Chapter 0094: Fishing
For the Jurchens, Zhou Qingfeng, the master, is really different from any master in the past. There are so many things about him that make him different.
"Sun Ren." Zhou Qingfeng shouted with his electric horn magic weapon, and his voice could be heard throughout the fortress construction site. This artifact had never been used again since it had been used in the nameless village of the mountains, and now it had finally returned to its proper path and was used to command hundreds of slaves, to shock their hearts, in exchange for their obedience and fear.
Under normal circumstances, hundreds of slaves are scattered across a large construction site, and it is quite troublesome to find a certain person. But now Zhou Qingfeng is standing on a higher mound of earth and looking down, and when he finds that there is a problem somewhere, he will immediately take out an electric horn and shout slaves, do you still want to be lazy? Dream on!
Zhou Qingfeng's throat was the roar of heavenly thunder, and the gods came into the world. The timid ones were scared by the yelling on the electric horn and collapsed on the ground unable to move. This huge sound was so shocking that all the slaves would subconsciously rise up a simple concept Uncle Zhou was the most powerful.
Surrender from the heart is established by the sound of commands coming from the electric horn. Especially Zhou Qingfeng also used the trick he used to color his subordinates. Since pigment was hard to come by, he had his slaves gather flowers in the mountains and weave garlands. Wreaths of various colors such as red, yellow, white, green, blue, and black were worn around the neck of each slave, and they were distinct.
All the slaves were surprised by the wreath, but the master said that they could not take it off, and no one dared to touch it. At first glance, the situation on the construction site is particularly orderly. People wearing the same garlands huddle together and do the same job. If you find that someone else is wearing a garland that is different from your own, it means that you are in the wrong place.
It is that there is an electric horn and a simple sign to form a relatively smooth management system, and the work efficiency of slaves is thus improved.
"Sun Ren, where are you? Come to me. Zhou Qingfeng's electric horn sounded again.
Sun Ren was the original guinea pig No. 1, this slave girl in her thirties was originally going to die, but she was rescued in the hands of Zhou Qingfeng. She first became the leader of the five-person group, and her orders to Zhou Qingfeng could be completed without discount. Now that he has learned more than 100 Chinese characters and speaks a little more fluently, he has become a team leader on the construction site again, busy with fifty slaves.
With relatively sufficient food, Sun Ren's weight has gained a lot, and his mental state has been restored. The most important thing is that as a female slave with an extremely low status, it is all thanks to Zhou Qingfeng's grace that she has grown from a dying woman to a slave squad leader. Maybe she didn't understand the logic, but she was extremely loyal and in awe of Zhou Qingfeng.
This slave girl even took out her eldest sister's style to take care of, spur, and urge her four younger brothers to progress and be loyal together. Zhou Qingfeng was really pleased to get this result.
Hearing the shouting of the electric horn, Sun Ren hurriedly ran to the little master, cowering and waiting for the order. Zhou Qingfeng didn't like her appearance, and said impatiently: "How can I teach you?" ”
Sun Ren, who was hunched over, could only slowly straighten his back and said with a bitter face: "Report to the chief." Sun Ren has arrived, please instruct. ”
"Be louder, didn't I give you enough food?"
The slave girl has never been loud in front of her master, she has always kept her voice low, and her voice cannot be lower than the cry of mosquitoes. But Zhou Qingfeng's requirements are really different, he actually asks the slaves below to speak to him that is, the louder the better.
Sun Ren could only be louder, and it was not until Zhou Qingfeng repeatedly asked, and even raised the whip and whipped a few times, that she shouted at the top of her voice. This unique scene made hundreds of slaves working on the construction site look sideways and were inexplicably surprised. Only the fifteen Han slaves who followed Zhou Qingfeng at the beginning held their heads high, only feeling that they were higher and more proud than the other slaves.
Hearing the qualified report, Zhou Qingfeng continued: "Chu Yingbeile sent us two hundred slaves, and there will be two hundred more tomorrow. I appoint you as the company commander of this group of people, and you go and arrange these people. Send your younger brothers to be captains of the new slaves, in groups of five, in three groups, in three rows, and in three rows, and get this done. ”
Zhou Qingfeng's hand pointed not far away, and the two hundred new slaves were crowded in a mess outside the construction site, unorganized. Chu Ying said in the morning that he would send someone to help, and he really sent someone in the afternoon. More manpower is a good thing, but it also increases the difficulty of managing the entire construction site. Zhou Qingfeng did not have enough cadres in his hands, so he could only promote a few of his close subordinates.
Seeing that so many slaves were in his own hands, Sun Ren was not the slightest bit happy. This slave girl has formed an advantage in the long-term oppression, she knows the limits of her ability very well, and is very afraid of the beating and scolding of her master, so she will never take care of things beyond her ability.
Zhou Qingfeng was very fond of Sun Ren's trait, and asked the other slaves to learn it. What he is most afraid of is that people who can't figure it out will come out and take care of things. Not to mention the delay, he was the one who wiped his ass in the end.
"Master, don't ......, chief, I can't control so many people. They won't listen to me. Sun Ren shook his head desperately in embarrassment. Chief, find someone else. ”
Without good management, crowds will only add to chaos.
"But who can I turn to?"
What Sun Ren said is not unreasonable. But if Zhou Qingfeng didn't need to put hundreds of laborers, he felt panicked. His gaze swept around, and he was fixed on the river near the fortress site. Fish jump out from time to time in the gentle current, which is very beautiful.
The city of Ekhkuren was built between three rivers, of which the Songhua River was the widest, the largest flow, and the most fish. The Jurchens made a living from fishing and hunting, using bows for hunting, and only using nets for fishing. In the eyes of the Jurchens, this has been a production tool that has been handed down for hundreds of years, and it has never changed. But the fishing efficiency of the nets is too low.
After acquiring a lumberyard outside the city as his own territory, Zhou Qingfeng began to build according to his own ideas. However, slaves' motivation to work was very low, and they lacked the ability to continue to work, both willingly and physically.
Zhou Qingfeng only has two months to prepare, he can't stand the large number of laborers under his hands working lazily all day long, but he doesn't want to whip these slaves behind him every day, because he knows that it is useless to smoke, these slaves are too poor in health, and they will die if they are too tired.
Give these people a spiritual healer?
Zhou Qingfeng didn't have this plan at all, it took several days to treat the first fifteen slaves, and the hundreds of people in front of him, when would they be cured? He now treats healing as a kind of reward, given only to those who work most diligently, or who make special contributions.
And how to improve the labor motivation of slaves? Then it's just a matter of finding a way to feed them. Zhou Qingfeng had long thought about where he could get some food quickly, and the lumber yard included the nearby river. He had already sent some slaves to the river to catch fish, but the fish in the deep mountains and old forests were so big and fat that it was inefficient to catch them with a net.
Zhou Qingfeng had a whim!
"Get the new slaves out to catch fish for me."
"Chief, we don't have any extra nets."
"Let them go down empty-handed."
"But it's hard to catch fish."
"Don't talk nonsense, do what I want."
Sun Ren couldn't figure out what he was going to do as the chief master? She could only order the two hundred or so new slaves to go to the river near the construction site. The slaves immediately complained, because fishing with empty hands was a joke, and it was strange that it could be caught.
As soon as Lei Yin shouted the loudspeaker, more than 200 new slaves almost collapsed en masse, and all of them obediently went down to the river to catch fish. The water in the river is about one meter, but it is really difficult to catch fish.
Zhou Qingfeng ordered more than two hundred slaves to form a square echelon and stand in the water in a ten-by-twenty queue, with a distance of two or three meters between each person. This controls half of the river.
Seeing that the chief master seemed to be about to do new tricks, the slaves on the construction site couldn't help but put down their work a little and looked forward to it. The bold ones even talked about it in their ears, wondering what Zhou Qingfeng was going to do?
Fishing? The fish doesn't jump into their hands on their own, so how can they be caught?
Zhou Qingfeng controlled the electric horn and asked Sun Ren to relay his orders to the fishing slave team, "I'll release a thunder into the river later, don't be afraid." After the thunder is released, the fish in the river will come out, and you can just catch them and throw them on the shore, do you understand? ”
Listen to the ghost!
All the slaves were dumbfounded, looking at Zhou Qingfeng stupidly.
Zhou Qingfeng didn't explain more, he walked a little upstream for about fifty meters, and then released a lightning strike technique into the river with full strength.
...... bang, a thick blue electric light crashed into the river.
A strong electric current rushes into the water, and immediately begins to electrolyze the water to form hydrogen and oxygen gases. The two gases diffuse violently in the water, mix them thoroughly, and explode directly under the action of electric current.
Boom bang ......!
A huge splash was blown up on the surface of the river and rose into the sky.
The splashes scattered in all directions, drenching Zhou Qingfeng on the bank of the river into a soup chicken.
The loud explosion frightened the slaves who watched the excitement. Even if Zhou Qingfeng had issued an early warning, the sound was louder than an electric horn, and the eardrums and heart and lungs of the people who shook were hurting. Many slaves were suddenly dizzy, and they were all crying for their fathers and mothers to run away.
But in the waves that kept churning on the surface of the water, one by one the fat fish also floated up, centered on the landing point of the lightning strike technique, and the floating fish soon numbered dozens or hundreds. Some of the fish were scorched black by the electricity and explosions, but most of them were in good shape, only stunned by the explosion.
Sun Ren, who was guarding the shore, reacted the fastest, and she screamed and pointed to the river and shouted fish, fish, fish. The slaves in the river were scared half to death, but they soon saw a white flower floating on the surface of the water, floating towards them, and with a slight stretch of their hands, they could catch the fish in their hands.
Everyone couldn't believe that this fish, so many fish, so many fat and big fish, they were floating like this? This is the first time that humans have been fishing for hundreds of thousands of years.
The wet Zhou Qingfeng ran out of the falling splash, looked at the stupid slave and couldn't help but get angry and shouted: "You idiots, why are you stunned, why don't you hurry up and catch fish?" These are all Lao Tzu's fish! ”
