Chapter Ninety-Four: Inspection

Since Xu Wenshan's speech, the ordinary villagers of Fengshi Village have been extremely enthusiastic about Xu Wenshan. There were also many civilians who invited Xu Wenshan's army to live in, and Xu Wenshan repeatedly emphasized that his troops did not sleep on the side of the road and did not sleep in private houses, and many civilians sighed.

Just take a look at these civilians' homes, there is no money to spare, and there are no beautiful women, so naturally let the soldiers live in. However, even so, in order to prevent the army from being corrupted, Xu Wenshan still garrisoned the old building of Bailongtang.

At the same time, the original forces of the White Dragon Hall were shattered by Xu Wenshan, and their morale was extremely low. Only one person stands out from the crowd.

"Little General, this is our White Dragon Hall's martial arts arena, they rely on this to practice martial arts, and then go to oppress the people, why aren't you interested? Let's go back and tear it down, you see over here, this is our death row, this is their ...... A tool for internal repression. ”

On the second day, Xu Wenshan inspected the entire Fengshi Village, after all, he was not very familiar with the road, so he invited two guides, one was a local civilian, named Zhang Aniu, and the other was Qian Dabin, who was chattering endlessly.

After Qian Dabin was caught, Xu Wenshan thought that he was the management of Bailongtang, and he wanted to cut him with a knife, but later found out that this guy was so mixed that not many people in the gang knew him, and the villagers didn't know him, and his sense of existence was too thin, and he didn't look like management. Later, I learned that he had studied and had taken the imperial examination—although he didn't pass the exam, he didn't kill him.

After staying in this ravine for a long time, Xu Wenshan's standard for talents has been lowered to "being able to read".

It's okay if he doesn't kill, he actually came over very actively, got into a relationship with Xu Wenshan, and used Xu Wenshan's words to teach others one by one.

"Little general, listen to me, the little one deeply feels that what he did in the past is wrong, and in the future, the little one is willing to follow the little general, fight the horse for a lifetime, and calm the world......"

Xu Wenshan was so angry and funny, he really couldn't say anything, Zhang Aniu next to him couldn't stand it anymore, and scolded: "You villain, you can say some slanderous words and demagoguery, Young Master Xu is kind-hearted, is he the kind of greedy person you think?" ”

Xu Wenshan said: "Don't make any noise, take me to see the granary first." ”

The granary is a very important building in the development of the settlement. Because how big the granary is, how strong the ability to resist disasters is.

Don't think that the granary is just a building for old grain. The location and construction standards of the granary are higher than those of other buildings. In terms of fire prevention, anti-theft, and rodent and insect prevention, the construction of granaries is very knowledgeable.

The most famous granary in ancient China was the Luokou warehouse in the Sui and Tang dynasties. It was because of the defeat of Luokoucang that the Wagang army took advantage of the situation and poured the first piece of soil on the head of the Sui Dynasty.

Due to the long-term shortage of grain in Luhegou, there is no granary. However, Fengshi Village gave Xu Wenshan a big surprise on the granary.

The location of the granary in Fengshi Village is quite good, close to the water source, backed by high mountains, impeccable in terms of anti-theft and fire prevention, and the layout of the warehouse is also very clean and refreshing, and the practicality is very high.

Xu Wenshan pointed to the granary and said, "Who is in charge of repairing this warehouse?" ”

Originally, he just asked hopelessly, but he didn't expect Qian Dabin to immediately say: "It was presided over by Taigong Wei, and his son repaired it with some villagers." ”

Xu Wenshan nodded, clapped his hands, and asked Lei Laohu to count the soldiers and go to the warehouse to carry grain statistics.

According to this calculation, there are more than 300 loads of grain in the granary, which is enough to solve the urgent need of Luhegou's current shortage of grain.

After looking at the granary, Xu Wenshan asked the guide to lead him to see the cell.

The screening work has been completely completed, and the remnants of Bailongtang are imprisoned in the cell, including not only thugs, but also some people doing chores, a total of more than 120 people.

Fengshi Village, even the civilians and Bailongtang together, is only about 300 people, not as many as Luhegou (note: Luhegou has 200 households, not 200 people), but there are more than 300 loads of grain, more than 10 times the grain in Luhegou.

Xu Wenshan now knows why the salt and iron monopoly system was generally implemented in ancient China.

The crowd continued to inspect, and next, Xu Wenshan visited the salt factory in Fengshi Village.

The salt in Fengshi Village, like most places in ancient China, is derived from brine. Fengshi Village is a basin soaked in saline, with brine exposed on the surface, and the salt factory in Fengshi Village uses frying brine to make salt, which is more expensive.

Seeing this scene in the salt factory, Xu Wenshan couldn't help frowning.

Qian Dabin keenly captured Xu Wenshan's micro-expression, and said, "Little general, what's wrong?" ”

Xu Wenshan said: "Who of you here is responsible for controlling the salt?" ”

Qian Dabin immediately said: "The control of salt workers has been eliminated by the little general, and the specific work of salt production is managed by Master Wei." ”

"Master Wei? What does it have to do with that Wei Taigong you are talking about? ”

"Master Wei is the fourth son of Taigong Wei."

Xu Wenshan nodded and said, "Then it just so happens that who will help me call Taigong Wei and his son over?" ”

Soon someone helped to call Mrs. Wei over, and called his whole family over.

Taigong Wei was an old man of forty or fifty years old, with five or six sons, plus a girl, and came over with a mighty smile.

Xu Wenshan sweated, he just wanted to call two people over, but he didn't expect that his words would be so effective now.

"Taigong Wei, I won't say much gossip, I heard that the granary was built by your old man?" Xu Wenshan gets straight to the point.

Mrs. Wei grinned and said, "How many years ago was that...... What, Xu Gongzi, do you want to be a granary? ”

Xu Wenshan tilted his head and said with a smile: "Sort of, but it's a little bigger than the granary project." By the way, is your son in charge of this salt-making process? ”

Wei Laosi stood up and said, "I'm in charge, what's wrong?" ”

It may be Xu Wenshan's delusion, he always feels that this Wei Laosi is a little hostile to him.

"I've heard there's a better way to make salt, I wonder if you're interested?"

Wei Laosi's eyes rolled, looked at him suspiciously for a while, and asked, "What way?" ”
