The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 417 Expansion of Manpower
"I understand, go ahead and do your work. We won't go too far. We will also bring guards for protection." Princess Chenxi replied.

Lin Hai then came to the dock with Yuhua Shi.

The lunch meal includes fish and meat. These craftsmen cannot eat such good food during the Chinese New Year.

Everyone ate happily.

Even the family members who moved here ate the same food.

Taking care of the food for the whole family, all the money earned can be saved.

Lin Hai was thinking about hiring a few more teachers for them, so that the children of these craftsmen would have the opportunity to read and write.

These shipbuilding techniques can be inherited in the future, and it will be easier if you can recognize the characters.

Seeing Lin Hai coming, Cao Fang quickly put down his bowl and came to greet him.

"No need to be polite, just eat first. I'll discuss something small with you."

"Sir, if you have anything to do, just ask me!"

“We will have more and more craftsmen living here, and they all have their families, many of them with children.

These kids run around all day with nothing to do.

I plan to invite some teachers to come over and teach them how to read and write, and I will pay for the expenses.

what do you think? "

"Of course this is a good thing!" Cao Fang quickly agreed.

"Ordinary people's children don't know any words, and even most of us craftsmen can't read a single big character.

If we could let them read and write, I believe everyone would dream of it. "

"That's enough. You can tell the craftsmen later that their children should not do other things.

Go to school on time every day.

Later, if you select a few people to build a school, it will be able to accommodate everyone. Lin Hai said.

"That's great. I would like to thank you all on behalf of everyone!"

“You don’t have to be so polite, you come here to work, and I should take good care of you.

If these children are good at reading, they can take part in the imperial examination.

If you can’t go to school, you can at least be able to read.

When you grow up, you can easily find a living without having to do hard work.

Even if you stay and continue to learn carpentry, your income will not be low! "

Cao Fang nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "What the adults said is that in the future, our children will be able to read and understand.

Maybe he can even become an official.

Even if you stay as a craftsman, you can still learn faster than others! "

Lin Hai nodded: "Of course it's good to read more and learn to read. You should write down all your skills.

And there is also research into building stronger and bigger ships.

Let our navy in Daxia become more powerful. "

The craftsmen soon heard about asking a teacher for their children.

Excited one by one.

"Our boss is so good! I can't believe how good it is. I'm afraid that this is a dream and everything will be gone when I wake up."

"Hahaha, if you don't believe it's true, why not just slap yourself twice.

If you feel pain, it’s definitely not a dream! "Someone said jokingly with a smile.

"Hey, you second pillar, how dare you tease me, why don't I teach you a lesson!"

"Our boss is so kind, how can we repay him? Even if we work hard, we still feel sorry for the kindness our boss treats us."

Cao Fang smiled and said: "That's right, it's hard to find such a good employer in your lifetime.

We just need to work hard.

The boss has said that four ships must be built next spring.

He is so kind to us, but if he fails to meet the requirements of his employer, he would really be sorry for his employer.

We have too few people now. If any of you know carpenters or young laborers, please come here.

It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do carpentry, you can learn and teach after you come here. "Don't worry, Lao Cao. After you finished speaking this morning, I immediately asked my mother-in-law to go find someone at home."

You must find all your family members.

What kind of work do you do when you have such a good salary?

You can't make any money fishing and drying salt every day. You're as tired as a dog and you have to be scolded. "

"Hey, I also asked my mother-in-law to go back to her hometown and call everyone in the family over.

In the past, people said carpenters had no future and looked down on me.

Things are different now, we carpenters can also stand tall. "

The more people talked, the happier they became. Of course, when good things happen, you must first think of your own family.

Cao Fang was relieved. There were more than 2000 craftsmen, and one person could call two of them, so there were 4000 people.

With so many people working, we can definitely catch up on the construction period.

The key is that they are all related.

Let your own people teach the techniques, no one will hide them, they will teach them very carefully.

By the afternoon, more and more people were arriving.

These people are still hungry. They can only drink some rice porridge in the morning and have a meal at noon before eating at night.

When you come, eat first and then work.

I saw that the food here was so good, not only rice and white flour steamed buns, but also meat.

Everyone ate and drank so much that their bellies were round.

They were scolded by the family members, who thought they were embarrassed as if they had never eaten.

Then he began to teach how to work and started working.

I originally thought that the conditions mentioned were a bit exaggerated, and I didn't quite believe in the treatment here.

Only after experiencing it for myself did I know that everything was true.

Work harder.

Some of the young men who were summoned were willing to learn carpentry, and some were willing to join the navy and the army.

The number of people quickly expanded.

The population increased so much at once, and some people were assigned to build houses faster.

In one day, Cao Qiang had more than a thousand people under his command, and he was directly promoted from a hundred households to a thousand households.

Even he himself felt very incredible.

This can be considered a moderate general.

Under Wang Dayong's guidance, he was asked to select some highly capable and prestigious people in the army to serve as hundreds of households.

Continue to train them to take instructions.

The leader of the Salt Gang saw that none of his men came back when they went out to look for people.

He was so angry that he dropped all the teapots on the table.

"This makes no sense, where have these bastards gone?

Could it be that everyone betrayed the Salt Gang and ran away with any benefits? "

One of his men frowned and said, "I have an ominous premonition. Could something happen to them all?"

The hall leader glanced at him: "What did you say? Who dares to provoke our salt gang members in this territory?"

"Ordinary people really don't dare to provoke us, but this time they are dealing with the craftsmen.

I heard that more than 2000 people have gathered to build a ship on the dock.

If these people really dare to take action, we may suffer a loss if we send dozens of brothers. "

The hall master looked gloomy after hearing his words, thought for a moment and said: "What you said really makes sense.

Who on earth could have such a big hand and summoned so many craftsmen at once?

It seems that we were a little too careless and did not investigate the people behind the craftsmen! "
