Chapter 63: Reconstruction
Since Bai Yan's death, everything has returned to its former peace. The name of Lin Tian resounded throughout Yidi and spread widely in the land of Dongyi. Lin Tian's deeds have been passed on by word of mouth and have become inspirational stories.
After the Battle of Fucheng, all the clans of the Ghost Fang were willing to recognize the status of the Heavenly Alliance as the lord of Fucheng. And this is naturally indispensable for Dolu's support, and the characters of Dolu's generation have all been properly arranged by Lin Tian.
Judging from Dolu's previous performance, Lin Tian's performance made him very satisfied, in the past, Doru had never shown anything to fight for power with Lin Tian, as long as Lin Tian had the ability to build the ghost party well, he was willing to push Lin Tian to the throne.
Doru thought that the ghost side could go further in the hands of a young person like Lin Tian, so in the subsequent negotiations with various clans, Doru said good things for the Heavenly Alliance and Lin Tian many times.
In this way, Tianmeng became the master of Fucheng City, which meant that Lin Tian became the helmsman of Fucheng City, nominally ruling the entire ghost side.
Lin Tian also understood that now he only had jurisdiction over the ghost side in name, and it was not yet known how far his decree could go. He needed to make some achievements and gain the approval of the entire Ghost Fang clan, so Lin Tian first started with internal construction.
In order for the decree to be clear, it is necessary to have a unified internal organization. Under the Heavenly Alliance, he set up two major departments. One is the Ministry of Civil Affairs, which is in charge of civil affairs within the territory of the ghost party; The second is the military department, in charge of the armed forces of the ghost side, and the ghost side can only be rich and strong if it is self-reliant and has its own armed forces to defend itself. Only rich but not strong, for a rich country; Only the strong but not the rich are poor countries, and if they cannot meet the two at the same time, they are weak countries.
This is the case of the current ghost side, which is poor and weak, so Lin Tian has to grasp both hands and build at the same time in order to make the ghost side rise. The post of Minister of Civil Affairs is held by Doru, who not only has a high prestige in the ghost side, but also has a wide range of contacts, which is extremely convenient for carrying out civil affairs work. At Doru's suggestion, the Ministry of Civil Affairs absorbed the former ghost Fang elders of the same generation as Doru. Lin Tian is naturally willing to see this, originally Lin Tian had beaten them local tyrants, Lin Tian had offended them, and he was afraid that these people would oppose him behind his back, but now Doru can persuade them to take up the post, which Lin Tian is very willing to see.
Lin Tian now found that there were too few talents around him, at least too few people who could take charge of themselves. The head of the military department must be a trusted and reliable person in Lin Tian, because the head of the military department will be in charge of the entire military force of the ghost side, and if there are two hearts, it will inevitably be chaotic.
It's a pity that there are too few people available around Lin Tian, and even fewer suitable people, and in the end, Lin Tian handed over this important task to Fang Hao. By Lin Tian's side, Fang Hao still has some skills, just to see how well he has arranged the logistics of the Heavenly Alliance, and the military talent he once showed in the defense of the Jinghu camp is also very good. So Lin Tian chose him, although they haven't known each other for a very long time, but during this time together, Lin Tian also knows Fang Hao's personality, Fang Hao is stable and reliable, Lin Tian believes that he can take on this great responsibility.
Fang Hao was deeply surprised by Lin Tian's decision, and said that he didn't understand it at all, so he shirked it many times, but in the end, he couldn't shirk it, and only asked Lin Tian to have a suitable person to replace him in the future, and he temporarily acted as his agent.
Lin Tian has set up the big framework of the Heavenly Alliance, and as for the small departments of each ministry, Lin Tian authorized the two of them to form whatever they lacked, and it would be up to them to decide anyway. Fang Hao was accustomed to this and was not surprised at all, but Doru was very shocked. Lin Tian's behavior is to delegate power and trust the people below, but if it is not good, it is to be the shopkeeper, which is irresponsible.
In the face of Doru's righteous teachings, Lin Tian could only accept it with an open mind. Because Lin Tian knew that he had more important things to do, he couldn't waste his energy on trivial matters, he just needed to control the general direction.
At present, the entire ghost party is under the name of the Heavenly Alliance, and Lin Tian is very generous to take out the economic lifeline of the Heavenly Alliance, and take out the method of salt making and smelting. A smelter will be built in Fucheng, and the original camp of the Celestial Alliance will be used as a salt factory. Lin Tian's move was highly praised by Doru, Doru's eyes were already lit up just by hearing these two things, if he knew that Lin Tian had more ideas in his head, he was afraid that he would have to jump.
Considering that there were still many refugees waiting to be rebuilt, Lin Tian proposed to recruit laborers, build factories, mine veins, and work in smelters and salt factories. This kind of killing multiple birds with one stone, the two of them agreed with both hands, and the only thing they didn't understand was the remuneration system that Lin Tian said. According to Lin Tian, laborers can be paid according to their daily workload, and naturally there is no currency here, so there are materials instead.
These materials are not only food but also other necessities of life, and what Lin Tian is doing now is more like a physique under the planned economy. Therefore, Lin Tian still had an idea that he didn't tell them, that is, to make food stamps, meat stamps, salt stamps, etc., as a payment, and the people of the ghost side could use these tickets to exchange for all kinds of materials. It's a pity that the reality can't make Lin Tian get his wish, there is no pen and no paper here, and there is no printing, so it can't be realized at all.
However, Lin Tian would not give up this idea, he already had an alternative method in mind, and he could implement it after the smelter was completed.
When the clan of the whole ghost party received the news of Fucheng, everyone was excited but full of doubts at the same time. They were very happy about the construction of the smelter and the salt plant. They did not expect such a big move as soon as the new leader came to power. In the future, the ghost side will also have their own goods to sell, and they will be able to get more supplies, which means that each of them will benefit from this.
I also heard about the recruitment information, and it was still a remuneration system, but people said they didn't understand it. In the past, the Ghost Side's laborers worked at a specified time every day, and the materials they received each time were fixed. In the new remuneration system, the principle of fairness is indeed embodied in the distribution method of more work and more and less work.
For those who understand the meaning, the vast majority of them welcome it and support this approach of the Heavenly Alliance, while the few people are only afraid that they are people who are used to eating and drinking! Hard-working people are naturally very supportive, and the proportion of giving and receiving will greatly encourage hard-working people to be more industrious, and at the same time, it will also spur those who are lazy and lazy. Lin Tian's move will not only win the hearts of all the clans of the ghost side, but also greatly increase the work efficiency of the ghost side, and there will be progress only if there is competition.
"Father, I've thought about it, I'm going to go to Fucheng to sign up."
"Son, our ghost party is now truly ushering in a savior, but it's a pity that we were blind at the time!"
This kind of dialogue has appeared in many clans. Many of these clans used to deal with the Li people. There is even a clan near Jinghu that the Li clan once helped. When Bai Yi was marching against Wuheng, these clans hid far away in the face of the Li tribe's wooing, and did not deal with them at all.
And the Gaoxin, Jintian, Sake, Qingdi and Chidi tribes, who have followed the Li people from the beginning, are now already rising. Don't look at the fact that the current ethnic group is not big, as the patriarch of the Heavenly Alliance, his status in the city is not low now. Moreover, many of the clansmen of the five clans have already entered the two major departments to work, and it will not be long before a group of upstarts will appear in the ghost side.
Seeing these situations, how can the clans that have been co-opted by the Li clan not envy and regret what they have done in the past. Therefore, this time, when receiving the news of recruitment, many clans took the initiative to send the young men of the patriarch to Fucheng to sign up. They knew that the current leader of the Heavenly Alliance was from the same background as them, and he was a very fair person from this decree, so they wanted to try their luck in Fucheng and seize this opportunity, in case they would soar!
As soon as the news came out, it was the refugees in the city who were restless recently, although they were barely able to make ends meet, but who would give up in the face of such a job where they could have no worries about food and clothing?
For a while, the door of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was congested with a large number of people who heard the news, and in the face of a large number of job seekers, it was difficult for Doru to do, and there was definitely no need for so many people.
When Doru came to Lin Tian to solve it, Lin Tian gave Doru a plan. Encourage people to open up the wasteland for spring ploughing, and the Tianmeng will distribute the seeds uniformly, and when the harvest comes, the Tianmeng will only take 50% according to the harvest amount, and this 50% also includes their harvest, and the remaining 50% belongs to the growers. In this way, the growers will do their best to grow crops, and they will also have something to do, and at the same time, they will have food to live on, and maybe there will be a surplus.
In this way, the problem of food shortage can be fundamentally solved, Tianmeng also has a certain income, and the people also have a good harvest and a good life. In fact, Lin Tian didn't think about removing taxes in the past, but the conditions did not allow it. One day, the foundation of the alliance is too thin, and it cannot operate without income; Second, the people need to have more output under the pressure of taxes, so that the ghost side can progress, and Tianmeng can also use these taxes to do more public utilities to benefit the people of the ghost side.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable to say that taxes since ancient times, the most important thing is a matter of degree, maybe after the foundation of the Tianmeng in the future, Lin Tian will further consider reducing taxes.
In this way, Lin Tian simply solved Doru's problem, Doru admired Lin Tian so much, and he firmly believed in his heart that he really didn't see the wrong person.
