Chapter 837: Drawing Proceeds
The Tianlu plan is a huge plan, a total of 2 years, this year is the first year, and it is also the foundation, a total of 500 million yuan of funds have been approved, this money, about 100 million yuan was spent in the early stage, and now, there are 400 million yuan, which is in the many shops and embassies in Bianliang of the Dinghai Navy, with the ability of Han Jiang, it can be used
Part of the funds, Han Jiang knew that the opportunity could not be missed, and on the premise of not informing Shenyang, on the second day, he agreed to the request of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the funds of 6,000 guan were directly sent to Dongfu as a settlement fee in the early stage, and the remaining half would be paid when the people gathered and began to set off.
Han Qi had long known that Dinghai would be very generous, but he didn't expect that it would be so generous, while Han Jiang sent the funds, he also guaranteed that when the personnel were opened, not only would the follow-up settlement fee be paid, but even the one-year management fee would be in place.
Money is moving, this sentence is not bad at all, why do you include Han Qi, more than 30 local transfer envoys, and powerful people will gather together to discuss the issue of drawing, isn't it just for money, at that time, I also considered that the navy has the ability to give them enough money, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, millions, these are two completely different concepts, if you don't give it, it will be a big trouble.
Tens of thousands of people, even two or three hundred thousand, is only tens of millions a year, which is really nothing for such a big plate as the Dinghai Navy, but when it comes to one million, or even 3 million, plus the settlement fee, it is almost more than 400 million, which is not a small amount, and the money for an unprecedented canal project is also among them.
The navy promised, and brought a deposit of 60 million yuan, although it was not all, but it could be regarded as a reassurance to the Northern Song Dynasty, so the valuable preparation of the lottery plan could be carried out.
Approved by the Eastern Government, the policy of three draws and one ding has been delegated to the state roads, but the fundamental reason why it has not yet been implemented is that the money is not in place, although for the localities, there is no money, and it is a big deal to put it back, but this is not big or small, it is a blow, and for them, they should wait.
60 million in place, even if it was just to the account of Dongfu, it immediately caused a sensation, and the Kaifeng Mansion that was known first began to be implemented, and then the entire local state and county, all of a sudden, it was all chaotic.
Bianliang Gyeonggi, Xiaozhangtun, this small village with the surname Zhang as the mainstay, a total of more than 500 households, almost 4,000 people, is a relatively large village in the vicinity.
The land of Gyeonggi has always been more prosperous, but unfortunately it is an exception, not close to the Bianhe River, near Kaifeng, the canal is a rich place, not to mention these commodities from the south to the north, just say that at the port, young men do handling, pulling fiber, you can earn a lot of money.
Xiaozhangtun is not only no canal, the traffic is not convenient, located in a mountain col, surrounded by mountains and sanitation, if it is not in the valley, the relationship between more land, it really can't support such a large village developed, the average person is enough to eat, others, it is difficult to obtain.
Yesterday, the yamen in the county government came to post a notice, and informed the chief and the village chief that the imperial court would send personnel to the north and pay them well.
Draw Ding, what a distant memory, the village elders in the village, recall, it seems that the last time, it was in the time of the Yuanyuan Alliance, in order to guard Bianliang, only smoked Ding.
That was to go to the battlefield, although in the end, these drawers from Gyeonggi did not go up to the battlefield, but they also entered Dubianliang and were on duty on the city wall for at least three months.
Nervousness and poor food and sleep have devastated many people, and some strong guys can't even afford to get sick, not to mention that their families are ruined, in short, in the original situation, they have dropped several grades.
Smoking Ding is not a good thing for every village, not to mention talking about tiger color change, basically, there is no good feeling.
But this time, it was different, not to fight, but to the north, to determine the place controlled by the navy, what kind of place it was, although there was no specific location, it was quite far away, almost anywhere in the sky.
Dingjun, this name, even the residents of Xiaozhangtun, who don't have much money, know that this is a very rich place, and it is a very generous place, but no one has ever gone out.
In the previous transfer, Xiao Zhangtun really went to Shenyang, he was doing business in Bianliang, because of illegal stalls, he was arrested by Kaifeng Mansion, and he was sent directly to Shenyang without waiting for him to go up and down.
It's a pity that the Dinghai Navy, although everyone is regarded as a propaganda tool in the future, is still not allowed to leak secrets before the Dinghai Navy begins to organize, and even the salaries of these people are not allowed to be sent back for the time being.
Shenyang and Bianliang, separated by 5,000 miles, in the past, in the feudal era, it was definitely the same distance as the ends of the world, if the Ding Navy is willing to help, not to mention the money, even if it is a family letter, a little material, can be easily sent out, but if the Ding Navy does not help, it is really difficult to get from Shenyang to the Northern Song Dynasty even a piece of paper.
Even the top-secret information of the Northern Song Dynasty was also sent back from the train of the Dinghai Navy, not to mention the Shengdou Xiaomin.
This little trader, after being arrested, only had time to send a letter home, and left 20 yuan of money, and then set off.
If it weren't for the 20 yuan, his family would even think that it was a lie, but even so, 20 yuan would be regarded as life money, and if he went to the north, God knows if he could come back.
Now, here it is again, not like before, arresting some of the wrongdoers, but all the men being drawn from the middle, which is a nightmare for this village.
In a village of 4,000 people, the number of young strong men is about a quarter, and this strong man, mainly between 15 and 45 years old, itself accounts for the vast majority of men, after all, in this era of the Northern Song Dynasty, the average life expectancy is not very high, and life is rare for seventy years, as far as this small Zhang Tun is concerned, there are only 5 old people over 70 years old.
For 1,000 men, about 330 people will be extracted, and according to the calculation of families, almost one will be taken out of each family on average, which is a very large number.
Suddenly, the lively and peaceful village fell into a strange silence, and no one knew whose fate would fall.
Even if they knew that it was a nightmare for everyone, and the tasks pressed down from above, they had no choice but to follow the rules set before.
A family, there are 3 men, decide which one to go, less than two people, and more, will be combined, a group of three people will draw lots to ensure sufficient fairness, perhaps, the chief and the village head, can keep a few, but there are really not many, 4000 people in the village, at least more than 320 people.
The government did not give them a long time, and after the notice was posted, it took about two days to come to the village again, accompanied by a head catcher and four officials, as well as the main book of the county government.
In the county-level of the Northern Song Dynasty, the county commander, the county magistrate, the chief secretary and the county lieutenant were the four officials in the county, who held the power in the county.
These people who have the rights of the four big families in the county will not come to the countryside when they are idle, but they are pressed down from the center, and Kaifeng Mansion has directly overwhelmed every county, and even the adults of Kaifeng Mansion have gone deep into the various neighborhoods of Bianliang to lead the affairs of the extraction, how dare these small county orders sit back and relax.
In order to dispatch enough manpower as quickly as possible, and send people to the Dinghai Navy, they moved very fast, and the time was relatively short, at least within 10 days, the precise figures, as well as the general personnel, were reported to the state capitals, and then the state governments made unified arrangements.
Kaifeng Mansion is considered to be the largest and the earliest of all the state capitals, every basic official has a task, and everyone dare not slack off.
The name of the main book is Wu Qingshan, who was born in the Wu family in the county, and after taking the exam, he gave up the qualification to continue to take the Jinshi examination, but entered the circulation and became a low-level official, starting from the stream, it took 20 years all the way to achieve the position of the main book, and it can be said that he has been working at the bottom for many years.
In 20 years, it will temporarily reach 8 grades, which sounds a little too slow, but for these officials at the bottom, this is already the limit.
This seven-grade is not such a number one as the county order, but some sub-positions in the state town or the prefecture city, generally speaking, the 8-grade master book and the 8-grade county are already the limit, and then go up, there are many difficulties.
When Wu Qingshan came this time, not only did he confirm how many personnel Xiao Zhangtun could transfer, there was a certain amount of registration in the county government, but in order to avoid taking advantage of loopholes, there were still high-ranking officials and head-catching officials who came to the grassroots level together.
In the past these times, the four families have gone to many villages, almost three or four every day, although the county seat is not small, but a large number of villages, that is, so few, these main ones have been caught, the personnel are determined, the entire county has been drawn, basically, it can be completed, and the rest is just a process of icing on the cake, so that these remote, or few villages, take the initiative to report it.
The arrival of the master book made the village, which was already a little depressed, fall to the bottom again, especially Li Zheng and the village chief, who had other plans in their hearts, they also estimated that if they could accommodate the head catcher, their family could be saved, but now, even the master book came in person, obviously, the county officials, the importance of this matter is above their expectations.
Those who can do the village chief and the example of the plant, observing words and colors is the key, and they honestly dare not mention it again, they can only improvise.
After Wu Qingshan arrived, he didn't do anything else, refused the invitation of Li Zheng's family, but came to the barn field, and the people who had already been summoned by the village chief gathered on the barn field, hundreds of people, a piece of black pressure, around, gathered more people, they were all family members of the lottery, watching their family members being drawn, there was a feeling of life and death.
Wu Qingshan is also level, and he did not put on official authority, but said everything that could be said in a soft voice, these drawers did not go to war, but went to the north to learn skills, which is a prosperous place than Bianliang.
The Northern Song Dynasty and the Dinghai Navy had a close connection, and because of the relationship between transporting a large number of migrant workers, the Kaifeng Prefecture sent many people to Shenyang, and they also sent a lot of letters back, these letters, even if only a small part of the situation in Shenyang, also described Shenyang beautifully.
Someone from the Wu family also went to Shenyang and described it, although it was a little unbelievable, but the Dinghai Navy always created miracles, and it was almost the same.
On the barn field, all the people are wooden, even if Wu Qingshan said that the sky is falling, it can't shake their sad mood, they are all transferred, once they go out, God knows what will happen in the end.
Wu Qingshan saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, in the past week, he had walked through more than 20 villages, most of the situation was similar, if it was changed to before, he could only rely on the government's official authority to force them to bow their heads, but now, he has other ways.
The data in the county government is about 280 people, and after a little communication with the governor, the number they drew was 330, which was more than the county government recorded, but he brought enough funds.
From the Dongfu where Han Jiang sent 6,000 guan, the money has been distributed, and the Dongfu has made up a part, and the local county government has also taken out a little from the previous year's management fee, which can be regarded as making up the 40 guan settlement fee.
Sometimes, words alone can't solve the problem, only money can solve the problem.
330 people, 40 per person, is 13,200 guan, according to the previous Northern Song Dynasty copper coins, always eight catties, I am afraid that it is not fast 100,000 catties, but now, with Dinghai coins, the weight has been reduced on a large scale, only about 20,000 catties.
Following Wu Qingshan out, there were more than a dozen carriages, equipped with these cash, and when a dozen or so large square tables were placed on the barn and then placed on the cash, everyone couldn't take their eyes away.
Even if it is placed in Bianliang, 40 guan is not a very small amount of money, let alone Xiaozhangtun, which is just a remote, underdeveloped small village, relying on farming, can manage enough, but the money is really difficult to earn, which is also the root cause of Xiaozhangtun's backwardness.
Now under the premise that the lottery is a foregone conclusion, they must go if they choose these 40 or not, who will not choose, in other words, for ordinary people, 40 is enough to buy life money, even if the future is worrying, but they can always leave a large amount of money for the family.
When Wu Qingshan left, Xiao Zhangtun finally recovered some liveliness, some families came out to buy all kinds of meat, it can be regarded as a parting banquet, the departure date has been set, just a week later, a little fast, but it is also within the acceptable range.
