Pirates born to be kings

Early the next morning, a report was placed on the table, which was about the list of beneficiaries of the warm winter plan. .shung

As soon as Valbo picked it up, a familiar name came into view.

"Is this Dasji the one I know?" He thought of the guard from the King's Army who was always guarding the door. He had a cold expression and matched with the tall and slim military uniform. He was a very handsome young man.

"Your Majesty, it's him." Jace came to the palace early,

In fact, this list was exactly what he compiled last night.

"Interesting, how come he was allowed to move in first? Does the King of Wei Army lack accommodation?" Valpo looked at the Warm Winter Plan. It stated that the first batch of rock houses was only available in Big Horn Village, and there were only 20 of them.

"Your Majesty, this is still the sequelae of the previous Laban invasion." Jess explained, "Because they saw the collapse of rock houses, many villagers in Big Horn Village were still resistant to the warm winter plan, so Chief of Staff Cromarimon simply The government did not force the houses to be provided to the villagers. Instead, they selected 20 orphans from the army and distributed them free of charge. Dasji was one of them.

Valpo had a better understanding of Cromarimon's on-site handling ability.As expected of a affairs officer, instead of persuading or even forcing villagers to live in rock houses, it is better to mobilize their enthusiasm. Although it seems that the first batch of warm winter plans failed, it actually eased the relationship between the country and its citizens, and also served as a basis for the following. One action sets the stage.

This is an idea that captures people's hearts. It is equivalent to establishing a trial site so that most villagers can have a reference. When everyone gradually accepts the warm winter plan, let alone force it, they will all look forward to their turn soon.

As for...

Is it free?

He frowned slightly. Compared with the fact that no one wanted to move in, this was actually the thorny issue.

Since these 20 are free, there must be a charge.

Valpo thought thoughtfully. He left the Warm Winter Plan to the three ministers with full authority. In addition to the materials for building the rock house and the idea of ​​providing the fire kang, he stopped taking care of the matter. He did not know about the subsequent use of the rock house or the method of buying and selling it.

Now it seems that Cromarimon wants to sell it to the people?

It’s not that it’s bad, after all, the materials alone can’t be turned into houses even if no one builds them. The labor cost is something that cannot be ignored. It’s not noticeable even in small quantities. But if you want to turn all the houses in the Drum Kingdom into rock houses, Also a massive bailey.

Moreover, most people have an idea based on their life experience. They always feel that things obtained for free are not worth cherishing and are not good things. If the Warm Winter Plan is really a free gift, it is unlikely that the people will still support him. How grateful the kingdom is.

Generally speaking, the fee is feasible, but the amount of Bailey also needs to be considered. If it is more, there will be resentment, if it is less, it will be disdainful.

When it comes to understanding Valpo, no one in the Kingdom of the Drum is as good as Jess. He just saw His Majesty pondering for a while and then said, "In addition to these 20 rock houses, Cromarimon has also prepared a progressive fee plan. .”

"Oh?" Valpo asked, "The fee is progressive?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Jace still remembers the glory on his old friend's face when he discussed with him. The last time he saw him like this was when he was just appointed as the affairs officer by the late king. "He is going to follow the instructions of the villagers." According to the willingness to move in and the degree of contribution to the kingdom, make a "rock house occupancy schedule."" He paused and then said, "The progressive fee plan is based on the list on this occupancy schedule, and the rock huts of the Warm Winter Plan are built. The batches gradually increase the amount of purchases by citizens."

Jess compared it, “For example, for the first batch of rock houses, only half of the labor cost is charged, then for the second batch, 2/3 is charged, for the third batch, the full labor cost is charged, and by the fourth batch, an appropriate amount of labor cost for building the rock houses can be charged. As for the cost of materials, the actuary needs to further calculate the cost.”

"The first thing that was charged was just the labor fee, and then it gradually increased to the cost of building materials." Valpo was very satisfied. "It's just these fees in the early stage. If there is no additional value-added, it is indeed a good plan. I'm serious about it."

There was no land price, and there was no arbitrary price increase. Even the material cost was 0 beli, and only half of the labor cost was charged. He couldn't imagine how cheap the previous batches of houses were, 100 million beli? 80 Baileys?No... maybe less.

It’s not unusual for something to be free, but when something can be bought very cheaply but you can’t buy it and can only watch its price slowly increase, people will cherish it and think that they can buy it first. Glory.

In line with the required level of contribution to the kingdom, it is foreseeable that the cohesion of the Drum Kingdom will be further strengthened.

Valpo was already satisfied, but the surprises given by Jace continued. He could only say that the three ministers, well...not counting Dalton, the vision of the two ministers was not beyond his reach.

"Your Majesty," Jess said, "Cromalimon will try to build more types of rock houses, or buildings with rock brick structures, in the subsequent warm winter plan. He wants to use this plan to gradually temper the Drum Kingdom. Create a top-notch construction team.”

This is equivalent to giving the Drum Kingdom a construction team that is at least an outstanding level on a technical level...

The height of the position determines the scenery you can see. As the affairs officer of the Drum Kingdom, Cromarimon is undoubtedly extremely competent. He can always do his bidding and exert every effect to the best of his ability. A waste of national power.

What else could Valpo say? He just praised, "Good, very good..." He paused, "It's really good."

"It is an honor for me to serve His Majesty." Jace bowed and ended the topic.

Valpo was also interested in these twenty new rock huts. Since Dasji was among them, he happened to ask about it and rang the copper bell. However, another member of the Royal Guard came in, "Where's Dasji?" ?”

The guard stood up straight, feeling faintly excited, "Your Majesty, Dasji is taking leave today to pick up his sister and move into the rock house."

"Sister? Aren't you orphans?" Valpo still remembered what Jace said just now. The first batch of rock houses were given to 20 army orphans.

The guard replied loudly, "Report to your majesty! That is the sister that Dasji recognized at the Little Bear Home, and she is also an orphan!"

"Okay, I understand." Valpo dug his ears. The guard's voice was deafening in the closed room. He knew that the other party was too nervous. "Young man, what is your name?"

The guard was so excited that his face turned red. He stamped his feet vigorously and saluted, "Report to your Majesty! King Wei Jun Suoduo is reporting to you!"

This king’s ears...

"Okay, okay... Got it." This room couldn't stay any longer. It was buzzing now. Valpo looked at Jace, "My staff officer, how about we go to the rock house to take a look?"

"I follow your wishes, Your Majesty." Jace saluted, "Do I need to call Chopper?"

"That's right." Valpo almost forgot about Chopper, "This guy has been eating and sleeping recently. Apart from training his fruit power with me in the afternoon, he has become more and more lazy at other times. Call him."

After dragging Chopper up from the warm quilt, the little reindeer was still in a daze. He grabbed His Majesty the King's trouser legs, breathed, and followed step by step. The group took the ropeway to Big Horn Village.

At this moment, Dasji was holding a package and standing in front of a slightly dilapidated big house. Several children in plain clothes were playing nearby, fighting for a patched ball. His cold face , with a rare warmth, whispered in a low voice, "Moli, we can go home soon."
