Chapter 200 Ten treasuries
, dividing land and land encountering twists and turns
Zhang Zhun looked at the backs of the old men who left, and always felt that he was not very at ease. It seemed that the concerns of these old men were still very heavy. Of course, they were willing to ask for their own fields, but who would not want their own fields? However, the court, rebellion, Wang Jian and other three mountains were firmly pressed on them. It was not that simple to muster up the courage to resist. Lingshanwei is not a Fushanou. There are too many people and the relationship is too complicated. Everyone's decisions will be affected in all aspects. Fang Yu's passion alone may not be able to change the stagnant water of Lingshanwei! However, no matter what, this stagnant water must be stirred up!
Lingshan Guard must be firmly controlled in his own hands!
Since the distribution of land may not be effective, then use other methods!
"Sir, the supplies in the ten warehouses have been basically counted."
At this time, Zhang Lingyun came to report and said that the materials in the ten warehouses had been counted out.
Zhang Zhun nodded and came to the area of Hongshi Street where Shiku was located. Hongshi Street was actually behind the Red Building and connected to the back door of the Red Building. When it was built, it might have used the same red bricks as the Red Building, so the exterior walls looked like dark red. Even the bricks connected to the top were dark red. The dark red tones always give people a terrifying feeling of blood, so ordinary people rarely appear here.
The soldiers of the guard team have controlled this place. There is someone guarding each warehouse. The original guard of the warehouse has already escaped with Wang Jian. The warehouse was locked with a big copper lock, and the soldiers have no keys. However, it doesn't matter, just smash it open. How to smash it? Use a big hammer to smash it!
Mo Yu came up and introduced the general situation to Zhang Zhun.
Zhang Zhun looked over the warehouse one by one.
Among the ten warehouses, the first one is the internal transportation warehouse, which stores precious materials such as gold, silver, jade, jade, pearls, jade, tiger skin, and tooth horns. Naturally, there will be no inventory. The entire warehouse is empty, and even mice can starve to death. Judging from the fresh footprints left on the ground, no one has come in for at least one or two years.
No matter who it is, you can't help but be disappointed when you see such a warehouse. Fortunately, the second warehouse did not disappoint Zhang Zhun. The second warehouse stores sulfur and saltpeter, which are raw materials used for gunpowder. When you get close to this warehouse, you can immediately smell the pungent smell of sulfur.
"This Wang Jian is pretty good to collect!
Zhang Zhun looked at the mountains of sulfur and saltpeter in the warehouse and said to himself.
According to Mo Yu's preliminary statistics, there are at least 3,000 kilograms of sulfur and 5,000 kilograms of saltpeter in the Guangji Library. If the guard team continues to have 500 people, the gunpowder they make will take a few months. Of course, the premise is that Zhang Zhun does not make any big gift packages. Such a big gift package is too consuming gunpowder.
Zhang Zhun was a little confused. Didn’t Wang Jian not like muskets? Even his servants used bows, arrows, scimitars, so how could they store so much saltpeter and sulfur? Later I learned that every garrison in the Ming Dynasty had to hand over certain supplies to the treasury. For example, saltpeter and sulfur were also among them. There were several mountains next to Lingshan Guard, Tiewu Mountain, Dazhu Mountain, Xiaozhu Mountain, etc., all of which were produced with some sulfur and saltpeter. Over time, there were quite a lot of them. Wang Jian probably took these things and refused to hand over to the treasury. As a result, Zhang Zhun was cheaper.
The third warehouse is the A character library, which is stored as cloth and pigments, and it is also empty. However, the harvest of the fourth warehouse has eliminated Zhang Zhun's unhappiness. The fourth warehouse is the B character library, which is stored as fat jackets, war shoes, soldiers' fur hats and other supplies. At a glance, it is filled with stuff inside, which is really rich.
Looking at the Ming army uniforms that could equip 5,000 people, Zhang Zhun could only be speechless. There was no army, so why do you need so many military uniforms? Even if you buy and sell materials like military uniforms, no one wants them! It's really strange!
Zhang Zhun carefully checked these military uniforms and found that the quality was OK. In terms of personal abilities, Wang Jian is indeed much better than Zhao Yinying. The military uniforms produced by Lingshanwei themselves are much better than those produced by Aoshanwei themselves. At least, if you tear them hard, these military uniforms will not easily crack. Aoshanwei's will not work. As long as you pull them hard, they will tear them up immediately, and cut corners will be very powerful.
The guards cannot use these supplies for the time being, but with the arrival of winter, these are all very good clothes for cold protection. Now Zhang Zhun is wearing the title of commander of Aoshan Guard, and it seems natural that the soldiers of the guards are all wearing the uniforms of the Ming army. Even if they are just doing it.
"OK!"
"Accept them all!"
"Please keep it!"
Zhang Zhun said thoughtfully.
The fifth is the character C library, which stores cotton and silk. It is not empty inside, but there is still some cotton. However, due to poor storage, these cottons are all broken and black, mixed with a large amount of rat shit, emitting a foul smell. Even if they are given for free, no one dares to accept it, so they have to be dispossed as garbage.
The sixth is the T-shaped library, which stores copper and iron, animal skins, and Sumu. The materials in this warehouse are pretty good, and there are a lot of them. However, the quality of steel is not satisfactory. At most, it is used to make agricultural tools, and it is not possible to make weapons, unless you are desperate. The animal skins, Sumu and other things seem to be used for the time being... Well, no, Xue Zhidie's shipyard seems to be able to use them, so he allocated them to her.
The seventh one is the Wu character library, which stores armor, including various colors of armor. It can be seen that there should be a lot of things inside. However, before Zhang Zhun arrived, they were extracted and used. Therefore, the number was not a lot. The ones left were very bulky iron armor. New-style troops basically no longer equipped with iron armor, and these things can only be used to regain the furnace.
The eighth one is the stolen fine warehouse, which stores official property for confiscation. According to regulations, confiscated materials should be stored here. However, as we all know, these confiscated materials are usually put into their private pockets. Therefore, the warehouse is also empty.
The ninth one is Guanghuiku, which is the money banknote, which is the treasure banknote. Of course, it must be empty inside and not even the mice come to visit. Because the treasure banknotes of the Ming Dynasty are a joke in themselves. The number of issuances is too large and too extensive, and the people firmly refuse to use it.
The tenth is Guangying Library, which stores silk, saro, and lingjin. Obviously, valuable things will never appear here. Therefore, this warehouse is also empty and even mice do not come to visit.
In the final inventory, Zhang Zhun’s biggest gain is:
Thousands of kilograms of saltpeter;
Thousands of kilograms of sulfur;
Five thousand sets of Ming army uniforms;
Several copper and iron, animal skins, and suma;
Several armors;
...
"Sir, how do you deal with these things?"
Mo Yu asked softly.
"Saltpeter and gunpowder are all handed over to Gao Weifeng, that is the Gao Danzi, the copper and iron are handed over to Li Fenglai, the animal skin, and Su Mu handed over to Xue Zhidie. The uniforms and armor of various colors are temporarily placed in the warehouse, and we will talk about it later."
Zhang Zhun said with a quick knife to cut the mess.
Among all the materials, the first ones to be used were of course saltpeter and sulfur. Gao Weifeng was nicknamed "Gao Danzi" and was a craftsman who specialized in making gunpowder in Fushan Institute. Due to Zhang Zhun's intense heat, the granular gunpowder he was in charge of has always been of good quality. With sufficient raw materials, the guards would not have to worry about insufficient ammunition in the short term.
After coming out of Shiku, Zhang Zhun was in a good mood.
Wang Jian is really a fool. Before leaving, he didn't know how to set a fire to burn all the Shiku, and he would give himself a free gift. So much saltpeter and sulfur were enough for him to eat a pot. However, when he ran away, he probably didn't have the chance to remember Shiku at all.
At this moment, someone hurriedly reported some special news to Zhang Zhun.
Zhang Zhun frowned and shouted: "Zhang Lingyun, come with me!"
Zhang Lingyun was confused and hurriedly took the soldiers and set off with Zhang Zhun.
Zhang Zhun followed the person who reported the news to the back of the Red Mansion. There was a very narrow hole here. If you accidentally thought it was a treasure cave. However, after entering, a foul stench came. It turned out that this was the water prison of the Red Mansion. On the turbid water, mice as big as kittens swam around freely, without any fear of Zhang Zhun and others coming in. Even a mouse ran towards Zhang Zhun's soles and tried to climb onto Zhang Zhun's body. He was really brave.
"Bang!"
Zhang Zhun kicked the fat mouse hard on the opposite wall with casual kick.
"puff!"
The mouse hit the wall and died immediately.
Then it slowly slid off the wall, falling into the stinky water, and not moving any more.
"vomit!"
Behind Zhang Zhun, someone couldn't help but vomit.
The people who were imprisoned in the water prison basically had their muscles rotten due to long periods of soaking, and some could even see the crimson bones. Some prisoners should have been imprisoned for too long, and all the muscles in their bodies rotted, leaving only the bones hanging on the rusty iron chains. A rough figure showed that there were hundreds of crimson bones. Judging from the bones, some of the dead were women.
It is unimaginable why Wang Jian imprisoned all the women here, and what kind of woman he had such deep hatred with him. The wall next to each dead seemed to be engraved with deep ravines, as if writing. However, because it was too long and the moisture was heavy, those fonts could not be recognized. However, it is conceivable how much anger each word contained.
There is no living person.
All dead.
If you guess correctly, all the people who were put into the water prison would starve to death and then turn into thick white bones. It is unimaginable what kind of death process this is. No wonder some people vomit. Normal people really can't imagine all this.
Zhang Zhun suddenly turned around and looked at Mo Yu.
Mo Yu couldn't help but shivered.
If he is imprisoned here...
"Sir... what should I do?" Zhang Lingyun was young after all, and had never seen such a tragic situation before, and his voice couldn't help but tremble. In fact, most of the soldiers who followed in just now could no longer bear such a scene and couldn't help but retreat.
Zhang Zhun also felt his face stiff and couldn't bear to look at it more. He didn't say anything and quietly retreated. After a while, Zhang Zhun said deeply: "If you catch Wang Jian, just lock him in."
That night, Liu Hang and Liu Baoyu arrived at Lingshan Acropolis. After discussing a few simple words with Zhang Zhun, they would conduct a comprehensive discussion with Fang Yu and 50 other military household representatives on the issue of dividing land. If the details are determined, a notice will be posted tomorrow morning and the dividing land will be officially carried out.
Zhang Zhun did not ask about these specific issues, and he gave them all power to Liu Hang to deal with. However, in the end, the problem was found on Zhang Zhun. After only half an hour of discussion, Liu Baoyu came to report that the military households of Lingshan Guard had not fully mobilized their enthusiasm.
To be precise, it is not just that the enthusiasm was not mobilized, but that there was no slight enthusiasm. The military households seemed a little cunning. Judging from the situation at the discussion meeting, these fields were not what they took the initiative to ask for division, but were forcibly assigned to them by the guards. In this way, when Wang Jian came back, they could say that they were forced to accept it, reducing the risk of their family being confiscated and exterminated.
"I see."
After listening to Liu Baoyu's report, Zhang Zhun couldn't help but sneer.
I want to divide the fields and not take risks, which is really a slippery one!
Well, since you don’t want it, why should I beg you to have fields? Do you want so much land? You don’t want so much land! I, Zhang Zhun, will be the biggest landlord! All the fields in Lingshanwei belong to me, Zhang Zhun!
Late at night, Zhang Zhun appeared in the hall where the discussion was held.
Everyone's eyes immediately gathered on Zhang Zhun. Perhaps they felt some strange gazes, some of which meant they couldn't help but shrink back to avoid contact with Zhang Zhun's eye. Some people were obviously lowered their heads with guilt. Fang Yu's face looked ashamed and did not dare to contact Zhang Zhun's eye.
Zhang Zhun glanced at everyone calmly and said calmly: "I already know the situation here. I fully accept everyone's opinions and postpone the matter of dividing land. The land situation in Lingshanwei will be temporarily maintained. All land deeds will be handled by me Zhang Zhun!"
After saying that, the meeting was announced.
The representatives attending the meeting looked at each other and wanted to say something, but they didn't know where to start. Zhang Zhun's appearance was completely different from Liu Hang and Liu Baoyu. They had no chance to speak at all. Zhang Zhun did not give them a chance to speak. Fang Yu was also eager to speak but stopped.
Everyone could see that Zhang Zhun was angry!
Zhang Zhun was very angry, and the consequences were very serious!
Chapter completed!
