Chapter 10: There is a lot of oil and water in the project

Menes woke up early the next day, but Jet's efficiency was still good, and it only took one day to gather a group of people and craftsmen.

Menes led more than a hundred people to the marshes, where priority in agriculture was the norm.

When I arrived at the swamp, I saw a group of mummies with big hammers, beating in a disorderly manner, and actually opened a large area of rocks.

When the men saw a group of bandaged mummies at work, they were so frightened that they all fell to their knees and did not dare to speak.

Menes smiled and said, "Folks, don't be afraid, these are my divine punishment mummies, there is no danger, just listen to me, and I will assist you in your work in the future." ”

Minfu still didn't dare to look up, Menes frowned and thought to himself, "Aren't you living in a mythical world?

Menes shook her head and beckoned the mummy to come over, she needed to let everyone see the obedient and friendly side of the mummy, relax first, and eliminate everyone's fears.

On a whim, Menes decided to let the mummies dance together to make everyone happy.

Menes remembered Michael Jackson's "Thriller" in his previous life, wasn't there a mummy zombie dancing in it? It was a record sales and it was popular all over the world, I wonder if the people here like it?

Menes thought for a while, opened her mouth and hummed, and slowly Menes found her senses, so she directed the mummy to dance like herself.

The mummy is a bit clumsy and slow to learn, and the movements and dance steps are also very clumsy, but this appearance does produce a special sense of comical, and it really makes everyone laugh after a while.

Today is simple, everyone is happy, and in the future, when there is time, simply form a dance team of mummies and perform specifically.

Menes saw that everyone was smiling very happily, and had let go of their fear and vigilance, so she began to speak, "Fellow countrymen, please don't be nervous, I called everyone to work here for the benefit of everyone, our Holy Cat Prefecture arable land is scarce, food production has been very low, I think everyone is also suffering, today we are going to reclaim new land, if this land can be reclaimed, we will be able to get a huge harvest next year." ”

There was no excitement and excitement off the field, and there was an expression of indifference written on everyone's faces.

Menes continued, "I want to tell you that this land is not for Menes, nor for His Majesty Pharaoh, nor for the temple, but for you. ”

When the people heard that it was the land that had been reclaimed for them, they immediately became a little interested, and looked at Menes suspiciously.

"You come here every day to work, and I provide you with food, bread and ale and vegetables every day, according to the normal standard, a fish every three days, a piece of meat every six days, enough to eat, enough ale and wine, and 50 copper coins per day for each day, and of course to make it clear that the first ten days of the month are paid the wages of the previous month. ”

"Most importantly!" Menes said aloud with a deliberate pause.

"As long as everyone completes the work according to the requirements, give everyone a reward for work every day, when your work points reach 100 points, the land will be reclaimed in the future and reward a farmland in Alur. Menis said loudly.

The people couldn't believe it after hearing it, and looked at Menes in surprise, is there such a good thing?

There's food, there's money, and most importantly, there's land? This is Pharaoh's land, and it can be distributed to everyone?

Some people doubt it or not, the aristocratic lord has always said that it doesn't count, what can you do if people don't admit it after you finish your work? It's good to have food and drink.

Some people have begun to silently calculate, if they work for three months in a row, will they have a share of the land? The noble lord will not cheat, and he will change people after working for a while, right? In this way, it will never be possible to save enough for 100 points, and what is the other work?

Menes didn't give much explanation, but asked the scribe to take out the contract that had been written, read it aloud, and after reading it, he passed it on to a few people in the people's team who could read for confirmation.

The contract is very clear that there is no problem with the rights, obligations, distribution methods, etc.

A few literate minfu explained to everyone again, and then the scribe began to roll call, and wrote his name on the contract, next to which he asked the minfu to press his fingerprint.

There are still many people who are nervous and dare not press their handprints, for fear of being deceived by the noble lord, and Menes does not force it, if you don't want to, you can go back now.

In the end, only three people chose to go back, and everyone else was willing to stay, as long as the noble lord was willing to give food and money, and whether the land was given or not would be said later.

Anyway, it was very good for the aristocratic lord to be able to give food before, but this time he has earned the money!

The foreman of the project was Senid, the scribe in charge of the registration.

Senid worked in Menes' family for many years, was born in a local aristocratic family, received education from a young age, and wrote very well.

Senid doesn't approve of Menes' loser style, how can a group of untouchables be qualified to take money and share the land?

The land belongs to the Pharaoh, even if it is a new land that you cultivate yourself, it is also the land of the Pharaoh, and you give it to the untouchables, and in the future the taxes will be your majesty's, and the surplus output will go to this group of untouchables, what good do you have?

Besides, it is His Majesty's decree that the untouchables have to serve in the dry season every year, otherwise why do you think this group of people would come here obediently?

I spoil these untouchables too much, I see how much money you have to be corrupt? Brother Gongzi just likes losers.

Senid muttered to himself while going through the formalities for the people, but he didn't want to say more, no matter what, didn't Lord Menes also pay himself? Besides, the project has always been oily and watery, and he is in charge of the project, which is an opportunity to make money, and if he likes to lose, I will help him to lose well.

Menes first organized the group, and then divided the labor, the main task of the stonemason was to find a good place for the broken rocks, the carpenters made wooden wedges, skids and pulleys, and the other people were divided into teams responsible for installing wooden wedges and loading and unloading stones, and of course, there was also a logistics group, which was responsible for everyone's daily food.

Menes takes everyone to work, especially on how to use the Divine Punishment Mummy.

The mummies stood side by side in front of Menes, well-behaved like children who had made mistakes, and the folk men stared at Menes femdoming mummies.

This mummy is so obedient, with great strength and good endurance, it is simply too powerful, and the people sincerely praise after seeing the power of the mummy, "Lord Menes, you are really the king of mummies!"

Mummy 3 has the highest IQ in the entire mummy team, it is relatively easy to teach, and Mummy 3 can also write, as long as you say it, he can write it as it is, so Menes appointed No. 3 as the leader of the mummies, so that there is no need to teach everyone everything.

In the end, Menes handed over the mummy team to Senid's command in front of everyone, and explicitly ordered the mummies to obey Senid's orders.

Senid took over the command with pride, feeling like the king of mummies.
