Yang Xiu immediately adjusted the food supply plan, halved the rations, and one bowl of gruel per person, twice a day.

It doesn't matter if the rich people come to worship the gods, they bring contributions anyway, and they don't want to stay too long, seeing that the wine and food they bring with them are almost over, they just leave a few days early. As long as you have money, you can buy food dozens of miles away from this group of people. Soon after the autumn harvest, every family had some surplus grain, and on the whole, the grain in Yuzhou was not so nervous that it could not be opened.

But the poor who came with Yuji could not. It stands to reason that two bowls of porridge a day are not bad, at least better than starvation, but along the way, they followed the gods to get light, not only can they eat enough, but they can also open some meat every once in a while, their expectations have been raised, and they suddenly resume the treatment of refugees.

It's a pity that Yang Xiu didn't give them this opportunity, not only the nearby township pavilions were strictly guarded, but Yan Xing and Lu Su led the guards to ride five thousand steps to surround them on all sides, and they were allowed to enter and not to leave, and those who left without permission were arrested. The two-legged man could outrun the four-legged horse, and the bare-handed people were no match for the heavily armed soldiers of the guard's battalion, and when more than a hundred people were thrown to the ground and arrested, seven or eight men who thought they were strong fell in a pool of blood, and no one dared to steal chickens and dogs.

The people who felt the murderous aura sued Yu Ji. Yu Ji didn't say anything, just took out all the wine and food contributed by others and divided it equally among everyone. These seem to be a lot, but in front of tens of thousands of people, it is still a drop in the bucket, especially when the families of Pingyu tell each other that the gods can't give any benefits, Yu Ji is also facing the dilemma of cutting off cooking.

In the face of the angry and disappointed people, Yu Ji sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and curtains, and said nothing or did anything.

After being hungry for two days, Yang Xiu set up a big banner on the side. Wood school to recruit apprentices, workshop recruitment, supervision of agricultural school lieutenants to recruit people, each has more than ten people, set up a big flag, put a few plans, a few scribes to sit behind, put pen and ink paper inkstone, ready to register, a few scribes holding small flags, walk through the middle of the people in turn, one person in front of the fight, one shouting behind.

"Mu Xuetang recruits apprentices, including food and housing, 1,000 monthly money, practical and willing to learn, healthy, thirteen to eighteen, no limit in the township, no limit to men and women, literacy is preferred~~~~"

"Workshop recruitment, carpentry, lacquerwork, potter, bricklayer, food and shelter, more work, one person work, the whole family is fed and clothed~~~~"

"Recruit tun people, allocate land, provide residences, rent cattle, officials four people six, the number is limited, first come, first served~~~~"

……

The people heard clearly, first looked at each other, and then some people couldn't suppress their curiosity, and walked to their favorite places in groups. Along the way, the fact that there is a workshop in Pingyu has long been passed on by word of mouth, which is not a new thing. I heard that it was organized by the family of Runan, and Mrs. Yuan was in charge of it herself, and the craftsmen in the workshop not only lived a stable life, but also had a good salary to get. It's just that the gods are in front of them, and they don't care about it. Now the gods can't eat enough, and they can only fend for themselves.

Soon in front of the workshop, a group of people gathered, someone registered their name, township, asked about their skills, and then someone took them to the workshop to visit, try work, and if they were satisfied, they were hired on the spot.

There are those who test the waters, and there are immediately those who follow the trend. First, the underage teenagers timidly walked to the admissions office of the wood school hall and asked about the enrollment requirements. Several craftsmen warmly received them, introduced the learning system of the Wood School, the conditions provided, and the way out in the future, and suggested that they should not rush to conclusions, but could visit the Wood School first and taste the food of the Wood School.

The teenagers were so moved that after asking their families, they went in a gang. Knowing that Mu Xuetang also accepted women, several girls also plucked up their courage and went with a smile.

Tuntian's recruitment went the most smoothly, and after the initial temptation, he was quickly besieged. The reason why these people have left their homes is because they have no land, or their hometowns are always fighting and cannot cultivate normally, and now they have land, a place to live, and the government also provides cattle and seeds, and the distribution ratio is still so conscientious, who does not want to seize the opportunity. After all, there is a limited skill, but there are countless people who have the strength to farm, and if it is too late, there will be no chance.

Xu Qian and Meng Jian, who were in charge of recruiting the tun people, were sweating profusely, but they were full of joy. Winter wheat is about to be sown, and there will be several thousand more laborers at once, and thousands of hectares of land will be able to be planted, which will be of great benefit to Pingyu to make up for next year's grain shortfall. As long as it is arranged properly, the harvest will be seen next spring.

Soon, the first people to visit the workshop also returned. Many of them have been admitted to the workshop, assigned a place to live, and can move in immediately and go to work tomorrow. One person joins, and the family is at ease. While beckoning their families to pack their belongings, they spoke loudly to the villagers they knew, and strongly encouraged them to go and have a look. It doesn't matter if you don't have skills, as long as you are willing to endure hardships and be smart, you can also find a job in the workshop, and it is not a problem to subsidize your family. The workshop is now expanding its production and is in need of manpower.

One to ten, ten to hundred, the second group quickly gathered and walked towards the workshop in high spirits.

……

In the Wood School, a group of young boys and girls slowly followed the team forward, their eyes flashed, attracted by the dazzling models on the rows of wooden shelves, and the introduction of the craftsman was as ethereal and seductive as a fairy sound.

"The formal study system of the wood school is three years: one year is apprenticeship, literacy, literacy, learning to make models, and learning to understand the basic skills of machinery; One year is a regular business, participate in the trial production of new products, strive to become a qualified craftsman, and use the knowledge and skills learned in practice; One year is for further study, which is divided into two types: one is to go to the workshop, be familiar with the process of the workshop, and determine your main direction, and the other is to go to the R&D department to participate in the design of new products. ”

A thin teenager raised his feet and said weakly, "Sir, who goes to the workshop and who goes to the R&D department?" ”

Gu Xiu, the craftsman in charge of explaining, stopped explaining and said gently: "This depends on everyone's talent. Some people have strong hands-on ability and various skills are easy to learn, and such people will go to the workshop to become craftsmen. After three years of training and internship, the graduates of the wood school do not need to be apprentices, and can directly become the fifth level of the third class, with a monthly income of 2,000. If you have the ability to manage, be a team leader, manage ten to twenty people, and have a monthly income of three thousand, which is equivalent to two hundred stones, and in the future, you will be promoted step by step according to your ability, and if you can become a master craftsman, you can reach up to two thousand stones......"

"Two thousand stones?" The boys and girls suddenly became excited and chattered.

Gu Xiu was used to seeing this kind of surprise, and waited quietly, the smile on his face unchanged.

"Then who went to R&D again?"

"The requirements of the R&D department are relatively high, not only to have good craftsmanship, but also to have a flexible brain, not afraid of failure, and to have the tenacity to hit the south wall and not look back." Gu Xiu pointed to the model on the shelf. "Some of these models are the work of the R&D department, aren't they all strange?"

The boys and girls looked at the delicate models and echoed in unison. Most of the models on this have never been seen before, and they are so strange that they don't even know what they are for, but they exude an indescribable charm.

"R&D is not afraid of weirdos, and they welcome them." Gu Xiu paused, raised his voice, and said to a few girls who gathered together and hid in the corner: "Let me tell you one thing, at present, there are three wood schools in Nanyang, Runan, and Wujun, except for the sacrificial wine of the Runan Mu School, which is a man, and the sacrificial wine of the Nanyang and Wujun Mu School is all women. It turns out that women are no worse than men in this regard. ”

"Really?" The girls' eyes widened suddenly.
