Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 344

The clan elders supported by the aristocratic family really didn't eat for nothing, and they quickly gave some useful suggestions.

In the early morning of the next day, in some of the places with the densest crowds in Shanyang City, recruitment notices from the Wang family and the Cui family appeared. It is not lower than ordinary workers working in major workshops. Even the simplest farmers who take care of the fields have a monthly salary of [-] yuan, and they also take care of two meals a day and accommodation, and will sign an employment agreement. The maximum labor time is five hours, there are three days of bathing every month, and the labor cooperation can be terminated by reporting one month in advance, etc.

These recruitment notices are like putting a few deep-fried dough sticks into the lively big oil pan in Shanyang, which immediately makes the oil in the oil pan boil and rush towards the deep-fried dough sticks.

Many people who originally wanted to come to Shanyang to watch the excitement were attracted by these job advertisements. They have food and housing, and a job with a monthly salary of [-] Wen, even in Guanzhong, is considered a rare good job. In Shanyang, there is still a need to hang up recruitment notices all over the street to recruit?

These outsiders finally realized something. Perhaps, they should pay attention to other things besides watching the excitement when they came to Shanyang. Therefore, they found out the salary levels of the workers in the major workshops in Shanyang, or in other words, Sun Xiangfu knew. After the Wang family and the Cui family recruited workers, they were released on purpose.

It turns out that in the major workshops in Shanyang, ordinary workers can get a salary of more than 1000 yuan a month, and those skilled workers and senior technical workers can get a monthly salary of two or three yuan.

No wonder they usually eat kebabs on the street, beef noodle soup and other foods, and they dress so decently. It turns out that their income is high!
Now, many migrants are not calm anymore, and the idea of ​​staying in Shanyang to find a job is formed in their hearts. Even those who are not ready now want to bring this news back to their hometown and let their hometown Those poor fellow villagers came to Shanyang with them to find a job and get rid of poverty and become rich.

In the living room of the Lu Mansion, Lu Wenzhong, who was reported by his subordinates, had a very bad face. Yesterday, after learning that Sun Xiangfu had given the cultivation techniques of cauliflower and blueberries to the Wang family and the Cui family, he urgently sought out the elders of the clan. It's been discussed.

The result of the discussion is that he should try his best to establish a good relationship with Sun Xiangfu. Even if he can't get any agricultural project cooperation from him, he must ensure that they will use methods similar to obtaining spice planting technology to obtain planting methods for other crops in the future. At that time, Sun Xiangfu could not favor the Wang family or the Cui family.

However, the situation has changed now. The Wang family and the Cui family offered generous conditions to recruit young and strong laborers on the street. It is said that they recruited over a thousand people in one morning. With tens of thousands recruited, doesn't it mean that the fields that would have taken them three years to develop can be fully developed in one year this year?
After all, it is only August now, and there is still one or two months before the snow will fall in the Northland. Recruiting tens of thousands of people is enough to help them reclaim more than hundreds of thousands of acres of land during this time. Start from the wasteland, just plow the land and sow seeds.

With millions of acres of land, how big the output will be in two years, Lu Wenzhong can use his butt to know, but he didn't expect that Sun Zhengming's activity of holding a military competition would cause such a big change in Beidi, which will further Accelerated the development of the Northland.

But now, he doesn't want to be one step behind Wang and Cui, because, step by step, step by step, once Wang and Cui complete the development of the field ahead of schedule, they will be free to cooperate with Sun Zhengming to develop another Project, then, in this process, the gap between their Lu family and Wang Cui's family has become wider and wider.

"We also recruit workers and offer better conditions than the Wang family and the Cui family. If there is a gap between us and them in terms of labor force, then no matter what projects we do in the future, we will have a gap with them." Old Lu Yi suggested.

"However, they are recruiting workers to grow new crops like cauliflower and blueberries. Why do we recruit people here?" Lu Wenzhong said depressed.

"Even if there are no new crop species, it's good to use it to reclaim the fields! The most important thing is to prevent the two of them from gathering their labor. In this way, we will be completely behind by then, and we will not be able to catch up if we want to. And as long as We have recruited enough people now, and when the time comes, we will use the method we used when growing spices to get their planting techniques over, then they will not gain much more advantage than us."

As soon as Lu Yi said this, the rest of the elders of the Lu family also deeply believed that there is no coincidence in agricultural competition. Whoever has more land and more labor will inevitably produce more in the end.

Of course, this refers to the old days, on cauliflower and blueberries, but not necessarily.

After getting the opinion of the elders' association, Lu Wenzhong immediately arranged for his subordinates to carry out the execution, and the other families with principals in Shanyang, such as the Cui family in Boling, the Li family in Zhaojun, and the Li family in Longxi, also followed suit.

Then, a strange scene appeared.

On all the streets in Shanyang City, dozens of recruitment notice boards written in red paper were held up high by the servants of each family. The people holding the boards were like business peddlers, constantly urging people to come over to apply for the job, and it was only one morning. At that time, the monthly salary changed from [-] Wen to [-] Wen.

Li Shimin, who was having lunch at Sun's Mansion, looked at Sun Xiangfu who came to report the situation, and smiled as expected, "This is your real intention of holding this military competition in Shanyang!"

"Hehe, Your Majesty's eyes are as bright as a torch. Naturally, I can't hide this careful thought from your Majesty. With the addition of these foreign labor forces, the development of the Northland will be faster. The development of the surrounding [-] miles will be completed within two years. In four years, the development of all the second-class land will be completed, and in about five years, Shangqi City and Ulan City will be completely built, and there will be no problem." Sun Xiangfu first flattered, and then looked at himself. Speak out the prospect of arrival.

"It's just as easy as you said. The few of them have only recruited 2 to [-] people. Even if they have played a positive role in the development of the Northland, they will not be as big as you said. According to what I know You know, the second type of land is eight hundred miles east of Shanyang, and this year, only a little bit has been developed!" Li Shimin said leisurely.

"This is not an exaggeration to say that Shanyang's military competition is just an introduction to the whole thing. Its biggest role is to make a small number of foreigners familiar with Shanyang, and to introduce some of Shanyang's The news has been passed on, and I believe that after the big competition is over, people will come to Shanyang to work one after another, because the wages and benefits offered by everyone this morning are not available in any other place in Datang , including Chang'an, so..."

All right!The tide of going north to work that Sun Xiangfu conceived is really coming soon, because the conditions are getting more and more mature.

First of all, Guanzhong, the most populous city, has already implemented the citizenship system, and millions of people in Guanzhong can travel freely, and then, the northern region, or the central Jingxiang area, will also implement the citizenship system, so, basically It means that a large part of the population of Datang can freely choose to go out to work.

Common people are not stupid, there are easier and higher paying jobs, why don't they do it?Especially in those areas where the land output is still at a low level, the monthly salary is one thousand and several hundreds of yuan, but they can't even imagine the high salary. Moreover, what they do is just the farming work they usually do. Who would not be tempted? ?

Such a picture is actually not difficult to imagine. Li Shimin only needs to do a little brainstorming to know the result of what Sun Xiangfu said. After that, he no longer thinks the food on the table is delicious, because he is a smart person and wants to more.

It took a long time for Li Shimin to express his worries, "Zhengming, when we govern, we must look at the whole country. We can't just run the Northland, while other places continue to be impoverished."

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu said with a smile, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. As long as the effect of our administration is to make the people rich, it doesn't matter whether he is rich in the south or in the north. When they become rich, they will have more money to improve their basic necessities of life, we just need to give them a boost at the right time and from a general direction.”

There is nothing wrong with Sun Xiangfu's statement. Li Shimin can't find a reason to refute it. Just like what Sun Xiangfu said before, the country collects taxes from Guanzhong and Beidi. In fact, all they receive is money. Why bother? Wonder where you got it from!Some income is the key.

Of course, bringing these people together in Shanyang, which is economically developed, Sun Xiangfu naturally has a deeper meaning. When those people adapt to Shanyang's faster-paced life and more advanced production technology, for the original backwardness , will become more and more dissatisfied. This, to a certain extent, will in turn promote the country and meet their higher quality of life needs.

There are also examples of this in later generations. In Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, the wealthy people have achieved prosperity. When they returned to their hometowns, they were not satisfied with their dilapidated houses, so they all built buildings. They were not satisfied with the muddy roads. Then, Concrete rural roads appeared. Not satisfied with going home too slowly, expressways, railways, and even high-speed rails all appeared.

At this time, the country only needs to be pushed forward by the needs of the people, and there will be no major mistakes.

What the ancients lacked was the cognition in these general directions. Due to the limitations of history, they did not know what was good and what was better. Before they lived in brick houses, they only thought that it would be good to live in mud and grass shacks. Yes, from grass and wood shacks to wooden houses, then to brick houses and high-rise buildings, it may take thousands of years to develop slowly according to the historical track.

Sun Xiangfu directly allows them to quickly transition to a higher level. When people's goals become higher, then their achievements will be higher.

This is the same as some people in poor countries in later generations who went to developed countries for inspection and then went back, and immediately knew where they should make changes, because they knew what is good at that time.

As a person of this era, no matter how great he is, Li Shimin cannot know what Sun Xiangfu, a later generation, is thinking. He said, "Then have you ever thought about what the family will do next?"

Sun Xiangfu nodded and replied, "Of course I thought about it. They spent too much money to recruit hired workers, and they will definitely regret it afterwards. It is inevitable to find various ways to exploit these hired workers. Therefore, our labor protection law in the North will soon will be carried out."

"Labor Protection Law?"

This new term made Li Shimin stunned again.

When Sun Xiangfu said this term, he already thought that he would be confused with Li Shimin, so he told Li Shimin his original intention and some general regulations for establishing the labor protection law, and wanted to make those generations exploited by the family If all serfs are converted into hired labor so that they will no longer be exploited, then labor protection laws must be introduced.

After listening to Sun Xiangfu's explanation of the Labor Protection Law, Li Shimin began to doubt his own wisdom. Why didn't he think of such a good way!

Sun Zhengming's methods of dealing with the aristocratic family are really interlocking, and he feels a little out of step with the rhythm. It seems that the support for him can be increased appropriately, and maybe he will be able to support him in a few years. Finally, the problem of the aristocratic family is completely resolved.
