Chapter 422: Generous Rewards (Please vote and subscribe)

After Shu Da and Da Shu left, Luo Chong quickly issued new orders to You Ye and his party. The teaching building project in Hanyang City has been fully completed and is undergoing final decoration work. The wood processing plant in charge of Lin Tong is also producing a large number of tables, chairs and benches every day. The foundation of the new office building project is being laid, and You Fu's caravan is also on the way back.

Under such full operation, the Han tribe held its first Labor Day celebration. This was the first time such a large collective activity was held except for the grand sacrifice at the beginning of the year. Most of the residents of the new city also saw such a large scene for the first time. In addition, they heard that there would be an evaluation of model workers. Once selected, there would be rewards issued by the tribe. Many people didn't know what the rewards were. Unable to bear the curiosity in their hearts, almost everyone came to watch. After all, this was related to their future lives.

In the middle of August, all the rice had been harvested, and the 100 acres of corn fields had been planted. The Labor Day celebration that had been prepared for more than a week also began.

Early in the morning, after breakfast, the tribesmen came to the square in the city early to gather. They looked at the northernmost end of the square, where the temporary high platform made of wooden planks was built. It was said that the leader would present prizes to the selected model workers there in a while, and most importantly, they didn't have to work today.

After the awards were presented, some games and competitions would be held in the square. Participants would get some small rewards after winning the games. The tribesmen who learned the seniority ranking could also receive a football, two rabbits, or two black chickens. It was said that they were all sent back from Hanyang City in the past ten days. The tribesmen were very excited to hear the news released in advance. Even the laborers who had not yet joined the Han tribe were allowed to join in the fun today, and free food was distributed.

Soon, more and more tribesmen gathered, and the entire platform was dark. Seeing that almost everyone was there, Luo Chong led a group of tribe leaders to the platform to the sound of gongs and drums. When they saw the young man with a golden hair crown, everyone couldn't help but cheer. The scene was no less impressive than a modern singer's concert.

Luo Chong pressed his hand down, and the gongs and drums behind him stopped. Then, the silence on the platform spread like ripples. The huge square soon became quiet. Luo Chong knew that it was all done by the shills who were arranged in advance in the crowd. The gongs and drums were used as a signal. Once the drums stopped, they would tell the people around them that the leader was going to speak, and everyone should stop talking and listen quietly.

"Fellow tribesmen of the Han Dynasty, people, you have just joined the Han tribe not long ago, but you have built this city with your own efforts, so that every tribe member can live in a solid house and no longer have to endure the cold in winter. You have cultivated food with your own hard work. Even if you no longer hunt or go out to gather, you can still live a life without hunger.

All of this is the conditions provided by the Han tribe for you, but without the hard work of each of you, it would be impossible to achieve such results. Today's festival celebration is to celebrate the harvest brought by each of your labor. Cheer for your own hard work, my tribesmen." Luo Chong stood on the high platform and shouted loudly to the people below.

"Long live the chief, long live the Han Dynasty, long live the chief, long live the Han Dynasty." As Luo Chong waved his hand at the end, the tortoise lurking in the crowd immediately began to take the lead in shouting slogans, which soon led to the atmosphere of the entire square. Everyone's cheers were higher and higher, and the shouts of tens of thousands of people even startled the birds within a radius of one kilometer.

After the tribesmen shouted for a while, Luo Chong pressed his hands again, and the big tree behind him that gave orders also waved its flag. The crowd quieted down again under the guidance of Tuoer.

"Tribesmen, people, your hard work deserves everyone's recognition and is very worthy of praise. This is your honor. Every hard-working tribesman should win everyone's respect and should be encouraged by the tribe.

Today, we will select a model worker from each clan, and I will personally present them with the awards they have won.

So what is a model worker? It is the person among you who works the hardest, does the best, and makes the greatest contribution to the Han tribe. They are all worthy of our learning. Only by working harder like them can our lives be better under the leadership of the Han tribe. I hope that you can all be like these model workers and reap your own honors and rewards in the future.

Okay, then, let the temporary city lord Lin Shu announce the winners of the first selection of model workers and their labor deeds. Everyone applaud and welcome them. "After Luo Chong finished his speech, he took the lead in clapping his hands, and then hurried down to drink water.

With the help of the child who was arranged in advance, there was another round of fierce applause from the audience. Soon, Da Shu came to the front of the stage with a list written on a white paper and a stack of speech manuscripts.

He pressed his hands to the audience and read the manuscripts.

"For this celebration, the first model worker we selected is Xue Lei, who is responsible for residential construction.

Xue Lei is the leader of a house-building team. In the few short months since he joined the Han tribe, he has been very attentive to learning house-building techniques from the old tribesmen. He is the first among the new tribesmen to learn how to measure dimensions and lay out lines to find horizontal and vertical lines.

After he led the new team alone, he not only finished his part first every day, but also took the initiative to help those tribesmen who had not learned it, and patiently taught the techniques to everyone in the team.

Under his leadership, his housing construction team completed the task the fastest. A five-room house could be built in as little as five days. During the construction of the entire new city, his team alone completed the construction of 30 houses, solving the housing problems of more than 300 new tribesmen.

Through the investigations in recent days, Xue Lei's labor deeds have been unanimously praised by everyone. After discussion and affirmation by the tribe leaders, he is now awarded the title of Han tribe labor model by the leader himself, and is respected by all tribesmen.

In addition, there are rewards of an early generation loom, a rice mortar, a stone mill, 20 meters of white, blue and black linen, six antelope skins, two piglets, and two sheep. The above rewards are all privately owned, and the tribe does not interfere with the handling method.

"Everyone applaud and welcome our model worker Xue Lei to the stage to receive the award," Dashu looked at the long speech in his hand and shouted to the audience.

When the tribesmen heard that the model worker actually received such a generous reward, and that it was given to an individual to keep privately, and the tribe didn't care how you used it, they all showed envy.
