Ruan Xiaoqi is a beggar in Cangzhou, seeing that the end of summer has arrived, winter is coming, the autumn wind on the street is more cold than a while, Ruan Xiaoqi has to wrap the thin jacket on his body today, he is very worried in his heart, now he is penniless, seeing that winter is coming, he has no food, no clothes, I am afraid that he will freeze to death. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ruan Xiaoqi has always been reluctant to sell himself into slavery, he would even rather die than throw his life to those rich families to trample on like weeds, his mother was forced to hang herself by those rich people, so Ruan Xiaoqi hated those rich businessmen and high-ranking officials, in his few memories, none of those people were good people.

Ruan Xiaoqi was thinking about his thoughts, and walked towards the wharf where the goods were towed, now the canal outside Cangzhou City has not frozen, and the merchant ships from the south will also transport materials from the waterway, where a lot of manpower is generally required to unload the goods, although there is no salary, but as long as you help unload the goods for a day, it is normal to take care of two full meals.

Ruan Xiaoqi was already very hungry, in the past two days, he had only eaten two buns the day before yesterday, and he could only drink gruel, but now that the hidden rice was finished, he couldn't even drink the porridge, so Ruan Xiaoqi could only go to the dock to try his luck to see if there was a boat boss who needed him to help with the work, and also mixed a full meal to relieve the hunger in his stomach.

Walking towards the dock step by step, before he reached the dock, Ruan Xiaoqi saw a group of people gathered in front of the dock, crowded with people, rubbing shoulders, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Ruan Xiaoqi squeezed into the crowd curiously, he was also strange, he didn't see the big boat coming, why were there so many people on the dock?

After passing through the thick crowd, Ruan Xiaoqi was shocked by the scene in front of him, only to see countless white bags piled up like a hill, and a person dressed as a bookkeeper set up a table and chair next to the hill, sitting there and transcribing something.

I saw a man in the prime of life happily registering his name and place of origin, and then someone carried a bag of white bags from the small white mountain and sent it to the middle-aged man.

Ruan Xiaoqi took a closer look, only to find that the prime man was his old acquaintance, it was Second Uncle Chen, who often carried goods at the dock.

"Second Uncle Chen! Second Uncle Chen! Ruan Xiaoqi shouted loudly.

The middle-aged man who was about to leave with a white bag heard someone calling his name, and turned his head to see that it was Ruan Qi'er, who also turned around happily and walked over to greet him.

"Ruan Qi'er, you are not begging in the city, why are you coming to the dock again?"

"Second Uncle Chen, I can't get food in the city recently, and the kid is dying of hunger, so I came to the dock to find a job to have a full meal, but I didn't expect this dock to be fenced, Second Uncle Chen, what are you carrying on your shoulders?"

When the young man heard Ruan Xiaoqi's inquiry, the smile on his face became even worse, and he only heard him smile and said: "We have a wealthy gold lord in Cangzhou City, and now the city is recruiting laborers, I heard that we want to help expand the city wall together, as long as we go to work for three days, we will be given such a bag of high-quality white rice, which is simply given away for nothing, and now the brothers have signed up, and they will receive the white rice first, and they will officially go to repair the city tomorrow." ”

Ruan Xiaoqi stared at the white rice on Uncle Chen's shoulder, his eyes were straight, it seemed that the white bag was not small at all, not to mention that there were thirty catties of big white rice, thirty catties of big white rice, oh my God, that would be enough for how many days he could eat, even if he used these white rice to survive this winter!

Thinking of this, the corners of Ruan Xiaoqi's mouth were a little dry, and he tried his best to hold back the excitement in his heart and asked, "Second Uncle Chen, can I also sign up?" I want to eat white rice too! ”

When the strong man heard this, he laughed and said: "Okay, okay, the bookkeeper said, their lord said, as long as it is a man over eighteen years old, even if it is disabled, you didn't turn eighteen last year, you will definitely be able to go!" ”

When Ruan Xiaoqi heard this, he jumped up happily, and then said loudly: "Thank you, Second Uncle Chen, then I'll go to the queue to register now!" With that, he ran to the back of a long line and lined up....

Early this morning, a kind of specially printed paper swept the entire Cangzhou City, similar to the big-character posters of later generations, this kind of paper that does not know the source occupies the topic of Cangzhou for a day, that is, someone wants to pay for the repair of the city.

Repairing the city is not a big deal, but this time, the reward given by repairing the city shocked everyone, three days of thirty catties of high-quality white rice, converted, equivalent to a day's wages is ten catties of high-quality white rice, this is simply a pie in the sky is a good thing, in Cangzhou, a pound of brown rice is sold on the street for at least five hundred dollars, not to mention white rice, even if it is two pounds of money, some rich and noble people don't care, ten pounds of high-quality white rice a day, I'm afraid the value of twenty dollars is just the lowest estimate.

There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and there is a horse boss in later generations who once said a wise saying, "There are only two reasons for employees to resign, one is money, which is not in place." The second is the heart, which has been wronged. ’

Now the money given by Jiang Yin can be said to be enough in place, in the Great Song Dynasty, whether the heart is wronged or not, it is all decided to see whether the money is in place, with the rapid spread of big-character posters, the surrounding counties outside Cangzhou City have also begun to have people know that there is a gold owner in Cangzhou City, and they have put down their work at home and rushed to the city to sign up for repairs.

One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, the entire Cangzhou area, just like the city god temple fair, groups of strong laborers came to the dock in the city to sign up.

In this regard, Jiang Yin also does not refuse to come, how much he receives, compared with money, what he lacks now is these large-scale labor.

With more and more personnel, the placement of these workers has also become a major task, Jiang Yin bought a few good guys from the Yaren market, one of them is named Wang Fu is very capable, I heard that he used to be a big housekeeper in the family of a rich businessman in the south, and then the rich merchant was defeated, so he resigned and left, and returned to his hometown in Cangzhou to make a living, Jiang Yin handed over everyone's personnel placement to him to manage, and told him that when the matter is done, he can become Jiang Yin's lifelong employment housekeeper in the future, and it is messed up, Then roll up and leave early.

So this Wang Fu took dozens of people to check his identity all day long, they have seen Jiang Yin's wealth, this is a towering cash cow, if you miss it, you will really regret it for the rest of your life.

Jiang Yin and Lin Yue are responsible for managing the tasks in life and work, Di Yan and Yun Feihu are naturally in charge of security and management, plus a bunch of newly recruited guys, everything is only arranged in an orderly manner.

Piles of tents were set up outside the city, looking like colorful dirt bags, full of different kinds of fun, these ancients, but full of novelty for this kind of tent, they did not expect that there are such exquisite and simple small houses in this world, one by one in the tent back and forth, like neighbors visiting each other.

After everything was arranged, Jiang Yin stood on the city tower, looked at the maps that had been divided outside the city, touched his chin and said to himself: It's time to start......
