That very important letter reached the first messenger that night.

The person receiving the letter has rough fingers, with obvious calluses at the tiger's mouth, and a thick layer of calluses on the outer edge of the palm, and thick fingers.

There was a strong smell of fresh wood in the room, and there were some carpenter's tools such as saws, chisels, axes, etc.

The person who received the letter was Lizheng in this part of the city, and Zheng Guo already had the prototype of the Shiwu system after the Zi Chuan Reform Law of that year, and in recent years, he has fought against Korea one after another, and this system has been further strengthened.

It's just that although the system exists, it is not the same as the Qin State after the change of law in later generations, the Qin State is based on officials, and there are enough officials at the township level that can be controlled by the grassroots level.

However, Zheng Guo's political system was more loose, and the debate on the township school did not destroy the township school, which gave birth to Deng Xi's bamboo punishment instead of the official Ding punishment, which made Zheng Guomin's discussion of politics extremely fierce.

One is that the economy is relatively remote and developed enough, and the other is because Zheng Guo's centralization of power is not strong enough, and although the township school was destroyed after the death of Zisheng, the remnants are serious.

The Lizheng among the villagers is not officially designated by Zheng Guo, but is elected by the people, or is a local prestige figure.

After all, Zheng Guo is different from the Qin State after the reform, and the central finance is not able to pay the salaries of some low-level officials, of course, those who do not pay money are not allowed to be officials.

The person who received the letter, who was a carpenter by his profession, was naturally a member of the craftsman's guild, and was also an important figure in the activities of the secret village school here.

After the introduction of the wheelbarrow called the ink car to Zheng Guo, the carpenters of the craftsmen lived a good life for a few years.

He is also a warm-hearted person, and the witches who come and go to the city to treat people are also familiar with him, and he usually looks for him when there is anything in the neighborhood, and he knows some words, which is quite prestigious among the neighbors.

It can be said that this is a person who writes the words "I am the ink man" on his face, but in terms of Zheng Guo's grassroots control ability, no one pays attention to it and no one governs it.

As an outsider, it is impossible for South Korea to understand the truth of this.

The small craftsmen and the burghers of the city were originally the basis for the expansion of the Mo family outside of Sishang, and the craftsmen did not need too many reasons to join the Mo family, and there were not many stories.

The carpenter who received the letter couldn't help but scold: "In the past, the giant made ink cars for the benefit of the people. It's a good thing that the unjust war between Wei and Han actually had to use such a car to transport grain. The Zheng nobles were driven away, and the Han nobles were not a good thing either. ”

The messenger advised: "Don't be in a hurry, one day everyone will be happy and equal." This letter is very important, you are going to carry the grain tomorrow, and someone will answer it when you get to the place. When you get to the place, tie your head with a white scarf, and someone will look for you. ”

After saying that, he handed over a very white and clean cotton cloth, and the carpenter took it and carefully hid it in his arms, and put the letter away.

and did not leave any guests, so they dispersed.

Early in the morning of the second day, the neighbors had already gathered outside, and the wheelbarrow had become popular in recent years, even if not one person, but one for two families.

Many people complained: "Carpenter, you said that people have to pay for labor in the Song Kingdom, and we won't give anything." Zheng Jun didn't give it when he was in charge of us, and the Koreans didn't give it when they came, so what did the Koreans do? ”

"That is, the work at home has to be put down again, and the car breaks down and you have to trouble you to repair it, but the army does not give money."

There was a grumbling, but at last there was no complaint, the peasants were not busy at the moment, and the craftsmen were now busy but most of them listened to the carpenters.

The carpenter pointed to the Korean soldier in the distance and said, "Who let the family have this in their hands?" Stop complaining, let's go, you don't have to bring your own food. ”

After counting the number of people, dozens of wheelbarrows creaked to the front of the treasury, where the Koreans were counting and carrying bags of grain onto the wheelbarrow.

Li Zheng recognized a few words, so he went to the little official in charge, who was also a Zheng person, but used the number of Sishang, which is now convenient.

The Korean officials next to him also recognized that the text on Sishang was contemptuously called "cheap words", but it was also called "official book", and when Sishang used the word 20 years ago, he said that there would always be a day when everyone in the world would use it.

Although today we don't talk about the whole world, the officials in the Central Plains and Qin basically use this kind of script with a lower cost of literacy.

Originally, the grain of the treasury was directly piled up, in recent years, with the promotion of cotton planting, cotton cloth gradually replaced linen cloth as the bottom of the clothing fabric, some coarse hemp also began to be used to weave sacks, Xunze has a handicraft workshop specializing in making sacks, and the grain of the treasury here no longer uses capacity units such as "stone", "Weng", "kettle", etc., but uses the Jin of the Song Land in Sishang as a unit.

One is the change of containers, and the other is that the main trade object is Sishang, which has become the economy of the world, and the units of measurement used there are quickly popularized semi-officially with purposeful and conscious publicity, just as Deng Xizhu did in those years.

After counting the number, the treasurer said: "Eighty people, forty cars, three hundred and twenty catties each, must arrive within four days." Twenty catties of them are food for the road, and if it is missing, it will be punished. ”

After writing down the simple paperwork, the carpenter sneered in a nonchalant tone, "You have to take the pickles yourself." ”

The little official of the treasury of Nafu is also an interesting person, and he also smiled: "In the past, not only pickles, but also the food you eat, you had to bring your own." The Koreans are also benevolent, and they even prepared food for us to eat on the road. ”

The two of them smiled as if no one was around, they all looked indifferent, the elders of these people or themselves had participated in several coups and rebellions of Zheng Guo, and the 30,000 soldiers were able to disperse and resist in a hurry in order to oppose Zheng Guo's national policy of waging war against Chu, and they didn't care what the Koreans next to them thought.

After this side was disposed of, the first batch of laborers transporting grain set off, the first batch of more than 800 people, led by a township chief, and some Korean soldiers escorted.

In addition to Ze Xun, it was not long before he saw that the laborers from elsewhere were also being transported.

Either food was being delivered, or gunpowder was being delivered, and some were mending some of the potholes in front of them, followed by several large copper cannons.

In the evening, they camp in the open air outside, divide their positions one mile and one mile, light a bonfire, take out their own small clay pots, and start cooking and eating.

The iron pot has long appeared, but at this time it is still a slight luxury in daily necessities, and it is impossible for this kind of service person to carry his own iron pot, but to carry the small crockpot necessary for the expedition.

The road was relatively smooth, there was no rain, and at noon on the third day, we arrived at the camp, and the city walls of Xinzheng and the roar of artillery could already be seen in the distance.

The carpenter did as the man said, and took out a white cloth made of cotton, and tied it on his head, and waited quietly.

After a while, a person walked in front of him, looking like an officer among the Koreans in appearance and clothing, not too old, and he didn't look like a farmer, at least he was a down-and-out soldier.

The carpenter was a little nervous, and the people he came into contact with on a daily basis were generally craftsmen, and it was rare to see a sergeant class who could qualify as an officer, and he did not know what was going on on the other side.

The person on the other side was indeed a scholar, who had belonged to Han a few years ago and became a Han.

Because of his literacy and his background in the non-commissioned class, he soon became a petty officer in charge of military quarters in the army.

The family has long been depressed, and when they grew up and began to get into literacy, the doctrine of the Mohists had been printed on paper and spread everywhere, and Zheng Guo was originally a relatively open or incapable country.

After listening to several lectures, going to the village school and talking with people, he soon became an inky element.

He is a native of Zheng Di, and he has never traveled to Sishang, and later secretly became a Mo man, all of whom are one-line contacts, and his superiors are also Zheng people, who originally opened a mill in Negative Millet.

Basically, the mills in each city are semi-public strongholds of the Mo family, and they usually push and push the mills, after all, it takes a process of grinding wheat from cheap food to food, and there are also some people who buy noodles directly in the city, and the mills are opened by both craftsmen and local small merchants.

In this kind of place, there are many people coming and going every day, and the mill needs hired workers, and the hired workers are mostly the poorest people, and the permanent presence of personnel is also convenient for cover.

In addition to being a point of contact, the mill also played a role similar to that of a "church", where storytelling and literacy were usually held near the mill, and occasionally some food was given to the handouts.

After the return of the minus to Korea, the miller was transferred, nominally selling the mill, but in fact the mill was not his.

After the start of the war, the miller found this one-line contact with the quartermaster, and in order to possibly use the signal of the joint in advance, it is one thing to use it or not, and it is another thing to have it or not, after all, the barracks are not so easy to enter.

At this time, the quartermaster was naturally not called the quartermaster, and according to the "Liutao", the quartermaster in charge was subordinate to the post of "general grain".

Liutaozhong can also be regarded as having the prototype of the general staff of the army, and is called "the heart, the strategist, the astronomy, the geographical advantage, the art of war, the general grain, the fenwei, the drum banner, the humerus, the general material, the power of the man, the ears and eyes, the minions, the wings, the wanderer, the warlock, the alchemist, the law and the calculation" and many other scholars are subordinate to the commander's command.

For the grain officer, it is necessary to be literate and know the nine numbers, this scholar has naturally learned, and part of the education he received is the Mo family, and the study of counting grain in the nine numbers can be said to be outstanding compared to others, and it is also heavily used in the army.

Some of the small officials around him are either ink masters, or they have gradually become ink molecules, and the logistics department of the entire South Korean army has been infiltrated like a sieve.

Because this kind of petty officials and aristocrats naturally disdain, but they also require literacy and arithmetic, but who are they who are not nobles and can read and count all these years? The ingredients are complex, but they either identify with Shangxian, or identify with non-attack, or identify with love, or identify with equality......

However, with the increase in grain production, the increase in population, the emergence of gunpowder, and technological innovation, the scale of the war expanded.

The scale of the war expanded in a short period of time, and the aristocratic system still cultivated so many talents that it gradually became insufficient, so it could only choose to use some down-and-out soldiers and commoners to assume the duties of technical and logistical officers who were increasingly needed to expand.

At this time, there was no censorship or anything like that - there may not be a large proportion of ink writers among the soldiers, but the proportion of ink writers or sympathizers in the "technical logistics" arms such as logistics, carpenters and blacksmiths is quite high.
