I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 83, Food stamp system

Xu Wei continued: "The monthly salaries of the several of you who are in charge are also set at the highest level, and you can get 1 yuan a month. Everyone can pay a month's monthly salary first, so that everyone will not feel like a new home, but have no money in their hands. No.

Can get more money, old man Wang and the others are also happy.

But Xu Wei also asked them to pay attention in advance: "Now everyone can receive a monthly salary. The entire Mayi has hundreds of millions of dollars in turnover a month. If you are not careful, it will easily cause a run. If everyone rushes to exchange grain, our Mayi will have a survival crisis, so we will open a grain store in each community, but each person can only buy one stone of grain a month, and these grains must be eaten by themselves and cannot be resold. District chiefs, you should pay attention to the fact that the people are taking advantage of this loophole to profit from it, catch one and deal with it!"

The district chiefs naturally assured Xu Wei that they would keep an eye on everyone and not let everyone take advantage of Mayi's loopholes.

Xu Weidao continued: "Wang Lei, you should also be careful not to let the caravan transport the grain out of Mayi, and immediately seize their grain when they find out. We set the price of grain at a low price to make everyone's life more convenient, not for profiteers. For profit!"

Wang Lei nodded and said, "I will let everyone pay attention!"

Old man Wang worried: "Why don't we sell grain at the outside price, the price difference is more than double, I'm afraid many people will be tempted, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Mayi, no matter how tight our defense is, there will be loopholes !"

Xu Wei said solemnly: "The production of factories requires the stability of their own materials. Only stable and low prices can speed up the development of a region. Especially the development of factories requires the efforts of workers, but if the price of food soars up to 1000 yuan like last year in Jizhou , Work hard and even can’t support yourself, who would want to be a worker! Therefore, the price of Mayi must be stable and low, so low that one worker is enough to support a family of five, so that everyone will no longer envy those who have The people in the field, we must find a way to attract people to become workers! Mayi's workshop is our pillar."

As for the skyrocketing and plummeting prices, Xu Wei feels the same. He is a small merchant in modern times. No matter what he does, as long as he makes some money, there will be various problems. Either the store will increase, or the price of the purchase will increase. Anyway It is to suck out all the money you earn, so that you can stay in a state where you can't starve to death and can't make much money.

At any rate, Xu Wei is his successor and has also taken political classes. Naturally, he will not mistake the object of hatred like the banana man. He hated those rentiers back then. Sucking away their own hard-earned money, the real estate developers and their methods are no different from the landlords of the past.

In modern times, although Xu Wei did not experience when the new dynasty was just established, he was very eager for the stable prices of that era (he chose to forget the bad things). Now that he is in charge of Mayi, of course he must Realize your previous ideas.

And Xu Wei is really terrified of the prices in this world. When he first came to this world, a stone of grain cost 500 yuan, and when the war was at its most intense, it skyrocketed to 1000 yuan. If he hadn't brought the old man with him With the Hundred Refined Sword, they might have to eat grass to get through this food crisis.

But this year Jizhou had a bumper harvest of grain (less than a hundred thousand rentiers) and there was no aristocrats to control the price of grain. The price of grain in Jizhou fell back to about 100 yuan, which was almost the price in the heyday of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Many elderly people in Jizhou It was only after seeing this food price that I recalled the prosperous times of the Han Dynasty. The price of food in Jizhou was low, and even the price of food in Bingzhou and Youzhou was affected. Although it did not fall to 100 yuan, it also rose from the peak of 300-400 yuan. It fell to more than 200 yuan!Prices seem to be on a roller coaster, so of course Xu Wei has to find a way to stabilize prices.

Xu Wei thought for a while and said: "In the future, we will implement the food stamp system. The workers in the workshop will eat one meal in the workshop. One stone of grain per month is enough to support themselves. We will give each worker a food stamp of one stone every month. As for the farming tribes, they only need to buy food for half a year, and 1 shi per month is enough. We issue food coupons of 2 shi every month. In the future, people who come to the grain store to buy grain will need money as well. Food stamps, so that the consumption of food can be controlled, and inns and restaurants can issue more food stamps."

It just so happens that Xu Wei has a paper mill here, and he doesn’t even need a printing factory to make food stamps. He just needs to carve a seal with food stamps on it, and then keep stamping it on white paper, and white paper is not popular in this era. , and don’t worry about someone coming to make a fake.

The only thing Xu Wei is lucky about is that he doesn't need to buy cloth tickets, salt tickets and other miscellaneous tickets, otherwise it would be really difficult to come up with such a complicated system with a small town!

After negotiating the amount of the monthly salary, each district set up a canteen. Of course, Xu Wei's one is about the size of a supermarket, and there are a lot of things in it, and then the respective materials are transported to these canteens.It is convenient for those who get money to buy goods.

Of course, a monthly salary must be paid. Xu Wei also built a large warehouse near the city lord's mansion in Mayi and transformed it into a money shop. He found a subordinate named Sun Qing. Their family used to be a part-time loan shark in the code opening industry, but they were not very powerful. He went bankrupt, and he himself even became a refugee, who came here when Xu Wei attacked Yecheng.

After Xu Wei learned about his experience, he arranged to work in the Tengjia Army Cao, specializing in money and food, and he did it properly, so Xu Wei arranged for him to be the steward of the money shop.

At the same time, Xu Wei has hired hundreds of people, all of whom know simple characters. If it weren’t for the Yellow Turban Army bringing this group of high-quality talents, and Xu Wei himself is constantly teaching 20 people to read and write, it would be really hard to find them. So many guys.

After the money shop, the place where the monthly salary will be issued is here, and it is also the place where the people save money. Xu Wei thinks that he should try not to let the factory managers and Mayi's high-level officials get in touch with real money. This is also a way to prevent corruption. .

At the same time, the managers of various factories and the head of the community began to tell everyone the good news that the monthly salary will be paid. The whole Mayi city cheered. Everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time.

Of course, in order not to affect the work, the 24 districts in Mayi come one by one, which can reduce the flow of people and control the inflow of money. After all, this can delay the time for 24 days.

And the first to start is the soldiers of the 2 army, who are the first batch of people to receive monthly salaries.In order to ensure the efficiency of withdrawing money, the soldiers went in one by one.
