Chapter 3 The first batch of villagers
After Zhang Hua waited for a long time, Liu Xiucai finally found a group of timid refugees in the mountains and forests and took them to Xia Village.
"There are 56 households and 148 people in total, including about 70 strong men. They heard that there is food in the village, and they are willing to settle in the village."
Liu Xiucai counted the number of people and couldn't help but sigh.
"On average, there are less than three people in each household."
After listening to the number of people reported by Liu Xiucai, Zhang Hua felt it was a bit outrageous.
In ancient rural areas, there was a lot of children and good fortune. Under normal circumstances, each family would not have only a family of three.
Liu Xiucai shook his head repeatedly: "At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing soldiers entered the pass, natural disasters and man-made disasters, and people were living in poverty. There were still a hundred people in our village, which was already considered good."
"well."
Zhang Hua sighed, Liu Xiucai was in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, which were also in troubled times.
There are only 20 thatched houses in Xia Village, which can accommodate 20 families. Liu Xiucai brought back 56 families, so 36 thatched houses have to be built.
If we want to absorb all the population that travels to this valley, Zhang Hua believes that a village is far from enough.
The place Zhang Hua discovered was only a small part of the valley.
Fortunately, thatched houses can be sourced locally and are built at a very fast speed.
"You are responsible for building thatched houses, and as for you, build fishing and hunting huts by the river."
Zhang Hua divided 70 strong men into two batches.
In addition to the thatched houses they live in, Zhang Hua gave priority to building fishing and hunting huts.
【Drawings】: Fishing and Hunting House
【Level】: Level 1 Production Building
[Function]: Making fishing and hunting tools such as rafts, fishing nets, etc. to improve the fisherman's proficiency in life skills.
【Construction Cost】: 10 taels of silver, 10 units of wood
[Construction time]: The more labor is invested, the faster the construction speed is, the maximum 10 labor is invested, and the fastest is 6 hours.
The specialty of Xia Village is carp. There is a fishing and hunting hut that can improve the efficiency of fishing among Xia Village villagers.
In the most difficult early stages, no crop output is enough, fishing and hunting are a way to replenish food.
"It's a pity that there is not much salt in the granary, otherwise the fish can be pickled for winter."
Liu Xiucai was frowning.
Xia Village was poor and was supported by 1,000 stones of grain from the granary and gold and silver scavenged from the Eight Banners Cavalry.
There are still many things to consider, and Liu Xiucai is already considering how to spend the winter.
Salt, a seasoning that ordinary people in the 21st century did not pay attention to. In ancient times, salt and iron were strategic materials, strictly controlled by the government and operated by the salt and iron.
Xia Village also needs to consider getting salt and iron. In short, there are so many things that need to get on the right track step by step.
The strong men who are responsible for building fishing and hunting huts will first cut down wood, and then use wood to build fishing and hunting huts.
Ordinary strong men have life skills such as primary collection, primary logging, and primary fishing.
If you accumulate experience, you can upgrade to intermediate collection, advanced collection, special collection, and god-level collection.
The higher the level of life skills, the higher the efficiency.
Civilians who travel through time will affect the level of their initial life skills.
For example, when a blacksmith travels over, the initial life skill is advanced forging or special forging.
When the fishermen traveled over, their initial life skills were at least intermediate fishing skills.
The thatched house is built very quickly and is completed faster than the fishing and hunting hut.
Zhang Hua asked the strong men to go fishing again.
The villagers cut the branches and used them to make fish by the river, barely using them.
The river has a very rich fishery product, and these strong men actually caught dozens of fish.
It seems that although it is impossible to produce much grain in the first year, the prey in the wild has not been overhunted and is quite abundant.
As night fell, more than a hundred villagers who survived the disaster gathered in front of the administrative wooden house and set up a bonfire.
After spending most of the busy day, they can finally have a full meal.
"The granary is the most important building. Six strong men are arranged to be divided into three shifts and guard them day and night."
Zhang Hua attached great importance to the granary and specially selected strong men to guard the guards.
Without food, these villagers will not devote themselves to their lives.
"We can only survive in troubled times by being taken in by the village chief. We are willing to do our best to subsidize our family's plans."
More than a dozen women and girls took the initiative to ask for work.
Men farmed and women weaved, and women from ordinary families in ancient times also had to work.
These women came from the late Ming Dynasty.
During the Ming Dynasty, female textile workers could be seen everywhere in the Jiangnan region.
"A female doctor, two tailors, eleven textile workers. She also needs to raise silkworms and plant cotton to produce fabric..."
Among these women, only female doctors are currently useful. Before women with textile workers obtain raw materials for textiles, they are hard for a good cook to cook without rice.
"The village chief, the little girl knows how to raise silkworms, which can solve this problem, but it takes a lot of time."
A woman with the life skills of "silk cultivation" volunteered.
Zhang Hua remembered that these refugees were originally a village with a self-sufficiency small peasant system. If these people change places, as long as they do not encounter natural disasters and man-made disasters, they should not starve to death.
"These people raise silkworms with you."
"Next, it's time to arrange some people to reclaim wasteland, otherwise if they miss the farming time, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Zhang Hua arranged for the villagers to perform their duties and make Xia Village run smoothly as soon as possible.
Liu Qisu, an old scholar in the late Ming Dynasty, knew the abilities of various villagers and helped Zhang Hua to deploy labor and collect important materials such as seeds, iron tools, salt and other important materials carried by the villagers during their journey.
As the village chief, Zhang Hua can see the abilities of various heroes who settled in Xia Village.
【Hero】: Liu Qisu
[Commander]:41 [Military power]:17 [Intellect]:65 [Politics]:61
[Awakening Talent]: Deciding Things (Improving the ability to decide on various matters)
[Article]: A scholar in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen.
Zhang Hua had never heard of such a person in history. However, in ancient times, except for kings, princes, generals and ministers, they were more ordinary people. Liu Qisu was just one of the scholars, and he was only a scholar at an age. He also encountered Qing soldiers entering the pass, which was an old unlucky guy.
Liao Hua sat aside, recovering from his injuries, but no one dared to underestimate Liao Hua.
Liao Hua was already a general when he came through.
The general died in a hundred battles, and those who could survive were not simple characters. Liao Hua's eyes were full of murderous aura.
【Hero】: Liao Hua
[Commander]: 76 [Military power]: 78 [Intellect]: 67 [Politics]: 49
【Health volume】: 150
【Attack】: 20~30
【Defense】: 5
【Agility】: 7
【Awakening Talent】: Become stronger as you get older (the older you get stronger)
[Can recruit troops]: Shuhan light infantry (a kind of light infantry specializing in mountain combat)
[Article]: General of Shu Han, Prime Minister joined the army.
The strong men in the village seemed to dare not approach the murderous Liao Hua.
Liao Hua didn't pay attention to the ordinary people in the village and was still a little confused.
Knowing that Shu Han was destroyed in his lifetime was a heavy blow to Liao Hua.
Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and other Shu Han figures may have traveled to this world at a certain time point.
But this continent is too large, and Liao Hua didn't know where to go if he wanted to find Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and others.
Moreover, this is an unprecedented chaotic world. If you are not lucky, you may be killed by bandits in history.
The next day, Zhang Hua was awakened by the noise outside the village.
Liu Xiucai hurried in: "The village chief, a group of refugees came from outside the village. When they saw smoke from cooking in the village, they wanted to enter the village. Moreover, there were a few soldiers."
Are there refugees? And soldiers?
