She only wants to do infrastructure construction

Chapter 38

It is true after all, after all, the cabinet has the courage to persuade Emperor Wuhou to stop the war, and his knowledge and ambition are not bad, and there have been many good ministers since ancient times, and the idea that the people are more important than the emperor has always been there.

It's just that there are not many monarchs who are willing to adopt it.

But regardless of this, Cui Fuyin always knew the grandfather and father of the original owner, Li Yewu secretly reminded himself that he had to be more restrained in his actions in the future and not fly so fast.

Otherwise, if Cui Fu Yin sees it through, he will have to try to lie.

But at this time, Cui Fuyin obviously didn't think so much, he just cared about how the descendants of the former teacher were doing.

Logically speaking, if his teacher had not been dismissed, it would be reasonable for Li Yewu's family to be the king and princess, but now she only has the name of a little lady, and their life is not very good.

Just when Cui Fuyin was thinking about it, Li Yewu spoke.

"My parents passed away one after another when I was young, and I was the only one in the family."

Cui Fuyin's heart was sour, although he had thought that Li Yewu's life would be difficult, but he did not expect it to be this bad.

"Hey, the unfilial students have been excluded from the court all these years, and they can't help the teacher. I really feel guilty."

"Don't say that, you have been implicated by our Li family for being outside the political power all these years."

Cui Fuyin waved his hand with emotion: "Everything has passed. Although I have not been close to the Golden Luan Hall in this life, I have lived to this age safely and soundly because I am far away from the court. It is a blessing in disguise."

Cui Fuyin, who is used to being obsessive and never stands out, is very opposed to Li Yewu's use of paid corvee.

However, after knowing her identity, Cui Fuyin changed his mind.

"Let the old man help his wife in the last few years, and it can be regarded as repaying the teacher's upbringing."

Li Yewu did not expect such a turning point, and was surprised and delighted.

In this way, thanks to the kindness of the grandfather who has never met, Li Yewu took Cui Fuyin into the establishment.

Without any delay, he notified the paid corvee notice as quickly as possible.

……

Speaking of which, hurry up and rush back to the countryside to tell your relatives that the Palace wants to recruit a large number of handymen.

The family finally saw their children come back, and they heard about the corvee before they could be happy.

Everyone couldn't help showing embarrassment: "Seeing that it's spring plowing, and now we're doing corvee, what should we do with spring plowing?"

Most of them chose to go to the refugee camp in Taihe City, and only a small number of people stayed in their hometown to farm.

Originally, the land was sparsely populated, and if corvée was employed at this time, there would be no one farming the land.

"Isn't it usually the end of the midsummer or early winter that's in corvée?"

Although it is said that the time of corvee service is determined by the government, the Yamen generally does not arrange corvee service during the spring plowing and autumn harvest period, unless it is an urgent task.

But there will be no flash floods and no droughts, so what kind of project is going to be done!

Everyone shook their heads again and again, muttering that this day can't go on, and it seems that they have to go to the refugee shelter.

Dawang quickly explained.

"Father, you misunderstood! This time the corvee is different. The princess said that if you sign up to participate in the corvee, you will get 200 cash per day, and it will also include room and board."

"What?" Everyone's eyes widened.

"Is there still money for the corvee?"

"No... no?"

"Really! The princess told us herself, and granted us a vacation so that we can go home and let you know."

"Two hundred Wen a day? Oh my God..."

"Well, how much can the refugee camp receive each month?" the mother couldn't help asking the elder brother.

The eldest brother scratched his head and recited it backwards.

"The refugee camp has a monthly subsidy of 120 renminbi, 30 catties of rice grain, quarterly fun money, beef and mutton for Chinese New Year and so on."

The family members are well aware of the welfare policy of the refugee camp.

I don't blame them, after all, many neighbors in the same village have entered the refugee camp, and there are many exchanges among them.

Of course, everyone also wanted to go to the refugee camp if they couldn't get along, so they paid special attention to the situation there.

However, now everyone is stunned by paid corvees, and the slums have no light at all.

"This is a thousand times better than the welfare in the slums! And there is food and housing, so what are you waiting for, let's pack up and go."

"Huh? Stop farming?"

"What else do you want to cultivate? Six taels of silver a month, how much money can you earn in a year? We don't need that broken land!"

Seeing that his father wanted to report to Taihe City immediately, Dawang was a little bit dumbfounded.

"Father, the princess said that the duration of this corvée is only 1-3 months, not a whole year."

"Ah..." Dawang's father was a little disappointed, thinking it was a long-term job.

Grandpa Dawang spat out the weeds in his mouth with a smile: "What are you thinking about? It's not bad to be able to work for such a good welfare for a month. If the seven members of our family go together, there will be more than forty taels! "

"That's right, the princess is still in charge of food and lodging, which is great."

Usually everyone is in corvee, but they all bring their own dry food and tools. As for being tired and sleepy, there is only a big shed to cover the dew, and don't think about anything else.

Everyone decided to go with the whole family.

"The conditions given by the concubine Huahui are so good, is the task difficult?"

"Uh... I haven't heard of that. The princess just said that she can build a house, and anyone who wants to work can come over."

"Can our women go too?" Da Wangniang was a little nervous
"It should be possible, otherwise the princess won't let everyone who wants to come."

The family was talking when a neighbor came over.

"I heard that Dawang is back, why is the whole family having a meeting here?"

Dawang's father glanced at his son in embarrassment, not sure if the matter should be kept secret, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, he just responded vaguely.

Compared with Dawang's father, Dawang is much more straightforward. He told his neighbors what he told his family before.

How can the neighbors sit still when they hear about the benefits?Hurry back and tell the master.

The person in charge told the old Mrs. Zhao next door, and the old Mrs. Zhao passed the news to her natal family...

In this way, the phenomenon of human-to-human transmission in paid corvee labor quickly spread in the county town and villages.

However, as the scope of the spread became wider and wider, the villagers' sanity gradually returned, and they couldn't help but doubt the authenticity of the matter.

200 texts a day... Is the pie in the sky real?
Could there be some conspiracy in it?

"After all, it's just hearsay. It's best to ask the county government. If it's true, the county government will definitely issue a corvee order."

"Yes, yes, it's better to ask. If the county magistrate doesn't know about it, then let's not go."

"That's right, be careful."

Just do it, and everyone ran to the Yamen overnight.

Coincidentally, the county magistrates in various places have just received the latest edict.

Seeing this "paid corvee" order, let alone the villagers did not believe it, the county magistrates were also stunned.

It is said that the king is prodigal, and the concubine is even more outrageous than the king!
