Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 37: Xia Town
"Well, here is the one hundred taels of gold you want, and some are silver taels."
Two villagers from Xiaozhu Village carried a wooden box over and opened it. Inside was Chutian's favorite gold and silver, worth a total of one hundred taels of gold.
In "Lord", in order to prevent the lord from doing the complicated conversion in ancient times, one tael = 50 grams.
One hundred taels of gold is 5 kilograms. If it is converted into one thousand taels of silver, it is 50 kilograms, which is equivalent to the weight of a bag of rice.
"It's only half a day, where did you get one hundred taels of gold?"
"It's very simple. We have a bank in Xiaozhu Village, and I misappropriated the villagers' deposits without permission. The reason why I ask you for interest is because the bank will pay interest to the villagers after one year. If the principal and Interest, there may be a riot in Xiaozhu Village.”
"It turns out..."
Chu Tian was relieved, no wonder Xiaozhu Village could take out one hundred taels of gold at once.
A villager produces a tael of silver, and 1,000 villagers have a thousand taels of silver. That's the power of financing.
"Of course, 10 taels of gold are my personal investment, and the interest of 10% a year is quite cost-effective."
This guy completely treats the cooperation between villages as a business.
Borrowing money is the second priority. The main purpose this time is to turn Xiaozhu Village into a vassal village as soon as the town is upgraded.
The prosperity of vassal villages also counts towards the town.
"With this 100 gold, Xia Village can be upgraded to a first-level town at any time. There are four vassal villages in a first-level town. Once Xiaozhu Village is merged with Xia Town, your lord status will disappear. As compensation, you can make any conditions. If the conditions are appropriate, I will agree."
Chutian went straight to the point.
The other party is a person with an economical mind, not a vase, so there is no need to detour.
"It's very simple. After I lose my lordship, I need a job, and the salary cannot be less than 12 taels of silver per month."
"It's that simple?"
"Hmm."
Xia Xia Liang takes retreat as advance, but instead makes Chu Tian owe a favor.
To obtain a large village with a population of more than 1,000 and buildings that Xia Village does not have, you only need to pay 12 taels of silver every month, and earn blood.
"How about you still serve as the mayor of Xiaozhu Village and take care of the town's market before the town's direct jurisdiction expands to Xiaozhu Village?"
Chutian has Li Kui as a farm official, and lacks an official to manage the market and trade.
"The village chief and the city cadre have two jobs, and the salary is also calculated according to the two jobs."
Xia Xian Liang said very seriously.
"No problem."
Chu Tian agreed.
Finally, someone helps manage the market, and Chutian can be the hands-off shopkeeper again.
The lord only needs to know a little about everything. How to operate it. The officials below will try their best to do everything for the lord. After all, their political achievements are linked to their salary.
Chu Tian is interested in what Xia Xia Liang has learned: "What do you do in reality?"
"Student."
"Which university?"
“Capital University Business School.”
“…”
When "Lord" was born, the country in the Eastern Han Dynasty in reality was already the world's most powerful country, and Capital University was the world's number one university. It is not surprising that students coming out of Capital University's business school have economic acumen.
"Hurry up and upgrade to the town. In the past few days, dozens of lords in the Eastern Han district have upgraded their villages one after another. After you upgrade to the town, you can see the specific situation of Xiaozhu Village."
The cool summer urges Chutian.
"Okay."
Chutian received the financial support of 100 taels of gold, and with confidence, brought Xia Liang to the core of Xia Village.
Soon Xia Village will transition from a Tier 3 village to a town.
The difference between towns and villages is that towns can have vassal villages. The higher the level, the more villages the town can control.
If you reach the city level, you can control towns and villages within a certain range without limiting the number, and your influence will be greater.
"Upgrade Xia Village to Xia Town."
Chutian followed the first echelon.
The ground of Xia Village shook violently, and the direct-administered territory expanded violently to the periphery!
The lord's mansion has also undergone earth-shaking changes, and it has become a four-entry courtyard with red bricks and green tiles, which already belongs to the deep house compound.
Xia Xia Liang and Xia Village officials in the lord's mansion watched the miracle happen in amazement.
The lord's mansion at the town level has finally become imposing, and it is very different from ordinary houses.
The lord's stele has become stronger, and it will take a lot of time to destroy the stele.
"Ding! Congratulations, you have become the 52nd lord in the Eastern Han District with a first-level town, and you will be rewarded with a gold-level recruitment order."
"Ding! After judging, the player's town development direction is a military town, and you will obtain a special building secondary arsenal and a third-level bow and arrow camp."
"Ding! Achievement system - 'The Troubled World' series of achievements open -"
"The B-level achievement 'Lord of a County' is available. Control a county within two years, and you can get special rewards."
"The A-level achievement 'Prefect of a County' is now available. You can control a county (country) within five years, and you can get special rewards."
"The S-level achievement 'One Party's Princes' is open, and you can control a state within ten years, and you can get special rewards."
"The SS level achievement 'Three Points of the World' is now available, you can control the four states within 20 years, you can get special rewards~IndoMTL.com~ level achievement 'Unify the thirteen states' is open, unify the Eastern Han region, and there is no time limit , you can get special rewards."
Xia Village was upgraded to a first-level town. Before Chu Tian had time to check the properties of the first-level town, a series of achievement tasks started.
These achievements are all too difficult.
The simplest achievement is "The Chief of a County".
A county in the Eastern Han District is not small at all.
The Xuzhou provincial governor has five counties under its jurisdiction, namely Donghai County and Guangling County, as well as Xiapi Country, Langye Country, and Pengcheng Country.
Among them, Langya has thirteen counties.
What is this concept? The area of a county in "Lord" varies from a few thousand square kilometers to tens of thousands of square kilometers, and there is even a county of 100,000 square kilometers.
I have to say that the Eastern Han District is really too big. The territory of the Eastern Han District is 25 times that of Dongying District, 33 times that of Annan District, and 44 times that of Goryeo District.
Just a big state can compete with a civilized area.
Anyway, this achievement series is too difficult.
Not to mention that occupying a county in Xuzhou will offend Tao Qian, the prefect of Xuzhou, especially Zang Ba, who controls Langya.
The achievement task is obviously more difficult than other tasks.
It is said that in a year's time, in addition to opening the borders of the civilized area, the various princes of the Three Kingdoms will officially become active.
Now each lord considers the player lords within his sphere of influence as his own by default, but this will not be the case in a year.
Xuzhou where Chutian is located is not bad, those lords in the sphere of influence of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Jian will be hell-level difficulty.
Chu Tian ignored the extremely difficult achievement mission for the time being, but checked the attributes of Xia Town and turned Xiaozhu Village into a vassal village.
