Under the leadership of Chu Yu, Wu De and his men quickly found this secret pavilion. It was embedded behind the wainscot and was tightly seamed. Even if you looked carefully, you couldn't see any flaws. Chu Yu didn't know where the mechanism was.
The time traveler was too lazy to look for it, so Wang Ruixiang found a fire ax and started chopping randomly, quickly cutting a gap in the board wall.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the cabinet was opened, the owner of the Gou family, Gou Xunyi, was unexpectedly discovered. He was hiding in the secret cabinet of the study. Behind the wall was a staircase, and going down was an underground secret room with five people in it.
The mahogany cabinets are all locked. There are several tanks of water and a lot of dry food in the room. It seems that it will not be a problem to last ten and a half days. Gou Xunyi looked much better than Saddam when he was captured. Although he was shaking, it was not a big deal.
Disgraced.
Gou Xunyi tried his best to stay calm, but he was shaking so much that he could not stand firmly. A local tyrant and evil gentry like him usually lorded it over his own one-third of an acre of land, except for being polite to the officials and gentlemen in the county.
, he is simply a local emperor, he kills people and sets fires without blinking an eye. At this moment, he was captured alive. Knowing that the enemy is coming, he immediately lost his strength. I wanted to say a few words of begging and begging, but I couldn't say them.
Already.
Several people thought that this tycoon who was making waves in the county and colluding with pirates was such a heroic figure. Seeing his appearance, they felt contempt. Wu De ordered the people to be dragged to the mass meeting, and he brought a few fine people with him.
, he broke open the locks on the mahogany cabinet one by one, and it turned out that there were all kinds of account books, contracts, bills and the like, as well as many bundles of letters tied with strings. No one was interested in these things.
But he also knew that since he hid it here solemnly, it must be all important items. This is not a place to organize, so he simply took it back and asked an expert to deal with it. There were several large boxes in the secret room, three of which contained Spanish silver dollars.
It was dazzlingly white, totaling more than ten thousand taels. There were also two small boxes containing valuables such as gold and jewelry. One of the items caught Wu De's attention: it was a small plastic compact mirror - wasn't this
Did Mr. Wen sell a large amount of these things to this time and space back then? It's unclear where this Gou Da thing came from.
Gou Da's fate has long been decided. At the meeting where it was decided to attack Goujiazhuang, the Gou family's fate was "death penalty". There was originally a debate over whether to kill all the members of the family, but in the end, the decision to kill them all was reluctantly passed.
Many people are still murmuring and disgusted with the resolution. It is better now that Gou Da and his family are running away to death, leaving only a bare commander, so that no one will have a conscience. As for killing Gou Da, no one will feel sad.
Gou Xunyi was escorted to the stage, and the crowd in the audience shouted angrily, "Kill him! Kill him!" Apparently the atmosphere in front of the travelers had an effect. The crowd was excited for a while. Xi Yazhou shouted at
Gou Bri winked, and the male immediately understood. He picked up the clods of garbage and threw them at Gou Xunyi. The power of example is infinite, and then countless bricks and stones were thrown at him like raindrops. The time-travelers had already
He escaped. How could Gou Da, who was tied like a rice dumpling, escape? Just like that, in a burst of noisy noises, Gou Xunyi, who was running rampant for a while, was smashed to the head and bleeding, and died on the spot. When his bloody body
When Zhang Xingjiao held his head high and danced wildly on the stage like an Indian, the crowd fell into a madness of revenge and bloodthirsty. Many Gou family members who usually had public anger or grievances were dragged off the stage.
When he came down, he was beaten to death by punches and kicks. Travelers were surrounding him, and many of them felt extremely uncomfortable.
Smarter people have vaguely guessed the meaning of the Executive Committee's move to incite the masses to engage in terror: This is the best way for the villagers of Goujiazhuang in the past and Damei Village now to vote. From now on, they have no choice.
It can only be firmly tied to the time traveler's chariot.
While this cruel farce was being staged, Wu De had already left the scene. He wanted to discuss the transportation and distribution of the supplies with Dai Xie, who was responsible for inspecting the supplies.
The Gou family's house in Damei Village will be completely demolished, and the dismantled bricks, tiles and wood will be used as building materials. As for Damei Village, fifty households will be left for farming based on the carrying capacity of the land. Other households and various
All craftsmen moved to Bairen City to directly control a group of people. The remaining people will establish village committees, militia and other grassroots organizations according to the model of Yanchang Village.
Dai Xie was extremely busy here. In addition to the things he had to transport back to Bairen City, he also had to keep some for local villagers' relief. As for a large amount of furniture, daily necessities, clothes and other items, he also took them out and distributed them to the people. He
Discuss with Xi Yazhou: Some people suggest that people should be allowed to take it by themselves, but as a result, only the bold and powerful will benefit, while the timid and weak will often be snatched away by others even if they grab something, or even be killed.
The strong will kill. Therefore, the distribution this time will be uniformly arranged by the Planning Committee.
After arranging everything, Wu De led a large group of people and supplies to evacuate Damei Village first, while Xi Yazhou stayed there. He also wanted to help establish grassroots political power in the local area. Zhang Xingjiao recommended several people who were close to him to serve as leaders.
: One is called Mabangping, a small trader with a little literacy; the other was originally a tenant of the Gou family, named Jin Changman, who is in his forties. The two of them have some prestige in the village. Gou Bri also thought
He found an official position in the newly established village committee, but Xi Yazhou knew that this person was unreliable and directly sent him to the immigration team.
The work of moving Goujiazhuang's property and relocating people lasted for almost half a month. During this period, the engineering team organized manpower and machinery to repair the road from Bairen City to the county seat. Even the observation post originally located on the mountain outside the city was
We simply passed through Shuang Road - a three-story blockhouse with an all-brick structure was built grandly on the mountain. Standing on the top of the blockhouse, you can use a high-power telescope to see the details of the county government's Mr. Li who was interrogating the case and spanking. Then.
Combined with a PHS phone, it is almost possible to do live broadcasts.
Lingao County will be completely deaf and mute, allowing them to build a large-scale construction across the Wenlan River. The residents of the county are already used to these rumbling steel monsters, although no one dares to approach them.
Construction machinery, but every time the machinery started to operate, there were always many people watching from a distance. Some wealthy gentlemen even sat on sliding pole sedans, took their wives, concubines, children and many servants, and set up on a small hillock from a distance.
Put a few wicker chairs in the shed and drink tea while watching them construct, just like looking at a zoetrope.
For the common people, the changes did not stop there. More and more farmers came to the market outside Bairen City. Their extremely strong appetite attracted a large number of nearby farmers. At first, they only had one chicken and one duck.
, a few kilograms of eggs or a load of vegetables, then a few pieces of cloth woven by the woman herself, and then a pig... The time-travelers were innocent, and the price they gave was slightly higher than the normal market price, and the payment was all in pre-Apocalypse
The good money made everyone flock to it, and more and more people came.
This is the side of the short-haired bed. The short-haired ones are well known to everyone. Not to mention the bandits and strongmen from all walks of life. Even if they are doing business in the county, they don't dare to come over at leisure. There is no one on the ground and the ground is calm. In addition, this year
The autumn harvest was pretty decent, and there was a little bit of peace. When more people came, someone set up a shed in the market, set up a stove, sold some vegetarian tea, and provided accommodation for the night. The sellers sold the goods
After getting the money, I also wanted to buy some things to go back to, so vendors selling rouge, gouache, household utensils, farm tools and the like also gathered here, followed by fortune tellers and letter writers. In the past few days, Wu Nanhai was here
During the inspection, he discovered several women who were wearing makeup and makeup - prostitutes were also here. Wu Nanhai was so excited that he almost shed tears - our market has finally become a place!
In less than a month, the empty space outside the east gate has now magically been erected with a large bamboo shed. Although in terms of scale and popularity, it cannot compete with a market in a remote town in the 21st century.
In comparison, this is already a very good result for the business department of Traverser.
On the edge of this large tract of simple sheds, close to the moat outside the east gate, stands out a two-story building with an all-red brick structure. This is the newly built Dongmen City Management Office of Bairen City, which is also the administrative center.
The office of the commercial department of the committee. In front of the small building is a corridor, which can provide shelter from the sun and rain. There is a stone platform in the hall at the main entrance, on which three different weighing instruments are displayed. A set of mass weighing instruments: one kilogram, five
One stone weight each of ten grams and one gram; a one-meter-long ruler and a filled one-liter water jug.
The implementation of new weights and measures is an important task for the commercial sector. Although the practice of unifying weights and measures has been in place since Qin Shihuang, in fact weights and measures have never been truly unified in ancient society. Every industry and every region uses the same weights and measures name.
, but the essence is different, and some are even very different. Not only has it caused many disputes and contradictions, but officials and profiteers of the past dynasties have also used it to make profits. The commercial department decided to start from Dongmen City, which was not popular here and now, and transform the modern society into
The standard weights and measures system was implemented. All purchases and sales in Dongmen City are measured and priced according to this new set of weights and measures. As for transactions between indigenous people, they do not yet have enough new weighing instruments to supply the market.
