Chapter 79 0075Daming Village(2/2)
Zhu Ming took up his pen and thought for a long time, then slowly and with amusement, he wrote a few big characters: Daming Village Household Registration and Field Register.
One after another, the prisoners came to report their family information, including how many acres of land they had.
After working for a long time, a man came over with his head lowered.
Ju Ming asked: "Name."
"Li Wangfu." Byford said hoarsely.
Ju Ming put down his brush: "Why don't you dare to look at me? Lift your head!"
Byford was so frightened that he turned around and ran away, but was immediately forked back by the archer next to him.
Ju Ming glanced at it and said expressionlessly: "Drag it down and chop it!"
It was not until evening that the household registration was finally compiled. Ju Ming, who had not slept since last night, just wanted to lie in bed and rest.
Excluding those killed by officers and soldiers and those who were escorted to the county government, there were only 694 people left in Ju Ming's territory. Among them, 251 were adult men, 268 were adult women, and 175 were children under 15 years old.
The population is a bit small!
Last night, it was all in vain. Not to mention the officers and soldiers taking action, some of the bandits trampled on each other and died.
More people will be attracted in the future.
Fortunately, there are not many elderly people, and the ratio of young men to women is very high.
…
At the foot of the mountain.
The two deputy section chiefs were pretending to sleep and woke up once at noon.
As soon as they spoke a few words, the archers forced them to drink wine and didn't even give them food. If they didn't pretend to be asleep, they were afraid they would drink themselves to death!
"That man surnamed Zhu is very ambitious. He is young but very courageous. He wants to occupy Heifeng Village by himself!" Cao Shoufen said angrily.
"Please keep your voice down," Lu Shoufen said, "How much better is Xiangzhi County? Xiangzhi County has taken away all the goods in Xiabai Village. From what I see, the person surnamed Zhu, Xiangzhi County, and that
Except for Mr. Bai, the three of them have already discussed it. Each of us will get a share, and everyone will make a profit. It’s just the two of us who will suffer haha.”
Cao Shoufen suppressed his anger and said: "We came to take charge of the army's money and food, but we can only get out and not get in. We didn't get even half a penny. We drank a lot of wine!"
The two of them became increasingly angry as they talked.
Suddenly there were footsteps outside, and they were so frightened that they quickly shut up.
Zhu Ming led the two archers in, smiled and said with his hands, "Two gentlemen, I am busy with military affairs, so I really don't take good care of them. Fortunately, they have been sorted out. Here are the household registration and field registration here."
Archers came forward with torches to help them light up.
The two deputy section chiefs opened it and saw that it was full of parts and components.
Heifengzhai and surrounding areas will be renamed Daming Village from now on.
There are a total population of 184 people, with 105 acres and 3 cents of tea mountain, 65 acres and 2 cents of middle fields, and 401 acres and 4 cents of lower fields. Due to the night attack and the burning of the bandit's stronghold, most of the property has been burned, leaving only 78 strings and 401 coins of iron money.
Who the hell believes this?
It’s like fooling the government into thinking they are fools!
Ju Ming smiled and said, "I am seriously injured and will have to recuperate for a few months. Chen and Zhang will take the archers and civilians back home."
Cao Shoufen couldn't help but complain: "Since Zhu Dutou was seriously injured, he was able to go down the mountain himself. He is really a strange person in the world."
Zhu Ming didn't waste any time and asked the archer to bring in a basket: "Here are thirty strings of coins. I picked them up when I went down the mountain. Why don't you borrow flowers and offer them to the Buddha?"
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, not to mention that one person can divide it fifteen times, which is already considered generous.
Lu Shoufen quickly said: "I saw with my own eyes that Zhu Du was injured on the head, and the injury was very serious. It is true that he will not be able to return to the county government office to recover!"
"Yes, yes, Zhu Du's head is indeed injured." Cao Shoufen continued.
