Chapter 177: Initiation (Subscription Requested)
The first batch of personnel from the iron mine soon came, and they were found from the main headquarters of the Tongluo Department, and the first batch was only 300 people. The 300 people who came with them were Amudu, because many of these Turks did not know Chinese, and although they were studying hard, it was not something that could be learned in a short period of time.
"Isn't it hard to find people here?" The tools came with these miners, and when they started mining ore under the command of Lu Feng, Huo Gang found Amudu and asked.
"How come, chief, everyone is willing to come over, but the city lord of Yang said that there are not so many people here for the time being, and the felt tents, food and other materials need to be transported gradually, so the first batch of people is only 300 people." Amudu said respectfully.
"I see." Huo Gang was silent for a moment, his prestige was much higher than he imagined.
"I'll take care of the rest of the work here, but there's one thing you have to remember." Huo Gang thought for a while and said.
"Chief, please command." Amudu's face immediately turned pale.
"Human life is the most critical, people are more important than anything else, although the ore output is also important, but the ore output is nothing compared to human life, in addition, I will let people arrange the best for them to eat, and they will be supplemented with meat every once in a while, and these foods cannot be deducted." Huo Gang said seriously. "These standards, I will have people write official documents and tell everyone who works here that if anyone reports to me that you have withheld their food, I will cut off your head."
Amudu almost knelt down for Huo Gang, not because of fear, but because of excitement, although Amudu himself is also a nobleman, they were not Turkic people before Luo Bu, and they were no different from Luo Bu in the eyes of the Turkic Ashina clan!
When did those Turkic nobles ever care about the life and death of ordinary herdsmen?! If the Turkic countries have the opportunity to dig iron ore and smelt steel on a large scale, they definitely don't care about the lives of these ordinary herdsmen, and dig the ore to the maximum!
But the first thing Huo Gang explained was to let him guarantee everyone's lives, and sure enough, the leader was fraternal, and he couldn't stand the continuous suffering of the Turks, so he personally incarnated to save them.
"Chief, I know, I will never withhold anyone's food, even if I don't eat, I will let them eat, and I will ensure the safety of everyone's lives." Amudu patted his chest and said seriously.
"Very good, I will send two Langzhong here, in addition, in the industrial city will also mine limestone mines later, limestone mines and iron ore mining people, in batches, rotate once a month, and you can rest for 10 days in three months." Huo Gang said.
"Yes!"
The reason for the rotation, firstly, is because the Turks who come here are all strong laborers, and their families must be near the Huoci River, which is closer to their families, and secondly, the Huoci River has spiritual spring water, which can be drunk every day to enhance the human body, make them stronger, and not easy to get sick.
If you work here for a long time, if you can't drink the spiritual spring water for a long time, you will definitely get sick.
So rotation is the best way, anyway, for now, Huo Gang's labor is definitely enough for the time being, don't worry about not enough people.
However, in the later stage, it is estimated that there will be at least thousands, or even tens of thousands of people mining ore in this iron mine, and the labor will be enough to choke at that time.
The standard of food is the same as in the coal mines, but the conditions here are more difficult, so every miner here has a piece of meat in their soup. The reason why Huo Gang dared to give them meat was because Wu Ping and their side had some effects on the spiritual spring water, and they could be regarded as having research results.
It can't be said that the research is that Huo Gang secretly told Wu Ping to make observations, mainly because of these promoting effects on cattle and sheep.
Just like those war horses, the war horses that drank a hundred days of spiritual spring water could almost catch up with the war horses that Huo Zheng and the others were riding, and then the spiritual spring water basically lost its effect, and it should be said that it reached the limit of horses.
No matter how defying the sky, it is impossible for the spiritual spring water to break through the limits of animals.
For the sheep, the effect of this spiritual spring water can make the sheep grow faster, according to Wu Ping, their remaining lambs for one month, almost equivalent to the progress of the Turkic people for three or four months.
Huo Gang and the others had just taken the batch of sheep captured by the Bormu Ministry, but the lambs that had been in cubs for a few days already looked like a big sheep in the past three months.
This is almost the same as the fattening sheep of later generations, but in order to achieve such a result, they must be given alfalfa grass.
Moreover, the ewes who have drunk the Lingquan water seem to be healthier and have easier calves, and the ewes who have drunk the lingquan water have not yet had a dead lamb, which means that under the same number of sheep, Huo Gang's flock is at least three or four times more than three or four times that of the Turks.
Therefore, Huo Gang's meat will definitely not be lacking, especially now that Huo Gang has foreign food supplements, and the number of sheep that needs to be killed is reduced, the number of sheep of these ordinary herdsmen will definitely expand.
It is estimated that the first wave will appear by this autumn, but unfortunately for now, the place where they are located is not suitable for pigs for the time being.
Like Jiang Laoqi and others, when they had dinner at night, these Turks didn't expect that they would eat so well! These Turks are ordinary herdsmen, they could not have eaten enough before, now not to mention full, there is even meat to eat! And three meals a day!
Although the breakfast will be slightly worse, when have they eaten three meals?!
Especially when Huo Zheng told them Huo Gang's orders, telling them that in the future, their food would only be higher than this, not worse than this, if anyone dared to withhold the food, they would tell Huo Gang directly, and when the leader would make the decision for them, these pious Turks knelt down directly on the spot, even if they couldn't stop it.
"See?" Looking at the kneeling Turks from a distance, Huo Gang asked Amudu.
"See." Amudu nodded honestly.
"They kneel to me today, but they dare to kneel to me, and if you dare to detain them in the future, they will dare to stand up and use a steel knife against you, so although you have the responsibility of management, but in the same way, you must be worthy of your responsibility and my trust in you." Huo Gang said in a deep voice.
"Rest assured, Chief! If I disobey the leader's account, I will judge myself in front of the leader!" Amudu said in a deep voice.
"Very good, with your words, I will rest assured, I will leave here tomorrow, and the entire iron mine will be handed over to you, in addition, you have to find a few henchmen to build a separate residence away from the crowd, I will let some golden eagles live here, and in the future, we will rely on these golden eagles and the falcons of the Eagle Department to deliver news."
"Yes." Amudu immediately bowed his hand.
Huo Gang patted Amudu on the shoulder, then turned around and left here.
Looking at Huo Gang's distant back, the expression on Amudu's face, who didn't know what to think, was a little tangled, and after a long time, he whispered with some emotion: "Father, it's not that I don't avenge you, but the leader...... Maybe it's really the future of our relationship with Rabu, and if Father, you know that the leader is such a person, maybe you won't fight him. ”
Amudu's voice was very slight, only he could hear it, and Huo Gang naturally couldn't hear it.
The next morning, after Huo Gang had been fed with water, he deliberately explained to the family in the golden eagle that they would live in a small forest about 1,000 meters away from the mining area.
Huo Gang fed the spiritual spring water here, but Huo Gang didn't know if it could understand it, Huo Gang even said that he gave it a gesture anyway.
If it can understand, it should gradually make a nest here, as for whether it can understand or not, Huo Gang has no time to pay attention to this now.
The iron mine is the same as the coal mine, although the miners here are Turkic, but Huo Gang still uses food stamps, although the people in the coal mine are Han, but they are illiterate, no different from the Turks.
But in just a few days, the coal miners on the other side of the coal mine could recognize all the numbers, even the food stamps, the two words grain stamps, and yuan.
These all show a problem, when it comes to their survival, they will learn quickly, and just a few words, they learn every day, and they can quickly memorize them, so the iron mine side also adopts the same policy.
For the time being, these people's salaries are the same as those in the coal mines, but the only difference with the iron mines is that the Turks here can only choose to save these food stamps as salaries, because there is no exchange point and no place to spend money.
When they reach the shift change period a month later, they will have the opportunity to redeem it.
As soon as Huo returned to the vicinity of the Industrial City, before he saw Amato, he noticed that except for the gathering point near the valley where the Black Mountain thieves were originally located, which was chosen as the location of Black Mountain City, the other gathering points that were built haphazardly had gradually begun to dissolve.
These gathering points were well planned and stationed about a kilometer or so near the Huozhi River.
And in the land that has been measured in the vicinity, there are already more than a dozen flocks of sheep grazing in different pastures.
In some of these lands, some herdsmen even use tools to build up the ridges with soil according to the rectangle of the size of one acre of land, so that the fields are more intuitive and distinct.
As for who the fields belong to, don't worry about that, as long as you allocate them to them, they will always have a way to remember.
