Chapter 104 Insurance
Just when Zhang Zongxian explained the issue of bills to Su'e and Ding Bo Bank.

There was a sudden influx of refugees in Qingjian County, and the people in the yamen didn't care at first. After all, many workshops were recruiting people, and these refugees would soon be consumed.

The grain is also supported by the Taiping grain stack, and there is no floating.The county government also organized porridge sheds to appease the people.

However, the continuous arrival of refugees made the new Dianshi of Qingjian County realize that something was wrong, and quickly sent someone to report to Zhizhou Yamen.

When Zhang Zongxian received the news, he didn't pay attention to it. The road was supposed to be built, and it was the busy season of farming. Anyway, there was a shortage of workers. Let the refugees come to repair it, which happened to be a substitute for work.

Arrange Qian Tongzhi to let those who win the bid hire the refugees.Zhang Zongxian didn't bother to ask.

On the third day after taking office, Yu Nong reported to Zhang Zongxian all the investigation reports of all the tyrants in Jiazhou.

One of them, Li Yuanwai, did repair bridges and roads on weekdays, but it was all for his own business.Although he didn't bully men and women in the village, people often died in his mines, and he would just pay two dollars if he died.Nor is the reputation.

The tycoons in other places are also similar, most of them are mining, and they buy land when they earn money from mining, and then lend usury to develop into big landlords step by step.Because there are many miners working in mines.The villagers are even more afraid to provoke them.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Zongxian had a plan.Immediately, someone called Qian Tongzhi.

"There is an arrangement for Zhizhou to call the next official."

"That Li Yuanwai is not as famous as you said!"

"The lower officials of Zhizhou were also forced by him, and the lower officials immediately brought people to arrest that Li Yuanwai."

"There's no need to catch it. You ask him to buy the briquette monopoly rights in the five counties of Jiazhou. Then each briquette is sold to the common people at a price of two cents. The price can only be increased after three years. Even if he seeks for the common people Good luck. From now on, I won't bother him.

In addition, all mining operators in Jiazhou will have to pay taxes in the future, and the mine supervisor sent by the inner court will arrive soon. Anyone who dares to resist the tax will be killed by the official.

These taxes are all calculated on a catty basis, and every catty mined will be taxed at [-]% of the market price.All taxes are paid to the Taiping Bank, and with the receipt issued by the Taiping Bank, they go to the Yamen to issue a tax payment certificate.

The official will let the people in the tax class set up a card to investigate and deal with it. Those who do not have a tax payment certificate will be treated as tax evasion. In addition to paying the tax, all tax evaders will be fined ten times. If they are caught twice, they will directly take back the mine. Ya auction to other merchants.

Finally, all shopkeepers who open mines must insure their miners. Each miner pays one tael of insurance per year, and the money is handed over to Taiping. If there is no death in this mine within a year, then there is no need to pay insurance for the next year. .

If a person dies, the Taiping will pay the compensation to the family members, and will pay 36 taels in 36 months.The mine owner will continue to pay the insurance for the next year.

If it is injured and disabled, Taiping will also compensate according to the degree of disability. As long as the mine has paid insurance, no matter how many people are killed or injured, Taiping will pay for it. Of course, if there is a fraudulent claim, it will be handled by the government. "

After listening to Qian Tongzhi, he felt that Zhizhou was really a talent for managing the world, how did he think of these things.In this way, the mine will definitely pay attention to the life of the miners, or the money paid every year is not a small number.Immediately hurry up and flatter.

"Zhizhou is really an amazing talent! Presumably those mine owners will be sympathetic to the miners, and dare not bully the miners at will."

Zhang Zongxian ignored Qian Tongzhi's flattery and continued:
"There will be staff on the Taiping to inspect the various mines from time to time, and if there are mine owners who cheat and hide the death or injury of the miners, the mines will be confiscated.

It is also necessary to inform the miners of this matter, and encourage miners to report mine owners for tax evasion and concealment of death or injury. Those who report tax evasion and tax evasion will be rewarded with three times the amount of tax evasion.

You write down what the official said, write it into an official document, and send it to every mine.Started in half a month. "

"The next official will do it right away. Zhizhou really loves the people like a son! It is a blessing for the people of Jiazhou."

After Qian Dianshi left, Zhang Zongxian told Yunong to set up a tax class as soon as possible, and the tax class will set up a card to collect taxes in the future.

Originally, Zhang Zongxian thought about establishing a work-related injury insurance system in a few years to allow time for the major workshops, and now he will try to run this insurance in the mining industry first.

After Qian notified the proposed account, Zhang Zongxian saw that there was no problem, and handed over the specific operation of the insurance business to Su'e.

Two days later, Qingjian County sent people to report again. More than 2 refugees had entered Qingjian County, and they were all with their families.

Rain Nong also came to report that last year's increase in wages had already made the poor farmers in Shaanxi and Shanxi worse.

In addition, there has been no rain for so long in the beginning of spring, and the local gentry and officials took the opportunity to lend usury to squeeze the people. Many people are unwilling to borrow usury, and I heard that people in Qingjian County eat meat during the New Year. The county magistrate here is still a rare good official. .

They all ran to Qingjian County to beg for food. Not only in the counties near Qingjian County, but also in Shanxi on the other side of the Yellow River, many people fled.

In addition, Yansui Town paid [-] shi of grain to Zhang Zongxian, which made the frontier soldiers who had not received much grain even more short of grain, and came to Qingjian County in groups to beg for food.

As more and more people fled, the normal life of the people in Qingjian County has been affected, and several conflicts have occurred.

Han Dianshi kept reporting to Zhizhou Yamen, asking how to deal with it and whether to deport the refugees. He was afraid that more and more refugees would gather, and someone would take the opportunity to make trouble and incite rebellion.

After listening to Yunong's report, Zhang Zongxian understood that these refugees had to be diverted to construction sites in various counties immediately.Otherwise, it will definitely be used by someone with a heart.

Immediately ordered Liangchen to lead the new army to maintain the order of the refugees, and strictly guard against people taking the opportunity to cause trouble. In addition, they accelerated the pace of recruiting new troops in various counties, and asked the Taiping to lend grain to Qingjian County to ensure that the porridge shed would have food for the refugees.

He also asked Qian Tongzhi to speed up the bidding process and disperse the refugees to the construction sites in other counties as soon as possible.

It was also arranged for Boren to set off immediately to receive Huangfu Chuanbao and Qingshuiying, where he recruited a large number of frontier troops to prevent them from wandering to other places.

Then he asked the people in the yamen to summon the old farmers to ask whether it has not rained yet, indicating that there will be a severe drought this year.

After arranging these things, Zhang Zongxian called Su'e to ask how much food the Taiping had stored.Su'e took out the account book and told Zhang Zongxian that there were currently 12 shi of grain stored on the Taiping.This includes the compensation of Yansui Town.

Although we have been purchasing grain, the price of grain has been rising in the past few years. We cannot collect much grain in nearby counties, and the consumption on the way to other provinces to buy food is too much.

The food is definitely not enough. The faster the development in the future, the more people will be separated from agricultural production, and the food consumption will inevitably increase significantly.

Just when Zhang Zongxian was upset about the issue of grain purchases.
