Looking at the bustling crowds around, all of them came from the Iron Prison, everyone was full of red faces. Quan Erlang drank a glass of wine, patted the cup on the table, and said angrily: "Why am I so desperate! I am just a slim person, and I am also sent to Jingxiying Field, why am I sent to farm and not to go to the Iron Prison! Look at you, you will have a new house to live in, money and food, and holidays to have fun. How dare you think of such a good day! If there is such a good day, I will stay there too, why not leave without clarity!"

Geng Xin, who was sitting opposite, said, "Erlang, don't just see good things. We are good at this day, but we have strict requirements. We should not make any mistakes when doing work. If we make a mistake, we will scold you at the least, and fine you at the worst, and we may be kicked out."

Quan Erlang said disapprovingly: "This is a common thing, what's the matter! When we used to pull the fiber, it was not the same! What's the matter with each other for whom and who doesn't work hard, and quarrel every day!"

Chai Fu said: "How can we be the same? When we wait, we set the ropes on our body, and we just need to work hard. Now we are in the place where we do things, we can go wherever we can touch wherever we can, and we can't do anything wrong. We who do things have to learn to recognize words every day. If we learn slowly than others, our status, money and food will be compared by others. Your temperament will be even more unbearable."

Quan Erlang was stunned: "If you do your best, you have to learn to recognize words? How could the Iron Supervisor do such an unreasonable thing?"

Geng Xin sighed: "It's not just about recognizing words, but you have to learn everything. We have been in the Iron Supervision for half a month. At first, we learned to recognize words for one hour a day, taking the exam every three days and competing every five days, and recording all the good or bad things. In recent days, I heard that the stove is going to be built and you have to learn other things. You are filling coal and burning fire, so you have to learn how to fill coal and burn fire-"

After hearing this, Quan Erlang laughed "sneer": "It's funny, what should I learn when I burn the fire!"

Chai Fu said: "Don't you learn how to burn fire? What kind of coal you want to learn? How much is filling at a time? How many pounds can you estimate when you come out of the pile of coal. You also need to look at the color of the fire in the furnace, and know whether the fire is strong or not, and when will it be added. Let me tell you that filling coal and burning fire is the easiest thing, and you have to learn more about other things. When doing things in the iron supervisor, you don't have as much strength as before, so you have to use it here!"

Speaking of this, Chai Fu pointed to his head.

Quan Erlang was stunned for a moment. He couldn't think of what Chai Fu said had anything to do with burning fire, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Geng Xin said again: "From learning to learn how to do things, you have to get the test of everything. If you fail the test, there will be many difficulties. People in the Iron Supervisor are divided into grades. Only when you come in, you will know that those who have not passed the test for one time are just trials. They are called borrowing names. Only by passing the test of literacy and passing the test of the industry you do can you really have a job, which is called a regular name."

Quan Erlang was curious and asked, "What's the difference?"

"The difference is so big! Only by rectifying the name can you be truly qualified to do things, and those who borrow the name can only take action. Not only are the money and grains that are issued, the ones who correct the name are one level higher than those who borrow the name, there are also various rewards, daily subsidies, and all the names are not qualified to borrow the name. This is much different!"

This is actually the internship system. Only after training can one truly take up the job. The treatment of the Iron Supervisor is set so high that it is impossible to enjoy it when transferred. All boaters can only be considered formal employees of the Iron Supervisor if they pass the assessment, otherwise they are just temporary workers. Low wages are one aspect, but more importantly, they cannot enjoy the treatment of the Iron Supervisor and have no chance of promotion. It is easy to become a regular employee. If you study actively, you can just pass the exam.

Geng Xin and Chai Fu were friends Quan Erlang had met in the Xiangjun before. They had a good life and were assigned to the Iron Prison. These days, the Iron Prison was delicious and delicious, and the living conditions made the boatmen who came here happy. But what was annoying was that in addition to building houses and furnaces for later people every day, they also had to study every day. Learning was not counting, and they often took exams and kept diverting people. Those who had good brains quickly learned to recognize words and then learned specific industry knowledge, and their grades were gradually improved. In half a month, the top ones in the soldiers and received twice the money and food from others. With this process, the original organizational form of the Xiangjun was disrupted, and all the following were completely mastered by officials sent to them.

Geng Xin and Chai Fu both were inferior to each other and were more than the lower ones, and were of medium level. Both of them recognized some words and were now learning the professional knowledge of the work they would do in the future. Chai Fu's drawing was simple, so he chose a job that burned charcoal, mainly filling coal, distinguishing the coal types every day, observing the flames, making his head as big as a bucket. Geng Xin casts steel ingots, and learned even more.

Seeing the two of them being bothered, Quan Erlang said, "You don't have to be anxious. What's the point of learning slower? The Iron Supervisor will not break you."

"How do you know that you don't have a robbery?" Geng Xin shook his head repeatedly. "If you just learn slowly, it's really nothing. You just need to get less money and food, and you have no future. But if you make mistakes frequently, especially those who are casual and disobedient, it's different. Especially those who like to make trouble, such as gathering people to gambling, extorting money, fighting, and leaving immediately!"

Speaking of this, Geng Xin pointed to the few people who were not far away from the ferry and carrying a baggage and said, "Did you see that? Those were ordered to leave the money prison because of gambling. Another few days ago, because they were fighting for bones in the broth, several people were sent away."

Quan Erlang looked at the people for a while, but didn't recognize them. He asked in a low voice: "Where are these people going to leave the Iron Supervisor?"

Geng Xin said: "Of course, I went to the village where the farmland farms in Tangzhou to open up land and farm. The vacancy they left would be compensated from the homes of the people who came from the front. I read the list and said that it was eighteen to twenty-five years old, strong and smart, and the village should be protected without bad character."

After hearing this, Quan Erlang stopped talking. With his own temperament, even if he entered the Iron Supervisor, he was probably the first group to be driven away. In fact, there was another thing Geng Xin didn't say, that was, there was no tattoo on his body and his wealth was innocent. Quan Erlang's outfit was difficult to stay in the Iron Supervisor.

Giving generous conditions certainly requires higher requirements. Iron Supervisor is not a place for retirement. From the beginning, Du Zhongxiao did not mean to give these people a job. Whether they can keep food and clothing depends on their own. The requirements are simple and clear, and if they do it, they stay and leave if they cannot do it. It is very simple. For people to come and leave, grassroots officials and officials have no power. If they violate the law and are arrested, they will leave immediately. There is no mercy to talk about. Only entering and leaving, the imperial guards and the wing army have been taught a lesson. If they are not done well, they are not satisfied with their jobs, they are not satisfied with money and food, and they are not able to protect their lives.

Quan Erlang sighed: "Oh, it seems that nothing is easy in the world. Without giving up wealth, how can we live a good life!"

Qian Yuanwai's furnace had already started to smelter iron. Quan Erlang was busy and helped do a lot of things and some rewards. However, the process of opening the furnace was not satisfactory. Qian Yuanwai is now in debt and is far from being kind when he came. Quan Erlang was determined to leave. Gao Ji'an's illness has been cured, and now he is helping to do something and make some money. The two discussed that in a few months, he would save some wealth and go to Kaifeng Mansion. It would be meaningless to stay there.

After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Geng Xin asked, "Erlang, I heard that you are helping a staff member to do things. How have you been recently?"

Quan Erlang said: "Don't mention it. The official is a stockholder and cannot rely on it for a long time. A few months ago, the man looked at the land he had chosen and planted seeds, saying that it was his own ancestral land and wanted to extort money. The yamen was generous and recognized that the land was his, but he had to pay for decades of taxes. The land here is vast and sparsely populated, and the land is not worth the money, so how can it be worth decades of taxes? The man paid hundreds of stagnant coins for nothing, and since then he became stingy. I helped him choose the land and mine and build a smelting furnace, but it didn't cost much."

Chai Fu said: "Erlang, this is not a solution for you. You always have to find a way to settle down."

Quan Erlang said: "I have already made plans. After a few days, save some money and go to Kaifeng Prefecture to find a living. I have a friend who has some ways in Kaifeng Prefecture. If everything goes well, wealth will not be difficult!"

Seeing Quan Erlang looking full of confidence, Geng Xin said: "Erlang, we are all ordinary people. In the past, we were suffering from being fed and we were very rare as long as we were full and we were well-dressed. We cannot expect to reach the sky in one step and be rich and noble."

Quan Erlang raised his face and said, "I don't believe it! Are those kings, princes, generals, high-ranking officials and famous officials all brought it from their destiny? It was just a coincidence, they happened! If I can catch it, I can still be boundlessly rich and honored!"

Geng Xin and Chai Fu looked at each other, shook their heads secretly, and stopped persuading them. Quan Erlang is such a person. He has been fond of labor since he was a child, and he always lamented that his fate was unfair. He pretended not to do anything attentively, but only thought about the opportunity to reach the sky.

The money allocated within a few days was arrived. The Iron and Steel Supervisor specially paid half a month's salary in advance, allowing the first group of people to come out to relax and buy some daily necessities. After half a month of coming, in addition to working, they also had to study every day, and they felt uncomfortable.

With the Li River as the boundary, there are many shops gathered at the ferry entrance on the north bank, which is very lively. Three thousand families, not to mention Ye County, even Ruzhou City does not have this population size. Many people have seen business opportunities, and people from several nearby states come here to do business. If it weren't for the ban on buying industries under the rule, Du Zhongxiao's family would still want to open a store here. Unfortunately, in the past half month, the people with the most consumption capacity have been working in the Iron Supervisory Commission, and only women and children come to visit the shops all the time. Finally, I waited today. This area was extremely lively and unknowingly became a market.
