Chapter 139: Mine Cell

Zijian held a stack of land deeds and wanted to cry without tears, Chen Yuanwai's wealth is more than Zhang Caitong and Liu Huashan, this is for sure, but unlike them, Chen Yuanwai's wealth is more on the land.

Chen Yuanwai used a large amount of silver to buy land, so now Zijian has harvested a large piece of land, but the silver is less than Zhang Caitong's land owner, and the gold harvest is less than 20,000.

Zijian really wants to save Chen Yuanwai, who has just hung up, and smoke him, what are you doing when you buy so much fertile land, and you can't eat it, now the fertile fields are all Zijian's, but so many fertile fields are better than giving him silver, actually, these fertile fields can only be used to reward the volunteers.

Zijian just collected the gold, and left the valuable things for people to sort out.

Zhang Yu came over to report, "Chief, Chen Yuanwai is not far from here, and there is a warehouse where grain is stored, and I asked the housekeeper, there are more than 200,000 catties of grain." In addition, Chen Yuanwai also opened a grain store in the county seat. ”

Niu Sheng came over, "Chief, I found a warehouse, and there were 300,000 catties of iron in it. ”

Zijian converted, 300,000 catties of iron looks like a lot, when converted into tonnage units, it is only a weight of 150 tons, just these 100 tons of iron, what is surprising, any ocean-going freighter in later generations is 100,000 tons, hundreds of thousands of tons.

Zijian: "Li Shi, where is the iron mine, you should know, you take people to occupy the iron mine, those miners have resistance, you can do it." ”

Li Xian understood what the chief elder meant, if the miners rebelled against the volunteers, then kill the other party, no one could threaten the safety of the volunteers, and if they found a situation that might cause danger to the volunteers, needless to say, first remove the danger, and then check the reason, this is the style of the volunteers.

Li Shi: "Yes, chief, I'll leave now." ”

Li Hu reported to Zijian from time to time what treasures he had collected, and Zijian sat in the living room, playing with the green jade carved brand, I heard that it was very valuable.

Zijian doesn't have much appreciation for jadeite, he just thinks it's good-looking, this is one of Chen Yuanwai's treasures, and it was collected.

The butler knelt on the ground and trembled, because he knew that the master had been ordered to be killed by the thief leader, and he didn't want to die yet, hoping that the thief leader would not kill him casually.

Picked up the title deed and asked the trembling housekeeper, "Don't Master Chen have any other silver, you have to think about it carefully, otherwise I will throw you into the fire as firewood!" Zijian thinks that it is very intimidating to burn people as firewood, so he often talks about burning people as firewood, as for whether he will do this, it depends on the performance of the other party.

The housekeeper was trembling, the other party killed the master's family, he would not think that he was more noble than the master, and that the other party would not dare to kill him.

The housekeeper "spares his life, the big boss spares his life, the old man always said that ten thousand taels of silver is not as good as ten acres and two fields, and in addition to some expenses in the house, the remaining silver buys a large number of fertile land. ”

Zijian couldn't complain, when he met an old man Chen who loved land, what could he do, they left him more than 20,000 acres of fertile land, and more than 10,000 acres of land under his name.

Zijian sat on the chair, his index finger kept tapping on the table, and he harvested a large piece of land, as well as the land under the name of Chen Yuanwai, which is now his, Zijian thought about it for a while, now the land is his, and Zijian doesn't care about the output of the land.

In his opinion, it is enough for the land to ensure the supply of food, and it is very slow to earn money from the output of the land.

The words written on the title deed, Zijian barely recognized, this writing habit and font, it is very difficult to read, and it doesn't matter if you glance at it, let the professionals manage it, and when the time comes, it will be left to Zhang Youde to sort out, he is not good at this work.

The people of Shayuan Town were soon shocked, because the volunteers followed the instructions of the chief, and found someone to write a notice, which roughly means: Chen Chuyun raised people, did things that hurt heaven and reason, was killed by the volunteers, and the land attached to the Chen family was transferred to the volunteers, and the taxes paid by everyone in the future were handed over to the volunteers, and if he dared not to pay taxes, he was sent to see Master Chen.

Chen Yuanwai's family is dead, and there is the policy of the volunteers, the people have not squeaked, although it has not affected their own families, the people will not come out, to avenge the dead Chen family or something, this has nothing to do with them, this is two forces fighting for territory, ordinary people are involved, and there are no bones.

The people are relieved that according to the practices of other officers and soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, they have already come out to rob property and insult women, and the volunteers should be thankful that they did not come out to harm them.

The officers and soldiers robbed the people, and the people didn't dare to resist, and the people dared to resist, so the officers and soldiers were cut with a knife, and then said that they were thieves, and the people couldn't find a way to redress their grievances when they were killed.

When the news of the land rent reduction came, let alone how happy the people were.

Looking at the kneeling housekeeper, Zijian asked, "What evil things do you usually do for Master Chen?" ”

The housekeeper hurriedly called out for wrongdoing, "The big boss, spare your life, the villain has never done such a thing." ”

Zijian: "Hmph, what you said doesn't count, Li Hu, let people ask the housekeeper about his personality, what evil is there." ”

The steward breathed a sigh of relief, although he looked down on those people, he didn't do anything to them, and he couldn't be guilty of looking down on them!

Li Hu came back quickly, "Chief, I've asked someone to inquire, this old guy is usually very arrogant, and he doesn't do any great evil to the people." ”

Zijian: "Master housekeeper! ”

The housekeeper was so frightened that he was excited, Zijian called him a master, didn't he slap him in the face, "The big boss tortures the old man, and the little old man doesn't dare to be." ”

Zijian: "Hehe, housekeeper, I'm going to get a cell in the iron mine, but I'm going to take care of it alone, you see!" ”

The housekeeper "big boss, if the little second child can help you, just ask, the villain will definitely do it." ”

Zijian: "That's you, in the future, the iron mine will produce a certain amount of iron ore, and I will be responsible for you, I will catch a batch of scum who are not sorry to die, you squeeze them for me, it's okay if you die, and if you die, you will dig a pit and bury it." ”

It's a housekeeper who knows how to be the head of this cell, otherwise he will become a mining worker, and the one who is in charge and the one who is a miner will have a better choice.

The housekeeper was a little strange that Zijian's attitude towards those miners was really a heinous crime, and he could not just cut it with a knife, why should he keep it.

Zijian: "You help me do things, and I can't treat you badly, I will have ten taels of silver every month in the future, you can show me those people, if they run away, you will go to fill the vacancy." Get up, aren't you tired on your knees! ”

The butler was slandered, but he didn't dare to show it, nonsense, without your permission, he wouldn't give you a knife when he got up.

Zijian has arrested a lot of people, such as those pirates, who have not been taken care of before, because there is no mining area, and now that there is an iron mine, let those scum mined, and they must carry iron chains with their hands and feet to prevent them from escaping.

There are three departments in the iron ore area, one is the normal people mining area, where ordinary people can come to mine if they want to, and they will be paid every day. The second mining area, for people who have been mining for three years, these people have no murder and arson, and insulting women, it is an ordinary small crime, not a big evil person, let them mine here for three years, and after three years, they can leave, and there can be a certain amount of silver compensation according to their performance, if they don't want to leave after three years, they can go to work in the first normal person mining area, and the remuneration will be given according to the normal person. The third is that there are people who go to the mining area without returning, and those who enter this area to mine, with iron chains, work the hardest, use these people as livestock, and it doesn't matter if they die, these people deserve it, and they don't know what to sympathize with. Zijian let them mine, it is the last bit of use to squeeze these scum, people who enter this area can commit suicide, this Zijian doesn't care, anyway, they will die if they die.

The housekeeper didn't dare to ask more, he would do whatever Zijian said, this is the practice of smart people.
