Chapter 174 Not a Big Deal

It wasn't that Zheng Fan was being slow; it was that, as the person involved, he might not have been able to understand the point immediately.

Because it was really hard to imagine so many Demon Kings, chatting about serious business, collectively hitting on you;

The wheels of the car had run over your face again and again, but you were still foolishly shouting: Don't speed, keep a safe distance!

Si Niang knew what these people were doing but was too lazy to pay attention to them.

But in her heart, she slowly started a "road trip."

If I can do it, do you have to learn from me?

Hehehe… just thinking about it made her feel like her wheels were spinning.

Zheng Fan was about to get up and leave but sat back down and gently patted his head,

Saying:

"Other matters can be discussed later, but there's one more thing I want to add to what you were talking about earlier. I just thought of it. Sorry, I know everyone is tired, but since we're talking about it, let's finish it together. It's better to lay out the whole plan at the beginning than to patch it up later."

He had just thought of this. The reason he hadn't noticed it before was that he thought Blind Man and the others would know it themselves, but when he saw all these arrangements being made, he realized that point hadn't been mentioned, and Zheng Fan felt something was wrong.

The Demon Kings all took it seriously, including Si Niang, and bowed their heads, saying:

"Please enlighten us, Master."

"Well, then I'll say it. To put it bluntly, I don't know the price of rice until I'm in charge;

I know that raising soldiers is not cheap, and developing a city is not easy.

Our business has just started, and everything costs money. Even if the wealth from Chuzhou is smuggled over in the future, even if we count the wealth we've divided from the capital, both openly and secretly, to be honest, there's never enough money. It can always be spent.

But there are some things I talked about with you, Blind Man, back in Tiger Head City."

Zheng Fan looked at Blind Man,

Blind Man frowned slightly and then understood, saying:

"People's livelihood?"

"Yes, people's livelihood."

Zheng Fan sat up, holding a thermos in his hands, stroking it as he continued:

"You can say I'm a bit of a saint, and I don't deny that I'm a bit of a saint. I'm different from you. Sometimes, in certain environments, I'm a little soft-hearted."

"That's exactly why we admire and respect you, Master!"

Xue San immediately took the lead in flattering.

When the master had just advanced, the flattery had to be loud and magnificent.

Fan Li "hehe" smiled naively, seeing Xue San starting, instinctively feeling that he should say something at this time,

He said:

"Troublemaker."

"…" Zheng Fan.

"…" The Demon Kings.

Zheng Fan smiled, waved his hand to indicate that they shouldn't mind, and continued:

"The so-called people's livelihood is actually simple to do. In this era, it's nothing more than three things: schools, doctors, and free cemeteries.

And for these three things, all we pay is money."

As long as there was money, as long as they gave money, as long as there was enough money, these three things could be maintained and operated without much problem.

Blind Man was about to speak,

But Zheng Fan stopped him in advance,

Saying:

"I know, you might advise me to put this matter on hold first because, after we settle down, the money will flow out like water. Some things can be done later.

But you were the ones who asked me whether I wanted to be a comfortable rich man or do something big.

We're not playing a game for one round, and we're not going to throw away our lives after we finish playing and then get off the machine, singing when we should sing, and dancing when we should dance.

In schools, teach some useful things. Ideological things can be a guideline, but specifically, it's not much different from the Whampoa Military Academy, but don't take too big a step and tear your balls off. We should still start slowly with the children;

Blind Man, I'll have to trouble you with this. You'll be in charge."

Blind Man sighed and bowed, saying:

"Your subordinate understands and will arrange for people to start doing it immediately."

"Regardless of ethnicity, teach everyone, regardless of background. Savage, Jin, and Yan people, as long as they are children of school age, teach them all, and take them all in. It's okay if they don't learn well, it's okay if they're not that capable, but they have to remember clearly who paid for them to go to school, who paid for them to eat, and who they have to sell their lives to when they grow up."

"Your subordinate understands."

"Okay."

This item was settled like this. Zheng Fan believed that, with Blind Man's experience and knowledge, he could only do better than himself.

"As for the medical center, A Ming and Si Niang, you are responsible for handling it. I'm not talking about free medical care, but we can subsidize it a bit. Si Niang can take some apprentices."

Si Niang was very good at surgery. In the past, during wars, Si Niang would suture up anyone who suffered external injuries. In ancient times, if there was a mobile emergency team, it could greatly increase the chances of the wounded surviving and recovering.

A Ming opened his mouth and said:

"I have to go too?"

Zheng Fan nodded and said:

"You can be the chief cadaver."

"…" A Ming.

"As for the free cemetery, San'er, you and Fan Li are responsible for it. No ownerless corpses are allowed to appear near Shengle City, and I don't want a bunch of A Cheng's relatives to appear if things aren't handled well."

"Master, let me and San'er do this." Liang Cheng opened his mouth.

As a zombie, he naturally liked the atmosphere of the free cemetery.

"Okay."

Fan Li immediately asked, "What about me?"

"A Li, then you can build twenty public toilets in our city first."

Fan Li instinctively sensed that something was wrong, but he also instinctively nodded, indicating that he understood.

Zheng Fan began to make a concluding speech, saying:

"When I used to play strategy games, I liked to develop agriculture and technology first, and then start expanding when everything was ready and there was a better and more comfortable rear.

Reality is definitely different from games, and we have to analyze specific problems specifically, but to be honest, according to the current situation, it seems that we have nothing else to do but steadily develop agriculture.

In our area, the Yan Emperor and the two marquises are still alive and well. Although there are rumors that the Yan Emperor's health has problems, he hasn't died yet, has he?

Even if he dies, with Tian Wujing sitting here in Jin, we don't have the qualifications to snatch chestnuts from the fire.

The Great Cheng Kingdom in the east has reached a tacit understanding with the Yan Kingdom at this moment. They are fighting savages, and the Yan Kingdom will not go to war with them.

There are no wars in the east and west,

In the short term, the Yan Kingdom will not use troops against the Qian Kingdom, so we can take advantage of this period of peace and stability to consolidate our foundation."

"There are many savages in the Heavenly Break Mountains to the north. Although some of them, like Xiong Lie, have already been assimilated, there are still plenty of real savages, aren't there?"

Liang Cheng nodded and said, "What the Master said is true. After the troops are integrated, your subordinate will lead troops into the mountains to attack the savage settlements, firstly to train the troops, and secondly to plunder some resources."

Developing agriculture is developing agriculture, but if there are younger brothers near your home that you can rob, that's the best thing.

Anyway, the really powerful savages are being held back by the Situ family, and the threat from the savages near Shengle City has never been great, making it just right to be a whetstone.

"Well, take this opportunity to train the infantry. Cavalry is a trump card, but there must be an effective way to attack the city. We can't be stumped by the city walls like we used to be."

"Master, your subordinate will consider this in the future."

"Okay, just keep it in mind."

After saying that,

Zheng Fan stood up,

Saying:

"Everyone has worked hard, get some rest."

The Demon Kings all said in unison:

"Master has worked hard."

"Okay."

Zheng Fan turned around and left the hall,

And at this time,

The eyes of the other Demon Kings fell on Si Niang.

Si Niang "hmph"ed, unhurriedly picked up her teacup, and took a sip of tea.

After all, Xue San was more shameless and didn't pay attention to his image, directly saying:

"Si Niang, good luck!"

Si Niang glared at Xue San and said:

"Or, do you want to go instead?"

"…" Xue San.

Seeing this, the others were embarrassed to say anything more. After all, some things, especially between men and women, if you have to analyze some kind of relationship of interests, it would be too hurtful and fall into the lower ranks.

And everyone knew that Si Niang might not love the Master, at least not in the pure sense of the relationship between the male and female protagonists in a romance novel, because Si Niang was very proud and arrogant, a veteran driver who could drift in the cemetery.

But Zheng Fan was different. Zheng Fan had continued a lot of Si Niang's words. Even if it wasn't a relationship of love between a man and a woman, Si Niang actually had a sense of trust and dependence on Zheng Fan.

Jia Baoyu said that all the women in the world were made of water. In Si Niang's view, all the men in the world were made of mud, but Zheng Fan had some feeling of being a man.

After drinking her tea,

Si Niang gracefully rose,

"I'm leaving."

After saying that, she followed Zheng Fan's back and walked out.

The backyard had many rooms and wasn't small, but because it had only been roughly cleaned up, it didn't quite meet Zheng Fan's requirements. However, the remodeling would be carried out in a few days, and it could become as livable as the house in Tiger Head City.

Si Niang accompanied Zheng Fan in, lit the charcoal basin, and then came over to help Zheng Fan take off his coat, saying:

"Master, take a bath first."

"Okay."

The hot water in the bathtub had already been prepared. Zheng Fan sat down in it, his arms propped on the edge of the wooden bucket, squinting his eyes.

His body felt a little floaty after the advancement, as if his whole body had become a lot lighter.

In fact, there was a big difference between the eighth and seventh ranks, that was the control of power, starting from brute force and progressing to subtle and skillful manipulation.

In other words, it finally had a bit of the flavor of a grandmaster in a martial arts novel.

Outside the screen, Zheng Fan saw Si Niang's figure, graceful and charming. She should be changing her clothes.

Zheng Fan smiled,

And picked up the stone he was soaking in the bathtub with him.

Some things were not suitable for children after all.

Holding the stone in his palm and weighing it a few times, Zheng Fan looked at the window that was partially open diagonally.

"Son, go outside and play by yourself for a while."

Saying that,

Zheng Fan threw the stone directly towards the window seam,

Who would have thought that this stone would actually make a forced u-turn in the air,

And came back around,

Zheng Fan only had time to utter a:

Fuck!

Then,

The stone directly hit Zheng Fan's forehead.

"Bang!"
