Villager of Daming

Chapter 860 Who will stay when working abroad?

When Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned the railway track, the ministers nodded in support. They had already enjoyed the benefits of this railway track.

When they go out in the imperial city, there will be small trains, especially to carry some volumes. When there are no small trains, people will pick them up, or they will just carry them away.

Ever since I got the little train, I don't want to take an extra step, so I always look for a train when I go out.

When it's time to eat, you can take the train and go to a special canteen to eat. It's easy to get dirty when eating in your own office, so I built a special canteen.

People who are used to riding in cars are reluctant to walk and always feel tired. I think if people have trains, they can also... transport freight out. Yes, people can't leave casually.

"Your Majesty, I think we can recruit migrant mining workers from Tian Shao's land in the name of the imperial court to increase iron ore production so that..."

Wu Lin, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, suddenly said that he would operate other places according to the situation here in Yingtian Mansion. All the migrant workers who were going to come here this year have arrived.

Only the yamen can organize a team. If others want to come out on their own, no way will be opened to guide them. Unless it is for other things, like the old way of going out just looking for an excuse, it is forbidden.

At first, some people asked for guidance in the name of visiting relatives in other places. The place was really poor and they wanted to make money, so the Yamen turned a blind eye.

Now that everyone has been told to go out and walk together, if you don't want to follow the team and go alone, who's to blame if something happens? Why don't you want to follow everyone? Are you careful? Do you want to secretly deliver a message to the enemy?

We have reached all the places that we can visit in Daming, but we have not reached more places because the roads are too far and it is inconvenient to travel.

As soon as the migrant workers arrived in Yingtianfu, the labor pressure in Nanjing dropped instantly. Last month, many people were recruited to work in the industrial zone. The businessmen couldn't bear it anymore because the labor costs were too high.

With the arrival of a large number of laborers, the wages of ordinary laborers increased from sixty cents at the peak to thirty cents yesterday.

Migrant workers make money and business costs are low. The only people affected are local practitioners of the same type of work, who can no longer enjoy the 60 cents a day.

But they get another benefit, especially those who set up stalls. When more people come, some are willing to go shopping and eat snacks there.

Not all people can live frugally, and some teenagers aged sixteen or seventeen are at the age when they are full of curiosity about the world.

They are willing to spend money to try it, but they can't afford to go to a brothel, so they can still eat snacks.

If only a small amount of wages were given to them in each place and the rest was reserved for them, they could spend as much as they dared to earn.

Wu Lin wouldn't care about whether others eat snacks or not. He felt that since this method is good, it should be used in other places.

Bring people from remote mountainous areas to work in places with mines, work for half a year, save a sum of money, go home, and come out again after a while.

Making money by oneself also solved the infrastructure problem of the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, it would be too difficult to lay rails. The rails are very heavy, and a rail requires a lot of steel.

"What do you think?" After listening to Wu Lin's words, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the ministers, do they want to learn from Ying Tianfu's method?

Everyone looked at each other, what was there to say? Isn’t it great now? no problem.

So everyone nodded, as if we supported it.

"Where is Yi Chang?" Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of his question, Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to look at Li Chang.

"Your Majesty, Wu Shangshu, there is a problem in this matter. Are they forced to go back? If people go out to work and make more money, and then go back, they will not stay at home honestly, and they will have to run away.

Some even don't want to go back after they come out. It's different for a child who grew up in the mountains until he is fourteen or fifteen years old and goes to a state capital or county outside. How can people who have seen prosperity be willing to return to poverty? It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!

If they don't go back, who will build the local area? The already poor place will become even poorer. So will the people be moved out then?

If there is still work, are the people who come out married or not? If it's the former, will your wife follow you out? What to do if you have children? "

The head of the village raised a question that Hanhan had already said before, namely left-behind women and left-behind children.

There are many aspects involved in this matter. When men come out, will they have fewer children? Will women and children be bullied if they stay at home?

When people come out and make money, do they take money home or do they take things home? That's a mountainous area where money can't buy anything.

If you bring something back, what should you buy? What impact will it have on poor areas?

"Zhu Lichang, let's eat first and let us think about it." Zeng Lu spoke up, and this time he was serious.

There are too many things involved, but the most important thing is organizational ability. When migrant workers come to Yingtianfu, there is a special place to arrange it, and the person in charge is strong.

If you change the state capital, how can you ensure that they will have the same perfect management system as Yingtian Prefecture?

When something really went wrong, the people were fine at first, but in the end they were forced to rebel. Even if all the officials in the state capital were killed, the losses could not be restored.

"What you said is good, let's eat." Zhu Yuanzhang was at a loss for a while and decided to give everyone time.

The officials began to talk to their colleagues around them while eating, analyzing the situation. They worked very hard and wanted to participate. If they always followed the situation, their positions would be adjusted.

Adjustments have been very frequent in the past two years. Some people had dinner together before, and then the watches were sent back. When people left, new people put on the watches.

It doesn’t mean that you don’t make mistakes. Then just any clerk would be enough, so why do you need me?

Therefore, on a large scale, the court saw that there was nothing that officials needed to do. In fact, all ministries were making adjustments, and new measures and good methods must be put into use.

Even if there is a small problem, you must immediately think about why this problem occurs and how to solve it?

When the meal was almost finished, Zhu Yuanzhang put down his chopsticks, and the officials sat up and finished eating.

The maid came up to clear the table, and someone else put tea, snacks, and dried fruits on the table.

The whole place fell silent, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak, and no one else made a sound.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and looked at Hu Weiyong.

Before he could speak, Hu Weiyong stood up first: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"Yeah!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

“I think the most important issue is supervision. No matter which administrative department is used to organize migrant workers, a small number of people will have power. Power can be used to obtain money and sex.

Only with a sound regulatory system can organizations avoid problems. I think we should start with supervision, and then the local government can handle it easily.

Promulgated by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Personnel must also be involved, and the Ministry of Punishment is also indispensable. "

Hu Weiyong did not look at Zhu Yuanzhang when he spoke, but looked at the locations of the three departments.

Zhu Wentian, who had been silent next to him, his eyes lit up. This Hu Weiyong still has some tricks up his sleeve!
