If you don't farm, you will be smashed [End Times]

It was also Xia Chen's luck. Among the residents gathered in the outer city, there are really many technical talents.

Thinking about it, most of these people were originally urban residents, and most of them who could settle in the city were small businessmen or craftsmen. Instead, it was a small rural village like Qinghe Village where most of them were farmers.

The recruitment notice clearly stated that skilled jobs are given priority in admissions, and Xia Chen did not restrict which skills, so those with skills actively registered.

Xia Chen was worried that they had some special talents and were embarrassed to say or he didn't realize it, so he specifically mentioned that if they are good at anything, they can report it, and maybe they can find out some talents.

So the people who came to register formed a long queue, and Meng Mingjun made records until he collapsed, regardless of today being the school day, he brought his father, uncle and those students to help.

They have also done some simple registration work before, and now they know more and more characters, so it is not a problem to recruit a strong man for this kind of thing.

Even the desks were moved from the students' desks, lined up in a long row, and registered on the large flat ground at the Wengcheng.

Xia Chen looked around and saw that they were doing well, so he simply asked Meng Mingjun to register for the census by the way, and took this opportunity to record the specific situation of the residents in the outer city, and he would get a household registration book later.

He opened his mouth to say something, but instantly increased the huge workload, Junior Brother Meng almost broke the pen.Since he came to work under Xia Chen, his previous amiable appearance has been polished away. He can never finish his work, and he is in a state of wanting to breathe fire every day.

Facing the anger suppressed by his junior brother forcibly, Xia Chen shrank his neck and found an excuse to run away immediately.

When the young lady was sent to him to ask for paper, and told him that the paper in the warehouse had run out, Xia Chen slapped his head, really confused, and even forgot about making paper.

On the way back, he collected a lot of paper, with various types and prices. Later, the shops, mission offices and schools needed paper, so he took a large amount and piled it in the warehouse, and went to pick it up directly when he needed it.

The shop and mission office are fine, but the school is a big user of paper. In the past, the warehouse had enough stock, and no one came to him. Xia Chen forgot about it. Now that he thinks about it, he must rush to make paper.

He still has some in his space, which can last for a while, but not much. He avoided people and went back to the house to fill a gourd of paper with the gourd doll, and asked the young mother to send it to Meng Mingjun, and then took a piece of paper himself, Begin to recall the papermaking method.

Papermaking is one of the four great inventions of China. Even if you haven't seen it, you must have heard of it. Xia Chen searched desperately in his memory to find some bits and pieces of knowledge.

He knows that bamboo, bark and forage can be used to make paper, and straw can also be used to make paper. Bamboo paper needs to be soaked for a long time to wash off the green skin on the bamboo, so he will not consider it for the time being.

For the latter two, the paper made of straw is mostly wool ice paper, yellow board paper, etc., which are rough and not suitable for writing, but they are very useful and easy to obtain materials, so it is worth doing.

Xia Chen knows a little more about the process of making paper from bark and forage. Although the details are unclear, he still knows the general process. It is the most feasible method at present.

The logging work has been going on, and the leftover scraps left by the carpenter's house can be used to make paper without fear of waste.

With such a plan, there is still a shortage of people, and we can only start recruiting workers after the junior brother has finished the statistics.

That night, Meng Mingjun, who had been busy all day, sent Xia Chen several thick stacks of paper with a dark face, and told him that he would rewrite the recruitment notice tomorrow morning, hoping that he would read it early and tell him the manpower needed.

Xia Chen touched his nose and understood that this was revenge from his junior brother. If you give me extra work, then stay up late with me.

Thinking about his hard work, Xia Chen sent him away with a good voice, and then immediately looked at the materials recorded that day.

Because the recorders were different, these papers were mixed with all kinds of dog crawling characters, and some of them were recorded in a mess. Xia Chen's eyes hurt when he saw it, so he decided to suggest to Mr. Meng that he would add another score in the exam in the future.

It is enough to take a rough look at those population registrations. According to his requirements, things like ID cards that record name, gender, age, and appearance characteristics can be postponed and processed slowly. The first thing he wants to look at is the skill registration.

There are quite a lot of talents among these people. There are blacksmiths, carpenters, and strippers who are in short supply in the village, and there are also bricklayers he wants. They are still father and son.

In addition, there are those who can tan, those who can weave, those who can embroider, those who can hoop barrels, those who can tie lanterns, and even those who can deliver babies.

Xia Chen was overjoyed when he saw it, and became more grateful to Colonel Luo and his party. It was a gift from thousands of miles away, and it was a big gift bag.To let him find someone by himself, how much effort would it take to collect so many craftsmen.

Others can do all kinds of small businesses, and there are many who can make snacks such as tofu, sugar people, candied haws, and small chaos.

Because he mentioned that he was good at everything and wrote it down, so he saw a lot of various specialties that made people laugh and cry.

There is a record of a woman who is especially good at talking about relatives, claiming to have been a matchmaker more than 100 times.Someone said that he was very good at eating, and he ate up to 23 steamed cakes at one time.Another person said that his farts are particularly smelly, and he once fainted people...

Xia Chen was rolling on the bed laughing, for a moment he even wanted to meet this strange woman, but later he thought about it, if he farts when they meet, he will be out of luck, so he immediately dismissed the idea.

Compared with others who can sing, dance and sing, they are not so prominent.

Of course, there are also some people who are very special. One person said that he ran fast, and there was a note in the record. This person ran a lap on the spot, and none of the five guards present could catch up with him.This is still a situation where one party is full of food and drink and the other party is weak, which shows that the other party is really a scud.

There is also a person who knows ventriloquism, he can learn to speak from people or animal sounds, and he can learn what he looks like. Although he hasn't found a suitable use for it yet, Xia Chen thinks that this skill may be useful in the future.

After reading all the materials that night, Xia Chen discussed with Wen Shu and began to list various recruitment numbers according to his plan.He said that Wen Shu recorded and cooperated very tacitly.

The day before, only some middle-aged men who thought they had no special skills and only had a lot of strength were recruited to do various coolies. They got their salary that night, and each person could buy at least two catties of coarse grains. The entire camp in the outer city was so happy surplus days.

On the second day, apart from recruiting, there were also specific work arrangements. A few literate people, including Yi Shan and Meng Mingjun, had assigned him a few subordinates.

The carpenters and blacksmiths arrange to work with the original carpenters and blacksmiths in the village. Those in the village are paid according to the workload. For the time being, they calculate the money by the day, and make appropriate changes in the future according to the situation.

Other craftsmen also arranged to do their own handicraft work, and the materials can be picked up from the warehouse. Currently, the money is calculated on a daily basis.But now it is time for them to be active and strive to enter the inner city, so there is no need to worry that they will not work hard.

There is no spare space for the time being, so the cooper, the cobbler and the lantern maker are arranged to work together first, and there is an empty yard for them to make workshops.

The bricklayers are not able to start work yet, because the kiln has not been built yet, and the kiln is not built casually. If you can make tiles, you should have a certain understanding of the kiln. Xia Chen asked them to lead people to build the kiln first.

In addition to the previous types of work, he recruited another group of people to start papermaking. In addition to the hard work of the mortar, papermaking can also be done by women, and in some links, dexterous women are easier to do well, so he simply Some more women were recruited, both villagers and residents from outer cities.

Other jobs can be sent out, such as quarrying, dredging, logging, etc. The process is simple and no one needs to be watched. Other slightly more complicated tasks can be assigned to Meng Mingjun, and the guards will assist at any time.But he had to keep an eye on the job of making paper, and no one else knew how to do it.

The place where the paper is made is located in an open space not far from the lower reaches of the Qingshui River. First, the materials are simply processed, such as making the bark smaller, and it is easier to boil it when it is boiled.

These tasks are separated into steps, and they are very simple. Xia Chen said that the paper workers did it very carefully, and quickly prepared a batch of materials.

Then Xia Chen asked them to cook these materials in a pot according to the process in memory, and boil them to a certain extent, take them out, rinse them, and cook them again, going back and forth several times until the plant fibers were separated.

Then the mortar was smashed. After a busy day, Xia Chen sent someone to eat lunch here.

By the time this step was done, it was already late, and the paper workers all showed panic when they saw the unknown objects that were in a mess in front of them.

They didn't know exactly what they were called to do, they just did whatever Xia Chen asked them to do, but they made something in one day, they were very worried, would they just do it? I lost my job in a day.

Xia Chen was quite satisfied with the progress, and after groping to make it so good, he comforted them with a few words and told them to leave first, and come back to work as usual tomorrow. This sentence immediately calmed the hearts of the paper workers, and the group happily took Take the bamboo sign to collect wages.

In the next few days, Xia Chen was bringing man-made paper. The middle pigsty was covered and the rabbit cage was woven. Xia Chen asked Sun Heihu to lead the people to the mountains and forests to catch some rabbits and wild piglets. come back.

They poked two rabbit nests, and brought back a dozen rabbits, big and small. Three of them were frightened to death, and they killed and ate the meat. After the leather was handed over to the cobbler, it could be used as a muff.

Xia Chen found his uncle for the job of piggybacking. His grandfather was a famous butcher. Several uncles did this job, so piggybacking should not be a problem for them, probably.

When they heard that Xia Chen wanted to raise pigs, the others didn't say anything. After all, he was getting more and more powerful now. Even if he thought he was messing around, no one would dare to say anything about him except his parents.

In the end, he came to the door and asked his uncle to cut the little pig's eggs? !

Just listening to it, the men felt cold in their lower body, and several uncles said that we were too old to do such a thing, and pushed our sons out one after another.

The cousins ​​went to the pigsty with their sharp knives helplessly, and the uncles couldn't help following to watch the fun.

When they got to the place, Xia Chen said so and so, the little uncle got excited again, grabbed the job of the younger generation, and quickly grabbed a little fat pig and brought it out.

Asked his son and nephew to hold the little pig down, gestured back and forth with the knife, and heard Xia Chen say it again, once he gritted his teeth, raised the knife and dropped it, squeezed again, raised the knife again, squeezed again, little pig The pig had time to struggle hard, and then became a docile pig.
