After telling the Mohist disciples about the waterwheel, Bai Hui turned around and said to the others: "There are many of you who can write and read.
There is a decree that I have obtained from the king.
The land east of the river is Although the State of Wei was ceded to me, Da Qin, in order to stabilize the people, all corporal punishments were temporarily replaced by hard labor. " "I need someone who can write and speak, so that the people in Hedong can understand this decree."
"Also, the new rules and the strategy of implementing collective agriculture on a village basis.
The basic theory of this rule is that the more you work, the more you get, and the distribution is according to need.
What is distribution according to need.
The disabled, the old and the weak, and pregnant women , then they should get more than what they paid for their labor.
This is an act of love for the people by me, the King of Qin, and I care for the people of Hedong. " Gongsun Long stepped forward and said, "May I ask Chief Zuo Shu what corporal punishment is?"
Bai Hui cursed in his heart, Damn it, you Warring States people cut your nose and legs all day long, and you don't even know what corporal punishment is.
In fact, Gongsun Long just didn't understand the word corporal punishment.
After explaining the meaning of corporal punishment, Bai Hui said: "Flogging does not count.
All punishments that make people lose something, such as cutting off the nose, chopping off the legs, and tattoos are also counted.
Tattoos are not allowed if they are not serious crimes.
You understand me.
Do you mean?"
After Bai Hui finished speaking, someone asked again: "Excuse me, Chief Zuo, if the output of a village's land is forced to work and some people are absent, how to distribute it?
Also, how much should be distributed to the old and weak, and how much should be distributed to the elderly and the weak, and to those who are pregnant and unable to work?
A pregnant woman can't do hard work, but she can still embroider and weave.
How can this be calculated?"
Bai Hui gave a helpless smile: "I have considered these details, what else do you want to do?
You are a prisoner of war now that you are eating free food here.
If you want to regain your freedom, you have to work for me.
Go to the countryside and visit villages.
I will implement the details of this matter, and then let the people of Xinqin in the five and a half cities in Hedong understand these rules. " "promise" "What are you doing standing around?
Get rations and money and work for me."
Bai Hui pointed at these scholars and cursed.
Everyone was about to go out when Bai Hui suddenly shouted again: "Everyone, stop" Everyone immediately stopped and listened to Bai Hui say: "In the five and a half cities east of the river, the land of all the nobles was confiscated as Qin land.
Only the nobles recognized by our King Qin can retain the land, and all the land is given to ordinary people. , and there are prisoners of war and prisoners, but no slaves.
All slaves can become civilians as long as they work for three years."
"promise" "Also, for the people in Hedong who can't survive right now, use official rations to provide relief.
One person will starve to death and another person will die of illness.
You can choose someone to take the whip.
Go ahead."
"promise."
After leaving Bai Hui's courtyard, the captured scholars were led by Gongsun Long.
Because Bai Hui was polite to Gongsun Long and called him sir, which was a sign of respect, Gongsun Long became their leader.
Outside the door, Gongsun Long said: "Although Chief Bai Zuo has a bad temper, the Qin army did not kill the prisoners of war this time.
Looking at the decrees of Chief Zuo, it is not the tyranny of the Qin people as rumored."
"More than just a tyranny, this is a government of benevolence and righteousness.
Looking at the seven countries in the world, which one has such a benevolent government?
The more you work, the more you will get, and these eight words will be distributed according to your needs.
Chief Zuo Shu should be called Bai Zi."
"Well, it makes sense.
Let's try to implement such a decree.
If there are any wonderful things that will be reflected in the process of executing the decree, this is probably a concept that is far higher than what we have learned.

Based on what Zuo Shuchang just said If so, I think it should be changed to: more work, more reward, everyone should do their best, and everyone should be distributed according to their needs. " "Mr.
Gongsun said it well.
In addition, if everyone does his best, benevolence, virtue, etiquette, and righteousness can be fully demonstrated."
"No, no" Gongsun Long waved his hands repeatedly: "I'm afraid Zuo Shuchang meant this, but what he said was not detailed enough.
I, Gongsun Long, must not add anything arrogantly."
"Then, we will first go to the countryside and go to the villages to conduct on-the-spot research on what proportion should be allocated to the elderly and the weak."
"Okay, let's make some arrangements and act separately.
We will discuss the matter together in Beiqu City in half a month."
The eight words Bai Hui said were just from his textbooks when he was studying in college.
But these eight words were like a nuclear bomb falling in the Pacific Ocean, causing huge waves hundreds of feet high.
Half of the five cities in the east of Hedong are in trouble.
Only one of them has temporarily refrained from corporal punishment, which is far beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
Coupled with the fact that the whole village works together to take care of the elderly and the weak, this is such a benevolent policy.
What ordinary people didn't expect the most was that although the land became village-based land, and each village had to make up for 100 households, no nobles collected an extra share of rent.
Half a month later, by the Yellow River in Beiqu City.
Thousands of people are gathered here, and two huge wooden wheels several feet high are being carried by hundreds of soldiers and are about to be erected.
This huge wooden wheel was definitely a miracle for an era that still relied on human power.
With a small thing, Bai Hui completely tied up the Momen.
Not only those he captured, but also many Momen who were originally in Wei and Han also heard about it and joined Bai Hui's creation of Xingmin Machinery.
This little thing is a pulley or pulley block.
Bai Hui shouted: "Generals and soldiers of the Qin Army, nothing is difficult in the world, only for those who are willing.
Today is the day when the water of the Yellow River benefits the people.
With more strength, go ahead!"
Dozens more people rushed forward, and several hundred generals also took off their armor and went up to help.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of people from Hedong, the original state of Wei, also went to support the wooden frame and pull the cables.
It took most of the day to set up the two huge waterwheels on the stone platform and wooden frame that had been prepared.
The first waterwheel was adjusted and started to rotate.
The waterwheel was driven by the water of the Yellow River, and then one bucket after another Buckets of water were poured into the ditch.
It simply requires manpower.
The water flows from the Yellow River next to the cliff to the canal and into the puddles that have been dug long ago.
The second water cart was set up, and Bai Hui pulled Bai Qi beside him: "Brother, as the biggest official this time, you have to try this in person.
You have ground soybeans in the army."
"Okay."
Bai Qi understood that if he wanted the people of the original Wei State in Hedong to accept the rule of Qin, those in power must learn to be close to the people.
Bai Qi took off his clothes and walked to a platform.
The Mohist disciple next to him nodded slightly to Bai Qi, then pulled the handle, and saw the huge stone mill in front of Bai Qi with a diameter of four feet starting to rotate.
Bai Qi grabbed a handful of soybeans and placed them on the stone mill.
There is no need to shake the stone mill, just pour the soybeans, and the ground soybeans will quickly flow out of the vat next to it.
Bai Hui stood on the high platform: "Common people, fellow villagers.
I promise to build a mill for every village.
There will be no fear of running out of water.
I just said that nothing is difficult for people in the world, as long as they are willing.
The Mohist disciples told me that at most there will be no water.
In one month, they can build a mill that uses wind to grind beans for us
