By the time the road here is almost repaired, other teams have already transported it to the river. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The weather is getting colder, and a lot of wine is rationed from Yucheng to the mines, and the shoddy and shoddy wine is easy to paralyze the nerves of the miners, so that they can go to bed early after being tired and get together to make trouble. Half of the bad wine is grain, and half of it is a mess of starchy and sugary wild fruits, weeds, and grass roots, etc., which are very popular as rations, at least not for a meager monthly salary.

Along with these inferior liquors, there was also a roving trial: several of the Yucheng workshop workers did not know from which clan they had learned the way to relax—a group of people collected a large number of hemp leaves, and after baking, they sniffed the smoke produced by the hemp leaves, which was said to be more comfortable than drinking—the first group of people were arrested and traveled around the court to explain the new rules of Yucheng, and they were expelled from Onozawa to fend for themselves, which was the most severe punishment.

This incident is also an incentive to promote the supply and marketing department to distribute bad wine to the workshop workers, and the continuous transmission of new things, new rules and new news to the mine, the people of Xiacheng here can only imagine what happened in Yucheng through speculation.

When the frost began to appear in the night, several people from Xiacheng who were in charge of the affairs got together to drink without greeting Ji Yun.

Of course, they don't drink low-quality, low-quality dispensed wine, but good steamed corn wine.

A few bowls of wine are down, and some things that you don't say on weekdays can't be controlled.

"Phew, what is that Ji Yun? He did something like that in Xia Cheng, and no one here used him for Ji Xia. If you look at him, he can write, huh? Does he count? He also made a wooden tablet and handed it over, as if he couldn't speak. ”

Several people were a little angry, what they cared about was not that Ji Yun could write, but that when Jian Chen was leaving, he encouraged Ji Yun and said that he would give him some brushes and loose ink.

Brush loose ink is not worth anything, anyone who drinks can afford it, but being remembered by the leader is not as simple as brush loose ink.

"That kid hasn't dug any mines lately, and he's building roads there every day. What does he want to do? Isn't there no road the same way to carry it? ”

"Does he want to use the car to transport it to the river?"

"Can't! Do you know how many taubes are in a set of wheels? Although he made some money catching slaves in Xia City, he couldn't buy a few sets. ”

"Besides, you can't buy copper shells nowadays. A few days ago, I asked a few people who were transporting grain to this side, and they said that this year's plan for the carpentry division was full, and the wheels and carts were needed for the rest of the cities. Until the plan is completed, a set of wheels is also not sold in Yucheng. ”

"The group of people in the carpentry division can't do much in a day, and they are all new hands under their hands, and they just started to learn mortise and tenon to make beams and tiles."

When I was in Xia Cheng, there were Taobei who wanted to buy whatever they wanted, and as long as there were enough Taobei, someone would do it. Nowadays, there are Taobei, and you can buy what the supply and marketing department sells.

The carpenters are encouraged to do something by themselves after completing the quota, but how can they have time to do this kind of private work? If you have time, you have to be busy teaching the people below, and you are looking forward to completing more quotas and raising your rank and official rank. It may be okay to make a small wooden box, but don't think about making wheels, especially the bronze at the junction of the hub and axle, the bladder glue for bonding, and even the wood suitable for making wheels are all controlled materials, and you can't get them out at all.

After a few bowls of wine, these people didn't care about the new system in Yucheng, they only related to their own side of the matter, and they became more and more puzzled.

One of them scolded: "What the hell is this kid going to do? Although Ji Xia likes to build roads, he can also make it clear. The first thing we have to do is to complete the quota before the year, then we can be regarded as worthy of our own rank, and the rest is the dependence on promotion. ”

"Yes, I built a road, and I looked good when I waited for Ji Xia to come, but what was the use? Carrying ore to the river is the most important thing! ”

Thinking of Ji Xia's encouragement to Ji Yun before, the flame of jealousy was even more vigorous under the help of the spirits.

"Whatever. It is his business to not be able to complete the quota a year ago, and it has nothing to do with us. Drink. He doesn't associate with us, and we don't care about him. Hey, by the way, didn't Yucheng go to a few people to help you build the stove the day before yesterday? Is the coal you dig easy to burn? Better than Chai He? ”

"It's good, it's much better. The people who came used to follow the tanuki and they learned from the mason, and I women from their clan's ......"

As soon as he finished speaking, several people heaved and said, "Ji Xia is not allowed to say that, at most, which one is he, and who is Lisi." Nowadays, there are no clans, only surnames. If you want to say that in Summer City, Ris will have to look for you. Nowadays, it is said that the clan is not as good as its neighbors, and when they go out to fight wars and levy labor, they are all managed according to one mile and one place. ”

The man also smiled, waved his hand, and said, "That's it." The man came and made a stove, and made a gap with bricks underneath, unlike a wood-burning stove, which was empty underneath. Hey, don't say it, coal is so easy to burn, burn a little and it will be hot. A basket of coal can be burned much longer than a basket of firewood. ”

He looked at the crowd rather ostentatiously and asked, "Do you know why?" ”

Everyone shook their heads, and the man said with the strength of the wine: "I have been thinking about it for several days, and I finally figured it out. You think, firewood is wet, your basket of fresh wood may be about the same weight as coal, but if you dry the wood, it will be far worse. ”

The man smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will ask a few people to get you a stove, and it will be cold soon, so you can go to my place and come back to burn some coal, so you won't have to go out to collect firewood." Don't tell Ji Yun over there, this kid is day by day, I can't look down on him like that day, what's wrong with being able to write? I will, I bah. In the future, if this kid wants to get coal, sooner or later he will look for me. ”

At the same time, by the way, it also caused everyone's dissatisfaction with Ji Yun, which inevitably expanded after drinking: "I don't think we can be officials if we don't enter the academy in the future, we have worked hard to do so many things and fought so many battles, hehe...... Not as many people as Ji Yunguan? Or did he make a mistake as a tax collector, and what if he didn't? ”

The two people who were still sober hurriedly put the wine bowl on it and said, "You drank too much again, what do you mean Ji Yun?" Or is it Ji Xia? Our kids still have to go to school, but don't think about it. ”

The scene was a little awkward for a while, only the sound of firewood, and after a while, someone changed the topic to break the embarrassment and asked, "Hey, I heard that you almost had an accident a few days ago?" ”

"Hey, don't mention it. When I was digging, I didn't pay attention to the layer of soil on it, so I thought that it was troublesome to dig this soil, so I simply dug a pit and dug in. As a result, at night, it collapsed with a bang. Fortunately, they all finished work at night, and if it was during the day, a few more would have died. Ji Xia said that there are 300 people in each team, and a maximum of ten deaths a year will occur, and if something happens yesterday, I will be finished. ”

"You should also pay attention in the future, if it doesn't work, it's like our copper mine, propped up with wood. If you take a little effort, you can do it slowly, and if you don't die, you just don't die. The quota is not much, and it was completed a few years ago. ”

"Yes, yes, let's get together and talk about anything in the future. Say what you need to say, and don't say something. By the way, you should also pay attention to the matter of the sackcloth leaves, Ji Xia is very concerned about this matter. It is said that if we Xia City people also go to smell the smoke of that leaf, the merit will be emptied. ”

I drank until midnight, said some heart-to-heart words, exchanged some experiences on how to reduce the number of dead, and saw that it was not too early before I dispersed.

At the other end of the mine, the bonfire was blazing, and the shouts of thirty people resounded in the night sky, waking up Ji Yun, who was already asleep, and shouted: "Ji Yun, our team's road has been repaired, come and see!" ”

The woman in the house was very dissatisfied, the child was woken up and was crying there, and only after a few complaints, Ji Yun hurriedly put on her clothes and went out.

On weekdays, he is not blind, and he checks every day how comfortable Lu Xiu is, walks through the scene and takes a look, and looks at the thirty tired people: "The repair is good, I have wine in the house, and I share it with you and eat it." Tomorrow I will ask someone to send a message to Ji Xia, and within fifteen days, the slave girl will definitely send it down. ”

Everyone cheered, Ji Yun brought out the wine, sat by the fire and talked with everyone: "The road is finished, there are other things to do in the future." Now that the slave girl has not come, I will not say much, and when the slave girl comes, I will send it to you, and then I will talk about the future. ”

The leader only said that he could be trusted, but he kept silent, only drank a bowl of wine with the group, laughed and said that he would not take your share if he didn't have much wine, and then left.

Two days later, the roads to be repaired by the ten teams were completed, and the people in the back were listless, knowing that there was no reward except for the fastest, but thinking that there would be other things after that, they didn't dare to drag it out too much.

Ji Yun stirred up a few more words between the teams, and because of this incident, there was a contradiction, and the three hundred people had a gap with each other, but they all believed him. The rift between the three hundred had crept in, and it was no longer possible to respond as much as it had when they first arrived, except for him.

This was especially true when the ten slave girls arrived, and thirty people rejoiced.

Ji Yun said and did it again, and he had the confidence to speak, so he told everyone not to be in a hurry to mine first, but only went to the mountains to cut wood, cut some rattan bark, and took this group of people to quietly do a good job of climbing the plow and hiding, and then officially mined.

He did not let the people carry baskets of earth to the river, but dug in the mountains and piled them up beside the road that had been repaired.

From the mountain to the side of the road, there are only 100 short steps, and the ten teams are divided into two groups, one group digs the back of one group, and changes every three days.

By holding the right to distribute food, the team that digs the most and carries the most every day will have more oil and water at the time of eating, as a reward.

The rest of the mountains were dug nearly a month earlier than Ji Yun's side, but they were seven or eight miles away from the river, and they were tired of carrying five or six trips a day.

There are not many people digging every day, and there are many people carrying them, and although they have accumulated for a month to achieve this month's plan, there is not much more.

And the people digging on Ji Yun's side are about the same as the people on their backs, and within three or five days, the ones piled up at the intersection are already almost the same as those piled up by the river on the rest of the hills.

He was not in a hurry, and continued to ask people to dig and select the pile, and some miners saw that he treated him well, so they reminded him whether he should carry it to the river, and he thanked them for giving him some wine and meat, but did not do it. (To be continued.) )
