Unexpectedly, Wu Shigong's question about how to face Mongolian compatriots like He Fei was inexplicably solved.

On the morning of the military training, Wu Shigong ignored the three or four hundred people who had gathered in the school yard to participate in the military training, and hid directly in the inner hall of the yamen. He called Shumo over and asked Shumo to inform He Fei and them: the number of soldiers in the Terracotta Division is gone, and if He Fei and them are willing, Wu Shigong will take them as domestic slaves and become Wu Shigong's property, that is, the guards of the gambling house. Unexpectedly, after listening to Wu Shigong's arrangement, Shumo easily went out to confess, and easily came back to say: All people are willing to become Wu Shigong's domestic slaves.

Wu Shigong was immediately a little impressed by Shumo, Shumo's ability to do things has improved very quickly! Unexpectedly, after listening to Wu Shigong's praise, Shumo said to Wu Shigong: Being a house slave is actually much better than being a soldier of the Soldiers and Horses Division, and a fool is unwilling to be a house slave.

Is it better to be a slave than a civil servant? Wu Shigong couldn't understand this logic. If you look closely, it is. In the Ming Dynasty, the rich and noble families basically did not recruit domestic slaves, but if they did, they would also fulfill the responsibility of the master of the family. The master's family has to give these domestic slaves high wages and high welfare, and they have to pay for birth, old age, sickness and death, and even domestic slaves have to pay for their daughters-in-law. Moreover, the work of domestic slaves was relatively easy, because there were no days off in the Ming Dynasty, and only a limited number of holidays could be taken off each year. As a result, I have to go to work almost all year round. House slaves, on the other hand, are basically allowed to take one day off every ten years (that is, ten days). Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty, the scene of the little master of a rich and noble family wanting to sell the little woman who buried his father would never appear. If the little master of a wealthy family takes a fancy to the little woman, as long as he reveals his meaning slightly, maybe the little woman will happily follow the little young master, maybe she can't even take care of her father lying on the ground. Of course, in the Ming Dynasty, the sale of children and daughters did happen from time to time, but the whereabouts of these people were basically to be the maids of small families, or simply to be sold into the Qinglou.

After letting go of his worries, Wu Shigong no longer hid in the inner hall, and came to the school with his books and ink. There was a commotion on the school grounds, and those people were divided into several piles. Inform a bunch of small flags and general flags that came to Yamen today; a bunch of soldiers who participated in military training; A bunch of new soldiers; Hefei and a bunch of them. Seeing that the number of people in He Fei's pile seemed to be a little wrong, Wu Shigong asked Shumo next to him: How many people are there? Shumo replied, "One hundred and forty-six." Wu Shigong thought to himself: The unemployment rate in the Ming Dynasty seems to be very serious. But he has promised to take them all as house slaves, so it is difficult to regret it.

So, Wu Shigong called Wang Baihu over and told him to divide those who participated in the military training into a good team first, and now, start the military training according to the military training. Then, Wu Shigong called those general flags and small flags into the lobby. After these general flags and small flags kowtowed to Wu Shigong, Wu Shigong asked them to hand in the answers to each of the three questions. Unexpectedly, no one reacted.

Strangely, Wu Shigong hurriedly asked the reason, it turned out that it was not that these general flags and small flags did not pay attention to the instructions of their commanders, and did not prepare for these problems. It's that they're basically illiterate, and they memorize the answers to those questions. Wu Shigong can only sigh that the literacy campaign in the Ming Dynasty is really going to be strengthened. Wu Shigong doesn't know, don't talk about those general flags and small flags, even those hundred households, there are not many literate people, as for the shop materials and gang materials handed over to Wu Shigong, they are basically written by those hundred households looking for literacy. Wu Shigong didn't have time to work hard with these small flags and general flags, so he asked these general flags and small flags to go to the scribe's room, and let those scribes transcribe the answers to their questions and then hand them over to Wu Shigong to read.

At this moment, a guard from the Xue Mansion came to Wu Shigong, and it turned out that his father-in-law Xue Lian had something important to come to him. Wu Shigong followed the guard to Xue Lian's office, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies. After meeting his father-in-law Xue Lian and Master Zhang, Xue Lian told Wu Shigong that there was an accident now: the Shuntian Mansion sent a letter saying that the Shuntian Mansion could not arrange so many manpower, and at most it could only arrange a thousand conscripts. Therefore, after his father-in-law Xue Lian knew that Wu Shigong had gathered the military training team today, he wanted to use this team, and in addition, Xue Lian went to Beijing to squeeze some manpower, and even mobilized some domestic slaves and Zhuang Ding in Xue's mansion, so that the manpower would barely be enough.

Wu Shigong refused his father-in-law Xue Lian's request, and before his father-in-law Xue Lian became angry, Wu Shigong expressed his reasons:

First of all, Wu Shigong gave his father-in-law Xue Lian an idea. Didn't Xue Lian open a porridge field to relieve the victims? We should not give soup porridge in vain, but let those who drink porridge also devote themselves to disaster relief work. Disaster relief is not only the work of the government, but also the victims of the disaster must be self-reliant. A word woke up the dreamer, and Wu Shigong's idea suddenly reminded his father-in-law Xue Lian. Xue Lian is not unaware of the practice of cash-for-work, but in previous disaster relief work, this has always been Xue Lian's blind spot. If the manpower of the disaster victims is effectively utilized, the problem of manpower for disaster relief can be completely solved.

Secondly, Wu Shigong explained to his father-in-law Xue Lian that he would use this team in the near future. Wu Shigong explained what he was going to do to his father-in-law Xue Lian, and got Xue Lian's acquiescence;

Zuihou, Wu Shigong said that after his own work is done, if his father-in-law Xue Lian still needs it, Wu Shigong can definitely use this team in disaster relief work.

After listening to his son-in-law's words, Xue Lian finally let go of his heart and solved a big trouble in his heart. Seeing that his father-in-law Xue Lian's face slowed down, and then changed to a serious direction, Wu Shigong hurriedly said goodbye. Can't you hide if you can't mess with yourself? In fact, Xue Lian is becoming more and more satisfied with this son-in-law, and with Wu Shigong's help, Xue Lian has indeed solved a lot of problems.

Returning to the Yamen of the Soldiers and Horses, Wu Shigong called Xu Yimu over. Seeing Xu Yanmu's expression and fluttering footsteps when he came in, Wu Shigong asked Xu Yanmu about his physical condition with concern. It turned out that Xu Yimu didn't rest well last night, and for the work of the Soldiers and Horses, he strengthened communication with Wu Shigong's seventh brother Wu Shili in the Qinglou last night. After listening to the reason, Wu Shigong was very envious in his heart.

Knowing that Xu Yimu was fine, Wu Shigong asked Xu Yimu to notify the hundred households directly under him to hold a meeting in the afternoon to discuss the distribution of the benefits of the ruins.

But as soon as he returned to Yamen after lunch, Wu Shigong was blocked by the three deputy commanders Zhou Shikun, Yu Lian and Ruan Xiong. What about weishenme? The three deputy commanders were here to fight for their own interests. This Nancheng Terracotta Division is everyone's Terracotta Division, and everyone has to share it together if there is meat to eat. In fact, when Wu Shigong asked Xu Yimu to pass on the news, he knew that there was no impermeable wall in the world, and he deliberately passed the news to the three deputy commanders.

Of course, Wu Shigong pretended to be in a tone for a while, and Zuihou pretended to be helpless and agreed to the request of the three deputy commanders. Wu Shigong's idea of handling the internal relations of the Terracotta Division is basically based on the principle of valuing harmony.

At the afternoon meeting, all the deputy commanders and Baihu were present, and there was a fierce dispute at the meeting, and Zuihou, under the mediation of Wu Shigong, finally reached a compromise. The shops affected by the disaster were divided into 17 parts, Wu Shigong himself accounted for one, and all the 14 hundred households of the Terracotta Division (the 100 households of the pro-soldiers had been disbanded) each accounted for one share, and two copies were given to the military training team, because they had many people. The 100 households under the direct jurisdiction of the command were handed over to the commander 100 taels of silver, and the deputy commander directly under the jurisdiction was handed over 40 taels to Wu Shigong. zuihou, Wu Shigong also generously said that he would hand over his share to the yamen scribes led by Xu Yimu to deal with. Xu Zhimu immediately happily accepted the work of transforming civilian duties into military positions.

Then, Wu Shigong didn't care how they were distributed, he knew that the general flags and small flags had been transcribed by the scribe, so he met them one by one and inquired in detail. During the inquiry, he focused on understanding the problem of gangs in the southern city.

In the next two days, Wu Shigong basically spent his free time observing the military training of these soldiers, and he was surprised to find that in the military training, the best performance and the most diligent was the weekly patrol. So, Wu Shigong divided the military training team into three temporary hundred households, let Wang Baihu lead one, Zhou Xun also led one, and Zuihou Wu Shigong let his fourth brother-in-law lead it privately. Moreover, those soldiers who performed well in military training were also arranged in the positions of the small flags and the general flags of these temporary hundred households.

At noon on the third day of the military training, Wu Shigong first sent people to Hu Ming, a hundred households in Dongchang, and Li Pengfei, a hundred households in Jinyiwei, to inform them, and then sent people to the three deputy commanders to let their soldiers cooperate. Then, Wu Shigong ordered the gate to be sealed and no one was allowed to enter. After all the military trainers had finished the dinner specially sent from the restaurant outside, Wu Shigong gathered all the military trainers and announced to them: "The summer offensive of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Command Division to sweep away pornography and fight crime has officially begun. ”
