General Qin

"You belong to Gengshi, too. It's cold outside, come in and get warm."

As the big man said, he stretched out his hand and patted the pitch-black withered straw mat next to him, meaning to let Zhao Tuo pass by.

"promise."

Zhao Tuo responded, and walked into the house with his luggage.

The man who spoke was about eight feet tall, aged in his thirties, with a square face and thick eyebrows, and a simple and honest smile on his face when he spoke.

From Zhao Tuo's point of view, this kind of person generally has no bad intentions and is very enthusiastic in doing things.

Moreover, Zhao Tuo noticed that the man's hair was wrapped in a brown cloth, and he was actually an official.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Tuo put down the things, the big man introduced himself enthusiastically.

"My name is Zhu. Zhu of Zhuzi. I'm from Yangmuli, Shangyuan Township."

Zhao Tuo smiled and said, "Coincidentally, I am also from Shangyuan."

"Hey, where are you from?"

"In the morning sun."

Zhu looked surprised, and smiled at another black and thin man beside him: "Hei Hip, did you see, they are from our Shangyuan Township again, there are three of them here."

After finishing speaking, Zhu turned his head again, pointed at the black and thin man and introduced: "This man is called Heizhi, and he is from Moshili, Shangyuan Township. When his mother gave birth to him, she found that the baby's butt was black, so she named him Heizhi. Black ass, hahaha."

Several other people in the room also laughed, and a young man with slightly fair skin joked: "You can show us the black butt, is your butt black or not?"

Hei Hip wasn't afraid at all, he really got up from the earth platform, pouted his buttocks to everyone in the room, and said with a smile: "Come on, Nai Gong was afraid that you would fail. If you want to see it, Nai Gong will show it to you."

A series of cheerful laughter sounded in the room, full of a happy atmosphere.

Zhao Tuo also laughed.

The names of the common people in Qianshou in this era are quite strange, because they do not have a surname or surname, and generally only have one name, and most of them are chosen at will.

Or point to the surrounding things, such as "stone, mountain, pillar".

Or some kind of animal or plant, such as "sunflower, pheasant, bird".

Also, according to the child's condition or your own mood when giving birth, such as the "black butt" in front of you, or "surprise, joy, and sorrow".

Of course, there are still some people who are too lazy to name them, so they just let their babies be called after their brothers and uncles.

The eldest is called Bo, the second is called Zhong, and it goes on all the way until the youngest is called Ji.

As for the surname and family name, that is something only for nobles.

Of course, with the melee among the countries, many former nobles became commoners, and their descendants also bear surnames.

Just like Chen She, Wu Guang, and Liu Ji, you can tell that their ancestors were also rich just by hearing their names.

After everyone finished laughing, Black Butt came to his senses, pointed at Zhao Tuo and said, "No. You said you are from Shangyuan Township, but your accent doesn't sound like it."

"I'm Laimin."

Zhao Tuo explained, and handed the "test" in his hand to Zhu to have a look.

Zhu glanced at it and nodded his head: "Yes, it says we are from Shangyuan Township. Although we are from Laimin, we are also from the same township."

Laimin, that is, recruiting people, generally refers to immigrants from the six countries.

Attracted by the policies of the Qin State, they left their homeland and went to the Qin State to settle down. They would be allocated some land and exempted from corvee labor for a period of time, allowing them to concentrate on production.

This policy has been implemented in Qin State for decades. It has attracted a large number of people from the Three Jins with very favorable immigration treatment, which has greatly improved the national strength of Qin State.

It's just that with the progress of the annexation war, this policy is on the verge of being abolished, because Qin no longer needs to attract immigrants from the six countries.

When the six kingdoms are destroyed, all the common people in the world will be Qin people.

As soon as Zhu explained, everyone suddenly realized that Zhao Tuo's accent was no surprise.

After that, Zhu began to introduce Zhao Tuo again.

"It's long and short. They're two brothers."

The hay mats of the two brothers, long and short, were next to each other. When they heard Zhu's introduction, they all nodded to Zhao Tuo.

As expected, one is tall and the other is short.

But it was different from what Zhao Tuo thought.

The shorter brother is only six feet eight inches, but he is called "Long".

The taller brother is seven feet two inches, but is called "short".

According to Qin law, men of the right age in the same family cannot be recruited at the same time. But it is a pity that the two have already grown up and separated, and there is still a young son with their parents, so this time the two brothers, long and short, were recruited together.

"This is Ah Niu, from Xiayuan Township."

Ah Niu smiled at Zhao Tuo to show his friendliness. He was in his twenties and had a lot of pimples on his face.

"This is a rock."

Shitou nodded without making a sound, looking at the corner with dull eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

"This is Xiaobai, who is also from Xiayuan Township."

Xiaobai is indeed very white, the clothes on his body are better than the others, and his family background should be okay.

Although it is not as good as the pampered noble children, the complexion on Xiaobai's face is much paler than that of the other people in the room.

He is about the same size as Zhao Tuo, and has a very cheerful personality. He was the one who told everyone about Jing Ke's assassination of the Qin Dynasty and made fun of black buttocks.

Seeing Zhao Tuo looking over, Xiaobai smiled and said, "Before you came in, I was the whitest in this room. Once you came in, I think you should be called Xiaobai."

Zhao Tuo couldn't help laughing, and joked: "It's not certain, maybe you are paler than me."

"Okay, then take off your clothes and let me see who is the fairest."

Xiaobai saw that Zhao Tuo was also an easy-going person, so he didn't worry about his duke title, so he joked.

Zhao Tuo smiled and said, "Come on, if you want to see it, you can go to see the black buttocks. My body is for the bride to see in the future."

As soon as these words came out, laughter rang out in the room again, and with just a few chats and jokes, everyone's relationship has been brought closer.

But there are always untimely voices.

Just as everyone was laughing, a sharp cold snort sounded from the corner: "Why are you laughing, this is a military camp. It's not a place where you scumbags are noisy. If you keep shouting, I'll sue you."

The laughter stopped at once.

Zhao Tuo followed the voice and saw that the speaker was sitting at the corner of the earthen platform on the left. He was a fat man in his thirties, with a round face and a tuft of beard under his chin. He was in good condition.

In addition to his clothes, he also wore a fur. Although it was not very new, it was much better than the others in the room.

What caught Zhao Tuo's attention in particular was that his hair was also wrapped in a brown cloth, and he was the third gentleman besides Zhao Tuo and Zhu.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, he sneered and turned his head away. Before turning his head, he gave Zhao Tuo a hard look.

Zhao Tuo was thoughtful, the fat man might not be too happy about his arrival.

Just as there was silence in the earthen house, the concealed wooden door was pushed open again.

A thin boy staggered in.

"Are you from Gengshi too?"

Zhu enthusiastically asked, they were only short of the last person, and they were full.

When the young man heard the question, he neither nodded nor spoke, but silently held up the wooden stick in his hand for everyone to see.

Zhao Tuo's eyes narrowed instantly.

The boy's wooden stick had his name written on it.

involved.

The policy of laimin comes from "Shang Junshu·Laimin", and the academic circles believe that this article may have been written in the late Zhaoxiang King. There are still many debates about whether Qin implemented the policy of laiming with the people. The novels are selected according to the needs of the plot, which is only the opinion of the family.
