The second update is updated today, don’t forget to read the previous chapter first.

*********************************

Lin Fu and the others walked into the prison, but they were still as dead as yesterday. The prisoners were dejected and sat in the corner of the prison. The air was turbid, probably because the head of the team knew Lin Fu's preferences, and the stench in the prison was slightly lighter than yesterday, so there should have been a rough cleaning.

The prison guards brought the rice that had removed the rotten rice and the fish soup with enough oil and salt to a wooden barrel. The prisoners who had never tasted the oil and meat for many years smelled the fragrance, like hungry tigers who had been hungry for years, and suddenly rushed to the door of the prison to look around, with a ray of desire in their eyes.

Zhou Shide also knew how to please Lin Fu, and knocked on the wooden barrel with a copper spoon, and said loudly: "The new Sizhu Lin mercies you. Today, he sets a new rule that rotten rice will no longer be eaten. Add one spoon of oil per barrel of soup and half a spoon of salt. Today, the fish and meat in the soup are also mined by Master Lin, regardless of the river water and thorn cold. After the meal, let me wait for the yard to blow the air, then change to the clean Yi prison room, add a piece of straw felt every day to keep the cold. You are grateful and live in prison and atone for your sins. If you want to cause trouble or even escape from prison, you will be severely punished..."

The prisoners in this prison have little demand every day. As long as there is a little improvement, they all think it is a luxury. They didn't expect that the new prisoner had set such good new rules for them as soon as they came. Zhou Shide reminded them to be grateful. At that moment, several people knelt down in front of the prison door and shouted: "Thank you, sir..." In the closed prison, the emotions were very quickly transmitted. Several people knelt down to thank him. In the blink of an eye, all the prison doors were kneeling in front of the prison door. Even if some prisoners did not want to kneel down, they would kneel down under the pressure of following the crowd.

"Delivery food..." Lin Fu waved his hand and ordered the prison guards to prepare meals for the prisoners.

It is true that the prisoners in this prison are all "criminals", but there is a saying that the Dayue Dynasty used money to redeem the crime of being imprisoned. Most of the prisoners detained here are poor people who cannot afford to pay for their sins. He looked through the list of the prisoners last night. Among these prisoners, there were those who steal, those who rob, those who commit robbery, those who commit riots, and those who fight, and those who slandered the government and fight against the law. However, most of the prisoners were bankrupt farmers who were imprisoned on the charge of resisting rent. They could not afford to pay the land rent, so they naturally could not pay the atonement money. There were also people who borrowed usury loans and could not pay the money to pay the money for their creditors to eat in prison.

These prisoners were grateful for each other. When they saw good meals and fish soup, they were so hungry that they were desperate. The sound of spitting in the prison was so loud that they scared Lin Fu.

Lin Fu and the officials were standing in the corridor in the middle of the prison. The prisoners were in order, but after a meal, they felt that it was difficult to get into the prison. Today, they felt that it was far from enough. They swallowed it whole, and they were still hungry. They looked at the wooden barrels of soup and rice in the corridor, and they liked to add another bowl.

At this moment, the prisoner evacuated the empty wooden barrel, and the prisoners realized that the meal was over and looked forward to the next meal.

Lin Fu then said, "This fish is delicious. I went down the river to catch it today. The river water was a little cold at this time..." As soon as he said this, the prison door was kneeling down again. He waved his hand and did not let the prisoners make noises. He said loudly, "If you want to have fish for every meal, someone among you will be willing to go fishing for everyone in these cold weather! You recommend ten people to me. First, you should not be afraid of the cold river water, and second, don't cause trouble and try to escape from prison. Especially the second point, you all must remember that if someone wants to escape from prison when catching fish, you will not mention the matter of catching fish from now on, and all the new rules will be abolished. Referring fish to catch fish is related to everyone's vital interests. Remember not to recommend cheating people..."

"I, I, sir, have been fishing since I was a child, and I am not afraid of the cold river..."

"I, sir, sir, are not afraid of water cold..."

Although Lin Fu asked the prisoners to recommend it, the prisoners rushed to recommend themselves.

Whoever cared for years and had the opportunity to go out and breathe, would he care about the cold river? Besides, catching fish is a meal.

"Bang, bang, bang," the head of the prison squad knocked on the prison door with a ring stick to make the prisoner quieter. "Mr. Lin's words, you won't listen to them after more time, be honest!"

"First open the prison gate and put the prisoners in the yard. The selection of personnel will be carried out in the yard. They are asked to select twenty people. We will strictly select ten reliable candidates from them," Lin Fu ordered Changsun Geng, Zhou Shide and the head of the team. "You must hurry up and prepare..."

Changsun Geng watched the prisoners watch over the prisoners and went to the yard to let go. According to the old rules, prisoners were allowed to be placed in the yard on the fifth, fifteenth and twenty-fiveth day of the month every month, but no one would come to remind Lin Fu of this old rules. Moreover, Lin Fu clearly stated in the morning that he would implement his new rules. As long as they did not touch the interests of their officials and soldiers, how could they get into the bad habit of their new boss? As for the deficit that the new rules would form, it was also a headache for the new boss.

Changsun Geng had nothing else, so he followed Lin Fu to the yard to stare at the prisoners who recommended the fishing personnel. This is also a prevention of prison heads and prison bullies in tandem. After all, being able to leave the prison room for breathing is a very rare opportunity for those who are detained for years. It can be said to be a great benefit. Sometimes people would rather engage in hard labor than being locked up in a small cell for many years.

Zhou Shide was responsible for the arrangement of the Yi-character prison. In fact, there were five internal and external prisons, with more than 200 prisoners and more than 200 prisoners. It was easy to get in and replace prisons. However, no one had ever thought of such a simple thing. He only let the A-character prison use for nearly ten years. The hygiene situation became extremely bad, full of mold, and prisoners were easily sick when locked up in it.

The prisoners were not experiencing the election. They were excited to go to the yard to let go, and they were also messy. Fortunately, there were many martial soldiers pressing against each other, and the noisy was inevitable. However, everything was under control. Lin Fu stood in the yard and stared at him. No one was afraid of being bold and rash at this time. After nearly two hours, twenty people were selected here. Zhou Shide's side was also ready to take charge of the prisoners and began to change the prison rooms.

Lin Fu asked the team leader to lock the twenty people elected in two prison rooms alone, and sent two prisoners to move in together to prevent these people from liaison before determining the final candidate.

Dinner started in the prison. Lin Fu asked Changsun Geng to pick out the roster of the twenty people and pulled Changsun Geng, Zhou Shide and five prison team leaders to go to the front yard of the prison hall to discuss the candidates for fishing.

Although Changsun Geng, Zhou Shide and others felt that it was risky to release prisoners to the riverside to catch fish, they felt that Lin Fu was very cautious in selecting people. Besides, Lin Fu pulled them to discuss together and felt that they were valued. They thought that it was easy to control only ten people released. They might as well give it a try. They were also very enthusiastic to help Lin Fu choose people, and consider choosing a safe hand from many aspects such as the crime of being imprisoned, their performance after being imprisoned, etc.

The next day, Lin Fu still went to the riverside to catch fish in person. Changsun Geng and Zhou Shide no longer looked at each other, and they also wanted to come over and attack Lin Fu. They were both Confucian scholars and could not bear the cold river water. They stood in the water for a while, but they couldn't stand it. They even went ashore to help Lin Fu carry the basket and get the boots. The military soldiers guarding the prison came to help. Lin Fu stopped him: "Your duty is to protect the prison and catch fish, and the matter of catching fish is not related to you..." They only let two strong team leaders help him catch fish in shallow water.

Changsun Geng felt that this new boss was fundamentally different from his ex-Guilu, and he felt sorry for Lin Fu that he did not have the determination to completely rectify the prison.

After catching the fish, Lin Fu called the twenty selected prisoners to the front hall one by one according to the list for a meeting. Finally, he selected ten people who were in prison for fighting against rent and debt evasion. The prison term was about to expire. He had always performed well in prison and was still healthy.

In the afternoon, Lin Fu asked the prisoners to take all the ten prisoners to the front hall where he was acting for official duties.

The cold winter has not passed yet, and these prisoners are wearing thin prison clothes. They want to be more eye-catching in Lin Fu, but their years of prison life have made them tremble, and they are afraid that they will become more and more regular. The subtle movements and the expression on their faces make them look at a loss and panic.

Lin Fu sat behind the desk and looked at the ten people silently for a while before saying, "Most of you are still in prison for three or five months. I trust you very much now, so don't let my trust down. First of all, you must understand that those who dare to escape from prison will shoot and kill them... You will help me fish with all your heart, and I will not treat you badly. The weather is cold and the earth is cold. Later, I will give you another set of cold clothes for each of you. Before and after going into the water to catch fish every day, there are also ginger soup and sugar water to drink to protect the cold. If your body really can't withstand the cold water, you

You must tell me truthfully, don’t hold on. I will arrange for you to do other errands in the prison. In addition, if you go into the water to catch fish, I will charge each of you five copper coins a day, and when you are released from prison, you will be given all of them to you. If you hear someone in the prison wants to cause trouble, you can come and tell me. I don’t care about the past, but I will tell me what happens in the future. In this prison, I am the king of heaven. I can’t control the matter yet. Do you understand?”

Changsun Geng, Zhou Shide and others were secretly shocked when they heard it next to them. Lin Fu didn't believe them at all. He chose these ten people to fish, and they did want to fish, but they also had the idea of ​​using prisoners to control prisoners. To put it bluntly, the ten prisoners selected had greater privileges than ordinary prisoners. They wanted to suppress some things in prison in the future and deceived this new boss, but they were afraid that it would be more difficult than before, but they could not express any objection.

"Listen...Listen...I understand." The prisoners replied timidly and chaoticly. Unexpectedly, besides fishing, there are so many benefits. If you work for five copper coins a day, it is indeed very rare. But they are in prison. Do you dare to ask for more? Besides, you don't have to worry about food, drink, and clothes. You will have to be very happy with your life before entering prison.

This good thing happened too suddenly, and the prisoners were surprised and hesitant.

"The sound is louder, do you understand?" Lin Fu asked loudly again.

"I understand..." The ten prisoners' voices were a little strong, and they were still timid and panic.

Lin Fu waved his hand and ordered Changsun Geng to follow the team, "Add a jacket for each of them, and prepare a clean room for the prison cell for them, with a spacious one, a piece of grass felt, and a double supply of food and soup. In the future, when fishing, I will be there to supervise myself, and then draw twenty archers to supervise the site!"
