Chapter 44: Territory business model

As soon as Lasvia reached the mountain pass, he was stopped. However, when he learned that Lasvia was coming, Li Zhi had sent someone to greet him, but nothing else happened. "His Highness Lasvia, Lord Winster has prepared a dinner, please come with me." The one who came to greet Li Zhi's guard leader and former Iron Wolf leader Aris.

"Winster didn't come to greet him in person?" When encountering this situation, Lasvia was also a little angry and sent someone to welcome the princess. This was unimaginable in her eyes. Even if the former King Candras met the neighboring royal family, he should send an important person to greet him. This is how Winster treated the princess of the Kingdom of Westerma?

Li Zhi didn't come to greet him but was not looking down on him. But now his affairs in the territory are too busy. From lords to officials, no one is busy from morning to night, and it is dark. If he wants to mobilize troops to come to greet him, which will delay the construction of the territory and the sowing of wheat, it will be a big deal. So he sent Aris over. Aris was his guard leader and a high-level wizard, and his weight was no longer light.

Li Zhi's other meaning is very obvious. Not coming to greet him in person is to show his attitude. This is the Dominion, not the little lord under the Westerma royal family. I have never heard of the princess visiting him. The Patriarch of the Sakalam Church greeted him in person. If he came in person, he would lower his identity and lose Heradim's face.

Lasvia's little complaint was just a moment. When she found out that she was coming to greet a high-level elemental wizard of gods and demons, she was in a much better mood. The strongest paladin in her team was only a third-level high-level, but she was the Westma royal family. Winster was just a lord who started from scratch. It was already surprising that she was able to send a third-level elemental wizard.

"This wizard may be from the family power of Mrs. Winster in the East Continent." Lasvia guessed. Soon, the door of the guard post opened. Lasvia looked at the soldiers, all of whom were ordinary people, but they were very full of energy. Whether in their standing posture or style, they felt that they were not an ordinary soldier but a royal guard of honor, which was very surprising.

After passing through the camp behind the checkpoint, the next step was to go downhill. At this time, Lasvia found that the road was much easier to walk on. Although it was still inevitable to bump, the road was repaired and the road surface was much smoother. There was a layer of pebbles on it, mixed with mud and formed into slabs and crushed. It was a good road. Li Zhi attached great importance to traffic. In addition to water transportation, land transportation was not spared. However, this road was first repaired because it was a mud-corrosive road and the number of people was superior, so it was still very fast.

The ox cart was moving down the hillside, and Lasvia could see the rough shape of a small plain in the mountains from the mountain. What she saw in front of her was very different from what she imagined. She originally thought that Winster's territory was not much different than the poorest territory, but at this time, it looked completely different.

This is the territory that will be built a month later. When the power of 100,000 labor is fully utilized, the power it can show is beyond everyone's imagination. Every day's change is enough to make everyone stunned. Aris almost watched this small plain change from the original forest to this appearance. When he recalls, he feels incredible, let alone outsiders?

"Master Aris, when you came here, it was really just a forest?" Lasvia couldn't believe what she saw before her. Where was the forest at the foot of the mountain? More than a dozen or twenty dirt houses were a small village. Countless fertile fields were reclaimed from this center, and the road traffic between villages had been improved. At this time, civilians working everywhere were returning to the built collective dormitories one after another.

Of course, Aris is not a master, but a high-level one. Calling a master is naturally a honorary title. "Yes, when we came here, it was still a forest. His Highness Lasvia, you would be even more surprised if you went to the central town of the territory." Listening to Lasvia's amazement, Aris also felt a sense of pride in his heart. By this time, he had already regarded himself as a part of this territory.

"I'm very looking forward to it." Lasvia calmed down his surprise. The vehicle kept heading towards the center of the town. Soon after, they got off the hillside and arrived at the nearest village. Lasvia also began to look at the village carefully. At this time, the village was just a simple construction, mainly for resettlement. Thousands of villagers lived in more than twenty wooden houses. This wooden house was a gift from the lord. Only when everything in the territory was on track would Li Zhi consider their own house.

Li Zhi's daily labor is not free in the construction of villages. How can free labor allow them to keep their energy full of energy and devote themselves to their labor every day? First of all, food and accommodation belong to the lord, and grain seeds and farm tools are also provided by the lord. They only provide labor, but they can get 40% of the output of farming in the future.

In fact, Li Zhi's approach is even more Huang Shiren than Huang Shiren in the main world, but here it is already a good rule, because other territories collect taxes more ruthlessly. 70% of the food tax, civilians have to take care of their own food and accommodation, but he only charges 60% of the food and accommodation, and civilians also provide food and accommodation.

With this, civilians don’t have to worry about famine or freeze to death without a house, because the lord keeps them, and then half of the food they collect will be theirs. What a good rule? Moreover, the conditions for eating and accommodation are already good now. In the future, if you have surplus grain in your hands, you can change it to money and build your own house, and the money for accommodation will be subsidized. What will happen in the future? Even the stupidest civilians can imagine it. Compared with their previous life, their enthusiasm has been mobilized.

Li Zhi's management of the territory is completely modern corporate management. He is a big boss, and the branch managers who came down to manage are small bosses. In addition to their fixed salary, other bonuses are also linked to the output of the territory. Two percent of the 60% of the grain tax revenue are retained by the local government, and the rest will be paid. This makes these managers want higher incomes, not to scrap money from the civilians, but to find ways to make the source of this income larger. The main task of the central government is to arrange overall coordination, conduct macro-control, and then do a good job of supervision.

Here, although he belongs to his own dominion, he fully decentralized his power, linked his personal income to regional achievements, and stimulated people's enthusiasm with the word "benefit". However, this point has led him to step beyond this era. The reason why he is a small step beyond the times is very simple. A small step beyond the times is superman, and a big step beyond the times is a madman.

Just say that the 60% grain tax is set in this position for a reason. The taxes of the mainland aristocrats are 70% or 60%. If you rashly put them to 30%, then it is challenging the entire continental aristocratic system. At that time, the entire human aristocratic power will be enough for him to eat. The ideals of the future are very full, and the reality of the backbone must also be taken step by step, but it is impossible to become fat in one breath.

The right to manage is decentralized, but the real gun is always in your own hands. In addition, judicial law enforcement, financial supervision, promotion of ideas and beliefs, and cultivating talents are also the direction Li Zhi is in charge. As long as these key points are firmly grasped, everything is in your own hands and cannot be out of the way.

When Lasvia arrived, the village was eating. At this time, it settled down. Li Zhi's gold was sold. Fatty companies in the main world were ready to start. The expected money spent on almost no business circles to supply these civilians' food consumption was just a small matter, so their food was also much better.

Originally, one meal was spent on a lot of energy every day, but it was not enough. I changed it to two meals. Although it was still sweet potatoes, I have eaten too many sweet potatoes and have also played with various tricks about sweet potatoes. At this time, the village made sweet potatoes and occasionally some meat could be seen in the soup. They were the rats, rabbits and other wild game they caught while working.

"It smells so good, what do they eat?" Lasvia smelled the aroma from the air. "It was a new grain crop developed by the Lord, called sweet potato. It tastes very delicious. It is also grown in our territory." Aris replied. Who doesn't know sweet potatoes until now in Li Zhi's territory?

"Druids, I have heard that the druids of the Salva Black Forest are good at agriculture. Now it seems that they are really good. If the kingdom has the druids, the agriculture alone can be greatly improved." Lasvia thought: "Can I try one?" She asked Aris. "Yes, Hassan, the person in charge of the matter asked for a bowl of sweet potatoes." Aris ordered, and soon, the iron wolf came back with a bowl, which contained soup and two slices of sweet potatoes.

Lasvia looked at the bowl in her hand. This bowl was not a wooden bowl used by ordinary people or silverware used by nobles. The material of this bowl was never seen by Lasvia. The bottom of the bowl was engraved with the word "Li" and there was a strange heraldry on it, which was a natural heraldry designed by Li Zhi. This bowl is actually the most ordinary bowl in the main world, and was distributed by Li Zhi to use it for government officials below to distinguish classes. The heraldry was indirectly collected from faith.

Suppressing his suspicion, Lasvia used one of the two "wooden strips" sent with a bowl and a piece of sweet potato to put it to her mouth and took it carefully. She immediately felt very delicious and put the whole sweet potato in her mouth. "It's really delicious. I didn't expect that the civilians here could eat so well."

After eating the sweet potatoes, Lasvia returned the bowl and continued to set off the road. At this time, some villages were slowly reclamation progressing, and they were still working. When they passed by, Lasvia's attention was quickly focused on the farm tools used by the civilians. It was a farm tools made of steel. It was not a cow when plowing the ground. A man could plow the ground quickly with his weight and pull it back quickly. The plow easily broke the soil, so that several people could plow all the land quickly.

As soon as the ground was plowed, someone came over with seeds, and the people who plowed the land quickly changed the fields and walked over.
