Liu Ponu has recently lived a fairy-like life again, and the only difference from before is that he began to slowly wander around the Zhuangzi.

As the farming season comes to an end, the next thing to build a house is on the agenda.

The bricks and tiles were almost enough to burn, but the lack of cement was a headache for him.

Wooden piles and rammed earth structures are barely usable, but the service life is a big problem, and once the roof is used with tiles, the weight will increase a lot, and once it collapses, it will directly kill people.

Liu Ponu asked a lot of solutions, the clay is fried, and glutinous rice water is used to revitalize the soil, which can ensure stickiness, but the price is too high.

With Liu Ponu's small family background, even if he hollows out, he can't build dozens of houses.

Therefore, recently, Liu Ponu has been pondering whether to let Liu Qu talk to the bad old man about coming over and making some money for himself?

"Brother Nu ......"

"What's wrong?" Liu Ponu's thoughts were interrupted by the little mule, and he turned to look at the sullen little mule, and wondered.

"There's a problem in the mine...... the little mule bowed his head with a tangled face.

Although he has no education, he has never read a book, and he does not know how to read.

But the little mule knows very well that this is the opportunity that Liu Ponu gave himself, as long as he does this well, does he need to say more later?

The little mule has been full of enthusiasm since he came here, and those domestic servants who didn't know how to farm have basically become experts in farming under the training of the little mule.

And the little mule also learned from Liu Ponu in a good way, and always gave them some principles from time to time.

Although I don't know whether some of the principles are right or not, anyway, as long as the result is right, the intermediate process makes people feel reasonable.

Teaching people to farm gradually gave the little mule confidence, and when he first went to the mine, the little mule also felt that it should not be difficult, and the initial feeling was indeed like this.

But soon, the problem appeared, a very difficult problem, and the little mule tried his best to deal with it but could not deal with it, but it was getting worse and worse......

"Don't rush, speak slowly!" Liu Ponu smiled slightly and calmly patted the little mule's shoulder.

"Brother Nu, this thing is really a bit evil......"

Liu Ponu's relief did not make the little mule feel better, and the depressed expression on his face became much more solemn.

"At first, the king had already negotiated with the owners of those lands, and they were willing to give up the cultivated land, so the king began to let people prepare for construction, but when the people came, they were stopped by a group of displaced people, who said that they would not let us work......"

"Outcasts?" Liu Ponu frowned slightly.

"Last year, the displaced people who were affected by the disaster in Hedong, at that time, the imperial court didn't let some of the displaced people share with each other, but this Zhuangzi responded to the call of the imperial court and accepted a lot of displaced people to come over to help with the work, and the Zhuangzi is now built very beautifully!"

"They also said that they had already discussed with the owners of the land, and that they would be responsible for this year's farming, and that the owners of the land would give them some food to return to their hometowns before the spring of next year, and that if they were unwilling to leave, they could also live here, and let them do whatever they had in the future."

"As a result, we want to enclose the land, and the owners of the land have no land to cultivate, so we have to send them away, and now the homeless people have stopped doing it, and they have begun to make trouble......" said the little mule Balabala, who had detailed the course of events.

"Did you tell them to work in the mines?" Liu Ponu asked, his intuition telling him that it wasn't that simple.

"Said it!" The little mule nodded violently, and he didn't need Liu Ponu to continue to ask, he knew what to say next, so he continued: "I told them to take the household as a unit, and give one money for every ten catties of iron ore mining completed, and the wages will be settled on the same day, and the mine will also take care of food and housing, and when they feel that they have saved enough money, they can leave at any time, even if they don't want to leave, they can continue to stay here, and if they want to settle down, we can also help them arrange!" ”

"How many are there?" Liu Ponu frowned, there is definitely something wrong with this matter, and there is no need to even doubt it.

"There are three or four hundred of them......

"Let's take a rest first, let's go over early tomorrow morning!"

"Brother Nu, bring the servants with you, those people have all fought, a village of more than 1,000 people can support three or four hundred homeless people, I always feel that there is a problem in that village!" The little mule hurriedly reminded.

"Well, you can arrange this!" Liu Ponu nodded.

Wang Liu didn't say how the little mules talked to the landlords, and it is estimated that the little mules themselves did not know.

But the landlords had already agreed, but the victims they took in were unwilling.

As long as these homeless people can ensure that they do not starve to death, most of them will keep a low profile wherever they go and will never take the initiative to cause trouble.

Jump out and go against the government?

To say that there is no one behind this, Liu Ponu absolutely does not believe it.

As for that village, it's definitely problematic as well.

Let's not talk about whether a village of more than 1,000 people can support 3 or 400 displaced people, let's just say that in recent years, which farm family has been so extravagant that it can hire people to farm?

Normal people's thinking shouldn't be that when there is work, I will take care of you to eat, and you can go wherever you want to go when the work is done?

Even the great good people would not raise so many people for a year for no reason, unless they have other ulterior motives......

The matter of the iron mine has been delayed for more than half a month, and now it has been delayed for so long.

Although it will not necessarily affect next year's spring ploughing, but the continuous delay in the construction period, the number of spring ploughing next year will definitely be affected.

For Liu Ponu, it doesn't matter, there is not much difference between throwing hundreds or thousands of more planes and investing so much less.

Quyuan plough is just needed, which is nothing more than postponing the order that should have been completed this year to next year.

But the real impact is the output, Liu Ponu feels that if he doesn't do it, he won't say it, once he does it, he must come up with enough results to shut up in the first year, and the more the emperor is shocked, the better, so that it is more conducive to the development of his plan.

"Uncle Liu, is there still a servant in the old man's house? This kind of thing? Liu Ponu walked to the side and asked, pointing to the maid who was working in a hurry.

"Yes!" Liu Qu was in a trance, and then nodded.

"Is it much?"

"It's ...... more"

"It seems that the emperor wants to kill the bad old man for a long time, and there are so many eyeliners around him, I'm really afraid that one day he won't even know how to die......" Liu Ponu also felt speechless for a while.

This bad old man usually looks quite shrewd, why can't he see it in this matter?

Or is this what the emperor is by nature?

The more you like someone, the more you like to put eyeliner in his house?

Or is it the kind of eyeliner that has been on the battlefield and fought?

Liu Qu looked at Liu Ponu with an embarrassed and tangled face, we don't know if the emperor wants to kill him, but there must be many people who want to kill you......

However, Liu Ponu didn't have the heart to care about Liu Qu's inner thoughts, he felt that it was a good father and son, although it was a plastic feeling, but if he could help, he should help!

"In this way, you can go and tell the bad old man about my going to the mine tomorrow, and say that I feel that there is a problem over there, and ask him to send as many servants as there are at home, and remember to let them take this guy ......"
