"Wang Shouyin!"

"My lord, the servant is here!"

Xu Xianwen looked at Wang Shouyin solemnly: "Wang Shouyin, in Daming from now on, Han people are not allowed to call themselves slaves!"

"Don't call me Mr. Guan, I'm not an official, just call me Mr. Xu."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Wang Shouyin was so frightened that he almost knelt down.

"Your son is 11 years old?"

"Yes, he was just 11 years old.

Xu Xianwen looked at Wang Shouyin and said, "Under the age of 12 must go to school!"

"But I have no money!"

"You don't need to spend money, as long as you farm for Daming or work in a factory, your child can go to elementary school for free. If you want your child to go to school, sign up now!"

Wang Shouyin was stunned, that is to say, the descendants of farmers and workers can study for free?

What kind of fairy government is this?
Pinching his own thigh, Wang Shouyin shouted excitedly: "Mr. Xu, I'll sign up!"

After the registration was completed, Wang Shouyin took his son and wife and began to officially start a new life under the guidance of the Ming government!

In fact, many factories at the camp site came to recruit workers, such as sugar factories, textile factories, and steel factories, and the wages paid were very high.

However, Wang Shouyin believes that as a farmer, entering a factory to work is simply not doing his job properly. Only the genes of farming are deeply rooted in Wang Shouyin's body.

He rejected the recruitment and decided to reclaim wasteland and land near Bahe River in the west of Xi'an Prefecture.

Regardless of farming or part-time work, Daming welcomes everyone.

Therefore, Daming also thoughtfully prepared transportation services for them. They didn't have to walk, and boarded a four-wheeled passenger carriage. This kind of carriage has two rows of seats on the side, and a dozen to twenty people can be accommodated in a carriage.

The speed of the carriage was very fast, and there were not many bumps.

The four-wheeled carriage was speeding on the road, and Wang Shouyin looked at the industrial areas rising from the roadside...

And on the highway, extending in all directions, on this main road, there is an endless stream of carriages coming and going.

Wang Shouyin's understanding of the power of industry is still very limited, but he knows that Xi'an Prefecture has changed just based on the heavy traffic on these roads.

It became completely unrecognizable to these refugees from northern Shaanxi.

What the hell is that chimney with black smoke over there?

Smelling it carefully, the air seemed to have a different smell, fishy and sweet, hovering in the sky like a black dragon, and these refugees from northern Shaanxi were dumbfounded.

After walking on the cement road for half a day, the road condition has become much worse. Although it is not so potholed, the gap is very obvious compared with the place near Xi'an city.

To tell the truth, Daming's current engineering speed is already very fast, and even a word appeared in Huangming Daily: Daming Speed.

In three or four months, Xi'an City University can be changed completely, which is already very miraculous.

It also shows that if Daming wants to develop a place with all his strength, it will change quickly!
The scenery along the way was a bit boring, but Wang Shouyin was very excited, and he was full of expectations for his new life.

Interestingly, when the refugee team passed by a construction site, they saw hundreds of laborers working in full swing for a construction section, leveling the roadbed with hoes and compacting the road surface.

Wang Shouyin looked at the coachman curiously and asked, "Is the corvee so heavy in the Ming Dynasty?"

Wang Shouyin saw that there were not only 50 or 50-year-old boys on this construction site, but also [-]-year-old old people. Yes, in this era, [-]-year-olds are already considered old people.

The coachman sipped the water leisurely and said with a smile: "Da Ming has no corvees, like their work, they all earn a lot of money, especially the construction site!"

"Give money?"

"Yes!"

Wang Shouyin was surprised and said: "Brother, your accent is from Xiangxi, how come you come here to ask for a living!"

The coachman smiled plainly: "Our coachmen who are hauling goods and passengers are wherever there is business, so we will go there!"

"Our emperor, his old man listed Xi'an as a key development zone of the Ming Dynasty. Once the imperial decree is in place, now goods and people are all coming to Xi'an, and business will naturally prosper!"

Wang Shouyin fell into deep thought.

As a landlord, he is somewhat knowledgeable.

He had a question: how can a coachman speak so well, Hunan has only been ruled by Ming for four or five years, why is Ming!

If he had the chance to read Huangming Daily, he would understand why.

The Ming Dynasty was not like the Daqing Dynasty who fooled the people.

In fact, if you fool the people, the people will also fool you.

How you treat the people, how the people will treat you.

The Tartar Qing Dynasty was stupid until the late Qing Dynasty, and the people were left with nothing but insensitivity.

As a result, when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded the Qing Dynasty, two phenomena appeared: one was that the governors and ministers of the southeastern provinces jointly disobeyed orders and made peace with the big powers privately, completely ignoring the Qing Dynasty's decree.

The other is that many common people in the Qing Dynasty guided the way for the Eight-Power Allied Forces and moved supplies. The Eight-Power Allied Forces are very welcome!

Of course, there are some hooligans among them, but there are indeed some who are willing to work for the Eight-Power Allied Forces.

I remember an old photo that faithfully recorded the scenes of the people in Gyeonggi doing logistics for the Eight-Power Allied Forces.

Those onlookers heard from foreigners that whoever transported the shells from the port to the warehouse would pay him the transportation fee, so the big guys ran home, took out their wheelbarrows and gave them to the foreigners for transportation. It is a pleasure to earn a lot of money in a day!
The common people even thought in their hearts: If this is transported to the Qing army, not only will they not be given a copper, but they will be whipped if they do not do well. This foreign boss is very particular.

There is another photo: the Eight-Power Allied Forces were about to climb over the wall and enter the Forbidden City, and a group of ordinary people were watching as usual, but a foreigner asked a translator to tell them, whoever can lend us a ladder, we will pay rent!
Hey, don’t tell me, when the people nearby heard this, they quickly moved all their ladders out to earn extra money, and even more awesome, they directly told the Eight-Power Allied Forces: I can show you the way, I know where to go Easy to flip in!
This is the people of the Qing Dynasty. As the saying goes, if a country doesn’t know its people, then naturally the people don’t know it has a country.
"Does Daming really get paid for his work?"

He said solemnly: "I have said that it is not a corvee, it is a Ming worker, and they don't pay, who will work? If you have the strength, you can earn three big silver dollars if you work for a month. That's Zhu Datou, absolutely Zuyin, I have never seen such a beautiful coin!"

"By the way, three silver dollars are three taels of silver!"

"Even if you don't want money, you can ask for food. You people came too late and missed today's spring plowing. You can only wait until next year's spring to cultivate wasteland. If you don't come to work, even if you have money, wouldn't you just sit and eat?"

"Three or two?"

Wang Shouyin was taken aback. Although he was a small landlord, when the farming season was busy, if the weather was bad, he had to hire short laborers. Basically, he would randomly give three or five copper coins a day.

In case of a good harvest, it is a big deal to give seven or eight dollars. Even so, people who want to be part-time workers are still queuing up.

Daming is really scary!
