In this era, there is no land rights. If you plan and build it, you can build it if you want to. Then go to the government to report it and make a land deed, and these places will belong to you.

Moreover, when building a farm and opening up land, the government will not only not make things difficult for the government, but will also strongly support it, and even donate a batch of oxen and farm tools.

The dynasty had great demands on grain. Every time one acre of land was opened, a grain tax would be added. The amount of farmland each county owned, and even had an impact on the county's respect for political achievements. Therefore, local officials were supportive.

In the county town, there are too many poor families and they have a good life, so it is not difficult to recruit people.

Fang Chen praised: "Very good. As long as you do this, you will be the official butler of this gang in the county."

Tong Qian was ecstatic. Although he was doing the housekeeper's job, he still had the word "temporary generation". He was always nervous, afraid that he would be taken down at any time. You should know that the housekeeper, one of the six major forces, is definitely a big figure in the county town, how could he not have the heart?

Now that I have received the promise, my heart has finally fallen.

"Thank you, thank you, the gang leader, I will definitely get things done as soon as possible."

Fang Chen nodded, knowing that building a village is not a simple matter. There are no construction companies or contractors in this era. They need to take the personnel over first, build their own houses, and reclaim wasteland. Everything starts from scratch.

During this process, the owner is responsible for all expenses of the farmhouse until the farmland production is harvested. The farmhouse is equivalent to a small town, and it costs a lot to be completely built.

The fields that are opened will take half a year to get a harvest. This half year can be said to be pure investment and no profit. The harvest of Xinken farmland is also very limited in the first year, so it is usually rent-free in the first year, and the real income must start from the second year.

In other words, after the construction of the farm, it will take a year and a half before it can truly start to make a profit.

Therefore, except for the gentry, few forces are willing to build farms.

Fang Chen didn't care about these investments, he valued long-term and stable interests more.

He estimated that a thousand households are five people, with each person having two kilograms of grain a day, and half a year is one million.

The Fang family collected 400,000 kilograms of grain in one quarter, including the stockpile of 2,000 kilograms, and the gap was still 1.2 million kilograms.

But the Iron Fist Gang still had more than 100,000 taels of silver, and one and two hundred thousand kilograms seemed to be a lot, but only 10,000 kilograms. It was only 7,000 taels of silver, and there was no pressure at all.

For example, today, there are many large gentry families in Fuyu County. Which one does not have a certain amount of grain storage? It is not difficult to buy them all.

On the contrary, the cost of building a house may be higher, but the building materials are simple, just logging wood directly, and labor is also a farmer. But he still needs to buy the tools needed. In addition, if someone brings his family to join you, he can't let others bring everything himself and make it by himself, right? He has to buy some things for others.

There are also agricultural tools. People in the county rarely have them at home. Even if the government gives them some, they must have some ideas, and they need to buy them more.

But he estimated that 20,000 yuan would be the best, and he could afford it.

As long as the farm is built, he will get long-term and stable returns. More importantly, these farm owners will become his solid reserve force.

Different from towns, people in towns have a relationship of renting seeds, so they can still choose, such as doing business by themselves, fishing by themselves, or being unhappy with the owner's temper and going to another family to rent seeds.

However, the farm has no choice at all. The household registration will be moved to the farm, and the interests will be completely dependent on the owner's family. The life is all about the owner's family, and they can't escape even if they want to.

Just like Zhujiazhuang in "Water Margin" and Lijiazhuang, as long as the owner is willing, they can train all the merchants into Zhuang Ding. Even if they know that the Liangshan bandit army is strong and the owner wants to fight, they can only follow.

"Ma Dachang, you should take someone to watch this matter yourself, and you must not let someone come to make trouble. There are also those gamblers who are in debt, and you will only ask if you run away." Fang Chen thought for a while, the countryside was very important and felt that he should pay more attention to it.

"No!" Ma Dachang's face turned bitter. He had to work hard in the wilderness for a long time after taking on this matter, but he did not dare to object and could only respond.

Fang Chen smiled and said, "If this matter is done, I will reward you with Yu Yuan's Eight-Plane Divine Fist. If you do it, continue to practice your cloud-piercing hand."

"The gang leader is serious?" Ma Dachang was stunned and looked at him in disbelief. The Eight-step Divine Fist is Yu Yuan's unique skill in becoming famous. It is a first-class martial art in the county town. Will the gang leader take it out and reward it?

Fang Chen said without hesitation: "I promised that as long as I enter our Fang family, I can learn the best internal practice method and acquired method. Now the internal practice method has been passed on to you. As for the acquired method, which level you can learn depends on your performance."

Shortly after taking down the Iron Fist Gang, he passed on the internal practice method to Ma Dachang, but it was not the "Ba Duan Jin", but the "heart-willing hand" of the lay martial arts.

He treated Ma Dachang purely as a lay disciple, and was far less important than the people in Wanghai Town. After all, Wanghai's people were the foundation for his starting lineage and his true direct lineage.

As for acquired skills, he also plans to focus on the martial arts collected by this world.

At present, the Eight Steps Divine Fist is indeed the best technique to be collected, but so what? The upper limit is too low. Although the power is not bad, in terms of potential, it is worse than that of Wei Tuo Palm, so he really doesn't see it.

The Xinyi Pile is also the most suitable technique for lay disciples. Although the Xinyi Pile only has one action, it can evolve into twelve changes, and the twelve changes can evolve into countless possibilities.

It can be said that if you have achieved great success in practicing one method and understand all the martial arts in the world, you will be able to pick it up. Although this "picking" certainly does not include advanced martial arts, it is very suitable for the miscellaneous techniques collected by the outside world.

It is said that "the world's martial arts are entered into Shaolin." No one knows how many foreign martial arts Shaolin has collected. I guess the Shaolin monks are confused by so many martial arts, let alone all of them are proficient in teaching lay disciples.

Therefore, relying on your intentions, as long as you practice it, you can get the most skilled skills and use them directly, which is very easy to use.

"Don't worry, the leader of the gang, I will do my job properly!" Ma Dachang heard that the gang leader was not happy to find him, and was surprised and happy, and immediately patted his chest to promise.

Fang Chen nodded with a smile, turned to Niu Gang, and said, "How long will it take to reach the peak of divine power?"

"It's fastest to one month, and it's slower to two months." Niu Gang said in a deep voice.

After the previous foundation was consumed, his and Zhang brothers' practice speed had slowed down. Even with the assistance of tonic medicinal food and medicinal materials, the progress was far worse than that of the beginning. Fortunately, it was finally over.
