Chapter 118: Jiading
Back in the rented yard, a group of children were eating porridge with bowls, and when they saw Wang Zhi coming back, they put down the bowls in their hands and looked at him.
Wang Zhi walked to the steps in front of the main house, stood on a high place and announced to everyone: "In the future, you will be my people, you can call me teacher, I have always been a person with clear rewards and punishments, as long as you listen to me, you can eat enough every day." ”
"Really?" They couldn't believe that in these years, even if they were servants in large households, they would not be able to eat enough every day.
"Of course, not only can you eat enough, but you can also have meat."
"Got meat?" As soon as they heard this, all the children showed a yearning look on their faces, and they fell into the hands of human traffickers, and they couldn't eat enough coarse grains and wild vegetables on weekdays, let alone eat meat.
"In a few days, when your stomach is well recuperated, I will get you meat to eat."
After receiving Wang Zhi's promise, an older child asked, "Were the adults sent by the Buddha?" ”
In their eyes, such a kind-hearted person could only be sent by the Buddha.
"No, in the future, I am not allowed to believe in Buddhism or God, understand?" Wang Zhi warned that he would not be able to take the army to another world to slaughter gods in the future, so naturally he could not let them have reverence for gods and Buddhas.
No one answered, they were too numb.
It's cold, and Wang Zhi, who doesn't like to talk too much, doesn't want to say anything more, "Forget it, you guys eat porridge first." ”
Then he opened the door of the space and called out Zhao Lingyun and the seven children inside. He said to the seven children, "Take a bowl and eat porridge." ”
"How did you buy so many people?" Seeing so many people in the courtyard, Zhao Lingyun walked to Wang Zhi's side and said, "This courtyard can't accommodate so many people. ”
"I've already asked the tooth people to go outside the city to inquire about the big mansion, and there are many of them, I'm too few!"
The one hundred and forty people bought by Wang Zhi, only thirty or forty people are above one meter four, that is to say, only these people will be able to use it at present, and the rest are too young, at least they have to raise them for a few years, which is to prepare for the future, these thirty or forty people, trained to be a squad leader, lead nine people, and expand with all their strength to more than 300 people in a battalion, and it is barely enough to control a county town.
Although the younger ones are more malleable, they are still too young to solve the urgent task, so they still have to get some adults who can be sent to lead the troops immediately after training, and the next time you buy someone, you should raise the age to twenty years old! Thinking like this, Wang Zhi took out some buckets and towels again, and said to Zhao Lingyun: "After they finish eating porridge, you will arrange for them to take a bath, Lilia will stay here to protect you, and I will go back and buy some clothes first." ”
Wang Zhi had only bought a few dozen sets of clothes before, and there were one hundred and fifty people here, which was not enough at all.
Opening the space door and returning to the main world, Wang Zhicai remembered that it was the middle of the night in the main world, and where were there still clothes sellers, so he returned to the ninth world.
"Why are you back again?" Seeing that Wang Zhi came back so soon, Zhao Lingyun was a little strange.
"It's the middle of the night in the Overworld, and I'll go buy clothes tomorrow."
After saying that, Wang Zhi took out a large plastic bucket and put it upside down as a table, took a mazha and sat in the back, took out a pen and paper, and prepared to register them later.
A large pot of porridge was distributed to more than 100 people, each of whom did not have half a bowl, and it was quickly finished, Wang Zhi asked them to put the bowl aside, let Zhao Lingyun continue to cook the porridge, and then asked them to come over for questioning - at first he said that they should come over to register, but they did not understand the meaning of registration.
One by one, they were called over for questioning, but there was no situation where Wang Zhi imagined them rushing up, and there was no chance for them to learn to line up.
In this registration, the content of the inquiry is very simple, that is, the name, age and why it fell into the hands of the traffickers, and after the questioning, the height is measured with a tape measure. Registering this information, in addition to making statistics, is also to find out the available talents among these children, as for how to find them, it is too simple, to see which child has a clear narrative and speaks more organized, then he can be regarded as a talent.
But as a result, there are only two of the more than 100 children of such talents, that is, the pair of sisters and brothers, the elder sister is called Fan Qiuzhi, fifteen years old, and the younger brother is called Fan Qiuming, thirteen years old.
Among Wang Zhimai's more than 100 children, their sister and brother have the best backgrounds. The other children are all ordinary peasant families, basically the family can't support the family and is sold by their parents or sold by relatives after the death of their parents, but this pair of siblings is different, their father is a judge of Hejian Prefecture, offended people and was imprisoned, and then the family was exiled, and the family was sold.
Changhe County Cheng and their father are old friends, remembering the past kindness, they bought their sister and brother as their own and raised them at home, and planned to marry Fan Qiuzhi to his son, but some time ago, County Cheng suddenly fell ill and died, and Mrs. County Cheng was dissatisfied with her son's marriage with Fan Qiuzhi, and no one in the family suppressed her as soon as County Cheng died, so she casually found a reason to sell their sister and brother, and re-found a local family marriage for her son.
In addition to the two sisters and brothers, Wang Zhi also found that the children he bought were too young, only thirty-two were over the age of fourteen, and the rest were under the age of fourteen.
In fact, thinking about it, Wang Zhi also thinks that this data is quite reasonable, in ancient times, fourteen or fifteen-year-old children were the labor force of the family, and they could work for the family.
But in this way, Wang Zhi's idea of buying some sixteen or seventeen-year-old men to form an army may be in vain, and this is not a year of famine, people of this age can already work to support themselves, and they will not be left to the point of selling themselves at all.
"Forget it, let's think about this question later!"
When encountering problems that are not urgent, Wang Zhi has always been accustomed to putting them aside and going to business first.
Fourteen-year-olds were singled out, and then the women were eliminated, and there were less than twenty left, and a few more young but tall enough were found, and thirty-two were gathered, and they announced, "You will be my family from now on, do you have any objection?" ”
These children had just been bought back by Wang Zhi, so naturally they didn't dare to have any objections and didn't speak.
"Follow me to the backyard."
Taking them to the backyard, Wang Zhi announced: "There are a total of thirty-two of you, and now you are divided into four teams, each team has a captain, Zhao Dawa, Fan Qiuming and Chen Ping are the captains, and there is still one missing, which of you wants to be the captain?" ”
Chen Ping was the one who carried the dead body with Fan Qiuming before.
Hearing that there was an opportunity to become an official, many teenagers immediately jumped forward and shouted: "My lord, I want to be the captain." ”
"Call me Teacher from now on."
There were too many people who responded, and Wang Zhi couldn't tell which ones they were, so he said: "Those who want to be captains stand up." ”
A total of five teenagers came out of the crowd, their heads held high, trying to show their best side.
"The five of you stand in a row, a foot apart."
Hearing this, the five teenagers immediately moved and quickly stood in a row, each only a foot apart, looking relatively neat.
"One step forward who can write, even one."
Only a teenager took a step forward, and Wang Zhi asked him, "What will you write?" ”
"Back to the adults, the little ones can only write their own names."
"Write it to me on the ground."
Hearing this, the boy immediately squatted down and wrote his name on the ground with his fingers.
"Ding Yang, you are also the captain, now each of you captains choose seven people to be their own team members, before I come back, put the team members in a neat row, stand at the back, which team is neatly lined up, there will be meat to eat at night."
Hearing that there was meat to eat, the teenagers immediately came to the scene, and the team members chose the captain and the captain picked the team members, and it became lively for a while.
At this time, Wang Zhi returned to the front yard, called thirteen girls over the age of fourteen to his side, and asked them, "Which of you can cook, raise your hands." ”
Except for Fan Qiuzhi, the rest all raised their hands high.
"You can put your hands down." The girls put their hands down with their brushes, and Wang Zhi asked again, "Which of you can sew clothes?" ”
This time they all raised their hands.
"You go and wash the dishes first, and then you will be responsible for cooking and taking care of those younger than you!"
After arranging the girls, Wang Zhi took out the small blackboard and asked Zhao Lingyun to teach the remaining idle children first. Then I went back to the backyard and saw that the four teams were standing quite neatly, although they were a little loose, but they already had the level of primary school students doing gymnastics.
Walking to the front of the four teams, Wang Zhi announced to them who were full of anticipation: "Your queue is quite neat, and you can eat meat at night." ”
Hearing this, everyone's faces showed joyful expressions.
However, Wang Zhi, who was standing on the stairs, suddenly became serious: "Give me a straight waist, whoever stands well can eat an extra piece of meat at night......"
