Zhi Xuan
Chapter 28
When it comes to family interests, the efficiency of the clan will become extremely high.
On the fifth day of the court meeting, the list of soldiers supported by each family was sent to Zhixuan Mansion, including the background of the soldiers, whether they had a family name, the population size of the family, where they lived now, and whether they had been on the battlefield and how many enemies they had killed on the battlefield. There are detailed records.
The bamboo slips recording the information of thousands of soldiers are piled up into several hills, and it takes a lot of effort to read them all.However, the assigned subordinate doctor is not yet in place, and Zhi Xuan has no subordinate officials, so he can only do everything by himself.
When he went through all the bamboo slips, he felt the deepest pain in his hands, arms, and shoulders, and his legs were sore and numb from sitting for a long time.
The clans are all used to sitting upright, and Zhi Xuan is in his own home, so he can't maintain etiquette all the time, and he can't sit at his desk for a long time, so the numbness in his legs is naturally unavoidable.
After reading the last scroll of bamboo slips, Zhi Xuan let out a long sigh of relief.
For this period of time, he has been turning over the bamboo slips in his dreams, and when he sees the bamboo slips, he will reflexively hurt his wrist, which is really not ordinary.
It's not over yet.
Following the soldiers, support materials from various families were also delivered one after another, mainly food, leather armor and weapons.Zhixuan Mansion couldn't fit inside, so it was temporarily placed in the warehouse provided by Su Hu, including the assembled soldiers. Su Hu and Fan Xu also helped to arrange a temporary camp outside the city to facilitate the counting of people and identification.
Some soldiers needed to come from the clan fiefdoms, and they encountered heavy rain along the way, which inevitably delayed the time.
Knowing the situation, Zhi Xuan decided to postpone the departure date, and wait until all the personnel are in order before leaving for the fiefdom.
For this reason, he formally submitted a document to Marquis Nishihara, explaining the reasons behind it.With the help of Liuqing to talk about Xiang, even if Marquis Xiyuan is dissatisfied, he cannot be kicked out of Xidu City immediately.
"Gather craftsmen and make a cart as soon as possible. Collect more linen and straw mats, it doesn't matter if it's more expensive."
Zhixuan went to the warehouse to check the quantity of supplies, and thought that the existing grain trucks were not suitable for use, so he summoned the government order to rush to make larger vehicles to transport grain.
"promise!"
The magistrate listened carefully to Zhi Xuan's request, and with the confidence in his mind, took the animal skin that Zhi Xuan gave him, and quickly went down to make arrangements.
Due to the mass production of gold ornaments and copper furnaces, the Fuling has nearly a hundred craftsmen under his command.A small part of them came from the fief, and more were common people in the city.
These craftsmen have high or low skills, but without exception, they are all-rounders. They can make gold ornaments, cast bronzes, carve jade, and also do carpentry.
According to common sense, goldsmiths, stonemasons, and carpenters should each have a division of labor and specialize in one.The craftsmen summoned by the government order broke Zhi Xuan's common sense.
Regarding Zhi Xuan's question, the government order was even more puzzled, isn't this a matter of course?
"As a craftsman, it should be so."
According to the government order, if the craftsman doesn't learn more skills, how can he support his family?It's like a soldier who can only bow and arrow but not sword, isn't it a joke?
"Ok."
Zhi Xuan was persuaded by the government order.
Generally speaking, the higher the craftsman's ability, the better for him.These craftsmen will be of great use when they start to transform farm tools in the fief.
Under the arrangement of the government order, the cart requested by Zhixuan was quickly completed.
The body is twice the size of the existing grain truck, the board is made of hard wood, the axle and wheels are additionally reinforced, and the bearing capacity is two to three times that of the original grain truck.
There are detachable guardrails on both sides of the vehicle body, and specially made cross rails and wooden bars in front of the vehicle to facilitate the traction of horses and cattle.
The craftsmen didn't waste the materials left over from the carts, they picked the ones that could be used, and hurriedly manufactured a batch of wheelbarrows.
These wheelbarrows were mentioned by Zhixuan by chance, and the government order kept it in mind, and relayed it to the craftsman, and the finished product was obtained on the same day.
"There is no need for livestock, one person can use it, good, great good!"
The magistrate obviously prefers a wheelbarrow to a cart that needs to be pulled by oxen and horses.It can be pushed by one person, it is extremely convenient to use, and it is not too wonderful to distribute it to slaves!
Seeing the happy expression on the government order's face, and listening to him eloquently explain how to use advanced tools to squeeze the toiling masses to the greatest extent, Zhi Xuan couldn't bear to look directly at him.
What made him even more unbearable to look directly at was that the person being squeezed was actually very happy!
After trying the wheelbarrow, the servants and slaves all said: "It's a good thing, it saves labor and can transport more food, it's really a good thing!"
What's more, after knowing that the unicycle was proposed by Gong Zixuan, everyone even praised: Gongzi Xuan Renai is really a good person!
"My lord is benevolent!" said the government order and You Rong Yan.
Zhi Xuan didn't speak, his face hurt.
Even though he is a decadent feudal slave owner, he cannot oppress the kind-hearted working people like this.
After thinking about it, he felt really sorry, so Zhi Xuan ordered more food for the servants and slaves.When the fief is reached, give the servants some food and linen.If the servant is willing to open up wasteland, the tax will be exempted for three years, and only half the tax will be paid for the next five years.Slaves do not have such preferential treatment for the time being.
The world is like this, and Zhi Xuan doesn't want to treat them differently.He can only feed the slaves as much as possible within the scope of the system and live a better life.
Unexpectedly, this move brought unexpected results.
When Zhixuan's order was effectively carried out, and the servants and slaves opened their bellies and laughed, the news spread like wildfire. Everyone in the city knew that the young master Xuanren not only ordered people to build labor-saving tools, but also gave them to everyone. Can eat millet rice.
The news spread more and more widely, and the common people were dubious, things are really so good?
In order to confirm the rumors, several people came together to inquire about the news during the meal.
At that time, most of the materials in the warehouse had been removed. The servants and slaves put the tools and ropes together, and each held a wooden bowl and lined up in a long line.
Soon, a servant from the Prince's Mansion pulled a cart, and removed large wooden barrels emitting heat from the cart.
The wooden barrel was placed on the mat and made a thumping sound.
The waiter didn't care about wiping his sweat, so he picked up an arm-length wooden spoon from the cart, and lifted the lid with a cloth. Immediately, everyone saw the delicious millet rice and hot soup.
Gudong!
The common people who were inquiring couldn't help swallowing when they smelled the fragrance.Looking around again, the few people who came with him were also like him, staring at the millet rice and hot soup without blinking their eyes.
When the waiter found them, he didn't go forward to drive them away, but knocked on the spoon a few times to make the servants and slaves line up.
According to the usual practice, each person has a bowl of corn and rice, which is not enough to serve again.In addition, Yufu has a spoonful of oily broth, and if you are lucky, you can also eat delicious oily residue.The slave is wild vegetable soup, with a little meat oil added, the same fragrance is tangy.
The working slaves lived in the western capital all year round, and their treatment was already much better than other slaves, but they seldom had a full meal, let alone hot soup with meat oil.
More than [-]% of them were sent to Zhixuan before they knew what it was like to have a full meal.
Zhi Xuan knew very well that the reason why he did this was because he didn't want to lose his heart, and he didn't think of anything more.However, both servants and slaves regard it as kindness, and work harder when they are full.
Regardless of the slave husband, it is extremely rare for a slave to burst out with such enthusiasm.
At the end of the day, it's nothing but a full meal.
However, such a full meal, so far, only Zhi Xuan is willing to give it.
The servants and slaves ate very fast, put down their rice bowls, and did not intend to rest, and continued to work hard without the waiter's urging.
"My lord has an order, you can rest for half an hour after the meal." The waiter said while carrying the wooden barrel back to the car.
He was ignored at all.
The servants and slaves were immersed in their work, and the two bags of grain were easily lifted up, and they took big strides, as if they were holding back their energy to compare who was faster,
The waiter had long been experienced, and knew that it was useless to say it, so two people were left to guard the warehouse, and the rest pushed the cart away.
Witnessing the whole process, the ordinary people who were waiting and watching looked at me and I looked at you, and they all saw the determination in each other's eyes.
After they returned home, they told their relatives what they saw, and the next day they took the initiative to find the lead servant, hoping to work for Young Master Xuan.
The servant didn't dare to be the master, so he informed the government order, but the government order didn't think it was a big deal, so he didn't report it to Zhixuan, and ordered: "If you come, you will accept it, the same meal as the servant, and some linen. If you don't want the linen, Just replace it with millet."
"promise!"
The servant took the order and left, but the government order turned around to do other things, and quickly put this matter behind him.
What the magistrate didn't expect was that five days later, the servant came to him again and reported a remarkable thing.
"What did you say?" The magistrate was taken aback, almost losing his grip on the carrot in his hand.
At present, radish is called Lu Fu, which is not only edible but also regarded as medicinal material.With Dr. Sang around, there will be no shortage of this kind of spicy and refreshing food in Zhixuan Mansion.
"I dare not lie." The waiter was sweating on his forehead, and he didn't expect the matter to develop to this point.
"You and I go to see the young master!" The magistrate made a decisive decision, ate the radish in a few bites, wiped his mouth, and brought the servants to see Zhi Xuan.
In the study, Zhi Xuan was flipping through the bamboo slips sent by Fan Xu. On it were not only the talents sent by Fan, but also the information of the ten subordinate doctors assigned to him.
As soon as I saw half of it, the government order brought the servants to report that something happened!
"What's the matter?" Zhi Xuan put down the bamboo slips.
The government order pushed the waiter a little bit, seeing that he was stuttering and couldn't explain clearly, so he could only tell the whole story by himself.
It turned out that because Zhi Xuan's treatment was so good, in just a few days, hundreds of ordinary people came to work for him.
Not counting work, when they learned from the servants that following Zhixuan to the fiefdom would give them food and linen, and they would not pay taxes for three years after opening up wasteland, these ordinary people couldn't help but be moved and wanted to go with them.
It's nothing if there are few people. The problem is that most of the workers are thinking.Of course they will not go by themselves, they must bring their families with them.As a result, at least two to three thousand people will be relocated.
Although Western Capital City is a big city with a population of more than 3000, two to [-] people go out at a time, and most of them are middle-aged people who can work. This is not a trivial matter!
After hearing the cause and effect of the matter, Zhi Xuan remained silent for a long time.
The common people are different from the people of the country, and also different from the slaves.Strictly speaking, they do not need to perform military service like Chinese people, nor do they have personal freedom like servants and slaves.If they are determined to follow Zhi Xuan, no one can stop them.
Thinking of this, Zhi Xuan tapped his fingers unconsciously.
Did he inadvertently scrape Xi Yuanhou's land again?
He swears, this time it really wasn't intentional, it's more real than pearls!
On the fifth day of the court meeting, the list of soldiers supported by each family was sent to Zhixuan Mansion, including the background of the soldiers, whether they had a family name, the population size of the family, where they lived now, and whether they had been on the battlefield and how many enemies they had killed on the battlefield.
