Chapter 102: Passive Confrontation
As the construction of the headland island gradually got on the right track, Chen Jian's mood gradually improved, and his hoarse voice could finally make movements that did not look like bird calls. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But this good mood did not last for two days, first of all, the workshop workers on the headland did not know the habit of the clan, and gathered together to barbecue hemp leaves and smell them during the break, which was a kind of thread used to weave linen.
Originally, this was just something that the primitive priests of the clan used to smoke to keep their heads clear or communicate with the gods, and it was common all over the mountains, and it could be used as a substitute for linen hemp, so it was normal to have this habit.
These workshop workers are tired from life and can't afford to buy alcohol, so they have to relax in this way, anyway, there is not much hope for life, and it is impossible for them to want to do great things like those people.
This matter is not a big deal, and it can be banned in time, but just when a group of people were sitting around the house listening to Jian Chen talk about the dangers of smoking, several black-clothed guards came in and said a few words to Jian Chen.
At that time, there were more than a dozen people sitting around the room, all of whom were high-level officials in charge of many workshop workers on the headland island, and they didn't know what the black-clothed guard and Chen Jian said.
But then they knew that this matter was very serious, because it was the first time they had seen Chen Jian make such a big fire.
A slap slammed on the wooden table, smashing a white pottery bowl on it, and the palm of his hand was pierced with blood by the pottery shards.
Hongyu hurriedly called someone from the medical department to bandage him, and when he clamped the pottery piece outside, Chen Jian seemed to have no consciousness at all, raised his hand and scolded there, and the group of people sitting around were all shocked.
Since he became the leader, everyone has never seen him angry like this, he has always been reasonable, this kind of extremely angry appearance is not only these people, even Hongyu has never seen it.
While cleaning the wound, Hongyu quietly dragged a black-clothed guard outside and quietly asked, "What's wrong?" Why is he so angry? ”
The black-clothed guard shook his head and said, "I can't say. Ji Xia didn't ask me to tell others, so I can't tell others. ”
Hongyu gritted his teeth, but he was helpless, and when he was about to ask Jian Chen himself, he heard Jian Chen shouting: "Come in and tell everyone what happened." ”
One black-clad guard walked in, and the other two stood guard at the door.
"Something happened to the Reclamation Division. All the newly burned wheat fields on the farm were planted early. ”
The following group of people have all been croppers, and the wheat ears are a kind of symbol of Xia Cheng, which is very familiar to every old Chinese in Xia City, which is the basis for Xia Cheng to go out of the mountains and start settling down.
As soon as the black-clothed guard said this, the group of people all understood. If you plant too early and grow too fast before the overwintering period, it will lead to insufficient tillering, and the wheat seedlings will be slender and unable to overwinter at all. Even if there is a winter that does not freeze to death, it will basically be extinct the next year.
But this kind of thing has not happened in Xia Cheng, where is it worth such a big fire? Even if a village farm is out of production, it will not affect next year's life, anyway, Yucheng is now fed by Xia Cheng's workshop, so it will not starve to death.
After listening to the black-clothed guard, Jian Chen tore open the half-wrapped linen cloth on his hand, startling the woman who bandaged him.
"You are all people who have planted wheat, and even in Xia Cheng, you know the difference between the Chaoyang slope and the shady slope, and the difference between the river and the valley."
"As I said earlier, the climate here is not the same as that of Xiacheng, it is warmer than Xiacheng, and it is best to pay attention to the timing when planting wheat, and it is best to divide it into several plots and set a date for trial planting, so that it can be promoted on a large scale next year. The result? All of a sudden, thousands of people in the village community and farm have been busy for so long, all in vain! ”
Hongyu hurriedly persuaded: "Why should you be so angry? Anyway, I don't expect those village farms to be able to support the workshops in Yucheng this year. Didn't Xia Cheng also suffer from frost and early frost? Look at you, there are people who do much more wrong things than that, and I don't see you so angry. ”
The people below also nodded, a little puzzled in their hearts.
Jian Chen gritted his teeth and pointed at the black-clothed guard and said, "You talk to them, when you go to ask, what did that Manyuan tell you?" And how did you tell the group of people in the village farm? ”
Manyuan is a native of Xiacheng who is in charge of the village farm. Man, casting a net in broad daylight; Wheel, the wheel rod of the car. This is one of the first dozen surnames in Xia Cheng, and the words behind it are obviously the names he took after Xia Cheng had such a thing as a car.
This name is not unfamiliar to everyone, as an extremely smart young man in the clan who first learned to cast nets to fish in addition to the four surnames of Ji Qin, he has also done a lot of things in Xiacheng, and he is also somewhat famous in the school, and he followed Ji Song to leave Xiacheng first to go to the lower reaches of the river, and when he came back, he saw the ox cart and changed his name.
He came to Onozawa very early, and was one of the first people to be sent by Chen Jian to a barren village farm to be literate and arithmetic.
Everyone was very curious about what kind of words Manyuan said to make Jian Chen so angry.
The black-clothed guard cleared his throat and said, "He said that Ji Xia asked him to go to the village farm, and he was teaching these people to read and write and guide farming. Ji Xia once said that it is the right time to plant wheat on the autumn equinox, and now this is also something written into the textbook, Ji Xia has always been right, of course, to plant wheat at the autumn equinox. He also said the same thing to the people from the village farm, saying that this was Ji Xia's order, and that they would plant in the autumn equinox in the future, and if they didn't do so, they would oppose Ji Xia......"
Boom!
Another clay pot was slammed to the ground by Jian Chen, and he scolded: "Listen to what this is called? I also said that there are snow-capped mountains and flowers blooming under the mountains, why did he forget? ”
"When he was asked to go to the village farm to teach those people how to read and write, he was reluctant, but he couldn't resist me. Okay, didn't you Ji Xia let me go to the farm? I'll let you get nothing! I shouted your Ji Xia's name against you, see what you Ji Xia can do to me? Anyway, now that the textbook is available, is it possible that you Ji Xia is willing to tear up the textbook and say that you are wrong? Didn't you Ji Xia want those people to read and write? I'll make them think you're an idiot! When the time comes, others have something to eat, but the farm doesn't, whose fault is it? It's not your Ji Xia's fault? You said it was the right time to plant wheat at the autumn equinox! ”
After Jian Chen finished speaking angrily, he shouted: "Several villages and farms are all the same, is it the meaning of him alone?" ”
"Who is he? All these people who can say have listened? ”
"I don't think it's his problem alone, it's a demonstration for me! One by one, they thought that they had meritorious deeds and knowledge, and that they were going to be officials, and they didn't want to go to a bitter place. You told me to move forward, I shouted slogans forward, but my steps went backwards! ”
"Fortunately, it's close, fortunately it's still within thirty miles of Yucheng, fortunately, there are black-clothed guards to check it, otherwise next year, hum, this joke will be big!"
The people below lowered their heads and faces as if they were standing still, but their hearts were undulating. Many people are also a little dissatisfied with some of Jian Chen's policies, especially when they instinctively feel that something may threaten them and their juniors.
But in the face of Chen Jian, they are not easy to oppose openly, if it weren't for the fact that Chen Jian chatted with them for two days a few days ago to resolve some people's dissatisfaction, which made everyone full of hope, I am afraid that they may not do such a thing after a long time.
Several village farms, more than a dozen old Chinese people in Xia Cheng, and they are all the backbone of Xia Cheng who are knowledgeable and capable after ten years, if it is just one person's opinion, I am afraid that it will not be so unanimous.
They didn't necessarily want to oppose it, but they just used a negative way to vent their dissatisfaction in their hearts, but they didn't expect this kind of negativity to make Chen Jian so angry.
Hongyu watched Jian Chen wander around the room like a wild dog pricked by thistles, his face was hideous, some blood oozed from the linen bandage on one hand, and the other hand trembled and picked up the brush as if he was going to write something.
Afraid that Chen Jian would make some irreparable decision, Hongyu took a deep breath and walked to Chen Jianjian's side and said, "Ji Xia, the rules of Xia City, don't ask about things." Don't break this rule. It was an accident of farming, and what they thought could not condemn them. ”
Jian Chen was already angry and ready to let the black-clothed guard go directly to arrest someone, but when the words came to his lips, he was pressed back by Hongyu's words.
Hongyu said that he Ji Xia was reminding him that he had set the rules of Xia Cheng, and that Xia Cheng's habit of asking questions without asking questions was also brought by him, and he was the leader. Even if those people are dissatisfied, they are only passively opposed within the rules, and they do not dare to break the rules, and you, as the leader, cannot open this head. If you break the rules, then the rules are meaningless. (To be continued.) )
