Hu Laosan relaxed and was deeply touched upon hearing this.
Being able to be exempted from rent means that everything grown on the land belongs to the tenants themselves. This is extremely powerful!
"master!"
"Hello, sir!"
The tenants I met on the road all respected Ren Pingsheng.
It's not the kind of fearful awe, but respect from the heart.
"Yesterday, Wujiazhuang was captured by living corpses. The entire farm, with more than a dozen households and more than 80 people, were all eaten by living corpses!
We people in Zhuangzi are all praising you for letting us build the adobe wall. The sight of the four-meter-high wall makes people feel at ease and makes them sleep more soundly at night."
Hu Laosan said with emotion.
Ren Pingsheng nodded and said: "We cannot be superstitious about high walls, and the militia must continue to train. This is an important part of protecting the property."
First there was a winter job, each person paid 10 cents a day and had to take care of two meals.
"My name is Liu Goudan."
"good."
From studying to eating, from eating to daily life, from living to starting a family and starting a business in the future.
Dalu was sent outside Qingcheng Town and went to the official road to select people from the refugee team.
"Good name."
Zhou Ming was due to change his shift at the end of the week and had already left with Dalu with his four people, returning to Tenglong Mountain together in the evening.
"What are your names?"
He took a branch and stamped his name on the ground crookedly, with the word "egg" written wrong.
Hu Dahai said.
After leaving Renjiazhuang, Ren Pingsheng returned to Qingcheng Town.
"It was quite cold a few days ago, but the pomegranate tree has sprouted buds in the past two days. It seems that the weather is really starting to get warm.
"You're back? Where are you now?"
"How many words do you know?"
Don't think that learning is useless. Maybe it is not of much use to you now, but if you are promoted to become an official in the future, you will need to read and write a lot of things. You can read and write letters, teach your subordinates, and issue military orders.
Which one doesn’t require literacy?”
Ren Pingsheng came out with a book and went to the pomegranate tree to take a look. Sure enough, there were some green leaf buds protruding on the branches.
With the carpenter, a large water truck has been installed in the river outside the village. When the fields are irrigated in a few days, water can be diverted into the ditch. There is no need to carry buckets of water.
Ren Pingsheng took a branch and scratched out his "egg", and neatly wrote a correct "egg" from the side.
"Don't wait to learn it when you go back. You should learn it while you are still in the government. When you go back, I will give you a dictionary and you can learn from it.
"Yes, I will definitely learn it when I go back."
"My name is Hu Dahai, and I am the leader of one of the three teams."
"I..." Huang Goudan scratched his head: "I can write my own name."
The current life can be said to be the most comfortable and best in the past few years. Moreover, everyone has some expectations and hopes for the future life.
Hu Laosan responded.
And this expectation and hope are all brought by this Master Ren.
"I learned more than three hundred."
Huzi replied: "I'm still in the quarantine area outside now. I gave a few pennies to a person who has just been quarantined to come in and report to us in advance."
Ren Pingsheng asked in surprise.
Siqi responded, took the money from Xiaowan, and hurried out.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Shu led a team and came in from outside the city covered in dust.
Xiaowan, who returned from delivering the dictionary, looked at the pomegranate tree in the yard and shouted.
Ren Pingsheng suppressed his laughter.
Days like this were something I couldn't even imagine before.
Therefore, this prestige has naturally penetrated into the hearts of every farmer, and the respect shown in the eyes also comes from the heart.
Huang Goudan said with his head drooped.
"Yes, the master is right."
I don’t know whether the flowers on this pomegranate tree are red or white.”
"My name is Zhang Gouzi."
Although the teenagers are young, they are all veterans who participated in the Battle of Tenglong Mountain and have seen blood. They have also seen the feat of their boss using flying arrows and killing people with a backhand shot, so they also have great respect for their boss.
Now after one winter, not only does every family have a lot of spare money, but each body has also become much stronger.
The benefits are not limited to these. There are blacksmiths, sledges, rakes, iron picks, iron pots, etc. in the village, which are all cheaper than outside, and people with extra money can afford them.
"good."
The scale in the hearts of the common people is sensitive. There is a weight on it, and they will naturally react when there is a comparison.
"I have more than two hundred."
Sometimes the eyes of the teenagers were red, and sometimes they laughed. When the quarantine was over and they entered the city, the eyes of the teenagers when they looked at the carriage had become very friendly. Everyone held their heads high and were full of sunshine and confidence.
Moreover, every meal was full of oil and water.
When they arrived at Ren Mansion, Ren Pingsheng asked Xiao Wan to go to the front yard and gave Huang Gouzi a dictionary. Huang Gouzi, who got the dictionary, regarded it as a treasure, and others were reluctant to take a look at it. He took it out every day to read it.
He suddenly became the most literate among this group of teenagers!
"Master, the pomegranate tree in the yard has sprouted."
In general, he has great respect for Mr. Ren. Not only because of the high wall, the tenants in Zhuangzi also feel it very clearly. Whether it is a vertical comparison or a horizontal comparison, since Zhuangzi changed his surname from Huang to Ren, people have
They all live much richer than before.
"Yang Goudan, you can't do this. You are all my earliest batch, and you will definitely be reused in the future. If you don't know how to read, your development will be delayed."
"Siqi, go to the kitchen and give instructions to prepare a table of dishes tonight... Forget it, go to the Sihai Building and book some fine private rooms, and we'll take care of them tonight."
There was nothing else to do in this quarantine area. He chatted with his teenagers like friends.
After closing the book in their hands, the master and the servant were about to go to the backyard to see if the crabapple tree had sprouted, when Huzi suddenly ran in and shouted with surprise on his face: "Master, Sister Xiaowan
, Manager Liu Shu and the others are back!"
Ren Pingsheng asked, holding a branch and scratching it on the ground.
You make money without spending any money!
There are four people, and three of them have the word "dog" in their names. At this time, it is easy to make a living with cheap names, and ordinary people are uneducated and cannot come up with any nice names, but the homogeneity of names is too great!
"Master!"
In the quarantine area, Ren Pingsheng squatted on the ground and chatted with these four simple teenagers.
"My name is Huang Goudan."
"I know more than five hundred words."
"Thin!"
Ren Pingsheng looked at Liu Shu, stretched out his hand and gently patted the dust on Liu Shu's body.
In the past, he always liked to be clean. Even if his clothes were shabby, they were always spotless.
When I came back this time, not only did my face look weathered, but my whole face looked tired. Even my body was covered with dust. It seemed that I had lived a rough life living outside in the open air.
