Chapter 758: Queue
Everyone was staggering, and everyone wanted to lie down immediately, but they had no way to go to bed immediately. They had to soak their feet in hot water every night before going to bed. It was the rule of the army before, but later people consciously accepted this approach because after soaking their feet, they felt more relaxed and easier to fall asleep, and at the same time they could eliminate the harm of water blisters.
In addition, everyone hasn't had dinner yet. Everyone's abdomen roared like thunder while walking, almost everyone is the same.
The fierce-faced man Li Shanxin said, "I feel that I can eat a cow if I suffer from plague."
Zhao Wen smiled and said, "I have eaten in a pot, and I really believe you said this."
Li Shanxin slapped Zhao Wen on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Dare to make fun of me."
Zhao Wen returned the blow without hesitation, and Li Shanxin, who also hit him, let out a muffled groan.
Tang Shangde smiled and said, "Zhao Wen has really grown up. He used to be very gentle when he first came, but he didn't dare to say anything when he was bullied. He was not strong enough to kill the chicken. Now look at it, he means to be a strong man."
"It's still far away." Li Shanxin looked at the old man, but in fact he was only twenty-five or six years old. He said with his eyes glowing: "Did you see the training scene of the merchant army? That's what the man did. When I expire, I can directly become a baggage soldier without an assessment. When I capture Qingcheng, I will find my family, and I will directly register for the baggage soldier."
"Well, the treatment of the baggage soldiers is not bad." Tang Shangde was nearly forty years old, and of course he was much older than these two young men. He was very serious about Li Shanxin: "One or eight a month salary, food and clothing are paid by the army, and the money can be saved. When you work for three years, you can save at least sixty taels. Shanxin used to have three thatched houses in Bansheng land. I heard that it would be burned, and it would be burned. Sixty taels are enough to buy a very decent yard, and it would be enough to buy a few sheep, buy a half-large cattle, and rent fifty or sixty acres of land to plant. He Yusheng's tenant farmers earn at least ten taels a year. If you have a cattle, people will not be too tired... Marry a wife and live a beautiful life, it is also right for ancestors."
Li Shanxin's eyes were shining when Tang Shangde said that, and for him, Zhao Wen, Tang Shangde and others, there was no psychological burden to apply for He Yusheng. On the contrary, they saw huge opportunities from He Yusheng's treatment of tenant farmers, workers and the army, to improve their lives and get rid of poverty from then on.
Before this, they farmed in Bansheng Field, and the vegetables they planted were provided to Beilu almost for free. Beilu gave them the lowest living guarantee on the line of food and clothing, unless those smart Han merchants could make money from Beilu, and even those who sold themselves and defected to the Zhao family became big Han merchants, but how many successful Han merchants could there be tens of thousands of Han people?
The biggest advantage of Beilu is that plunder and discrimination are obvious. Things that are agreed will not be changed at will, and there will be no layers of bullying and oppression, but do not want to regard this place as a paradise.
He Yusheng's jurisdiction is completely different. A large amount of land needs to be cultivated by hand. In addition to the recruited mainland farmers as tenant farmers, a large number of Han people on the grassland are mostly hired to become tenant farmers, whether they grow cotton, millet, sorghum, beans and other crops, or just grow vegetables. Anyway, the land cannot be idle.
Li Shanxin and others also have quite strong confidence in the high yield of farmland. The huge and exquisite water diversion project surprised them and even reached fear.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Degree.
The reason why these people completely gave up the protection of the Mongols and changed from outside to inside to support Heyusheng can be said that the things shown in farmland reclamation and water conservancy projects directly impressed them.
As a tenant farmer who is in Yusheng, the income he earns is definitely ten times higher than growing vegetables in Bansheng, and there is no bullying or oppression. This is the paradise that the people have imagined. Many people even think that even the White Lotus Sects in the past have the same feeling. The so-called Buddha Kingdom on earth is just like this.
What made Li Shanxin willing to surrender was that when the Lancers entered the suppression, they killed many people. Fortunately, Li Shanxin was forced without his family. If he had blood debts, it would be hard to say what he thought now.
The military and political officials of Yusheng have been working hard to eliminate the hatred at the time, but this kind of thing is not an urgent matter. It also takes time to dilute the hatred. It may be that when the survivors are freed from labor and face the embarrassing situation where the Mongolians fail completely and the mainland cannot return, all the problems will be solved at that time.
"The meal hasn't started yet?"
People were hungry and stood in front of the restaurant shed in the camp waiting. Everyone untied the iron jar around their waists. This thing was an oval utensil similar to a cup, with a fork and a spoon inside. It was as convenient as eating and drinking water. It was usually covered tightly and hung on the belt. Even if the villagers did not have the kind of cowhide belt with hooks, they could put this thing in their own bedding. Everyone had one of the things and didn't have to worry about being stolen.
These daily necessities are produced in Lingqiu's iron yard. Whether for military or civil use, they have proved that their design is reasonable and very useful. Nowadays, mule, horse and coachmen, bodyguards, small and medium-sized businessmen who often go out, people use this iron can everywhere, which has a wide range of sales and high output.
In addition to jars, iron forks and spoons are all very useful and easy to clean. They do not need to be carefully protected and used like porcelain and pottery.
In addition, there are dozens of iron utensils, iron basins, iron cups, spoons, chopsticks, shovels, and these types of iron daily necessities are all very impressive, with sales.
The iron ore department in Lingqiu can occupy such a large share in the north and sell so much.
Now the villagers are holding the iron can impatiently, and the impatient people have already held the fork and spoon in their hands. People are gradually losing patience and feel a little impatient.
It's no wonder that they have been working hard from morning to now, and even risking their lives to work. This kind of thing consumes a lot of physical energy. At noon, people can only eat lunch with clean water and wheat cakes in a hurry. Now they are really hungry and tired.
A wall is the place where the cookers cook. There are more than a dozen teams of cooks and assistants. There are many such cooking sites, and the meal of 80,000 people is also a major project. In the morning, people saw a team of soldiers driving hundreds of sheep to the camp. Of course, these sheep are to be slaughtered and eaten. Even so, it is only enough to eat for one day. More sheep should be driven in tomorrow.
"Here, thank you everyone."
When the baggage captain came out with the cooks, the entire civilian team was in sensation.
Everyone stared at him, Zhao Wen felt his stomach
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) It seems like a knife is squeezing, and his eyes are also black. When he smells the rich aroma of flesh, his saliva can't help but flow out of his mouth.
Zhao Wen had never felt like he was hungry like this. He felt a little ashamed, but when he looked at his friends around him, he found that everyone was like him, and Li Shanxin was still swallowing his saliva.
If it were before, he would have despised the group of mud legs around him. His class was far above these people, but now at this time he has regarded these people as his partners. Although these guys are dirty and smelly, he himself is also dirty and smelly. He is not nobler than anyone else. His previous knowledge was nothing... He Yusheng's baggage soldiers could even recognize 800 words. Even those officers, even the little officers, knew a lot. Zhao Wen already felt that he did not have enough knowledge.
"Listen, everyone." The captain of the charity army stood on a high place and shouted loudly: "Tonight's meal was soup made of pork, meatballs, cabbage, and each four big meat buns were made of mutton and green onions. This was specially ordered by Lord Zhang. Today, everyone is willing to do things like a charity and stone, and there is no difference between them, so it is the same as the charity army, and the military personnel, and the supper is the same. Everyone can make it hard!"
Zhao Wen knew that He Yusheng's meat buns were two or three taels each, and the filling was very large, so he was full of oil when he bite. In the past, this was the welfare of the soldiers, and the soldiers only ate them every few days. The civilians usually don't have this treatment and only eat them during the holidays. Usually, their meat is mainly meat soup made with minced meat with wheat cakes, and sometimes they are also mixed grain cakes.
He Yusheng had enough food supply, but there were still restrictions on captured civilians, including restrictions on personal freedom and different treatments. Zhao Wen and others understood that they had to pay the price for their original choices.
When people heard that there were mutton buns to eat, people forgot the impatientness and unhappiness when waiting, Li Shanxin took the lead and clapped her hands, and everyone followed her. Zhao Wen also patted hard, making her palms red.
Everyone doesn’t have to urge them, so they line up consciously.
This is like clapping. At first, people didn't understand why they did this, but later they realized that it was like clapping their hands to vent their emotions. It was more efficient than rushing to rank in line than to grab them. It may not be good for a bad guy who was at the end of the line, but this time the ranking is at the bottom of the line does not mean that they still can't get the top position next time.
If you don’t queue up, whoever has the strength dares to fight will be ranked first. This can easily become a sample of society from Lin. If a person like Zhao Wen cannot get the protection of rules and order at the beginning, he will easily be eliminated by natural laws.
When Zhao Wen lined up, he felt not only not uncomfortable, but also felt very at ease.
Zhao Wen and others lined up to make the broth and received the buns in the portion. They put the buns on the lid of the iron jar, held the soup with the left hand and the right hand. Most of them squatted on the ground, and everyone ate very quickly. Zhao Wen was still not used to holding it. There was a small stool he made in his tent. He sat on the stool and ate it. Li Shanxin, Tang Shangde and others squatted beside him and ate together.
Everyone ate it very delicious, and even Zhao Wen ate it very quickly. After half a jar of broth and two buns, the feeling of being hungry was suppressed. People began to taste the umami flavor of the buns, and at the same time, some people rated the difference between mutton and pork.
