Judging from the feedback, the enrollment situation in Xinzheng is pretty good. There are many "travelers" and children of old aristocratic families who are willing to go south. Those who are still hesitant are mostly natives of the Zheng State. In addition, people like Yan State, Qi State, etc.
Many scholars in countries like ours have given up.
Selected "Drop out".
In Commissioner Li's case, it is okay to drop out of school, but not to refund tuition fees.
However, it is obvious that these guys are not people who care about tuition fees. They concentrate on "study" in Xinzheng. Basically, it is just a cover.
"Dong, how's the probing going?"
Commissioner Li found Sha Dong, who looked disappointed, and was a little surprised, "What? No?"
"..."
After a moment of silence, Sha Dong looked at Li Jie and said, "Far inferior to Fu and Tan."
After a pause, Sha Dong vomited in his heart: garbage.
When it comes to conventional skills, such as driving a car, riding a horse, dancing a sword, using a crossbow, and reading...these "scholars" are really good at it, and their quality is absolutely high.
But probably because they were all mixed together, there was a lot of feud between them.
Lagging behind is simply the norm, which makes Shadong astonished.
This kind of thing is a dead end when compared with Qiubei Liuying.
"It doesn't matter. They're going to be tortured to death anyway. It feels good to press them to the ground and rub them."
"yes!"
Sha Dong, who cheered up, had more reasons to train the illiterate people. After all, he was also an illiterate person.
Each of these "scholars" are considered "respectable" in their respective countries, so it is very likely that they will not be able to deal with illiterate people in the same way.
Furthermore, Sha Dong still had to select a group of people.
The boss also needs to use a group of people to manage slaves, slave workers and even farms of various sizes. This group of people are tool people and are used as batteries.
Among the remaining people, Sha Dong will select some of the more crazy but actually stupid ones, give them lessons, and then stay in Huaizhong City to eat rice.
The millet from Shanxi is not as delicious as the rice from Huaibei, right?
How to rub against those arrogant people is not Commissioner Li's concern.
Recently, I felt a little tired of listening to people playing the flute, so Commissioner Li decided to do some extracurricular activities, such as recruiting some talents for his own use.
He looks down upon the educated people in Xinzheng. Even if you are well-educated, you are still at the lower-middle level of the nine-year compulsory education system.
As for letting him select the elites, he doesn't have the time to spare. Zheng Guoren has also been thinking about it recently, and he is wondering whether this big idiot from the Wu Kingdom will welcome Dr. Cai.
Come to greet them?
Commissioner Li said that these guys are just thinking about eating peaches.
What really interests Commissioner Li about Xinzheng is the local craftsmen, especially the carpenters, who are quite good.
Although there are not as many types of woodworking tools as Jiangyin City, there is quite developed woodworking technology. Just looking at the complexity of the palaces in Xinzheng, we can know the level gap.
Local craftsmen's guilds are relatively developed due to the tradition of "craftsmen" hundreds of years ago. However, with the development of other countries, the status of craftsmen has declined.
The craftsmen of Xinzheng are naturally no exception.
But this time, Commissioner Li plans to recruit a group of Xinzheng craftsmen to go south.
Next year's construction of Huaizhong City will involve so much work and business that it makes my head spin just thinking about it.
To initially transfer a batch of handicraft industries from Jiangyin City, the preliminary supporting work is a big project.
For example, in sericulture, the production of new silkworm houses alone takes up a considerable amount of labor.
Another example is the hydraulic spinning wheel and the hydraulic doubling wheel, which also require a considerable number of carpenters.
The training of craftsmen is a very boring and tedious process, and traditional craftsmen attach great importance to their "core skills" and rarely share them easily.
How many small foremen Li Jie wants to get from the local Wu country who sincerely clock in to work, and he can only guess the result with a horse's eye.
After much thought, it is most convenient to buy slaves.
The wealthy families of various countries have slave workers, and some of them have quite high technical status.
What Li Jie was thinking about was to package and buy a group of craftsmen, and then give them freedom and private property so that they would not become other people's vassals or other people's property.
It is normal to draw a big pie and let people digest it slowly.
"Alas, I have also fallen into depravity if I don't do my proper work and come here instead of doing my proper work."
Commissioner Li sighed with emotion, expecting on the carriage that whether it was a beauty from the Wei family or a princess from the Wei Kingdom, she would hurry up and let him inspect the goods.
Don't worry, he's a little tired now. No matter how beautiful the wind instruments are, they'll get boring if you listen to them too much.
Passing by a mansion, Li Jie was stunned: "Does Mr. Yunzhen live here?"
"yes!"
Commissioner Li saw Jin's carriages and horses outside, and servants in Jin costumes waiting at the carriages and horses.
"Do you recognize that symbol?"
"Looking back at Li, if I remember correctly, it should be the Xu clan crest of the Jin Dynasty."
The Xu family's "coat of arms" is a flower surrounded by auspicious clouds. The flower is rather abstract and I don't know what kind of flower it is, but it should be from the Brassicaceae family.
The black "coat of arms" is painted on the carriage like this, but it is still vivid and very recognizable.
After Commissioner Li's carriage passed by, he then said: "Let's go and find out who from Jin State visited Lao Yunzhen."
"yes!"
The crocodile man next to the coachman jumped down from the carriage, then walked as fast as flying, and went directly to the door to ask the guards about their situation.
Not long after, the crocodile man trotted back, grabbed the guardrail and jumped onto the carriage. After calming his breathing for a while, he explained to Li: "The first Li is Xu Fei and Wei Yu of the Jin Dynasty. They are visiting Yunzhenlu."
"Oh? The Wei family is much more active. When did the Xu family appear?"
"I came here from Hulao prison five days ago."
"Um……"
Li Jie nodded, feeling that the Jin Kingdom was really interesting. Without making any noise, a family came to Yunzhenlu.
However, he was too lazy to inquire about the details. With Yun Zhenluo's habits, various explanations and reports would be sent to his desk in the evening.
I have found the largest "philistine" in Xinzheng, the kind without establishment, and are private entrepreneurs. In the population market, they have a wide range of people.
I heard that the beasts from the Wu Kingdom came to buy skilled slaves. In the professional spirit of earning a little in winter, they sold more than two hundred slave workers of different ages to Li Jie in one go.
The origin is complex. In addition to losers and unlucky people from various countries, there are even barbarians, such as the "烃狁" people and the Yiqu people.
Li Jie didn't pick and choose, he took it all in one go, leaving a cart of "Wu Jin" behind, and left the population market in a hurry amid the laughter of "philistines".
These slave workers, in a daze, got on the bullock cart and headed to the school field outside the city.
There, there are more perfect heating conditions.
What's more, slave workers here at Li Jie also have to pay attention to hygiene.
After washing and peeling, do not cut into the meat if it is fat, or cut into the meat if it is thin. It is necessary to carry out pre-job ideological education and pre-job skills training. In a word, start from scratch... so not a hair is left, and you have to guard against lice.
.
After a day of idle work and more than two hundred slave laborers, I returned to my residence and received a report from Yun Zhenlu.
Continuing to look through the documents written by Yun Zhenlu without any business, Commissioner Li felt more and more strange as he read: "This Wei Yu, Xu Fei, such a talented person, I want it."
