Datang: My apprentice is Li Chengqian

Chapter 203 Placement
After entering October, the weather in Chang'an City has obviously become colder.

In Chang'an City, discussions about Tea Zhuan and Biluochun also gradually decreased.

Most people thought that Qin Xiedao had a bad luck this time.

Not only did they open up to buy tea bricks from various shops under pressure, but they were also taken advantage of by others.

The most important thing is that just after this loss, an obviously bigger loss fell on Qin Xiedao's head again.

"Lang Jun, most of the maids and eunuchs have been placed in workshops outside the city. Some of them are old and can only be placed in other courtyards.

However, some of the buildings in the other courtyard have only built the framework, and the interior decoration has not yet been completed, so those people can only squeeze into a part of the courtyard first. "

Qin Fu reported the situation at home to Qin Xiedao with a frustrated expression.

These court ladies and eunuchs were stuffed in when Qin Xiedao just returned to Chang'an City.

It's just that although the palace decided to reduce the number of maids and eunuchs, it was only a few days ago that it was actually implemented.

For those who choose to go home, naturally there is nothing to worry about about their placement.

However, [-]% of the court ladies and eunuchs did not choose to return to their hometowns.

As the first batch of abolished personnel, they are generally over 30 years old, or even over 40 years old.

For these people, entering the palace began in their teens, and even began to enter the palace when they were younger.

Up to now, at least ten years or even decades have passed.

In other words, when they entered the palace, Datang had not yet been established.

They still serve Yang Guang, and even Yang Jian.

Now that they are no longer in the palace, for the vast majority of people, this is a bolt from the blue.

Therefore, Li Shimin also took some thought in order to arrange these personnel.

Fortunately, in the end, a minister in the DPRK and China proposed a solution that looked quite good in time.

"Most of the court ladies can be settled in the wool workshop, and the rest can be allocated to various shops.

It is enough to leave dozens more to serve people in the house.

As for those eunuchs, didn't I ask you to build a pig farm and chicken farm next to the Wei River?
Taking advantage of this opportunity, let them be responsible for farming things and growing vegetables, and try to arrange some jobs for them within their ability. "

Qin Xiedao never thought of simply supporting these court ladies and eunuchs.

In fact, although these people are generally old, weak, sick and disabled, they are not without their own advantages.

As people in the palace, whether these eunuchs or court ladies, they are generally literate.

This situation is relatively rare in the era of Datang.

Therefore, Qin Xiedao plans to let some people who are interested in mathematics learn the method of accounting. It is a good choice to arrange to help in various shops, or to teach in Mengxue.

Of course, there must be demand for raising pigs, raising chickens and growing vegetables.

Qin Xiedao spent a lot of effort, and finally arranged for the first batch of abolished thousands of maids and eunuchs to be properly arranged.

"Well, I have secretly ordered you to sort out the maids and eunuchs who stayed in the mansion. Some of them are more clever. I will arrange them as the little heads first. If you are free, sir, you can see them first. See these stewards."

With so many court ladies and eunuchs, their status in the palace itself is different. After leaving the palace, most of them still habitually obey their former superiors to direct them.

At the beginning, Qin Xiedao didn't expect all of these people to be loyal, so he could only let the Qin family choose a group of people who seemed more prestigious and easier to control to be in charge.

It is impossible for him to be responsible for everything.

"It's better to hit the sun than choose the day, let's go to the other courtyard today to have a look.

Judging by the weather, it is estimated that it will start to snow next month. There must be no way to carry out various outdoor constructions. We must take advantage of this time to get them moving quickly. "

Qin Xiedao looked like a capitalist, and he really responded to the saying "the ass determines the head".

Soon, Qin Xiedao came to the other courtyard beside the Wei River outside the city, and met several stewards.

"Lang Jun, this Hua Lin entered the palace at the age of ten and stayed in the palace for 35 years. During these years, almost all the eunuchs who entered the palace were handled by him.

Before, Mr. Lang, you said that you are in charge of the pig farm and chicken farm. It is best to find someone who knows how to castrate, so I am going to let Hua Lin be in charge. "

Qin Fu didn't know much about the situation of these people, so he could only make the first allocation based on the situation they explained.

As for whether it is suitable in the future, it can only be adjusted slowly.

"That's great, the first piglets are already there, but not many.

As for the chickens, ducks and geese you mentioned, Mr. Lang, you have already purchased a batch and are now keeping them together. "

Although Qin Fu's ability is not too great, as an old man of the Qin family, he is more loyal than others.

No matter what time it is, loyalty is very important for leaders and people, and victory is the most important in many cases.

Otherwise, the greater your ability, the greater the harm.

"I have seen Mr. Qin Lang, my servant Hua Lin, thank you for your life.

For a dying person like me who has no father, no mother, and no home, only Mr. Lang is so generous that you are willing to take us in, give us a place to live, and give us food.

From now on, I will work conscientiously in the mansion, not to cause trouble for the lord, not to talk nonsense, not to gossip, and to do whatever the lord asks me to do. "

A person like Hua Lin who has been in the palace all his life is naturally not a stupid person.

What to say on what occasion, they are quite clear.

Otherwise, I would not have the opportunity to live in the palace for more than 30 years.

Qin Xiedao didn't say anything after hearing this, but just nodded and continued to listen to Qin Fu's introduction of other people.

"This is Li Lian, it is said that Emperor Sui Yang was very fond of him at the time, and Gaozu also liked to invite him to entertain him in the palace for a while.

I thought that if Mr. Lang is in a troubled mood, it would be nice to have Li Lian by his side to relieve the boredom. "

Looking at the chubby eunuch in front of him, Qin Xiedao felt rather surprised.

This era is not like later generations, a bunch of middle-aged men are all potbellied.

If you want to become a fat man in this era, you usually have to be a child of a wealthy family.

It's quite unusual for a eunuch like Li Lian to be able to eat like this.

But Li Lian was keenly aware of something from Qin Xiedao's eyes.

He bowed to Qin Xiedao with a flattering smile, and said: "Your Majesty, in this palace, no one is better at making the nobles happy than me.

No matter who is in a bad mood, as long as the servants are in front of them, everyone can relax.

One day, if the gentleman is not happy, he can kick his servants like a ball, or let his servants imitate various voices, and he will definitely find a way to be happy. "
