After Su Yonglin said this, the people attending the meeting looked at each other.

No, I have never seen someone who works in person.

The best people are all beautiful, silk, satin, big fish and big meat. They only know how to eat but don’t know where the food comes from. They can live an extremely superior life by stretching out their hands and moving their mouths. How could they go to the fields to work in coarse linen?

Even if the farmers who live a wealthy life can eat well, many of them still go to the fields to work, facing the loess and facing the sky, and sweating is not enough.

"I also need to work in the fields, not the best. I can support myself and the whole family without going to work in the fields, and use my power to bully men and women. That is the best person, and that is the object we need to eliminate."

Su Yonglin set a clearer standard for Shengjiejun's work in the next period of time.

And there are some things Su Yonglin thinks should be said, but he still has no choice to say them at this stage.

Poverty is not something worth boasting about.

It is not that whoever is poor is glorious.

It is of course a glorious thing to overthrow and oppress and turn over to make the decision, and it is also glorious to become rich through labor.

What he wanted to do was to overturn the superiors, so that everyone could eat and live a relatively wealthy life, rather than letting everyone be poor together, and poverty is the right way to the world.

Then you'll go the wrong way.

The Shengjie Army wanted to overthrow the superiors, not those who were innocent and hardworking to become rich.

Su Yonglin thought about these words and didn't say them for the time being.

It is indeed inconvenient to carry out too in-depth actions at the moment. It is enough to connect the farmers and the Shengjie Army through the Farmers Association.

The issues of the work of the Farmers' Association were explained, and everyone set a working standard.

Then Su Yonglin met with all the special commissioners stationed in the new countryside and talked with them about their work experiences and ideas for a period of time.

It is basically the same as Su Yonglin expected. The biggest problem is that the farmers do not cooperate. The farmers are very cooperative, but their cultural level is too low and many things cannot be done.

It is really an urgent task to make them literate and educated.

"Only by recognizing words can you understand the truth. In the past, the superiors did not let us know the truth in order to fool us, so understanding the truth is the first step to resist the superiors. This step must be done well. If you don't say you become a scholar, at least you can't be blind."

The new countryside under Su Yonglin's governance is bound to the Shengjie Army. It is a brand new system in the three states controlled by Su Yonglin, and exists in parallel with the original system.

So in fact, local officials can't control them.

Although Su Yonglin has become the general manager of the three prefectures and has administrative jurisdiction over the three prefectures, he does not intend to hand over the new countryside to the government.

For a very simple reason, no one who is an official in the control area of ​​the Refuge Army now can have the same heart as him.

Therefore, he wanted to let the Shengjie Army directly bind to the new countryside and establish a binary administrative system of [Shengjie Army - Rural] parallel to the government administrative system.

The new countryside is responsible for production and autonomy, providing troops to the Shengjie Army, and becoming the logistics base of the Shengjie Army. The Shengjie Army provides sufficient shelter and preferential policies for the new countryside.

At the same time, all taxes in the new countryside were directly handed over to the Shengjie Army Logistics Department, which was managed uniformly by the Logistics Department and applied to all aspects.

So Su Yonglin instructed Lin Jingchun to let these special commissioners establish contact with Lin Jingchun, the head of the logistics department.

When they reported their work, they directly reported to Su Yonglin, and when they needed money and material support, they directly applied to Lin Jingchun. Lin Jingchun needed special tasks and tried to satisfy them.

Lin Jingchun nodded to show that he understood.

Next is the military issue.

This is the focus of the current work.

In addition to expanding the army and increasing the number of people, Su Yonglin also specifically instructed Su Haisheng and the other three to use the occupied county town to collect craftsmen and other technicians to establish a unified arsenal.

Don’t engage in small workshop-style decentralized production, but build a relatively larger and more concentrated factory, bringing all technicians together to serve the military industry, producing spears, long knives, heavy axes, bows and crossbows, arrows and armor.

To fight, we need not only people, but also a steady stream of professional equipment.

So Su Yonglin has been planning to build an arsenal and control Tai'an Prefecture, so he decided to set up an arsenal here. Now he has reached a preliminary scale and has begun trial production.

The arsenal is located in the northeast of Laiwu County, not far from the military camp, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the surrounding scenery is pleasant.

It is very convenient to get materials into the mountains and take water on the spot, which can save some labor costs, and there are iron ore areas not far away.

A mine is also set up in the iron mine area.

The Jin government once mined and smelted iron here. When Su Yonglin marched, he took over the mining area and collected a complete set of equipment.

This mining area was originally garrisoned with more than 100 Jin soldiers, supervising more than 1,000 miners. The miners lived a very hard life with almost no security guarantee. It was common for death and injury to be killed or injured.

After Su Yonglin took over this mining area, he announced that the miners who were equivalent to slaves would be adapted into normal households and restored their normal identities.

Because they were basically bachelors, full of hatred for the Jin people, and were excellent soldiers, Su Yonglin mobilized them to join the army.

After some mobilization and preaching, most of the miners chose to join the Shengjie Army, with about 800 people joining.

The remaining more than 200 people did not want to join the army for various reasons, so Su Yonglin asked them who were mastering mining technology to continue their original work.

After Su Yonglin transformed the mining area, he recruited miners in the form of recruitment, and stipulated that the mining area was a long-term job, and gave a good amount of wages, and there were restrictions on daily working hours. He also took care of food and gave him a public break.

In a horizontal comparison, the treatment is quite good, comparable to the days of a public official.

After the publicity of the farmers' association, many families found that this was a good job to subsidize their household income, so the mining area recruited many surplus laborers from families to participate in the mining work.

Not only that, Su Yonglin also announced that she was willing to recruit women to do some work in the mining area, such as washing and cooking, and also gave her a certain amount of wages.

After the news spread, many women in the surrounding villages were eager to try.

After more areas of control were added, Su Yonglin paid more attention to liberating women's productivity, and tried every means to let more rural women go out of their homes to participate in social work, so that their productivity could also be effective.

In the late Northern Song Dynasty, the ruling thought of the Song court became increasingly rigid and the oppression of women became increasingly severe. Foot binding became a fashion for Han women since the late Northern Song Dynasty.

At that time, the rulers and scholars praised foot binding, which made foot binding first spread from the upper class.

The Southern Song and Yuan dynasties were in the development period. By the end of the Yuan dynasty, the concept of not being able to bind feet began to appear. By the Ming and Qing dynasties, the custom of foot binding reached its peak.

It should be said that foot binding in the late Northern Song Dynasty was a popular trend that was qualified for the upper class, rather than a social rule, and it was far from the point where the whole society was prevalent.

Su Yonglin lived in the Southern Song Dynasty for twenty years and traveled half of the Southern Song Dynasty, but never saw a woman with foot binding in the countryside.

The officials and noble women who live in the city's high-ranking families cannot reach the status and cannot see them. They may have been foot binding or not.

Anyway, when Su Dingguang was still alive, there was no foot binding woman at his family.

Su Yonglin also had malicious speculations, feeling that the popularity of this custom in the upper class of Northern Song Dynasty should be inseparable from the Emperor Huizong who loved art.

But it is not visible to the people.

The vast majority of folk women have not been poisoned by foot binding, so they are mobilized to go out of their homes to work at this moment, at least there are no physical obstacles.

As for the obstacles in thoughts, Su Yonglin himself feels that it is not that serious.
