Chapter 59 Those who win the hearts of the people win the world
Now that the decision to relocate the population has been made, it is necessary to be prepared to accept and resettle, which requires a large number of houses.
Now there are thousands of people in the valley, and the houses in the valley that were originally from the time of horse thieves are no longer enough to live, and many people are crowded together to make do.
It's summer, so it's no big problem to make do with it. Moreover, Hao Jian purchased a batch of military tents from the system market and also resettled some people.
But in general, the house must be built, and the specifications must be of a certain standard. The so-called living and working in peace and contentment, the people will have a good house to live in, and they will be in a happy mood, so that they can better integrate into this new collective, which is also a good help for Hao Jian's personal prestige.
According to Hao Jian's vision, it is best to make all houses made of stone, which is durable and can prevent fire. But the problem is that a stone house consumes too many materials and man-hours, so it will definitely be unrealistic for a while, so we have to settle for the next best thing and build a wooden house.
Fortunately, the valley is densely wooded, so it is completely possible to use local materials. Moreover, there were many carpenters among these people, and all of them were organized to work wood, and then women, children, and children could work as small workers, and the construction of houses was still very fast.
"Strategist, you still have to supervise the construction of the people's houses, you have to speed up, it is best to be able to drive out the houses that can accommodate about 2,000 people within three days, and let the people who come have a place to live."
Hao Jian took Liu Ji, Bai Mu and others to inspect the construction site of the residence, and explained to Liu Ji while watching.
"General, it is not easy to drive out the house of two thousand people in three days, and it is still possible to do it with a thousand people. After all, we have limited manpower now, and there are only more than 30 carpenters, so this efficiency will definitely not be improved. Liu Jidao.
Hao Jian pondered for a while, and said to Bai Mu behind him: "Pass my order, the military camp project will be temporarily stopped, let all the engineers bring tools to help here, and continue to build the military camp after the construction of the house is completed." ”
Bai Mu turned around and quickly took the order.
"Strategist, I know this is a difficult task, but we must let the people who come here feel our sincerity and strength as soon as possible, so that the people can trust us and return to us. I don't know how others understand this sentence, but for me it is indeed a golden rule. If there are not enough men, I will send some soldiers over to help. So, please! ”
Hao Jian's tone was solemn and his attitude was solemn, Liu Ji couldn't help but become solemn, and bowed deeply to Hao Jian and said sincerely: "General, there are many people who have said this sentence throughout the ages, but there are not many people who really practice this sentence like this. The general sincerely thinks about the people, Liu Ji admires it, and he will definitely live up to the general's expectations. ”
Hao Jian nodded and smiled slightly without explanation, he knew that Liu Ji and he definitely didn't understand the same meaning.
Of course he didn't pretend to brag, of course this is a golden rule for him, and he can't make soldiers without the people, so he must gather more and more people, and then he has to treat the people well.
This should also be the balance of the system, I don't want to turn myself into a war maniac who only knows how to fight and kill but does not understand the people's livelihood and suffering.
After leaving the construction site, Hao Jian led the people straight to the coal digging site deep in the valley.
It was not the first time Hao Jian had seen this lakeside deep in the valley, but he was still amazed by its vastness and clear beauty.
When the valley arrives here, it is exactly at the widest part of the gourd valley, that is, the heart of the entire valley. Not to mention the thousands of acres of grassy wasteland around the lakeside, just one lakeside is the size of dozens of football fields.
Hao Jian has not seen a big lake, many lakesides in later generations are actually much larger than this lakeside, but in such an inaccessible valley, it is naturally very rare to have such a large and pure lakeside.
The surface of the lake is sparkling and shimmering in the sun, and from time to time fish leap out of the water, then make a graceful arc in the air and finally dive back into the water.
There is even a flock of wild ducks swimming in groups on the surface of the lake, with their flat beaks sticking into the water from time to time to hunt fish and shrimp.
A few aquatic weeds emerged from the bottom of the water, swaggering in the middle of the lake, and an unknown waterfowl lightly flipped out of the aquatic weeds, holding a fat fish in its mouth.
A breeze blows, and the surface of the lake is covered with layers of ripples like fish scales, which is simply refreshing.
Jumping off the horse, Hao Jian couldn't help but stand by the lake, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.
The air by the lake seems to be a little sweet, with a hint of the fishy smell of the lake, which is the real smell of nature.
Hao Jian, who was accustomed to smog in his previous life, was deeply intoxicated during the period, and couldn't help but think of the poet who died early in his previous life and his well-known poem: "I have a house, facing the sea, and the spring flowers are blooming." ”
Hao Jian couldn't help but want to leave everything behind, just build a house by this lake, marry a wife, have two children, raise three old dogs, catch four or five fish a day, warm rice wine on the red clay stove, accompanied by beautiful women, children around the knees, old dogs sleeping soundly, how happy, I don't know how many times stronger than this day of fighting and killing.
It's a pity that his beautiful imagination was quickly woken up by reality.
"My lord, Hai Dongqing brought it." Bai Mu said behind him that he was ordered to bring Hai Dongqing from the coal digging site.
Hao Jian sighed, as if lamenting that this good time was always too short. When he opened his eyes again, the relaxed look on his face was gone, replaced by a resolute look.
"Master Haida, don't come unharmed?" Hao Jian didn't look back and asked lightly.
"Drag your blessing, not dead yet." Hai Dongqing's words were full of resentment.
Hao Jian smiled: "Listening to this, I feel very aggrieved." But also, being robbed of the foundation, and becoming a half-dead prisoner digging coal, is a personal unhappy. I understand very well. ”
"The surname Hao, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't beat around the bush with Lao Tzu. If you have a kind, you will kill Lao Tzu, and if Lao Tzu screams, you will be my Lao Tzu. After these days of waiting, Hai Dongqing also knew that he might not have a way to live.
He could see that the white-faced scholar surnamed Hao was not a good stubble, so he simply stopped admitting it in words and regained his demeanor as a horse thief leader.
"There is really a kind of big boss. However, if you die, your lovely twin daughters will have no father, can you bear it? Hao Jian was not annoyed at all, turned around and looked at Hai Dongqing, who had an unhappy face, and smiled slightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Hai Dongqing suddenly trembled, and his face changed instantly.
