Guide to Traveling through the Northern Song Dynasty.

Chapter 79 0075 [Daming Village]

Down the mountain.

The civil servants sent by the household case and the military case are called hand points.

In the mid-Northern Song Dynasty, the status of hand points was higher than that of the post, and now it has been reduced to the deputy of the post, somewhat similar to the deputy chief of each department of the county government.

These two deputy section chiefs accompanied the army all the way, and they were here to take charge of the army's money and food accounts, and they had to handle the seized thieves.

That time in Xiabai Village was an illegal operation, and Xiang Zhixian's servants were breaking the rules.

At this time, I heard that the officers and soldiers broke through the bandit village, how could the two deputy section chiefs bear it?Immediately clamored to go up the mountain to take over the stolen goods.

As soon as I got out of the tent, I was stopped.

Lu Shou furiously reprimanded: "Is it possible for you to rebel?"

Bai Sheng brought someone over with the wine jar in his arms, nodded and bowed his head, and said, "Take your hands off to calm down, the remnants of bandits have not been caught yet, Zhu Dutou is afraid that you two will be in danger, please stay on the boat for two more days."

Chen Ziyi slapped his head violently: "I remember, I did promise."

Ten guan iron coins are more than 60 catties, and many people have received more than [-] catties of rewards, and they have to work hard to transport them back home.

Bai Sheng threw the knife to the archer, fetched a jug of fine wine, took it in himself and said, "I'm thirsty too, let's share a few more glasses with the two of you."

The population is a bit small!
Last night, the black lights were out of control, not to mention the officers and soldiers took action, the bandits trampled on each other and died a few.

The capital, deputy capital, ten generals, meritorious service, and those who died in battle will receive other rewards and pensions.For example, Chen Ziyi and Zhang Guangdao, as capitals, gave an additional three hundred guan as rewards.

Zhu Ming handed out rewards on the spot, and Zhang Guangdao and the archers who led the attack each rewarded them with fifteen guan.Those who were injured were rewarded three times more.The four unlucky ones who were injured have already been sent to pick them up.

Bai Sheng was also dizzy, got up and went outside the tent, and told the archers, "Stay here. If these two birdmen wake up, let them continue to drink. The little white man sent twenty jugs of fine wine, enough for them to drink." A few days."

"Li Wangfu." Byford said hoarsely.

Cao Shoufen couldn't help complaining: "Since Zhu Du's head was seriously injured, he was able to go down the mountain in person. He is really a strange person in the world."

Zhang Guangdao immediately searched among the captives. He and Yao Fang were the ones who brought Heifengzhai. Because of their low status, they were not liquidated.

Who the hell would believe this?

Some archers were arranged to carry reward money down the mountain.

Excluding those who were killed by officers and soldiers and those who were sent to the county government, there were only 694 people left in Zhu Ming's territory.Among them, 251 were adult men, 268 were adult women, and 15 were children under the age of 175.

Zhu Ming then ordered: "All beheaded, and their families will escort them to the county government."

Frightened, Byford turned around and ran away, and was immediately thrust back by the archer next to him.

Zhang Guangdao just sneered and didn't choose any of them.

Ju Ming was very considerate and organized them into groups according to their native places.After returning to the county seat, go back to the hometown in twos and threes to avoid being robbed halfway.

Bowl after bowl, non-stop persuasion, non-stop hard pouring.

With a knife in his hand, Bai Sheng held a drink in his bow behind him, blocking the road tightly.

Heifengzhai and its surrounding areas were later renamed Daming Village.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of rewards, quickly find out the population and acres of land in your own territory.

Baskets and baskets of bandit goods were carried out by the archers.

Zhu Ming shouted: "Are the Tian family brothers here? There are also the two brothers who erased the official seal of Ma'er for me at the riverside."

"..."

He got more than 300 rewards this time, and he has already decided to go to Qinfeng Road to join the army. What happens in Heifengzhai is none of his business.

On the mountain.

In order to quickly stabilize the situation, Ju Ming had to be generous.

The six fell to the ground, thanking each other again and again.

He is finally doing big things, and the subordinate officials of the county government can handle it well, and he is no longer the old country thug.

Tian Er, Tian San, and Lu Wang rushed out happily, but Ding Dafang died in the chaos last night, and his son came out to visit on behalf of his father.

Zhang Guangdao said gratefully, "Thank you Dutou!"

After temporarily selecting six Baojia chiefs, Zhu Ming said to them: "You have to do things well. If you do things well, you will be rewarded in the future. Today's [-] mu of land is just a gift."

"You can handle it yourself." Zhu Ming gave him enough face.

Zhu Ming asked, "Name."

Even the miscellaneous soldiers and civilian husbands at the foot of the mountain can each receive several hundred dollars.

Suddenly footsteps came from outside, and they shut up in fright.

Archer stepped forward with a torch to help them illuminate.

Zhu Ming wrote the pen himself, and Chen Ziyi helped, and they were the only two who could read and write.

These people were so blessed that they crawled towards Zhang Guangdao one after another, frantically kowtowing to ask him for help.

Cao held back his hands and said, "We came to take charge of the money and food in the army, but we only got out but not in, and we didn't get half a penny, and we were full of wine!"

As soon as they opened their mouths to say a few words, they were forced to drink by Archer, and they were not even given food.If they don't pretend to be asleep, they are afraid that they will drink to death!

We will attract more and more people in the future.

"I...I'm thirsty too." Cao looked at the knife in Bai Sheng's hand, and retreated step by step in fright.

As soon as this remark came out, the bandits suddenly boiled up.

Zhang Guangdao said suddenly: "Brother Yao's wife usually treats me well, can I spare her life? She...is related to Yang Jun."

The archers bowed down in unison, completely devoted to Ju Ming.In the future, if the government persecutes her too much, she will drag her family with her and flee to seek refuge in Heifengzhai.

Even if Zhu Ming monopolizes most of the money, even if Zhu Ming occupies the tea mountain and land, they still feel that Zhu Ming is very generous.

Simply fooling the government as a fool!

The soldiers can get more than ten guan, enough for them to go home and buy several acres of paddy fields.If you change to mountain land, you can buy more than ten acres!

Cao split his hands and said: "I will be loyal to the court and kill thieves. I am not afraid of danger."

"Keep your voice down," Lu Shou said, "How much better is Xiangzhi County? Xiabai Village's wealth has been taken away from Xiangzhi County. According to my opinion, this Zhu, Xiangzhi County, and that Except for the old white members, the three of them have discussed it a long time ago. Each of us will get a share, and everyone will make money, but the two of us are suffering."

"That guy named Zhu is ambitious. He's young, but he's not small. He wants to occupy Heifengzhai by himself!" Cao Shou said angrily.

There are 184 people in total, 105 mu of tea mountain, 3 points, 65 mu of Zhongtian, 2 points, and 401 mu of Xiatian, 4 points.Due to the night attack and burning of the bandit village, most of the property has been burned, leaving only 78 pennies and 401 pennies of iron money.

The four of them were almost knocked out by happiness, and hurriedly kowtowed to admit their master.

This is not only a reward, but also an honor for them to kill thieves.

"I listened to Brother Zhu!"

This is to prepare for registration of household Qimin.

Down the mountain.

Those rascals were even more happy, most of them acted as small bosses, and they could receive thirty or forty strings of rewards.Some people served as the deputy capital and even received more than 200 guan.

"I can't hear it!"

Zhu Ming said to Zhang Guangdao: "Pick out those who have good friendship with you, and you can spare their death penalty."

Their father belonged to the leader and died when he plundered Shangbai Village, but the land had not been taken away.

In the evening, the household registration was finally compiled, and Zhu Ming, who hadn't slept last night, just wanted to lie in bed and have a good rest.

Zhu Ming turned around with his sword in hand, and said to the rest of the captives: "I don't like to kill indiscriminately. You are all forced to be thieves. Follow me from now on and make sure that your life will be better and better. Males over 15 years old will be rewarded with one mu Land! Girls over 15 years old will be rewarded with half an acre of land! Those who want to claim the rewarded land, come and register their names later.”

"Xiang Zhixian has promised." Zhu Ming said.

"It's really dangerous!"

Zhu Ming didn't talk nonsense, and asked Archer to bring in a basket: "Here are thirty pennies. I picked them up when I went down the mountain. How about borrowing flowers and presenting them to the Buddha?"

This is similar to the Baojia system, the so-called leader is the Baojia chief.Give them land, make them more powerful, help them manage the village, and at the same time be responsible for recruiting young people for training.

A large number of bandits and their families were brought together and knelt down.

"Come and register!"

After working for a long time, a man bowed his head over

……

All of this was done in public, and the archers were all overwhelmed with excitement as they watched the goods dwindle little by little.

Zhang Guangdao selected two Baojia chiefs, but the number was not enough.

"I hid one here!"

……

Lu Shoufen was the first to give up, coughed and said, "I'm very thirsty, just drink to quench my thirst."

Zhu Ming doesn't want to be a bandit, so of course he didn't choose the leader for the purpose of robbery.

The more they talked, the more angry they became.

As soon as the reward goes on, one-fifth of the cash just seized will be lost.

Zhu Ming smiled and said, "My lower body is seriously injured, and I will have to rest in peace for a few months. Both Chen and Zhang will take Archer and Minfu home."

Bai Sheng's martial arts skills are not good, and he is not suitable for fighting in battle, but his mind is more flexible, which is good for handling such things.

Anyone with more than two hundred acres of land must be a bandit leader, or at least a bandit leader.This kind of person has too much influence, which is not conducive to Zhu Ming's control. They must be eradicated completely, and the land they get can be distributed to show favor.

Chen Ziyi didn't say anything extra.

Well, there are two other libertines who can read and write, but Ju Ming is really worried.

The rest of the archers who participated in the battle were all rewarded with twelve punctures, and the wounded were given two punctures more often.

The two deputy section chiefs were pretending to be asleep, and they woke up once at noon.

Zhu Ming put down his brush: "Why don't you dare to look at me? Lift your head up!"

One after another, the prisoners came to report their family information, including how many acres of land they had.

One after another, most of them were young people.

Zhu Ming lifted them up with his own hands, and said with a pleasant face, "You guys are old with me, and each of you will be rewarded with a hundred acres of land, so you can follow me from now on?"

Bai Sheng asked: "Lu Shoufen is thirsty, how about Cao Shoufen?"

Zhu Ming led the two archers in, smiled and cupped his hands and said, "You two gentlemen, I am too busy with military affairs to take good care of you. Fortunately, it has been sorted out. This is the household registration and field records of this place."

Zhu Ming said again: "You pick two more, I will let them be the leaders, and I will reward them with a hundred acres of land."

"I have one here too!"

Fortunately, there are not many elderly people, and the ratio of young men to women is very high.

Chen Ziyi was a little confused: "Brother Zhu just took this place?"

The fellow staggered back, fell asleep on his head, with a smug smile on his face.

The two deputy section chiefs both vomited from drinking, they didn't eat breakfast, they kept drinking on an empty stomach, vomited and finally collapsed.

Not only to be generous to these six people, but also to be kind to many thieves, and to reward the archers he brought with him.

Zhu Ming glanced at it, and said expressionlessly, "Drag it down and chop it up!"

Whether to eat a knife or eat good wine, the two deputy section chiefs had to make a choice.

The two deputy section chiefs opened it up and saw, good guy, there are parts and wholes.

The top chair in the conference hall was moved out, and Zhu Ming sat upright with a sword in his hand and said: "All those who occupy more than [-] mu of land will be caught. You can report it. Whoever finds out that the family has [-] mu of land, I guarantee that his whole family will survive." .”

When you get home, you have to brag to the neighbors!
Strike while the iron is hot, Zhu Ming said to the archers: "That day we made a big fuss in the county government and offended the government officials to death. These bird people, dare not do anything to me, I am afraid they will vent their anger on you. When you return to your hometown, which brother will have a bad life? , you can bring your family to Heifeng Village. I will keep your family safe, and I will give you land to settle down in!"

Zhu Ming thought about it for a long time, and slowly wrote down a few large characters: Daming Village Household Registration and Field Book.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, not to mention that one person can share [-] sticks, which is considered generous.

Lu Shoufen hastily said: "I saw with my own eyes that Zhu Du's head was injured, and it was seriously injured. I really can't go back to the county government office to report!"

"That's right, Zhu Du's head was indeed injured." Cao followed up.

If you don't express your opinion, I am afraid that instead of continuing to drink, you will become drunk in the army and accidentally fall into the river and drown.
