Chapter 19 The prototype of the commune in Zhangjia Village
When Zhang San returned home, his little sister and Xiaoyu greeted Zhang San warmly. The two little girls were very proud that Zhang San could attend the court meeting.
"Third brother, what will happen today? Isn't the palace very grand?" The younger sister took Zhang San's arm and asked curiously. Xiaoyu next to her also looked curious.
"It's nothing. Didn't I tell you last time?" Zhang San said perfunctorily, and then briefly talked about some things about today's morning court. Of course, he did not tell the two little girls about his impeachment, which saved the two of them.
Worry.
After saying that, Zhang San went to the shed in the courtyard to catch up on his sleep. He got up too early in the morning and now he has no energy at all.
After sleeping until noon, Xiaoyu called him up to have lunch. Zhang San got up and walked to Muramasa's home. Through today's court meeting, Zhang San realized that he had to do something quickly to enrich his team so that he could cope with the future.
Possible crises.
Of course, at the moment, Zhang San can only set out from the village to officially implement the plan he made some time ago. He originally wanted to wait for the new mansion to be built before making arrangements, but time does not wait for me and I cannot afford to wait.
After arriving at the village's home, Zhang San explained his purpose, and the village hurried to the village to call the heads of each household for a meeting.
The establishment of the sugar workshop enthused many people in the village and wanted to join in. However, the productivity level of the workshop in the early stage was low and the scale was small. It was impossible to meet the work needs of the whole village. Now only Muramasa's wife, daughter-in-law, and the small family
Mei and Xiaoyu are busy.
Muramasa and Zhang Quan are also responsible for export sales, and Zhang Li is on the run. Zhang San has a lot of things to do during this time, so he doesn't take care of it.
Not long after, everyone at home in the village rushed to the courtyard of Muramasa's house. Everyone gathered together and started talking, discussing in a low voice the purpose of Lord Zhang San's calling everyone.
Zhang San saw that people had almost arrived, so he cleared his throat and said: "Uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, I called you here today mainly because I want to say a few things to discuss with you."
Hearing Zhang San's polite opening remarks, everyone felt more cordial. Zhang San did not look down on the villagers because of his current status. Every time they met, he was polite and called uncle when he should be called uncle, and aunt when he should be called aunt.
In this regard, the villagers also have a good impression of their boss Zhang San.
"Zhang Jiasanlang, if you have any questions, just give me instructions."
"Master Zhang, why are you so polite? You can tell us what you want us to do."
"Master Zhang, is the sugar factory looking for someone to hire? My mother-in-law is very handy."
"Folks, the sugar workshop is looking for people to expand, but there are other things to talk about today."
"Since everyone trusts me so much, I won't beat around the bush. The main reason for calling everyone here today is to set up a commune in the village." Zhang San stood on the bench and said to everyone.
"What kind of commune does it do?" asked a villager.
Everyone is also curious about this unfamiliar term.
"Everyone, listen to me." Zhang Sanxu pressed his hand down, and the villagers stopped talking and listened intently to what Zhang San said.
Since the conditions at Zhang San's home have improved, when he sees someone in the village who has troubles or encounters difficulties, he has taken the initiative to offer help, making Zhang San very popular in the village.
"This commune is like a big family. In this big family, we allocate work tasks according to our respective specialties, and everyone can get compensation for their labor."
Zhang San briefly explained the form of the commune.
"There is no reward. If young sir needs to use us, you don't have to be so polite. Everyone here is counting on you to survive."
An elderly man in the village said this, which was unanimously approved by everyone.
“The purpose of establishing this commune is to allow families to help each other, unite together, live a good life, and no longer suffer from hunger and cold. So that the children in the family can go to school, and the elderly in the family can have something to rely on in their old age...
…”
Zhang San stood on the top and talked eloquently, and the villagers below also listened attentively. Although affected by their knowledge and knowledge, many of Zhang San's words were not very clear to everyone, but if they can have enough food and live a good life,
Everyone still heard it clearly.
Therefore, everyone yearned for this so-called commune and asked Zhang San how to join the commune.
"Everyone, please wait a minute. I will explain the specific steps to everyone one by one. If there are those who are not here today, I will also ask Muramasa to tell them. If you are interested, you can register with Muramasa first," Zhang San said.
.
There was a precedent for the sugar workshop, and everyone enthusiastically went to Muramasa to register that they wanted to join the commune.
Zhang San was very happy to see the enthusiasm of the villagers. Under the premise that he was capable, Zhang San also wanted to try to change the living conditions of the villagers, at least so that everyone would no longer go hungry.
Of course, I do this for myself. In this feudal society, people who work alone will not survive long. Only by relying on the collective can we achieve something.
Not long after, the village chief had registered a roster and what they were good at.
Zhang San picked up the brochure and took a quick look at it. Yes, although the village has a small population, only more than a hundred people, everyone knows a wide variety of things.
Now for Zhang San, what is lacking is some talents with specific skills.
Zhang San has a lot of things in his head that can be realized, but he has no theoretical knowledge, but no practical ability.
There are three people here who are good at carpentry, two people have been blacksmiths, there are more than a dozen people who can build houses, and some are good at hunting. The rest are mostly ordinary villagers who grow crops, raise chickens and ducks.
Zhang San also stayed in the village for a while, and probably got to know the situation of the villagers. Through this time, Zhang San had a clearer understanding of the villagers, which will also make it easier for Zhang San to carry out his work next.
"That's it. In addition to the sugar workshop, I want to form four groups in the early stage. The first is the bricklayer group, which will be responsible for building houses, building roads, etc. in the future."
"The second is the carpentry group, which mainly makes some furniture and some special objects."
"The third is the iron group, which is mainly responsible for making iron tools and agricultural tools."
"The fourth is the breeding group, which will be responsible for raising some chickens, ducks, geese, pigs and sheep in the future. The initial expenses of the commune will be paid by the sugar factory and me, and will be borne by the commune after the commune is running well."
"Each group elects a leader who is responsible for the specific affairs of the later groups. The president of the commune will be Muramasa. The leaders of the four groups will be elected by everyone first, and then submitted to Muramasa for approval."
"Finally, the sugar factory will be managed by my family, Xiaoyu. Do you have any objections to this?"
Zhang San made a simple layout of the commune's staffing and general work.
"Listen to the young lord"
"Yes, we will do whatever the young master says."
The villagers nodded in agreement. Since Xiaoyu came to the village, she has followed her little sister to the sugar factory and the village, and has been well known to the villagers. Since it belongs to Zhang San's family, the villagers naturally have no objection.
"Zhang San, you should be the president. I'm old and don't understand this." Old Muramasa said with a grimace.
"Hehehe, Muramasa, just feel free to be the president. With me supporting you behind your back, what are you afraid of?" Zhang San said with a smile.
"I'm mainly afraid of betraying your trust and everyone else's," Muramasa replied with a sigh.
"Don't worry, the company will let you and all of us rest assured, right?" Zhang San shouted to the villagers.
"Yes, Muramasa, we all believe in you." The villagers also said one after another.
Before Zhang San, Muramasa had the highest reputation in the village. Of course, Muramasa also treated the big guys with sincerity, so although everyone was a little surprised that Zhang San did not become the president, it did not affect everyone's trust in the old Muramasa.
Under the strong persuasion of the big guy and Zhang San, Muramasa nodded and agreed.
"Okay, you will discuss the candidates for the leaders of each group later. Once you are selected, come to my place tomorrow morning. I will explain to you in detail what to do next."
Seeing that things were almost done, Zhang San said to everyone and returned home.
