The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 198 Backer
Huang Sifang knew Mrs. Li San, a woman who said that "following the 'Red Banner Army' has a way out."

Of course, I will remember her meticulous care.

Mrs. Li San has a deep hatred with Jiannu, and the "Red Banner Army" is her benefactor and her future and hope.

She has been able to read some words, is serious and courageous in her work.

When Huang Sifang recruited people, he first thought of Li Sanniang. He believed that Li Sanniang had the conditions to lead the female lurkers in the "Banner Guard".

So Huang Sifang talked to Mrs. Li San and clarified the functions and development direction of the "Flag Guard" as well as the focus of future work.

Mrs. Li San knew that the "Banner Guard" was the secret "Red Banner Army", of course she agreed to join without hesitation, which means that she will be a public family member who eats the imperial food in the Gongmen, and can get one tael or five silver plus five buckets of wheat monthly rate.

The identity of the 'Banner Guard' is hidden. Li Sanniang's public identity is a female leader and an activist who supports the army. She is about to lead dozens of women to learn new livelihood techniques, and then she must lead these dozens of women to teach at least 2000 people. people.

This technique is very simple, but Huang Han understands the process but is not good at mastering the heat. In the end, Mrs. Li San and several women summed up the experience of how to roast sweet potatoes sweet and delicious.

In half a day, dozens of women roasted dozens of catties of sweet potatoes and ate them. Everyone thought that the roasted sweet potatoes were sweet, refreshing, and delicious, and they also suffocated hunger.

When they learned that they would go to the city or even the capital to sell roasted sweet potatoes during the slack season, they all had mixed joys and sorrows, and chattered. They were very happy to have the opportunity to earn money for the family, but worried that they would be bullied because they were unfamiliar with the place.

A woman who was waiting for the "Red Banner Army" outside Zunhua City with Mrs. Li San asked: "San Niang, this roasted sweet potato is really delicious. If it only sells for four or five yuan a catty, the business will be good. It's just a large group of us. Is it okay for a woman to leave her hometown?"

"What's wrong? We have the 'Red Banner Army' as our backer, who are we afraid of?"

"That's what I said, but the yamen servants in the city and the green skins on the street are very bad. We women and Taoists still feel uneasy when we show our faces and do business."

"Master Liu, you are also the one who escaped from the Jiannu knife. If it wasn't for the 'Red Banner Army' to feed us, we would have starved to death long ago. The owner of the family didn't ask us to go to the battlefield. It was just a small business. Forget it, if you give us back our wages, the yamen servants and Qingpi will be worse than Jiannu?"

"That's right, there's nothing to be afraid of if we lose our lives, we'll all listen to you anyway."

"The roasted sweet potatoes will definitely sell well. If we do this well, we will really earn money for the 'Red Banner Army'. What's the point of leaving our hometown for this? Besides, Yongping Mansion is not our hometown!"

"Yes! As long as you can earn money, where is the loess not burying people? Sanniang, I decided to follow you to the capital."

Listening to the women's discussion, Huang Han felt that Mrs. Li San's speech was somewhat convincing, so he decided to help her establish her prestige.

He called Mrs. Li San and said: "Your remarks just now are very convincing, you might as well speak loudly for everyone to hear."

Mrs. Li San blushed immediately, and said: "General, my family has some superficial opinions, I'm afraid I can't talk about them."

Huang Han was going to see if this woman had the ability to lead. A leader must first be eloquent and convincing. The job now should be to explain the arrangement of the "Red Banner Army" and dispel the women's fear of being bullied.

He said: "It doesn't matter, say out loud the charter that I told you, I am optimistic about you!"

Seeing Huang Han's encouraging eyes, Mrs. Li San felt a lot more at ease. She cleared her throat and said, "Sisters, it's an organized operation when we go out to sell sweet potatoes. Dozens of people live together at night. It's no good." Scared.

When selling sweet potatoes during the day, red flags will be planted on the car, and we will tell everyone openly that we are raising military salaries and selling sweet potatoes for the 'Red Flag Army'. Anyone who dares to bully us and wants to rob us of money, sweet potatoes or stoves can be robbed by them.

We are all women, there is no need to fight desperately with those wild men, we just need to remember their faces and find out who they are. "

Huang Han took the opportunity to intervene at this time: "The hooligans and gangsters robbed you of your things. I will definitely make them double the compensation, and I will make all those who do it kneel in front of your roasted sweet potato booth for a whole day. If anyone dares to fight Hurt you, I guarantee that their heads will be hung at the gate of the city.”

After speaking, Huang Han signaled Mrs. Li San to continue, and the women heard the domineering statement of the "Red Banner Army" general, and immediately felt that they were organized people, and immediately felt a sense of security.

This is not Huang Han's big talk at all, he can be so brazen as to bully a woman with a roasted sweet potato stall, even a hooligan like this should be the worst in this industry.

If they dare to hurt people, the "Red Banner Army" will kill people unceremoniously. After such a person is killed, the common people applaud and applaud, and there will naturally be someone from the government to settle it.

Mrs. Li San was encouraged by Huang Han to speak more forcefully, she said:
"Sisters, did you hear that, we have a natal family, and the thousands of soldiers of the 'Red Banner Army' are our natal brothers, any hooligans and gangsters who make us angry will not be able to eat and walk around..."

This is the case in this era. There are people in the natal family who are the backers of all women. Now their backers are the "Red Banner Army" who beat two thousand Jiannu to throw away their helmets and armor. The "Red Banner Army" who did it, with this backing, who are they afraid of?

Huang Han designed the image of the roasted sweet potato mobile stall. In order to maximize the use of the oven, he also considered that the time from morning to evening market is too long and it is too hard to do business alone.

Arrange two women to share a booth as a group, and they can freely choose the matching time. When is one staring at each other, and when are both of them together?It can be reasonably arranged according to the number of customer flows, and their compensation is [-]% of the turnover.

The mobile booth is a two-wheeled cart loaded with an oven, and several lockable cabinets are designed on the cart.

There is a large piece of tarpaulin coated with tung oil and eight or nine ash poles. In summer, this thing can use the ash pole clips designed on the car to support the tarpaulin for sunshade. In winter, it can block part of the cold wind, and it can support tent mode in rainy days. .

Each car has a red flag embroidered with words. For example, the red flag on Mrs. Li San's model car is embroidered with the Arabic numerals zero zero and one.

Arabic numerals are simple and easy to learn. The first arithmetic lesson Huang Han gave to the "Red Banner Army" was to teach everyone to write Arabic numerals. Xu Guangqi saw these numbers and thought they were simple and practical, and he planned to promote them.

In the middle of the red flag, there are three big golden characters "Roasted Sweet Potatoes", and there are two lines of small characters on both sides. On the left is "raise salary for the Red Flag Army" and on the right is "serve the common people".
