Chapter 137: It's Started

On the second day, Zong Jing took his subordinates and others to take over all the materials and the like of the Zong family.

And the two of Zongjing's subordinates also brought over the drawings of the construction of the Zongren Mansion that had been drawn.

That night, Zong Han happily ran over to report that nearly 100 people had come around in one day today.

Zong Zhuoyuan has been drinking and chatting with the new Zong family disciples every night for the past two days, and of course today is no exception.

Lin You didn't accompany Zong Zhuo to the cyclamen tonight, but called Zong Jing and his two capable people who drew drawings to discuss the start of the construction of the Zongren Mansion early tomorrow morning.

"Brother Lin, the materials have been transported outside the northern city wall, and the rest are also being transported to Qianlian City from all over the country, and the money needed has also been disbursed, just waiting for the start of construction tomorrow!" Zong Jing said with some excitement.

"Okay!" Lin You nodded: "Zongjing, you have someone under you who can write well, right?"

Zongjing nodded: "Of course!"

"Well, tomorrow I will write a few big characters and hang them in front of the north gate of the city. Lin You said: "I also have to write a notice to mobilize the people in the city to help build it, and the construction speed of this people's mansion must be as fast as possible!"

"No problem!" Zong Jing said: "You command, I'll do it!"

The next morning, a large group of people gathered at the north gate of Qianlian City, most of whom were children of the Zong family.

On both sides of the city gate, a banner is hung, and on the left side is written "Gong in the Present Generation". On the right is "Benefit in the Thousand Autumns"! A notice was posted under the city gate, informing the people in the city that anyone who came to build the Zongren's Mansion would be given one penny of silver a day and three meals a day.

As the news spread, the crowd gathered around the north gate of the city grew.

Zong Zhuoyuan stood on the city wall, and after a simple mobilization, the firecrackers rang out, and the Zongren Mansion was about to start.

After Zong Zhuoyuan walked down the city wall, without saying a word, he took off his robe, put on a short coat, and immediately threw himself into the construction site.

Lin You and the three of them also joined the construction project.

Seeing this, the rest of the sect's children hurriedly took off their coats and went to work.

For a time, the north of the city was noisy and lively.

was busy, a group of people came to the city gate, about a hundred or ten people, bustling towards the construction site.

Zong Zhuoyuan and the others looked up, and it was Zong Shufan and Zong Lin who walked in front of this group of people.

The two of them were also dressed in short clothes, and everyone behind them cleaned up neatly.

"Seventh brother, we're here to help too!" Zong Shufan and Zong Lin said when they came to Zong Zhuoyuan's side.

Zong Zhuoyuan nodded: "Okay! Then let's get to work!"

The two of them didn't talk nonsense, turned around and said hello, and more than 100 people were also put into construction.

When the people of the city heard that there was money to be made and that they were in charge of food, they poured in from the city with their tools.

Lin You saw that there were more and more people, a smile appeared on his face, and he said to Zong Zhuoyuan: "Zhuoyuan, call all the children of the Zong family, there are more and more people, and someone needs to manage them, so you can't do it brutally." ”

Zong Zhuoyuan nodded, stopped Zong Han, and informed all the children of the Zong family to have a meeting by the city wall.

Lin You called the Zong Jing and the two designers, and asked them to distribute them uniformly to the children of the Zong family.

Zongjing was not in a hurry, and discussed with his subordinates for a while, and then arranged them one by one.

Zong Zhuoyuan saw that the Zongjing arrangement was orderly, busy but not chaotic, and couldn't help but look at Lin You, nodding again and again.

It's just that the female disciples of the sect who came to report early in the morning were originally standing aside to watch the excitement, but they were also gathered.

Zongjing's arrangement for them is to cook for all these construction workers.

These daughters are dumbfounded, they are all dressed and fed on weekdays, and they have been in the kitchen!

One or two of them were knowledgeable, and they immediately agreed.

After a short time, these women and brothers called a large group of old mothers and daughters-in-law from the city, and some people were transferred to bring pots and stoves, etc., and built temporary houses and stoves in an open space outside the north of the city.

It's only half a day's work, and outside the north of the city, there are noisy people, and the roar is shocking.

In the afternoon of the same day, not only the idle people in Qianlian City joined in, but even the people of the nearby villages rushed over.

Zong Jing watched the crowd become more and more, his face became excited, his face was flushed, and he constantly commanded a few people around him, arranging various affairs.

Zong Zhuoyuan and the four of them stood on the city wall, looking at the vigorous labor scene below, and they were also excited.

The first day of construction passed in the busyness of everyone.

That night, Lin You and others got the news that Zong Zhujie was back.

Lin You called Zong Zhuoyuan and the three of them and rushed to Zong Zhujie's study together.

After the briefing, Lin You and the four walked into the room.

When Zong Zhujie saw the four of them, he laughed first: "Okay, good job!"

Lin You said with a smile: "It's not that the old man, you are running around and making good contacts, so that we are like fish in water in this city!"

Zong Zhujie looked at Lin You and said, "Tell me, how did you get Shu'er's mother to hand over the financial power of the Zong family!"

Wei Jia smiled and said: "It's a trivial matter, it's just that I said a cross talk with Youyou, which scared her, and this is done!"

"Cross talk!" Zong Zhujie was puzzled.

Lin You said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, we just know the righteousness, and Aunt Ming is reasonable, so she handed over the power." ”

"The future is terrifying!" Zong Zhujie shook his head and looked at the four of them, with a happy face.

"Old man, you are so happy to come back, it seems that the uncles around here have agreed to support Zhuoyuan?" Lin You asked.

Zong Zhujie nodded: "It took a lot of trouble for a few of them, but I also know the righteousness, and they are also reasonable, so I also agreed." ”

After speaking, he looked at Zong Zhuoyuan and said: "It's just that these people have contributed a lot to the Zong family, I promised them, as long as I am in one day, they can be their own city lords in peace." ”

When Zong Zhuoyuan heard this, his face turned pale.

Zong Zhujie said again: "But at the same time, they also agreed to my conditions, that is, their children no longer enjoy privileges and are treated the same as all the children of the Zong family." ”

Lin You said: "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, this is acceptable, these uncles are not ordinary people, I think it is more than enough to be a city lord!"

Zong Zhujie nodded and said: "In fact, who will do the city lord is not the biggest problem of the Zong family, the biggest problem of the Zong family is that there is a huge difference in the treatment between the children, and the identity determines a person's life." That's the most important thing!"

Lin You nodded and said, "Old man, it's good that you're back, now that the elders of the Zizong Sect are gathered, we can start handling this matter!"

Zong Zhujie looked at Lin You with great interest and said, "So fast, tell me, what are you planning!"

Lin You looked at Zong Zhuoyuan and said, "This, let's let Zhuoyuan say it!" After all, he wants to give his father and son a chance to communicate.

Zong Zhujie looked at Zong Zhuoyuan.

Zong Zhuoyuan's face was expressionless, and he said: "This is the first step of changing the sect law, and those who have already contributed to the sect can retain their authority." Except for the old, weak, sick and disabled, all the other children of the clan who are over 20 years old and above the formation period must accumulate merits step by step from various experiences in the border city, and according to the size of their ability, the elders will arrange their duties according to their abilities. ”

"Of course, if you are unwilling to contribute to the family, and are willing to do nothing, you will also receive a certain amount of expenses and materials every month, and the family will not let it go!" Zong Zhuoyuan said: "All in all, it is still the original sentence, those who can live in it!"

Zong Zhujie listened to Zong Zhuoyuan's speech and nodded.

"These are just approximate, as for the details, we have drawn up a restriction, the name is the patriarchal law, and it is very detailed!" Zong Zhuoyuan said again: "Up to the head of the family and the elders, down to all the people, rewards and punishments, this patriarchal law is clearly explained!"

At this time, Lin You took out a thin book from the space, stepped forward and handed it to Zong Zhujie, and said: "Old man, this is what Zhuo Yuan said about the patriarchal law, but everything is difficult at the beginning, this family has a big business, just the beginning and end of this first step, it is very nerve-wracking, this rod goes down, and there is a gap in power in many positions, which is also a problem!"

Zong Zhujie took the so-called patriarchal booklet handed by Lin You, put it lightly on the side of the desk, and said: "No matter how difficult it is, I must continue to carry it out! While I haven't crossed the catastrophe yet, within two years, I must let Yuan'er sit firmly in the position of the head of this sect!"

Speaking of this, his brows furrowed slightly, his eyes widened, his face was full of majesty, and he had the air of a king.
