Xiushui was delighted when she heard all the flattering words from the businessman.
Back then, she and Mo Yunwen overthrew the Dark Palace and Yuan Jing's gang of evildoers. It was not just a good deed that was done in vain.
We can't use their real names, but we can invent a chivalrous and courageous character to replace them.
Therefore, there is a legend about the girl Baihua and the boy Yulong among the people.
These legends have even spread to more remote small countries, reminding them who cleared away the evil for them and who they should be grateful to.
In this case, do these people still have the nerve to invade the critical village?
If they come to invade, their own people will spit on them to death, not to mention other countries, where one person's saliva can drown those people.
As for those people from Xinjiang who want to come and work?
Xiushui certainly couldn't say that they had used violence to detain those invading people from Xinjiang, and had picked out many people with skills or great strength.
After that group of people stayed, they were taken in by Uncle Six, who was in charge of construction, to take on various jobs. Now, almost all the large and small construction projects in the country of Liuhua cannot be separated from Uncle Six's team.
After passing the imperial examination, Uncle Six took up various jobs with his engineering team to earn money while studying. Now he has even set up a short-distance transport team.
With the strong combination of the two, Uncle Six needs more and more people. Up to now, he has not only recruited useful talents from Xinjiang.
Even several other small countries near the border have recruited many practical talents from my uncle.
There was no other way. Liuhua Country had its own people, but they couldn't recruit too many. After all, the people here had to focus on agricultural production. If they recruited too many, they wouldn't be interested in farming, which would be bad for the country.
Also, because Uncle Six only recruits a large number of people from other countries, people from those small countries feel that they are more competent and cannot let down their trust.
Everyone worked as hard as they could. After returning home, they could buy a lot of food and clothes to take home.
The families of those who worked lived a good life, and a reputation was formed in their native countries that those who could come to Liuhua to work were lucky people.
Xiushui only briefly mentioned it to Uncle Liu at the beginning. Sometimes wars do not have to be fought with manpower. In fact, the economy is the most practical way of invasion.
Now, this invading force has just begun to emerge, and the people of Xinjiang and other small countries are very happy, thinking that they have received great favor.
However, they don’t know that with such a carrot hanging in the air, these small countries near Liuhua will become much more obedient and honest.
Going forward, the prosperity of Critical Village should be able to be maintained.
The two of them left the yogurt merchant, and Mo Yunwen gently held her hand and whispered to her to take credit.
"I have also informed the Liuhua Kingdom's royal palace of our intentions for what we are doing. Now many merchants in Liuhua Kingdom are willing to hire people from small countries to do work, also because of the actions of the royal family."
Xiushui praised him generously. "Well done, little brother! It seems that the royal family doesn't want to fight wars all the time.
As long as we don't fight, our Critical City will get better and better, and will grow stronger in the future. With the Critical City Self-Defense Force, we won't be afraid of invasions from the suicidal nations."
It has to be said that this was also facilitated by Mo Yunwen's spies in the royal families and ministers' homes.
To allow a remote village to have a self-defense force is honestly a very risky thing for the country.
A cautious leader would definitely not be happy to see the Self-Defense Forces.
However, now that the city of Linji is growing stronger and stronger, the tax silver it earns is so much that people say that they only need to select one male adult from each family for training every year, and there is no need for the royal family to station troops.
In other words, from now on, the city of Linji will no longer need to be managed by military personnel, but only by county officials.
The royal family did not provide any supplies or money, and only relied on the common people to defend their own homes. Although it was risky, the people of Linji City also gave them real benefits.
I just want to use my own people to protect my homeland... Although there is a little risk, isn't the supervisory power still in the hands of the royal family and the officials?
Therefore, in the end, it was clear that Critical City had its own Self-Defense Forces.
As for the Self-Defense Forces’ weapons and equipment?
Both sides tacitly agreed not to bring it up, but would the people in Critical City be fools?
Of course not. I have been trained. It is not excessive or against the rules if I forge a piece of farm tool at home to make it sharper or put some defensive items on my body.
In this way, the Self-Defense Forces of Critical City have now become a special existence with the best equipment and the best combat effectiveness in the Kingdom of Liuhua.
There are also some people who would complain, thinking that if this continues, the people in Critical City might have ambitions in the future.
However, the royal family and the ministers of the Ministry of War have tasted the sweetness of not spending money and still getting excellent equipment and talented people, so if you complain, they will just retort with one word.
"Okay, we'll disband them, and you'll provide the money and troops to protect that place."
Some people are eager to try and actually take the trouble to come here to serve as supervisors.
Unfortunately, just after giving the Critical City Guard a warning, they were immediately surrounded and attacked by various small animals.
Although no one was killed, I was still embarrassed and was criticized by others for being a bad person. In the end, I returned here to heal my wounds in shame.
After talking about the Self-Defense Forces for a while, the two of them went to the place where the scattered people were setting up stalls.
Almost all the stalls here are set up by outsiders. Although the location is a bit remote, you can still find good things occasionally.
While she was strolling, someone called out to Xiushui hesitantly.
"You are the little girl who fled to our city during the famine, right?"
Xiushui was stunned. "Who are you?"
"I'm from Shisha City, haha, and I'm really one of the Wen family's girls. Oh my, when you left, people in our city talked about you for a long time.
This time, we heard that there's a critical village that's developing very well, and they're planning a food festival, a doctor matchmaking event for 10,000 people, and a group wedding. So, people from our city teamed up and came to set up stalls and take in the excitement."
It turned out to be someone from Shisha City. Xiushui couldn't help but sigh, what a small world it is.
"You asked how Shisha City is doing now? Well, it's doing fine.
Nowadays, people in our city are used to doing the prayer dance every morning and evening. Many people have formed groups and fled famine for more than a year. After returning, they also started some kind of transport team.
If it weren't for those transport teams, we wouldn't be able to set up a stall here so conveniently. Speaking of which, people should move around more and see more. Otherwise, we'll still be stuck in Shisha City, thinking that our place is great.
But they don’t know that there are many good places out there, and we have a lot to improve and learn from…”
