Kai Fu Han

Chapter 98: Conquer people with virtue, and workers return to their hearts

The state-level numbers remain unchanged. In addition to Dengzhou numbers, Laizhou, Wei (wei), Zi (zi) and Yi (yi) states are newly added.

Zhao Shui was promoted to captain of Laizhou, Ye Chuan was promoted to captain of Weizhou, and the former captains of Beihai and Yexian were promoted to captains of Zizhou and Yizhou.

In addition to the four ships of the original Guo Auxiliary class: Chaoyang, Penglai, Beihai, and Yexian, the eight newly added ships were named after the counties of Jingdong East Road, and they will all be called county-class ships from now on.

The ship names of the Thousand Stone Ship Wendeng and the Huangxian were cancelled, and these two ship names were used for the two Thousand Stone ship.

From now on, ships with a weight of less than [-] koku will be named "Thousand-stone-class Shachuan No. [-]", "Thousand-stone-class Shachuan No. [-]"... and so on.

After discussions with Zhao Liang, Gao Yuan, Li Cang and others, captains were arranged for these 41 ships worth more than one thousand stones.

Eight of the cargo ships continued to go to Laizhou to transport coal, and eight Qianshi-class ships remained in Baishiwan and Long Island for use. The eight ships in the best condition were selected to still participate in the battle.

From the small boats such as Goge, six were selected to participate in the battle, and the remaining five were left at Baishiwan for use.

Divide all ships into three fleets.

Zhao Liang, the leader of the first team, included three state-level ships, namely Dengzhou, Zizhou, and Yizhou; six county-level sand ships and two gondolas.The total transportation volume is [-] shi, mainly responsible for the grain trade going south to Hangzhou.The eight soldiers from the previous six teams continued to cooperate with Zhao Liang to escort him back and forth to Hangzhou.

The leader of the second team, Gao Yuan, included one state-level ship, the Laizhou, three county-level sand ships, four Qianshi-class (war) ships, sixteen Qianshi-class (cargo) ships, and four small boats.Responsible for guarding the Dengzhou sea surface, Laizhou coal fleet and Baishiwan construction fleet.

Li Cang, the leader of the third team, included one state-level ship, the Weizhou, three county-level sand ships, four Qianshi-level (war) ships, and two walking boats.Responsible for mobile operations, the ten soldiers of the original third team continue to be managed by him.

……

On April [-], Liujiabao's southbound fleet set off again.

A fleet of eleven ships were all ready and well supplied.

Liu Xinqi came to the port to see him off. Zhou Xinyuan stood on the side of the Dengzhou ship and waved goodbye to Liu Xinqi.

Zhou Yue stood next to Liu Xinqi and burst into tears, and his wife's eyes were also red.

In the current era, even sailing offshore is still very risky, so it is inevitable for Zhou Yue and his wife to worry.

In addition to Liu Xinqi and his party, there were many family members of the crew at the port.

On this trip south, the state-level ship was equipped with 150 people, the county-level ship was equipped with 100 people, and the crew was 20 people, for a total of 100 people.

If it weren't for the 600 sailors hired in Penglai Port, most of Liujiabao's young men could be drained at once.

After two consecutive successful trips south, coupled with the spread of the last water battle at the Dengzhou Navy camp, the people of Penglai County still recognized Liujiabao's strength at sea. This is why six hundred sailors can be recruited for this trip south. s reason.

……

On April [-], after the monthly salary for March was distributed, Liu Lisheng sent back the news from Baishiwan.

"The monthly salary has been paid normally for half a year, and after seeing the good treatment of the Liujiabao people, most of the workers recruited from Laizhou last time hope to actually join Liujiabao." said the tribesman who reported the news.

"Do they have any requirements?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"They asked Liu Jiabao to treat them the same as the original clansmen and not treat them differently."

"It's impossible to treat everyone the same as the Liu tribe, but of course you can get the same treatment as the tribe members who join later. You go back and tell the third master that I will finish the work arrangements here and go to Baishiwan tomorrow." Liu Xinqi replied. .

The tribesmen took orders and went out.

All in all, Liu Xinqi has not been to Baishiwan for two months. …

On April [-], Liu Xinqi took a small boat to Baishiwan.

When Liu Xinqi arrived at the construction site, Liu Lisheng had already gathered more than 300 workers together.

After these months of work, these workers have become familiar with each other. This time, three representatives were elected to discuss with Liu Xinqi.

Liu Xinqi and the three of them stood in the middle of the crowd and started chatting.

"Tell me what you think."

A middle-aged man among the three said.

"Villain Wu Liang, thank you patriarch for coming here in person."

"It is our Liujiabao's honor that you are willing to join Liujiabao. It is only right that I come to discuss it." Liu Xinqi replied: "Uncle Wu has something to say, but it doesn't matter."

"We laborers are now homeless. Although the nobles have provided accommodation, it is not a long-term solution after all. Recently, we have seen that the population of nobles has been increasing, and most of them are people who have been taken in outside. So we are wondering if we can also join Liu Jiabao, after joining, can we get the same treatment as the original Liujiapu people?"

"Of course you are welcome to join, but I have to declare one thing in advance. People who were originally from Liujiabao in Qizhou are entitled to a [-]% discount when buying houses here in Baishiwan. However, people from the Liujiabao tribe who joined later do not have this policy. After you join Neither." Liu Xinqi said.

"We can accept this. Do we have the monthly salary for guarantee, work, growth, life, pension, childbirth, pension, etc.?" Wu Liang asked with an anxious look.

"These monthly salaries are available to all Liujiapu residents as long as they meet the conditions, regardless of order, surname, gender, age or child." Liu Xinqi answered affirmatively.

Hearing Liu Xinqi's assurance, the surrounding workers cheered.

After all, in this era, this kind of humane policy is unique and unprecedented.

The three representatives looked at each other, and Wu Liang continued to speak on behalf of everyone.

"We have 310 households with a population of 1000 and 41 people, all of whom have joined."

system hint:

New tribe members: 1241
Increased power: 1241, remaining 4059
Fame increased: 1241, remaining 1248
Liu Xinqi made a mental calculation.

According to the last time I checked the attributes, the remaining force was 2836. The increase from the current 4079 is not 1241. However, Liu Xinqi has been staying in Liujiabao recently to learn about the recent natural death and birth numbers in Liujiabao, plus the 20 people who died in the last uprising. Man, this number is correct.

This shows that the power value of the system is real-time and changes with the actual situation.

When strong laborers agree to join, the system defaults to the fact that their families also join. This shows that as the head of a family, strong men are recognized by the system as the head of a small force called "family".

Finally, after the reputation is increased, even if the clan member who provided the reputation dies, the increased reputation will not decrease, which shows that the reputation is accumulated and not real-time.

"Since the three of you are the elected representatives of more than 300 households, I think you are very convincing every day. I plan to accept your magic, are you willing?"

The three of them were stunned by the surprise news. After a while, they all spoke:
"Will! Will!"

After attaching the remaining three one-star cards to the three of them, Liu Xinqi chatted with everyone for a while and learned some about the actual situation of these people before leaving.

Liu Xinqi attached cards to these three people in order to have a firmer control over the more than 1000 working population, and not to use them casually on a whim.
