Chapter 505: The Attraction of Shanhai County
Wang Lanling fought bandits and robbers in Dumu County for two months.
In fact, I talked about oil with the people of Dumu County.
The things in the field must be from the imperial court, and the conditions here in Dumu Town are difficult, and after Wang Lanling promised to send food in the future, the people here agreed to help Wang Lanling extract oil.
In order to establish the traffic between the two places as soon as possible, and in order to expand the flow of people, Wang Lanling is ready to build a road.
Roads were also being built before, but the main focus was on paper mills, machinery factories, ammunition factories and other places.
So far, there is still a shortage of people, the kind of people who are willing to work.
Even in Shanhai County, there are still many people who are unwilling to work and live a mess.
These people need education, they need ideological work, they need to make them realize that it is a shame to mess around!
As for the more serious troublemakers, of course, they had already been educated by the iron fist of the dictatorship, so how could Lord Wang allow these people to stand in his way?
The time has come to June, and it may be that there are big floods in various places or a gradually severe drought, so that the old emperor has forgotten about Wang Lanling, and there is nothing to do on his side anyway.
"County magistrate! You're finally back! ”
Gong Yueman waited at the intersection with the people, and after seeing Wang Lanling's team coming, he quickly walked over.
He was very emotional, there are obviously a lot of things here, but Wang Lanling spent more than two months to suppress the bandits, could it be that the robbers over there have eaten guns and medicine?
Wang Lanling rode on his horse and looked at the city in front of him.
"I haven't been back for a while, and there have been a lot of changes in the city."
Hearing Wang Lanling's words, Gong Yueman said: "Now a new power plant is being built, and the poles and copper wires are also being built. ”
Wang Lanling is not surprised, glass and other technologies have been very perfect, and the forging technology has also improved a lot in the past two years, and it is not surprising that electric light has been developed on the right path.
"That's good, you also told me in writing about the affairs in the county, but there are still things that can't be handled well?"
Wang Lanling didn't plan to go to the county office, and wanted to go back to the Xianshui Palace directly.
Although Wang Lanling has done a particularly good job in many things, he is still more willing to enjoy it, especially when it is not particularly necessary.
Gong Yueman said: "During your absence, many people have come to the county to live for a long time, including Tianmu County, Jinshan County, and other nearby counties. ”
"There are a lot of people who come here, and now dozens of people come every day, and there are more pioneers, like ordinary people, but there are very few."
"Most of it was because you helped teach Jiang Yushou a lesson, and I knew that you were different from other county officials, so I dragged my family here to take refuge."
"Last year's winter was cold, and many people froze to death at home, and now many people in the neighborhood are reluctant to stay in their hometowns."
"So far, more than three thousand people have been received."
People follow the crowd, and after knowing that others are living a good life here in Shanhai County, many people are actually willing to come.
It is true that there is a plot where it is difficult to leave the homeland, but the conditions on the side of Muzhou are very poor, and the bandits and the harsh taxes of the local consuls force the people to have no way out.
Wang Lanling's side is mainly his own paper mill and the rest of the factories are profitable, and there is basically no tax on the people, so more and more people are migrating here.
Safe and strong, very friendly to the people and people doing business, and there are better houses and eating and drinking environments, and it is also lively.
The attraction of Shanhai County to outsiders is gradually increasing, and it is constantly absorbing the population resources of the outside world.
"Well, we still have to pay attention to the food aspect." Wang Lanling nodded, now he doesn't need to do many things himself.
Gong Yueman quickly said: "In terms of grain, it is all bought with money, and several nearby counties, as well as Jinshan County, Muzhou Prefecture, and Tianmu County are willing to sell grain to us. ”
Wang Lanling knew very well that those people were selling grain, and said directly: "Don't buy grain from nearby counties, buy grain from Jinshan County and distant places, be more expensive, don't increase the burden of nearby counties." ”
There is no agricultural tax here in Shanhai County, but this is not the case in the surrounding area.
The surrounding counties were the territory of the pioneers, and the county lord levied a large amount of taxes on the people in the county.
There are very few people in Shanhai County who can save money at home, and most people pay taxes to pay food and service, so once the food is valuable, the surplus food in these people's homes will only become less and less!
"Yes!" Gong Yueman agreed, he knew that Wang Lanling said this, there must be a reason why he had to do it.
Wang Lanling said: "My commitment to Shanhai County is to be exempt from taxes for three years, and no tax will be collected within three years, whether it is people from Shanhai County or people who come to Shanhai County to do business from outside. ”
"Calculating the time, it will be more than a year, and you and the rest of the people will also visit the grassroots to understand the needs and profitability of merchants and farmers."
Taxation is the fundamental issue, and Gong Yue fully responded solemnly.
Wang Lanling saw that there was nothing else to do, so he said: "I'll go back and rest first, and tomorrow afternoon I will have a meeting at the county government to discuss the next step." ”
After talking to Gong Yueman, Wang Lanling asked his subordinates to disband, not only him, but the rest of them didn't go home for two months.
How to formulate commercial and agricultural taxes is a very troublesome matter for Wang Lanling, and this kind of thing must be investigated in accordance with the actual situation.
When I returned to the Xianshui Palace, it was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was not the hottest time yet, because there were fountains and waterfalls in the Xianshui Palace, so it was particularly refreshing in summer.
Zhao Wenrou, Lu Leia, Jin Ji Jinnu, Qing Tianai, Victoria, Minor, Xu Baifeng and others were already standing at the door waiting for Wang Lanling, and there were a few children together.
"Husband!"
"Sir!"
"Daddy"
Wang Lanling smiled and said, "Let's go into the house and talk." ”
A large family supported Wang Lanling into the house together, so it was not lively.
Wang Lanling felt that he had too many women and children, including the ten beautiful maids he met in Tongzhou and the women he met in Heishui County, adding up to almost twenty, and now his sons are almost ten.
There are also many daughters, and with the passage of time, there are still several women's big bellies, and A Luo is no longer Wang Lanling's only daughter.
In more than ten years, after Wang Lanling became his grandfather, his Wang family became a big family.
Fifty years later, Wang Lanling's descendants may exceed a few hundred.
Sixty years later, it is estimated that there will be several thousand.
After looking around at his wife and children, Wang Lanling felt that the production technology of rubber needed to be improved, and he should pay attention to it.
"Husband, the Holy One asked you to write a poem, do you have any arrangements?"
"There is also a holy reward at the beginning of spring, ask when you will go to Muzhou Mansion to receive the reward."
Zhao Wenrou talked about business, when Wang Lanling was not there, the imperial court sent people to urge him several times, but they all pushed it off on the grounds that Wang Lanling was not at home.
The two envoys have been trapped for almost half a year, and they can't go back after completing their errands, and they are getting more and more anxious these days.
"It's okay, I've been busy these past few days, I just came back from the bandits, so I'll rest for a few days before I go."
Wang Lanling ate the meal prepared in the kitchen and said casually.
It is impossible to go, Wang Lanling will not go to Muzhou Mansion in the past few years.
Drag, just drag hard!
