Chapter 1055: Settle the People
More than 200,000 people were "blocked" by merchants and people for several hours, and at night, the internal guards directly placed people here temporarily.
Within a few hours, tens of thousands of people were recruited by businessmen to quell this recruitment frenzy, and the rest of the things were left to the internal guards to worry about.
To ensure the resettlement of the people, the city guard government mobilized a large number of tents to temporarily settle the people, and in order to speed up the resettlement in the open space in the new urban area, vanguard soldiers were dispatched to help set up tents.
The vacant land on the outskirts of the new city has long been sorted out for the temporary resettlement of the people, and the neat tents are all built according to the fixed distance, and from a distance they are all built according to the planning of the city's houses.
It was already daylight the next day after the people of the city guard had settled the people properly, and the resettlement of more than 200,000 people was not an easy task, so 100,000 vanguard soldiers were dispatched in order to quickly settle these people.
Setting up tents is what they are good at, and the main time is spent on statistics and distribution, which is allocated by the family, and a family is allocated a tent.
For example, singles without family members are all directly screened out and then distributed according to the pattern of several people and one tent.
Then there are two, three, four, etc., and if there are more children in the family, more tents will be allocated.
It took a night to complete the work, and those who were taken away needed to be recounted, all of which needed to be cooperated by the workshop manager.
Youzhou has an additional population of 300,000, and the resettlement is only temporary, so the staff of the city guard government came to make up the household registration the next day.
This will take too long, it will take some time, and Wei Li, the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce, also began to explain to the businessmen at this time that the recruitment of workers should be carried out in accordance with the procedures to avoid the occurrence of scrambles.
The merchants are all humbly accepting, and the workshops that compete for people have already recruited a lot of people, anyway, they have people, and the recruitment of workers in the future can be carried out slowly.
It's really first-come, first-served, and those who didn't grab it in advance could only follow the rules, but more than 200,000 people were there and believed that this time they could solve the problem of shortage of workers.
On the third day, the Chamber of Commerce held a job fair in the new town, and anyone who wanted to work could come and apply.
In front of the tent area in the new city, hundreds of merchants have set up a table according to the regulations, and the first thing applicants can see is the advertisement made by the businessmen in front of and behind the table.
A variety of publicity methods, such as introducing workshops and prescribing conditions, are publicized through static displays.
The banners made of cloth are printed with the names of the different workshops, and anyway, the advertisements of the shops at the recruitment site basically account for the whole thing.
The business promoter placed the advertisement, and the fame of the shops was immediately revealed, and the shops spent a lot of money on these advertisements.
The effect is naturally good, but many of them don't know how to read, and there will be people on the side to help read aloud, and the part-time propaganda person earns 30 wen a day, and he earns a lot of money.
Li De's way of propaganda is the simultaneous sound of film and television, the only difference is that the font on those banners will not change automatically.
The job fair lasted for a month, and the businessmen were recruiting, and he was also recruiting workers for the engineering team under the name of the city guard, and there were already thousands of people conducting construction training.
While learning and practicing, they are doing the construction of houses in the new urban area, and a large number of part-time laborers recruited can receive five cents a day for the construction period, the key is to include three meals, which solves the problem of employment for some people.
After a few months, the remaining people began to have work thanks to the efforts of the city guards, most of whom were directly engaged in the distribution of farm work, and the land did not belong to them, but they were allowed to cultivate until the harvest and only needed to pay most of the grain.
According to the requirements of farming, if the newly settled people who have reached the end of five years of cultivation can purchase the ownership of the land and cultivate the land, the land is still owned by the city guard, but there is no rent for the grain paid after spending money to buy it, which means that they have obtained more grain every year and their living conditions will be better.
Youzhou is like this, there is no such thing as getting something for nothing, since it can't catch up with the previous policy, then it can only be like this.
If you want to continue farming, you can buy it, it will be more profitable, there will be more harvest, and if you don't want to continue farming, you don't need to cultivate the fields.
Therefore, it is not true that you can live a good life when you arrive in Youzhou, and it takes labor to create a good life.
The tent area in the new city has become a unique landscape in Youzhou, and more than 100,000 tents are not something that anyone can hold.
For the tents, the tent workshop in Youzhou made a lot of money this time, because the people are now using the tents of the vanguards, and they re-purchased them in order to ensure that the vanguards were not affected.
The merchant who did the tent business made him a well-known wealthy merchant in Youzhou City at once.
The millions spent were all from three months' income from fried chicken and beer, otherwise the castle guard would not have that much liquidity.
However, after the arrival of 300,000 people, the business of many workshops improved, and the demand increased naturally made money.
"Governor, 300,000 people have completed the temporary resettlement task, the recruitment is very smooth, and eighty percent of the people have arranged jobs, and there is still a big problem with housing."
"The new city is being built, so they can only wait."
Li De has no choice about this, the houses are all to be built one by one, and it is useless to be in a hurry.
300,000 people have already arrived in Youzhou, and as long as there is enough time, any problem can be solved.
In the palace of Chang'an City, Li Yuan was listening to a report without a tongue, but he had been paying attention to the affairs of 300,000 people.
"Put 300,000 people in tents." Li Yuan muttered that he didn't mean to laugh, but just lamented that more than 100,000 tents would be very disadvantageous to them if they were used for marching.
sighed even more at Youzhou's materials, if it goes on like this, Tang Guo is really not as good as Youzhou, Li Yuan can think of this, which shows that as a talented emperor, he really has to look at people.
"It seems that the Tang State must trade with Youzhou in order to obtain greater benefits." Li Yuan muttered.
He has been thinking about this matter for a long time and has been stimulated by his son Li Shimin, to say that Wagang City has changed very much recently, and there are no cement orders and bicycle orders.
The root of the stimulus to Li Yuan is that the family funds he has accumulated for most of his life have all been put into it since he recruited 600,000 soldiers and horses.
Looking at Wagang City, there are now 600,000 soldiers and horses, and they are originally very short of money, but since the resumption of commercial cooperation with Youzhou, they have already calculated the money earned through the two projects in three years, and the tax revenue of the Tang Kingdom for ten years.
