Chapter 174: Recruit Ding to play martial arts, enter prison to explore thieves
As soon as the news that Chen Zhi was going to recruit family members spread, it really caused waves among the tenant farmers under the name of the Chen family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As a big family, the Chen family has a lot of land, and there is a Zuozhai village for some of the land distributed to Chen Zhi, and most of the villagers in the village rely on the Chen family's fields to live.
Chen Zhi's family is still like this, the entire Chen family has a few rooms, plus the land under the name of the clan, such a tenant farmer family is really a huge number, when the list of interested parties was sent to Chen Zhi, even he was a little surprised.
"There are thousands of them?" Looking at the list full of dense names, Chen Zhi looked at Chen Jue again, "Could it be the manpower specially arranged by a few uncles after hearing about it?" ā
"No," Chen Jue shook his head, "This is still the result of screening, young master, after the news came out that you were going to recruit family members, the whole family was boiling, not to mention tenants, even the family members and servants of other mansions were tempted, regardless of the old and young, there were all inquirers, we are following your instructions, the people who are too young and too old will be removed first, and then those with excellent physique will be selected to enter." ā
Chen Zhi nodded, looked at the list again, and saw several familiar names, including the villagers of Zuozhai Village.
Chen Jue added on the side: "You can rest assured that the people selected this time are all innocent, such as Xu Fangna and other people with ghosts, absolutely nothing." ā
After experiencing Xu Fang's incident, the Chen family's management of servants is much stricter, after all, a servant with an innocent background can affect the entire family.
However, in the past, there would be loopholes in the officials, one is that the family is huge, and it is difficult to manage, and the other important reason is that the Chen family has declined, and all aspects of management have declined.
Putting down the list, Chen Zhi still said: "There are too many people, it's really surprising." ā
Chen Jue smiled and said: "Young Master, don't you know, you are in our Chen family, that is really a pillar, who doesn't want to follow?" Originally, our mansion because of the new establishment, are all from the house of the family maids, the number of people is not much, the rules are also chaotic, the small one has long wanted to persuade you to increase the number of people, but there is no chance to mention, now the official release of the news, of course, is all parties to vote. ā
Chen Zhi nodded and handed over the list: "There are not many families recruited this time, you go back and estimate the income of the family, and see if you can free up the rations for two hundred people." ā
"Two hundred? Recruit only two hundred? "Obviously, recruiting two hundred family members, in Chen Jue's opinion, this number is a bit small.
In the cognition of this era, the family is not only a working servant, but also a variety of division of labor, from Chen Zhi's explanation, Chen Jue can already hear that the family that his young master needs is more focused on armed protection.
This is also normal, thinking of Wang Mi's matter, Chen Zhi wants to recruit family members to enhance his strength, which logically makes sense, and the imperial court's control over the countryside is not enough, and the power of the scholars and clans is huge, which makes it possible to have a huge team of family members.
When the families of many large clans are gathered together, they are one army.
Since the war of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, tenants and tenants have gradually attached themselves to the family family, becoming vain and subordinate, with the name of the family, doing the things of the soldiers, but the household registration and villages belong to the big family, even the imperial court has no reason to punish and investigate, which is one of the guarantees of the family's authority.
The team of 200 people is not much among the various ethnic groups in Pengcheng, and the number of people is still small compared to the Peng family and the Liu family, but Chen Zhi only has one room, which is normal.
But after thinking about it, Chen Zhi still said: "After we took over the Bai family's industry, the annual income has not been converted, but the number is huge, just look at the number of people in the Bai family's nursing home, you can know one or two, and only choose two hundred people, is it a little less?" ā
"There are a lot of 200 people, I will give you a screening charter, you will select 200 from 1,000 people according to the charter, which is equal to one of the five people, it is not too expensive, build the team first, and then expand the team, it is also very easy."
Chen Zhi saw Chen Jue nodding his head and remembered, and said: "In addition, don't use the standard of ordinary families to plan these two hundred people, the rations I am talking about must be a mixture of meat, vegetables, and pasta, so that they can be full, and there must be a match, so that it can be done, plus the money and food required for training, don't look at it as only two hundred people, the real investment is definitely a lot, and you have to prepare in advance." ā
Chen Jue hurriedly nodded to show that he understood, remembered all these things firmly, and asked again: "Young Master, all the medicinal materials you ordered before have been bought, should you have someone send them now?" After all, your body is the most important thing. ā
Chen Zhi smiled a little and said, "Have you already bought it?" Then send it to the room and decoct the medicine according to the recipe I gave. "This is what he ordered to come down when he was lying in the ice tower.
The medicinal materials bought, on the one hand, to recuperate the body, make up for the muscle and bone damage in the battle with Wang Mi, and on the other hand, to prepare for the strengthening of the body.
After Wang Mi's incident, Chen Zhi realized the necessity of his own force, not to mention anything else, if he had a little foundation at that time, with the Divine Speed Talisman, maybe he could directly take down Wang Mi, saving all kinds of later.
In addition, after the boiled medicinal materials are diluted, they are actually useful, and they can be used as medicinal food to tonify the selected family members, so Chen Zhi will tell Chen Jue that the rations of two hundred people cost a lot, so he should be mentally prepared in advance.
Waiting for Chen Jue to lead the order to leave, Chen Zhi's sister Chen Man trotted in.
The Lying Ice Tower was strictly guarded to prevent regeneration accidents, all the people who came and went were men, and it was inconvenient for the female relatives to visit, Chen Man had not seen Chen Zhi for a few days, and when he heard that his brother had returned home, he came to visit as soon as possible.
"Big brother, I heard that you were injured, is it serious?" As soon as Chen Man came, his face was full of worry.
"It's fine." Chen Zhi saw his little sister and his mood became relaxed.
The little girl has been eating well lately, she is no longer skinny, her face is ruddy, her eyes are flickering, and she looks delicate and cute.
Chen Man looked up and down, and saw that her brother was really intact, so she breathed a sigh of relief, although she was young, she also knew that her family could live a good life, thanks to this eldest brother, her mother had emphasized it more than once, but compared to these, Chen Man paid more attention to Chen Zhi's care and love for herself.
"That's good, big brother should pay attention to his body."
Chen Man doesn't understand the truth, but she understands one thing very well, that is, this big brother who was fierce in the past is now quite spoiled by himself, so in front of Chen Zhi, he doesn't have many scruples about talking.
After saying this, she sat down on the chair rather unladylikely, and asked curiously: "Big brother, is it true that you killed a big thief outside this time?" ā
"Who did you listen to?" Chen Zhi asked rhetorically, he also wanted to know how it was spread in the city.
Chen Zhi knew that the news that he had scolded Wang Mi for suicide had not been circulated on a large scale and was controlled within a range, but such news could not be suppressed for a long time, and it would be spread sooner or later.
"It's the sisters and sisters who came to play." Chen Man picked up the fruit on the table and ate it, with a smile on his face, "Recently, the sisters in the clan have often come to play with me, and they are good to me!" ā
The sisters in Chen Man's mouth are the ladies of the Chen family's rooms, and they are all daughters in each room, but they all rushed to play with Chen Man regardless of size, in order to compete for the status of playmates, they are all kinds of intrigues and house fights, and even Chen Zhi faintly heard that a cousin was framed by her sisters because of the competition for playmate qualifications, and she completely lost her position, and she washed her face with tears all day long.
In this regard, he let it go and did not pay attention to it, the only requirement was to strictly order the family to be filthy and dark, and not to show it in front of Chen Man.
Because of this, in Chen Man's eyes, these sisters and sisters are all kind-hearted playmates, living in happiness and joy every day.
"Even the ladies in the boudoir know about it, and the news is almost there."
As soon as he thought of this, Chen Zhi asked again, but this time Chen Man didn't know what to do, and he didn't know the specific situation.
"I only know that Wang Mi died because of me, but I don't know the details, which shows that the reprimand has indeed been suppressed, so it's okay to save trouble." Chen Zhi figured out the general situation, so he no longer paid attention to it, and accompanied his sister to say a word.
Soon, a servant came over with news from Zhao Xing, saying that in two days, Chen Zhi could be arranged to meet the captured thief.
"After the meritorious service, this efficiency is high enough!"
With this in mind, Chen Zhi planned the next plan.
"Big brother, you get busy first, I'll go find the second brother and them."
When the little sister Chen Man saw it, she knew that Chen Zhi had something to do, so she said goodbye obediently and went out in a hurry.
Looking at the back of his sister leaving, Chen Zhi's heart was warm, and he truly realized that he was carrying a family, at least a family.
"Maybe it's a good choice to have a family to cultivate, after all, since ancient times, the royal family has only been three or four hundred years, but the family can be inherited for thousands ......of years."
Thinking like this, he concentrated on it and noticed that the lottery holder was about to be filled with three more bars of gold liquid.
"This Wang Mi incident will at least help to spread the name ......"
Two days later, Zhao Xing's words came true, and it was his acquaintance who was sent to pick up Chen Zhi.
Wandering Zhou Tian.
This You Zhi had helped Chen Zhi a lot in the past, but this time, Zhou Tian did not dare to regard himself as an elder and was extremely respectful.
Chen Zhi immediately said: "Uncle Zhou doesn't need to be polite, you and my second uncle can't be rebellious, that is my elder." ā
"How can this be done, the virtuous nephew is now a famous person in Pengcheng, how can I make a mistake?" Having said that, it can be seen that Chen Zhi is so polite to himself, Zhou Tian felt that he had more face, and a thought jumped.
Picking up Chen Zhi, he didn't need to come forward, because he wanted to ask Chen Zhi for help, so he took the initiative to take over this errand, and now seeing that Chen Zhi is so easy to speak, he is thinking about when to speak.
However, he knew that it was not yet time, so he took Chen Zhi to the prison first, and after he recognized his identity, after entering, Zhou Tian asked again: "Let's go directly to see the thief?" ā
Chen Zhi shook his head: "I'm not busy, I heard that the thieves' armor and weapons have been confiscated and put here, I'll go and see these things first." ā
What do you do with these?
Zhou Tian was puzzled, but he thought that Chen Zhi was just a whim, so naturally he would not object.
"Anyway, this Chen family is the seventh younger, just come to the prison for a while, just let him be happy."
