When he returned to the village with the hunting team, Chu Tian found that the people's hearts had increased by 1 point, reaching 76. Perhaps the hunting team provided meat to the village, and the villagers' satisfaction increased.

After half a day out hunting in Chutian, more than a dozen refugees appeared near the village, with the number of villagers in the village reaching 163, including 61 township heroes.

The source of income for the village is taxation, the current tax rate is 20%, and the grain or copper coins are handed over.

The initial grain output of Xia Village is 200 units per year, which can provide 200 people with a year of food. The 20% tax rate is to pay 40 units of grain to the lord.

These 40 units of grain are resources that Chu Tian can control as the lord. This grain can only feed 40 soldiers.

Fortunately, the lord did not need to pay the food and salary of the village warriors, otherwise Chu Tian would not be able to support the current village warrior troops.

With the addition of refugees, the idle farmland in the village was utilized and the output was increased.

There are many other attributes that affect agriculture, with special agricultural panels.

【Territory】: Xiacun

【Farmland used】: 60

【Idle Farmland】: 40

[Basic unit yield]: 10 (affected by geographical location, seed mass, crop type)

【Production efficiency】: 10/100

【Water control】: 70/100 (affected by climate, rivers, and water conservancy projects)

[Soil Fertilization]: 70/100 (Each round of harvest will reduce fertility, which can be improved by fertilization and fallow)

【Disaster】: None

【Harvest】: No

[Annual output]: 70x10x(1+0.1)x0.6x0.70=323.4

【Annual Tax】: 64.68

Chu Tian was a little surprised to see that there were still free farmland in the village. When the free farmland was full, Xia Village would try to reclaim new farmland.

There is no shortage of plains in the Yi River area, and there are rivers passing by, with excellent soil and soil, so it is not difficult to reclaim new farmland.

"It is only 65 units of grain collected in a year, which means that only 65 professional soldiers can be raised. No... I also have to support myself and Mulan..."

Chu Tian found that he and Mulan did not produce food. Mulan was a professional general, not a half-people and half-soldier village warrior. Chu Tian was the lord, so how could the lord go to the fields to farm in person... There was only a lord who was just a show and win people's hearts.

In other words, the current tax revenue can only support 63 professional soldiers.

Recruiting professional soldiers requires a barracks.

There are no barracks in the first-level villages.

In addition to grain, Xia Village's annual tax revenue also includes copper coins income from economic buildings such as grocery stores and iron ore income from first-level mining farms. These incomes are not as high as grain income, and only account for a small part.

Villages are no more important than towns with prosperous commercial conditions. Farmland is the most important. The food collected is converted into copper coins, and then copper coins are used to buy weapons, armor, war horses, and other purposes.

From this point of view, even 63 professional soldiers could not afford the grain collected in Xia Village because the monthly salary paid to professional soldiers has not been calculated.

With Xiacun's own strength, it is very slow to develop and other means must be used.

Chu Tian sold the meat he had obtained from his hunting to the villagers and obtained hundreds of copper coins, which was considered an additional income. Wild boar skin can be used to produce leather armor.

"It's not easy to become a qualified lord, just the money and food problem is a big deal."

Chu Tian was worried about money and food, and he also had to consider upgrading Xia Village to a second-level village. Several conditions must be met from a first-level village to a second-level village.

The first condition is that the population reaches 80% of the upper limit, that is, 240 villagers.

The second condition is that the village prosperity reaches 50.

The third condition is that people's hearts are greater than 50.

The fourth condition is that public security is greater than 50.

Xia Village has reached the second, third and fourth conditions. The first condition is the population short of 77 people. As for the second condition, the prosperity of the village, the current prosperity of Xia Village is 55/50, which is very exaggerated.

However, when did Xia Village become so prosperous? The prosperity in the morning was only 10 o'clock. Xia Village seems to have not changed much except for accepting 63 refugees.

Chu Tian carefully checked the source of territorial prosperity. Territorial prosperity is closely related to agriculture, commerce, culture, military, population, roads, and architecture.

According to the changes in Xia Village, the prosperity will not rise from 10 points to 55 points.

No, because of Mulan's addition, Xiacun's military score soared, so its prosperity also increased indirectly.

"In other words, as long as you try to recruit 77 refugees, Xia Village can be upgraded from a first-level village to a second-level village!"

Chu Tian's eyes lit up, but he didn't expect that the king-level general would have a bonus to prosperity. In the early stage, it could save Chu Tian a lot of effort.

Vacant people will be emitted from time to time near the village. According to Chutian's calculations, Xia Village can meet the population requirements in just two or three days and successfully upgrade to a second-level village.

Chu Tian checked the player rankings again. All the systems of the game are normal, and the ranking system is no exception.

The lord ranked first is still the "God will bless you" in the Holy See, with a total prosperity of 142.

The second-ranked lord was the first lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, "Rangran Lao Qin", who was widened by the first place, and the total prosperity was 70.

Ranked third was the lord of the Warring States Region, "Nobunaga's Ambition", with a total prosperity of 67.

Ranked fourth was the lord of the Persian region, "The Commander of the Immortal Army", with a total prosperity of 65.

Ranked fifth is the Vikings "One-Eyed Pirates", with a total prosperity of 65.

...

The lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, "I just want to farm well", ranked 786th with a total prosperity of 55.

The player whose id is called "I just want to farm well" is Chu Tian.

Because of a king-level general, Chu Tian successfully squeezed into the ranking list and ranked 786th.

"And there are hero rankings?"

Chu Tian saw that in addition to the prosperity rankings, there is also a hero rankings, which are ranked according to the overall attributes of the hero.

The first one is Edward, the special hero of the emperor-level "Black Prince" in the Holy See.

The second is Mulan, a special hero of the king in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The third one is the diamond-level special hero Amakusa Shiro from the Japan Warring States Region.

...

There are many lords in the world, so there are other lords who are lucky enough to get special heroes through recruitment orders.

The first hero, Edward, the Black Prince, lost about 40,000 French troops in the Battle of Cresey during the Hundred Years of the War of England and France, with less than a few hundred casualties and killed tens of thousands of enemies. The English longbowmen were well-known.

The third-ranked hero, Shiro Amakusa, was the leader of the uprising army during the Tokugawa Shogunate era. He started the "Shirahara Rebellion". The shogunate mobilized more than 100,000 vassal troops to siege the uprising army for several months, and tens of thousands of casualties were killed and killed to capture the city that Shiro Amakusa defended.

Chu Tian seriously suspected that the emperor-level hero Black Prince was recruited by the top player in the Holy See, "Gods will bless you", otherwise his territorial prosperity would not have suddenly increased as much as the second place.

"There is no need to envy him. Xia Village's heroes rank second, and have surpassed countless lords."

Chu Tian closed the rankings and looked at the achievements system he had obtained. One of them achieved the "Four Great Women" with a completion rate of 25%.

In addition to the four great women, there are other achievements. However, most of the achievements are difficult to accomplish, such as the Seven Miracles, which require the collection of seven special buildings: the Pyramid of Khufu in Egypt, the Sky Garden of Babylon, the Temple of Artemis, the Colossus of Zeus, the Mausoleum of Mosoras, the Colossus of the Sun God in Rhodes, and the Lighthouse of Alexandria.
