You must know that if you really insist on chasing and fighting, you will either kill people ruthlessly, and you will not be afraid, or you will easily be trapped in a mess because you don't kill them, and the consequences will be difficult to say at that time.

Of course, if you lose, you won't lose, and these twenty or so people will not necessarily suffer against the elite border army, let alone a group of peasants with fork rakes.

Liang Xing smiled at this time and said to the other party: "Now you are suffering, right?" If you can't say anything well, you have to use a fork and a rake, and you can't fight, we really have to do it, are you people enough? Now listen, send a few good men over and tell us what you're going to do. ”

There was already a panic, I really didn't expect the people here to be able to fight like this, just so many people rushed over, almost in the blink of an eye, they were all stacked down, and now they were lying on the ground moaning with blood all over their bodies, the families of those injured were already anxious, several women and old people wanted to squeeze over and help people, Liang Xing gave an order, Li Laibin ordered the long knife and the pikeman to poke forward, almost stabbing the women to the ground, then the mountain people knew that these people were playing really, a bad one may really kill a lot of people, and suddenly it was a lot more honest, A quarter of an hour later, three old men were promoted to come together, and by this time there was no ferocity on their faces, only a look of trembling.

"The old man came and talked."

Zhang Han looked calm at this time, and his smile was very amiable, Li Shenming pursed his lips, Liang Xing and these people were all led by Zhang Han, and of course Zhang Han was able to use such a method, and he came out to pretend to be a good person.

"The grass people knock to see the childe."

The three old men were all gray-haired, kneeling on the ground to salute Zhang Han, Zhang Han was not in a hurry to call them up at this time, so that they knelt and talked, there could be some subtle changes in psychology, he didn't know what the mountain people were going to do now, it was better to be safe.

"What are you doing this for?"

Although Zhang Han was kind and pleasant, the three old men were flustered for a while, and after half a sound, they finally made this matter clear.

"There were originally two stoves in our village, but now they have long been abandoned, but the iron class of more than thirty taels per Chinese New Year's Eve still falls on our heads, and each household has to share more than five dollars, is this not wrong? Those who abandoned the stove have long been nowhere to be found, and we can't find it, and we can't think about it. Now this furnace is still standing at the boundary of our village, if the business is not good one day, the proprietor you also abandon the furnace and leave, this iron class has to fall in our village, but we can't afford to pay, we think, either there was a scene, while the stove is not erected to ask the proprietor to find another place, or get some silver in advance to divide the family, even if the iron class is handed over in the future, it is not too tired......

"I see." Zhang Han nodded peacefully, and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "I'm not an unreasonable person, why bother making such a scene?" ”

Today, he just came and was blocked like this, but it is conceivable that someone must have been ambushed a long time ago, watching day and night, just waiting for the proprietor to come and make a scene, these mountain people are also interesting.

"Back to the proprietor, every village is like this, but there are people who make trouble, and they can't get anything, in the end, there are still many people, and there are some ...... who are not afraid of fighting."

"Alas, you are also pitiful."

There are few good men and women who come to open iron mines, and it is impossible for a family like Han Tong to compensate these mountain people, and the bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty is rotten and ridiculous, when the furnace was first established, the iron class was levied, although the silver was not much, a blast furnace was only taxed more than ten taels a year, and the profit was ridiculously low, because of the lack of development of various minerals in the early Ming Dynasty, the mining was still encouraging, so the tax amount was very low, of course, this is also related to the general environment in the early Ming Dynasty, and the commercial tax of all walks of life was very low. It is completely opposite to the fine management and heavy commercial tax of the Song Dynasty, but there must be a disadvantage to Xingyi, the iron class is not high, but as long as you set up the furnace, once it is abandoned, you have to go through a lot of processes to scrap it, where do those bureaucrats want to take care of such a thing, the furnace is wasted and the money class is collected, and the officials and officials plus the help of the idle Lijia are not allowed to pay.

In the entire Dongshan here, there are no less than 100 furnaces that have been abandoned for more than 200 years, and of course these iron classes continue to be collected, no wonder the mountain people immediately put out this kind of group fight as soon as they heard that Zhang Han and others were going to set up a stove here.

"I must set up the stove." Zhang Han said to the three of them: "I have spent a lot of money here, and the place is not big enough, of course, I will not abandon the furnace in the short term." However, I understand that you are worried, but it is not justified in giving you money for nothing, and I need a lot of men here, and I need to open up and expand the place, and your strong laborers should only do things, and give you two cents a day and three meals, and the half-grown boys can also come and do some chores, and the women will come and choose the vegetables, and each of them will get a penny a day, and I will be full of food, so that when my stove can be used, your family will have to earn a few taels of silver, so that you will have to give the silver, and I will have your help. Both sides rejoiced. If you want to take my money for nothing, then you can see if you can fight in a group fight, anyway, I will not give you the cost of soup and medicine, I have to go to the city to complain, and the county will take you to play the board and shackle, and I will talk about it after I think it clearly. ”

Zhang Han said quickly and clearly on the phone, the three old men were pushed out not only by old age, but also by knowledge, and when Zhang Han finished speaking, he was already lying on the ground and kowtowing, of course, he had agreed on behalf of the village.

Next, the mountain people took the injured people away, Zhang Han showed a lot of benevolence at this time, and ordered people to take a few taels of silver to these wounded people, and ask a doctor to bandage them, so as not to lose their lives due to infection, as soon as the silver was taken, those mountain people were bright-eyed, eager to fly over to take it, looking at their ragged faces and yellow muscles, Zhang Han knew that the life of the Lingqiu mountain people was very difficult, it seems that this mining area is not rich one person, but only a small group of people.

"Cai Jiu, you first expand the place these days, open the mountain and dig stones, the planning is at least to build five blast furnaces, the place should be expanded tenfold, the living area is still built as it is now, but the scale must also be expanded, the mountain road can be leveled where it will be leveled, the carriage and horses I will send over one after another, manpower on the head, find a few more people in the village, not afraid of spending money, a hundred people to do things and a thousand people to do things are different, but the promoter has to work hard, the efficiency is not necessarily more people are efficient, if the promotion is not lawful, more people are just a waste of manpower. How to raise, according to what I told you last time, divide things into levels and aspects, such as life, production, safety, entertainment and human relations, each aspect has a correspondence, such as entertainment human feelings, it looks like a joke, what does the mine director do? But if you don't do it well, the miners will play every day for fun, fight, and have trouble with the people. Then down is to look at people, people are also virtuous and stupid, at a glance the impression of the past is good and bad, this is not accurate, you have to build a file, record words and deeds, it is best to have a few helpers to help you, and then also from all aspects of observation, some people are suitable for doing things, some people can speak, some people like to do a lot of things, a hundred kinds of rice to raise a thousand kinds of people, you have to see it. These words, not only with you alone, I have said in detail about everyone who is in charge of things independently, and I will compile a booklet for people to study in the future, Cai Jiu, you listen carefully, how much you can digest and how much you can use, it depends on yourself. ”

Zhang Han said very plainly, but every sentence had to be digested by Cai Jiu for a long time, Zhang Han also deliberately mentioned it, Cai Jiu is still relatively young, and his energy is very good, if this person can be brought out, he can be slowly used in the future, at least the Lingqiu Iron Field can be handed over to this person with confidence.

Many people don't understand that management is not a random thing, the same people, why some people can manage people well while sitting and drinking tea, and some people are hoarse, and the result is a mess? There are dozens or hundreds of things every day, and the subordinates must also be classified into categories, and they should be told to do things according to their specialties, so that they can get twice the result with half the effort.

Of course, this knowledge of employing people cannot be mastered by Zhang Han in this time and space by reading, but the experience of Zhang Han in later generations who have been rolling in the shopping mall for more than ten years, and of course there are some things that are obtained from books, but the things obtained from books are actually shallow, and in the end they are more practical and useful than what they actually figured out.

For Cai Jiu or Li Shenming and others, Zhang Han is like a gift, and there are some things that people who have been in the officialdom for many years may not be as shrewd as Zhang Han and can tell the world so clearly.

"Okay, Brother Zunlu," Zhang Han turned his head to Li Shenming and smiled, "Let's wait for news in the city." In addition, Liang Xing, you take people everywhere to make a list, it is best to go to neighboring counties, there are quite a lot of miners around here, not limited to Lingqiu, you don't have to be afraid to run errands! ”

"Male waves are all over the street, female waves are leaning against the door frame, donkey waves are croaking, dog waves are running and breaking legs......" Liang Xing smiled: "Let's be puppies." ”

Zhang Han scolded with a smile: "You talk a lot of nonsense." ”

He looked at it again, and his face couldn't help but show a mixture of excitement and pride.

In front of him, this is another foundation, and when the land is expanded to more than 100 acres, dozens of rows of houses have been built, more than 5,000 miners have been recruited, and then five blast furnaces have been erected.

If Zhang Han's improvement method is successful, there will be at least five million catties of refined iron a year, and there are also a number of catties of steel, and the quality of the refined iron he produces should be far above the ordinary Jin iron, not under the Fujian iron, and even better than the Fujian iron, in terms of output, it may account for a quarter or one-fifth of the total output of the Ming Dynasty, this achievement is really not small.
