Chapter 17 Wholesale of Population (1)
Seeing the big customers entering the market, a group of tooth whirlwinds quickly surrounded them. Zhu Pingjin nodded, and Sun Hong dismounted to meet them and talked to them.
"The main family said that as long as the Sichuan male who is 14 to 17 years old has no criminal record, no hidden disease, no close relatives, those who have courage, and those who have guarantors are preferred!" Without exchanging business cards with each other, and ignoring the chatter around him, Sun Hong directly said the standard of buying people today. This is the selection criteria clearly instructed by Zhu Pingjin yesterday when he arranged for Sun Hong to be the chief negotiator of the buyer.
Some sighing sounds sounded around Sun Hong.
looks like a scholar, who knows that he is a subordinate, then the master family in his mouth must be either rich or expensive! A middle-aged toothman reacted quickly, and immediately stepped forward and said, "How many people does Childe want?" ”
"At least three hundred!"
The sigh immediately disappeared and was replaced by the sound of inhaling.
Zhu Pingjin chose men between the ages of 14 and 17 on the grounds that by the 17th year of Chongzhen, that is, three or four years later, these men would be between 17 and 21 years old. Assuming that the war lasts for another four or five years from the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the age of this group of people will also be between twenty-two and twenty-six years old, which will not be too big. Zhu Pingjin once read a material in the work of supporting the army and supporting their families, saying that the People's Liberation Army conducts physical fitness tests, and soldiers between the ages of 20 and 22 have the best physical fitness, and when they are older than this age, their physical fitness begins to decline, so the People's Liberation Army recruits soldiers first to recruit men who have reached the age of 18 and have graduated from high school to join the army, so as to ensure that their physical fitness is always maintained at the peak throughout the entire service period.
The middle-aged tooth yagged and said: "Since your lord's family only needs to be lonely (no close relatives), then what is the use of daring to ask the son to buy people?" ”
"Split rocks and repair roads; Thousands of miles to protect the business trip! Sun Hong didn't pick a good one.
This time it's a whoa.
The middle-aged Yayu didn't panic, but still arched his hand and said: "What Childe said is all dangerous and abnormal things. I don't know if someone is dead, disabled, or injured, can your lord's family give a pension? Can you manage the food and clothes of the slaves? Is there a day off every year? ”
Hey, traffickers still care about working conditions and benefits? Zhu Pingjin became interested, so he asked in front of the horse, "Who are you?" What does that mean? ”
It seems that this is the main owner of the buyer. Zhu Pingjin, who was tall and on a big horse, had a domineering aura, but the middle-aged Yayu was not suppressed: "The little one is not talented, his surname is Bao Mingzhong, when this Yayu has a certificate issued by the government." What the little one asks, it's the small rule. The home of the official gentry and the rich and noble, bought people back, and the usage is different. Some are domestic servants, some are shop servants, some are village slaves, and some generals are bought to be housekeepers. Ask clearly in advance about small matters, so as not to use the dead person when the owner's family goes back, and the relatives and neighbors report to the official and cause trouble. If there are too many such things, the reputation of the small ones in the industry will collapse, and their jobs will be ruined. ”
A group of toothymen nodded their heads in agreement. I didn't expect that there are so many exquisiteness in human trafficking, and it seems that the phrase 'there is a specialization in the art industry' applies everywhere!
So Zhu Pingjin said: "Bao Yayu is thoughtful! What are the rules for buying people, you may wish to clarify it with Mr. Sun in advance. As for how to use it by the person who bought it, this son can explain it to you now. These people bought it back and used it on the road of Tusi in the west, building roads, protecting merchants, and transporting them, so what my son wants are young men who are not afraid of death, have courage, and abide by the rules. You can make it clear to the seller that this son buys people for a period of ten years. At the end of the period, it will be released to each family, and it will be left for another negotiation voluntarily. Three meals a day, full of meals: once a month, a tooth sacrifice, with vegetables and meat; Spring and autumn clothes for each person; The salary is at least one tael per month, and those who are promoted to the head of the team will be raised according to their ranks. Half of the money is given to the individual pocket money, and half is kept by the proprietor on behalf of the owner, saving the money from eating and gambling, and the prostitute woman spends it, and returns it once after the expiration of ten years. Anyone who dies for his son will be responsible for burning and burying him; Disabled, injured and sick, this son is responsible for healing. If the disability is light, my son will arrange light work for him to do. If he is too disabled to work, this son will support him for the rest of his life! As for the days of rest, in addition to holidays, there are three days off per month, that is, one day off every 10 days. If you don't take a break because of the matter, find another time to make up for the ......"
Zhu Pingjin said clearly and bluntly, which suppressed the crowd. The other party did not avoid the matter of the dead and disabled, and it was even clear how to deal with it after the accident. Although the salary is not high, it is rare that the food tube is full and the clothes are warm. Three meals a day, full of food, at least six stone of grain a year for one person. The price of grain today is frighteningly expensive, and six stone grain is worth at least fifteen taels of silver. Even the toothymen themselves don't dare to say that they have three meals a day, and they are full, not to mention the grass labels to be sold! In addition to two seasons of clothes and twelve taels of wages, it will not be less than thirty taels a year. This wage standard, placed in the current years of war and chaos, is equivalent to the family of the general! Xiu Mu just asked casually, what's important?
Bao Yayu thought about it and felt that this treatment was reasonable in all aspects. As for the idea of these straw labels for sale, Bao Ya Yu did not consider it. If they have food to eat, they are the ancestors who have accumulated virtue, and they dare to pick and choose? Don't want to come? There are so many people who want to come! So Bao Yayu made up his mind to do this business, but he ......
Bao Yayu looked embarrassed and said, "The son is benevolent and righteous, and the little one understands." But the standard of buying people is really difficult for the little ones! ”
Bao Yayu explained that there are men between the ages of 14 and 17 in every business, but only one in ten. The rest, young or old, gender or female, physical or thin. There is no crime and no hidden disease, and each merchant must also test it when buying. If several families come out to flee together, they must also have mutual protection. It's just that they don't have relatives, and they are really difficult to do.
Why is it so difficult to do without relatives? Bao Yayu went on to explain that most of the grass labels were refugees from other places. Whether there are relatives alive, if the grass mark himself is willing to say it, if he is unwilling to say it, it is difficult for the tooth and the merchant to verify. And as far as he knew, the buyer didn't pay much attention to it. If the prince really wants someone who has no relatives, they really can't guarantee how many they can pick.
Bao Yayu's explanation made Zhu Pingjin realize that he had neglected the scientific selection criteria.
The first issue is the proportion of males between the ages of 14 and 17 in the total population. If the average age of the population is 40 years old, the males between the ages of 14 and 17 are theoretically only one-twentieth of the total population. Although the elderly, weak, women and children on the way to escape the famine are always eliminated first, this proportion is still not too high. In a large-scale war, it is necessary to fully mobilize potential human resources. The highest goal is "the mobilization of the whole people". Even women and old people have to contribute to the war.
When the prince was talking to Bao Yayu, Sun Hong always observed the actions of the prince. Seeing that the prince hesitated, Sun Hong immediately gave Bao Yayu a look and asked him to avoid it. After Bao Yayu left in a funny way, Sun Hong said: "Young master, the student thinks that the age of men may wish to be relaxed a little, and they can choose fourteen to twenty-five years old. In addition, the article of no relatives, in the opinion of students, seems to be dispensable. ”
Sun Hong went on to state: "The age of a young man between fourteen and sixteen years old is the time when his mind is undecided. The student's family has a nephew, who was smart and clever when he was young, and his family thought that he would have a good future in the future, so he saved money and sent him to school. Who knows that when he reaches the age of eating a long meal, I don't know who in the school has learned badly, five people and six people do bad things all day long, and the family doesn't know how many times to persuade it is useless, but his wife was forced to almost hang herself! The students thought that there had to be young and old in the team. In this way, the old can manage the young, the big and the small, the noble and the cheap, and the officials and the people, so that the team can be easily led. As for the article of having no relatives, the students dared to say ......"
Zhu Pingjin didn't speak, but just looked at him with encouragement.
Sun Hong was encouraged and said, "Who has no relatives? Dead or scattered. The young master is benevolent and righteous, and only uses people who have no relatives, so it is inevitable that the world will maliciously speculate. Moreover, people who have no relatives are like things without roots, drifting with the flow, without concern and without a fixed place. The young master used it, how can he use it? ”
What Sun Hong means is that management order should be established in the ranks, and the status of high and low, the level of official position, and the age of the person are the natural criteria for establishing management order. Every draft label must be mastered, and the family members of the draft label are the best handle to grasp them!
Zhu Pingjin began to be poisoned by the idea of adopting orphans and raising a righteous son, thinking that after three or four years of support, he would be able to use it for me, and he did not have enough understanding of the possibility of being counterattacked. Then he was poisoned by the doctrine of elite soldiers, thinking that if he used these 300 people as the basis and tempered for three or four years, there might be 300 key officers. Unexpectedly, their minds are undecided, and there is also a risk of becoming bad!
Zhu Pingjin recognized Sun Hong's reason in his heart, and was about to speak, when a person flashed next to him, but it was Song Zhenzong. He said in a deep voice: "In the Qin army, the conscription of the last general is a conscription of one family, one surname, one village and one village. The soldiers knew each other, and they advanced and retreated together on the battle array. As the saying goes: brothers go into battle, father and son soldiers go to war. So it is with the soldiers, and so it will be with the generals! ”
This guy really thinks he's here to recruit soldiers! Zhu Pingjin was amused in his heart, but he said to Song Zhenzong: "Remember, this son is a slave!" But wait a minute, you can choose according to the soldier's standard! ”
Without waiting for Song Zhenzong to respond, Zhu Pingjin nodded to Sun Hong again and said, "What Mr. Sun said is reasonable. Those who have no relatives can do it, and those who have relatives can also do it. If he is forced to conceal that his relatives have been selected, how can he rest assured that his parents and children are in exile? How can you fight hard? ”
Sun Hong immediately bowed down and said loudly: "The young master is really benevolent!" A few days ago, the students looked through the Zhuang book and saw that the thieves had crossed the border, and the Zhuangzi had also been poisoned, and there was an urgent need to replenish the population. For example, there are two Zhuangzi in Renshou County, only a dozen people have fled back to Chengdu, and the rest have not been heard from. Students' intentions, can the purchased family members be placed in these villages? ”
This advice is great! Not only did he choose soldiers, but he also rightfully occupied the place!
Zhu Pingjin immediately bowed his head and said, "Yes!" Mr. Lao is the buyer and resettler! Tell the tooth that he knows the rules very well, and he did a good job this time, and his son will often ask him to buy people in the future. ”
Bao Yayu watched Mr. Sun talk to the boy from afar, and suddenly heard Mr. Sun loudly praise the son's benevolence and righteousness, and he estimated that there was a drama in his heart, and then saw the boy nodding, Mr. Sun had to order him to come over, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly went up to inquire about the news.
Sun Hong said: "My lord is benevolent and righteous, and when he sees the suffering of the people, he can't bear it. The young master said, the age is relaxed, Sichuan men from 14 to 25 years old, no criminal record, no hidden diseases, and anyone with courage. However, people still want us to choose one by one. ”
Bao Yayu hurriedly asked, "The master has personally chosen, of course." It's just that the unrelated can be abolished? ”
Sun Hong replied: "Those who have no relatives can do it, and those who have relatives can also do it!" If there are young and strong families willing to join us in our house, my lord will take them together. However, these family members must be healthy, work, do things, and be honest! Also, how much does this cost? The family members are all old and weak, and the price is not comparable to the strong! My lord said, if you have a fair price, you can take care of Mr. Bao's business every year in the future. Compared to this year, the number of people will only increase, not less! ”
Bao Yayu's eyes smiled into slits, and he thanked him again and again, saying that his price was fair, and Tong Su was not deceived.
