Thirty miles north of Handan, there is a small Liuzhuang. There are more than 150 families in the village, and the development of the village is now very good, after the autumn harvest, there are more than 15 couples married. If this was something that I didn't dare to think about before, this marriage was held in a beautiful way, and the people of Xiaoliuzhuang said that the Red Turban Army brought them joy. There were many brothers in Zhuangzi, and some of them were sent to the team.

"Brother Big Pillar. I also want to marry a daughter-in-law. Stone said in his scruffy clothes. He's seventeen. It's a pity that the family is poor. There is not much land, their family only has two acres of land, no savings at all, and his brother is twenty-four or five years old and has not yet married a daughter-in-law, let alone hope for it.

"Tell me, where will I find you a daughter-in-law?" The big pillar said angrily. Zhang Dazhu. He is a famous bachelor in Xiaoliuzhuang, he has strength, he eats a lot, he is alone in the family, his father and mother died early, and there is no brother, and now he is almost twenty. There was no marriage, and the Red Turban Army came. didn't want him, people asked him to marry before he could come to join the army, saying that he couldn't be left behind, and he had to keep the seeds. He was also given some money to keep as his savings.

The big pillar has never seen such a good army, really. In the past, when the county recruited people, he worked for nothing, and he couldn't eat enough. If you are injured, you will not be treated, and you will be given money, and you will not be able to dream of it.

Marrying a relative is the biggest thing in a family for a farmer, but there are so many population resources, and many men are single. Those who had brothers joined the army. Because joining the army can still give land. Whether it is woodland or land, in short, the Red Turban Army is given. This is the first step of the Red Turban Army's military salary system, because the Red Turban Army has no more funds, and the currency circulation is relatively small, so land and food are their biggest currency, and these Red Turban Army is not lacking, in order to motivate soldiers to fight, each soldier only needs to serve for one year, and the land allocated is different, and the private divides the land the same, as long as you fight well. The land is given to different types of land according to different military exploits, and the first-class merit is the most dangerous, but the land is given to 200 acres of good land and 100 acres of middle field. And also give three years of rations. This is definitely a good thing. Private is a little worse, but there are also two hundred acres of land. There are also 100 acres of land for third-class merit. It's all good land, there are rations, and there are also various campaign rewards or something, in short, the policy is very good. Many of the families went to join the team. I heard that you still need to know words.

But people don't want a bachelor, because if they die, they can't give a pension, which is considered a broken root. People are afraid of causing extinction, so Zhang Dazhu and Shi can't join the team, Shi is because of his brother, if his brother gets married. He can go, but the problem is that they don't have much money. Zhang Dazhu's mouth emptied his family.

"Now the Xu family and the woman have to join the team. In these two cases, your brother is married. It's okay to say, I, I'm in trouble. Zhang Dazhu said helplessly.

"yes, I want to join the team too, and I've heard that there are guns that make loud noises. At this time, the team is at its best. Unfortunately, it is not possible to participate. Otherwise, let's talk to the commander of the team, we have good conditions and strength. Able to fight. The stone instigated.

"No, I did. I looked for the captain of the militia team, saying that he wanted a letter of introduction, and he also opened it. But don't do it in the team, say yes, I'm afraid of being out of business, what discipline is there. Checked it. It's not easy to do. People don't want me anymore. I also gave the money and asked me to do something, marry a daughter-in-law, and go to the army when I have a boy. Damn, where can I find money, if I become a soldier. Don't worry about that. Zhang Dazhu said anxiously. I saw that many farmers in the village went to serve as soldiers. The two of them are in a hurry. Serving as a soldier is a good way out. The offer for them is also huge.

"Why don't we go north and work? I've heard that there are a lot of people going to work in iron. Let's go together. Stone said.

"Hehe, I asked too. A person like me, who eats half of someone's pot of rice in one breath, why do you want it? Also, people will definitely not want it, and I heard that they still need to read and write, you say, the two of us, we can't write a name. This is grievance. Zhang Dazhu shook his head and said.

"Big pillars. Large pillars. A middle-aged man shouted.

"Uncle. Is there something wrong with the uncle? Zhang Dazhu stood up and asked the uncle, the uncle is the village official on the Zhuangzi, in fact, he is the first person in charge, he is responsible for the security of the entire village, development, population allocation or something. He has to take care of everything in the village.

"Yes. Meddlesome. The stone is also there, it just so happens that there is such a thing, you two, capable. Uncle said with a smile.

"What's the matter? Uncle. Stone said excitedly.

"On our team, we want to transport a batch of materials over, saying that we want a commercial transportation team to pass, although our village has a lot of population, but it is difficult to establish a factory, and no one can come up with such a lot of money." Uncle said. In fact, not every village can build a factory, Xiaoliuzhuang is separated from a large village, the development here is very balanced, no one has much land, it is almost the same, it is precisely because of this that Xiaoliuzhuang can not establish a factory, and it is impossible to solve the work arrangement of people like Dazhu, the uncle is very anxious about this. Fortunately, the team seems to know such a problem, and even asked them to set up a transport team. The old man is thinking about such a thing, there are many such men in the village, and now it is also the time of the farming, and some of them have gone to the north to work. Some of them are still in the village, and they can't be idle, so they have to find something to do.

"I'm early, the Agricultural Bank of China, in the name of the village, loan, bought ten wheelbarrows, you transport things to the team, arrive safely, people will give you wages, and when you come back, you can help the side to transport the wounded back and give you wages, if you don't send it, you see what goods to be sent over there, you can pull back some by yourself, in short, the team is not in vain. Give wages. Uncle said.

", uncle, I did it. We're still worried that we can't find a place to pay our wages. The big pillar stood up anxiously and said.

"That's it, uncle, I want to save money and marry my daughter-in-law for my own use." So said the stone.

"Hehe, two silly boys have grown up. As long as you want a daughter-in-law. Good. All right. Uncle said happily. The larger the population of the village, the better the development of the village. He's a village official, he's happy.

"The bank has done the math for us. As long as you run honestly seven or eight times. This wheelbarrow is yours. Fifteen trips, almost fifty acres of land income. This daughter-in-law is probably no problem. Uncle will let your sister-in-law tell you to go when the time comes. Uncle said with a smile.

"Great. Uncle, when the time comes, we will definitely invite you to drink and drink happy wine. Da Zhu said excitedly.

"Of course, boy. One drink sent me away. It's really cut. I'm going to have another meal. Taste your daughter-in-law's craftsmanship. Uncle said.

"Definitely, definitely." The two men nodded. And such a scene is still staged in many places, many places without factories, they can only solve the employment problem through the development of transportation, and this move of Shangwu has greatly solved the problem of rural employment. This is the biggest impetus for the development of the rural economy.

Sheguo County. The command of the military district involved in the country was moved here.

"This weapon, it's so good, with this weapon, I'm like seeing a beauty, I guess, I have to sleep with him in my arms tonight." Lao Mu couldn't put it down, holding the musket in his hand. The musket was powerful. It can easily penetrate the armor of the officers and soldiers, and the range is also long, although the accuracy is not so accurate. But it was still powerful a hundred paces away, which greatly exceeded their expectations, which was even more powerful than a crossbowman.

"Hehe, sir, if you see the cannon, I guess you'll have to whisper all night tonight." Tian Yong said with a smile. He is the chief of staff of the military region, he is only in his early twenties, he is a graduate of the military academy, and most of the chiefs of staff graduated early, but their knowledge level has basically reached 3,000 words, and they have a certain ability to work on the map and command operations. Led soldiers. Only those with outstanding ability can reach this position.

"Huh. If there really is a cannon, I just put my arm around him and says it will be fine for three days and three nights. It's a pity. We have all fought down the county seats. This cannon has been sent to Taihang Mountain and the Shangdang area. Our military region has to rest for a while before we can participate in the battle. Lao Mu said.

"Well, if we had such weapons earlier, we might have suffered fewer casualties, and we wouldn't have had to sacrifice so many good brothers." Tian Yong said.

"It's not, it's a pity that there are times when you can't say that if. Next, we should reorganize the troops, sum up the combat experience, change the tactics, and provide us with so many weapons, in this future, I think, will definitely go to war. Lao Mu said.

"Hmm. The official army in the north is very powerful, and we are also subordinate to make trouble, if I am the emperor Laozi, I will definitely let the old boy Huangfu Song go south to give us a look, we have to rest the troops and fight a good battle with them. Tian Yong said.

"Hmm. This matter of combat experience depends on you, and I have to hurry up and learn. Otherwise, you will really fall behind. Lao Mu said. The battle involving the country made many people change their minds.
