Chapter 256: The Grievance Meeting (I)
Lu Hai quickly recorded all his thoughts, and then called people and began to spread them to the caravan in the entire Western Regions.
The hammer here has been carrying the grain on his back and his eldest son is riding home with excitement on his face, his eldest son's food stamp has been exchanged for half a catty of salt, after all, he has to cook at home today! The hammer has been decided, the eldest son's food stamps will be saved from tomorrow, buy a knife first! I've seen the kitchen knife and hammer, and if I buy it and re-forge it, I can forge it into a short knife.
Or directly exchange for a short knife, the short knife is more applicable, but His Royal Highness's short knife is longer, about 100 catties of food stamps to exchange, when the time comes, hunting, skinning, etc. are very useful.
As for the other fools who can't wait to exchange the food stamps back, Hammer pouts disdainfully, they are just afraid that the price behind it will not be so cheap, and they have no vision at all! How is it possible for His Highness to raise the price?! What are you doing with all that grain exchange? Do you want to keep it to feed the mice?!
Just prepare a ration for more than ten days at home, and exchange the rest for iron, and hunt for something in the future.
Back at home, the hammer saw his mother-in-law and second son, and learned from their mouths that they actually had a new task, and his second son has now successfully received the task of transportation, starting from today, his second son, like them, is also working at a fixed time, following the transport team organized by His Royal Highness, to deliver materials to various areas.
And his daughter-in-law has also become a formal worker, but instead of cooking, she has to go to Huangshui to help measure something.
This means that their family can get 20 catties of food stamps a day, and 20 catties a day! They never thought there would be so much food!
"Mother-in-law, I have already thought about it, we can't exchange so much food, the food can't be put away, it's easy to spoil after a long time, and there are rats, we have to exchange some iron tools back, in this way, in the future, Your Highness will have less work here, and we won't worry about hunting." I even want to exchange it for an iron pot! "Hammer has already begun to imagine a new life in the future, and the iron pot is too important for them.
Now when the clay pot migrates, it is often broken, and they fire it themselves, and the quality is very poor, but the iron pot is different, and it can't be broken no matter how you use it.
"Listen to you." Iron Hammer's mother-in-law's face was much ruddy, and her body bones were also hard, she smiled and said, the days are good, now even if there are no cattle and sheep, they can't starve to death, it's really immortal God bless, where did they dare to think about the iron pot before, now they can really think about it.
"Hammer!" Just as Hammer was imagining, a man's voice suddenly came from outside.
"It's the captain, I'll go out and see if there's something wrong with Your Highness." Hammer was startled, and he heard the captain who was in charge of his construction site every day.
"Then go quickly, don't dare to delay Your Highness's affairs." Hammer Lady hurriedly said.
"Muller come with me." Hammer shouted and went out with his eldest son.
When they reached the outside of the tent, Hammer saw the captain in the distance by the bright moonlight.
"Captain Wang, what's the matter?"
"It's really your house, it seems that I am not wrong." Captain Wang walked over with a smile, then turned over in front of their tent and said, "It's nothing big, I'm here to convey some of His Highness's thoughts, the main thing is to talk to you, Your Highness wants to hear what opinions and ideas you have." ”
"Don't you dare, Captain Wang, if you say so, doesn't it make my soul unable to return to the Immortal Heaven after the hammer dies?! Your Highness is kind to us herdsmen...... How can we have ideas and opinions, we can't thank you too late! The hammer was immediately anxious.
"Hahaha, don't worry, this is what His Highness meant, so, Mule, you go and call the twenty herdsmen in your vicinity. ...... respectively, I will trouble holding a meeting at your house! Captain Wang spat out a series of names.
"I know, I'll go now!" As soon as Muller heard this, he turned over and walked away, the moon was bright today, so he was not worried about not being able to see the road, and these people lived not far from them.
"Captain Wang, come in and sit down." Hammer hurriedly moved out of the way of the yurt.
"No, then you have firewood at home, light a fire, and light some smoked mosquito grass, and there will be a lot of people coming in a while, so we will have a meeting outside here." Captain Wang said with a smile.
"Good!" Iron Hammer immediately beckoned his second son and his mother-in-law to start preparing.
A vigorous bonfire soon lit up the night sky, and the sound of horses' hooves in the distance gradually sounded. A rough voice kept sounding in the night sky: "Is something happening to Captain Wang?" Is it His Highness who needs us?! ”
Captain Wang explained with a smile one by one, and it was not too troublesome, smiling like a kind old man.
Soon twenty herdsmen arrived here, and Captain Wang beckoned them to sit down, and then said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the case, it was His Highness who entrusted me to talk to you, don't think too much, Your Highness has nothing to do, after all, now that the army is stationed here, who rushed to trouble Your Highness." ”
"Captain Wang, you say, whatever your Highness commands, we will carry them out."
"It's not an order, His Highness said it, it's just to chat with everyone, of course, there are some changes, after all, we are all Datang people now! It must be to abide by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and what Your Highness means to let me tell you is that this is the case, every family, Your Highness will soon distribute Yongye cattle, sheep and horses to everyone! At that time, everyone needs to register their household registration. ”
"And now you are all scattered, Your Highness means, you twenty families have built felt tents together! Then, the cattle and sheep of each of your households, after each of you have marked them, are mixed together and grazed, and the pastures of your twenty families are also gathered. ”
"This has the advantage that four or five men will be enough to graze the pastures of twenty of your families, and the rest, except for the children, His Highness will hopefully hire you to work, so that you may save some more food, or salt, iron, and the like. Oh yes, and linen, and the next batch of linen will be delivered in large quantities, and the food stamps will be exchanged for linen when the time comes. Captain Wang said with a smile.
"Captain Wang." Tiele listened to the excitement, he couldn't help but speak: "Your Highness's orders are naturally willing, not to mention moving together, even if we form a tribe, it is no problem, Your Highness is indeed much more convenient to do this, you can concentrate on grazing, but there are so many of us...... Your Highness...... Your Highness, will it be Your Highness, is there so much food? ”
"I'm not afraid that His Highness won't be able to give us food...... I am...... I just think so, Your Highness is too much of a loss. Hammer was a little embarrassed, he didn't speak very well, he always felt that it was wrong to say that, but he couldn't find any more suitable words.
"That's right, Captain Wang, what the hammer said is right, otherwise it would be enough to give us less food every day, I think three catties per person is enough." A man immediately spoke.
Everyone else chimed in!
Captain Wang smiled: "I know what everyone means, are you afraid that Your Highness will suddenly run out of food, and your good life will end." ”
When Captain Wang said this, they were all a little embarrassed, they did have such a mind, they would rather take less food every day, and they also wanted His Highness to be able to continue.
