The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 58 These bandits, let's dig coal in the future

Randomly selected a few obedient ones from among the captives, controlled them to lead the way, and led Sun Jie to the back mountain.

After passing through the bandit's accommodation area, after a short walk, we came to the back mountain.

The back mountain is not very high. It is said to be a mountain, but it is actually a relatively tall and wide hill.

Halfway up the hill, a huge pothole appeared in front of Sun Jie.

There are large and small black stones everywhere in the pit. You don't need to think about it, you know what it is.

Sun Jie's eyes shone brightly, and he walked into the pothole.

When I came to the bottom of the pit, there were still several bamboo baskets used to hold charcoal.

Picking up a relatively small piece of coal, his hands were instantly stained black.

Picked up another piece and tapped it.

Listening to the voice coming back, Sun Jie smiled.

Sun Jie's hometown is in the countryside, where there is no central heating. Every winter, he buys coal to light the stove for heating.

When I was young, I often went to the town to buy coal with my father. I went there many times, and I could tell the quality of the coal.

It is not as good as those professionals, but it is enough for daily life.

According to Sun Jie's current view, the coal in front of him is not bad.

Anyway, it is also a surface mine, and there is no need to dig a mine or an underground mine.

Wandering around in the pit, and then climbed out again.

He took out the map that he carried with him. It was obtained by Sun Jie from modern times, and it marked the locations of large and small coal mines in Yaozhou.

After all, there is no accurate positioning system, so Sun Jie can only guess roughly.

"It should be here. It should be here. This modern coal mine is one of the best coal mines in Yaozhou. It doesn't mean how big the reserves are, but because mining is very difficult. Just find an excavator and a forklift to open the mine! "

Sun Jie quickly identified this coal mine. He dare not say that it is extremely accurate, but it is also close to ten.

The hill in front of me is not an ordinary hill.

Under the rocks and soil layers wrapped outside, there are a lot of coals.

This coal mine is just a timely rain for Sun Jie now.

It can consume Sun Jie for many years and support Sun Jie to do many things.

He put the map back on his body, and got some coal out of the pit.

Light a fire and burn charcoal not far away, and look at the color again.

The firepower of the coal is very strong, the smoke is very little, and the pungent smell is very light.

In other words, there are fewer impurities in coal, and there are not so many sulfides or phosphides.

It is not as good as modern high-quality anthracite, but it is enough for current use.

After stamping out the fire, Sun Jie stood in front of the pit with emotion on his face.

"That's right, it's really good, it's a good place, it's a good place!"

Turning his head to look at Chen Hu standing next to him, he said: "These people who were captured today, all stay here, and let them dig coal here and transport it to our garrison.

If they dare to resist, they will be beaten to death directly.These captives add up to less than 1000 people, and they are used for mining and transporting coal, which is perfect!
When the time comes, call the third child and let him preside over the affairs here. "

There are far fewer captives on the other side of the garrison than here. I originally thought that after the discovery of the coal mine, some captives from that side would be transported here.

It never occurred to me that it would not be used at all.

There were nearly a thousand captives here, and only a few dozen were killed for deterrence, and the total was less than a hundred. The rest were basically unharmed, and they were excellent laborers.

As for the transportation vehicles, I will buy some wheelbarrows from Hyundai at that time.

The bumpy path, one earthen wall after another.

The wheelbarrow is the best transport vehicle, with one wheel, the pass rate is high, as long as it is a place where people can walk, it can pass almost everywhere.

"Yes!"

Chen Hu clapped his hands and said yes.

Sun Jie wandered around again, going to all the nearby places he could go.

After tossing down, it was already dark.

All those bandit captives were controlled outside the stockade.

Sun Jie took Chen Hu and Zhao Dading and stood outside the "Dayi Hall".

Looking at the plaque above his head, Sun Jie shook his head and said:

"I don't know what they think, but they came up with such a thing!"

"Who knows, maybe they listened to "Water Margin", or listened to other scripts." Chen Hu said.

"Water Margin" is very popular among the people, and it was very popular in the late Ming Dynasty.

In the first year of Chongzhen, Liu Xingwo published "Shuihu Zhongyi Zhizhuan" with 25 volumes, 110 and [-] chapters, which is one of the representative editions of the simplified version of "Water Margin".

Movable type printing greatly reduced printing costs, so that "Water Margin" spread throughout the world.

Even in the land of Shaanxi, "Water Margin" is very popular, and there are an endless stream of folk storytellers.

"What's wrong with the righteousness? These people don't know a single character. The shoulder pole fell down. I don't know if it's one. It's all nonsense!"

Zhao Dading at the side had a mocking face.

Sun Jie smiled and walked into the thatched cottage.

The tables inside were in a mess, and they shook a little bit and kept shaking.

The same is true for chairs. If you feel a little stronger, you will be able to sit on it.

Sun Jie just sat on the chair, and Chen Hu pushed the central table aside.

Several soldiers came in from the outside carrying a small basket of coal, and piled it on the ground like that.

Sun Jie squatted in front of the pile of coal, arranged the pile of coal, and dismantled a few broken chairs in the grass hall, and used them as ignition materials.

The fire quickly ignited. This thing is more resistant to burning than wood, and it is also more stable than wood.

An iron pot was propped on the fire, and some brought food was cooking in it.

The thick bacon porridge was boiling hot, and several people ate it while it was hot.

When the time came to the middle of the night, Sun Jie just fell asleep.

Chen Hu and Zhao Dading didn't sleep, and led the soldiers under their command to patrol around non-stop.

Although the entire stockade has been taken down, there can be no underestimation.

The moon is on the top of the mountain, and wisps of white jade float between the sky and the earth.

Bursts of moisture surged from the ground, forming white lines one after another on the surface.

Before the sun rises, it disappears completely, as if it never appeared.

Woke up and had breakfast.

Things are done, and it's time to go back.

All these captives were left here, and 200 guards were left at the same time, and Chen Hu was guarded here. Sun Jie took Zhao Dading and walked back.

The journey was peaceful, and there were hardly any thieves encountered.

A few days later, Sun Jie returned to the station.

According to the previous plan, Liang Wu was transferred out.

Let him switch with Chen Hu, and let him guard the wild wolf bag.

Before leaving, Sun Jie called him to the tent.

Looking at Liang Wu standing in front of him, Sun Jie said: "You must understand that that place is very important to us, and there must be no mistakes.

If you encounter any enemy situation, you can handle it yourself, and you can handle it yourself. Remember to be decisive, without any hesitation, and kill as soon as you need to, without any mercy.

If you can't solve it, send someone back to report.Remember, although coal is important, it will never be as important as you.

But if the situation is really critical, you can give it up temporarily, leaving no green hills, and you are not afraid of running out of firewood.

If people keep the land and lose it, all people and land will survive;Always remember this sentence! "

A scholar dies for a confidant, and a woman tolerates a person who pleases her.

A leader who values ​​his subordinates tends to make his subordinates more supportive.

Liang Wu is like this now, Sun Jie's sincere feelings warmed his heart.

"My lord, don't worry, I will be firmly nailed there like a wooden wedge!" Liang Wu replied with his fists clasped, his voice resounding.

After arranging some other things, Sun Jie sent him away.

His back became farther and farther away, gradually disappearing from Sun Jie's sight.

Liang Wu's ability is not as outstanding as Chen Hu, but he is a conservative general.

Introverted and restrained, there are almost no major shortcomings except that he is a little out of tune sometimes and can tell some jokes.

It would be most appropriate for him to stay at the wolf bag.

When Sun Jie came back, Wang Bi had already been waiting outside the tent for a long time.

Although Sun Jie didn't go for a long time, Wang Bi felt that everything that happened during this period must be told to Sun Jie.

Sun Jie came from a distance and stopped outside the tent.

Looking at Wang Bi standing in front of her, she asked, "But is there something wrong?"

"During the time your lord is away, there are some things that you need to report to your lord." Wang Bi said respectfully.

Sun Jie nodded and led him into the big tent.

"Sit down, sit down and talk!" Sun Jie sat down, put a chair in front of him, and signaled Wang Bi to sit down.

Wang Bi declined, but he couldn't, so he had to sit down.

"My lord, during the time my lord left, Master Chen led the villagers to reclaim another [-] acres of farmland..."

Everything, big and small, everything was said.

Wang Bi is a very responsible person, and the things he said were complicated, and he also told Sun Jie all the trivial things.

After talking for almost an entire hour, I finally finished.

Sun Jie had a slight headache. In fact, there were many things that he didn't need to deal with by himself.

So, he said to Wang Bi: "Well, in the future, as long as the matter is not too big, you can handle it yourself.

You can't look at me for everything, our territory will only get bigger and bigger in the future, if I have to take care of everything, I won't be able to handle ten of them.

You can't just care about these people in the future. If you don't have outstanding ability, how can you convince the public in the future? "

Wang Bi was slightly startled. If the previous guess was just his own thoughts, then the meaning of what Sun Jie said now is already obvious.

It's just a little surprised in my heart, and I don't have any other thoughts.

But it was out of ordinary people's thinking, and some of them didn't turn the corner for a while.

"Follow the order!"

Wang Bi cupped his hands towards Sun Jie.

"By the way, there is one more thing, I don't know if it should be said or not!" Wang Bi said again.

Sun Jie smiled and said: "If there is anything else that should be said or not, just say it if you have something on your mind!"

"My lord, it's like this. This matter is not a matter of people's livelihood, but a military matter!" Wang Bi looked at Sun Jie cautiously.

In the final analysis, Wang's pen is only concerned with the people's livelihood. In his opinion, it is a bit overstepped when he talks about military matters.

But it's impossible not to talk about this matter, so I had to bite the bullet and say it.

He was afraid that Sun Jie would feel that he was taking a little lenient, so he was always hesitant.

Sun Jie didn't think much of it. As a leader, the most important thing is to know people well, and to be able to accept advice freely under the condition of having opinions and rights.

If Wang Bi was punished because what he said had nothing to do with his work, would it be the act of the Ming Lord?Now that my career has just started, there are still many problems, and I have to listen to the opinions of others.

Sun Jie had a warm face and a calm tone: "No matter what it is, as long as you find a problem, just say it directly. There is nothing to be afraid of."

Hearing what Sun Jie said, Wang Bi took a reassurance.

"My lord, it's like this. I found out that my lord's army strength is now nearly [-], but the organization is a bit chaotic.

It is impossible for the adults to only have such a small amount of troops in their hands in the future. I feel that we should make preparations in advance and put up the shelf first.

In the future, when the army expands, it will be much more convenient to just add bricks and tiles to the shelf.If you put this matter in the future, it will be more difficult if you have more troops. "

Wang Bi said in a straightforward manner.

Sun Jie had actually thought about this question.Of course, he also thought about the establishment of the army, but it's a bit too early now.

With 500 people, it is only one thousand households one size bigger.

No matter how you arrange it, you can't achieve the desired effect.

It will even affect the combat effectiveness of soldiers and horses, so it is better to put them down first, and wait until there are more troops before starting to prepare.

It is already very good for Wang Bi to be able to discover this problem. Due to personal limitations and vision, he cannot see the long-term.

This is also very normal, not everyone is born with it, and it always takes a long time.

Wang Bi was just an accountant before, and it was just a vain idea to want him to arrange everything while talking and laughing like Zhuge Liang.

Sun Jie did not get angry because of some problems that Wang Bi said, but patiently explained to him.

"I thought about what you said a long time ago, and to be honest, I am very pleased that you can think of this.

However, it is too early to solve this problem now.Anyway, there are only a thousand people, and there are only ten hundred households.

If it is scattered, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness will not be good.Our current base is still small, the things that should be built have not yet been built, and the business has just started. It would be inappropriate to disperse at this time.

Wait until there are more troops in your hands, don't rush for this moment! "Sun Jie explained the various reasons very patiently.

Wang Bi listened very carefully, not daring to omit a certain point, and tried his best to write down all that Sun Jie said.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and it gradually became dark outside.

The two talked so happily that they even forgot to eat.

Looking at the darkened sky outside, Sun Jie said: "It's already dark now, why don't you just eat at my place."

Wang Bi subconsciously wants to refuse. Although he has not read many books, he is deeply bound by the ethics of this era.

Sun Jie is the boss, and now the situation is special, so he invited himself to dinner, so he was really nervous, afraid that some of his habits would affect Sun Jie.

Sun Jie saw the hesitation on his face, and said, "Okay, don't think so much, what can I do if it's just a meal?!"

　Twelve thousand more today! Here comes Chapter 3! ! !
