Qiao Er is an ordinary Song Zimin, who does not have the rich and legendary experience of Xiao Wu and Lao Qi.

Before coming to Xinhang Mine, he was just an ordinary rural farmer.

If there is anything special about it compared to other farmers, it is that Qiao Er can recognize a few words, and he can do arithmetic, and he can calculate very quickly, fast and good.

Unlike Xiao Wu and Lao Qi, Qiao Er has never had any lofty ambitions, let alone thought about anything bad about the Great Song Dynasty and overthrowing this decadent feudal regime.

In his opinion, these thieves, who have been shouting for rebellion all day long, are completely dangerous.

However, this thinking has changed a little in recent times.

Qiao Er's dream when he was a child was to go to Lin'an City to work as an accountant like a clan brother or watch a few coolies on the dock to calculate the work for them.

So he has put a lot of hard work into the clerical and official language.

It's a pity that creation makes people, Qiao Er lived to be forty-two years old and didn't get out of the village, and the old men of Lin'an City looked down on him as a country man who didn't have much experience and only ate with talent.

thinks that he is not fundamentally different from those splashes in Lin'an City.

But when he entered the Xinhang Mine, Qiao Er's experience made him jump to become one of the best students in the literacy class.

And because he knows a lot of words, he is very much liked by the fat teacher in the class who always laughs a little honestly.

In order to motivate the big guy's enthusiasm for learning, the chubby teacher also made a special trip to Qiao Er to issue an after-school task.

Let him tell the big guy some books to listen to.

Naturally, it is not the Four Books and the Five Classics, but a book and story similar to various folk anecdotes.

At the beginning, Qiao Er warned himself in his heart not to be a thief.

As a person who roughly understands a few words, Qiao Er can see it very clearly.

The Immortal Sect is essentially a rebellion, and these Taoists will raise their arms in the future, and they will coerce the big guys to enter Tokyo together and seize the throne.

When the time comes, these people will be thieves, and they will be connected to the nine tribes.

I was forced to move here just to survive.

If it weren't for the fear of the power of the gods and gods, Qiao Er would have wanted to run away to Lin'an City to find someone to expose this bandit's nest.

However, what he didn't know was that now the Mansion Yin of Lin'an Mansion had been replaced by Cai Dafu Yin, who was extremely devout to the Immortal Sect, under Zhang Yuqing's operation.

Bao Xiren has officially assumed the post of governor of Kaifeng.

And also officially sent a post to the Changsheng Sect left behind in Xishan asking to meet Daozi, hoping to meet Zhang Yuqing for a good discussion.

However, Zhang Yuqing was busy with external activities and didn't have time to pay attention to him, and he had already replied to Bao Xiren's post three times.

Under the influence of the infiltration of the Immortal Sect, the officials in the important points around Lin'an Mansion are gradually replaced by officials with firm beliefs.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Yuqing came here to preside over the work in person.

Lin'an Mansion will become an important hinterland area for the Immortal Sect in the future.

In this case, if Qiao Er went to complain, he would be arrested and put in prison immediately.

In fact, during this period of time, Cai Yan's side has already caught a lot of people who have heard about and seen the strange behavior of the Immortal Sect.

However, as one of the first officials to fully surrender to the Immortal Sect, Cai Yu faithfully carried out Zhang Yuqing's decree and kept these people firmly under guard.

and neither mistreat them, nor let them go.

I only told them that the government now attaches great importance to this matter and is secretly investigating, so in order to protect them and the people, they are temporarily detained and detained for a while.

I won't let them out until things get to the bottom of my story.

Of course, as for when it will come out, it depends on how long the Immortal Sect will be able to penetrate the people of Yifu.

When this group of people is released, it will be found that the entire Lin'an Mansion only knows that there is an immortal venerable but does not know that there is Zhao Zhen.

Qiao Er didn't know all this, but his natural caution made him afraid to tell the truth, so he stayed in the Xinhang mine day by day to live the days of farming, building, studying, and eating.

But later, Qiao Er gradually became really fragrant.

There is food and shelter here, and the food is simply better than what Yin eats in Lin'an Mansion, and the Taoist masters of the Immortal Sect also made their promises and personally signed the land deed issued to Qiao Er.

For Qiao Er, whose house and fields were all washed away by the flood, it was tantamount to re-becoming a citizen class with assets from a pauper, and at that moment his waist was straightened for a long time, and he felt that he was able to walk and eat more fragrantly.

Now it is the spring ploughing period, and Meimei walks several miles every day to cultivate the immortal seeds sent down by the Immortal Sect, looking forward to the day when the mu will yield thousands of catties in the future.

In the evening, as long as you help the Taoist elders build houses together, you can get a bowl of rice porridge for free.

Not to mention how jolly it is.

What's more, these houses will be allocated to them for their own use free of charge in the future.

It is equivalent to saying that they are basically building their own houses now, and the Immortal Sect will pay them food as a reward.

Is there anything better in this world?

Qiao Er didn't know.

He only knew that in the past, when it was his turn to go out to help the imperial court, the imperial court would not mention providing salaries, and even dry food had to be prepared by itself, and no one would care about you if you starved to death.

Now build a house for yourself, the Immortal Sect will also take care of your food, and provide you with a Chase Shop for fifty people at night.

Qiao Er is not a fool, he has long figured out which is more important than the imperial court and the immortal sect.

The idea of whistleblowing has long since been extinguished.

I even wondered if I could be a military commander or something when the Immortal Sect Daozi recruited troops in the future.

After all, I am more literate and know how to count!

Not to mention anything else, from one to five, he recited it like a stream, and he would definitely not miss or overcount the soldiers under his command.

……

On this day, Qiao Er was still spitting and telling everyone some ghost stories, and when he arrived at the wonderful place, everyone burst into applause, and even some of the people who came to watch after the other literacy classes had nothing to do also echoed and applauded.

At this time, Xiao Wu walked over with a hoe.

After Xiao Wu's group of military men joined the Immortal Sect, due to their past experiences, they were absorbed into the literacy class to teach the people some skills such as military physical boxing.

According to Zhang Yuqing, it is to strengthen the body, and he doesn't expect to rely on them to fight anyway.

If there is really a head-on conflict in the future, there will naturally be official protectors on top, and there is no need to rely on them.

But now the people's spare time life is too scarce, and people are prone to accidents when they are idle, so they are all busy, just don't be idle.

Xiao Wu and the others were not convinced, but they were all put down by Lu Liang, an old decay, and they were silent in an instant.

The Dao Masters of the Immortal Sect all seemed to be infinitely powerful, and the little martial arts they knew were completely unsightly in front of the Dao Masters.

It is no wonder that His Highness Daozi did not approve of their proposal to send soldiers to practice day and night.

I had to obediently join the literacy version like ordinary people, work hard to learn simplified Chinese characters and basic mathematics, and teach some interested people military boxing in their spare time.

Xiao Wu put the hoe up and said, "Qiao Er, your luck has come, the master of the Daoist wants to see you." ”

Qiao Er, a fierce character like Xiao Wu, had already heard of it, and he didn't dare to offend Xiao Wu, so he quickly stood up and asked, "Fifth Master, do you know what His Royal Highness called the grass people?" ”

"How do I know what Daozi thinks?"

Xiao Wu shook his head, "Also, don't you want to call me Fifth Master again, just call me Yang Wulang, doesn't the literacy class tell you that mortals are born equal, there is no distinction between high and low, only the difference between immortals and mortals?" Got it? ”

"Yes, yes!"

Xiao Wu nodded again and again, said goodbye to the people who heard the story halfway, and walked towards the Taoist temple.

As soon as Qiao Er arrived, he saw that many men were working together to unload the goods from the cart drawn by two large horses.

Seeing Qiao Er coming, Zhang Yuqing beckoned: "Come over and see how these rice noodles are doing?" ”

Hearing this, Qiao Er hurriedly stepped forward.

He picked up some rice noodles and put them on the tip of his tongue and licked them, then said, "It's much finer than the one in the market!" ”

Following the rice noodle problem, Zhang Yuqing casually taught Qiao Er a few math problems.

For example, a rice warehouse with a volume of nine stones, A puts ten buckets of rice every day, Zhang San steals three buckets of rice every day, and Shuo Rat eats five taels of rice every day, how many days can the rice warehouse be filled......

Qiao Erjun gave the answer in the blink of an eye, and it was exactly the same.

Zhang Yuqing said with a smile: "I heard that you are proficient in arithmetic, and it seems that this is the case." ”

"His Royal Highness Daozi has won the award, and the grass people only know some account documents, and they are all small ......"

Qiao Er was telling the truth.

In his opinion, the Great Dao is naturally to read the books of Confucius and Mencius, and secondly, like the clan brothers, can be a bookkeeper in Lin'an.

A person like himself who can only settle accounts is a small path within a small road, almost like a craftsman.

Zhang Yuqing laughed: "Don't be too modest, in my opinion, you are more useful than ten Confucian students!" ”

Zhang Yuqing wants to set up a factory, even if it is the simplest lumber plant, it is impossible to do without a management talent like a professional manager.

Of course, the general direction of the factory is taken care of by Zhang Yuqing, but all kinds of small bits and pieces need someone to take care of them.

Lu Liang is a reassuring candidate, but he is old after all, and Zhang Yuqing has more secret things for him to do.

So after all, this Qiao Er is the most suitable.

Zhang Yuqing had already asked Lu Liang to send someone to secretly observe Qiao Er's words and deeds, and found that he was the fastest among all the people in learning the literacy class.

Although only a few simplified characters are taught in literacy classes, the scope is more complex.

It involves many ideological transformations, such as inculcating some equality and class ideas.

Those who can quickly achieve these transformations must be people who naturally agree more with the teachings of the Immortal Religion.

At this moment, Zhang Yuqing closed his eyes and looked at Qiao Ertou.

I feel that his belief value has crossed the line, about between a fanatic believer and Lu Liang.

Anyone who can reach the level of a fanatic believer is basically not afraid to betray him.

The political consciousness is good, and the political examination has passed.

So Zhang Yuqing personally tested his arithmetic ability, and officially promoted him to deputy factory manager.

Qiao Er was overjoyed, although he didn't understand what the title of this deputy manager was, he hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, and went home happily.

……

"All these grains have been distributed, and the people can all receive a pound of rice and noodles if they can speak some Kaifeng official dialect smoothly.

If you can write your own name, you can sing a song, and you can get a tael of oil and a foot of cloth. ”

This time, Zhang Yuqing completely moved all the grain from the Eastern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation Realm to the Xinhang Mine, and he was ready to send all these things to the people.

Although there are not many things, Zhang Yuqing is ready to send them every week, and it won't cost a lot of money anyway.

As long as the assessment standards are raised a little bit every time, it can motivate everyone to learn, which is earned for Zhang Yuqing.

In this era of scarcity of non-staple food, even women and children have to eat at least one pound of grain every day.

Two catties of grain per week, this amount can't support a lazy man, but it can buy people's hearts.

At least no one complains about learning cultural knowledge anymore.

Many times, it's not that you don't like to learn, but that you don't learn to be useful.

If you read an ancient poem like a game, you can get +1 EQ for every time you read an ancient poem, and +1 for intelligence for every math problem you do.

After 100 hours of study, you will be able to achieve an accomplishment, and if you have studied for 100,000 hours, you will be awarded a bachelor's degree.

If there is really such a setting in this world, there will definitely be a lot more Xueba Liver Emperor.

……

Building a factory is not an easy task, especially before the industrial age.

In order to plan a factory that can smoothly produce stable products, it is necessary to have very detailed preliminary planning.

For this reason, the madmen in the Taoist Academy stayed up all night and came up with many sets of plans, but they were killed by Zhang Yuqing one by one.

As a person who has seen the assembly line of later generations, Zhang Yuqing personally wrote and planned the construction drawings of the first factory.

Lu Liang looked at the lengthy list of supplies and the money spent like water, and felt that his heart was dripping blood.

The amount of wood and stone of all kinds is almost astronomical.

Workers should have uniform tooling when they enter the company, and one person should prepare two sets for easy cleaning.

These thousands and hundreds of sets of clothes are about to be emptied of the textile shops in Lin'an City.

There are many other extra-budgetary expenses such as these.

The brick-concrete fence required by the factory needs to be fired by someone starting from the building brick kiln.

Otherwise, you have to go to Jiangxi by boat to purchase. It takes much more effort to go back and forth than to fire it yourself.

With this in mind, the cost of building three factories would be at least two million yuan!

After all, in this backward era, many things can't find a place to buy even if they want to, so they can only use local materials and consume some manpower to make their own.

Lu Liang shook his head with a wry smile, and with a wave of his hand, he began to recruit ordinary laborers, don't say anything, let's do it!

All the people who are willing to come to build the factory will be given priority when the factory recruits workers in the future!

As soon as the people heard that there was such a good thing, everyone rushed to sign up to participate in the construction, and the enthusiasm of everyone who was in charge of recruiting workers almost kept them busy, and they even had to take shifts to eat.

Although after entering this Xinhang mine, the big guys can change their meals through study, but if they want to live a good life, it is definitely not enough to rely on this food.
