Chapter 204 Who are they?
Before Yang Shaofeng could come to fool him, Ikkyu Son-ku, who had been lame himself, consciously sat in a wheelchair and was preparing to go directly to the stretcher next.
For such talents, Yang Shaofeng naturally could not put all the eggs on the fool Yang San, but asked Zhu Zhanji to find some good men from the Jinyiwei to pretend to be workers, and then stay with Ikkyu Zongchun every day to see when he really cut the chicken.
It depends on how Ikki Son-ku chooses when I can go.
The most important thing is that compared with the Danbi Stone Project that is about to be carried out, Ikki Son-ku's weight is really not enough.
In the twelfth month of the 16th year of Yongle, the court was busy taking stock of the gains and losses of the year. For example, the Ministry of Revenue wanted to take stock of how much silver was lost last year, how many rats were running in the bank treasury, and the Ministry of Works also wanted to take stock of what Yongle had done in the 16th year, how many bridges had been built, and how many roads had been paved. The rest of the other departments also had their own things to be busy with.
Yang Shaofeng was no exception, especially the huge Danbi stone that was used behind Jinshen Palace, which had to be transported to the imperial city during the cold winter, otherwise it would have to be dragged until next winter.
The key is that this Danbi stone is really big, and it is almost impossible to transport this Danbi stone by conventional means, because no one or no animal husbandry can pull it.
This means that if this Danbi stone cannot be transported into the imperial city early, then other projects outside it will not be able to start construction except for the foundation, which will affect the entire construction of the imperial city, or even the entire capital.
The problem is that in this cold weather, it is not easy for the people to make some wages. Yang Shaofeng also couldn't bear to use tens of thousands of civilians and thousands of large animals.
Confucius said: Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you.
Mencius said: Respect our old age and the elderly are the elderly of others; when we are young, we are young, we are young.
Yang Shaofeng felt that he was unwilling to do this job and was unwilling to let his family do this job, so the people could not suffer this.
After all, it is the reason why both sons say that they are wrong, so they must not be wrong.
But it is not good if Danbi Stone is not lucky, because this thing is to be taken away by Zhu Laosi, and it symbolizes the royal majesty of the Ming Dynasty. No one dares to joke about this matter.
Then Yang Shaofeng thought about using "labor" to forget it - they can't be allowed to eat free rice, right? And letting them transport the Danbi Stone can also allow the people to rest.
Then, Yang Shaofeng organized a labor force of 20,000 people.
Then, as one of the workers, Ikki Sojun was fortunate to see this largest Danbi stone in the world.
After looking at it for a while, Ikkyu Son-ku scratched his scalp that had grown a lot of hair and asked Yang San: "Is this stone we are going to transport?"
Yang San nodded and said, "That's right, it's just to transport this Danbi stone into the imperial city and place it behind Jinshen Hall."
Ikki Sonchun said oh, and turned around the Danbi Stone for half a circle. After coming back, he said with a frown: "This stone is too big, and there is no way to transport it into the imperial city at once. However, I have a way to transport it into the imperial city quickly."
Yang San suddenly became interested and said with a smile: "You said, if your method is feasible, I will ask you for merits from the superiors. There will definitely be rewards and rewards at that time."
Ikki Sojun lowered his head and thought about it, saying, "The weather is very cold now, and there is no way to cut the stone by people. This is the biggest problem in transporting this stone.
However, we can light a fire around the stone. When the fire is almost done, we can pour cold water on the stone, so that the stone will crack and be transported."
After saying that, Ikkyu Sumjun raised his head, looked at Yang San with excitement, and said, "That's right, this method can make the stone crack. Just use a car to pull it into the imperial city!"
Yang San's first reaction was to draw a knife to kill the stupid stone in front of him - what is the Danbi Stone? It was the imperial road that the emperor wanted to pass through the sky when he went to court, and it was also the imperial road that the emperor usually had to step on. You stupid to crack the Danbi Stone?
Mom, if you can break the transportation, can't rely on gunpowder? You're not stupid? You're not stupid here?
If you think you are lucky, you will die by yourself. You are planning to take these 20,000 "laborers" and your Master Yang San and the eldest master together. It's stupid!
Unfortunately, there was no knife around Yang San's waist, and Yang San also remembered Yang Shaofeng's advice. He had to force a smile and said to Ikki Zongchun: "No, this Dan Bi stone must be transported into the imperial city intact. There cannot be a slight cumbersome in the middle, neither cracked nor damaged."
Ikki Sojun's face turned red and he retorted: "This is impossible! Such a big stone, let alone relying on manpower, even if you add a few thousand horses, you may not be able to pull it."
"That may not be."
Yang San smiled and patted Ikkyu Sonchun's shoulder and said, "In this world, there are always many people whose wisdom is far beyond the imagination of mortals like us, such as my eldest son."
Ikki Sumjun was stunned: "Big Master?"
Yang San nodded and smiled and said, "My eldest son is the top scorer. From the boy exam to the palace exam, they are all top scorers. The construction of this capital is also hosted by my eldest son.
Don't worry, just a piece of Danbi stone is just a little bigger, but my eldest son has already arranged the delivery method. We just need to do things according to the eldest son's instructions."
Ikki Sorun still couldn't believe it.
But is it a little bigger?
This piece of Danbi stone, which is more than five meters long and about one meter wide, has to weigh between 30 and 500,000 kilograms, but it is a bit larger? Is this manpower able to transport it?
Yang San naturally also saw the suspicion in Yixiong Zongchun's eyes.
However, Yang San decided to use the actual result to slap Ikki Sonchun in the face - how can my young master's wisdom be compared to you, an ordinary man?
Isn’t it just a little bigger Danbi Stone?
If you want to transport it to the palace, you naturally have to build a road first.
If it were in previous years, this road would probably be extremely difficult to repair, but now with the cement invented by the young master, this road can be repaired as smooth as possible?
At worst, no matter what kind of bird-like appearance he is on the ground now, he will just lay cement on top and lay a foot thick of cement. Can't he bear the weight of this Danbi stone?
If you have a road, you can't be able to transport it? Even if you get a big animal, it won't work? Can't push it or pull it?
What a joke? I splashed water directly on the road, and continued to pour it up when the water freezes. I made the ice a foot thicker, then polished it and directly spread the ice under the Danbi Stone. In addition, more than 20,000 workers were pulled and pulled, so I couldn't get it anymore?
If you are dying, you will waste more cement, more water, and at most, you will add some rope and food.
The waste of food is naturally given to these workers. After all, hundreds of thousands of kilograms of Danbi stone cannot be used to work but not to give people food. Even if the animals are still fed grass.
Then Ikki Sojun watched the Danbi stone weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds being dragged by tens of thousands of workers with ropes and drove towards the direction of the imperial city little by little.
Yes, tens of thousands of workers did not directly flock to 20,000 workers, nor did they use any large animals like cattle, horses, mules, but divided more than 20,000 workers into two shifts, dragging this huge Danzhu stone back and forth.
The final result is that by the time the Danbi Stone was transported into the imperial city, it had already reached the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month - it took more than twenty days!
...
Zhu Laosi's ears were filled with the sound of hey when tens of thousands of workers shouting slogans together, and he looked at the lively scene in front of him as if he was stupid.
After squinting his eyes for a while, Zhu Laosi said, "Why don't you use animals?"
Yang Shaofeng, who was standing behind Zhu Laosi, bowed and said, "Grandfather, the people have been busy for a year and the animals have been busy for a year. It's time to take a break."
"What about them?" pointed to the tens of thousands of "laborers" outside Jinshen Hall, Zhu Laosi asked: "They are not humans? Or are they not even as good as animals?"
Yang Shaofeng thoughtfully said: "Go to my grandfather, these are all laborers that my grandson bought for five taels of silver, and none of them were my people in the Ming Dynasty."
"Then what?"
Zhu Laosi sneered and said, "Just because there are no Ming people in them, you don't treat them as humans? Even the Ming animals are more important than them, right?"
Seeing that Yang Shaofeng was being scolded, Zhu Zhanji, who had just lowered his head and smiled secretly, immediately raised his head and bowed to Zhu Laosi, "Grandfather, please calm down. Grandson has a share in this matter, and it was discussed by grandson and brother-in-law together."
Yang Shaofeng also bowed and said, "Grandfather calms down, my grandson knows that he is wrong."
Zhu Laosi shouted and said, "But he will never change it. He will still commit the crime next time he has the chance, right?"
Seeing Yang Shaofeng lowering his head and not speaking, Zhu Laosi continued, "I know that if this were the people of the Ming Dynasty, you bastards would definitely collect all the cows, horses and mules from Shuntian Prefecture to replace the people. If there were not enough large animals in Shuntian Prefecture, you would go to a further place to search, right?"
Yang Shaofeng's head was slightly unaware of - isn't that a matter of course?
How wonderful the people of the Ming Dynasty were. They farmed and worked, paid taxes, and the ones I went out to eat were the watermelons they had worked hard to grow. Your Zhu Laosi's harem was full of beautiful daughters they worked hard to raise.
The animals in the Ming Dynasty are also good. They have to work hard when they are alive, and they can peel and eat meat when they die. Now they can finally rest with the people, but are you still letting them work?
Do you want your conscience to be eaten by dogs? People need to know how to be grateful!
As for these Japanese slaves, there are also "laborers" who were captured and sold by Li Bin from Jiaozhi?
