Unstoppable [Quick Transmigration]

Dengzhou City is only so big, it simply cannot accommodate so many people.

Now that the cement has been produced, Meng Zezhi simply redraws a piece of land outside Dengzhou City, encloses the wharf and iron mines, and builds a new city.

Demographic advantages are finally beginning to emerge.

20 people, [-] old and weak children are responsible for weaving fishing nets, catching the sea after low tide, cooking and drying fish.

11 are young and strong, 3 are working in mining areas, 2 are working in cement factories, brick factories and shipyards, 2 are responsible for fishing, and 4 are responsible for building houses.

The [-] women and children also have their own division of labor, killing fish, cooking salt, and reclaiming wasteland...

In addition, Meng Zezhi also recruited a large number of workers from Dengzhou City and assigned them to various positions.

The 20 taels of silver he borrowed from Shi Xiuqi was used to pay these people's wages in addition to buying food.

Because the prices in the city are high and there is a shortage of food, the money he copied from local tyrants has already been spent.

After all, if the price of food is high, the common people cannot afford food. Even before that, Meng Zezhi gave them a lot of travel expenses.

Therefore, in order to appease the hearts of the people and prevent riots, Meng Zezhi had to buy grain at a high price and sell it to these people at a low price.

This is also the main reason why these people can always support Meng Zezhi.

Fortunately, these 20 people do not need to pay wages.

——Because Meng Zezhi now implements a strict rationing system.

That is, the amount of labor completed by each person per day is calculated as work points, and work point tickets are issued. More work, more pay, less work, less pay, and all daily necessities are also purchased with work point tickets, including those houses that are still under construction.

Therefore, the system of work points took root in Dengzhou very smoothly.

Of course, it is also Gong Sheng's 'credit'.

But things were not all smooth sailing.

He Heng said: "There are two disadvantages of wooden boats. One is too heavy, and the other is too brittle. Once it hits a reef or encounters a big fish, it is easy to hit a big hole. After half a month, I will return to the factory for repairs. There are more ships than new built, seriously hindering our progress."

The bearded man also said: "It's all the same. Mining is much more difficult than fishing. Every piece of ore has to be smashed with a lot of effort before being transported to the iron factory."

Seeing this, other people also said: "Who is not? Bricks are not much lighter than ore. Even if the ground has been paved with concrete roads, basically dozens of trolleys are reimbursed every day because the wheels are worn out."

……

Hearing this, Gong Sheng couldn't help but murmured: "If the wooden boat is inconvenient, you can consider getting the iron boat out."

"It would be great if there were explosives, mining should be much easier."

"Wooden wheels are of course not resistant to friction. It would be nice to have rubber tires."

……

Hearing these words, He Heng and others all looked at Gong Sheng.

Gong Sheng: "..."

Suddenly, he felt as if he had dug a lot of holes for himself.

Sure enough, He Heng and the others immediately said: "Then it's hard work for you, brother."

"When the elder brother researches the explosives/drugs, I will definitely treat the elder brother to drink, the daughter of 20 years is red."

……

Although they don't know what explosives and rubber are, but they have experience in cement, almost everyone feels that if the things Gong Sheng said can be made, it will be of great benefit to them.

Gong Sheng: "..."

really!

He slumped directly on the seat and reached out to touch his face.

Don't ask, you will regret it if you ask.

Then it was a month in a flash.

Shifu.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce wiped the sweat from his forehead, and drank the tea on the side: "I went to the new city next door just now, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe it. In just two months, such a big city has already been half built."

Hearing this, other people also said: "I also went to see it. The thing called cement they made is really miraculous. Just mix sand and gravel, and a section of the city wall can be built within three days."

"And the paved road is strong and durable."

"I also heard that the shipyard has launched eight large ships a few days ago, and now they can basically catch nearly 15 catties of sea fish every day."

"The surname He seems to be quite talkative, but I didn't expect that he was ruthless behind his back. When he heard that there was not enough wood for shipbuilding, he turned around and took away the ancestral graves and ancestral houses of Shao Qing's group."

Shao Qing was the former magistrate of Dengzhou.

"As for the iron mine, I estimate that at least 5000 catties of pig iron can be produced every day, because I found that all the troops under Meng Zezhi's command have now been equipped with new-made weapons."

"There is also coal, we have seen that thing before, and everyone knows that it will poison people when it burns, but once it is in the hands of Meng Zezhi and the others, it becomes a treasure that is more durable than charcoal. How did it happen."

"Now in Chencun, hundreds of large pots are set up to boil salt day and night. I estimate that the daily output is more than [-] catties."

"Because there is coal, there is no need for firewood. I heard that when the weather gets cold, the new city will directly use charcoal to smoke fish."

If this is put in the past, who is willing to do it.

"And Xincheng has recruited more than 3000 long-term workers from Dengzhou in the past few days."

Who let Meng Ze know that the recruitment conditions offered there are too good, and the most indispensable thing these days is the poor.

It's just that if this continues, Dengzhou will be hollowed out by Xincheng sooner or later.

In the end, I only heard the chairman of the chamber of commerce say: "How could I have imagined that Meng Zezhi would settle those 20 people so easily."

Think back to when the 20 people first entered the city, people in Dengzhou city were still hostile to them, because they thought they were refugees and worried that they would cause trouble in Dengzhou.

As a result, as soon as Meng Zezhi bought grain at a high price and sold it to the common people at a low price, and the development of the new city was booming, they wished they could become a member of the new city.

That's why, in just two months, [-] people from Dengzhou went to Xincheng.

"At the beginning, we also said that if Meng Zezhi could properly resettle these 20 people, we would support him."

"But now it's not a question of whether we are willing to support him, but a question of whether he is willing to use us."

Having said so much, the last sentence is actually useful.

The others fell silent immediately.

After all, Meng Zezhi now has a strong army and a strong horse, and holds the three sharp weapons of salt, iron, and coal mines. It is no longer the time when they need their help in everything.

What's more, it is said that Meng Zezhi still holds a gold mine in his hand.

Until Shi Xiuqi said: "As long as we are willing to surrender, Meng Zezhi will definitely be willing to use us. After all, he has limited manpower now."

"Too."

In fact, everyone is aware of this.

Because the icing on the cake is nothing like giving charcoal in the snow, it is related to their future status in Meng Zezhi.

It's because they were too arrogant and complacent at the time.

"However, one yard counts for one yard. We should still be wary of Meng Zezhi crossing the river and tearing down the bridge."

The president of the Chamber of Commerce couldn't help but said.

It's no wonder that he was too cautious, it was Shao Qing's plan for them, so he had to be cautious.

When the others heard this, they all said one after another: "So Xiu Qi, you must hide those three thousand sailors well."

That was their last resort.

Because that navy was created by Shi Xiuqi, and it has been in Shi Xiuqi's hands all the time, so they belong to the one that is stained.

Hearing this, Shi Xiuqi couldn't help frowning.

But he finally nodded and said solemnly: "I know."

Unexpectedly, the next night, Meng Zezhi lay on his body, bit his ear and said, "Vice President Shi, I heard that you have a sailor in your hand, can you lend it to me?"

The corners of Shi Xiuqi's eyes were crimson, and there was a faint line of tears remaining. Because he was worried that Meng Zezhi would make trouble again, he panted heavily, and said in a daze, "Okay, I'll lend it to you."

So much so that the next morning, Shi Xiuqi recalled this matter: "..."

But Meng Zezhi returned to the mansion contentedly.

After all, with this ready-made navy, they can save a lot of effort.

Gong Sheng and the others had already been waiting in the lobby. When they saw Meng Zezhi coming in, they all stood up immediately, very excited: "Father."

They came here today to discuss the dispatch of troops.

After all, it is only a matter of time before the new city is completed, and after three months of practice, they are now strong and strong, which is the best time to expand.

Meng Zezhi's request was simple: "Conquer the entire territory of Shandong first, and then confiscate party items."

After all, the party's 10,000+ soldiers are far from being able to resist their [-] soldiers, so they still have to figure it out slowly.

Then he began to assign tasks: "Dengzhou and Xincheng each retain 3000 troops, and Acropolis—"

"The end is here."

Acropolis immediately knelt down on one knee, his voice sonorous and powerful.

"You are the commander in chief, leading fifteen thousand soldiers and horses to march."

The Acropolis couldn't hide his excitement: "The last general takes orders."

Meng Zezhi turned his head to look at He Heng and the others: "The mine, new city and shipyard will be handed over to He Heng in the future, Chang Ming, Song Hai—"

This is the name of Beard and Red Nose, who were in charge of the mine before.

The three of He Heng immediately fell to their knees: "The end is here."

Meng Zezhi: "The two of you will be transferred back to the city first, responsible for defending the city and training troops, and strive to recruit another [-] soldiers within the year."

The three of He Heng: "Follow orders | The last general takes orders."

In the end, Meng Zezhi said, "As for the salt, coal, cement and dried fish produced in Xincheng, all of them will be handled by the chamber of commerce."

"what?"

Hearing this, Wei Cheng and the others were all taken aback, they looked at each other in blank dismay.

The originally excited atmosphere changed instantly.

Meng Zezhi: "What?"

He Heng said: "Father, are we not going to deal with the chamber of commerce anymore?"

Although they are quite happy to cooperate with the chamber of commerce these days, it is not ruled out that the chamber of commerce wants to confuse them.

And as long as they think of the thousands of sailors hidden in the hands of the Chamber of Commerce, they feel like they are on their backs.

——The Chamber of Commerce still has thousands of sailors hidden in its hands. He discovered it and told Meng Zezhi.

After all, it is impossible for thousands of sailors and dozens of ships to appear out of thin air, not to mention that all those ships basically need to be repaired every once in a while.

So no matter how well the chamber of commerce concealed it, after He Heng took over the shipyard, he still discovered some clues.

Meng Zezhi: "..."

He said, "Against the chamber of commerce?"

None of the people present were stupid, and they immediately understood what they might have misunderstood.

Everyone was silent, and then explained the ins and outs of the matter.

Meng Zezhi: "..."

Meng Zezhi didn't know what to say. He never expected that such a big misunderstanding would be caused in the end because of the adoptive son.

But that's not the most important thing.

The most important thing is whether Shi Xiuqi had the same misunderstanding.

Thinking of this, even though Meng Zezhi had made up his mind, he only said, "Because I plan to marry with the Chamber of Commerce."

"what?"

The crowd was stunned again.

But after thinking about it, it would be best if the Chamber of Commerce could be used by them. After all, multiple subordinates are better than multiple enemies, so marriage is indeed a good choice.

However, they subconsciously thought that Meng Zezhi wanted to choose the right one among their adoptive sons to marry the daughter of a powerful person in the chamber of commerce.

So they all looked at Gong Sheng.

After all, they are basically married.

Gong Sheng: "..."

Gong Sheng was stunned for a moment.

Isn't this an arranged marriage, a blind marriage?

Gong Sheng...Of course I don't mind.

Just kidding, he lived until he was 30 in his previous life and couldn't find a partner.

At that time, I didn't know that single dogs were screaming for the country and hoping that the country would send them a date.

Now that the dream has come true, it's too late for him to be happy.

So he immediately looked at Meng Zezhi happily.

Then I heard Meng Zezhi say: "For example, Vice President Shi and I."

"Of course, it's mainly me, Vice President Xinyue Shi."

Gong Sheng: "..."

Acropolis: "..."

He Heng: "..."

……

Gong Sheng was in a trance.

Not only because the daughter-in-law who got it is gone, but also because——

"Father, you are so hot!"

Not only did he break his sleeves, but he also fell in love with a widow who was more open than a modern man like him.

Wei Cheng and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, because they did not support the marriage between Meng Zezhi and Shi Xiuqi from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, it is a violation of ethics for two men to be together. It is inevitable that they will be criticized by the world. The key is that the two men will not have children. Even if they succeed in the rebellion, who should they pass on to?

Not to mention other follow-up troubles.

What's more, they don't have to be from the chamber of commerce.

As if he had guessed what they were thinking, Meng Zezhi only said: "By the way, I forgot to tell you that Vice President Shi proposed to lend us the matter of the shipyard before, and I took it back one after another. The more than 80 taels of silver was also given by Vice President Shi, and he is also planning to hand over the three thousand sailors to us."

Gong Sheng: "..."

Acropolis: "..."

……

They immediately fell silent.

After all, eating people has a short mouth and is soft on people.

What's more, Meng Zezhi is their adoptive father, and a son absolutely has no reason to talk about his father's marriage.

The most important thing is that the shipyard was two months ago.

That is to say, at that time, Meng Zezhi had already hooked up with Shi Xiuqi, ah bah, they had a relationship.

Thinking of this, He Heng and the others covered their mouths and coughed lightly at the same time.

Gong Sheng even lowered his head directly.

Father, your heroic image has been completely shattered.

So they just said: "It's all up to the adoptive father."

Meng Zezhi was even more satisfied, and then he rode his horse to Shi's mansion openly and aboveboard.

Seeing that it was Meng Zezhi who was coming to the door, the guard at the door was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the corner of the courtyard wall, obviously not expecting that Meng Zezhi would actually walk through the main entrance today.

Then he came to his senses and quickly welcomed Meng Zezhi inside.

Shi Xiuqi was still doubting his life at first, but he saw Meng Zezhi pushing the door and entering in the next second.

The more Shi Xiuqi thought about it, the more he felt that Meng Zezhi had bad intentions, so he directly threw the pillow in his arms at Meng Zezhi: "What are you doing here, I don't think there is anything in my hand that is worthy of Mr. Meng's racking his brains. Get cheated."

really!

Meng Zezhi directly reached out to catch the pillow with a helpless expression.

Then he went directly to Shi Xiuqi, met his eyes that were glowing with fire, lifted his robe, and knelt down on one knee: "Actually, I'm not here to borrow anything, I'm here to pay the debt."

Shi Xiuqi was taken aback: "What?"

Meng Zezhi immediately smiled and said, "It's just that I can't afford to pay back the shipyard or the 80 taels of silver.

Then I saw him take out a red booklet from his pocket.

"So I want to use this to pay off the debt. I wonder if Vice President Shi will agree?"

Shi Xiuqi subconsciously took the red booklet, opened it, and saw the word marriage letter impressively written on it.

Shi Xiuqi took a short breath, and he continued to look down: "From now on, we will have a good relationship, we will make a good couple, the red rope will be tied early, and the white heads will be together forever..."

Underneath is the private seal of Meng Zezhi.

Shi Xiuqi looked up at Meng Zezhi in disbelief.

Meng Zezhi only said: "However, even if Vice President Shi wants to refuse, it is impossible, because the people under my command already know about our affairs."

In other words, Meng Zezhi had no way out.

Thinking of this, the empty space in Shi Xiuqi's heart was instantly filled.

He couldn't help but rushed towards Meng Zezhi.

Meng Zezhi directly embraced the man.

Regardless of how much discussion there is from the outside world, all in all, the matter between Shi Xiuqi and Meng Zezhi has finally come to a successful conclusion.

In mid-October, the army set out.

Because Weicheng and the others didn't have much actual combat experience, the battle lasted for more than two months.

Fortunately, on the New Year's Day, Meng Zezhi finally received the good news from the front line.

Meng Zezhi unfolded the battle report and looked at it: "Report to my adoptive father, the city lived up to his expectations, defeated the Huaiyang army on December 27, killed [-] enemy troops, captured [-] enemies, and captured the entire territory of Shandong. "

Seeing this, Meng Zezhi nodded in satisfaction.

Facts have proved that Acropolis is indeed a general.

Then he continued to look down:

"In addition, 23 new adoptive sons have been added to this war city for the adoptive father. They will lead all the adoptive brothers back to Dengzhou to pay New Year's greetings to the adoptive father."

Meng Zezhi: "..."
