Chapter 294 Human Resources Market (Please vote and subscribe)
The leader was overjoyed when he heard this. He had originally thought that if he asked people to work for the Han tribe, the food supply of his tribe would be difficult to guarantee. Now the Han tribe was willing to provide food and even gave them white salt every day, which solved their worries.
Calculated in this way, it was actually very cost-effective, so the leader continued to ask the flag chief for details.
"Well, what kind of work do you have to do in your tribe? Just build houses? Also, how much can you exchange for a house? Also, where are you going to build your houses? If it's too far, we can't go there. In addition, how many houses do you want to build? Will you be unable to exchange for things after you build the houses?" The leader held the flag chief and kept asking for details.
When the flag chief heard these questions, he was immediately overwhelmed. The specific details of the market were not his responsibility, so how could he know?
"This, the specifics are not my business. If you want to know these, I can take you to our camp. There is a captain in charge of the market who will tell you. It's over there, not far away." The flag chief pointed to the military camp in the west and said.
The leader tiptoed to the west and looked at it. Hesitantly, he said, "Oh, we have to go over there to ask. Well, then, can my people go with us?"
"Yes, that's no problem."
Just like that, after the soldiers of this small flag filled up the water, they drove the ox cart back to the military camp with more than a dozen foreigners.
When the group arrived at the gate of the military camp, the spearman flag went in first and reported to their leader Shi Zongqi. Then Shi Liu came to the camp gate and took the group to Youye to discuss the specific information of the market.
Youye's caravan was all wearing dark blue linen short robes, blue pants, and military boots. The style looked the same as the military uniform, but the color was different. Moreover, they had no armor and no exclusive weapons.
The two sides met in the camp. The chief and his tribesmen looked around curiously until Shi Liu introduced the identities of both sides to him.
"This is our captain You who is in charge of the market. If you have any questions, just ask him directly."
"Oh, okay, okay."
The chief nodded to You Ye. Looking at their clothes, he couldn't help but feel a little short. These people were just the captains and warriors of the Han tribe. How many people were there in their tribe? And they were dressed so well. He couldn't even tell what the clothes were made of. This Han tribe was too strong.
After collecting his mind again, the chief repeated the question just now, and then waited for You Ye to answer him.
"There is nothing wrong with what you said. The place where we build the house is here. It will not occupy your territory. Anyway, no one lives here, and it is not far from your tribe. Since you can come here to hunt, I believe it will be no problem to come here to work." You Ye first talked about the work location.
"Build a house here? Oh, that's good, no problem, we can come over." The little chief nodded and said.
"As for what kind of work you mentioned, well, now we just need to clear the ground here, cut down trees, cut down bushes, and clear weeds. After that, we will dig soil, build kilns, burn bricks, and then we will keep building houses. You don't have to worry about not having work to do, because we have to build a lot of houses, and you may not be able to finish them in your lifetime." Youye continued.
"Ah? You can't finish building it until you die? Then how many houses are you going to build?" The little leader opened his mouth in surprise.
"Well, I don't know how many houses we will build. Our leader just said that we will build a few hundred houses first, and then there will be many more. But we will definitely not finish building it this year, so don't worry." You Ye scratched the back of his head. He didn't know much about Luo Chong's plan
. He only knew that this new city would be many times larger than Hanyang City. He didn't know how much larger it was. "Oh, so how much can we get in return for our work?" The little leader asked about the thing he was most concerned about.
"The pay is calculated by the day. Each person gets three meals a day, the same as we eat. A full day's work can be exchanged for a porcelain bowl, five days for a small bucket, seven days for a clay pot, ten days for a large bucket, and three months for an iron pot.
If you want to exchange for salt, half a cup a day, two days for a full cup, here, this cup, a full cup." Youye said, and took out a bronze cup, which looked very similar to the modern ceramic cups with ears on the side. It can hold 250 milliliters of water. If it is used to hold salt, it should be heavier, about one pound.
The little chief looked at the cup and calculated silently in his heart. He remembered that in winter, he used a big bowl of white salt to exchange for the population. He still felt that it was worthwhile to come to work. Although that big bowl of white salt was a lot, almost five or six times as much, their people were gone. Now if you want to exchange so much white salt, you only need to work for the Han tribe for more than ten days, and the people are still theirs. There is almost no need to consider this, and you must come to work.
"Oh, that would be great. I have one last question. How many people do you want? Do you want only men to work? Do you want women?" the little chief asked again.
"It's a question of number. We will take as many as you can. Even if all your tribes come, there will be work to do. You can also contact the tribes around you after you go back and tell them what I just said.
As for women, as long as they can work, we will also take them. Even if children come, there will be work to do. The pay is a little lower. Of course, too young will definitely not be accepted." Youye thought for a while and said.
"We want children? What can children do?" The little chief was surprised again.
"Shepherding sheep. Do you see those sheep over there? They are all raised by our tribe. Children just need to watch the sheep go out to graze every day, and then drive them back in the evening. That counts as a day's work." Youye pointed to the 100 sheep not far away and said.
The little chief was even more surprised. He didn't expect that the Han tribe would actually raise wild animals. No wonder they had so many people and didn't have to go out hunting.
"Well, that thing won't bite, right? I've never seen such a horned beast."
"No, it won't bite. Sheep are very obedient, and they all eat grass. They also like to gather in groups. When you herd the sheep, just watch them and make sure they don't run away."
"Oh, then that's fine with me. Let's go back and discuss it today. If you want to come to work, I'll bring people over then." The young leader knew the information he wanted and planned to go back to the tribe first. He still had to discuss this matter with the elders. After all, the elders were the wise men of the tribe, they were smarter and could better analyze the pros and cons.
"Well, that's no problem. You'd better tell the other tribes the news when you go back. We have plenty of work to do here. Not only are there things to take, but we also provide food."
