"Third, half an hour a day is too short to train anything. If you want to build a self-defense team in a short period of time, you need to train for at least an hour a day. What do you think?"
Cui Fangzheng was indeed in a dilemma regarding time.
He looked embarrassed and pursed his lips.
"Brother Yunfei, I also want everyone to practice more, but look at the situation right now. Everyone's been getting up early and going to the mountains late. Some people even live there to collect mountain products. They're scrambling to earn more. Everyone's eager to make money right now, so it's already very difficult to get them to spend half an hour training every day. If it takes longer, I'm afraid they'll be too dissatisfied and start a fight."
In this regard, Xiao Yunfei took a tough stance and refused to compromise.
He said coldly.
"This is the time to test your abilities. As the head of Fengtou Village, if you can't even resolve this matter and convince the villagers, I'll have to reconsider some things."
The "some things" that Xiao Yunfei mentioned are probably not just about military training, but may also involve collecting mountain products and micro-tillage machines.
Fengtou Village is what it is today thanks to Xiao Yunfei's family. If Xiao Yunfei is disappointed with him as the village head, it will probably trigger many chain reactions and cause serious consequences.
Just when Cui Fangzheng was hesitating, he heard Xiao Yunfei say again.
"It's easy to conquer a kingdom, but it's hard to keep it. Judging from the current situation, it's easy to make the villagers rich. You've already seen the results. It won't be long before everyone in our village can build new houses and live a good life. Do you believe it?"
Of course he believes that the villagers can live a good life.
During this period, almost every household earned more money than they had earned in the previous decades combined. As the village head, he could see the improvement in everyone's living standards.
Cui Fangzheng said quickly.
"I believe it, Brother Yunfei, please continue."
Xiao Yunfei closed his eyes and spoke again.
"I don't need to tell you how many people in Ningguta are starving. It's fine when everyone is poor, but once some people become rich, the evil of human nature will be revealed. If our village doesn't have a strong team to protect it, then the money that the people of Fengtou Village work hard to earn will be wasted."
Xiao Yunfei observed Cui Fangzheng's expression, paused for a moment and continued.
"Money is a good thing. It not only helps you live a good life, but it can also bring disaster."
"You are an old man from Ningguta. You know best whether people from other villages are willing to kill for money. If you lose your life, you lose everything."
"Practicing for half an hour longer every day, having all your money taken away, or even losing your life. You decide for yourself which one to choose. I don't need to explain which is more important, right?"
Xiao Yunfei spoke with the attitude of a superior and in a condescending tone.
"Anyway, I'm capable of protecting myself and my family and wealth. Do you think the rest of the village can?"
After Xiao Yunfei finished speaking, Cui Fangzheng's expression changed again and again.
Cui Fangzheng also knew that people from other villages were unreliable.
At present, all villages are still in a wait-and-see state. Most people do not believe that their village can become rich. They think that even if their village can develop, it is just temporary luck and may not work after a while.
Everyone was already eyeing them with concern, and with Wang Shouxin constantly stirring up trouble, it was probably only a matter of time before those villages united and came to attack them.
If he wasn't worried about these things, he wouldn't have asked Xiao Yunfei for help in training the troops.
Cui Fangzheng hesitated for a moment and then spoke.
"Okay, I'll practice for an hour, Brother Yunfei, I promise you."
At worst, the villagers can sleep less and earn a little less money, which is better than having the money they have worked so hard to earn taken away by others.
Seeing that Cui Fangzheng had figured it out, Xiao Yunfei raised the corner of his mouth with satisfaction. He patted Cui Fangzheng on the shoulder and said.
"It's settled then. When are you going to start training?"
Xiao Yunfei was a little impatient, but he concealed it very well. His tone and expression did not reveal what he was thinking.
Cui Fangzheng raised his eyes and said.
"I want to organize a fishing trip tomorrow. We've been busy for so long, I'm worried they're exhausted. I want to use this opportunity to let everyone take a break and eat some fish to replenish their bodies. How about this, I'll call everyone to the village tomorrow night and hold a meeting to discuss the training?"
No wonder Cui Fangzheng said before that he would let the armored men go up the mountain to collect mountain products starting the day after tomorrow. It turned out that he had already planned to organize the villagers to go fishing tomorrow.
A day or two late doesn't matter.
Xiao Yunfei opened his mouth and responded.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
He paused and continued.
"If they don't agree to the training, you can consider linking the training with the micro-tillage machine and selling mountain products. The people of Ningguta are easier to manage, right?"
The people in Ningguta are indeed easy to manage because they are all prisoners.
However, Cui Fangzheng heard another meaning from Xiao Yunfei's words.
Is Xiao Yunfei taking this opportunity to criticize him because of what he just said that the villagers would cause trouble if the training time was too long?
Serving the king is like serving a tiger.
Although Xiao Yunfei is not a king, he sometimes gives him the feeling of a king, and his emotions and decisions are often unpredictable.
And that natural sense of intimidation often sent chills down his spine.
Cui Fangzheng blushed with embarrassment and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, Brother Yunfei, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to convince them so that they will willingly train with you and ensure that nothing goes wrong."
Xiao Yunfei gave Cui Fangzheng a slap in the face and then a sweet date. He hit Cui Fangzheng with his fist and said in a joking tone.
