Out of the back office, Zhu Chengjun saw a man who had several faces, as if he had been waiting in the court for a long time.

"I've seen Zhu ...... Son. "The person waiting for him is Xun Zhutou.

Since the previous court officials were ambushed, Zhu Chengjun has never seen Xun Gang.

"It turned out to be Xun Zhutou." Zhu Chengjun could see that Xun Zhutou was unwilling to admit that he was a county order sealed by the Mongols, and he didn't care about it, anyway, he never thought of being an official and eating the court's Yulu, and gently glanced at Xun Zhutou, who was full of righteousness, Zhu Chengjun smiled and said: "Xun Zhutou is waiting for me here?" Don't know what's going on? ”

Xun Gang was hesitant, and there seemed to be something unspeakable.

Zhu Chengjun didn't have time to spend time with him here, the big urban construction project had been launched, and he must be very busy during this time, Zhu Chengjun was impatient: "If Your Excellency is fine, don't delay my time." ”

Xun Gang saw that Zhu Chengjun was obviously different from the officials he had encountered, of course, the main reason was that Zhu Chengjun had been a county official for a few days, and he had not been contaminated with any officialdom habits. It can be seen that the other party is a cheerful person, Xun Gang also has something to say, and he clenched his fists and said bluntly: "I want to invite Zhu ...... The adult retried the unjust case in the county. ”

"Unjust?" In this era, it would be a rare thing if there were not a few unjust, false and wrongful cases, Zhu Chengjun asked rhetorically: "You are the head arrester of the county class, and most of the people in the cell were arrested by your hands, so I don't see you hesitating when you take people." ”

Thinking that he had an unpleasant quarrel with Qian Xuantong at the beginning, Xun Gang was obviously suspected of favoritism.

"I am also acting on orders." Xun Gang said helplessly.

Zhu Chengjun waved his hand: "My official is sealed by the Mongols, I don't know when I will roll up and leave, I have no interest in trying the case, not to mention that you don't recognize us as a magistrate from the bottom of your heart." Immediately after that, Zhu Chengjun changed his words and said very irresponsibly: "Now that the mountains and rivers are falling, I don't know what will become of it in the future, you just take advantage of the chaos to open the class room and release people directly, it is all up to your personal wishes, you can release whoever you like, I don't bother to care about you." ”

Now that the words have been said for this part, Xun Gang can see that Zhu Chengjun has no intention of cleaning up the unjust prison.

"I've never thought of it that way." Xun Gang let out a long sigh: "They can only live at ease in the future when they get the release document from the government, otherwise they will face the white eyes of the neighbors and will not be able to raise their heads to be people." ”

In the era of feudal officials, the people were afraid of officials like tigers and wolves, this fear has long been rooted in the bone marrow, and they did not fight with the officials, as long as the government did not force them to have no way to live, the people would choose to swallow their anger and be docile and good citizens.

"I've got something to do." Zhu Chengjun ignored Xun Gang, lifted his feet and walked outside.

"Lord Zhu! You have done so many practical things for the people of this county, and this matter is just a gesture, why do you ...... Such indifference! Xun Gang yelled at Zhu Chengjun's departing back, but Zhu Chengjun didn't slow down at all.

"My lord......" Xun Gang pounced and knelt straight on the court.

Xun Gang kowtowed and bowed, but he still couldn't get Zhu Chengjun back.

A head catcher who is willing to kneel for the people will definitely not be bad for people, Xu Xiao saw this and turned back.

"Xun Zhutou, my eldest brother is really serious." Xu Xiao saw Zhu Chengjun walking away alone, and left a sentence to Xun Gang: "If you don't believe it, follow me to take a look." Before the words fell, Xu Xiao rushed out of the county office, the current situation is not peaceful, the eldest brother is a weak scholar, and it is really not good to have no one around to protect him.

Xun Gang chose to believe Xu Xiao's words, and followed closely by Zhu Chengjun and Xu Xiao.

Along the way, the streets of the county town are much calmer than before.

Out of the city gate, you can see busy figures everywhere, and the construction workers are sweating like rain.

The first step of the urban construction project is to improve the urban transportation network, and the migrant workers will start construction in sections under the command and dispatch of Lu Heng and others, and the progress of road construction will be visible to the naked eye. Since they are not serving in forced labor, they are paid for their work, and everyone is even more energetic and does not feel tired at all.

"Amazing builders." Seeing the energy of everyone when they worked, Zhu Chengjun naturally thought of the infrastructure workers of later generations, and couldn't help but praise them from the bottom of his heart.

The road construction site was in good order, Zhu Chengjun walked around at will to inspect, and inadvertently saw a few familiar figures, and when he got closer, it was Lu Heng and Wei Ying, and saw that the two of them were sweating and grim like all the migrant workers.

Seeing the sloppy appearance of the two, Zhu Chengjun smiled dumbly, and quipped: "Brother Lu, Brother Wei, you are out of the command post, be careful that I remember you for dereliction of duty." ”

"It's all arranged, everyone is actively cooperating, and we are idle, working, sweating, and sleeping well at night." The two smiled innocently.

Zhu Chengjun saw that the two of them were smiling a little bitterly and far-fetched, and he must have hidden something in his heart, turned around and looked around, and found that his classmates and friends had changed into coarse cloth clothes and were sweating like rain on the construction site like all migrant workers.

Scholars have always regarded themselves as high-minded, and if they really want them to do rough work and manual work, they will definitely have resentment in their hearts. Now that the Song Dynasty is worried about the death of the country, the road to the imperial examination has been interrupted, and they have no clear goal for a while, and the reason why they choose to do the same work as all the migrant workers is just to vent.

Zhu Chengjun shook his head and motioned for Xu Xiao to invite them over.

The number of scholars in the world has not yet overflowed to this extent, and it is a clear waste of talent to let them do this work.

"Brother Zhu." Everyone wiped the sweat from their foreheads and saluted with fists.

Zhu Chengjun grabbed Deng Yue's hand, and found that several places were already red, and he had to blister after a while, Zhu Chengjun shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Deng, you are not registered, don't blame me for not giving you wages afterwards." ”

"It's okay, in Brother Zhu's words, it should be exercised." As he spoke, Deng Yue withdrew his hand.

Zhu Chengjun turned around and looked around and found that there was no suitable place to sit, so he immediately took the lead and sat cross-legged on the ground, and everyone knew that Zhu Chengjun had something to say to them, so they all sat down.

Zhu Chengjun glanced at the woman who was running to the construction site to deliver water, and asked casually, "What's the matter with them?" ”

Shi Qian shook his head and sighed lightly: "There are more than a large group of old men who are idle at home this year. ”

"They can't bear to let their men work too hard, they come voluntarily, and they don't count as wages." Wei Ying replied.

In the era of small-scale peasant economy, self-sufficiency, most of the daughters-in-law of ordinary people chose those women who could spin and weave cloth, and if a skillful and diligent woman could weave cloth for a month, she could barely maintain the livelihood of the family.

"Most of them must be able to spin and weave." Zhu Chengjun asked casually.

"They are all women from ordinary people's families, if they don't know this, I'm afraid it's not easy to marry."

"Haha......" everyone in the audience couldn't help laughing.

"Brother Zhu planned an industrial park, including a textile factory......"

"Brother Zhu wants them to weave cloth in the workshop?"

Zhu Chengjun said with a smile: "The textile factory can't recruit a group of big men." ”

"Haha......"

"Yes...... The yield of silkworms in this county is not high, and it is woven with burlap...... It can't be done that way. ”

…………

Textile is one of the labor-intensive industries, with the current productivity, the profit from the production of coarse cloth is almost not worth the labor, and most of the linen cloth on the market is produced by industrious housewives in their spare time.

Zhu Chengjun, a textile tool in the Song Dynasty, has seen that as long as a few key links are slightly improved, the production cost can be significantly reduced, although the profit is still meager, but it can also support the weaving and linen workshop to continue to open. If the process is split one by one according to the modern assembly line operation, the profit will definitely be raised.

In order to dispel everyone's doubts, Zhu Chengjun pretended to be mysterious and said: "If the efficiency of spinning production is increased several times on the original basis...... And how? ”

"Brother Zhu is really sure of this?!"

"If the spinning process can be increased several times, the textile workshop will definitely be profitable!"

…………

Zhu Chengjun nodded solemnly to give everyone full confidence, but there are problems that need to be solved urgently, Zhu Chengjun looked at Lu Heng and proposed: "I think most people need to go home at noon, I propose to recruit a group of women to cook at the construction site, which can improve everyone's enthusiasm and avoid overwork." Since the time of commuting to and from work is saved, the working time can be shortened. Zhu Chengjun raised his eyes and looked around again and said: "Since lunch is provided, you might as well build a few more sheds nearby for everyone to eat and rest, in order to ensure that everyone has time to accompany their families, I propose to work for six days and rest for one, and you can receive the seventh day's salary after six days." In order to ensure that there are people working on the site at all times, you can flexibly arrange the working time according to the actual situation. ”

"Good!" Wei Ying clapped his palms and praised, and then slapped his head: "Why didn't I think about this in the first place." ”

"It's great to be rewarded with one day's wages for six days!"

"Brother Zhu thinks about the people everywhere, and his parents deserve their name." Deng Yue bowed lightly.

Zhu Chengjun wiped his nose, feeling ashamed in his heart, he just didn't want to use people as cattle and horses, and this kind of work arrangement was just one more rest time than the factories in later generations without having to work night shifts.

"That's not enough." Zhu Chengjun glanced at everyone's surprised expressions at the moment, and then said: "On the sixth day, everyone can finish work half an hour early, and the salary is a lot. In order to enrich everyone's spiritual life, I think that some entertainment activities can be arranged on the sixth day of early work, such as inviting a storyteller to tell you a story, which can be regarded as the county government to comfort everyone. ”

"I have money, I have time to rest, and I can listen to books for free, this treatment is simply great!"

"I recommend a storyteller to adults."

Zhu Chengjun pretended to be surprised, and said with a smile: "Our brothers are really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." ”

"Haha......" Everyone laughed loudly, and the atmosphere of conversation became more and more harmonious and relaxed.

"Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields, Brother Tan, you have to work harder."

"Mr. Tan, why don't you improvise a paragraph for the big guys."

"Haha......"

Tan Ruohai got up and saluted everyone: "You must do your best in the future." ”

Zhu Chengjun saw that the atmosphere at the scene was harmonious, and said in a timely manner: "I hope you will take care of the compilation of teaching materials." ”

Hearing this, everyone was not interested, and the atmosphere of the scene cooled down instantly.

Zhu Chengjun said with relief: "I understand the feelings of your brothers. The sages have clouds: establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations. The aspirations and hopes of the sages are so inseparable from the scholars? Isn't it one of the missions of readers to continue the context and forge ahead into the future? ”

"Studying is not only a way to enter the imperial examination, I will understand." Deng Yue swept away the gloom in his heart.

"Continue the context, carry on the past and forge ahead into the future! Brother Zhu said it too well. ”

"Thank you, Brother Zhu, for your kind words."

…………

Zhu Chengjun bowed his head happily, and finally got the ideological work of this group of pedantic scholars through, which is not easy.
