Chapter 190 Two Cows

Legislation is urgent, but it cannot be rushed. The law must be strict, and since it is strict, we must not be careless and leave obvious loopholes in legislation.

Sun Xiucai also knew this very well, so he focused six percent of his energy on legislation, three-thirds of the other four percent on establishing law enforcement agencies at all levels, and only one percent of his energy on law enforcement.

Henan was ravaged by bandits, and many government agencies in various counties were in ruins. Under such circumstances, both Zhu Bingkun and Zheng Wu were in dire straits.

If the army fights from the front, the Zhoumu Yamen and the Royal Fasi Yamen must follow up seamlessly. When the army captured a county town, the State Mu Yamen would set up an official office in the county and appoint officials. The same goes for the Law Enforcement Division.

Therefore, the two yamen are very busy - thanks to Zheng Yunzhi, Sun Xiucai and others who received early feedback on their political achievements, both physically and spiritually, they are far superior to ordinary people and full of energy. One person is worth ten people, so they can operate in an orderly manner under the premise of extreme shortage of personnel. follow up.

Under such circumstances, Ying Yi, as the hands-off shopkeeper, has not been idle.

Leaving Feng, go down to Nanyang and enter Fangcheng Mountain. Ying Yi brought the wooden box containing Li Chuang's head to Bibo Valley with Master Li and his disciples.

Jiang Xi had gone to Crescent Valley early. As the verger of the Mo Affairs Department, he was currently mainly in charge of the two valleys of Fangcheng Mountain. When I first became a verger, I had no time to waste whether it was building the team of the verger or other matters.

Today, Bibo Valley is completely on the right track.

The Bibo Lake in the valley is rippling, and the mountain streams crossing the lake have abundant water. The water conservancy forging method has been utilized, which greatly increased the efficiency of the Bibo Valley workshop.

At the mouth of the valley, where the mountain stream falls, on the left and right sides of the stream, there are five large waterwheel-like facilities on each side. Under the wash of abundant stream water, they rotate all the time, passing through one after another. Gears drive the forging hammer to forge steel. The hammering sound is rhythmic, as if singing a high-spirited song that will never end.

In the valley, workshops with five sizes: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, are arranged along the lake according to their demand for water. Each brand has two workshops. The number of craftsmen among them has reached 800.

The four workshops of Jinzihao and Huozihao accounted for three-fifths of the 800 craftsmen. The six workshops of Mu Zi Hao, Shui Zi Hao and Tu Zi Hao share the remaining two-fifths.

At the other end away from the workshop area is the craftsmen’s accommodation, which includes a row of earthen wood and brick courtyards and a large public canteen.

The row courtyards start from the other end of Bibo Valley opposite the Gongfang District, inward and out of the valley, and stretch on both sides of the newly built Bibo Valley-Crescent Valley Avenue. They are close to the mountains and roads, which is very convenient. The families of eight hundred craftsmen all live here.

Between the accommodation area and the workshop area is the warehouse area. The raw materials transported from Crescent Valley or outside the mountains are stored here, and the finished products are also stored here. The same goes for the refined salt processed and filtered from the salt mine behind the valley.

In the entire Bibo Valley, apart from the young sons of the craftsmen, the rest are the elderly and women. They all have jobs to do and wages to earn. Salt mines, canteens, and transportation all require a lot of labor.

Of course, this is not mandatory. There are plenty of people willing to do it.

The newly built road runs through the entire Bibo Valley, from the accommodation area to the warehouse to the workshop area. The road is wide and can accommodate five carriages in parallel.

Bibo Valley is the end of the road. The topography of Bibo Valley determines that even the road from Bibo Valley to the outside of the mountain cannot be built from the mouth of the valley. There are mountain streams and gaps there, and mountain streams are of great use and can be used for water conservancy and forging. Therefore, the road leading to the outside of the mountain is located at the salt mine behind the valley, forming a three-way intersection with the road coming from the direction of Crescent Valley and the last stretch of road extending into Bibo Valley.

Ying Yi entered the mountain from Xiaowangzhuang and walked on the newly built road from the slave labor camp until he reached this three-way intersection. He first went to the salt mine to have a look - the mining of the salt mine was on the right track. There were currently more than 500 workers in the entire salt mine, most of whom were women and were the family members of the craftsmen of Bibo Valley.

Five thousand kilograms of refined salt is produced here every day, which is 150,000 kilograms a month. Of course, it took less than a month for the salt mine to get back on track. According to the salt mine deacon, since the salt mine was mined, in addition to the Yueyang Valley and Bibo Valley's own consumption, 50,000 kilograms of refined salt have been transported and distributed to the three counties of Nanyang for sale. At the same time, 70,000 kilograms of refined salt have been hoarded and stored. In the Bibo Valley.

After Ying Yi saw the list of salt mines, he was very satisfied with it. After giving encouragement, he took Master Li Zhenren and his disciples, Zhang Si, Lin Gen and other personal guards into Bibo Valley.

The first thing that catches the eye is the rows of courtyards at different heights. Along the way, you can see naked children chasing each other on the roadside, and you can see elderly ladies washing clothes by the stream.

The entire faction is peaceful and peaceful.

Entering the valley, between the rows of courtyards, there is also a large grocery store. It sells various daily necessities, such as grain, salt, sugar, cloth and clothing, etc. This is a government-run grocery store, and the same is true for Crescent Valley. It was Ying Yi who mentioned it in the first place.

The existence of the grocery store not only meets the daily needs of people in the valley, but also achieves Ying Yi's purpose of recycling silver.

Then Ying Yi saw Er Niu.

The Er Niu in front of him seemed to have become a different person. The originally naive face now has a hint of capableness between the brows. People will change. Ying Yi asked Er Niu to be responsible for Bibo Valley. Regardless of whether he has experience or not, reality will force out his potential.

Ying Yi sighed in his heart.

"Two cows."

He punched Erniu, who grinned.

I remember when Ying Yi first arrived, he was so hungry that he was about to die and was rescued by Brother Zhang. One of the first people I met in Xiaowangzhuang was Erniu.

Erniu was a simple man without any scheming, and it was only then that Ying Yi was willing to deal with him.

"Brother Ying!"

Ying Yi smiled, a touch of kindness that he hadn't seen in a long time.

Afterwards, they chatted and found that Erniu's words were very coherent.

"I have lived up to your trust, Brother Ying. In this Bibo Valley, up and down, inside and outside, we have a clean family." Erniu rowed his breasts and made a thumping sound.

He said: "Currently, there are ten workshops with five brands, and there are 803 craftsmen. Among them, there are 610 first-level craftsmen, 150 second-level craftsmen, 41 third-level craftsmen, and Mr. Pu Tiechui. The skills of brothers Huo and Ma Niu have greatly improved, and they are the two remaining, they are first-class master craftsmen."

Of course Ying Yi knew about Pu Tiechui and Ma Niu. As well-known craftsmen on the Humanity List, they have also made corresponding humane achievements and received feedback from true spirits. Whether it is used to enhance the body or the soul, it will definitely promote skills. Becoming a great craftsman is a matter of course.

In fact, the craftsmanship of the first batch of craftsmen on the list is not what it used to be. The number of third-level craftsmen can reach 41, which is closely related to this. Ying Yi believes that with the increase in the number of humane energy statistics and performance feedback at the beginning of each month, their skills will become stronger and stronger.
