Chapter 46:

The people of Taizhou knew that they were already in the hands of the anti-thief.
The officials either died or stayed in the hands of the anti-thief to do things. They were anxious and didn't know what to do. The street vendors no longer set up stalls, and the doors of restaurants and inns were closed. Everyone was worried that the fire would burn. On your own head.
But it didn't take long for them to discover that there were soldiers patrolling the streets every day, and there was no curfew at night. The gates of the yamen were always open, and there were many yamen that had never been heard before—now called departments.
Taxation is one.
It's one of those who fights and fights corrupt people.
Even the husband beating his wife is under the control of the department.
"What's wrong with me hitting her? My own mother-in-law! I teach myself! What's going on with you!" The man was dragged on the street by the soldiers, shouting angrily, "Govern the heavens and the earth! Even beating the mother-in-law! "
The woman followed, with bruises on her face. She also followed, and said as she walked: "Master Bing, Master Bing, I'm fine, I'm really fine, don't catch him, don't catch him."
There are many people watching the excitement nearby.
"How many people have you caught?"
"I don't know, everyone who is caught has to go to the Yamen and take off his pants and big ass. It won't be better if you don't lie down for a few days.
"You said, what does the person above do? The person hitting his wife, not someone else."
"Someone has said that this is a crime of hindering the unity of the masses."
"What, what crime?"
"Hindering the unity of the masses, saying that they are husbands and beating their wives, the family is distracted. Every household is like this. What should I do if something happens in the future? You can still count on a wife you beat me to continue to obey your mother-in-law, take care of children, and do laundry. Cooking? I'm not afraid that your mother-in-law will buy some arsenic to let you go to Huangquan Road?"
"That... seems to make sense."
"Then it's up to her to be the master, why did she go and beg, and she was beaten like that, isn't it cheap?"
"What do you know, her man was beaten, she can't get out of bed for a few days, and there is no income at home, what should I do if I eat? You have to fill your stomach?"
"Besides, is it possible to divorce my husband?"
"She is a woman, if she is divorced and her family cannot go back, what should I do in the future? Be a beggar?"
"You don't know anymore, do you?" Someone said, "Now there is a labor bureau. As long as you register, you will find work for you. Both men and women are required. You are a lame man and can find work for you. If you don’t have a place to live, the Labor Bureau will find you a place to live."
"There are other good things, why don't you go?"
"I want to see again..."
"I went, and I'll go to work in three days."
"What are you going to do?"
"Strike iron."
"Don't be funny, you are not a blacksmith, you still strike iron, right?"
"What do you know, you can't learn it, there are teachers over there."
"...Is someone really taught me?"
"Of course, I went to find out clearly."
The people are very adaptable. They are more concerned about their livelihoods, what they will eat tomorrow, whether they can eat enough, and whether they can live a better life.
During this time, Lin Yuan focused all his energy on productivity.
Taizhou has more food reserves than Lin Yuan imagined. After the initial panic, the people finally dared to take to the streets.
"Han Shantong is dead?" Brother Dao was startled, he became scared, "Then the court is going to deal with us now?"
Lin Yuan smiled and said: "How many people do you think the court can move now?"
Brother Dao looked at Lin Yuan and felt relieved: "But they will never leave us alone?"
Lin Yuan: "Okay, let's not tease you anymore, the court has already received a letter."
A group of people surrounded Lin Yuan: "What did the court say?"
Lin Yuan: "Said that as long as I am willing to submit to the court, I will be a millionaire."
Everyone: "The dog court is spending a lot of money this time."
Lin Yuan said: "As long as we don't establish a nation or establish a national title, the court will not care about us now."
This was the case in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty. Several rebel leaders and Jianguo Lihao were the first to be liquidated. After all, this is about the face of the court. This is equivalent to opposing the court. Even if the court does not want to move, they have to move.
But as long as the national title is not established, the imperial court always focuses on Zhaoan.
After all, the current imperial court, the only armed forces with strong combat effectiveness under its hands are Tuotuo Timur and Chahan Timur.
"Furthermore, the Han people are not united nowadays."
Today's Han people are divided into three groups.
One wave, with the landlord class as the main class, allegiance to the Yuan Dynasty, to "do everything for the Yuan Dynasty to serve the country."
One wave is ordinary Han people, who protect themselves and observe the timing.
The last wave was to join the peasant army. There are now small uprisings everywhere, and it is not difficult to join the peasant army.
Lin Yuan: "Normal."
Brother Dao didn't understand: "Everything is normal, now it's all the same, they still have to be loyal to the dog court."
Lin Yuan asked: "Why should we oppose."
Brother Dao: "Naturally because the people don't have a living, but if they go on, there will be no way to survive if they don't!"
Lin Yuan nodded: "That's it. Those who don't turn back are because they are still alive and can live well. They will be afraid. If the day comes to change the dynasty, can they still have a good life now? ?"
"They are afraid, so naturally they don't want to change, and naturally they have to be loyal to the court."
Brother Dao slapped the table: "This kind of person is really hateful!"
Lin Yuan smiled and patted Brother Dao on the shoulder: "Where is it hateful?"
Brother Dao: "Hate it everywhere!"
Lin Yuan said: "Then let's make an analogy, Brother Dao, you are now the landlord, and the wife is a lady of everyone. She is beautiful and good-looking. You have more than a dozen concubines and wives. Beauty, what you eat every day is abalone and sea cucumber, and you drink top-quality tea. If you are in groups, you don't have to worry about anything."
"You are thirsty, someone will bring you tea and water, you are hungry, someone will cook for you, you can't wear clothes, and you can't spend your money."
"But now there are rebellions. Once these rebellions succeed, your sea cucumber and abalone are gone, and your aunt is gone. You and your subordinates are the same person. Do you want these rebellions to succeed?"
Brother Dao: "Of course I!"
Lin Yuan looked at him: "Of course what?"
Brother Dao touched the back of his head: "I understand when you say that."
Lin Yuan: "It's understandable logically, but if I really meet this kind of person, I can only strip him off, and I won't leave him a penny."
Brother Dao: "...enough."
Zhu Yuanzhang and the others were listening behind, and they all felt that what Lin Yuan said was reasonable.
Most people are like this. They will only get angry when their own interests are violated. If they have nothing to do with their own interests, they will not matter to them.
However, there are also a small number of people who have higher education and are not short of money, but are willing to fight for people who are not in the same class. This kind of spirit is the most rare.
Found one, that is a gem.
What Lin Yuan hopes now is to have a few more treasures.
The main reason is that there are too few people who can recognize words. Even if all the people who recognize words in Taizhou are mobilized to work, there is still a big gap.
Lin Yuan asked Chen Baisong: "How are the people doing now? Isn't it as uneasy as before?"
Chen Baisong shook his head: "That's not the case. Now the hawkers have reopened their street stalls, and the restaurants and inns have reopened. They all say things are better now."
Lin Yuan couldn't distribute the grain directly. It was OK to provide relief once, but would he have to provide relief every time? No matter how much food is, it is not enough.
He can only create more jobs and let them trade their labor for food.
Women have women’s work, making clothes, cooking, and configuring gunpowder.
There are also a lot of men's affairs. In short, the whole Taizhou people are together, running at high speed like a machine.
Even the beggars on the roadside—they have something to do.
Lin Yuan now asks Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Baisong to pick out people from their hands to cultivate talents.
Such as undercover agents walking outside, or scouts reporting news.
In short, it is all aspects of development.
The two came in with snacks at both ends: "Master, you guys have something to eat, this is the chef's new pastry."
This cook was sent by Zhao Zirong, and he said that his ancestor was from a royal cook.
Lin Yuan sighed again while eating the snack.
Fortunately, he was wearing a feudal society, and if he were wearing a slave society, he would not even have a snack.
Although the feudal society did not have smart phones, computers, various entertainment activities, and even normal human rights.
but! It's better than slave society.
Thinking about it this way, it seemed to get a touch of comfort.
"This has to use a lot of sugar." Brother Dao said this while eating the cakes while spraying the scum.
Yang Zi'an unbearably covered Brother Dao's mouth with his hands.
"Eat yours, don't talk, spray everywhere."
Brother Dao: "Mmm..."
Zhu Yuanzhang also said cold words next to him: "Don't you, I can't hear what you are going to say."
Lin Yuan asked Zhu Yuanzhang: "How have you been training recently, are the newly recruited soldiers obedient?"
Zhu Yuanzhang: "All obedient."
Those who are disobedient will be beaten, no one can't think about it.
Lin Yuan said: "The main thing is to cultivate their sense of teamwork and a sense of collective honor."
Zhu Yuanzhang: "...what is that..."
Lin Yuan thought for a while, and explained: "It's the feeling that every one is prosperous and every one is damaged."
Zhu Yuanzhang touched his chin: "Understood, I'll go back and think about it."
Lin Yuan: "Think hard, don't worry."
Chen Baisong watched Zhu Yuanzhang go out and asked Lin Yuan, "Master, what are we going to do next?"
Lin Yuan: "Wait, wait another three months, Taizhou is stable, and the recruits have almost practiced, so they can train with Gaoyou."
"I have made plans." Lin Yuan took out a map and tick off several places. "After taking Gaoyou, it will be Changshu, Huzhou, Songjiang, Changzhou, and Pingjiang. In short, we can't stand still. ."
Chen Baisong looked at the sketched map, nodded and replied, "Naturally."
Lin Yuan looked at the map.
Until now, the journey has been smooth.
I just hope that the road ahead will be as smooth as it is now.
