Chapter 120 Literacy?

"Your Majesty, this cement road is flat and smooth, and the carriage walks on it without a trace of bumps. It's amazing!"

Yang Siyi said quickly.

"Um?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

"What are we asking you to see these workers?"

"Worker?"

Yang Siyi's old face turned red, and he quickly stared at the passing workers carefully. After a while, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

"Your Majesty, these workers have a thriving smile on their faces, without a trace of unwilling sorrow! But how is this possible?"

"You will know just by asking!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the corner of his mouth, showed a smile, and casually called for a worker passing by.

"This fellow villager, can you ask a few questions?"

"If you have anything to do with the two masters, please give me instructions!"

When he saw the clothes and demeanor of Zhu Yuanzhang and Yang Siyi, the workers who were intercepted by Zhu Yuanzhang were stunned and quickly owed the courtesy.

"Look at how you work here, you are still doing so hard and not lazy at all. Why is that?"

"Report to this master, when it comes to this, I have to say that the little real person is kind and righteous!"

When he heard Zhu Yuanzhang ask about this, the intercepted worker gave a thumbs up and his face was full of praise.

"When I work here, I can get eight cents of wages every day, and the most important thing is that young real person, who also manages two meals a day, four steamed buns and one pickled vegetable.

You don’t know that the steamed buns are all steamed buns the size of a fist. As a man like us, three steamed buns are full. Every time we go back, we can bring two steamed buns to the kids at home!

On this day, we can not only support our family, but also earn eight cents. Where can we find such a good job?"

"When I was recruiting people, I heard that Manager Yang had hired more than a thousand workers. These days, the number of workers on the construction site has exceeded more than 2,500! This is because so many people can't be left on the construction site. Otherwise, men in the surrounding villages would probably come.

That’s it. There are many men who want to come in to work every day. Even if you need less wages, you can do it! Unfortunately, the construction site is so big that you really can’t let go of anyone, so that shopkeeper Yang didn’t accept it!”

After saying that, before Yang Siyi could react, the worker bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and others.

"Okay, two masters, the villain is going to work now. Otherwise, the supervisor will see it and will be driven to the construction site if it is not done well. The villain doesn't want to throw away this job!"

Then, the worker picked up the guy and spread his legs. He ran away quickly, for fear of being stopped by Zhu Yuanzhang again.

However, with such skill, there have been several supervisors who have noticed Zhu Yuanzhang and others.

At the beginning, I didn't care much.

After all, at such a large construction site, there are curious men coming here every day.

However, when Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head, a supervisor saw the face.

The supervisor's expression changed slightly. He stared at Zhu Yuanzhang for a while, and his face was full of excitement. He limped towards Chu Nan in the distance!

"General!"

"Sangui, what happened?"

Chu Nan asked in confusion.

"General, the villain seems to have seen the emperor!"

Sangui took a breath, calmed down, approached Chu Nan slightly and whispered.

"emperor?"

Chu Nan was also shocked and asked quickly: "Are you sure, is it really the emperor?"

As he said that, he raised his head and looked around.

"General, the villain has also heard of it in the emperor's account earlier. The emperor's hole must remember it well."

Sangui said with certain expression: "However, today the emperor seems to be wearing ordinary clothes!"

"Don't make a name for yourself, take us over and take a look!"

"yes!"

After saying that, Sangui limped and led Chu Nan back.

"What a great emperor!"

Before he got close, Chu Nan said excitedly.

"Good boy, let's remember you for your great contribution today!"

"Thank you, General!"

Sangui's face was happy and he laughed.

As he said that, the two of them quickly accelerated their pace and soon came to Zhu Yuanzhang.

For these, Zhu Yuanzhang and Yang Siyi noticed them very early.

Moreover, before Chu Nan and Sangui approached, Erhu, who was standing beside him, had already surrounded Zhu Yuanzhang with two guards, with a look of vigilance.

"Chu Nan has met the emperor!"

Chu Nan was not dissatisfied with the Second Hu's vigilance. He bowed his hand to salute him three steps away from Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Get up!"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said, "I didn't expect that you, a kid, have gained a lot of weight in just a few days here!"

"Thank you, Emperor Hong Fu, Xiao Zhenren is very kind and righteous. He can eat and drink well every meal!" Chu Nan replied excitedly.

"Are you still used to it here?"

"When I go back to the emperor, here, the little man and others feel that it is useful. In addition, they eat well, drink well, live a bit dignified and used to it!"

Speaking of this, Chu Nan looked satisfied.

"In this way, we're relieved!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said with some emotion.

Then, thinking of something, he pointed at the construction site workers and chuckled, "As the supervisor, you have not bullied and beaten these workers!"

After hearing this, Chu Nan's expression tightened and he hurriedly replied.

"When the emperor, the villain and others have never had such behavior. Moreover, from the beginning, the little real person told the villain and others that they should not beat and scold these workers at will.

Xiao Zhenren is very generous to these workers. Nowadays, there are many workers who can't even get in if they want to come in to work. These workers on the construction site dare not be lazy, for fear of being kicked out.

Therefore, the little people here can only be considered a planner."

"A craftsman?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chu Nan with some confusion, and even Yang Siyi looked at Chu Nan with curiosity.

"When you go back to the emperor, you are registering how many workers are working in the construction book every day, how much food and wages are needed to prepare!"

Chu Nan replied quickly.

"You guys write?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said in surprise.

"Back to the emperor, that's right!"

Speaking of this, Chu Nan was full of excitement, "Every day when he went back, Manager Yang and others would teach the villain to learn and write!"

"All of you?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, his eyes widened, feeling a little disbelief.

In this era, many people are illiterate throughout their lives, and may not even be able to write their own names.

Especially these people in the army, they are all rough men.

Otherwise, there would be no place to settle after being disabled!

"Back to the emperor, it's true that all brothers are literate!"

As he said that, for fear that Zhu Yuanzhang would not believe it, Chu Nan opened the small backpack that was straddled on his shoulder and took out a booklet.

Immediately, he opened the booklet and handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, look, since the villain came here, he has learned more than 300 words! The names on this booklet have been written by the villain!"

“Factory project site log?”

Home page, eight crooked fonts, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and chanted softly.
