Chapter 56:

Hundreds of years ago, the Wu family was also developed. During the Song Dynasty, the ancestors of the Wu family were advisers, and they were also one of the best officials in the area. They wore silk and satin, ate the delicacies of mountains and seas, and even drank tea. The best tea produced in Gongcha.
The Wu family was also quite popular in the local area, so that after the change of dynasty, it was also taken over by the Yuan Dynasty. In order to keep their home, they bowed their heads.
But bowing their heads does not mean that their bodies and minds have obeyed the Yuan Dynasty. The Wu family waited quietly, waiting for one day, the Yuan Dynasty will also decline.
Wu Changqing was forty-two years old. He waited for this day, waited half a lifetime, and finally waited.
"South Bodhisattva." Wu Changqing is very well maintained and looks only in his early thirties.
Among the ancients, the poor people are not as good as the modern people. After all, they have to do more physical work in order to make a living, but the rich are stronger than the modern rich. They eat without any additives and live in big houses. You don't even have to do it yourself in daily life.
Lin Yuan smiled at Wu Changqing: "Master Wu, I've heard the name for a long time."
The smile on Wu Changqing's face became even brighter, even though he also knew that this was just a scene, if Lin Yuan had known him a long time ago, how could he have not come to see him for so long.
However, since Lin Yuan had already said the scenes, he naturally had to show his affection more sincerely.
"Master Wu and the little old man, I'm a very good friend." Song Shizhao also opened his mouth to talk about the scene, exaggerating Wu Changqing. After all, it was the person he introduced to Lin Yuan. The more powerful this person, the more capable he appeared to be—but No matter how powerful it is, it will not surpass him.
The people below are also jealous.
The courtiers are no different from the concubines.
It's nothing more than that, pestering the emperor, supporting the emperor, and doing something practical.
Then form cliques and fight against dissidents. It is best that the emperor has no other servants besides himself.
If the concubines get involved again and want to play a role in the previous dynasty, then the courtiers will have to compete with the concubines and be jealous.
Dealing with the concubine is even simpler. It is directly that the harem cannot participate in politics. If you participate, you are the enchanting concubine. You will be unlucky, and I will force you to die.
They are not only colleagues, but also competitors. If one person goes up, the other will definitely come down.
It is much easier to understand their relationship as that of colleagues in the modern workplace.
That’s the only way to rise. When doing things, you can cooperate with each other, and when you are fighting for benefits, it is more fierce than facing killing your father and enemy.
What's more different from the modern workplace is that promotion in the workplace is just a higher salary and more people in charge.
However, the promotion of officials in ancient times had more room for benefits, so they can't be blamed, but the people above are not smart enough.
After a greeting, the three of them finally got to the point.
Wu Changqing sat upright, with a smile on his face, and said: "When I didn’t come, I often heard someone say from outside that the South Bodhisattva was a young and talented bodhisattva, and he was a bodhisattva who knows people and is good for his duties. ."
Lin Yuan: "Master Wu just said that."
A corporal ritual is not necessarily a corporal who is more talented. The main purpose is to behave so that more people will come to join him.
There may be a few insightful people in it. As for those who are incapable, most of them are raised for nothing. It is estimated that many people have gone bankrupt when raising staff.
After all, people are not cats, cats and dogs. Keeping them has to take care of not only their food, but also their daily clothing, housing and transportation.
In short, the Wu Changqing in front of him, whether he is really capable or not, Lin Yuan will keep him, and he has to entrust him with an important task to express his desire and importance for talents.
Set up a sign so that only those who are still waiting will come.
He also hopes to attract Luo Guanzhong, whether or not Luo Guanzhong is an excellent military strategist, at least he wrote the Romance of the Three Kingdoms! Passed down through the ages, a generation of writers, what if he raises Luo Guanzhong? He is happy!
Wu Changqing asked: "Has the South Bodhisattva ever thought about whether to dwell here, or to go further."
"If you go one step further, Nan Bodhisattva, do you want to take Hangzhou?"
Lin Yuan finally couldn't help but smile. He said to Song Shizhao: "Mr. Song, okay, it seems that your seat is lost."
Song Shizhao also laughed, but not so sincerely, but on the surface it was not bad. He handed over and said, "I originally gave this position to Yingjie."
Wu Changqing constrained and said: "Now Nan Bodhisattva will be the two generals Zhu and Chen, accompanied by the three participating generals Li, Yang, and Zhang, but I don't know that Nan Bodhisattva has thought about it. The two generals Zhu and Chen are now unable to be promoted. Rise?"
Lin Yuan's expression changed, he suppressed his anger and smiled: "I wonder if Master Wu has any ideas?"
Wu Changqing also knew that these words would inevitably touch Lin Yuan's negative scales, but if he wanted to have a future, he had to say this, otherwise it would be superficial and it would be difficult to make further progress, so he whispered: "These two people In charge of tens of thousands of horses, why don't Nan Bodhisattva tell them to be separate..."
The method he came up with was to have Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Baisong wrestle.
This can weaken their strength and prevent them from uniting to seek Lin Yuan's current seat.
Lin Yuan also knew that Wu Changqing was right, he had avoided thinking about this issue all this time.
After the capture of Gaoyou, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Baisong contributed the most. They were made generals in order to stabilize the military spirit. But the problem is that people's desires will expand infinitely, and the generals only have kings of different surnames.
And he didn't want to hide everything in the future.
Lin Yuan could only smile and said to Wu Changqing: "Master Wu can think of this, but I don't know what to do, and I feel ashamed. I will definitely consider this matter seriously."
Wu Changqing: "Listen to Nan Bodhisattva's dispatch."
Lin Yuan turned his head and said to Song Shizhao: "Look at Master Wu holding himself upright, and then going to take care of the people's livelihood?"
Song Shizhao quickly winked at Wu Changqing, and the two thanked Wu Changqing.
Leaving Wu Mansion, Lin Yuan frowned slightly, Song Shizhao was frightened on the side, he did not dare to ask, he could only walk aside and wait for Lin Yuan to speak.
Lin Yuan: "This person is smart and keen, but he is on the sidelines. It is more than enough to be a small official. If he is a big official, he will definitely be a disaster for the people."
Song Shizhao: "Exactly!"
Lin Yuan glanced at Song Shizhao obliquely: "You have seen it long ago, haven't you?"
Song Shizhao smiled.
Wu Changqing did not look at the people or the world.
He looks at the human heart, the desire for power.
Such a person may have a little achievement, but it will never be too big, because his foothold is too small.
Song Shizhao said, "Although he has no talent, he still has some abilities. Why don't the boss take a look."
Lin Yuan nodded, his eyes a little melancholy.
Now his army can be stable, the people's minds can be stable, relying on the name of Nan Bodhisattva, and the visible good days.
It is not the personal charm of Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Baisong.
Moreover, the soldiers they bring are not fixed, and the soldiers are uniformly trained and occasionally disrupted, just to prevent them from being loyal to a certain person.
Lin Yuan didn't hope that if the great cause was not achieved, the inside would be torn apart and his own affairs would be separate.
Make another faction.
And Wu Changqing's suggestion was to separate factions and tell them to fight on their own, while Lin Yuan watched from the sidelines to win over the hearts of the people.
This is a trail tactic, and a little carelessness will destroy the foundation.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Baisong are working hard at the front, but he is behind them?
Then he really deserves to die.
For the sake of selfish desire, put everyone behind.
Lin Yuan looked down on such a leader and couldn't do it.
Wu Changqing quickly took office and became a county magistrate in the southern district of Gaoyou. It was probably because of his reference. Gaoyou suddenly swarmed into many outsiders, some with their families, some came alone, and they all looked for them. When it comes to Song Shizhao, Song Shizhao not only manages the business, but also takes care of the talent pool.
Lin Yuan is also at ease now that Song Shizhao, Song Shizhao, when he is younger, he understands the truth, his vision is broad, and he has the world in his mind. One day, the world will become one.
And Song Shizhao knows a lot.
He knows how to guard people, and he knows how to look at people.
Understand these two, even if it is a capable person standing at the forefront of the times.
The people who came to cast the effect were all living in Song Shizhao’s mansion, and Song Shizhao was responsible for the daily expenses. In addition to taking time out every day to swipe his face card in front of Lin Yuan at a fixed time, he spent more time playing Tai Chi with the caster. Above.
He hit and hit, but he really found a few good ones.
In addition to the ones that came, he also learned that many hadn't come, and reported them.
Lin Yuan took a look.
Liu Ji Song Lian was among those who appeared in the Song Shizhao newspaper.
Liu Ji, Liu Bowen, and Zhu Yuanzhang's first counselor, were compared to Zhuge.
Lin Yuan slapped the table with joy: "Okay!"
"Come on, take care of the pen and ink!" Lin Yuan shouted.
Two or two hurried into the house to shop paper and rub ink.
Lin Yuan wants to write a letter of appointment, Li Xian corporal, ask Liu Ji and Song Lian to come to Gaoyou to help him.
He wrote these three letters of appointment personally, and spent a lot of brain cells. After finishing writing, he felt that his literacy level was quite good. After quoting from the classics, he would not understand if he had not crossed over to him, thanks to the original owner. I used to be a scholar with a high level of cultural attainment, otherwise I can only ask someone to write.
"Hand over these three letters to Director Song and ask him to send someone to send them." Lin Yuan instructed Erliang.
Two or two nodded, and left the room with three letters.
In addition to Liu Ji and Song Lian, there is another one for Luo Guanzhong.
One of Liu Ji and Song Lian is a counselor and the other is a civil servant. As for Luo Guanzhong...If it doesn't work, it would be good to be a mascot!
Lin Yuan thought to himself: I don't care, I will be self-willed, I will look at Luo Guanzhong, even if he has no talent, as long as he can write the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I will confess him!
If you have been a Cthulhu and leader for so long, it's okay to be willful once.

The businessmen came back one after another. After walking for more than half a year, they were protected by a squad when they left. In the end, they brought a few entourages. When they came back, they came back with great momentum, and they were all people behind their buttocks. These people were dressed in ragged clothes. His face looked miserable, and his face was still confused. I didn't know what kind of luck I had, but I was taken to Gaoyou.
Nowadays, it’s spreading to the outside world that Gaoyou’s life is the best. As long as you want to work, you can find work and eat. Even if you can’t find work, you can still serve as a soldier. It’s better to be a soldier. Three days You can eat meat once and white rice once every seven days.
Although they don't know whether it is true or not, they all think Gaoyou is a good place, but they didn't expect that they would have the opportunity to come.
The merchants met outside the city gate and greeted them with a smile, calmly showing off how many craftsmen they had found and how many were relatives of them.
Xie Zichang and Zhou Fu also met. The two of them didn't like each other. The reason was that they felt that other businessmen were inferior. Only the other party had the capital to compare with themselves.
"How many people did Brother Xie find?" Zhou Fu asked with a smile.
Xie Zichang also laughed, more elegant: "Not many, but more than two thousand."
Zhou Fu was surprised and said: "It can be seen that Brother Xie's ability cannot be compared with ordinary people.
"So so." Xie Zichang handed over and said modestly, "I don't know how many people Brother Zhou found."
Zhou Fu’s hatred made the roots of his teeth a little itchy. He told him to thank his brother for the sake of face, and he really called his own brother. Sure enough, he was shameless, and the tree didn’t need bark, but he had to smile on his face: "The fool is also lucky, no A lot more, just over two thousand people."
Xie Zichang: "Brother Zhou is capable."
Zhou Fu and Xie Zichang were chatting and laughing while wishing that each other fell from their carriage now, so that their brains would break.
A total of 18,000 artisans were brought over this time.
The merchants have some methods, and many of them are bought from prison and cheated by good people.
Others were found from the refugees.
These eighty thousand people were placed outside the city. Because it was going to enter the winter, Lin Yuan asked people to build dormitories outside the city after he took down Gaoyou. They were connected together in patches and surrounded by walls, in order to let the technicians live It's comfortable, so the dormitory is a family unit, one family, two bedrooms, one living room, and a kitchen, but there is a kitchen on the first floor, but there are several stoves.
Lin Basan is a new craftsman in Gaoyou.
He used to be a carpenter, and what he used to do was to make furniture for the surrounding fathers and villagers to earn some living money. The world was in chaos. Unlike everyone in the village, he also fled with the crowd. As a result, the whole family lived and slept. , Without food and money, survived hard.
As a result, as soon as the wealthy businessmen showed up and discovered that he was a carpenter, they took him on the road, and even his wife—his parents and children died on the road, but his wife and himself survived. .
His wife's surname is Qian, Xingliu, and she is called Liuniang. Liuniang and Lin Basan walked up to the second floor together. Liuniang was born in the village since she was a child. All she saw were low bungalows that could be covered with bricks. Those are all big households, and the peasants have a mud house that does not leak air or rain, so they are considered rich among the peasants.
Liuniang lowered her head and followed the person leading the way. She looked at the smooth path under her feet. For some reason, there were tears in her eyes. If her parents-in-law and the children could survive, it would be great.
"This is your husband and wife's house." The steward who led the way sighed, "You are a family, so you can get this house. If you are a single one, you can only divide it into a single dormitory, but there are seven or eight people in one room. You are lucky. it is good."
Lin Basan hurriedly said, "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir, I don’t know the name of the adult, and the villain will be able to..."
The manager waved his hand: "Don't tell me to beat people. I used to be like you. When you come here, you can serve the South Bodhisattva. The good days are yet to come."
This manager is Liang Da. He and the third son were both from the stockade, but they were later subdued by Lin Yuan. Now they are working as a small manager at the bottom, and they have a smooth life. He looks at these newcomers like watching To the previous self.
Lin Basan walked into the house with his wife after sending off Liang Da.
There were only two of them. The house they were allocated was the smallest on the corner. There was a room and a hall outside. The kitchen was near the balcony. But it was a little troublesome to go downstairs. There was a house next to it. A Christopher.
"Lao Lin, we have a house." Liuniang touched the table and chairs. Although the house was simple, it had a table and a stool, and there was a bed in it. Even when their family was the richest, they couldn't live in such a good house. .
Lin Basan also expressed emotion. He said to his wife: "The Nan Bodhisattva has built these many houses, and I don't know how much money it will cost. It's really a bodhisattva-like heart. I didn't believe it before, but now, I don't see it."
Liu Niang quickly said: "Then you have to work hard in the future! Only then can you be worthy of the benevolence of Nan Bodhisattva."
Lin Basan: "This is natural! If anyone says that the Nan Bodhisattva is not good, I will interrupt his nose!"
The couple saw the rush of life, and after crying with a headache, the couple would go out. They had to report to their respective team leaders to collect the work, and then go to get the clothes and bedding.
When I checked in, I saw the people who were brought together. Although they didn't have much contact, they felt close when they saw it.
Lin Basan said to the man, "Are you assigned to a house?"
The man also looked happy: "It's assigned, I'm alone, so I have to live in a single dormitory, but I also have a separate bed. When I get married, I can also be assigned to a wedding room."
"Hey, I thought I was dreaming when I heard it. I have to work hard and marry a mother-in-law earlier."
Lin Basan was also happy.
The man asked Lin Basan again: "You and your mother-in-law are in the house, right?"
Lin Basan told the man about his living environment, and he was really envious.
It was probably the two of them who took the lead, and the people in the line also started talking about their houses.
With some luck, the family was able to secure a big house. A family of five lives in a three-bedroom and one-living house. The wife lives in a house with himself, the parents have a house, and the children have a house. It is so happy that they will fly to the sky. Up.
As they chatted, they felt that the world was so big, but Gaoyou was the only place where they could settle down. Only the Nan Bodhisattva ruled Lin Yuan.
The common people are like this, whoever benefits them a lot, they support him sincerely.
Most of the people are not literate, they don't understand much, but they know one thing-who can make them live a good life, who is a good person, is worthy of their support.

Looking at the craftsmen who were brought in, Lin Yuan was greatly relieved.
In Lin Yuan’s opinion, the value of craftsmen is higher than some scholars who only read dead books. Such scholars are not diligent, and have no other ability besides writing books, so they are even sent. They can't do well in literacy. They don't teach students according to their aptitude. What can they teach by treating six or seven-year-old children as adults? It is genius who can learn.
And this is quite a lot, so Lin Yuan can only let them do household registration transcription.
The craftsmen are different. What they do can be implemented, and these craftsmen will bring out more apprentices in the future.
In addition to the craftsman, what surprised Lin Yuan most was the crops that Zhou Fu brought back. He said before that he told them to pay attention to the merchant ships going on and off at sea. If there are any crops that they have never seen before, also bring them back, whether they can eat them or not. , Has anyone eaten it before, take it back first.
So he saw potatoes and sweet potatoes.
You know, although no one knows when potatoes were introduced to China, sweet potatoes only appeared in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.
These two crops are both high-yielding and highly adaptable crops. It is conceivable that their food reserves will increase.
Lin Yuan took Zhou Fu's hand in surprise, with a sincere expression on his face, as if looking at the fat-eared Zhou Fu in front of him as if he was looking at the beloved one, and he could drip water softly: "Master Zhou, The merits of living people! It must be remembered in history!"
Zhou Fu laughed and couldn't figure it out. He didn't know what these two things were. When he saw the merchant ships on the sea, he bought them from the Gentiles. The Gentiles were not willing to sell them. He paid a big price for them. Secretly stuffed it to myself.
As for whether these two kinds of food can be eaten or not, he has no idea how to grow them.
Lin Yuan also said: "Master Zhou has done a great job this time. If you have anything you want, just say it, but I should do everything I can."
Zhou Fu's eyes widened. He never thought that he brought more than two thousand people back and didn't get this sentence. He would have to say if he brought two baskets of things that he didn't know what it was. It's all within Zhou's part. The South Bodhisattva should never be polite to Zhou. Just give orders if you have anything."
Lin Yuan smiled so that his teeth were about to be exposed: "You are welcome, you are welcome."
"Come here! There will be a banquet tonight, and all the merchants who will come back are invited!"
The people outside loudly promised.
Lin Yuan said: "What else will you bring with you in the future."
Zhou Fu nodded, feeling happy too.
Don't worry about why the Nan Bodhisattva praised him, at least he suppressed Xie Zichang this time, and the next time the two see you again, he will be able to stab the old guy.
Because there was only one basket of potatoes and sweet potatoes, Lin Yuan asked people to take them and cultivate them first, and then distribute them to farmers when they were planted.
After he explained how to plant it in detail, he became a slap-off shopkeeper, only going over to see the situation occasionally.
In famine years, I don’t know how many people depended on sweet potatoes for their lives.
Although he didn't want the people to live a life of relying on sweet potatoes, but with more protection, more people could live.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
There is no exact time when the potato was introduced. It can only be found that it was about the 16th century, that is, the middle of the Ming Dynasty, or it may be in the early Qing Dynasty, so it is uncertain.
Sweet potatoes, that is, sweet potatoes were in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.
It's also considered that I gave Lin Yuan a gold finger, okay.
Thank you Xingwei, Axie, Years Like Land, 34159107, The Mine
