Chapter 166

"Everyone's watching!"

After the lieutenant chief seriously pasted the official notice, he called a young man of about fourteen or fifteen years old.

This is a scholar who has studied in their workshop, and his father worked as a knife and pen clerk in the official temple.

Each time, the lieutenant asked the young man to explain the notice issued by the government to the residents.

The young man, who had not yet reached the crown and wore only a scarf on his head, walked upright, bowed to the crowd before turning to look at the bulletin board.

The young man first carefully checked the big seal in the lower right corner of the official document, and then looked at it carefully.

Everyone waited very quietly for him to finish reading, and no one urged him.

"There are three recruitment sites in the county this time." After the boy finished reading, Lang said.

When they heard that there were three recruitments, everyone cheered.

"One is the repair of the city wall of the southern city, and there are 10 people in the middle of the room this time."

"One is the main road in the city, and the quota in the middle school is also 10 people."

Hearing that there were only twenty places in the middle, there was a sigh from the crowd.

Although there are not many of them, these 20 places are far from enough.

Not to mention, the lieutenant chief and the husband have to keep two or three for their own sons and nephews.

"And what about the third?"

"yes, what about the third one? Jiro, let's talk about the third one. ”

The neighbors gathered here were all neighbors, who were also very familiar with the young man, and urged one after another.

"This is the third one." The young man who was called Erlang deliberately sold a pass, "The third one has no limit on the number of people." ”

Hearing this, everyone began to discuss.

"No limit, that is, we can all go?" A dark and thin man said excitedly, he is not a capable person, and he has no good relationship with good people, and he has never grabbed a job to recruit workers.

Although the old and young in the family can rely on him in the pottery workshop, his wife can barely survive by dismantling and washing for others, but when he sees his neighbors participating in the fundraising and bringing back rice and grain, he is still extremely envious.

I deliberately squeezed to the front today, just to grab a place and let the old mother and children in the family have a dry meal.

"Yes!" The young man nodded and said, "Not only can you go, but you can also increase the number of meals a day." ”

"Really?" The crowd was boiling again, and the noise was far louder than before.

After several previous times, people may not be aware of it, but they have already paid their wages on time because of the recruitment, and they no longer question the belief in the official documents posted on this bulletin board.

The credibility of the government has been initially established.

Even the official document posted at the same time that infant drowning is regarded as homicide and the same crime is remembered by people.

What's more, a few days ago, the village husbands and wives who lost their heads on the streets of the downtown area, obviously, the government really does what it says.

"Seriously!" The boy affirmed, "And in addition to the two extra meals, there is also accommodation." ”

Lodging?

Mentioning this, I finally realized that something was wrong, "Where do you need accommodation?" Oh, Erlang, you don't want to learn from the half-spoken temperament of the chief, let's finish it all at once! ”

"That's right!"

This man's words won the hearts of others, and many people in the crowd began to complain.

Li Chang likes to talk on weekdays and leave a section, asking people to guess, what is wrong with this.

The young man had a look on his face, he didn't realize when he had learned such a problem, and apologized to the people in the village, causing the long beard to stare at and scold.

"The place where the work was recruited is thirty miles away in Luronse." The young man stopped talking and panted, "The county recruited workers to build and rebuild the Lulong Fortress to resist the Hu people going south. ”

Hearing that it was the construction of Lulong Fortress, the field was suddenly quiet.

After a long time, it was still the black and thin man's obsession with asking the old lady to have a dry meal prevailed, and he asked again: "Erlang, is it really a paid recruiter, not a farmer?" ”

Traditionally, the construction of passes and post roads has been directly drawn from the people.

Even if it is occasionally said to be a recruitment, how many people can really get paid back in the end? How many people will come back alive?

Five or six out of ten will die of exhaustion under the urging of the whip of the overseer and the sword of the army.

Since the Violent Qin, it has been like this.

Therefore, even though the Lulong County Government has initially established credibility, no one dares to speak out at this time.

Seeing this, the boy took a step forward, and his father, who worked in the government office, had a better understanding of the intent and purpose of the decree.

He had the intention of sending his son to the government as an official, and his father would interpret the county decree for him when he was resting.

Especially when the new county monarch arrived, his father visibly became busy, but when Xiu Mu returned home, he was also happy.

The arrears in the past had already been repaid once when the county magistrate first took office, and I thought that the next time would not be known until later.

Unexpectedly, a few days ago, it was all reissued at once.

When his father came back with rice grains, it was rare for the young man to see his mother let go of the frowning brow and show a relaxed smile.

Therefore, the teenager should consciously explain and analyze one or two for everyone and help the county government.

"Uncles and brothers, please listen to me."

The young man cleared his throat, "Who of you hasn't suffered from the Hu people's borders and plundering?" Do you have any objections to the construction of the pass? ”

Before everyone could answer, he asked, "If the county recruits people to work as laborers, who would dare to refuse?" ”

"Since you can be recruited, what is the point of the county coaxing you?"

Everyone present was stunned, yes, since the government can be recruited, why bother?

"Then, the remuneration must be true!" The thin black man muttered to himself, "Can you really take care of the rice?" Still in control? ”

"It must be true." The young man turned around and pointed to the big seal on the official document, "The big seal of the county order is here." ”

"The official document also said that if you want to go to Lulong, you can directly get a talisman in Lizhong."

"Based on Fu Xin, gather in front of the four city gates every day, and there are special officials and troops to guide and protect you to Lulong."

"If you want to come back, there will also be troops in Lulong to protect the return to the city."

"And halfway, you can also eat and rest for free at the pavilion with the letter of the rune."

The young man pointed to the official document and read it one by one.

In the past, the official documents were obscure, but after the new county monarch took office, Xu was because of the background and preferences of the martial artists, and even the official documents became very straightforward and easy to understand.

However, the boy did not feel that there was anything wrong with the official document because it was straightforward, and he felt that such an official document was better than his father's disapproval.

It can make the peddlers, pawns, peasants, and common people better understand the decree, and it is not easy to be misled by the person who reads the decree.

After the young man finished reading the words word by word, and then looked at the expressions of the people, he saw that the expressions of several people showed wavering expressions, especially the black and thin man who worked as a casual worker in the pottery workshop was the most obvious.

The young man called his name: "Uncle Yang, why don't you give it a try for everyone." ”

The black and thin man was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the people around him looking over, he waved his hand to refuse.

"That's right, Lao Yang, didn't you say that you must participate in the fundraiser this time?"

"Yes, yes, Lao Yang, you will give it a try for everyone, and if it is true, you will come back with a word." As for what if it is false, there is no mention of it.

This black and thin man is usually just one of the people in the village, when has he received such attention, looking at the people around him one by one, Lao Yang screamed, and he only felt a rush of momentum surging into his chest.

"Good! I'll go and give it a try for everyone! The thin black man patted his chest.

When the young man who read the official document saw this, a smile appeared on his face.
