The clan elders supported by the family really didn't eat rice, and they quickly gave some useful suggestions.

Early the next morning, in Shanyang City, some of the most densely populated places, there were recruitment notices for the Wang family and the Cui family, the terms and conditions, and the recruitment notices of the major workshops in Shanyang earlier, the salary is not lower than the ordinary workers working in the major workshops, even the simplest farmers who take care of the fields, the monthly salary is 1,200 Wen, and they are also in charge of two meals a day and accommodation, and will sign an employment agreement, a day of labor does not exceed five hours, there are three days of bathing every month, report one month in advance, Labor cooperation can be terminated, and so on.

These job postings are like putting a few fritters into the lively big oil pot of Shanyang, which suddenly makes the oil in the oil pot boil and rush to the fritters.

Many people who originally just wanted to come to Shanyang to see the excitement were attracted by these job postings, with food and lodging, and a monthly salary of 1,200 yuan, even if it was in Guanzhong, it was a rare good job.

These outsiders finally realized something, perhaps, in addition to watching the excitement in Shanyang, they should also pay attention to something else, so the salary level of the workers in Shanyang's major workshops was discovered by them, or rather, Sun Xiangfu deliberately let people out after knowing the recruitment of the Wang family and the Cui family.

It turns out that in the major workshops in Shanyang, ordinary workers can get a salary of more than 1,000 yuan every month, and those who are skilled and senior technical workers get a monthly salary of two or three times, abound.

No wonder they usually eat kebabs on the street, beef noodle soup and other foods, and they are dressed so decently, it turns out that they have a high income!

At this time, many immigrants are not calm, and the idea of staying in Shanyang to find a job is generated in their hearts, even those who are not ready at the moment want to bring the news back to their hometown, so that those poor fellow villagers in their hometown can come to Shanyang with them to make a living, get rid of poverty and become rich.

In the living room of the Lu Mansion, Lu Wenzhong, who had received a report from his subordinates, had a very bad face, yesterday, after learning that Sun Xiangfu had given the planting technology of cauliflower and blueberries to the Wang family and the Cui family, he urgently discussed with the people of the clan elders' association.

The result of the discussion was that he should try his best to have a good relationship with Sun Xiangfu, even if he couldn't get any cooperation in agricultural projects from him, he should ensure that in the future, when they used similar means to obtain spice planting technology and obtain planting methods for other crops, Sun Xiangfu would not be biased towards the Wang family or the Cui family.

However, now there is a new change in the situation, the Wang family and the Cui family at the same time opened favorable conditions to recruit young and strong laborers on the street, it is said that in one morning, they recruited more than 1,000 people, if they recruited tens of thousands, does not mean that they would have taken three years to develop the fields, this year can be all developed?

After all, it's only August, and there is still a month or two before it snows in the north, so recruiting tens of thousands of people is enough to help them reclaim more than 100,000 acres of fields during this time, and in the spring of next year, they don't need to start from the wasteland, just cultivate the land and sow it directly.

Millions of acres of land, how big the output is in two years, Lu Wenzhong knew with his ass, but he didn't expect that Sun Zhengming's activity of engaging in an all-army competition would actually make such a big variable in the north, which would further accelerate the development of the north.

And now, he doesn't want to be one step behind the Wang family and the Cui family, because, one step is slow, one step is slow, once the Wang family and the Cui family complete the development of the field in advance, they can free up their hands to cooperate with Sun Zhengming to develop another project, then, in this process, the gap between the Lu family and the Wang Cui family will become wider and wider.

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

"But they're recruiting workers to grow new crops like cauliflower and blueberries, so why are we recruiting people?" Lu Wenzhong said depressedly.

"Even if there are no new crops, it would be nice to use them to cultivate the fields! The most important thing is not to let the two families gather their labor, so that we will be completely backward at that time, and we will not be able to catch up if we want to. And as long as we recruit enough people now, and when the time comes, we will use the methods used to grow spices to get their planting technology, then they will not take much advantage of us. ”

As soon as Lu Yi said this, the rest of the Lu family elders also thought that there was no coincidence in the agricultural competition, who had more land and more labor, and who would inevitably produce more in the end.

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

With the advice of the clan elders' association, Lu Wenzhong immediately arranged for his subordinates to carry it out, and the rest of the people who had people in charge in Shanyang, such as the Boling Cui clan, the Zhaojun Li clan, and the Longxi Li clan, also followed suit.

So, a strange scene appeared.

On the streets of Shanyang City, dozens of recruitment notices written on big red paper were held up by the servants of each family, and the people holding the cards were like business vendors, constantly shouting for people to come and apply, and in just one morning, the monthly salary was from 1,200 wen to 1,500 wen.

Li Shimin, who was having lunch in Sun's Mansion, looked at Sun Xiangfu who came to report the situation, and said with a smile that was really like this, "This is your real intention in Shanyang to engage in this all-army competition!" ”

"Hehe, Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, the minister's careful thinking is naturally not hidden from Your Majesty, with the addition of these foreign laborers, the development of the northern land will be more rapid, and the development of the surrounding six hundred miles will be completed within two years, and the development of all second-class land will be completed in three to four years, and in about five years, there will be no problem in building all the Shangqi City and Wulan City." Sun Xiangfu first slapped a sycophant, and then said the prospect he saw.

"It's good to have what you said so easily, a few of them, but they have only recruited one or two hundred thousand people, even if they play a positive role in the development of the Northland, it will not be as big as you said, as far as I know, that second-class land is eight hundred miles east of Shanyang, this year, it is only a little bit developed!" Li Shimin said leisurely.

"This is not an exaggeration to say that the Shanyang army is just an introduction to the whole thing, and the biggest role it plays is to make a small number of outsiders familiar with Shanyang, and pass on some news of Shanyang, I believe that after the end of the competition, there will be people coming to Shanyang one after another to work, because, this morning, the wages and treatment offered by several people will not be anywhere else in Datang, including Chang'an, so ······"

All right! Sun Xiangfu's idea of going north to work is really coming, because the conditions are becoming more and more mature.

First of all, Guanzhong, the most populous city, has implemented a citizenship system, and millions of people in Guanzhong can travel freely, and then, the north, or the central Jingxiang region, will also implement the citizenship system, then, it is basically equal to a large part of the population of Datang, can freely choose to go out to work.

Ordinary people are not stupid, there are easier, higher-paying jobs, why don't they do it? Especially in those areas where the output of farmland is still at the bottom level, the monthly salary is 1,000 yuan, but they can't imagine the high salary, and what they do is just the farming work they usually do, who would not be tempted?

Such a picture, in fact, is not difficult to imagine at all, Li Shimin only needs to make up a little brain, he will know the result of what Sun Xiangfu said, and then, he no longer thinks that the food on the table is delicious, because he is a smart person and thinks more.

After a long time, Li Shimin expressed his worries and said, "Zhengming, when we govern, we must look at the whole country, but we can't just run the northern land, but other places continue to be poor. ”

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu said with a smile, "Your Majesty is too worried, as long as the effect of our governance is to make the people rich, whether he is rich in the south or in the north, in fact, there is no difference, when they are rich, they will have more money to improve their food, clothing, housing and transportation conditions, we just need to boost them at the right time and in the general direction." ”

There is nothing wrong with Sun Xiangfu's words, Li Shimin can't find a reason to refute it at all, just like Sun Xiangfu said before, the state collects taxes from Guanzhong and Beidi, but in fact, all they receive is money, so why bother to care where they receive it from! Some income is the key.

Of course, these people are gathered in the economically developed Shanyang, Sun Xiangfu naturally has a deeper meaning, when those people adapt to the more accelerated pace of life in Shanyang, 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, to meet their higher quality of life needs.

This is also an example to see in later generations, in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen to achieve a wealthy people, when they return to their hometown, not satisfied with their own broken houses, they all get up buildings, not satisfied with muddy roads, then, cement country roads appeared, not satisfied with going home too slowly, highways, railways, and even high-speed rail, have appeared.

At this time, the country only needs to be pushed forward by the needs of the people, and there will be no big 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, what was better, before they did not live in a brick house, they only thought that it was good to have a mud and grass hut to live, from the grass and wood hut to the wooden house, and then to the brick and tile house, high-rise buildings, according to the trajectory of history slowly develop, it may take thousands of years.

Sun Xiangfu directly allows them to quickly transition to a higher level, and 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 the developed countries and then went back, and immediately knew where they should make changes, because then they knew what was good.

Li Shimin, as a person of this era, no matter how eloquent and strategic he is, it is impossible for him to know what Sun Xiangfu, a later generation, is thinking, but fortunately, he has a strong ability to analyze and judge, and he did not dwell on this issue, but 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, and it is inevitable to find all kinds of ways to exploit these hired workers, so our labor protection law in the north will be implemented soon." ”

"Labor protection law?"

This emerging term made Li Shimin stunned again.

When Sun Xiangfu said this term, he had already thought of having a hard time with Li Shimin, so he told Li Shimin about his original intention of establishing the labor protection law and some general regulations, and wanted to convert those serfs who had been exploited by the family for generations into hired laborers, so that they would no longer be exploited, so that the labor protection law must be introduced.

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

Sun Zhengming's methods of dealing with the family are really linked, he feels a little unable to keep up with the rhythm, it seems that the support for him can be appropriately increased, maybe in a few years, the problem of the family can be completely solved.
