Chapter 750

Forbidden City, Yonghe Palace.

This is Zhao Fujin's residence. The small courtyard is named a palace, which is ridiculous to say.But as soon as he thought of the name of the palace, Zhao Fujin felt that he would be satisfied even if he lived only three feet away.

Today she came back from Xiyuan, entered the back room, and then removed the sweet smile from her face.Lying softly on the bed, his whole body was filled with fatigue.The aunt and maid next to her were so panicked that they almost wanted to call a doctor for her. How could Zhao Fujin agree? Didn't he know that he would offend Wu?

Pretending to rest, I lay on the couch but couldn't fall asleep.

This morning all the concubines in the palace came to Fang Jinzhi to say hello, and then were led by the queen to Xiyuan to see Wu Shi and the newborn little prince.As for the mighty group of people, most of the morning has passed in such a flash.Zhao Fujin was pregnant, and her body was no better than that of Dalibo who was wielding knives and guns. She was really tired.But just can't sleep.As soon as she closed her eyes, what flashed through her mind was Fang Jinzhi's empress uniform.

But that's not the point, the point is the little Lu Wan next to Fang Jinzhi who is dressed like the Fuwa in the New Year painting.Because Fang Jinzhi was from Shezhou, and the latter was in the later Anhui Province, her son was named Lu Wan.Just over two years old this year, white and fat, with big eyes as bright as black pearls, and a pair of small dimples revealed by a smile, it is really lovely.

Zhao Fujin suddenly felt that he also wanted a son, such a cute, beautiful and healthy son.

She has been beautiful since she was a child, so she has been favored by great artists, who have repeatedly joked about finding a husband for her.Zhao Fujin had had a crimson dream more than once. Marrying a gentle and talented husband, the couple would be as close as each other, and they would give birth to one or two pairs of lovely children. Then she would really have nothing else to do in her life. All you asked for.But the reality is so cruel...

Ever since she was a child, she had seen the smiling faces of great artists, which she rarely encountered many times.

"Bring me a cloak. I want to sit at Sister Yelu's place." Hug together to keep warm.Zhao Fujin and Da Libo have similar identities, but their status is awkward, and their levels are evenly matched. They are at the bottom of the upper food chain in the entire palace. If they don't stick together for warmth, wouldn't there be no one to say good things to them when they are in trouble?

She couldn't calm down all the time, and she only took a few mouthfuls of lunch, and let the maid beside her eat some.Otherwise, the words will be passed on by others: Concubine Wu Gui of Xiyuan gave birth to a dragon son, and Concubine Zhao of Yonghe Palace looks sad and unhappy.If the words were to reach her ears, Zhao Fujin didn't dare to expect them not to care at all.

In this small harem, her status was even lower than that of Dalibo.

Wearing a purple cloud brocade velvet jacket and a pleated skirt, a yellow palace ribbon with long butterfly tassels was tightly tied around the waist, and a white fox fur-lined cloak embroidered with butterfly flowers was put on, Zhao Fujin held it in his hands Also holding a heater.Unfortunately, snow has fallen in the Central Plains, and the weather in September this year is already very cold.

Therefore, by the end of the year, the progress of major projects under the Ministry of Industry this winter failed to meet the expected goals.

"Clang clang clang..."

In the cold wind, the bronze bell on the bell tower was rang vigorously.A string of melodious bells spread far from the bell tower, which is a characteristic of Shanghai and Hong Kong. The bell tower is set up, and the bells are rung whenever the hour and time are reached.It can be said that the traditional Chinese "morning bell and evening drum" has been carried forward by Gengjia.This kind of behavior spread like a wind all over the country, and it really made a splash.

This bell tower not only facilitates the construction site, but also facilitates countless merchants at the dock.From the bell tower to different sites, from different factories to different construction sites, from the big copper bell to the small iron bell, and then from the small bell to the gongs and whistles everywhere.

"It's time, it's time to get off work, it's time to get off work..."

Shouts with different meanings sounded in different construction sites, on different occasions, and in the ears of people with different identities.

"Eat, rest, rest..."

The emperor is not bad for hungry soldiers.Although many of the laborers on the construction sites in Shanghai and Hong Kong were prisoners of war and prisoners converted into labor camps, labor camp prisoners are also human beings, and they are not alien slaves.What's more, there are a large number of craftsmen and officials under the Ministry of Industry.

The laborers who had worked for five full hours let out a long sigh of relief, but they got up at the right time [six o'clock], had breakfast, and went to work at the beginning of the morning [seven o'clock], and the next job would take two and a half hours. !
Yes, they eat well and have enough to eat. They also get enough sleep and good sleeping conditions.When it comes to basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation, many people outside are afraid that they will not be able to compare with them.But it also depends on what kind of work they do, right?

Soaking in the mud, or wading in the bitter sea, doing this kind of hard work when the sky is snowing, if they can't eat, make clothes, wear warm and sleep well, then the only way is to rebel.

This morning is over again, and then they will have a whole afternoon of rest.In addition to having a full meal, everyone can also sleep comfortably in the warm quilt.Or sit around the stove, chat and fart, and even use your points to exchange for some food, whether it's wine or that kind of salty dried fish.

The half-day working system is the working system in Shanghai and Hong Kong in winter. There is no choice but to do it. The weather is too cold and the water is too cold.

The Ministry of Industry's overall plan for Shanghai and Hong Kong simply involves dredging waterways and building seawalls.Turning what was once a swamp into fertile soil is so much work that it's almost impossible to accomplish in this day and age.Therefore, Emperor Lu's request was to divide the future Magic City into two halves, and the eastern area near the sea must not affect the western area along the Wusong River.

Now every day they get up at [-] o'clock, wash and dress, and a quarter of an hour later they gather at the camp's school grounds to run exercises.After exercising, it’s time to open the kitchen door.Mixed-noodle steamed buns, multi-grain pancakes and rice dumplings with vegetables are the staple foods, as well as salted fish soup, rice porridge, and pickles.This is the basic food configuration prepared for workers on the construction site.

In the past year, at least 10 people have flocked to Shanghai and Hong Kong. Among them are farmers who have 'leased' land, businessmen and young people who want to come to this emerging port city, but there are indispensable ones. They are Dan people whose families live near the river.

The origins of the Dan people are far away and cannot be verified. Some are said to be descendants of the Minyue people who were destroyed by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty; others claim that their ancestors are the remnants of Sun En and Lu Xun's army who fled the sea after the Tianshi Dao uprising failed during the Eastern Jin Dynasty; or they are traced to their ancestors. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Shenzhi entered Fujian and the Fujian aborigines were deprived of their fields and driven into the water...

These people were still regarded as untouchables during the Zhao and Song Dynasties.However, they are all the best sailors, and now they have become the meat baskets of tens of thousands of laborers on the Shanghai and Hong Kong construction sites.

The river fish they catch every day, no matter how big or small, are sent to the construction site.The latter is like a bottomless pit that never bottoms out, devouring boat after boat of fish.

To put it bluntly, the labor reform prisoners on the Shanghai-Hong Kong construction site almost vomited after eating fish and meat.No matter how delicious the food is, sometimes you will get tired of eating it every day, not to mention that it is just boiled fish with some spices?
grease?Of course there is.But frying and cooking cannot be done by everyone every day.

Those who perform well among the laborers will also be rewarded, such as eggs, duck eggs, or stir-fried dishes and stews that only the supervisors have.This is to mobilize their enthusiasm.

Emperor Lu did not treat them badly in terms of food.They are all heavy manual laborers who only care about food and drink. The workers here have better food than at least [-]% to [-]% of people in the world today.

As long as they can eat, the construction site will not deprive them of their food.In addition to large and small fish, there must be a meaty meal within five days.In the hearts of all workers, fish and meat are no longer fishy.How could the people there that day be like this even if they had a little more money?Even those who live by the rivers and seas.

Even today, money is a little loose, and there are many people who are reluctant to cut a piece of pork or mutton during the holidays!Therefore, although cheap whale meat is relatively unpalatable, it sells really well.

Reality and time are the two magic weapons that are most likely to wear down one's spirit and heart.These reform-through-labour prisoners from all over the world are by no means all honest and honest. They have even rejected working from the beginning, but their arms can't twist their thighs, can't they?If you don't want to be hungry, you can only be obedient.It's like a "common saying" in the hometown of Emperor Lu of later generations-if you are beaten to death, you will not do it, if you can't be beaten to death, you will do it.

Human beings are real animals, and no matter how intense the initial resistance was, it has been turned into soft steel by now.

Their only thought now is to get through their sentence, and then, go home and become Lu Qi's obedient citizens.From now on, they will never dare to commit crimes again.

And from time to time, use the beautiful and harmonious feudal society as bait—this is the carrot that fell in front of the donkey’s mouth. With a hopeful tomorrow, let these coolies who were transformed from labor camps work honestly for Lu Qi.

The aroma of meat spread to Zhou Maosheng's nose. Zhou Maosheng didn't know if his nose had an illusion. He felt that the aroma of meat today was particularly strong.And it didn't just smell of pork, he also smelled of mutton.It's a pity that the latter is not for them to eat.

Saliva overflowed his mouth reflexively, and Zhou Maosheng was holding a large coarse porcelain bowl, which could be compared to his head in size, and devoured it hungrily.Not to mention Zhou Maosheng's disregard for decency, in this place his renown as a Confucian is not more precious than a piece of meat.

Zhou Maosheng, a native of Daozhou in southern Hunan, is the eldest grandson of the great Confucian Zhou Dunyi.At the beginning, he fled from southern Hunan to Guangnan, organized regiment training, followed Geng Nanzhong to send troops to attack the Nan'an army, and ended up being defeated, he and his younger brother Zhou Maosi were captured on the spot.

At that time, Lu Qi was still "recruiting surrender and recruiting rebels". The brothers Zhou Maosheng and Zhou Maosi were from well-known families and were very worthy of making a fuss.But at that time, the Zhou brothers still had some backbone, so they immediately followed up with their strict words. The Xuanzheng Secretary did not even annihilate the two of them when they arrived. The two stupid idiots were not worthy of the Xuanzheng Secretary's special attack. After that, they were all killed. Throwing Shanghai and Hong Kong is coming.

After time and suffering have smoothed their "integrity", the two brothers wanted to surrender, but there was no way out.Lu Qi is already sitting on the world, and Emperor Lu has gone to play with the Kong family, so how can he care about Zhou Dunyi's grandson?
Both brothers wanted to throw their heads when they mentioned this matter. This matter can be said to be one of the only stupid things in their lives. The other one was that they went to Guangnan to join the Guangnan team training.Looking at the cause and effect of the Zhou brothers, it can only be said: self-inflicted evil cannot live.

Relying on literacy, hyphenation, and arithmetic, the two brothers don't care about their dignity. Now they work as clerks in the labor camp. In addition to recording the progress of the project and the consumption of equipment and materials, the biggest task is to read newspapers and articles. , to preach the law.

To a certain extent, what he does is the most basic level work of the Propaganda Department, and he has no establishment, no status, and no salary of even a copper coin.

A year has passed, and the Zhou brothers have changed from weak scholars to heroes who can catch fish with their hands. Although their positions as clerks make them the lightest group of laborers in the reform-through-labor prison, it does not mean that they are Certainly no physical labor.The only luck is that they have already contacted their family members. Naturally, the life of the latter cannot be compared with before, but relying on their savings and relying on the fact that all the children of the Zhou family can read and write, the life of the Zhou family can still be passed. Go down.Lu Qiyi did not specifically target them.

This also made the Zhou brothers even more annoyed by their original choice.They were really out of their minds, and they would seek their own death at that time.Zhao, Song and Mingming are already on the verge of death...

If they could get out of this construction site, the two brothers dared to swear to heaven and earth and to their ancestors of the Zhou family that they would never go against Lu Qi again.

Just mentioning it brought a handful of bitter tears, and just talking about it could make their whole bodies soak up.

Five years, five years in prison, this is just the first year!
