Wolf King

Chapter 247 Saladin's Tangle

Farm No. [-] was the closest to the Fire Department, but there was no free ride, and the patriarchs of Farm No. [-] arrived half an hour later.

The No. [-] Farm is not far or near the Fire Department, and there is no ride. He left early in the morning and didn't arrive there until close to noon.

The local big cats who could be described as dissatisfied and broke up when they met last time, this time they met, they were not at war, but very united... Sit together and stare at the new big cats.

In the large conference room of the Ministry of Fire, two groups of big cats sat on both sides clearly, leaving a large space in the middle. Elder Saladin felt his stomach ache for a while... After traveling thousands of miles, this Tauren elder really didn’t care. It turns out that the most troublesome hurdle is here - it is not the question of whether the snow wolf clan can properly arrange the cat clan, but the problem of whether the local cats can accept foreign cats!

It stands to reason that the tauren are very aware of the urine nature of the cat clan, and Elder Saladin could not have missed this point, but... who told Xia and Arthur, the cat clan patriarchs, to "confuse" him? !

Elder Saladin was worried with a ferocious face, but the Snow Werewolf who presided over the meeting acted like a blind man and didn't respond to the atmosphere of the scene.

It is not only the cat clan that will be arranged together today, but also the gray dwarves.At this moment, Xiao Yun solemnly introduced the new gray dwarf representative to Balu who had come to pick up the people from the hilly new area, and solemnly handed over the gray dwarves rescued from the Tiger Clan mining area to Balu.

As for the goblins that were brought back by hand, they will not be sent to the new hilly area, but will be replenished directly to the goblin quarries in Baron and Gal... The goblins are the best arrangement. They eat and drink all the way and arrive at the Ministry of Fire. After three days of rest, he went to work with the local goblins like Baron and Gal today.

These humble green-skinned halflings have never been strong, nor have the strength to occupy land and become kings. Naturally, there is no problem of regional discrimination.

"Everyone, please rest assured that our Qiuling New District is completely different from the Dungeon City and the King's Court of the Tiger Clan. We have a standardized working system there. The daily working hours do not exceed ten hours. If it exceeds, overtime pay will be calculated on an hourly basis. Every six days Arrange a rotation. Newcomers will have meal allowances for the first month. They will be rewarded with a 5% attendance bonus if they go to work on time, do not arrive late and leave early, and do not miss work. If they perform outstandingly or have special skills, they can participate in the mechanic assessment, and enjoy 20% for each level of mechanic level. % salary increase..."

Under the watchful eyes of a large group of cats, tauren, snow werewolves, and gray dwarves, Baru was not at all stage frightened, and very fluently talked about the welfare benefits of the new hilly area...

Fooling people also needs to talk about the basic law. You have to throw out the big cakes that can be implemented or not, and whether you can eat or not. You have to throw them out depending on the occasion-intentionally fooling the other party, the more hype the better, such as those engaged in pyramid schemes and health care products. , That's what you dare to talk about.

If you sincerely invite the other party, then you don’t have to play tricks. It’s the most sincere and effective way to talk about benefits first.

Several representatives of the oldest ex-slave gray dwarves were very excited and said on the spot that they would be able to sign the employment contract immediately...

Balu was still rushing back to start work, he waved his hand shortly, greeted Xiao Yun, and immediately took him away. Before leaving, he still didn't forget to say goodbye to Elder Saladin who had taken care of them back then.

Cleanly arranged more than a thousand gray dwarves, allowing the tauren and new cats to feel the efficiency of the Fire Department, Xiao Yun then looked at the two groups of big cats who had been in a lawsuit for a long time, and smiled. : "The three races of gray dwarves, goblins, and centaurs are not suitable for farming. They are not engaged in farm management within the system of our Ministry of Fire."

"The cat clan, the snake clan, and our snow wolf clan can engage in farm operations. In terms of the farm support policies of the three clans, our Huoyan Department is fair and just and treats everyone equally."

"According to the size of the farm production team, select the land with water conservancy facilities for land reclamation. If there is no water conservancy facility, our engineering team of the Fire Department will arrange people to lead the farmland water conservancy construction project. This is the first point."

"Suggestions on crop selection, guidance on agricultural technology, provision of seeds, pesticides and fertilizers, and agricultural machinery, this is the second point."

"Our Flame Department guarantees to do a good job in supporting the farms run by each race. The operation during the production period must be completed by each family. The harvest depends on whether the farmland is carefully managed by the family."

These remarks are to set the tone first—the new cats run the farm with the support and support of the Fire Department, instead of relying on the local cats of the farm to help them wherever they go!

Let me be sober, all farm production teams are essentially serving the bowls of the Huoyanbu!

No matter what mood the local cats are in, with Xiao Yun's words, the new big cats are really relieved... They are willing to follow because they believe that the words of the tauren are reliable, and they are quite yearning for what Xia and Arthur described. Stable life.

The care they received along the way made them look forward to the "Huoyan Ministry", a multi-racial and magical tribe.

It wasn't until they arrived at the Fire Department that Xia let them know that they had to live with the local cats in the cat family farm and learn how to run the farm together. These big cats are really bad for the whole cat—although there is no saying that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers in this world, but Big cats also care about their territory, okay? !

Who can bear to squeeze together with "foreign cats"!

Hmm... In fact, the big cats of the Fire Department and Xiao Yun are not unaware that such an arrangement will cause problems in the early stage, but this is really impossible - there are only a few big cats that can organize the production of the farm, and there are not enough points. ah!

As soon as Patriarch Arthur and Xia came back, didn't they run to the farm to check the work without being out of breath?

Besides these two and Qingyan, who else can take the lead?

No fish bones!

The local cats were a little embarrassed, Xiao Yun didn't say it clearly, but they could hear the sound.

That's right, they are the ones who run the farm and plant the farm, but without the water conservancy project led by the engineering team, and without the seeds, pesticides, fertilizers and agricultural machinery provided by the Fire Department, they would not be able to spread out such a large scale of planting , Can also guarantee a certain output.

In the final analysis, the Tauren family is probably the only one who can make a fortune by farming without the aid of pesticides, fertilizers and agricultural machinery...

When the Snow Werewolf first started farming, Xiao Yun tried his best to make local fertilizers and pesticides to assist production!

Numerous hollowed out beast lairs, hollowed out swamp silt, leveled forest humus, all tell the story of the hardships of the snow wolf tribe in the first few years of farming...

Subtly suppressing the momentum of the local cats, Xiao Yun continued to talk down, and looked at the new cats gently: "In terms of the distribution of farm output, I think Lai Xia should have mentioned it to everyone. In this regard, we are fierce The Ministry has two distribution models, one is the labor system, [-]% of the farm output is paid to the Huoyan Ministry as the cost of seeds, pesticides, fertilizers, agricultural machinery, house rent, and land use fees, and [-]% is paid to the farm operators as remuneration. Among the output, the part that exceeds the daily necessities can be exchanged for other living materials with the Ministry of Fire, or exchanged for coins."

"This is the distribution system implemented by our No. [-] farm." Xiao Yun spread his hands to the seven patriarchs of the No. [-] farm, "If you all prefer this distribution system, you can cooperate with the Qingtian tribe, Xiu tribe, and Amber tribe. family and tribe as companions."

"The second distribution model is the contracted cooperation model. All the harvest in the farm output belongs to the farm operator. However, if the farm is contracted, it is necessary to fully repay the funds invested by the Ministry of Fire and Flame in the early construction of the farm, and in the future production Among them, they are responsible for the profit and loss of the farm, and purchase their own seeds, pesticides, fertilizers and agricultural machinery."

After a pause, to give the new cats some time to understand what he said, Xiao Yun continued with a smile: "Of course, this repayment process can be done in installments, and the Ministry of Fire and Flame will give three years to adapt, and within these three years, it can be the same as the labor system. After three years, when it stabilizes and adapts to the working rhythm of the farm, it will initially repay the investment of the Huoyan Department with the harvest of each quarter."

"The contracting and cooperation model will be more difficult than the labor system. It requires the whole family to work, bear the debt together, and suffer for a few years. But it is not worthless. For example, the empty tribe in our No. [-] farm, they have adapted for a year After the labor system, it was transformed into a contracting and cooperative system. The whole family worked together to reclaim nearly [-] mu more land than other tribes, and intensively cultivate cash crops. In just one and a half years, the debts were settled and the tribe lived The forty houses in the village were transferred to the Kong Tribe, and they successfully obtained the first-priority farm land use rights.”

Patriarch Kong was a little embarrassed, and the few clansmen who followed Patriarch Kong to the meeting all puffed out their chests proudly.

"If you prefer the contracting and cooperation model, you can be with the No. [-] farm where our Kong tribe is located, or the No. [-] farm of the same model." Xiao Yun concluded with a smile.

Without making a fuss, Xiao Yun suppressed both the right to live in the farm that the local cats thought they had, and the right of independent choice that the new cats thought they had.

Needless to say the former, the principle of the latter is the same as an old mother asking her child "eat celery or coriander"... If you want to ask "whether to eat celery", then you will be inferior.

Are these new big cats really all willing to work on the farm?

Don't think too much - there are more than 200 big cats in the Huoyan Department, and the only ones who have the means to hold down the cat heads of these guys to make the girls jump into the farming pit are the three of them, Chief Arthur, Xia and Qingyan!

Why did Xia deliberately bring up the arrangement of letting the new cat and the old cat live in the same litter after deceiving people to the place?It is to make these new cats ignore the high-intensity agricultural labor that is against their attitude towards life...

The big cats never expected Xiao Yun to play tricks in this place, and the local cats have no face to continue to bring up the "invasion of private land by foreign cats", because the farm was not their territory in the first place; the new cats subconsciously ignored Xiao Yun's only mention After a few years of hard work, I seriously discussed with the clansmen which model would be beneficial to them...

The tauren elder Saladin who saw through everything belatedly: "..."

The old red-eyed Bull Demon King silently turned his head and took a deep look at Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun winked at him.

Saladin was very worried: Is it really okay to not tell them how hard farming is?

Xiao Yun said: The boat has sailed into the sea, can the people on board still jump off?

Saladin, who had completed radio communication with Xiao Yun for the first time, was shocked. Although he could not accurately interpret the message sent by this snow wolf cub, Saladin instinctively felt that this guy didn't hold his fart well...

Xiao Yun naturally couldn't receive the Tauren's radio waves, he just guessed what the red-eyed Bull Demon King was worried about... Would the Tauren know how hard it is to farm?

Regarding this point, Xiao Yun said: Which woman who is widowed after marriage and has to take care of the older children is not a delicate girl before marriage!

The (physical fitness) of intelligent creatures is at the limit of weak chickens, and human women can hold up half the sky against all odds. There is no such thing as a cat family that is several times more durable than a human race!

These new big cats are "sensible and interesting", and they can get used to it after a year or two at most after entering the farm; if they are not sensible, then we have a place to arrange-they are welcome at the construction site of the Grand Canal at any time!

Xiao Yun beat them down repeatedly. The first batch of big cats who migrated from the central region did not really appear to be "ignorant of good and evil". Farms No. and No. [-].

When the new cats made a choice, Xiao Yun started a persuasive education to the local cats with a smile. To sum it up, a harmonious environment is conducive to production, mutual help and mutual assistance are beneficial to development; If the normal production order is disrupted, then the beautiful and harmonious life in the farm will be temporarily far away from him, and he will go to the construction site of the Grand Canal for half a year to transform and sublimate his ideological realm.

Although they didn't object at first, they still put their refusal on their faces, and the local big cats were immediately persuaded.

Elder Saladin who watched the whole process: "..."

The red-eyed Bull Demon King turned his head again and looked at Xiao Yun deeply, deeply.

Xiao Yun blinked innocently.

As the elder of the True Holy Mother of the Tauren clan, Saladin really couldn't see bullying and bullying happening in front of his eyes.

A group of big cats can be persuaded by a sentence of "reform education on construction sites". Saladin is very suspicious of how much psychological shadow Xiao Yun, a guy who really becomes less and less a good person the more he gets in touch with, has tossed these cats.

But with the simple world view of the Tauren, Saladin intuitively found that the spirit and complexion of these local cats are quite good, and the clothes, shoes, belts, hats and other accessories look better than when they went to their own tribe to fight the autumn wind, so he The doubts are not unreasonable...

With such confusion in mind, after the arrangements for the new cats were finalized, Saladin decided not to rush back to his hometown, but to go to the cat family's farm to see for himself.

"Of course there's no problem with this." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun immediately asked the centaurs (mostly old and weak) in the tribe who were engaged in short-distance land transportation to send the Tauren and his party to Farm No. [-] first. (The new cats have to carry the basic daily necessities by themselves after the Fire Department)

Following a small convoy pulled by a group of centaur and half-grown children, they arrived at the cat farm for two hours. Saladin and the tauren warriors accompanied by him had their eyes lit up.

The working atmosphere at No. [-] Farm is not as good as that of No. [-] and No. [-], but these big cats have been squatting in this farm for two and a half years, and they have indeed managed their living environment well:

Flowers and plants are planted wherever flowers and plants can be planted, such as shallots, garlic, and green vegetables are planted together with the flowers and plants; the gray concrete exterior wall of the building is carefully painted with a self-adjusted exterior paint (colored mineral + lime preparation) , the color matching is also quite particular; the areas left between the various living areas in the farm are furnished with seats for people to rest, and the picked wood roots are patiently polished to make the sitting places particularly smooth.

In addition to these things that can be seen at a glance and are much more refined than the Huoyanbu, the "petty bourgeoisie" of the big cats is even more vividly reflected in the details: all the dormitory housing windowsills are placed with flower pots, wood carvings, shapes Beautiful decorations such as fruit cores, paws, knives and other tools are used to grind patterns and reliefs on all the doors, and homemade simple swings are tied to the branches of large trees that have not been removed and exist as landscape trees. ...

Saladin walked into a living area at random, picked a dormitory window and looked in, and found that the cat clan even made the dormitory interior very delicate and warm—not to mention the mats, pillows and bedding that matched the fire department, and the kang they slept on. He even made a "nest"-like isolation by himself, ordered some wooden shelves on the side of the kang against the wall to store personal belongings and clothes, and there were decorations woven with colored wool and feathers on the wall!

The so-called "joy of life" that the cat tribe engages in on the farm, from the perspective of the snow werewolf, it is not doing business and frightening; but in the eyes of the tauren as a visitor, it is completely different-this is all It's something that you have the mood to do when you live a sufficient and stable life!

"It seems that the cat tribe is really doing well with the snow werewolf." A tauren warrior following Saladin said appreciatively.

"Yeah, I used to think that only the patriarch of the cat clan could dress so neatly, but now I see that the cat clan living with the snow werewolf has no shortage of clothes to wear." Another soldier also said.

Elder Saladin didn't speak, but judging from his constantly tapping his chin and satisfied expression, he also deeply agreed.

The canteen in the farm is run by the Snow Werewolf, and there is also a special dormitory for the Snow Werewolf staff.Elder Saladin purposely stayed in the cafeteria for two days, and chatted with the cats working in the farm when he had nothing to do. During this period, the chief Arthur, who was in charge of the No. [-] farm, did not interfere at all and allowed the tauren to move about.

After some "visiting", what was passed from the population of the cat clan to Elder Saladin's ears really did not have bad words about the Snow Wolf clan and the Huoyan tribe, but instead they were dissatisfied with certain management and patriarchs in his family— —The information between the farm and the Huoyan Department is smooth. Compared with the dedication of the patriarchs of the Huoyan Department, the patriarchs of the Huoyan Department are very outrageous!

The so-called not suffering from scarcity but suffering from inequality, the big cats in the farm have been abundant in supplies for the past two years, and there is no shortage of everything, but they are suffering from "inequity"!

After hearing a lot, Elder Saladin naturally came up with this sentence: "Why doesn't the Fire Ministry care about this?"

"Clan Chief Arthur said that the Ministry of Fire and Flames thinks it is bad to interfere in the internal affairs of other tribes, and we hope we can solve it by ourselves." The cat warrior who came to complain to Elder Saladin during the lunch break said uncomfortably, "We will fight for it." After so long, it’s just that the patriarch Arthur supports us and the distribution of the farm’s harvest. The patriarch can’t let the patriarch alone have the final say, and all the management must approve it.”

Elder Saladin frowned deeply. He already felt that something was wrong. A strong sense of disobedience was throbbing in the heart of this wise tauren: the distribution of tribal resources is originally the power of the patriarch. The earliest daily necessities were not distributed by the patriarch, and the current farm output is not determined by the patriarch. Will he have a sense of identity?

But thinking about it, whether it is the daily necessities given by the Fire Department or the output of the farm, these big cats sweat and sweat. Elder Saladin thinks there is nothing wrong with this, and even vaguely feels that the patriarchs who only do light work took advantage of...

The cat warriors didn't notice Saladin's entanglement. They had traveled to the Hor tribe many times to fight for their own tribe, so the warrior who was more familiar with Saladin was still complaining endlessly: "None of the chiefs of the Huoyan tribe is comfortable. Damn it, last time I heard from the delivery centaur cubs that even their centaur patriarch (Sayer) went to the human kingdom to make money, and he sent back a lot of gold coins last winter, in the northeast of the Fire Department They built several good houses for the centaurs to live in."

"Where's the patriarch Qing Tian of our tribe? He probably doesn't think about other things except how to make everyone in the tribe listen to him every day!"

Saladin couldn't help but nodded, and said from the bottom of his heart: "This is really not good. The patriarch who wants to gain the respect of the tribe should work harder than the tribe."

"You think so too, Elder Saladin, then please help us talk to Chief Arthur." The cat warrior begged.

"This..." Saladin hesitated, and after thinking about it, he said, "The Ministry of Fire and Flame believes that they should not interfere in the internal affairs of other clans, and they have their reasons."

The cat warriors couldn't persuade the tauren to help, so they had to leave regretfully.

The tauren and his party squatted for another two days, and the eight new cat tribes came to the farm with their own supplies and a group of snow werewolves who helped and guided them to build a house.

The engineering team is all working on the Grand Canal project, and there is no manpower available. Fortunately, building a single-story house is not too technically difficult, and anyone who has been in the engineering team can get started; plus it is now the slack period after summer planting Xiao Yun drew people from various farms and formed an amateur engineering team to build houses for the cat clan.

On the day of arrival, the group of snow werewolves who came to help organized the new cat clan to select a site and dig a foundation.

Saladin was also curious about how the snow werewolves from the Fire Department would organize the work of the cat clan, so he went to visit.

After one day, Saladin was very silent...

These snow wolf tribes did not force all the cat tribes to work, and all the patriarchs just watched from the sidelines.

In the past, Saladin didn't care whether the work distribution of other races was fair.But knowing the cooperation and sharing model of the Ministry of Fire and Fire for the cat clan, and hearing the complaints and requests of the cat clan fighters, Saladin felt uncomfortable looking at the few patriarchs standing on the construction site and pointing fingers ...

It’s not to say that all cat patriarchs are idle and lazy, but to be honest, the patriarch who chooses the labor mode without hesitation after hearing the two cooperation sharing models given by the Ministry of Fire and Flame basically has no ambition to lead the clan to become the masters of the country. I just think about being in the nest...

Xiao Yun specially asked Saladin to come to the No. [-] farm, just to let the tauren understand from the side the difficulties of the snow wolf clan to be the talkers of the grassland and lead the grassland people to work hard to get rich: when encountering this kind of situation, it is clear that they have to ride on the tribe The patriarch who is lying on his head enjoying himself, and the leader of the Snow Wolf Clan, what degree of intervention is appropriate?

You tauren saints are saints, but you have not helped other races to the extent of helping others to stand up on their own, so you have no idea of ​​the conflicts and differences in ideas between those who are eager for development and the conservative old forces who are lagging behind. How big it is; now, please take a good look, experience, and think about it!

When the Tauren, who had been squatting at the Cat Clan Farm for ten days, returned to the Ministry of Flames to bid farewell to the Snow Wolf Clan, Elder Saladin became especially silent, not even showing that kind of deep look in his eyes.

Xiao Yun didn't seem to explore the meaning of the tauren's thoughts, he politely packed the gift and sent the tauren away, then turned his face and continued to pack his luggage.

Yu is not good at words and not clever enough, but he is direct enough.He sent Elder Saladin out of the territory of the Ministry of Fire, and turned around to look for Xiao Yun: "Ah Yun, don't you ask the Tauren's attitude?"

"You don't need to ask. It is true that our Fire Department hopes to unite all the races on the grassland to avoid the tauren, but we don't need the approval of the tauren for every action we make." Xiao Yun stopped to pack up, and patiently explained, "Just let them know that the path chosen by our Fire Department is different from that of the Tiger Clan and theirs. Every choice and every thing we do by our Fire Department has been carefully considered and weighed for the sake of harmony and stability. Then even if the tauren don't understand our approach, they won't object too violently."

"Speaking out this kind of thing directly will make people disgusted. Let them see, feel, and think for themselves, which is much more useful than our own mouth."

Yu scratched his scalp, it was a little bit hard for him to understand this kind of truth that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words, but he has not been a fool for so many years, and he seems to understand something.

Xiao Yun patted Yu's arm with a smile: "You can rest assured about this matter. After thinking about it slowly, you will always understand. Go back and get things ready, we have to go to Isaac's place to perform the game ball."

If the Huoyan Department used peaceful means to unify the grasslands, the Tiger Clan was the first threshold, and the Tauren was the second threshold.

Xiao Yun has always maintained a close relationship with these virgins of the prairie. The reason is: although these real virgins are indeed very influential, it is really not a good thing to be friends with the virgins!

The Holy Mother and Daughter cheat teammates, and the real Virgin will also cheat teammates!

So just be an acquaintance!

Of course, this does not mean that Xiao Yun can carelessly treat the tauren as a little transparency that can be ignored or dismissed casually. Even if he does not seek support, he must get the understanding of the tauren... Otherwise, many bulls blocking the way will come out out of thin air, and they will have to How aggrieved?

So Xiao Yun had to show Elder Saladin: Our Snow Wolf Clan is definitely not hegemonic to interfere in the internal affairs of other clans forcefully, and our Snow Wolf Clan is also very difficult...Since everyone in your group of True Virgins sympathizes, then Also sympathize with us who are engaged in organizational work!
