Early in the morning, the station of the 101,000th household of the Fifth Capital Division of Xibo suddenly remembered the bell of the assembly, and a melodious bell of "Dong Dong Dong" floated by, and the whole station suddenly seemed to explode, and about 1,000 strong people ran out of their own buildings with weapons and went straight to the school field in the middle of the station.

Luo Zongshan of the 101,000th household was standing under the pine tree in the middle of the school yard and slammed it on the bronze bell with a sassal wood.

Seeing that everyone had almost arrived, Luo Zongshan was still there to bang the bell hard, so he couldn't help but walk behind him, and shouted in his voice: "Boss, what's the matter, you hurry up, don't keep ringing the bell." “

Luo Zongshan trembled by his roar, grandma's, this collision was getting stronger, he was suddenly interrupted, and he was startled, Luo Zongshan was so angry, he turned around and yelled at Lao Zhang: "What boss, how many times have I told you, call me Lord Qianhu." “

Lao Zhang's frightened neck shrank, and he hurriedly raised his head and made a standard military salute, and shouted: "My subordinates see Lord Qianhu." “

Luo Zongshan was still angry, and shouted at the messy guards below: "What are you shouting when you stand there, don't hurry up and line up, whoever doesn't stand up, I'll kill him." “

The people below were also frightened by his roar, and hurriedly lined up, and soon more than a thousand people lined up neatly, it seems that they don't know how to queue up, but they haven't gotten used to lining up as soon as they gather.

Looking at the neat line, Luo Zongshan's anger went down, in fact, he was in a pretty good mood, but he was startled by Lao Zhang's roar in the back, and then he became angry.

After roaring twice at this time, the anger was almost gone, he wiped the sweat on his head, adjusted the Chongzheng clothes on his body, and then, raised his head and chest, and said loudly: "Lao Xie." “

Baihu Lao Xie hurriedly stepped forward, gave a standard military salute, and then said loudly: "The subordinates are here." “

Luo Zongshan directly ordered: "Bring your people to collect all the old straw mats from each household and bring them over." “

Lao Xie was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "My lord, what do you want so many straw mats for?" “

When Luo Zongshan heard this, he shouted directly: "Why are you asking so much, don't you remember the military regulations and military discipline, don't you hurry up, be careful that I smoke you." “

When Lao Xie heard this, he hurriedly answered yes, and then hurriedly collected straw mats with his three hundred people.

Luo Zongshan said to the hundred households again: "How much grain is there in the coal mine?" “

Lao Zhang thought for a while and replied, "Four or five hundred people are probably enough to eat for ten days." “

When Luo Zongshan heard this, he directly ordered: "Take your people to pull thirty carts of grain, five pigs, and ten empty carriages." “

Lao Zhang didn't dare to ask anything now, so he answered directly, and then left with four or five hundred of his subordinates.

At this time, the school field was already more than half empty, and there were only a few hundred households such as Lao Wang and Lao Cai standing there with more than 300 people.

Luo Zongshan thought for a while, and then ordered: "Lao Wang, you take the rest of the people to pick a cart of vegetables." “

Luo Zongshan stood there and thought about it, then slapped his forehead and ran to the warehouse where the bacon was stored.

In less than half an hour, everyone gathered on the school field again, Luo Zongshan directly threw the bacon in his hand on the empty carriage, and then ordered: "Lao Xie, put all the straw mats on the cart." “

When Lao Xie heard this, he beckoned, and his subordinates immediately piled the straw mats in their arms on the empty carriage, and it took seven or eight carts to finish.

Luo Zongshan then ordered: "Lao Zhang, knock the pig unconscious, put it in the car, assemble the team, go to the coal mine, Lao Xie, Lao Wang, you go and do your own work." “

This order, inexplicable, no one can figure it out, halfway to the road, Lao Zhang really couldn't help it, he hit the horse carefully leaned to the edge of Luo Zong Mountain, and said with a smile: "Hehe, Lord Qianhu, what a good day today, you got up early in the morning, and went to the mine with so many things." “

Luo Zongshan said mysteriously: "Today is the day of recruitment. “

Lao Zhang was overjoyed when he heard this: "Recruitment, you mean that the labor organized by the imperial court is coming?" “

Luo Zongshan nodded and sighed: "Yes, it will be here this afternoon, I hope to recruit more." “

Lao Zhang asked puzzledly: "My lord, what do you mean that there are not enough people?" “

Luo Zongshan nodded again and sighed: "Yes, we have a total of sixteen mines in the Fifth Capital Division of Xibo, but the labor that came over is only one car, at most about 5,000 people, and it would be good to be able to recruit 500 people." “

This can't be helped, because there are more mountains in the jurisdiction of the fifth capital division of Xibo, there are more mineral deposits found, but it is impossible for the imperial court to arrange an extra carload of people for them, for the sake of fairness, this batch, each capital division is a carload of people, and if you want more people, you will have to wait for next year. ”

This time, due to the carriage, the group walked for about an hour before arriving at the mine, but it was still early at this time, and the hundreds of guards on duty had only gotten up, and they had not yet started work.

Luo Zongshan has handed over all his 300 people to Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang's total of 600 people, specifically responsible for mining, due to the poor conditions of the mine, they have to go back every day, leaving only 100 people here to take turns to guard, in fact, there are a lot of houses in the mine, and it is no problem to live thousands of people, but they just can't recruit people, so they have been empty there.

After Luo Zongshan arrived at the mine, he announced: Stop work for one day today!

Now, five or six hundred young men are excited, digging coal every day is actually quite tiring, and it is naturally good to have a day off.

Then Luo Zongshan took people to inspect the houses of the mine, and left 500 people, and asked them to clean up all the rooms, kill all the five pigs, stew them in a large pot, and make noodles and white buns for 500 people, waiting to welcome the newcomers.

After arranging all this, he took Lao Zhang and a hundred guards, straw mats on his back, and bacon to the station of the mine.

At this time, a coal truck had been parked there, and since the work had not yet started, all five cars were empty, but they were dark and dirty inside.

Luo Zongshan said hello to the driver, and ordered someone to find a broom, clean it up, and then ordered someone to directly spread the straw mat on the bottom of the carriage, spreading layer after layer, like a bed, the cushion is soft and comfortable.

Lao Zhang was distressed, and couldn't help but persuade: "My lord, we will take these straw mats to sleep next year, how can we sleep this whole time?" “

Luo Zongshan rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Don't do it, I'll buy you a new one next year." “

Thousands of straw mats are indeed not a matter for Luo Zongshan, Lao Zhang also realized that he is a rich man at this time, and he still feels sorry for what straw mats, work hard, the old does not go, the new does not come!

After nearly a quarter of an hour, the straw mat was finally laid, and Luo Zongshan ran to say hello to the driver again, asking him to drive directly to the fortress where the fifth capital division was located.
