The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan
Chapter 753
Du Yan gently patted the back of his son's hand.
"I know my own body. If I could get well just by eating pears, the imperial physician would have asked me to do this." Du Yan said, "This disease cannot be cured by medicine."
"This time I left Chang'an City to inspect the prefectures and counties in Guannei. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back after this trip."
"Father..." Du Jingtong's eyes were filled with deep worry.
"Before you leave, the Du family must help Keming deal with this matter. Even if I leave Chang'an City, you must continue to do this well. In the future, if you encounter any indecisive things, ask Keming more." Du Yan reminded: "If your father leaves during the inspection of Guannei, don't be sad. This is a good thing."
"It's better than dying at home."
"No..." Du Jingtong murmured, tears in his eyes.
"Remember, if I die on the way, it means I died for the court, and if I die at home, it's just an ordinary death of illness, do you understand?" Du Yan looked at his son seriously: "If I die on the way, I can also leave a future for you, this is an opportunity!
Even if I don't leave Chang'an, I will die because of my father's current physical condition."
"After I die, you will be the pillar of the family, inherit the title and be granted an official position. The court will not make things difficult for you for the sake of my father. You have to stand on my shoulders, see further, go further, and live up to my father's support for you."
"Inspecting the interior of the pass, this is a opportunity." Du Yan said: "So, don't be sad for your father. The Du family is now facing a very critical moment. You must remember that the Du family can no longer fight. You must learn from Shan Bin's mind."
"The world in the future will be very different from before, and the situation will be very different." Du Yan said: "Our Majesty is very young and has made great achievements. I am afraid that the old family will not be able to gain an advantage under our Majesty."
"Now is not the time when anyone can turn the table over."
The carriage drove slowly, accompanied by the sound of the street-cleaning drum, and returned to Du Yan's home.
There was a big movement in Chang'an City. Early in the morning, a recruitment notice from the Artisan Supervisor was posted on the bulletin board of Chang'an City.
There were also knights who rode fast and sent it to various counties near Chang'an to inform the village elders.
Most of the people were illiterate, and the clerks guarding the bulletin board read the words on the notice and explained it to the people.
"A stadium will be built in Chang'an City, mainly for polo matches. After the stadium is completed and put into use, the people can also pay for tickets and go in to watch the polo matches."
"The cheapest ticket only costs one penny."
"In addition, the construction of the stadium requires a large number of craftsmen. This time, the emperor sympathizes with the people who have suffered from the locust plague and have a hard life. He will no longer levy corvée, but will recruit craftsmen in the form of employment. Craftsmen will be paid every day when they apply for work, and the wages will be paid every ten days."
After hearing the explanation of the clerk, people around the notice board in Chang'an City talked about it.
"The court wants the people to work, but it's not conscription, but hiring people to work and paying them? There is such a good thing?"
"The emperor and your majesty, this is sympathy for us who have suffered from the locust plague and have a hard life."
"Yes, if we go to work, earn money, take it home and buy food, how great it is."
"That's right, as long as we are diligent, although this year is not good, but with the kindness of the emperor and your majesty, we can get through it anyway."
"The nobles in the palace have thought a lot about us. Since the locust plague, the court has taken many measures. Officials have taken the lead and led people to kill locusts, just to kill locusts and protect food, and they are not afraid of even heaven's punishment."
"Your majesty is a good emperor."
"Then I will sign up for work, I have plenty of strength."
"Me too, me too!"
The craftsman supervisor had already set up a stall, and the officials had also prepared pens and ink, paper, silk, cloth and bamboo slips.
They also made bamboo cards to be issued to the craftsmen.
When the time comes, they will come to the construction site to work with the cards, and they will also settle their wages with the cards after the work is done.
When people come, they will record the registration and distribute the cards, and all these must be recorded.
In order to deal with the large number of craftsmen who will register in the future, the Craftsman Supervisor even went to the Ministry of Personnel and asked the Ministry of Personnel for many people to come and help.
Anyway, there are many people waiting for the appointment of officials in the Ministry of Personnel, so they can just be pulled to work first. If they do a good job, maybe the opportunity will come?
This is what the Yan brothers told their colleagues in the Craftsman Supervisor to paint a pie for them.
As Yan Lide said, there are many sons of noble families in the Craftsman Supervisor.Brother, originally, entering the Craftsmanship Supervisor was nothing more than a title and an idle position.
But when this project started, all these idle children were mobilized.
As soon as the drawings were hung on the wall, the officials of the Craftsmanship Supervisor began to talk endlessly about how magnificent this project was, how much fun it would be after the completion of the construction, and how exciting it would be to hold the Chang'an Cup Polo Match.
How could these idle children of noble families not be confused after listening to it?
Wasn't their interest mobilized one by one?
Therefore, they worked harder and harder. Even those who didn't work in the past would now come to work because of their interest.
After they were assigned and arranged properly, they could perform exceptionally well in their positions.
At the same time, these children of noble families also received an important message.
Chang'an Cup!
Polo match!
Fight for the final victory!
Win the championship! There is a trophy!
Honor! Reward! The attention of all!!!
Good, good, good.
These noble families also quickly gathered together to prepare for the upcoming Chang'an Cup.
"Now that a large number of craftsmen have been recruited to build the venue, this news must be true.
Moreover, it was the news that the officials of the Craftsmen's Office got from the palace.
This venue was not built by the order of your majesty, but by the order of the emperor of Da'an Palace himself. Even the Chang'an Cup is also under the responsibility of the emperor."
"Hiss, if this news is true, then this Chang'an Cup is really exciting."
"It must be true. If it is not true, why make such a big fuss, build such a large venue, and spend so much money?
Moreover, I have also seen the drawings hanging in the yamen of the Craftsmen's Office with my own eyes. The scale and design are absolutely amazing. I asked you to come here today, not for the venue, but for the Chang'an Cup polo match.
We are all good at playing polo. How about it? Do you want to try it?"
