With this food, no wonder I'm not hungry.
In future generations we will only feed chickens, ducks and pigs, which is worse than pig food. .
In this era, they can only eat enough, but I can’t compliment anything else. I really don’t know how they eat.
He turned sideways and said to the clerk who brought the records.
"Write down what you eat, go back and count it, replace it with rice and noodles, and make sure you are full and well-fed at least one meal."
"Yes, sir."
Seeing Zheng Xiong pointing out the country, waving his hands and making every move to improve his own life, Chen Er and others who followed him were confused.
Watching Zheng Xiong carefully, thinking about Zheng Xiong's purpose.
Could it be that he is the new Shangguan?
It can't be! Birds of a feather.
After several changes, no one has changed his residence or food.
It’s good to be full.
Zheng Xiong was in high spirits.
Jiaofang Si made money every day, and during this period, he saved a lot of money.
Although the growth rate has begun to weaken, it is still filling Zheng Xiong's wallet.
I'm worried that I can't find a place to flower it!
What a coincidence!
How much can a corvee be paid? For one hundred thousand people, it is less than one hundred thousand guan a month.
Counting the entire country, citizens from 30 prefectures and more than 180 counties fired bricks for the Nanjing city wall.
Calculated as a whole, millions of people will definitely not be able to afford it.
But these people in Nanjing can still afford it.
Including food and accommodation, it was still very early.
So Zheng Xiong didn't panic at all.
Gradually reaching the end, Zheng Xiong turned around and forgot about it. He seemed to have discovered something, and turned to ask Chen Er and the others.
"We've been walking for a long time, but why haven't we seen a toilet?"
No matter what Zheng Xiong said before was true or false, with such a good person, naturally a few people would not dare to neglect him.
Hearing Zheng Xiong's question, he quickly answered.
"Yes, it's one mile ahead."
Walking slowly forward, far away from the residence, I finally saw the toilet.
It occupies a large area, and from a distance, it looks like a large thatched house.
As I got closer, a stench hit my face.
Resisting the discomfort in his stomach, Zheng Xiong opened the straw curtain and looked inside.
The ground is covered with a layer of wooden boards, and there is a hollow space every one or two steps.
Looking down, it was dark with a little light.
After walking inside, Zheng Xiong stumbled and almost fell to the ground before taking two steps.
Fortunately, a few people behind him held him up, so he didn't fall.
With lingering fear in his heart, Zheng Xiong quickly stepped out of this big pit.
Zheng Xiong had seen the toilet, and the humble Zheng Xiong had also used it.
But such a large latrine is really an eye-opener.
The ancients were still very particular about hygiene.
Not to the point of defecating anywhere.
But Zheng Xiong is really indifferent to such a pit now.
The sanitary conditions are also a bit poor.
"Write this down and revise it another day."
Turning around from the pit, Zheng Xiong led a few people back to the construction site.
On the construction site, a man who looked like a manager was looking around, as if looking for something.
When he saw Chen Er, he immediately came forward.
However, Zheng Xiong ahead cannot be ignored.
The steward who came in a hurry quickly braked and saluted Zheng Xiong.
"Greetings, my lord."
"Well, I took these people away for a while and now I'll leave them to you."
"Yes, may I ask your name?"
"Hmm~"
The corner of his eyes squinted, and his voice raised twice.
As if he was about to get angry.
The steward's body trembled with fright.
Zheng Xiong was happy in his heart.
This feeling of appearing holy in front of others, or in other words
The feeling of showing off is quite beautiful.
"I might as well tell you that I won't change my name when I'm in office, and I won't change my surname when I sit down."
"The current governor of Yingtian Mansion, who also serves as the head of the Jiaofang Department and Huimin Pharmacy, is the Medical Marquis Zheng Xiong."
"What, what's your problem?"
It was great. After finishing the call, Zheng Xiong was filled with joy.
But his expression was a bit serious.
The steward's legs trembled as he listened, until the word "Yi Hou" came out, and he knelt down with a plop.
The same goes for Chen Er and others. After following him for so long, they turned out to be the famous Zheng Xiong.
It was an existence that was beyond our reach. I didn’t expect to see a living person like this.
"Greetings to the Marquis. I was ignorant and bumped into the Marquis. Please forgive me."
Chen Er and others also lowered their heads, not daring to look at Zheng Xiong.
The thinking of the time traveler cannot be judged by common sense.
Zheng Xiong just said calmly when he heard this.
"Get up!"
The manager was still frightened and stood up tremblingly, ready to listen to Zheng Xiong's admonishment.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Xiong walked away directly, leaving only a few people behind.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, the manager felt like he was still recovering from the disaster.
Chen Er and others stood up, and just then the person in charge came to their senses and asked quickly.
"Why did the Marquis take you there? Did you say anything?"
"No, I took the Marquis to our residence. We didn't say anything. Instead, the Marquis said that he would improve our residence, food, and toilets, but nothing else."
"oh."
As if he had taken a reassurance, the manager suddenly felt better and his legs no longer twitched.
He whispered to several people mysteriously.
"You are lucky. When the Marquis comes here, he will definitely not ask about you for no reason."
"I heard that the construction of the city wall was handed over to the First Construction, and the first construction was carried out by the Marquis."
"Not to mention that the treatment will be the same as that of Yi Jian, at least the Marquis will not treat me badly. Now that I have said it, I can basically be sure."
"So! You guys are really lucky."
"This is good news, great news."
Along with Yourong, several people laughed, not knowing what they were thinking of.
Back at the government office, Tieniu had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Zheng Xiong coming back, he quickly followed him.
Sit down in your seat.
After taking a sip of tea, Zheng Xiong asked Tieniu.
"What's the matter?"
"Small~"
"After all, he is an official, so he can change his title. There is no need to call him something petty."
A little scared, a little unable to turn around, but Tieniu spoke sincerely.
"In front of the Marquis, how can a young person be called an official? A small person will always be a small person and dare not go beyond it."
Not to mention anything else, just the attitude is very good.
Zheng Xiong's tone also became much softer.
"It's up to you, tell me whatever you want!"
"Yes, it's about the construction of the city wall. I don't know anything about it. I don't know how to take over it. I hope the Marquis can give me some advice."
After drinking the tea in one breath, Zheng Xiong wiped the water stains on the corners of his mouth and gave his answer.
"The handover with the Ministry of Industry has been completed and everything is on track."
"But these corvees are the same as you, and they get paid every day, which is about the same as you."
"Next, I will allocate funds to you. You can build a residence for me on the city wall. You and those who don't have a place to live can live there."
"The house must be big, bright, and spacious enough. Don't save me money."
"The same goes for meals. Eat before going to work every day. I will arrange for someone to do this, so you don't have to worry about it."
"There is also a toilet problem. Try to fix it as much as possible, and fix it as close as possible. It is too far over there. If you are anxious, you may have to pee in your crotch."
As expected of the Marquis, the Marquis made arrangements before he even had a clue.
Tieniu fell to the ground in admiration.
