressed in the end, the clan of powerful ministers , it’s not likely to be seen in Heianjing now.”

Of course Xing knew which rebellion Qingshu-kun was referring to, the Hirashomon Rebellion. This rebellion was finally suppressed by Qingshu-kun’s father Minamoto Yoshinobu. died in time.At that time, Kanto was the territory of several generals, one of which was Genji.Of course, this Genji is not the Qinghe Genji of Minamoto Haruki's father's clan, but now, it is the Qinghe Genji clan who suppressed the rebellion and occupied the entire Kanto region.

Substituting what Haruki-kun said just now, Xing suddenly felt cold. At that time, Genji Nakaman's family still relied on Fujiwara's generals. In that battle, they occupied Kanto and became another important official in the court, which strengthened the power of Fujiwara. .Although Xing is smart, she has never thought about the connection. Now that she thinks about it, her hands and feet are cold.

What Qingshu-kun means is that since the Fujiwara family can use this method to drag others down and bring the Genji clan up, why can't others use this method?What's more, he is in Tottori, which is far away from Kyoto. Even if Fujiwara cannot be dragged into the water, it is good to shake the foundation of his power.

"A five-year-old child's nonsense, what are you doing so seriously, Xing." Just when Xing was in a daze, childish laughter rang in her ears.

Xing came back to her senses, it was really hard to treat Qingshu-kun as a child at this moment.Mr. Dolong is right, if Haruki-kun enters the officialdom, he will definitely be able to further strengthen the power of the Fujiwara clan.

"Since I chose to leave Heianjing, I don't really want to participate in the chaos. If I want not to be involved, of course I must take everything in my territory into my own hands."

To put it bluntly, it means working harder in the early stage, cultivating loyal villagers and warriors, and protecting yourself with airtightness, so that you can live a leisurely and happy life in the future.That's what I said, but looking at Qingshu's performance in the past two months, it can't be compared with hard work.

According to the blueprint arranged by Mr. Qingshu, the thatched houses are very neatly built on both sides of the road. After considering that the public buildings may have the same effect on residential buildings as in the game, Mr. Qingshu also specially asked the villagers to build small roads. build a house.

Looking at the pixel map of Cairo now, the small village can already faintly see the main and secondary arterial roads of the village in the future. The thatched houses are neatly surrounded by the roads, and the fields are also neatly distributed in the specified area next to the thatched houses.The first batch of villagers of Tottori Genji Manor settled here, and the city building plan finally showed signs of operation.

Yuan Qingshu looked at the small village that was showing signs of being a city-state, but he didn't have the lofty ambition and ambition of others. He stroked his small chin, frowned and pondered. Finally unlocked two public facilities buildings: izakaya and seafood shop.

The cherries can be harvested, and the seafood in autumn is fat, so should he build an izakaya first, or a seafood shop?

He was a kid and could only do multiple choice questions, which was a sweet annoyance.
