Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 639 Lin Tongsheng's Military Control Committee Half-Day Tour
Lin Qizong had a hasty lunch, and at the urging of his father-in-law, he took his household registration card and went to the military control committee.Wait until you have a look in front of the horoscope wall outside the gate, okay!There are more than 30 people standing sparsely at the door, one group and another group.Taking a closer look, he knew more than half of them, and they were all Tongsheng who came to sign up.

Among the people present, in terms of age, some were in their 30s, some were in their 50s, and there was even a man in his 60s.From the perspective of family background, except for two merchant families, almost all of them are from poor families, and there is not a single official family.

The most special thing is that a few people even wore round-neck blouses, which made Lin Qizong look down on him a little. He said in his heart that he really wanted fame and fame, and even used his hand, so he was not afraid to walk. Being pointed at the back and scolded.

The so-called 襕 shirt is actually the green shirt in the ancient poems, which originated in the Tang Dynasty. It is a proper Han clothing; its shape is a round neck and large sleeves, and the bottom is a horizontal 襕 as a skirt. There are folds at the waist, and it is mostly blue. Fabric making.The clothing system of the Ming Dynasty was not much different from that of the Song Dynasty, so it naturally continued to be used.

However, the reason why Lin Qizong despised those who wore shirts was that even in the Ming Dynasty, only scholars above the level of scholars and ceremonial students in county schools could wear them.

Although scholars in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties usually wore gowns and gowns, and even wore gold-plated gold domes to show their status when they were awarded the title of scholar, they must wear green shirts every year when they worshiped their ancestors. Just borrow one.On the surface, it is said that the ancestors had never seen the robes and jackets of the Qing Dynasty, and the ancestors did not recognize the robes and jackets they wore; however, everyone in the scholarly community understands that this is a lesson passed down from their ancestors. If they do not forget the righteousness of the Ming Dynasty, they can be regarded as the high pressure of the Qing Dynasty. A limited spiritual revolt under domination.

By the way, in order to win over scholars, the Manchu Qing court did not interfere with this, and it was used from the early Qing Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty.

Lin Qizong went up to bow his hands to those who were familiar with him and greeted them. Seeing that everyone was not moving, he asked in surprise, "Why don't you all go in?"

"Brother Deyuan, even though the new government has changed the system and changed the county government into a military management committee, it is still a government office after all! Although we are children, we have no fame after all, so I may be inappropriate if we go in rashly. Let's wait." Right. Presumably the people at the gate will see it after a while, and they will naturally come out and tell me to wait."

"Yeah yeah."

It is not surprising that people think so.Even though the military control committee had put out a notice a long time ago, stating that the door of the military control committee was open to the common people, they could come to find them at any time if they needed something, and no one would ask for a door bag.But these days, as long as ordinary people are not involved in a lawsuit, no one will run to the Yamen, and it is too late to hide.

However, regarding this issue, Guo Yu has repeatedly explained to Lin Qizong in the morning, saying that as long as you explain your purpose to the guard at the gate, someone will take you to the registration office, so don't be afraid.

So Lin Qizong smiled slightly, pretending to be casual and said: "Everyone, since they all say that it is the new dynasty, why bother to twitch, just follow me."

After finishing speaking, he walked up the steps under the surprised eyes of everyone. More than 30 children saw it, and couldn't help secretly admiring the courage of this person. Some people followed immediately, but most of them still didn't dare to move.

Lin Qizong walked to the gate, and before the guard on guard could speak, he bowed to him and said, "Dare to ask this official, I am here to sign up for the imperial examination, please give me some advice." two."

The soldier on guard raised his hand and returned a military salute, which startled Lin Qizong and the other boys, then said "wait a moment", and then yelled at the door.Not long after, a person came out of the porter's room. He was not tall, but he was quite burly, holding a leather wallet in his hand, wearing a dark green military uniform with no military rank, a military cap, and no military belt.

"Hi everyone, my surname is Huang, and my last name is Huang Lusheng. I am responsible for the registration of our Ninghai Prefecture Branch. You can call me Officer Huang."

Lin Qizong and the others were surprised, thinking what kind of official is the "officer"?However, since this person in charge of the department reported his name, he should be similar to the pawn in the ceremonial room before.So several people rushed to salute, some called "Officer Huang", and some called "Master Huang". When Huang Lusheng heard this, he quickly corrected him.

Those who came to Jiaodong to serve as clerks of the Military Control Commission were almost all veterans who had retired from Siberia. They had joined the Beihai Navy for at least five years.Before coming to Shandong last year, the North Navy’s staff also specially held an education conference. Both Zhao Xin and Wu Siyu had spoken to them, repeatedly emphasizing that everyone came to Shandong not to enjoy the blessings of the masters, but to do things for the common people.

Huang Lusheng asked Lin Qizong and others for the household registration card, then opened the hard leather folder in his hand, compared it with the list of children in the county counted above, and found that there were a few of them, so he handed back the card, and then told them to go inside, go to Just register at the original ceremony room behind the Yimen Gate.

Lin Qizong and the others bowed to thank them, and were about to walk in when they heard someone behind him say: "Dare to ask this master, Guan, about... when will I get the exam allowance?"

He turned his head and saw an old boy in his 50s wearing a T-shirt also coming over, and fell to the ground with a bow to Huang Lusheng.Hearing that this person asked a crucial question, Lin Qizong couldn't help but stop and prick up his ears.At the same time, the children who were waiting at the bottom of the steps saw that Lin Qizong had gone in, so they all joined together.

Huang Lusheng hastily stepped forward to help him up, and said: "You don't have to do this, old man."

From the subsequent conversation between the two, everyone understood that to receive the "examination allowance" in Beihai Town, they must first complete the registration and then participate in the "pre-examination training class" held by the Military Control Commission at the beginning of next month. Three days, and then you can get the money.

Everyone thought they would have to wait at least a few months to get it, but they didn't expect it to be available next month, and they were very excited.Among these people, although some of them have a few acres of land, their lives are very difficult because they have to support a study seed. Two taels of silver is really not a small amount for them.

A group of children, headed by Lin Qizong, followed the instructions of the soldiers standing guard along the road, bypassed the gate of Yi, and came to the courtyard where the sixth house used to be.

At this time, the air in the courtyard was filled with the smell of burning coal, which made Lin Qizong wrinkle his nose.He noticed that above the windows of each office room, a thin white cylinder with the thickness of a calf sticks out at intervals. After passing the eaves, the white cylinder bends upwards for more than two feet, and there is a faint smell. There is a faint blue smoke, and there is a small conical cap on the top of the cylinder.

"Is this a chimney? What's it for?"

Lin Qizong was wondering, the person behind him pushed him lightly, and said, "Brother De Yuan, which office should we go to?"

The six rooms in Ninghai Prefecture's county government were originally arranged in order from the northernmost on the west side to the northernmost on the east side in the order of officials, households, soldiers, and criminal workers.After the establishment of the Military Control Committee, the names of each house were changed according to the custom of Beihai Town; The "Public Security Police Station" and the punishment room were changed to "judiciary", and the workshop was changed to "construction". In addition, a customs office and a "health center" were set up separately.

The customs office was established in Longmen Port, replacing the previous inspection department; the health center is temporarily closed to the outside world because the medical staff are all female, and it only assumes the functions of the Beihai Navy's internal clinic.

Because of Guo Yu's previous advice, Lin Qizong had the courage to come to the door of the second room on the left with the sign of "Cultural Education" and knocked twice.

"Please come in!"

Pushing open the door, a gust of warm and smoky air rushed towards Lin Qizong, and Lin Qizong saw a person sitting behind each of the two tables in the room, looking at him with a smile on his face.

At this time, several students behind him were about to come in, one of them got up quickly and said, "Two people come in at a time. I'm sorry everyone, this office is too small."

Tong Sheng outside the house heard him speak politely, so he stopped going in and just stood on the porch and waited.

Lin Qizong and the people behind him walked into the room, and first bowed to the two people behind the table, and the two people also smiled and cupped their hands, asked them for the household registration card, and filled it out on the registration form.At this time, Lin Qizong found that the person opposite him was holding a pen in a very strange posture, as if he was holding a carving knife. From left to right, from top to bottom.

Soon, he was attracted by the pen in the opposite person's hand again, not to mention that the barrel of the pen is as clear as crystal, with a black line in the middle, and the material is very strange. What shocked him the most was that there was no need to dip ink in between writing. .

This is something that has never been heard before!

While looking around, he noticed a strange thing in the corner of the room, which made him let out a "huh" unconsciously.The thing was black in appearance, like a cylinder. There was a silver-white kettle on the top of the square plate. The spout was steaming, and there were three low legs at the bottom.The white cylinder he had seen outside the door came down from above the window and was connected to a prominent position on the edge of the square plate.

Lin Qizong immediately realized that this should be something like a charcoal stove, making the house as warm as spring.He couldn't help thinking that everything in the government of the new dynasty was strange.

Isn't it surprising?The cast iron coal stove with a chimney is something that was only available in the 50s in another time and space, and it did not exist in the Qing Dynasty!

In recent years, with the continuous improvement of the development of the northern Quanzhou coal mine in Ezo and the central coal mine of Kuye Island, the main reason is that more and more people were sent to dig coal, except for the unrepentant Qing soldiers and Tsarist Russian prisoners of war. There are also many cult members, and four coal ships arrive at the port almost every two days.

The steel mills in Khabarovsk and the industrial zone east of the Sila River simply can't use so much coal, so Chen Qingsong "invented" the old-fashioned coal stove used to live in bungalows.The production and assembly of this thing is not complicated, each part can be formed by pouring at one time, and the civil affairs department taught the method of making briquettes through community organizations.

Another important point is that with the urbanization of Beihai Town and the expansion of farmland, logging has become a difficult task; people in the city have to travel far to find the birch forest, and the trees on the mountain cannot It was cut casually, so when the coal stove was put out in Beihai Trading Co., it was quickly accepted by the common people.

In order to solve the problem of wintering for the troops, before winter last year, the civil affairs department transported thousands of cast iron coal stoves and distributed them to the military control committees of the four counties.

In the Qing Dynasty, Laiyang, Haiyang, Qixia and other places in Dengzhou Prefecture all produced coal, but the main use of coal in this year was ironmaking and metallurgy, and ordinary people had to use charcoal and firewood for heating.

Kong Shaoan, who was in Wendeng at that time, bought tens of thousands of catties of coal from Haiyang and other places through merchants in the city, and then asked the soldiers to make briquettes by themselves, which solved the winter heating problem in the military control committee and military camp.

At this time, after the person opposite Lin Qizong filled out the registration form, he opened a blank "account book", and each page was divided into two pages.He filled in Lin Qizong's name and the house number on the household registration card on top and bottom, then tore it off with a "stab", and handed it to Lin Qizong with a surprised face: "Go out and turn right to the third room, put the list Give it to the people in the house."

Lin Qizong collected his household registration card, left the house in a daze, and came to the door of the house where Cao Fugui and Guo Yu took ID photos before, knocked twice, but there was still a "please come in" from inside, so he pushed the door open went in.

As soon as he entered the door, Lin Qizong couldn't help being taken aback, he found that the furnishings in this room were very strange.Like Guo Yu, he also tried to figure out what the umbrella with the black outside and the silver inside were used for on the shelf in the room, but the clerk in charge of taking pictures obviously would not give him such a chance.The other party asked for the list in his hand, and immediately let him sit under the white wall with the best light, where there was an official hat chair.

"Just sit on that chair with your hands flat, and take off your hat. Don't cross your legs. Don't shake your legs."

Lin Qizong didn't know what he was doing at all. Four or five steps away from him stood a black tripod with a strange small black box on it. There was a lens that looked like a crystal surface facing him. .

At this moment, his whole body was stiff, and he didn't know how to put his hands and feet. However, the person on the opposite side kept ordering him: "Turn your head a little to the right. Turn your head to the left. Look at my hand. Raise your head a little! Don't move! "

After a slight "click", the man tore off the lower half of the previous two sheets, picked up a pen to mark on it, and said to Lin Qizong, "I'll take the photos here in five days."

Lin Qizong didn't know what a "photo" was, so he said "um", and then bowed.He put on his hat, got up in a daze and walked to the door. When he saw the next person walking in with a curious face, the other person even bowed to him.Lin Qizong thought of the scene where he was manipulated just now, and looked at this man again, the muscles on his face couldn't help twitching twice.

When he got out of the gate and returned to the front of the horoscope wall, Lin Qizong couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.After this dazzling set of procedures, he felt that his understanding of the Yamen was completely subverted.So he decided to go to Zhang Butcher to get some pigs on credit, and go back to make up for his lack of brains.
