Chapter 447 [Almost reaching the Arctic Circle]
Xue Wei was amused. He hadn't expected these people to have such quick thinking. "Of course, we very much welcome people like you who can work two jobs. The more you work, the more you earn!"
After distributing breakfast and announcing the reward and punishment system, the "New Employee Mobilization Meeting" ended.
Xue Wei left a message before leaving: "If you find anyone around you trying to escape or doing something that's detrimental to team unity, you can report them with evidence and earn points and food rewards."
This sentence made the bandits fall into deep thought.
As the saying goes, the collapse must start from within. These bandits originally gathered together for profit, and now their camp has begun to loosen.
After breakfast, Old Doctor Qi stood aside and listened to everything Xue Wei and Guan Yue said. He was quite surprised.
He knew that these young people were not simple, but he didn't expect that they were so proficient in the art of manipulating people, and could use points to cancel prison sentences, and catch bandits along the way. These seemed to be beyond the power of Xue Wei, the magistrate of Jingshui County. Moreover, they only brought so few people with them now. What if there were more and more members of the labor reform team and they couldn't beat them?
Old Doctor Qi was full of doubts, but at the same time he became more and more interested in what this type of young people were going to do.

After breakfast, Zhang Tongban was sent to the village ahead to carry out a mission. No one knew how many people this top-selling swindler could trick into working as laborers for them this time.
After resting in Menghu Village for half a day, the team set off in the afternoon and arrived at Jinyinzhai.
Zhang Tongban is indeed a smart man. Although Jinyinzhai is far away from the official road and the road leading to the village is tortuous, its location is hidden. Many wells are dug along the road. The water level of the wells is not low and the water is very clear, indicating that there is sufficient groundwater here.
The fertility of the land enclosed in Jinyin Village was significantly higher than that of Menghu Village, and it covered approximately 300 mu. However, after hearing about the yield from the land, Xue Wei and Guan Yue both exclaimed that the land was being wasted.
In ancient times, farming was rough, especially in the remote villages of the northwest. Three hundred acres of land could barely support a village of seventy or so people. Furthermore, these bandits didn't rely on farming for their livelihood, so they had little interest in farming knowledge.
Summer is clearly the season when wheat matures in the northwest region, but the wheat in the Jinyinzhai fields grows sparsely and is grayish-yellow in color. It is obvious that the quality is not very good.
After recording the situation of Jinyinzhai one by one and sending it to the group, the grassland Khan Yan Chaoyue responded.
@Yan Chaoyue: We in the Bol Grassland have already started to plant sea rice after we got the sea rice samples from Li Li, and I have also trained a group of experienced herders.
We're closer than waiting for He Linxiaoxiao and the others to arrive. How about I send a group over first? Let's start planting sea rice early!]
@Guan Yue (The Escort Agency's No. 1 Sister): It's definitely faster, but isn't it dangerous? You grassland people look different from the Dasheng people, and even if you can speak Mandarin, you have an accent.
@Yan Chaoyue: Do you still remember the Xin Clan Army? After sending the first batch of Xin Clan Army back to Xin Che, Xin Ningyu and I have found hundreds of Xin Clan Army soldiers in the northern border and other places over the past six months.
Some of them have used this skill to become mountain kings in the northwest border and the northern border.
Everyone in the group was very happy to hear the good news.
@Xue Wei: Yeah, I heard from Li Li that when the Xin family army was being hunted down in the northern border, they numbered nearly 10,000 men, so many must have survived. Once I'm in charge and Cheng Jiayu and I are able to contact these Xin family soldiers, we'll probably find a few more!
Jiang Lili was also excited when she heard the news. [Thank you, I thank everyone on behalf of Xin Che~]
@Guan Yue: We are truly happy to be able to help these soldiers who fought so hard to defend the border and were tragically stabbed in the back!
@Yan Chaoyue: Yes, and it's not certain who will help whom. I still need to rely on Xin Ningyu and the big brothers of the Xin family army to lead me.
@Xue Wei (Study Committee Member): If we had the Xin family army's help, things would be much easier for us!
@Yan Chaoyue: By the way, @Jiang Lili, could you please continue to send us some down jackets, heat pads, and other cold-weather supplies?
@Jiang Lili: Sure, but isn't it summer now? Have you run out of the supplies we gave you for the first half of the year?
@Yan Chaoyue: No, it's just that while the weather is warm in the summer, our Valkyrie Xin Ningyu is almost leading her men to the Arctic Circle. Winter comes early near the Arctic Circle, and we now have nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, which is a lot of people. I'm just preparing for a rainy day.
By the way, Xiaopang @张小胖, can you please ask the organization what crops or production activities are suitable for the Arctic Circle?
@Su Rui (An archaeologist who loves to read novels: Plant corn! Build nuclear bombs!)
@Jiang Lili: Arctic Circle? 100,000? Such a niche term!
@Yan Chaoyue: Sorry, I'm one step ahead~ This Khan has an innate advantage. Starting with my tribe, I already have 50,000 strong and powerful grassland men. Plus, my wife's reputation as a female warrior goddess is far-reaching, and many people have come to join her. And the prisoners of war from every battle have snowballed, easily accumulating over 100,000~]
It can be seen that Master Yan has become much more confident with Xin Ningyu's guidance. Who would have thought that a year ago he was still a Khan with kidney deficiency who trembled with fear when his subordinates toasted him?
@Jiang Lili: It seems our South China Sea, Northwest China, and Beijing teams need to step up their game!
@Sheng Zhixing (League Secretary): Immediately! Wait until all of Nanzhao's troops are assembled! Our next step will be to march into the desert and dig for oil. You'll be envious!
@He Lin (Beijing Big Star): It's almost there, we're collaborating to further expand Quan Dasheng's business territory.
Xue Wei and Guan Yue were also overwhelmed with emotion when they saw the news that everyone in the group was encouraging each other.
In the evening, Zhang Tongban brought back the news before dinner.
"Master Xue, I have mobilized approximately two hundred people from three villages. We will rob you at Sunset Slope tomorrow at nightfall."
Zhang Tongban reported the time, place, the other party and the case very clearly.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the delicious dishes on the table, and his Adam's apple rolled: "Master Xue, can I come to the table to eat?"
Xue Wei nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, please take a seat."
"Two hundred people, can you handle it?"
Xue Wei answered vaguely while picking at the rice in his bowl: "Just barely okay, Guan Yue, what do you think?"
Guan Yue seemed to think seriously for a moment: "Should be possible, right? Didn't we capture 153 of them yesterday?"
"And we now have an additional 153 people to help us."
Cheng Jiayu nodded at the side: "So it's not a big problem, don't worry, just eat."
Zhang Tongban buried his face in the bowl, and a dark light flashed in his eyes when he heard the words.
