The reason why Li Zicheng drooled greedily was because he saw a large number of high-quality young people.

They are all young men with murderous power!

The value is much higher than that of the old and weak women and children, and they can fight and run, and they will never become a burdensome young man.

The most central and valuable component of the peasant insurrectionary army.

Li Zicheng, uh, Li Yecheng actually saw tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands here, and was undergoing hard labor, and he may be very dissatisfied in his heart, it is a pile of dry firewood that can almost be ignited by a spark.

That's how his Mars came.

Thinking of this, Li Zicheng couldn't help but rejoice that he ended his days of hiding in Tibet in the middle of the mountains and making a living by hunting, and made the right decision, that is, to change his face, as an ordinary person, mixed into the ranks of recruited workers, and finally saw this golden opportunity.

It's just a newcomer, though.

Li Zicheng did not dare to act rashly, but was very low-key, hiding his joy in his heart.

Gongxian West Section Project, after arriving at the destination of this trip.

After eating a nutritious and delicious stomach porridge.

That night, Li Zicheng called a few old brothers over, found a remote and uninhabited place, and began to sneakily plot big things.

"Big brother, treasure land, this is a treasure land!"

Hardcore brother Liu Zongmin, a man with a rough and dark appearance and a full beard, because he was a skilled blacksmith, he was powerful, and his gong-like voice was very loud, and he couldn't hold back his excitement and said: "It's done, we're going to send it soon!" ”

"Shhh

Gao Yigong next to him hurriedly made a silent gesture: "Be cautious, don't be too loud." ”

Liu Zongmin hurriedly covered his mouth, but the excitement on his face was still difficult to hide.

"Big brother, it's really a good idea to come out of the mountains, but I didn't expect such a big change outside, Xujiazhuang actually organized so many young people to build roads, and they were so careless, all young people want to take the initiative to give us a good opportunity." The nimble Tami-su touched his chin and said.

"There is a great drought in Henan, and all the people who build this road are hungry refugees, and they must hate and hate the imperial court and government to the extreme, as long as we pull together a little fan, hehe, at least 100,000 young people can be pulled up!" Liu Fangliang's eyes were full of fine light.

And everyone is looking forward to a bright future, and even began to discuss the specific time of the incident.

Is it better to start up in a month, or two or three months later?

"Let's settle down first, contact more people privately, and once the time is ripe and sure, it's not too late to act."

Li Zicheng wanted to start an incident tonight, but he has always been cautious and likes to plan before acting, just like the cunning old peasant character, he made a decision to hibernate for a while.

"Yes, big brother."

……

The next day.

The work was assigned.

Li Zicheng became a rammed earth worker.

Liu Zongmin was arranged to go to the mountains to mine boulders.

Gao Yigong became a stonecrusher wielding a sledgehammer.

Tian Jianxiu arranged to become a pusher.

Liu Fangliang arranged to help transport and cut stones.

After a long day of road repair.

Tired.

Very tired.

It's much more tiring than wielding a big blade to cut people, and it's not that you can rest if you want to rest, you can be lazy if you want to be lazy, and you don't have some skills to work, not to mention that you are tired and half dead, but the efficiency is not as good as others, and it is easy to be fined and deducted wages.

But there are also a few things that satisfy Li Zicheng and others.

First, the supervisor will not supervise very strictly, as long as the workload specified in advance is completed, even if the fish will not say anything in the later stage, as for the phenomenon of whipping people and beating people with sticks, I didn't see it, the common punishment is to deduct wages, and the most serious punishment is to expel the road repair team, which makes Li Zicheng and others feel very humane, but they were immediately shocked, no, Xujiazhuang management personnel, the punishment is not so severe, how can it cause the anger and dissatisfaction of the majority of road builders?

Wrong.

This management model is so wrong.

You should learn from the government and arrange more cool officials, and those who don't listen to the words will be beaten if they work too slowly, and those who procrastinate must be beaten, and they must be whipped fiercely, with some barbs on them, and soaked in salt water, so that the beating can hurt to the bones and make a shocking scream.

Such a good management method, why didn't Xu Jiazhuang learn it? It's just a disappointment for them.

Second, eat well.

Every day at noon and at night, you can eat as much as you want, as long as you can eat and not waste.

Li Zicheng has always felt that this is just deceptive propaganda, and he is full of work? Do you know how much food a man can waste in a meal after doing heavy physical work? The rebel army he led before, even if he captured mountains of grain, even if he repeatedly advertised that he would be able to eat enough to join the rebel army, so as to attract more people to join, but in fact, at most, let the man cook food that could eat four or five points full, and he would never really be full.

Once you really live up to that promise, those pot-bellied guys are guaranteed to surprise you.

You can eat grain and grass for ten days, but three days can give you a clean mess.

Therefore, Li Zicheng believes that on the road construction site, it is good to be able to manage five points of fullness, and it can be called the word 'conscience'.

But Xu Jiazhuang did it.

Li Zicheng really ate two full meals.

At noon, he ate ten large steamed buns, two bowls of boiled vermicelli, five wowotou, more than a pound of shredded potatoes and other side dishes, as well as a large bowl of beef bone soup.

In the evening, he ate five bowls of white rice, a bowl of boiled noodles, four multigrain steamed buns, more than half a catty of side dishes, and a large bowl of seaweed egg drop soup.

It's all in his stomach! I ate it until I couldn't stuff it in my mouth!

Xujiazhuang's promise to be full of money has been achieved without any discount, and the taste is also very good.

There is no mixing sand and gravel in the meals, or using all old or rotten grain, none of this.

And Li Zicheng is not the one who eats the most, he saw with his own eyes a tower-like man, ate three times more food than him, won the championship of the day, and set a new record, and the other road builders were not surprised, and cheered, obviously this kind of big stomach king competition is not a day or two, but can often witness the birth of the big stomach king.

If Xujiazhuang can't provide enough food, where will there be any big stomach competition?

And is it really okay to eat like this?

Does Xujiazhuang have such a thick foundation?

If he, Li Zicheng, could have such a terrifying logistics supply capacity, and what kind of highway would he build, he would directly take down the Ming Dynasty, anyway, he really couldn't understand what Xu Jiazhuang wanted to do.

……

At night, the shack area is behind the mountain.

Dragging the tired and sleepy body, the old brothers gathered together again.

"Big brother, I don't think this place is quite right, it's not the same as I thought before."

Liu Zongmin also found a problem, and said: "Although the work is hard and tiring, but the management is not strict, the food is full, and the salary is paid, I see many people are used to it, but I am afraid that it is not so easy to fan." ”

"Yes, big brother, I was very angry when I was working, and I couldn't wait to kill with a knife, but after eating a full meal, I was in a much better mood, and I didn't think much about rebellion." Gao Yigong also told the truth.

"Rebellion? If it's really the other way around, who cares about everyone's food, who pays everyone's wages, where are the supply and marketing cooperatives for us to buy cheap things? Don't think about it, there's no chance here. Tian Jianxiu saw it more thoroughly and explained the essence of the problem.

"No matter how much food there is in Xujiazhuang, there must be a number, it is eaten by so many people every day, and how many days can it last? I see that I will run out of food soon, there must be a chance! Liu Fangliang said extremely unconvinced.

"It's difficult, Xu Jiazhuang is rich in the world, how can it be so easy to be eaten? Moreover, in the land south of the Yangtze River, there is countless grains, and after a while, there will be a bumper harvest, and new grains will be on the market immediately. Tian Jianxiu said that he also heard it from the mouths of the workers, saying that the "Oriental Times" had written an article, and this year's Jiangnan area will definitely have a bumper harvest, which is expected to be better than last year's harvest, and everyone does not have to worry at all.

"That's enough, don't say any more, go back and rest, I'm already sleepy."

Li Zicheng couldn't listen anymore, turned around and walked towards the shack area.

Bad news.

He felt like all the bad news he had received today.

The bad news that almost completely extinguished the hope in my heart, and from full of joy to despair, it only took a short day.

This Xu Jiazhuang is simply his nemesis, there are no loopholes to drill, strength, financial resources and heritage, as well as the system, are strong in all aspects to make him desperate, let him see the insurmountable barrier between the poor and the rich, so that he can't see the possibility of turning over and counterattacking.

At least if you want to counterattack in the hands of Xu Jiazhuang, it is almost impossible.

"Who?!"

Liu Zongmin suddenly looked in a certain direction alertly.

Brush~

A sneaky figure sprang out from behind a low bush at a rapid speed, and ran towards the shack without looking back, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Gao Yigong, Liu Fangliang and others chased after them with murderous faces, but after entering the shack area with an extremely messy layout, it was impossible to find that person.

"Go back to sleep, go back to sleep, we can't meet again in the next few days, and we must keep a low profile."

Li Zicheng, who felt bad, had to remind everyone.

"Yes, big brother."

The crowd scattered in all directions.

……

The next day, it seemed like business as usual.

But it didn't take long to get to work.

There was a commotion.

I saw a group of people dressed in helmets and armor, the number of which was about 300, who came from west to east, looking fierce and angry, and entered this construction site area like a rampant, demanding to stop what they were doing immediately and get out of the way.

Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin and others among the frightened road builders couldn't help but tremble, it was over, the officials and soldiers were coming at them, and they were about to be finished.

Fortunately, after giving way to a road, these officers and soldiers did not take further action, but stood in two rows and remained on alert.

Immediately afterwards, a man strung with hemp rope, who looked like a criminal, and another group of officers and soldiers escorted, headed to the east with their heads down.

The number of these people who were tied together by ropes was about three hundred, and most of them had fierce faces and fierce eyes, and they didn't look like good stubble.

Li Zicheng couldn't help but exclaim, familiar faces, from the people who were tied into a string, he actually saw a lot of familiar faces, and a few of them were his old brothers who had been lost for many days!

"I know that among you road builders, there are still a lot of thieves involved!"

At this time, in front of the official army, an officer and army general riding on a tall horse said loudly: "But it doesn't matter, as long as you forget your identity as a thief and work on the construction site in a down-to-earth manner, even if someone identifies you, I will not arrest you, but give you a chance to be a new person, you can go on with peace of mind, and no one will trouble you." ”

"However, if you want to be like them, in the middle of the night, hundreds of people gather together to conspire, I'm sorry, we will immediately take arrest action, and then escort them to Shanxi for the crime of thieves and convicts, don't want to be free if you don't work in the mine for more than ten years!"

Yavin

"In addition, we also welcome you to report the act of gathering in private, our rules are like this, the same group of people privately gather conspirators, more than five people and less than ten people, and gather five times in a row, immediately arrested, and the whistleblower will be rewarded with 100 silver dollars; Those who gather more than 100 people and gather three times in a row will be arrested immediately, and the whistleblower will be rewarded with 300 silver dollars, and a relaxed supervision work will be arranged; And those who gather more than 100 people to conspire in private, once discovered, will be arrested immediately, and those who dare to resist will be killed! The whistleblower will be rewarded with 500 silver dollars, and the supervisor and even the steward will be arranged, and everyone is welcome to report enthusiastically! ”

After introducing the relevant reward rules for reporting, the officer and army general left with these officers and soldiers and the arrested thieves.

And Li Zicheng recognized this official general, he was Liu Chenggong, the deputy general of the army Ai Wannian, Li Zicheng had fought with him, but he didn't expect that a court general like him would become a lackey of a merchant like Xujiazhuang.

What made Li Zicheng even more frightened was that he seemed to have walked on the edge of the cliff.

Because according to the reward rules that Liu Chenggong said, he, Liu Zongmin, Gao Yigong and other thirteen people, as long as they gather and plot again in private, the arrest action will be triggered, and it will become a reward of 100 silver dollars for the whistleblower.

Narrow pass!

Danger after risk!

The rules and regulations formulated by Xu Jiazhuang are simply a terrifying cage, and without knowing the specific rules, even a cautious person like him almost planted a big fight.
