The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 478 Zhu Yuanzhang's Trap
Exploitation is a nature.

Especially for businessmen.

There is a saying that there is no evil and no business. Don't believe that businessmen pay attention to any moral qualities that can be squeezed out, and they will naturally try their best to squeeze them out.

Of course, there are still some conscientious people among them, and it cannot be said that they will be beaten to death with a stick.

Exploiting workers' monthly money does not refer to a certain person, but a group of people.

The most powerful among them is not the boss of the factory.

People in the south call it "boss", which refers to the owner of the firm, which means "treasurer, owner, etc." in the north.

The old characters mean seasoned workmanship, and the characters "ban" mean what a businessman should have.

The so-called belief is standing, and only the product in the door can be called a board.

So called 'boss'.

The business model of a factory is very different from that of a regular business name. The title of the boss has become popular, and to some extent it is different from the regular boss and shopkeeper.

Zhu Ying was very surprised to find that most of the monthly wages of these workers were taken away by the so-called foremen.

The dentist only collected part of it.

Foremen are also workers, and they also need to do work. They are usually fellow workers, and they follow a dozen or dozens of people from a village.

In a factory, even if it is relatively small, there are hundreds of people, and these foremen are quite prestigious.

Even if it is the boss, it needs to be three-point dependent on it, otherwise it is very likely that it will just lead people and quit.

From this point of view, it seems to be the problem of the workers themselves.

Actually it is not.

Who else would dislike a lot of money?

The appearance of the foreman is a manifestation of bullying power. They often have their own relationships, and they seize more of it, distribute part to the boss, part to the boss, and keep the rest in their own pockets.

Most of the workers dare not speak out, because in this area of ​​jurisdiction, it is equivalent to a vacancy, and neither the government officials nor the arresters care about it.

Moreover, most of the factories are generally not located in the downtown area, but mostly in the sparsely populated suburbs.

Naturally, the government's ruling strength is much lower.

Those who can be foremen are used to running rampant in the countryside, and ordinary people cannot avoid it at all.

If you don't pay, you will still be given a meal after the Chinese New Year, and there is no place to run.

Furthermore, this is also a common phenomenon.

If you don't do it in this factory, you have to go to that factory to do it, and you will also be under the supervision of the foreman.

"It's true that good people are bullied by others, and good horses are ridden by others. This has been the case from ancient to modern times."

After learning the truth of the matter back then, Zhu Ying said with a sigh.

No matter in the past, now, or even in the distant future, such phenomena really have always existed.

To put it simply, this is bullying.

A seemingly simple question, but it is really not an easy task to really find out.

Even if Zhu Ying asked in person, most of the workers who had been bullied would never really tell the truth.

At the very beginning, Zhu Ying found that according to the running accounts in the factory, the bosses of these factories basically paid enough for the minimum monthly money.

Although the intermediary fees of Yaren do exist, the truth was learned only after arresting and interrogating several Yaren who specialize in this business.

This kind of thing, in the eyes of ordinary officials, is quite tricky, and if there is any carelessness, it will cause conflicts.

The current workers, who don't know why, will subconsciously protect the foreman, and even help him cover it up.

This makes it difficult to obtain evidence.

Without witnesses, even if officials know about it, what's the use of it.

In fact, the workers are not fools, but they know more clearly that once they expose it by themselves, not to mention the relationship with the foreman, there will be no place to gain a foothold in the village in the future.

The government is only temporary, but those foremen have always lived in the village.

As the saying goes, if you don’t see what you see when you look up, you can run away from a monk, but you can’t run away from a temple.

Uncle Zhang, who followed, said with some embarrassment: "Boss, there are many things like this in the factory of our chamber of commerce."

"Actually, the old slaves also heard some rumors before, but they didn't speak up themselves, so they couldn't blame others."

"Those who opened their mouths couldn't continue working in the factory. In the end, they had no choice but to leave. Instead, they had nowhere to go. If they went to another factory, no one would cover them. Not only would they be beaten, but their monthly salary would be even less. .”

"In private, the old slave also asked a few people. From their point of view, the factory can take care of their own food and lodging, and there is still one or two pennies left every month. The family can barely live on."

"Generally speaking, it is much better than working as a tenant for the landlord in the village before. If you save a little and have a little left, then you will be satisfied."

Hearing this, Zhu Ying immediately understood.

Basically, the minimum wage I set was too high.

So that some people are eyeing this profit margin.

Zhu Ying's idea is not wrong.

According to the current accounting, at the lowest level, each worker has four guanbao notes a month, and that is 48 guan bao notes a year.

Because of the current policy of encouraging childbirth, most families basically have three or more children.

The food and clothing expenses of each child, including the wife's total, the minimum standard is also three times higher.

This is the standard used in general, if you only eat, it will naturally be a little less.

In fact, Zhu Ying's idea is very simple. He likes that the people can better raise their children, at least among the many children, they can support one person to study.

Even the simplest study.

Now if you follow the foreman's example, everything will be messed up, not to mention studying, it's just a concept of not dying from hunger.

In this way, what is the difference between this and ruling the world in a cage.

This is not what Zhu Ying wants.

His vision and layout are completely different from those of the rulers of all dynasties. He knows that there is a wider world in this world.

Even class contradictions in today's society, even irreconcilable ones, can be transferred outward.

The world is so big, and now the population of Ming Dynasty is only over 6000 million. Even if it is expanded for hundreds of years, the territory of Ming Dynasty and the development of productive forces will not cause any pressure at all.

And the continuous expansion of the outside world, immigration, can guarantee the Ming Dynasty's state, and it is continuously extended.

When the external contradictions become tense, naturally the internal contradictions will begin to slowly fade away.

It is also like the current conquest of the Wa Kingdom.

In the Jingshi Mansion Newspaper, there will always be uninterrupted publications about the period of the battle against the Wa Kingdom.

In addition to some descriptions of the Japanese people, there will also be some landscape paintings about the Japanese country, and even secretly instructed to compile articles about the Japanese country, and talk about the possibility of the Japanese country in the future.

This kind of subtle influence is actually Zhu Ying's desire to immigrate some Ming people to the Wa country.

As time went by, the war situation in the Wa Kingdom was actually not conducive to Ming Dynasty.

The most important of these is not a problem at the war level, the biggest problem is the problem of morale.

Such a foreign environment, occasional small earthquakes, small storms, etc., made the soldiers of Ming Dynasty a little overwhelmed.

Moreover, when there is no direct confrontation, the Japanese warriors like to engage in guerrilla warfare in the jungle. This does not do much damage to the Ming Expeditionary Army, but it is very annoying.

After a long time, the temperament of many soldiers became a little irritable. After all, most of the soldiers who went there were warriors, and there were fewer literati. This also made the conflict with the people of the Japanese country under the rule more acute.

Enlightenment is a long-term period, not a problem that can be solved in a short period of time.

However, although there are such signs, at least several large-scale battles will be carried out against the Wa country before the next arrangement will be considered.

When Zhu Ying returned to Kunning Palace, he understood that there was no possibility of reforming the foreman's side.

The only problem is the issue of evidence.

But sometimes, evidence is not that important.

Regarding this point, Zhu Ying naturally reported it to the old man.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang already has a sense of ease in business development.

After familiarizing himself with some of Dasun's business routines, Zhu Yuanzhang has already gained a lot of experience in maintaining the current business direction, not to mention innovating.

Especially in some arrangements for overseas trade, there are many detailed requirements, such as specified relevant regulations, systems, and regulations.

Almost all of them were operated by Zhu Yuanzhang himself. When Zhu Ying saw these details, he understood the wisdom of the old man.

Compared with Zhu Ying's own ideas, Zhu Yuanzhang's rules, although a little stricter, can better maintain the development of the maritime trade system.

Regarding the matter of the foreman, Zhu Yuanzhang also shared his ideas for his grandson's reference.

On the whole, Zhu Yuanzhang still hopes that his grandson can make his own decisions.

He didn't say it directly, but told Dasun a truth.

"From our point of view, there are two kinds of people themselves, bad people and good people."

"Good people are not tricky. Although they are honest and responsible, they bully the weak and fear the hard. For some hope, they are willing to endure it. But if they push him to a dead end, they will naturally let go of everything completely."

"At this time, there is naturally no difference between good people and bad people."

"Troublemakers are not kind, they can bully others, and they can do anything for their own benefit, but if they meet stronger people, they will naturally become good people."

"In terms of treating the people, you can't just give benefits blindly. You should know that if you fight Mi En and promote Mi En, the eldest grandson will give you a lot, and it will naturally give others opportunities to take advantage of."

"If this salary is very important to every common people, then naturally this phenomenon will not happen."

What the old man meant, in fact, Zhu Ying knew clearly in his heart, that is, to cancel the protection of the law on the minimum monthly wages for workers, or to lower it.

When every penny becomes important, then these foremen will naturally be overwhelmed by other workers.

But this is not what Zhu Ying wants.

Seeing that grandson was silent, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said, "We just know that grandson won't do that."

"What we just said is the way of officials to govern the world, which is the method of Confucianism, but it is not the method of our royal family."

"This world belongs to our grandpa and grandson. Since the grandson has set the rules and changed them day and night, wouldn't he lose his face for nothing?"

"As far as we are concerned, these things are simple. Anyone who dares to break our rules will die for us."

"If there is one, kill one, if there are hundreds, kill a hundred, kill until no one dares to touch, kill until no one dares to do it, naturally it will be fine."

"These people should be killed, even if they are like that corrupt official. No matter how many people are killed, it will have no effect on our Daming. For the common people, even if they don't say anything, they will applaud in their hearts."

"It not only benefits the people, but also protects our dignity. Why not kill two birds with one stone."

"Grandson, you have to remember, we are the royal family, we don't need to pay attention to any evidence, we only need to pay attention to a fairness."

"What is justice? Justice is in the hearts of the people. As long as it is what the people want, they will do it freely. As long as they violate the people's will, they will be free to kill."

"Right or wrong, it doesn't matter to us."

Hearing these words, Zhu Ying was extremely shocked.

Although this truth is understood when it is said, there are only a few emperors who can really do this in all dynasties.

The emperor is the only one who respects me.

At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang can obviously be said to be the unity of knowledge and action.

That's what I thought and what I did.

Fame, don't care, doesn't matter.

Those who disobey will be killed.

As long as Daming's foundation is solid, a little fame doesn't matter.

The real people's heart is not what those literati say, but only by seeing and experiencing it for yourself can you understand what the people want in their hearts.

Of course, what Zhu Yuanzhang meant by these words was not to teach the eldest grandson how to kill people, nor was it to solve any problems by killing them.

Instead, tell Dasun, as the emperor, the Nine-Five Supreme, don't be easily restrained.

Seeing Dasun's suddenly enlightened expression, Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile: "Let's tell us what Dasun is going to do."

The question is like this, if Dasun Zhen solves all the problems by killing, Zhu Yuanzhang's next education will be in place.

The previous words are actually full of inductiveness. Zhu Yuanzhang said it to see if the grandson's heart will be easily influenced by others.

If Dasun chose to kill him cleanly, naturally Zhu Yuanzhang had already prepared other rhetoric.

Zhu Yuanzhang took great pains in guiding and educating his grandson.

Zhu Ying thought for a while before replying: "My grandson thinks that although these foremen's actions are bullying, they are not a crime of death."

"If it is a means of killing, it is inevitable that there will be some unjust deaths."

"In fact, the key point is not how to punish them, but how to remove them from the crowd."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied.

A qualified king naturally has his own judgment.

"How does Dasun think we can find out?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.

　I have caught a cold today, one is more stable, and tomorrow two more will resume.
