Chapter 42 Four-hour work system(1/2)
At this time, about fifteen miles outside Xiangyang City, Wen Du and others were stationed around the nearby hills in order not to be discovered, while Huang Zu hurried back with the structural diagram of the Governor's Mansion.
"I've got the stuff"
With that said, Huang Zu handed the blueprint to Wen Du.
"Great, Bo Fu, go arrange the manpower!"
"Okay! I'll go right away!"
After receiving the order, Sun Ce immediately ran out of the tent.
"Thank you for your hard work, General Huang. Are there any dangers along the way?"
Faced with Wen Du's concern, Huang Zu also waved his hand, and then said
"I didn't encounter any danger, but I was interrogated when I entered and exited the city gate. Now they must have informed Cai Hao about my appearance. If he was smarter, he would have sent more people throughout Xiangyang City."
"There's nothing to be afraid of. Anyway, the defense is already tight enough. By the way, have you notified Kuai Liang that we are about to take action?"
"As I said, I told him to stay at home for the next few days and close the door."
"Brother Seti, people have been summoned."
While the two were talking, Sun Ce walked in from outside the tent to inform him of the matter. Wen Du nodded and followed him out to a relatively open area. He saw a circle of soldiers surrounding him, and in the middle
, there were a hundred people of all kinds standing, with more or less panic on their faces. Wen Du looked at them, and then said
"Do you know why I arrested you?"
…………
Seeing no one answered, Wen Du raised his voice and asked again
"Do you know why I arrested you?!"
"Because we are tomb robbers..."
Among the crowd, I don’t know who answered, Wen Du also asked loudly
"Who said that? Stand up and let me see."
Then, a man pushed through the crowd and walked out slowly. He was shorter than the other tomb robbers, but his arm muscles were not inferior to any of them.
"Unexpectedly, you are not tall, but you are quite courageous. Unlike others, you are hesitant and dare not speak out. What is your name?"
"The common man's name is Zhao Peng"
After he answered, Wen Du started to take out his sleeves, but he turned left and right, and seemed to find no money. He then hooked Sun Ce's neck next to him, turned around, and whispered
"Give me some money"
"Ah? Don't you have any money?"
"I'm still a team leader. How much money can I get in a month? It's all been spent long ago."
"But I went out to fight and changed my clothes. I left my wallet at home and only have a little bit of money..."
"Broken ones are fine"
Since Wen Du didn't want to pick anything, Sun Ce started to fumble around in his belt, found some broken silver, and handed it to Wen Du. After that, Wen Du gave all the silver to Zhao Peng.
"This is your reward for answering the question."
"Thank you, sir!"
Looking at the silver in Zhao Peng's hand, the people behind him stretched their necks, with a look of regret on their faces. Maybe they were thinking that they should have answered the question before... Looking at the people behind him with eager eyes
After hearing Du, he realized that his little trick was effective, so he asked
"Do you want silver?"
"want to!!"
"Then answer me, one

How many meters can you dig in an hour?”
As soon as the question came up, someone quickly answered it.
"Back to the official, it depends on the situation and the number of people. If it is a trail passed by a single person, with so many of us, we can dig about 40 to 50 meters in an hour. But if it is a large road with many people walking together,
Then the efficiency will be greatly reduced."
"Then do you know where this place is ahead?"
"I know, it's Xiangyang"
"Yes, so now I have a job for you to do. I want you to dig from here to the Governor's Mansion in Xiangyang City!"
As soon as Wen Du finished speaking, a lively discussion broke out in the crowd.
"Quiet!"
Wen Du shouted loudly, and the crowd's discussion calmed down.
"What are you arguing about? If you have any questions, just ask."
"Master, you want us to dig into the Governor's Mansion, but we don't dare. If we are caught, we will lose our heads."
"That's not right. You are tomb robbers, and we are official servants. Even if you don't dare to dig up the governor's mansion, you are already criminals. Life or death is a matter of one sentence. If you still want to live,
Then do as I say”
"This...but we don't know what it looks like inside the Governor's Mansion. What if..."
Before the man could finish speaking, he was blocked by Wen Du.
"Don't be afraid, I can let you know that I have the structural diagram of the governor's mansion in my hand. Just dig for me towards the living room of Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou."
After saying this, Wen Du handed the blueprint to them. The group of people couldn't help but sigh that the structural diagram of the Governor's Mansion was indeed very detailed.
"Do you have any questions now?"
Facing Wen Du's question, no one said anything. Seeing this, Wen Du coughed and said
"Since you all have no questions, let me tell you my requirements. First, you can deviate, but you must not deviate too much. Second, due to time constraints, the hundred of you will be divided into three equal parts.
For each part, dig out four hours for each part and rotate it; thirdly, as long as you finish this matter for me, I will not only forget about your previous things, but also decide what to do based on the length of time spent.
Your reward method, so if you don’t want to go to jail, don’t want to lose your head, and want more money, then dig for me! Dig day and night!”
"After digging through, can you really spare us?"
Faced with doubts, Wen Du spoke again
"I swear on my integrity, if I break my promise and gain weight, I will not be able to marry a wife for the rest of my life!"
Maybe they don't understand what integrity means, but of course they understand that they can't get married. Seeing that Wen Du dared to say such a vicious oath, they naturally have nothing to question. Wen Du saw that they finally
After he calmed down, he stopped delaying and preached to them.
"Since everyone has no objections, let's start without further delay. Zhao Peng, I will leave the personnel allocation and management to you."
"Okay sir"
Hearing that Wen Du actually entrusted such matters to him, Zhao Peng naturally agreed happily and started to group everyone into groups without stopping.
"This is the "four-hour working day" you were talking about, right?"
Seeing the tomb robbers starting to take action in front of him, Sun Ce also turned to ask, and Wen Du nodded in affirmation.
"Why is it four o'clock? Can't it be done at other o'clock?"
"Because there are twelve hours in a day, and according to my

It has been observed that people have the best energy when they work for four hours. During this time, there is no need to eat or sleep. Although the time is short, the work efficiency is very good. The remaining eight hours are also divided into four hours.
Recreation time and four hours of sleep time, after adequate rest, the human body can reach its optimal state."
"Oh, that's it..."
Wen Du explained a lot, and Sun Ce gave a half-knowledge answer. Seeing him like this, Wen Du himself couldn't explain anymore. He couldn't really explain the eight-hour work system to him, right? Then wouldn't he listen better?
I don’t understand...]
"Forget it, you just need to have a general understanding now. When I fully implement the four-hour work system in the future, you will naturally understand."
"That's right. Although I can't compare to you and Gong Jin, I still have great confidence in my brain."
Seeing the confident smile on Sun Ce's face, Wen Du didn't know how to answer him, so he started to change the topic.
"Have all the scouts been sent out?"
"That's right, Gong Jin is also observing the surroundings from the top of the highest mountain nearby."
Sun Ce's answer made Wen Du very satisfied.
"That puts me at ease. By the way, after the hole is dug, don't let these 100 people go. Keep them all and form an independent team."
"Why is this? They are tomb robbers. If we don't punish them, we are giving them mercy. What does Brother Seti want to do by leaving them?"
