Chapter 372 Downhill

Chapter 372 Down the Mountain

"This brother, now a new village has been established at the foot of the mountain. As long as you go down the mountain to work, you can not only provide you with work.

And there is a lot of barren land, and the court will give you farm tools. The court will not collect land taxes for the first year, and two floors will be collected in the second year, and only three floors will be collected in the future..."

At this moment, a young man from the agricultural society persuaded a strong man with a kind face.

"Bang!" When I saw the strong man's door, I was directly closed with no hesitation.

The young man was helpless. He came to Wang Zhenru and said, "Wang Gongcao, those who are willing to go down the mountain in this village basically went to the village at the foot of the mountain to collect the house and the compensation for the relocation of the village.

And the remaining people have fields and land here, and are used to the life here, and really don’t want to move on!"

"You've done a good job, please don't worry," Wang Zhenru nodded, "Today is the deadline. I'll count the remaining people and give the household registration to the bad people. We don't have much time to spend here!"

"Okay!" Zhang Zixiu looked helpless when he heard Wang Zhenru's words.

At this moment, he could only count the data in his hands and then hand over the data to Wei Xu.

Wei Xu's men all had fat faces or were disability and fearful, and they engraved the four words "I am a bad person" on their faces, making people feel quite lethal.

"Wang Gongcao, I'll try it again!" Zhang Zixiu looked at the bad guy brought by Wei Xu, almost literally interpreting the meaning of bad guys, but he couldn't help but feel a bit of instinctive fear and turned his head.

Seeing Wang Zhenru fighting for another sentence.

This seems to give these people a sense of hope, and more importantly, it is hope that they can feel less guilty.

Wang Zhenru shook his head and said, "We have completed our mission, and we will hand it over to Wei Xu and the others next!

If you want to clean up the people on the mountain in the shortest time, it will not escape the use of violence."

Wei Xu took the household registration brought by Zhang Zixiu and looked at it,

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect there were so many people. Is it half still there? Real Ruji really worked hard?"

"Put down the young and strong people in the village who want to develop downward, so that they know that the compensation given to them has not deceived them.

With them taking the lead, those who are interested will basically go down the mountain, thus reducing the left-behind people in the village on the mountain!”

Wang Zhenru looked at Wei Xu and said, "This way it will be much more convenient for you to move!"

"Okay!" Wei Xu nodded when he heard Wang Zhenru's words, "It's considered to be your favor!"

"Don't let anyone die!" Wang Zhenru looked at Wei Xu and said solemnly.

"Although the King of Wei allows you to drive the people down the mountain by forcibly, he will never allow you to cause death!"

"Don't worry, King Wei, I know no less than you!" Wei Xu thought,

"I will choose a day, find an excuse to find someone to perform on the hillside, and after watching it, I will give eggs according to the head of the person, and the baby will be counted as well!

In this way, most people will pass by, and there are no people in the village, so I set fire to each house.

There is something that burned all the fire. By the way, you can make compensation and leave these people with nothing to say!”

"I will compensate, but it is based on the area of ​​the house. I will not compensate if there is anything inside.

After all, these operations will become standards, so their treatment will be slightly worse than the first group of people!" Wang Zhenru said seriously,

"If people who are willing to cooperate get more than those who break the rules, more people will abide by the rules set by the King of Wei!"

"I know!" Wei Xu nodded as Wang Zhenru said, "I will handle the follow-up. If anyone wants to stay, I will lay salt on the land they have cultivated in front of them!"

When Wang Zhenru heard Wei Xu's words, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Obviously, it is really that these people are afraid that they are not going to fight Wei Xu’s life, but even if they work hard, this policy must be implemented.

Because I was born in an agricultural institution, the saying that if salt is applied, the land will not grow in no grass.

However, too high salt concentration will really affect crop planting, but it is very easy to solve it.

Scrape the layer of soil on top, then rinse it with water, and get some soil from other places to cover it for a year. Although you can't plant crops, there is definitely no problem in planting weeds. In this way, you can basically do it again in the second year.

It is used to grow crops.

It is almost impossible to use salt to change the living environment in a place, after all, the salt required is absolutely a huge amount.

And you have to pray to God that it will not rain, otherwise the rain will wash away the food and basically cannot grow, but weeds can grow in the end.

And as long as weeds can grow, the nature of the land will eventually return slowly.

Nature sometimes looks very fragile, but sometimes looks very powerful.

But for the local people, under such operations, they had almost no capital to confront the imperial court.

There is no way, the capital they have is too weak. They are the poorest people in today's society.

Their houses were burned and the land was salted, and they had no capital to keep them alive for winter.

So if they want to survive, they can only go down the mountain, and then follow the corvee workers to do simple mechanical labor, live in the houses of the warm pit, wear white cotton coats, and be wrapped in the times and integrated into their new life.

In short, whether to survive or destroy, what will happen to them in the end is ultimately the final choice they make.

Wang Zhenru stopped saying anything, returned to the foot of the mountain and began to help these people who had already gone down the mountain integrate into the life of the new village.

To be honest, although Li Tai made the forced relocation of these planned roads through the area in order to build his high-speed carriage roads, it really felt a bit difficult.

But Li Tai did not inhumane, but asked Wang Zhenru to first let the corvee workers build a village, and various supporting facilities entered the village. Then Wang Zhenru began to go to one mountain and one mountain to coerce and lure the people down the mountain.

Fortunately, this was in ancient times. If this kind of thing was exposed in modern times, it would probably be seriously condemned.

As for the ancient times, this matter was big or small. The most important reason was that these people were people who did not pay taxes on the mountain. Even if they were considered farmers, they basically would not.

Under any protection.

Now that Wei Xu and Wang Zhenru have joined forces, at least these people have been re-introduced into the government system.

So to be honest, although Wang Zhenru and Wei Xu and others coerced and tempted, set fire to the house and spread salt to the fields, they had made contributions to the court.

Even by virtue of them, they really built a village of four or five thousand people, the contribution was not small.

Of course, if you know this, you will definitely be more or less morally condemned, after all, this job is too inhumane.

However, the dirty work is mainly done by Wei Xu. Wei Xu said that as long as he has no morality, he will still be happy.

Soon after about three or four days, Wang Zhenru helped the local people to integrate into their new life as quickly as possible.

Although these people work hard, they are all just simple physical work, and they have food to eat after they finish it, and even settle with Kaiyuan Tongbao according to the temporary work standards that day, so they are still very motivated.

To be honest, these people saw that they could not only have a meal after finishing their work, but also really had money to get it. They felt that their decision to go down the mountain was right!

At this time, as Wei Xu set fire to the house, the people who could not stay on the mountain began to go down the mountain one after another.

Because the people who came to this village first had been around for about a month, and the shortest time was around a week, they were at least more or less familiar with the survival mode of this village.

Now these people come from the mountains, they are related to the people who come down first.

For example, the tough guy who rejected Zhang Zixiu was so tough that he held his arm with a bruised nose and swollen face. He buzzed and shouted:

"Uncle Hu, are you here? Uncle Hu!"

Soon the house was opened, and it turned out to be a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man looked at the tough guy and couldn't help but wonder,

"Erniu, didn't you say you were guarding the fields on the mountain? Why did you look like this? Come in quickly!"

"Uncle Hu! That court is not a human being!" Erniu followed Uncle Hu into the house and couldn't help crying.

That was crying loudly, Erniu said when he saw his relatives,

"They not only burned the houses in the village, but also spread salt in the fields, and even threatened that if they didn't go down the mountain, they would set fire to the mountain below!

There were a few people in the village, but they even had a conflict with them!"

"Hey, this matter is a mess!" Uncle Hu could think of the scene when he heard Erniu's words, "Is anyone injured?"

Erniu said: "These people are all disabled, but they are all very skilled. They are attacking the vicious ones.

One of them came specifically at the bones of the villagers. I was dislocated when he touched his hand!”

"How are the people in the village?" Uncle Hu couldn't help but say worriedly.

"They took the doctor to walk and were cured by the doctor's walk!" Erniu said.

"That's good, indeed, the people in the court will not mess around!" Uncle Hu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"After connecting the bones, I asked me if I wanted to go down the mountain. I said rudely, no."

"Then why are you now..." Uncle Hu was a little unresponsive when he heard Erniu's words.

"The man rushed over again and dislocated my arm again." Erniu said helplessly again,

"Then the doctor walked and picked me up again, and came over and asked if I wanted to go down the mountain... I had to go down the mountain!"

When Uncle Hu heard Erniu's words, he couldn't help but squint his eyes. He could even think about it and know how painful it hurts.

"It's good to come down!" Uncle Hu heard Erniu's words and said, "You go to the village chief to apply for a house tomorrow.

These days I will live with Uncle Hu to recuperate. When you apply for a house, you will settle down in the village!"

"Is the same house as Uncle Hu?" Erniu also looked at the house, especially the warm kang he was sitting on. Although it was winter, it was not cold at all!

Uncle Hu heard Erniu's words and said, "You're late."

This kind of house that is close to the boiler room or shares heating with the corvee workers has long been taken away by the people who came down first.

The best place for these houses is to provide heating with the imperial court. You don’t need to burn the fire by yourself, it’s cheap!

If you apply now, the only house you can apply for is burned with coal!"

"Burn with coal? It's very expensive!" Erniu's face changed when he heard this.

"If you buy it yourself, it will cost 20 to 30 cents per catty, which is really not cheap.

But as long as you work diligently, you will leave some for you every day in the future.

Then you can pick up some branches and heat the kang up!”

Uncle Hu was very proud of this, after all, he was the one who took the initiative to go down the mountain.

The imperial court made arrangements for these people who took the initiative to go down the mountain, at least they got a lot of cheapness.

On the surface, I seem to be treated similarly to those villagers who are going down the mountain now, but the difference in some hidden benefits is quite large.

For example, the heating kang in the house is for heating in the public, and for example, if you want to reclaim the land, the court will rent iron and agricultural tools.

Even when I work for the corvee workers, I know that I have entered the inspection period. As long as I pass, I can become a formal contract worker with a staffing and enjoy formal corvee treatment at that time.

Don’t say that the court will hand out two cotton jackets for work in the middle of winter, which are used for work in the winter. At the same time, as long as the work gloves are broken and taken back to exchange, they will basically be exchanged for you.

Not to mention, as long as you are willing to work, you will be guaranteed three meals a day, and even occasionally there will be meat, so you will eat the meat several times!

When I was on the mountain, I didn't dare to think about these things.

But now there are so many benefits to working with corvee workers, and I still think about what to do in those hard days on the mountain.

This is simply paradise!

"Stay here well and work hard. You will have what you have on the mountain, and you will have what you don't have on the mountain, and you will have what you don't have on the mountain!"

Uncle Hu said and patted Erniu on the shoulder and said, "Wang Gongcao is a good official. It is not easy to meet a good official. If you meet, work hard.

At the beginning, it was the chaos in the world that fled to the mountain, but now the world is peaceful. If you don’t go down the mountain this time, you will be afraid that you will really not be able to go down in the future!”

"Oh!" Erniu nodded in a vague way when he heard Uncle Hu's words.

No matter what, if I could have a house here and live in this village, I would have barely accepted it.

What if you don’t accept it? The village that carries his past has been burned by Wei Xu and the bad guys!

Regardless of whether these people who came down from the mountain were willing or unwilling, at least they could no longer go back.

And humans are not creatures that have always lived in the past. As long as they can survive, no matter whether they are willing or not, they still have to look forward slowly.

"Sure enough, there are still many people, but they are not within the scope of the court's statistics!" Li Tai couldn't help but murmur as he saw a small village built at the foot of Songshan Mountain.
