The temperature dropped quite a bit quickly, and it wouldn't be a surprise that it snowed heavily tonight.

At noon in this cold winter, Wang Lanling summoned the people in the city to the outside of the Lanling iron pot factory run by Wang Lanling.

There wasn't much to do in winter, and soon twenty or thirty thousand people gathered, like a temple fair, outside the pot factory in a remote place outside the city.

How to cast an iron pot, of course, this technology cannot be passed on, so there is no choice to make a pot on site in the iron pot factory.

All pots are poured out of a mold.

This is Wang Lanling's on-site conductor, he learned some ironware making in school, and he was also present when Heishui County made iron lunch boxes and iron pots.

Using fine sand, cement, and gravel raw materials, an iron pot mold can be used for up to four or five days, so basically you have to keep making molds.

The common people don't care about how the iron pot is made, and now everyone gathers on the land where weeds don't grow, and looks at the thick silver-white iron pot piled up at the gate of the iron pot factory.

These people were all standing ten meters away from Wang Lanling, and there were more than a hundred guards around them who were responsible for maintaining order at the scene.

"Take a look, take a look! The iron pot that the official said at the beginning, only those who behaved well last time and fought bravely to kill the enemy can get an iron pot! ”

Wang Lanling stood up an iron pot, pointed the mouth of the pot at the people in front of him, and continued to shout hard:

"The iron pots here are all the same, the same height, the same weight, and one person can't hold it."

shouted two sentences casually, although the people love to listen to this kind of smooth talk, but Wang Lanling couldn't go on, so he shouted: "Come on, send the pot according to the list!" ”

"Yes!" Lin Zunian quickly agreed, took the list and shouted: "Chengguan Town, Huangtian Street, Zhangjiao!" ”

Wang Lanling listened to this name in astonishment, there are many people with the surname Zhang, and it is not uncommon to call Zhang Jiao, but there is an extra residence with a yellow character in front of it, which feels quite interesting.

After looking over, it was a man with a yellow scarf on his head.

But just take a look at it, don't say it's called Zhang Jiao, even if it's called Zhang Sanfeng, it doesn't matter.

When Wang Lanling thought of this, he thought about what his next son would be called, why not call Wang Sanfeng?

Zhang Sanfeng and Wang Sanfeng, I always feel that the style is different.

Then call it Wang Junbao!

It's just a name, and it's hard for Lord Wang.

"Shanhainan!" Lin Zunian called another newcomer, and said with a smile after the other party came over: "Shanhai and Hainan kill fifteen enemies, and reward an iron pot, a lunch box, a cow, and two sheep!" ”

Shanhai came over and said, "Thank you, sir! ”

Wang Lanling also knows this name, basically the people who perform well this time belong to the people who focus on and focus on training, and that Zhang Jiao was ranked in front just because his name was two words.

"Do a good job in the future, if you encounter anything in the future, you can come to the county government to find us, warriors like you, as well as those martyrs who sacrificed their lives to defend the county, there will be some preferential treatment."

Shanhainan said solemnly: "Yes! Thank you for your kindness! ”

Wang Lanling nodded, let Shanhainan leave, and there were still many people who wanted to get things next.

There are not many iron pots cast, only more than 200 mouths, mainly for today's affairs, and until the beginning of spring next year, the output of the iron factory will not be used in large quantities in this place.

Not everyone who died would be treated as martyrs, but Wang Lanling knew very well that many people went down the mountain without permission, or resisted the initial requisition order, and finally were killed by bandits.

This kind of people who do not obey the command will not occupy the precious places, mainly those who died in the battle of guarding and the desperate battle of descending the mountain, Wang Lanling needs to give an explanation to these people.

The living receive it for themselves.

For those who are dead and injured and unable to move, Wang Lanling will give things to their wives and children, and will also take care of the follow-up affairs, and will not let his wife take money and things to remarry, nor will he let the old man give things to other sons.

Basically, the people who received the things were people from Shanhai County, and the people from Heishui County who followed Wang Lanling mainly gave other rewards.

For example, arranging some unmarried people to marry local widows, or arranging housing and distributing land.

Basically, those who are willing to leave their hometown and follow Wang Lanling from Heishui County to here are all single people, these people are brave in battle, but one person will inevitably have some problems.

For example, Tian Buxing was arranged to work in the Urban Defense Division, mainly responsible for investigating some public security problems in the vicinity, and at the same time taking some people from Shanhai County to learn firearms knowledge.

Lin Zunian and Gong Yueman were in charge of distributing rewards, and Wang Lanling walked to a lively place outside the city under the protection of several guards.

More people gathered here, except for some stalls selling snacks, mainly with a singing stage in front.

Wang Lanling's troupe, which he didn't use much, barely played some role.

It's not free, just an egg, or a pound of forage.

If you really don't have anything, then go and generate electricity for an hour in exchange for a ticket.

Wang Lanling looked at the place next to him where colorful eggs and various forage and sundries were placed, so he walked over and said, "What kind of eggs are these?" ”

"There are eggs and eggs, but they can't tell clearly, and the forage is a mess, and there is everything, and what they pick up. ”

Wang Lanling curiously picked up a cyan egg, "It's winter now, and there are bird eggs?" It's usually when the eggs are laid. ”

Wu Chi said: "Generally, there are many eggs laid around the summer heat, there are many bird eggs and snake eggs, and there are many things, and there are few eggs in winter, these things are hatched in warm places, and those who do not eat will starve to death." ”

Wang Lanling picked up a few beautifully colored bird eggs and took them back for the children to play with.

As long as the temperature is right, it is not strange to hatch a bird, but most of them will starve to death because there are no bugs to eat.

Wang Lanling said: "The troupe opens here once a month, and it should be kept clean here, so that everyone can adapt to the good habit of taking a bath and washing their face frequently and paying attention to hygiene as soon as possible." ”

Wu Chi agreed, "Yes, we men have been washing our hands and feet and faces a lot these days, and we were not used to it at first, but now it's good to get used to it." ”

There is no shortage of water in Shanhai County, but the people here do not have the habit of using water.

Wang Lanling used manpower to develop electricity, used electricity to heat water, and provided free hot water and bathing places for these people.

Skipping the need for water to push the generator and allowing people to move around the square, on the one hand, strengthens physical exercise and provides electricity for nearby boilers.

The nationwide power generation campaign in Shanhai County is in full swing, while the power generation army in Heishui County is facing the problem of unemployment.

A large number of city electricians gathered at the door of the sanitation department, pushing and shouting inside.

The weather is cold, and many poor families in the city are counting on the salary of the current month to live, or even the New Year.

The price of coal in Heishui County has risen year by year, and the price has also risen year by year, but wages have not increased much.

Originally, it was at most a few scoldings, but now the Department of Sanitation is going to shut down the power plant and stop employing them, where are these people willing to obey the arrangement!

"We've been doing this for years! Why don't you let us keep doing it?! I want to see Lord Wang! ”

"I've been in labor for three years in a row! You can't do that to me! If Lord Wang was here, he would never do such a thing! ”

"Horse mule, Harrow! Don't you have a father? ”

"These dog officers! They're also bad learners! Dog officer! Come out and shout twice! You horse mule Harrow!! ”

There was a lot of scolding outside, and a large number of workers gathered in front of the gate of the sanitation department to shout and even kick the door.

The Department of Sanitation has replaced the big iron gate in recent years, and the dogs inside have also become a lot fatter, barking at the gate in horror at this time.

The dog kept barking, but the man kept quiet.

The Department of Sanitation and others gathered in the meeting room.

Tian Yuanfang sighed, "The matter in front of us is really something that has no choice, we can't keep throwing money into it to support those people, right?" ”

Yin Wuwu said calmly: "There are too many people in this county, if only there were fewer of them, everyone can live a good life." ”

Although Yin Wuwu's statement was a little unpleasant, most of the people present felt that it was correct.

Heishui County can't develop because of the poor people who often make trouble outside.

Liu Fufeng said: "Starting from Lord Wang, I have been raising those people for almost four years now, these people don't know how to be grateful, and now they are still making trouble, I think it is better to ask the county magistrate to drive them away." ”
