Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Fan Yonghe frowned.

The convoy moved slowly, getting closer and closer to the refugees.

When the convoy reached the refugees, the refugees automatically retreated from the official road and stood in the dry field.

The refugees watched the convoy passing in front of them blankly.

Fan Yonghe stopped suddenly. He remembered what Fan Zheng had said to him before leaving, so he stopped by the roadside with a few servants.

"Go straight to the east, and when you reach Datong, you will have a way to survive."

As soon as Fan Yonghe finished speaking, the refugees began to commotion.

"Master, is what you said true?" A young man looked at Fan Yonghe with a tired face.

"Why am I lying to you? Go all the way to the northeast. After reaching Datong, you will have a way to survive."

Fan Yonghe repeated it again.

"There is a way to survive, there is a way to survive."

"As long as you arrive in Datong, you will have a way to survive!"

The refugees watched the convoy slowly passing by with smiles on their faces.

The news that Datong had a way to survive spread across the land of Sanqin in an instant, and countless streams of refugees headed for Datong.

At this moment, those refugees had the confidence to live in their hearts, and they were no longer wandering around the land of Sanqin like walking corpses.

……

Zhao Wen stood on the top of the city, looked at the refugees standing in the open space outside Longmen Fort, and said to Zhao Daniu who was standing aside: "How many refugees have come today?"

"Go back to my lord, 400 more people came today." Zhao Daniu looked at the nonchalant Zhao Wen, and couldn't help but said: "My lord, we already recruited enough people from the cement factory the day before yesterday, why do you still need to recruit?"

Zhao Daniu looked at Zhao Wen with a puzzled face, he really couldn't figure it out, why did Zhao Wen still recruit?Now there is not much food in the entire Longmen Fort, and if this continues, the entire Longmen Fort will probably be eaten up by these refugees.

Zhao Wen looked at the refugees outside Longmen Fort, and said in a low voice: "The order to recruit people will not change, keep recruiting."

In fact, Shanxi merchants have already sent enough people for the cement plant.Now these refugees all heard that there was a way to survive here, and came here upon hearing the news.

Of course, for those refugees who came later, Zhao Wen didn't need to give money to Shanxi merchants.

It is now mid-June, and there are less than ten days left before the time to provide glass mirrors to Shanxi merchants.

Zhao Wen wandered around in the glass kiln, checked the progress of the glass mirror manufacturing, and returned to the hall.

"Call Zhao Daniu and others over here, I need to find them."

Zhao Wen sat on the main seat, squinted his eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Li Xiaosan cupped his fists at Zhao Wen, and then left.

Two quarters of an hour later, the entire hall was full of people.

Looking at the person sitting below, Zhao Wen asked slowly, "How are the three hundred recruits trained before?"

"It's almost time to go back to my lord. They are completely different from the ones before." Song Hu stood up and said in a deep voice.

Zhao Wen nodded slightly, and continued, "How many people have come to our Longmen Fort now, besides those needed by the cement factory?"

"My lord, there are seven or eight people in total, and they are all gathered outside Longmen Fort. Liu Wenzhong, Mr. Liu is in charge of this matter." Zhao Daniu stood up and said in a low voice.

Zhao Wen held his forehead with his left hand, and kept tapping on the table with his right hand.

Everyone looked at Zhao Wen who had fallen into silence, and fell silent.

"Pass my order, at sunrise tomorrow, take the recruits and go outside the city to screen these refugees. If they are in good health and want to be soldiers, they will rush into the army. If they don't want to be soldiers, they will Let them build houses about two miles outside Longmen Fort.

By the way, tell them that Longmenbao is going to build an iron factory and a clothing factory now, and see if anyone wants to go there.The farm will also be expanded to see if anyone wants to go to the farm.Tell them that the monthly salary is two taels of silver.

I will provide the materials they need to build a house, but it is not for free, and they will still have to replace it in the future.Let Liu Wenzhong be responsible for building the house. "

Liu Wenzhong led the three brothers of the Zhou family and a dozen or so soldiers from the pro-guard battalion to patrol the refugee camp non-stop.

"There are people who have the capital. As long as these people can live and work in Longmen Castle in peace and contentment, then these people will be the most solid foundation for Zhao Wen in the future." Liu Wenzhong looked at the refugees in the refugee camp, heaved a sigh of relief, and said slowly.

"Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, my lord has an order." Li Xiaosan kept running in the refugee camp, when he suddenly saw Liu Wenzhong, he hurried towards Liu Wenzhong.

Liu Wenzhong looked at Li Xiaosan and asked, "What order?"

"Your Excellency asked you to be in charge of these refugees..." Li Xiaosan had a pretty good memory, remembering Zhao Wen's orders very accurately.

Liu Wenzhong's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "I really didn't see the wrong person, I really didn't see the wrong person. Hahaha!"

The next day, Zhao Daniu, Song Hu and others came to the front of the refugee camp with three hundred recruits holding long guns and a dozen accountants.

"These military masters are not going to drive us away, are they? Didn't they say that there is a way to survive here in Longmen Fort?" A woman in tattered clothes hugged a scrawny boy with big eyes and sat next to her with a worried face. said the man.

The man frowned, let out a long breath, and said, "You two stay here and don't move, I'll go and see. If there is no way out here, then we can only go back."

"Go back? I won't go if I'm beaten to death. I'd rather die here than go back. Shaanxi has started to eat people. Do you still want to go back?" The woman burst into tears when she heard that she wanted to go back.

The man comforted the woman for a while, then walked out.

"Brother, what are these military masters going to do? Are they trying to drive us away?"

The man grabbed a middle-aged man and asked in a low voice.

The middle-aged man turned his head and said with a smile on his face, "It's not to drive us away, it's to give us a way to survive."

The man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "What way to survive?"

"You weren't here just now, right? Just now the military men said that if anyone among us wants to be a soldier and can be admitted, each family will be given 20 taels of silver or [-] acres of land. And Soldiers still receive five taels of silver as a military salary every month, which is not discounted.

If I hadn't been too old, I would have definitely gone back to serve as a soldier.I think you are not very old, but your body is strong. Do you have any idea of ​​becoming a soldier? "

"What else?" The man became agitated when he heard this, and ran back as fast as he could.

"What are you in a hurry for? The adults haven't finished talking. It seems that there are other policies. If you run away and don't listen, don't ask me again." The middle-aged man hurriedly pulled the man back and said slowly.

"Any other policies?" The man walked back after hearing this.Go forward.

Zhao Daniu moved a table directly in front of the refugees, stepped on the table by himself, and shouted loudly with all his strength.

Zhao Daniu's voice was so penetrating that the 700 refugees could hear it clearly.

When Zhao Daniu's last word fell, the entire refugee camp boiled.

"Live Bodhisattva, live Bodhisattva!!!"

"In the future, we must set up a longevity tablet for the garrison lord!!!"

"My God, you finally opened your eyes."

All of a sudden, countless refugees embraced each other, wept loudly, and shed tears of excitement.

Chapter 97

Three days later, a total of more than 800 recruits were selected from the nearly 300 refugees.

Among the remaining common people, the young and strong who were not selected were basically selected into the ironworks.Those old men and the like sat on the ground, sighing long and short, hating themselves for being born a few years earlier.

Even those women, except for those who were too old, basically entered the quilt factory.

Of course, it was impossible for Zhao Wen to select all these young men into the army.

After all, when there are more soldiers, there will be fewer workers.

For this consideration, Zhao Wen's conscription is not the more the better, at least to ensure production first.

The old and weak women and children in the cement factory were also retreated by Zhao Wenqing, after all, these people's strength was too weak.

Because there are many refugees, the Longmen Army also selects the best from the best when selecting recruits.

The remaining ones who were not selected, looked at the arrogant recruits, and they all held back their energy.

"What's the bullshit? Don't you just arrive a day earlier than me, eat a full meal earlier than me, and look more energetic than me? Otherwise, it's your turn?"

A big black-faced man looked at the family living next to his shack, and said with a look of resentment.

"I've been selected, my baby is promising!" An old woman with a wrinkled face and tears in her eyes held a young man's hand excitedly.

The young man knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully to the old woman.

"Mother, the child has gone to serve as a soldier, so I won't be able to take care of my mother anymore." The young man raised his head with a look of excitement, but there was a little sadness in the excitement.

This man was about 25 years old, wearing a sackcloth bunt, with a pair of strong arms exposed, he looked quite strong.

"Mother, this is the land deed for the five mu of land issued from above. You take it away, and this will be the capital for us to live and live in the Longmen Castle boundary." The man took out a neatly folded land deed from his pocket, Blow the dirt on it.

"Second son, you must take good care of your mother in the future. If you dare to neglect our mother, I will not spare you." The man said in a deep voice to a boy who looked like thirteen or fourteen years old standing next to the old woman.

The boy called the second son patted his chest and said, "Brother, I will take care of my mother from now on."

"Mother, this is my farewell to the child." The man respectfully kowtowed three more times to the woman.

The man stood up from the ground, and rushed out without looking back.

The old woman looked at the leaving man, took two quick steps, and shouted at the man's back: "When you become a soldier, you must be worthy of the guard. Everything we have is given by him. From now on, we must give it to him." Desperately, if you dare to offend Lord Guard, I will not spare you."

The man paused, nodded heavily, and headed towards the gate of Longmen Castle.

The people in this era are so simple, whoever gives them a way to survive, then support them.

This guy is called Zhuge Goudan, he just walked into the city gate, his eyes seem to be not enough, looking around.

While he was curious, a pair of big hands rested on his shoulders.

"Hey, who is it?" Zhuge Goudan was startled by this sudden blow.

The man with his wife and child looked at him with a smile on his face, and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Such a big reaction?"

"You are?" Zhuge Goudan looked at the man suspiciously.

The man cupped his hands and said, "My name is Gongsun Erlu, what's the name of the little brother?

Maybe the two of us can still be assigned a part, we got to know each other in advance. "

Zhuge Goudan came back to his senses and said, "I'm going to be Zhuge Goudan, I've seen Brother Erlu."

The two of them seemed to be acquainted with each other, and they walked towards the school field shoulder to shoulder.

The roster of recruits had been sorted out two days ago, and after Zhao Wen handed in the roster, he gave them two days off.Let them take care of things at home.

The previous 56 recruits have already formed an army, but except for the soldiers who were sent to the guard battalion, the rest have not been allocated [-] and a half.

There are 140 people in the personal guard camp, plus the previous total of 65 people.The rest of the battalions were divided into 110 people, and there were a total of [-] people who were taken before.

Liu Wenzhong walked to the refugee camp with several guards from the camp.

Liu Wenzhong stood on a platform that had been erected at the front of the refugee camp, watching the refugees who came after the sound of three-way gongs and drums fell.

"Starting today, the garrison has brought hundreds of thousands of bricks and thousands of catties of cement to build your own houses for you. After all, it's not the same thing for you to live in shacks all the time."

Liu Wenzhong looked at the longing-looking refugees below, and couldn't help but praise in his heart: "Although this Zhao Wen is a martial artist, he has a heart of a bodhisattva. It's not easy."

When the refugees below heard Liu Wenzhong's words, they completely boiled.

Countless refugees had tears in their eyes, knelt on the ground, and shouted words such as the benevolence of adults.

At this time, the ironworks and quilt factories had not yet been built, so these refugees had more manpower to build houses.

Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Wen to give these cement and bricks to them in vain. Zhao Wen is still clear about the reason why Sheng Mi is kind and Mi Qiu is fighting.

After these refugees have all moved into the house, they have to pay back.

Of course, the repayment period is relatively long, and there is no interest.

After all, to build a house, even if the labor costs are not counted, the materials alone cost more than a dozen taels of silver.

Zhao Wen wouldn't just build them a kennel. Although the houses they built were not as good as those in Longmen Fort, they were still much better than ordinary houses.

Each house has a small courtyard of half an acre of land, three bedrooms, one living room, and a kitchen.

In order to cope with the refugees who kept coming, Zhao Wen built enough houses for more than 3000 people at one time.

These houses can be used for a while. In Zhao Wen's vision, a circle will be built around Longmen Fort in the future.

This circle of dwellings is equivalent to the outer city of Longmen Fort. Of course, the outside of these dwellings will also be covered with city walls.

After today, the place two or three miles away from Longmen Fort became an extremely noisy construction site. The refugees were full of energy and were busy working on the construction site.
