Daming: Distribution of Lingnan, you develop the Pearl River Delta?

Chapter 13: Reclaim the land and vigorously build infrastructure

Xiang Hai deserves to be the one with the longest seniority in the officialdom.

He understands things like this very well.

For those wealthy businessmen, no matter how much fabric you have, the sky is high and the road is far away, and the journey is still very tiring.

Even if there is still profit, it is hard money.

What's more, Lingnan has a bad reputation.

This is the deadliest.

No matter how greedy businessmen are for profit, they will cherish their lives.

So, it’s better to just show off King Qin’s signature!
This is doing business with the prince.

The emperor's son!
Are you coming?

Although life is important, this is also an opportunity.

The key is that if he doesn't do it right and rejects King Qin, the whole family may be dead.

Do you dare to bet your life with a prince?
Obviously not realistic.

Daotong left.

According to what Zhu Ping said, we drove all the way out of Lingnan.

On Zhu's side, he also officially started his infrastructure construction journey.

Otherwise, why spend so much money every day to support a population of 10,000+ in three counties?
Of course, these people are not all in the three counties.

There are also some small villages that were not involved in the fight, as well as villages around Panyu County that are relatively close to the county seat. These people were not involved in this large-scale fight.

These are the people Zhu Xi wants to use.

Among them, Wang Xiu and Luo Hang are considered to be the two with relatively rich net worth and relatively high reputation.

Zhu Xi asked Xiang Hai to gather all the village leaders together, but Wang Xiu was still guilty because he had helped others and intervened in this fight.

It can even be said that dozens of lives were indirectly killed.

In fact, it must be said that all villages are fundamentally unclean.

A clean person cannot be considered a village leader.

However, this Wang Xiu didn't know how to praise. Last time, he took the initiative to lead people to reject Zhu Ping's call, so this time he naturally became a typical example and was pushed out directly with shackles.

Zhu Ping even asked Professor Luo to detail Wang Xiu's crimes in front of many people, and then gave him a crime that implicated the whole family and killed them all!

The blood at the yamen door spattered several feet.

Since this large-scale brawl occurred, this was the first time a government official had killed anyone.

The corpses of Wang Xiu's family and the blood stains on the ground made everyone feel terrified. Then Zhu Xi asked Xiang Hai to bring out the village heads who participated in the fight but were detained one by one.

Seeing Wang Xiu's body on the ground and the blood stains, these former local snakes all softened when they looked at Zhu Xi.

Not soft or anything.

why?
There were many villagers from Lianhua Village present.

Among these people, many are of the same race as Wang Xiu.

They are more or less related to each other.

However, no one stood up and spoke for Wang Xiu's family.

No one even complained for Wang Xiu's family.

Not to mention, the people in Lianhua Village turned against Zhu Xi because of Wang Xiu's death.why is that?
Because in the past few days, the government has given the people at the bottom a great sense of trust.

They had enough to eat every day and built sheds for everyone to live in.

Although the conditions were very difficult, the government did not give up on anyone.

The attitude is there!
And, don't be afraid to spend money.

What's more, the people under Zhu Pang can also draw cakes.

The government is now starting to build roads and bridges. When the Construction Bureau is up and running, the first thing will be to show everyone housing. Of course, it will not be given to everyone for free. Some of your previous land will be collected as a down payment, and then a mortgage system will be launched...

What is a mortgage?
The professional-level talents under Zhu Ping who were incorporated into the Construction Bureau also explained it very clearly.

The so-called mortgage means that the government pays back part of the debt every month, which is not much. It is enough to pay one or two silver every month for ten consecutive years.

Of course, if you have money, you can return it to the government in advance.

But at this time, the villagers must be in trouble again... Where can they earn one tael of silver a month and hand it over to the government?
Then come to the Construction Bureau!
Is there a man in your family?

Going to work for the government, is it hard to earn two taels of silver a month?
No man?

also!

The government also plans to open workshops so that women can work and earn money. Even the elderly can go to the door, and those who can read can help look after the warehouse and count the goods... In short, as long as you don't lie down and are willing to work hard, you will definitely have a job. .

what?
You are a big man, you are still in your prime, but you don't want to go to the Construction Bureau?

Are you brave and want to take risks?
Okay!

The prince is raising you, and will let you go to sea in the future...

Of course, some people may ask, can they all accommodate so many people in such a small county?

All the people sent out by Zhu Ping explained this problem one by one.

In the future, communities will be built in the county!

Do you know what a community room is?

By then, just make sure everyone has a house to live in!
After the half-truth, half-lie, and half-deception, coupled with the fact that those talents were very eloquent, and the government really showed its attitude with practical actions, the reputation of Qin King Zhu Ping among the people also increased steadily.

At the same time, the government's credibility was also boosted all at once.

So Zhu Fang asked Professor Luo to list various crimes against Wang Xiu, and then killed Wang Xiu on the spot and implicated the whole family. No one in the audience said a word.

When the village leaders came here again and saw Zhu Ping, they all lost their original arrogance and knelt down to worship Zhu Ping.

At this point, the land and population of the three counties were all returned to the control of the government.

In other words, it was back under Zhu Xi's control.

Naturally, Zhu Ping didn't have a good attitude towards these people.

During the last meeting, Zhu Xi smiled at everyone, but this time his smile was gone. He also spoke in a discussion tone, but it must be implemented. Zhu Xi asked: "What are you all good at? Say it yourself." , whether it is business, farming, or other skills, even if you are good at killing people, tell me, otherwise how will I arrange you? However, you are all fine, I will build a workshop for you, and you will I give you mechanical technology, but these are not free. Do you know about the mortgage? Your land assets will all belong to the king from now on, do you understand?"

If anyone still didn't understand, Zhu Xi shook his head.

Then, all the professional-level talents under his command were dispatched to these villages to explain one by one.

Zhu Xi took a leisurely sip of tea and asked Xiang Hai, "Has the Construction Bureau started building roads and laying foundations?"

"Here we go!" Xiang Hai nodded.

Panyu County, which was originally smaller than a town in later generations, was now very densely populated and noisy, and people took action one after another.

You can even hear the sound of cannons!
Yes, gunpowder technology is something that Zhu Xi, who has a system, will naturally not let go.

This kind of thing is definitely indispensable in the infrastructure construction plan that is in full swing!
