Chapter 214 Doubt
Valley of Miracle Doctors, these three words are a golden sign no matter where they are placed.
But on this notice, they hesitated?
Why? Because they know that pie will not fall from the sky, and nothing good will happen.
So, what is going on?
Each of them believes that although it is very lively, only few people believe it.
However, after everyone turned around, they found their family members one after another.
Some people don't want to leave their hometown because they are living a good life, but there are always people who are not living as they wish.
For example, if the family has a large number of people, or someone in the family is sick, in order to treat the elderly person, the family's financial resources have been emptied.
Sometimes people don't like change, but when they are forced to this extent, it is impossible not to change.
"Are we going to the royal city?"
"It's all desolate there. If we go there, can we really eat and drink?"
"I don't know, but it's better than waiting to die here."
After the news spread, people quickly packed their luggage and found someone to vouch for it.
The notice stated very clearly that because they needed people to settle down for a long time, they not only needed identity documents, but also had guarantees from five households in the village.
This is Su Ruchun's idea. She is afraid that some criminal thieves will actually sneak in and cause trouble.
Therefore, this must be guaranteed.
Nowadays, everyone lives in the same village. You can actually find out what the people are like by asking around.
Therefore, Su Ruchun's meaning is very clear, that is, guarantee.
Because only a guarantee can prove that you are a good person.
If there's no one in a village who can vouch for you, it's really not that good to prove your character.
Therefore, this method was adopted, and it is also the simplest and most effective method.
Although it is a little difficult, it is not difficult.
After getting their things and carrying the only food, these people set off.
At this moment, Su Ruchun was settling accounts.
She didn't use abacus beads, just a charcoal pen and a piece of white paper to calculate everything they needed.
“We need grain, cotton and coarse cloth, these are the first batch of materials released after settling in.
Of course, there are also houses, and there are quite a few abandoned houses in this city, but they also need to be registered."
Su Ruchun followed Gu Junli here and was also shocked by the scene in front of her.
She knew very well that the emperor gave this city to them so happily, and it was definitely not an important city.
But I never expected that this royal city would be so desolate, with less than a thousand people living in such a large city!
She was walking on the street and couldn't see many people passing by her. This was so shocking.
Fortunately, Gu Junli was quite reliable, and he had already sent a large amount of food over.
These grains are now piled up in the largest square in the royal city.
There was a row of sheds built on the square, all of which were used to store food. In the middle of the square were several large pots and some women standing there.
They are cooking porridge, and the aroma is filling the air.
When the first group of people arrived, they were stunned by the sight in front of them. On the one hand, they felt that this place was deserted, and on the other hand, they also felt that the Valley of Miracle Doctors was really generous.
They were a little uneasy at first, but when they saw so much food, they finally calmed down.
As long as there is food, they will not starve to death. It is better than staying in their hometown.
They stood in front of the square one after another, but they did not dare to speak and did not know what to do.
At this time, some officials came out, and they formally announced the former officials of this royal city.
There was no life here before, and they were just surviving here, and the possibility of leaving was really slim.
But things are different now. They know that this place already belongs to the Valley of Divine Medicine, and that the Valley of Divine Medicine will also grow medicinal materials and crops here.
For this reason, they must work hard and keep these people.
They knew very well that as long as they kept these people, they would gain popularity here and the royal city would have hope.
Therefore, the officials were very kind and led people directly to the porridge shed to eat first and then talk.
These people were also very hungry and had not had much to eat along the way, so they were very friendly when they saw the food.
When you have enough to eat and drink, you will naturally be willing to stay and settle here.
Although they were still a little unsure, they had no way out.
With three months' worth of food in hand, they happily went to their homes.
He held a big red signature in his hand. He drew it out by himself, so he couldn't complain.
Although the house is a little dilapidated, it is still a house.
Therefore, they happily moved in.
Although only more than a hundred people came here on the first day, Gu Junli was not in a hurry.
Just like Su Ruchun said, there's no point in being anxious. If you have this time, you might as well think about how to make people stay!
After all, it costs one hundred thousand taels of silver here, which is not a small amount of money.
Soon, Su Ruchun stopped caring about the square, because the first group of people who arrived had already gathered. A total of more than 500 people had gathered in three days, but it was enough.
"Let me tell you now how to grow sweet potatoes!"
No one expected that it would be a little girl who taught them how to farm.
They are somewhat unconvinced. Who doesn’t know how to farm?
But when the sweet potato seedlings appeared, they were stunned.
What on earth is this? Why have I never seen it before?
Sweet potato cultivation is actually very simple, but the land outside the royal city has been abandoned for many years, so it naturally requires deep plowing.
Now is the most difficult time, but they are very happy to take care of three meals a day and still have more than ten pennies.
That's it, they are willing even if they don't give land.
However, I didn't expect that one person was given three acres of land.
This seems to be their mission, but after three years these lands will become theirs.
In this way, wouldn't life become more stable?
Everyone was very happy and excited, as if they had seen a new life.
Moreover, growing sweet potatoes is indeed not very tiring, and it is easier than usual work.
So, they stayed willingly.
As the population increases, the surrounding land is heavily exploited, and some people even begin to reclaim wasteland.
They have not been lazy, because there is a team leader among twenty people. If someone is lazy, today's salary will not be paid.
Although we have enough money, we can't do it without getting paid, so everyone works hard and there is no slacking off at all.
This method also surprised Gu Junli. He didn't expect the effect to be so good.
Of course, these group leaders are also supervised. If they deceive others below them, then these group leaders will also lose their qualifications.
Therefore, Su Ruchun's method seemed simple, but I didn't expect it to be very effective.
A month later, there were nearly 10,000 people in the royal city.
Although it was still a bit missing, Gu Junli was very satisfied with the effect.
Then, those who entered again found that the houses in the city were already full.
They were very anxious, what should they do?
