Chapter 272 Prodigal things
Qin Chuan sat and spoke. Everyone in the hall was listening carefully. Many people nodded while listening. In the past, Qin Juren arranged for discussions. Everyone pretended to be serious or flattered and flattered. Even if they pretended to be like that, those who were interested could feel fake, but today it was different. Everyone said that everyone was sincerely recognized.
"... The garrison cannot count on it. Not many of them have to gather to protect themselves. The border troops cannot count on it. Even if there are, they are all gathered in Datong City and various border gates. We can only rely on ourselves, but we can only rely on the male and strong women in this city. But we have to use this method. We need to know how much strength our family has and use it to 100% of this strength..."
The Mongolian horses come and go like the wind, and it is hard to match the government army without careful preparation. However, the Mongolian cavalry is strong and there are not many ways to attack the city, or the ordinary city is not worthy of their desperate attack. The officials, gentry, military and civilians in the border town of Daming all understand one truth. Once the Mongolian horses invade, the city is the safest place. Everyone knows that they cannot count on the government army. Once the Mongolian cavalry comes, the government army will first remain as stable as a mountain, and will only dare to act when they gather in a brigade. Moreover, if the government army really comes, the local disaster will not be much better than that of the Mongolians.
The top figures in Huairen County all understood that they could not count on the Guan Jun or any external forces, and could only rely on themselves. Qin Juren was telling them how to better rely on themselves.
The officials, gentry and people in the border towns are not useless. They are much more tough and tougher than the heartland of the Central Plains. They know how to resist when the Mongolian horse team invades, how to block the city gates, and how to organize the people to be strong. From the founding of the Ming Dynasty to the present, common rules have long been formed, but what Qin Juren said was more effective and could mobilize all the forces that the whole city could mobilize.
In addition to the north gate that has been blocked all year round, there are three city gates in the southeast, west and west. If the Tartars really attack, the whole city will be garrisoned. How many people should be placed at each city wall, how many supplies should be provided, and how many equipment should be provided in the city. These are all clearly defined by Qin Chuan's arrangement.
How many people, money, grain and equipment are used in advance. The leaders of three squads and six garrisons and powerful gentry were appointed as leaders, and six areas were divided into six areas in the county. Each area corresponds to the city wall and city gate in one direction, and residents in this area came out to provide people and grain supply.
The advantage of this approach is that it is dedicated to the responsibility and will not shirk each other. In the past, there were any tolerances in the county, which often saw officials and gentry hiding beside each other, and they did not pay for money or food. All of them were burdened by the common people. This is common in the world, but because of this lack of enthusiasm, the world has not worked hard, and this arrangement has also corrected this problem.
"How can there be a complete egg under the collapse of the nest? Everyone understands this principle. If anyone cares about the family and forgets everyone, Qin must preside over justice for the villagers." This is a great saying. After Qin Chuan said that, no matter what he thought, the officials and gentry below all had a sigh of obedience on their faces.
"...... It wouldn't work even if someone else made such a arrangement, but who dared not listen to Mr. Qin? The tiger has also entered the city, and no one wants to suffer in the middle of the night. Besides, this is also for everyone's good..." After the private breakup, there was also such a discussion.
When Qin Chuan was discussing with officials and gentry in the county, he specifically pointed out that most of his plans and arrangements were Zhu Da's suggestions. However, even if you have heard of such statements, he thought that the relationship between the adopted father and the adopted son was really good. On such occasions, his adoptive father would make his adopted son famous, but everyone is not a fool. Such meticulous and so well-organized, how could it be that Zhu Da, a little clever man, could have come up with it?
Not to mention these plans and arrangements, everyone now thinks that behind Zhu Da’s business in Baibao Village was Qin Chuan’s plan. The stolen sales business of buying high and selling low may be the idea of Qin Juren. If you don’t see what Zhu Da was trying to do after coming to Huairen County, you all rely on force to dominate and domineering. Although one city is inside and outside the city, everyone who conveys messages every day just can’t see it.
After the rules were agreed, it was implemented. After the county's population and materials were taken into consideration, even the officials and officers in the three squads and six ranks who claimed to be fine were a little shocked. The county's population was one-fifth more than they knew, and there were about 3,100 people, and there were a total of 1,800 men, and more than 900 women, children, elderly and weak people could be used. The reserves of the official warehouse and private warehouse could be provided for the people of the whole city until March next year.
After the result came out, everyone didn't say anything on the surface, but they had a close relationship in private. If they were to follow the past, they were afraid that the common people in the city would first send out food, and wait for the death to destroy the family and then it would be some backgrounds and the deputy servants in the yamen who were white-handed. After all, they would be rich families. They would be divided into three or six according to their power and fame. In the end, the wealthy families might not lose any losses and would make a profit in purchasing land and houses afterwards. Everyone could think of this ending, so they would not do their best. But once the investigation results were released, no one could hide them, and no one could escape them, so they would have a heart.
"If we want the men to pay money and people based on our responsibilities, we can only arrange this matter."
Everyone understood clearly that it was because Zhu Da led so many people into the city that everyone dared not ignore it. It was difficult to be vague in the past, and now there is no discount.
Because the clothing, food, housing and transportation in the city were arranged well, Zhu Da resumed training the next day after entering the city. The intensity and density of training here were even higher than those outside the city. Because the servants and young soldiers here did not need to take shifts, there was no need to load and unload the supplies transported from the city here, and there was no need to be so many people on duty and patrol at night. Zhu Da didn't want to give the people below any leisure.
The servants, young soldiers, and young refugees, and young and strong refugees, totaling 195 people, were divided into two training places, and they rotated training places every day, that is, they went there and came here.
In addition to training, I have to work for one and a half hours every day to clean up the low-lying areas in the south of the city, where weeds are overgrown and various dirt accumulates. In winter, there is the trouble of soil and garbage being frozen hard, but it also avoids the trouble of sewage flowing, mosquitoes flying around, and stenching.
In addition to Zhu Da's male laborer, he also hired the people in the city to help. Originally, Zhu Da planned to pay all of them with copper coins, but at Fu Yu's suggestion, he bought the old grain from the county warehouse at a low price. He used this to convert the wages. The household houses owed Zhu Da favors, and whoever bought these old grains was not bought, and the account would be smoothed out after a few transactions. The people in Huairen County may not be willing to ask for money. The county is short of supplies, and the grain can be eaten at least. If you don't eat it now, you can use it when you are young and young.
I haven't seen the sky ignited for several days, and the atmosphere in the city quickly relaxed. Even as the Spring Festival approached, I could spend some time, and there was not much fun in the small county town. The people went to work for Zhu Da, and the well-known figures also went to watch the fun.
On the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, there are many people who are watching the fun in the depression in the south of the city. For many people, it is enough to watch the fun here once. When the county recruits civil servants, there are more people than this. However, many people have seen wealthy people come to see it again because the house is Cheng Zhou Gui and Master Zhou came to see it.
Zhou Jingcheng rarely went out in winter in the past. Some time ago, he was a little diligent in the yamen for some time, but later he stayed in the door and didn't even see guests. Of course, everyone had to come over to flatter him when he went out today. Although Qinchuan and Qin Juren arranged everything in an orderly manner, everyone was unsure and unwilling to resist in their hearts. The magistrate and the master could not count on it. This backbone was Mr. Zhou Guizhou...
"Although Zhu Da was born in poverty, he had done business and made money. He was not a nouveau riche who was suddenly rich. How could he spend money so much? The depression in the south of the city is the cottage in Huairen County. What did he do toss?"
Now Zhu Da is leading people in training. There is only Chang Kai in the depression in the south of the city. The Changshen brothers lead the farmhouses in the farmhouse as supervisors. Of course, the farmhouse customers also have to participate in labor. Every time they pick out a basket of dirty soil or something, they will get a chip from them, and then they can use the chips to exchange for rewards.
The onlookers were on the other side. Although everyone was working in three classes and six rooms, in the understanding of the county yamen officials and servants, the Chang brothers were outsiders, and everyone deliberately lowered their voices when they were talking.
"This piece of land is for nothing, but you can calculate how much money he spent on it. Not to mention the money and grain of the hiring and how much money the iron tools for digging and digging holes will cost, Lao Zhang's family has a good business."
If you want to break up and transport the frozen dirty garbage, you can only use shovels, picks and irons to fight hard. These are all real money. Zhu Da is really willing to do so. He sets rules with the blacksmith shop of the old Zhang family. Those who are bad can be repaired at any time, and those who cannot be repaired can be replaced with new ones. This is a lot of money.
When the construction started, the residents in the city who came to work were reluctant to use it, and more people wanted to hide it secretly, but the Chang brothers and their confidants couldn't get sand in the eyes. Besides, it was not that easy to hide such a large farm tool.
The people who came to work felt distressed, and the civil servants who knew the prices and accounts had more detailed plans, but no matter how they calculated, they thought it was purely a loss of money. Everyone thought that it was burned with more money, and they would sneer at the opportunity, because suddenly there were two mountains of Qin Juren and Zhu Da on their heads. Everyone was very depressed, so they were even more ridiculed. Although some older people thought that no one could do a loss of money, let alone a shrewd person like Zhu Da. Even if Zhu Da was a fool, then Master Qin was very smart.
Everyone said everything they said to Zhou Jingcheng Zhou Gui. Of course, the people who spoke understood that Zhou Gui was well-informed. They said that these were to show their own position and create an atmosphere of unity against the enemy.
