Traveling through the Three Kingdoms: She brings unlimited supplies to build infrastructure

Chapter 185 Economy
Changes in a place cannot be hidden from the eyes of others.

Even in the Han Dynasty when transportation was inconvenient, during this period, changes in Lulong County gradually radiated to the surrounding areas.

In particular, the refugees in Qian'an, Linyu and other counties have begun to move to Lulong County on a small scale under the instigation of the rangers.

There is work to do and food to eat in Lulong.

Such news spread among the caravans of members of the chamber of commerce, mainly the Guan family, and among the wandering knights who collected money from them in western Liaoning.

Once the flow of refugees to Lulong is opened, it will never be stopped.

In response to this tendency, Linyu and other landowner officials just went to the signaling branch and handed the complaint documents to the desk of the prefect's mansion.

But Gongsun Jing didn't pay much attention to it. His father Gongsun Jing didn't care, so why should he bother.

In addition, his niece suddenly had a sudden enlightenment or something, but Qingyi Wine, which had been sold for tens of thousands of gold in Guzhu Village, generously sent him a cart.

I also came to Xinxin and there was still some left after I ran out, so I was definitely not stingy.

There was no response from the direction of the Prefect's Mansion, and the others did not make much move.

These refugees, who stay in the county and do not want to be a shelter for everyone, are instead an unstable burden.

Sitting and watching them starve to death will not look good in terms of political performance and reputation. It is better to let these burdens go to Lulong.

Although the arrival of more refugees has made Lulong County officials even busier, the construction sites blooming all over the county and Lulongsai have indeed boosted economic prosperity.

There are hundreds of workers at a city wall construction site.

Surrounding the construction site, surrounded by hundreds of workers, stewards, and clerks, there are countless job opportunities.

On the premise of ensuring wages, workers will have spending money at hand and they will consume.

In order to stimulate the economy, workers in Lulong County are not as careful about food and housing as they are in Lulongsai.

Therefore, there are gradually some small restaurants around each construction site. The small restaurants sell a staple food called steamed buns and some side dishes, and the business is good.

Therefore, the employment of cooks, the operation of water mills and the sales of farm vegetable fields extended from restaurants.

There are also some cheap little restaurants with a bowl of wine and a pot of water next to the construction site for leisure.

There is also a hot spring guesthouse that provides a large pool for bathing. Although the dirty water and large public baths make the environment worrying.

But there are still families who live far away, or single men, who choose to move in after weighing the pros and cons.

One is cheap and comfortable, and the other is convenient.

A hot spring guest house can provide several job opportunities such as boilermaker and waitress.

Even old women in poor health can find a job here as sweeping, mending or doing laundry.

Not to mention the wages and goods that workers take home, which is a new round of consumption.

All kinds of things are difficult for others to see so deeply.

But these changes are indeed happening and are subtly changing the lives of residents in Lulong County.Lulong County, with the support and promotion of various industries from the county government and the government-run chamber of commerce, gradually showed a busy scene from point to point.

Those who joined the Chamber of Commerce early had already made their first pot of gold within the established framework.

A caravan at the Lulong County Weaving Workshop received three cartloads of the most popular fine grass cloth in summer with cloth tickets stamped by the county government chamber of commerce.

The fabrics coming out of the Lulong Weaving Workshop are all top-grade with fine stitching and smoothness, but the purchase price is low, making them very popular goods.

The steward said goodbye to the reception in the mansion in front of the weaving workshop. Although he was happy about the profits that the three carts of fine grass cloth would bring, he was also a little dissatisfied.

The share of votes given to them by the county government chamber of commerce was too small.

These ticket distribution shares are determined according to the chamber of commerce membership level. If their level contribution is low, they will naturally receive a smaller share.

Even if you express your willingness to increase the handling fee, you cannot receive one more cloth ticket.

While the steward was making arrangements to clear the way for the convoy behind him, he was thinking about going back to persuade the head of the family.

Send more laborers to Lulongsai or send low-income craftsmen to Lulong to increase the contribution to the chamber of commerce and receive more cloth and wine tickets.

It's not that they didn't think of bribery, or simply stealing the drawings of the weaving mill's looms.

However, the pickets in the county are extremely strict, and the last chamber of commerce steward and petty official who dared to accept bribes has been hung up on the wall of Lulong County.

The last person who dared to pay bribes and keep secrets had his fortress busted and his family was given the education and reform in the Luronse labor camp.

In particular, the county has been recruiting troops recently, and with the strong troops stationed in the Lulongsai military camp, no one currently dares to twist the tiger's beard and cause trouble.

A large amount of high-quality fine grass cloth from Lulong County has flowed into the market. With better quality and the same or lower price, in a short period of time, the original cloth market has been disrupted.

Several households that previously controlled a large number of weavers and silk-crown households and were unwilling to join the chamber of commerce have expressed their willingness to return their weavers to the officials of Lulong County in order to find a compromise.

Only a few families are still holding on.

Thinking of this, the steward couldn't help but sigh.

Even if these families survive the summer, they will surely bow in the winter.

He once attended an investment promotion exhibition held by the Chamber of Commerce with his family owner, where a thing called cotton cloth was displayed.

When winter comes, when this kind of thing appears, the burlap and silk stockings in most people's homes will be worthless.

The steward looked up again at the fleet of vehicles waiting to haul goods, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, times have changed!
While feeling confused, he passed by a group of people who had just entered the city.

This group of people was covered in dust, and it was obvious that they had come from a distance.

Sitting on an oxcart in the middle was a middle-aged scribe with a bold posture. He had a pot of wine bought on the roadside in his hand, his face was reddish, and he was looking around curiously.

"What a great place!" he said with a loud burp.

(It’s not a particularly famous person, so there’s no need to guess.)
