At the banquet, Wang Bin made it very clear that this was a special treat because it was their first time working together. All future transactions would be conducted at the market, and they would have to bring their own food. Although the two were unwilling, they dared not object.
Wang Bin knew about the history of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the Tang Dynasty was powerful and the surrounding vassal states came to pay tribute. Each time, they brought their special products to Chang'an as tribute. In order to show the grandeur of a great power, the Tang Dynasty gave these tribute-givers several times more items than they had paid tribute. This led to these vassal states coming to pay tribute every now and then.
It must be said that this opened up trade channels for the Tang Dynasty, allowing more foreigners to come to the Tang Dynasty to trade. However, as time went on, the Tang Dynasty could no longer tolerate these tribute payers, so it made a clear stipulation that tribute could only be paid once every so many years.
Wang Bin didn't want Deza and Akun to get away with bringing a large group of people to his place to freeload, so it was better to discuss this beforehand.
From now on, when trading at the market, they will no longer need to go into the valley, and there will be no need to entertain them.
Since Yege took over Fuzhou, the residents of Fuzhou have been living a very difficult life. They all miss the days when Wang Bin was around. That period can be said to be the golden age of Fuzhou. He revitalized the entire market in Fuzhou and made many people no longer worry about food.
After Wang Bin led his men to kill Ye Ge, many people wanted to join him. During the time Wang Bin returned to the real world, Uncle Li also spread the news of their location, and now people are gradually heading here.
In order to enable these people to be self-reliant, Uncle Li has come up with a plan: to provide them with free accommodation, to give them some tasks in the early stages, and to obtain food and other supplies by completing the tasks. He will also allocate some land to them so that they can grow crops.
Moreover, no tax will be levied for the first two years. Only in the third year will a tax of 10% per mu (unit of land area) be levied as estimated. The tax rate will remain at 10% every year thereafter, and there will be absolutely no increase in tax revenue.
If the majority of the food is left to them, these people will be able to trade their surplus crops with others, and everyone's lives will improve.
Upon hearing about this policy, many people in Fuzhou rushed over here.
Of course, some people wanted to stay in Fuzhou. After all, Wang Bin had defeated all the gangs in Fuzhou, and now that they had lost their power, they could become the bosses again.
Alternatively, they could cultivate fertile land and then bring the harvest over to Wang Bin for trading.
One advantage of working with Wang Bin is that their safety is guaranteed, whereas he has no control over what might happen elsewhere.
The farmland is concentrated on both sides of the river outside the valley. Each plot of land is the same size. As for what to plant, you can do whatever you want, as long as you can grow valuable crops and pay taxes in the third year.
Of course, you can't plant as much as you want. Initially, the allocation is based on the number of people. Once things stabilize, the amount of farmland will continue to expand. If you want to increase your holdings, you can then purchase additional land.
Currently, since it's just starting out, everyone doesn't have many magic cores. Once this place becomes the most prosperous trading hub in the area, magic cores will be as readily available as they were in Fuzhou back then.
Wang Bin doesn't need to worry about these things; Uncle Li and Uncle Zhang are enough. His task is simply to lead everyone to continuously improve their strength.
So during this time, he taught everyone martial arts. After finishing their work, everyone would come to the square to practice.
During this period, he mainly taught everyone internal skills. There was no other way; the best way for him to improve his strength now was to increase his internal energy. The higher his internal energy was, the more powerful his qi shield and the moves he had just developed would become.
To encourage the new residents to learn his internal martial arts, Wang Bin demonstrated his qi shield and qi bullets at a gathering. The effect was excellent, and many people signed up to learn.
To get more people to help him gain experience points, Wang Bin offered to teach him for free this time.
Previously, when he was studying in Fuzhou, Wang Bin had to charge a fee. Now, the teaching is free. However, this preferential policy is only applicable to residents living here. If people from other places want to learn, they will have to pay a symbolic fee. This way, they will cherish the opportunity and work harder to improve their skills, which will also help him gain more experience.
Others rely on consuming magic cores to increase their strength, but now it's hard to find zombies in the vicinity, so everyone's cultivation speed is very slow. Instead, they can only learn cultivation techniques like Wang Bin.
Last time, although Wang Bin obtained more than 300,000 ordinary magic cores, he only had Guan Xiaoyue upgrade her superpower by one level and did not upgrade her magic core level. This was because upgrading by one level consumed 100,000 ordinary magic cores, and the second level required 15 magic cores according to Guan Xiaoyue's calculations. Now that magic cores were scarce, he could only let her take a break for the time being.
After Guan Xiaoyue raised her superpower level by one level, all her physical stats improved significantly. She is now extremely fast, and many people can only see a shadow of her. According to her estimate, with her current strength, she could kill Ye Ge within ten moves. Her growth is terrifying.
Guan Xiaoyue was also helping Wang Bin hone his martial arts skills. Perhaps because she had become a King-level superhuman, her learning speed was several times faster than others, giving Wang Bin a lot of experience.
As a result, Wang Bin's strength continued to grow every day. The thought that his strength would keep increasing even if he didn't cultivate made him sometimes wake up laughing in his dreams at night.
After sending Deza and Akun away, Wang Bin had nothing to do except teach martial arts every day, so he had a relatively leisurely time.
