Just when various policies of the White Horse Court were being implemented one after another, Zhao Ran invited Yuan Hao over.
"Yuan Supervisor has been working hard during this period. Now the construction of the official road, the west line is about to be completed, and the north line will be under construction soon. It will be completed by mid-July."
"What the abbot said is true. With all the spiritual kings of Maharaja Mountain showing off their power, it is really unimaginable! Therefore, as soon as the construction of the northern line begins, I plan to start preparing for the southern line. The southern line will bypass the four major mountain systems. It¡¯s relatively long, so I¡¯m considering recruiting an additional 500 people.¡±
"By coincidence, you and I have thought of the same place, and I was about to discuss the issue of the southern front with you. What I mean is, can the manpower for the southern front be recruited from the three tribes?"
Yuan Hao looked troubled: "I'm afraid this won't be easy. It's already been the third year since the abbot came to Baima Yuan. When you know the situation of the three tribes, they almost ignore our Taoist temple and are self-sufficient in the mountains. At most, they go down to buy things. Some necessities of life.¡±
Zhao Ran said: "That's what I think. The so-called self-sufficiency is probably a question. Can they really be self-sufficient? I speculate that those who can be self-sufficient must be the leaders of the three tribes, the real lower-level tribesmen. , life must be difficult.¡±
Yuan Hao said: "What the abbot said is certainly true, but the root of the problem lies here. The people at the bottom have no right to speak. Even if they want to come out to work, they have to have their leaders speak out."
¡°Then discuss with the leaders and ask them to release people to work.¡±
"Here's the difficulty. These leaders, big and small, regard the people as their own cattle and sheep. It's too late to let them work for themselves. How can they be released to work for us?"
"They are unwilling to let people go because the price we offer is not enough. We can offer a price that is acceptable to them. For example, we are now recruiting civilian husbands, and men will be given ten coins a day, and women will be given eight coins a day. At the same time, food and housing are provided on the construction site. Can it be like this, whoever can let people out to work, we will give wages to them?"
"What a good idea!" Yuan Hao's eyes lit up, but then he hesitated: "I'm afraid that if this happens, the people who come to work will not be willing to work hard, so we need to send more people to supervise the work and use whips to urge "
Zhao Ran shook his head: "If you use whips to urge them to work, the hearts of these people will be farther and farther away from the Taoist sect. We definitely can't do this. What is our purpose? Let them go down the mountain, contact the outside world, and recognize the white horse. The benefit of the hospital is not to make them feel resentful."
"The abbot is right."
"But the problem you mentioned does exist. Let them go down to work in the mountains, but all of them are lazy. Such a trend cannot be promoted. Well, let's think about it again."
The two sat across from each other, thinking for a moment, and Yuan Hao suddenly said: "I just thought of an idea. Why don't we give five extra cents to each tribesman who comes down to work at the same time? This money will be given directly to each tribesman! Five hundred people , I only give out an extra three taels of silver wages every day, and even if it takes two months, it won¡¯t exceed two hundred taels. I wonder if the abbot thinks it¡¯s feasible?¡±
Zhao Ran immediately clapped his hands: "Lao Yuan, it's okay! Maybe this is a breakthrough for the three parts! Tsk, tsk, what a good idea!"
Yuan Hao smiled and said: "Maybe it's not that effective."
Zhao Ran said: "Whether the effect is good or not will only be known after it is implemented. Even if it does not achieve the effect we expected, it is still a beginning. Besides, maybe we can be more proactive and enhance this effect."
Yuan Hao nodded: "Lei Shan is currently focusing his whole body and mind on building roads. I will do this myself."
Zhao Ran objected: "No, you are the supervisor of Tangtang. If you go, it will be too shameful for them. Let Renduo Baozhong from Fangtang go. I think he is quite smart in doing things."
Yuan Hao understands. In terms of status, Baozhong is a party member and can be regarded as the leader of a small tribe. Let him go and talk on an equal footing. To take a step back, he is just a pyrotechnics layman in Fangtang. If anything goes wrong in the future, Baimayuan can correct it at any time, or even let him take the blame.
If Yuan Hao goes there in person, there will be no room for change in many things. It seems unfair to the loyal people of Xinxiang Dao Sect, but that is the reality.
After the matter was explained, Zhao Ran said to Yuan Hao: "I want to go to Qingcheng Mountain. The round trip only takes ten days, half a month at most. It's still the old method. If there is something important in Baima Court that requires me to come back, you can activate the flying talisman. After I receive the flying talisman, I will rush back as soon as possible."
Zhao Ran is a Taoist monk in the Songfan area. Just like Master Dazhuo and Xiaozhuo who were walking in Long'an Prefecture back then, he also left a one-way flying talisman to the Fangtang master of each county courtyard. This is the simplest version of the flying talisman. It can be inspired by the common sense, but it cannot be collected, let alone read. After being stimulated, Zhao Ran knew where he needed to respond and just rushed there.
Returning to the Zongsheng Hall with great joy, Zhao Ran first met with the teacher: "Teacher has been in retreat for a year, which really worries the disciples deeply!"
Jiang Tenghe stroked his beard and said: "Now that I have left seclusion, I have finally touched the edge of Lianxu. Haha, many of the doubts in my heart in the past have been answered. Now my Taoist heart has become rounded and my Taoism has greatly improved. I will have more time to teach in the future." How many of you are there?"
Zhao Ran smiled and said: "I am asking the teacher to teach me the "Shui Shi Dan Sutra"." He turned around and said to Yu Zhichuan: "Congratulations to my senior brother on the success of Jin Dan."
Yu Zhichuan scratched his head: "Same joy." He was thirty-six years old in early April. Just after his birthday, Wei Zhizhen was sent to the small world of the main peak. Within two months of seclusion, he got married smoothly. Golden elixir.
Before he entered the customs, Wei Zhizhen told him many experiences in forming pills and listed more than ten ways to deal with emergencies. As a result, he encountered none of the thrilling and difficult things listed by Wei Zhizhen, especially when it came to tempering the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, which was the most difficult point, such as unclear up and down directions, unclear timing in all directions, and confusion and confusion. The Taoist heart is dusty and does not exist for him.
It can almost be said that he got the golden elixir in a daze, and he lived up to the teacher's judgment of him - as long as he was alive, he could go on step by step, and finally saw the heavenly talisman floating towards him.
Looking left and right, all Louguan disciples including Luo Zhiqing and Qu Fenghe were gathered here.
"Third Senior Brother is also going?"
Luo Zhiqing nodded: "I made an appointment with Dongfang Jing."
Zhao Ran was speechless for a while: "He returned to Yuhuang Pavilion to get married. Is it appropriate for you, Third Senior Brother, to come to his house and start a fight?"
Luo Zhiqing was a little confused: "Isn't it appropriate?"
Wei Zhizhen explained from the side: "This time, I don't blame the third junior brother. It was Dongfang Jing who took the initiative to ask me to fight. He asked me first, but I didn't agree, so he asked the third junior brother again."
"Why do I want to ask you to fight?"
"I guess my marriage is unfortunate and I want to find someone to vent my anger on. I'm not afraid of fighting with him, but it's not appropriate to hurt him at his double cultivation ceremony."
"Senior Brother, are you so sure you can win Dongfang Jing?"
"He is in a confused state of mind right now. It is easy to defeat him. Even if the third junior brother goes up to compete with him, he is likely to win. So I recommend the third junior brother. If the third junior brother goes on the field, it doesn't matter if he loses. We will not lose our reputation in the building." Face, if he wins, there is no way he can be seriously injured, and everyone will look good by then."
"Elder brother, you are so clear in your calculations" Zhao Ran shook his head, said no more, got on the Qingyu Baoyi, and accompanied the master, along with Master Lin and the two Kun Dao Masters Cao and Zhuang, Flying towards Qingcheng Mountain.
