The recruitment lasted for half a month. In the end, Liu Xuan had recruited a total of 3,000 soldiers.
Of course.
They only announced that there were 3,000 people, but the actual number was 3,000 more, a total of 6,000.
The reason for this was that the Yellow Turban Uprising had yet to break out, and the imperial court's ruling power over the entire world was weakening day by day due to the fatuous two consecutive emperors.
However, as the saying went, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse. Liu Xuan did not want to be targeted by the Imperial Court because he had gathered too many troops.
Three thousand people, no more, no less. It was just right.
Of course.
During these ten days, Liu Xuan was not idle.
He told the truth.
Liu Xuan did not deny that he was a lazy person before he transmigrated.
But now…
After transmigrating to this world for three to four months and seeing the sufferings of the common people, for some reason, he could clearly handle the work and fields very well. He could clearly hand over all the work to his subordinates as the county governor. He could clearly stay comfortably in his county governor's manor, drink tea, sleep, flirt with the maidservants, and so on.
However…
He just couldn't stay idle.
Every time he wanted to slack off, his mind would involuntarily recall what he had seen and heard in the past three months.
An unprecedented sense of responsibility suddenly enveloped him.
"This might be the growth that Old Ban often tells us about!”
In the past ten days, Liu Xuan had been busy making cement.
Yes, you didn't see wrongly. It's cement!
As for the cement formula, he bought it from the system store, which cost him 5,000 reputation points.
However…
Liu Xuan felt that it was worth it.
The cement was a divine tool for infrastructure!
Within ten days, he gathered almost all the craftsmen in Dai County and asked them to work together to study and produce cement.
With the help of the cement formula produced by the system, some craftsmen successfully refined the cement that night.
Liu Xuan rewarded the craftsman with 500 dans of food.
A thousand gold for a horse bone!
The effect was remarkable.
The craftsman who had received Liu Xuan's reward immediately knelt down in front of him and cried out in gratitude. He was extremely excited.
The rest of the craftsmen looked envious.
Soon after.
Liu Xuan struck while the iron was hot and announced the rules of rewards. As long as anyone could improve or even invent various practical tools, they would be rewarded!
On the spot, Liu Xuan could clearly feel that these craftsmen were all on steroids, working diligently and actively.
Since the cement had been produced, the next step was to expand production.
Liu Xuan immediately arranged for craftsmen and recruited laborers to build cement factories near the eleven counties in Dai County. Then, he started production without stopping.
Of course.
It was impossible for the entire city wall to be built with cement.
The cement alone was not the strongest. The reinforced concrete was the strongest.
However, there was such a lack of iron at this time, so Liu Xuan could only settle for the second best and add hard stones to the city walls.
Fortunately, Dai County was rich in stone resources.
Then, there was a new problem.
Even though there were plenty of stone mines in Dai County, the roads there were too bad. It would take a lot of effort to transport the mined stones over.
In Liu Xuan's opinion, other than the official roads connecting the major counties, the other roads were not roads at all.
It was bumpy, muddy, and covered in weeds. Large and small pits were everywhere.
"If you want to be rich, build a road first!"
At this moment, Liu Xuan finally understood the true meaning of this sentence from his previous life.
If your path isn't good, you won't be able to develop even if you want to.
That's why.
The city wall that was originally in preparation for reconstruction became a road repair.
First, they would build the roads between the eleven major counties in Dai County, then the roads from the major counties to the small counties, and then the roads from the small counties to the towns.
When the news that Liu Xuan wanted to build roads to the various villages came out.
The citizens of Dai County were moved to tears.
Then, his reputation points surged again.
After all, compared to rebuilding the city walls, building roads was directly related to the daily lives of the people.
In these ten days, the population survey of Dai County, which Liu Xuan called Dai County, continued smoothly.
Although the local residents of Dai County had almost all been registered, there were still many refugees who came to Dai County every day after hearing the news of Dai County opening the granaries to release grain. They eventually settled down in Dai County.
The population of Dai County had already exceeded 300,000.
……
"Lord County Governor!"
A small official walked in.
"What is it?" Liu Xuan raised his head.
"The recruitment work has been completed. The six thousand young men you asked for have all been arranged in the military camp outside the city.”the assistant said.
"Alright, you may leave!" Liu Xuan waved his hand and said,""Thank you for your hard work."
Hearing this.
The little secretary's body trembled.
An indescribable shock and emotion immediately appeared on his tired face.
His eyes were slightly red.
"It's not hard, it's not hard for this subordinate. Lord County Governor, this subordinate will take his leave first!”
Little Shi hurriedly pushed out of the study.
Today's first update! The sixth update in 24 hours!! Some readers said that it was a little too early, but it wasn't too early because the cheat that the author gave the protagonist wasn't the kind of exaggerated cheat that could summon tens of thousands of troops. It was just a cheat that could provide ordinary materials. The protagonist needed a certain amount of time to develop and convert these materials into strength, so time was necessary! Moreover, the protagonist needed time to grow! The protagonist before transmigration was just a high school student. It was impossible for him to grow up all of a sudden! In the end! Please vote! He begged for everything!
