The first batch of ready-to-wear garments made by the Dyeing and Spinning Division from scratch can only provide consumption within Yucheng. At the beginning of the establishment of the pen &www.biquge.info amp; fun & pavilion, it was difficult to sell the clothes made outside, because people in other cities and towns who could afford to buy such clothes that did not fit the body very well, and those who could not afford it could not afford it at all.

In addition, the sewing level of those people is not high, and Chen Jian is embarrassed to call the first few clothes clothes, and can only call them things that can keep out the cold.

Chen Jian is not in a hurry about this, the proficiency of the workshop workers will become higher and higher, the level of sewing will increase day by day, and the number of ready-to-wear clothes will increase every day, and one day it will be able to sell to the rest of the cities at a low price.

Ten days after the operation of the Dyeing and Textile Division's Garment Department gradually became normal, the first batch of inferior liquor produced by the farm was also transported to the city, and these inferior liquor was not filtered and distilled, and it was turbid. In the absence of distillation, the concentration of alcohol is only 12 percent at most, and the yeast will stop working.

The inferior wine has fruit peels, acorn shells, and some are sour, and the old Chinese people of Xia City are very dismissive, but it is an excellent ration for those workshop workers with meager wages.

The first rations were for the miners who were outside, and in addition to the many clay pots on the ships carrying the inferior liquor, there were also a few people who had smoked hemp leaves, and the people of Xia Cheng who were in charge of propagating the new rules related to it.

When the ship returned, it was not empty, but one more person.

Manyuan of the farm followed the navigable ship to the land of Yucheng again, and it was the second break of October, and the man who supported the boat was familiar with him, and looked curiously at the large bundle of wooden tablets he was carrying.

Many people in Yucheng know about the farm, but not many people know that Chen Jian scolded his mother because of this incident.

The person holding the boat didn't know that Chen Jian had smashed his hand because of this incident, and when he greeted Man Yuan, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. In the past, this young man was very talkative, but now he was a little preoccupied on the boat, and he had been standing silently at the bow of the boat and watching the waves break at the bow of the boat.

After going ashore, Chen Jian was told that Chen Jian was busy calculating the clay blast furnace for iron smelting, and the surface area calculation of irregular geometry and the calculation of structural forces were densely written on the cloth in order to determine the most suitable angle of the inclined plane.

When the black-clothed guard pushed open the door to report, Jian Chen didn't notice it at all.

"Ji Xia, Manyuan wants to see you."

Jian Chen suddenly raised his head and asked, "What time is it today?" ”

"On October 19, didn't you give those people in Manyuan two days off?"

"Oh, yes."

Jian Chen put down his pen and thought for a while: "That's it, you guys are outside, you stay at the door until I finish talking to Manyuan, and no one is allowed to come in." ”

The black-clothed guard nodded and left, and Jian Chen put away the cloth and poured two bowls of water himself.

After a while, Man Yuan pushed open the wooden door, the black-clothed guard closed the wooden door, and Chen Jian pointed to a linen mat and said, "Sit down." ”

Man Yuan knelt on the mat, Chen Jian handed over a bowl of water, and this time said very directly: "I thought you would come in a few more days, how about it, don't want to dig the canal?" ”

Man Yuan nodded and said, "I don't want to dig anymore." ”

"It's good if you don't want to dig it. What, figured it out? ”

Chen Jian was in a good mood for Manyuan's arrival, whether he sincerely admitted his mistake or forced to admit his mistake, he was very happy. This is a talent, among the same group of young people in the academy, he is on par with Ji Yun, and this is also the two people that Chen Jian values the most. Without him, there will be more and more things to be taken care of in the future, and someone will have to share them.

In terms of his age, he is about the same age as him, and he will not be regarded as the core of Xia Cheng's next generation, but in this generation, he is a character who can be in charge of one side alone, as long as he does not die, this person will not be able to make big waves, even if he pretends to admit his mistakes, he will do a good job.

Man Yuan took a sip of water and said in a low voice: "Ji Xia, I have been thinking about what you said in my work for the past few days, and when I think about it, I think I am really wrong, so I came to Yucheng after I figured it out, hoping to talk to you." ”

"I've figured out the mistake I made, and I've heard about Ji Xia smashing her hand. I know that Ji Xia is not angry about the wheat fields that have been harvested this year, but my attitude towards this matter. ”

"I admit all the mistakes that Ji Xia said, and I swear that I will never argue about this matter again, and I will never try to turn the mistakes of this matter into right, never."

"As you say, it is only in the work that you can understand how wrong you are in the first place. I now support Ji Xia's decision, once someone makes a mistake, it is necessary to go to the farm to work and reform. I was against it at first, but now I'm very supportive. ”

"When I was at the farm, someone secretly instigated and tried to make everyone admit their mistakes. Because once you admit your mistake, it is not a simple farming accident, but a mistake of passive confrontation in your heart. But I thought, if it's wrong, it's wrong, so what if you don't admit it? ”

"The people on the farm, I don't have a lot of contact with them, and they only come together because they make the same mistakes. When someone tried to convince everyone not to admit their mistakes, if it weren't for Ji Xia's previous words, maybe I would have been even more wrong. ”

"When I set foot in Yucheng, I saw a lot of familiar people busy digging canals there, and I was very sad."

"I'm not saying I can't do such things as digging canals, but I've been in the academy for two years, and I've been to many places with Ji Song, and I can do more and more difficult work, not just digging canals."

"Ji Xia, I'm only seventeen years old this year, my body is fine, and my mind is still clear, I hope Ji Xia will reconsider what I can do. I don't think I can do more for the people of Xia Cheng than digging canals. ”

After Manyuan finished speaking, he took out a bunch of wooden slips and handed them over, and said while Chen Jian was looking through them: "These are some of my thoughts about the farm these days, and with the last time Ji Xia built a winemaking workshop, I thought about it a lot. These may not all be useful, not all of them may be useful, and I still hope that Ji Xia and the Planning and Statistics Division will review it. ”

Jian Chen waved his hand, signaling him not to say it yet, and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but nod in praise.

This is a detailed plan, and basically every one of them is practical, and it is by no means something that those who were casually caught by Jian Chen on the farm could come up with. Those people are okay step by step, but it is still a little worse to make such a practical plan, and they will soon devote themselves to the construction of the iron-smelting workshop, and it is impossible for the farm to be the foundation of Yucheng's future survival without finding a person with strong ability to take charge of it, and it is indeed impossible for him to manage everything himself.

From the collection of thatch this winter to the spring ploughing plan next spring, using Manyuan's farm as a sample, several simple workshops were carefully formulated to survive this winter according to Chen Jian's original plan.

Now most of the people in the farm are still digging meaningless canals, and Chen Jian also knows that this is not a long-term solution, and after carefully reading this wooden tablet, he praised: "The writing is good, basically you can do it." In particular, when the river recedes in late autumn and early winter, the method of blocking the river fork for fishing is very good, and the purpose is clear. One is that it can be eaten, and the other is that the amount of fish maw glue in the woodworking department will indeed increase next year, and it is not wrong to reserve it in advance. You do think more than the men I sent to the farm, and that's your merit. ”

Chen Jian put down the wooden tablet, turned around a few times with his hands behind his back, Man Yuan peeked at Chen Jian a few times, and for a long time Chen Jian said: "In this way, you sort out the words you just said to me, make it clear what you think you are wrong, and admit your mistake in front of everyone." ”

Man Yuan just wanted to say something, but Chen Jian interrupted: "I asked you to work, not because you made me unhappy, so it is useless for you to admit your mistake to me, but to admit your mistake to the clansmen here." I think it's tomorrow, I'll call all the people above the eighth rank in Yucheng together, and you can tell me your perception of this mistake, which can be regarded as a warning to the rest of the people, so that they don't follow in your footsteps. ”

"Don't feel ashamed to admit your mistakes, Xia Cheng's rules, don't ask your heart, you admit your mistakes so that you don't make mistakes in the future, not to criticize you."

"I don't like that many things in Xia Cheng are hidden in the house and settled, Xia Cheng is still the Xia Cheng of the Xia Cheng clan after all, and some things are better explained clearly in front of everyone. You think about it. ”

Chen Jian didn't give any promises, and he didn't even tell Man Yuan that if he admitted his mistake, he could continue to be an official without having to repair the canal, and he wanted to tell Man Yuan that this matter was not a battle of will, not a matter of personal preference.

It is to make the clansmen and Manyuan understand that this is a dispute between rules and regulations, a clear distinction between right and wrong, a dispute between two ways of thinking and attitudes towards the concept of labor and officials, and that there is a right and wrong.

There is no right or wrong in the battle of two people's wills, only the weak admit defeat to the strong but do not admit mistakes, this is not.

To admit one's mistake in front of everyone is to admit that he agrees with Jian Chen's attitude towards the concept of labor and officials, and vows never to turn what is wrong into right.

If you don't agree, then don't admit your mistakes, continue to persevere, and dig a canal in the field for three years for the sake of right and wrong in your heart.

Man Yuan thought for a long time, and finally nodded, "I agree." ”

"Then you prepare, let's have dinner together in the evening. Tomorrow morning, I will call all the people of the eighth rank and above, and you will not only talk about your own mistakes, but also about these things on your wooden tablets. Seriously, you're pretty good at writing, and that's something to learn from. On the one hand, being wrong does not mean that you are wrong in everything, and this point must also be clarified, and you cannot say that you are useless because you are wrong in one thing. ”

"Go ahead, go and get ready, I still have something to do here."

Manyuan put down the wooden tablet and retreated to the door with a lot of concern, and when he went out, he and the red fish bumped into each other, and smiled at each other.

Hongyu walked into the room, pinched Jian Chen's shoulder, and asked casually, "Manyuan came to admit his mistake?" ”

"Hmm."

"Your solution may be good, but how is it different from what I said? Will you be able to watch over all the people who come over in the future? What's the difference between you and Ji Song? In the end, it doesn't take a wise, diligent leader who can see people wrong. ”

Jian Chen lay back, took a long breath and said, "You are wrong. In the future, it will not be me who will judge right and wrong, but the people of the country above all the people. Officials for the people, not officials and herdsmen. People are not sheep, and Xia Cheng is the summer city of the Chinese people. ”

"I am only temporarily entrusting the rights of the countrymen, and I will return them in the future."

Hongyu shook his head and said, "But there are not many Chinese people in the farm now. ”

"There will be in the future."

"You don't like the election system."

"So it's not a recommendation, it's just a regulation."

"Even if what you say is right, can the most ordinary people tell the difference between right and wrong?"

"I believe so. Chinese people aren't stupid, are they? ”

"Oh, I hope." (To be continued.) )
