Chapter 312: Changes in Fang County
That night, Wu Sixi and Hu Sangui returned to the tribe, and ushered in the crazy questions of the clansmen, all about work, when they heard the news that Li Zhou agreed, they jumped up with excitement and roared loudly.
After being happy for less than a quarter of an hour, they said that they were going to work long hours, and they couldn't go home normally, but they could do it for a few days a month, and they had to be outside at other times, and their excitement dimmed and they were no longer so happy.
I went out for a month and couldn't go home, what should I do if something happened to my family? There is not enough food, they are not at home, what about the elderly, children, wives and others at home? Let them starve for so many days?
No, they can't do this, but when Wu Sixi and Hu Sangui said that they could get their wages and food in advance, their gloomy hearts settled down a little, so it was a little better, with food, the family didn't have to worry about being hungry, and their lives were secure.
But a month is still a long time, they haven't tried to be outside for so long, at most only a few days, they are outside for a long time, and they are very worried, and many clansmen begin to hesitate, to go or not to go?
Finally, I thought about it, the pros outweigh the disadvantages, going to work can make my family's life better, the worry in my heart dissipated with the wind, and I agreed to go, after all, at this time, the family doesn't need them much, and it's good to go out to work, I can't see other people's families have meat to eat, and their own families are still drinking porridge.
Comparing psychology together, many people followed, except for a few people who could not go, they all agreed, according to the rules, the next day Li Zhou's people came to pick them up, the two tribes went together, under the eyes of Hu Sangui and Wu Sixi, sent the clansmen away, the carriage traveled, and started a new journey.
This matter has come to an end for the time being, and the affairs of ethnic minorities have been temporarily alleviated, and there is no longer as hostility and rejection as before.
After all these were done, Li Zhou chatted with the patriarchs of the three ethnic groups about their clothing, some characteristics of ethnic minorities, special products, as well as those special jewelry, dresses, etc., and specially set aside a store in Fang County for them, and did not charge them rent for the first three months, and gradually made up for it later, which was regarded as taking care of them.
After hearing this, several people were very happy, this is a great opportunity, almost about to bow down, after these detailed things are explained, so that these ethnic minorities have solved the temporary problem of poverty, have income, the elderly, children, women at home can earn silver with their own labor, although not much, but also make a small contribution to the family.
Li Zhou has considered a lot of things, try to take care of them, the Tang people don't need him to take care of them, there is a yamen, and those Tang people are in groups, something happens, there is also a care, these ethnic minorities can't do it, go to a new place, don't be bullied, it's okay, don't say stand firm, it can be said that Li Zhou did this out of selfishness.
But no matter what, it's good for everyone, it's really good for you and me, it's really good, everyone is good.
After everything was arranged, these ethnic minorities moved quickly, and within a few days they had goods, and they went to the shops to sell them, and they took care of them by themselves, whether they made money or lost money, Li Zhou didn't care, he had already given enough, which made Lan Shan and Lan Tian respect Li Zhou even more, and they didn't dare to disobey his orders, otherwise, they would not have the face to face the clansmen and their father.
Everything was done, the time soon entered July and August, the hot summer accompanied the carriage gurgling, regularly driving on the special streets, the carriage has a carriage road, the pedestrian has a pedestrian road, to some places where there are many people, the carriage can not enter, can only go around the road, there is a special road to provide, it can be said that it is carried out in an orderly manner.
There are many businessmen, especially people from ethnic minorities, they wear strange costumes, walk around among the Tang people, the Tang people are very harmonious, see familiar people, greet warmly, and those who have not seen each other for a long time will go together to drink, drink tea, and talk about the recent situation of everyone.
There are a lot of snack bars on both sides of the road, although it can not be compared with Chang'an, Luoyang and other places, but in the remote places, it is a better county, and people from several other counties like to come here, because it has gradually become the center of the surrounding area, the center of Luling.
There are even people who come here from afar, admiring the rice wine here, in July and August, a month's time, people gradually know one thing, rice wine, very delicious wine, the degree is very high, very exciting, mellow and sweet, and there is a special taste when you drink it.
Many people come here to drink a sip of pure rice wine, it is said that this is the place where rice wine is made, it is much cheaper, not far from thousands of miles to come here, enter the close look, and be stunned by the county seat in front of you, is this still a remote town?
The road is clean, there is no foul smell, there is no muddy water staining the ground, clean and comfortable, very regular, looking at the town that does not look chaotic, compared with the bustling city of Chang'an, there is more of a quiet and harmonious, regular and smiling taste.
"This is Fang County? Lulingfang County? ”
A young man who just came here asked the groom, and I have to say that there is another industry here, the groom, the professional groom, drives from the road, pays a little toll, rents a carriage from the yamen, and takes people to visit Fang County, or the entire Luling, as long as the road is open, there is a place for them to appear.
Soliciting customers from other counties, rushing to this side, soliciting customers from this side, rushing to the other side, the price is given by the official at a suitable price, up and down, how much you can earn, it all depends on your skills, however, there is one thing that is prohibited, that is, it cannot exceed the range given by the official, which is an iron order.
No one disobeys, because if you are caught, you don't want to do it in this industry in the future, the yamen directly pulls you into the blacklist, not only in Fang County, but in the entire Luling, as long as it is a place on the road, you are not allowed to appear, unless you take the dirt road.
"This son is the first time to come to Fang County, right?"
The groom greeted him cordially, the boy nodded, and the groom began to introduce him, and said proudly: "This son doesn't know, Fang County can have such prosperity today, thanks to one person, if it weren't for him, this place would not be so prosperous, and we would not have the current life." ”
Speaking of that person, his eyes were full of respect, admiration, and pride, Brother Gongzi was puzzled, what kind of person has such great energy, can make a remote town rejuvenate in a short period of time, although it is still a small city, it cannot be compared to a big city, but it is also very powerful.
From the roads on both sides, the construction of the city walls, and everything inside, the unified houses, shops, and goods are dazzling, and there is an endless stream of carriages, many of which are the same as the carriage he sits, with the same signs on them, and a few are private carriages, which come inside, and do not enter the sidewalk, but stop and turn around, and those private carriages are guided by the people of the government to another road.
In addition to having special people to command, patrol, and signs, so that people know where this is, which street, and what is over there, in case they get lost, clear roads, and feelings of serving the people, so that a person who comes here for the first time feels that this is a good place, and you can imagine how good it is.
"That person? Who is that person? ”
Ma Fu said stupidly: "That person is called Young Master, I don't know what he called, everyone calls him Young Master, you know who that person is when you see a person who looks like a son, everyone here knows him, you can't provoke him, otherwise, the people here will spit on you to death." ”
Brother Gongzi heard something unusual from the horseman's laughing words, that is, that Brother Gongzi is not very old, about the same as him, and the prestige of that Brother Gongzi here is very high, almost everyone knows him, and he can't offend him, so he added a sentence to himself.
"Oh, his name is young master, so I wonder if my husband can tell me where he lives?"
The groom looked at him seriously, didn't speak, and bowed his head and said, "This boy, if you don't ask this kind of question in the future, it's easy to get into trouble." ”
The old man didn't answer, took the silver, and left directly, not even a tip, the exact amount, no more, no less, Brother Gongzi looked at the copper coins found in his hand, and smiled embarrassedly.
If you have money, you don't want it, what happened to the people here? Silly or dumb?
Until he saw a plaque in the distance with some price control written on it, such as how much to charge for a trip, giving a range, which cannot be exceeded, nor can it be low, if it is low, it will lose money, and if it is more, it will exceed the range, so as to prevent vicious competition and monopoly.
These data are compiled according to the local situation, different from month to month, not much turbulence, everyone has a bottom in their hearts, these are for pedestrians, as well as people who come here for the first time, so as not to be deceived.
"What a miracle city!"
Brother Gongzi sighed, there are no surprises in the world, and there is such a thing, even such a small number has been given, it is clear and clear, you can't deceive people if you want to, and there are many punishment regulations on it, which makes people shudder.
But on the whole, these regulations are not useless, to the local people to bring a lot of business opportunities, more opportunities to make money, life, consumption is naturally high, consumption is high, the economy of the whole city will rise, forming a cycle, everyone has money, why not prosperous here.
This boy looked at it, fell into the army of the crowd, turned into one of them, and even more, came from thousands of miles away, just to find a business opportunity, some are small families, some are alone, and some have heard about the situation here and want to see it.
As a result, Fang County has entered a period of rapid development, which is unstoppable and magnificent.
