Chapter 220: The Power That Drives People's Hearts

Fan Zhen also knew that what Ye Hua did was good for Da Zhou, but as the prime minister, what he should do, what civil affairs, economy, and civil engineering, should all be his power, and should not be taken away by others, especially if there is no permission.

But Fan Zhen was very helpless, he once cooperated with Ye Hua to build the outer city and dredge the water again, he was very hard, but at the last moment, it was Ye Hua who took out the cement, took out the water and sand method, and took away all the scenery.

Everyone knows that the champion Hou has the ability, and what they write is just a corpse vegetarian meal.

It feels bad to be looked down upon, at least Fan Zhen can't stand it.

It's just that there are more and more such things, and it is Ye Hua who is leading the rebuilding of Kaifeng, so it is strange that Lao Fan can be happy. He is still open-minded, and at least 50,000 stone of grain has been allocated.

Ye Hua smiled at Fan Qian, "That Fan Xianggong, I mean that a lot of cement, steel bars, bricks and tiles will be used to build the city, and the quantity is very large. ”

Fan Zhen became vigilant, "You want the court to help you out?" ”

"How could it! How dare I think so! Ye Hua said with a smile: "As a courtier, how can you take advantage of the court, I just hope that the court can give a little symbolic support." ”

Fan Zhen lowered his eyelids, a pair of eyes kept rolling in the circles under his eyes, and after a long while, he said in a muffled voice: "Tell me, what do you want?" ”

"Tax-free!"

"Tax-free?" Fan Zhen suspects that his ear is broken.

"That's right, it's tax-free!" Ye Hua said with a smile: "I want to purchase materials from the workshop, the workshop must step up production to meet the needs, at this time, if the imperial court can exempt the tax, the burden of the workshop will be lighter, and there will be more funds to expand the scale, produce more building materials, and meet the needs of repairing the city......" Ye Hua said a lot of benefits, and finally concluded: "Fan Xianggong, this is a multi-kill thing, I think the political hall should not stare at that little bit of tax, the prime minister reconciles yin and yang, the son of heaven is above, and the hundred officials are inherited, and more economic means should be used to regulate, I don't know what Fan Xianggong wants? ”

Facing Ye Hua's bunch of rhetoric, Fan Zhen smacked his taste. There is really some truth, "The stakes are very high, and I want to discuss it with the third envoy Li Xianggong." ”

"No problem, I'm waiting for Fan Xianggong's good news, by the way, I'll transport the 50,000 stone of grain!"

Ye Hua is like a fox who has stolen a chicken.

He only wanted to be tax-exempt, and Fan Zhen actually vomited blood and gave it away, rare, really rare!

These people in the political hall are hating Ye Hua more and more, and it is getting more and more difficult to take advantage of them.

Ye Hua's head turned rapidly...... He gave the order to recruit workers, and in less than three days, 10,000 victims came to sign up. They don't have any requirements, as long as they can eat a full meal.

Regardless of whether it is Kaifeng or other places, in a disaster year, the biggest requirement of refugees is to eat, and it is luck not to starve to death.

Fan Zhen also thought so, so he felt that Ye Hua was here to ask for food.

But in fact, this is not the case at all, Ye Hua told the victims that he will give wages, ordinary labor, 300 wen per month, masons, carpenters, blacksmiths, veterinarians, etc., the starting salary is 1 yuan, and there is no upper limit.

It's not for nothing, it's paid!

Everyone was enthusiastic, and they couldn't wait to kneel down and thank Hou Ye for his great kindness.

Of course, Ye Hua is not a living bodhisattva, and his next words made the big guy cool.

The imperial court would pay for the rebuilding of the houses, but these houses would require everyone to pay some money to buy them...... In other words, the wages they earn will be used to buy a house.

Although a good discount was given, everyone was also thinking about whether it was enough or not!

One by one, their faces were sad and sad.

"See, this is Ye Hua's virtue!" Wei Renpu snorted and said unceremoniously: "Take off your pants and fart, it's too much!" ”

Fan Zhen frowned and said: "It has always been a practice to use disaster victims to work, only to give food, not money!" Ye Hua is unconventional. The houses of the victims were damaged, and the court helped to rebuild them and distribute them to the victims, which was originally a matter of virtue and politics, and Ye Hua wanted to collect money again, which chilled people's hearts, what did he want to do? ”

"What else can you do, it's just a trick of the day!" Wei Renpu said angrily: "Fan Xianggong, you shouldn't have promised him in the first place!" ”

Fan Zhen spread his hands, "I don't want to agree, but King Jin has helped Ye Hua speak, what can I do?" ”

They poured bitter water on each other, and they didn't understand Ye Hua's various actions.

It's Li Gu, although he also looks at Ye Hua and hates it, but when they went to the countryside together, Li Xianggong benefited a lot, and as the third envoy, Li Gu is much stronger than Fan Zhen and Wei Renpu in economic matters.

"Don't be in a hurry to scold people first, I think there is a big article here!"

Wei Renpu squinted his eyes and said, "What article, you tell me!" ”

Li Gu said embarrassedly: "Didn't I understand it!" ”

"If you don't figure it out, you don't have it! You were poured ecstasy soup by Ye Hua! ”

Li Gu was silent, he felt that even if he hated a person, he couldn't deny it all, and even the more he hated it, the more he had to think about it, see what others were smart, and learn from each other's strengths.

So Li Xianggong decided not to waste foam, but changed into cloth clothes, ran to the construction site, and inquired in person.

Li Gu ran for ten days in a row, and when he returned to the political hall again, the whole person was different.

The skin on his face was dark, his hands were rough, and he was still bowing his old waist.

"I said Li Xianggong, didn't you go to Fanzi Hutong?" Wei Renpu helped Li Gu to sit down.

It was rare that Wang Pu was also there, and several ministers got together and came to a three-hall trial.

Li Gu sighed: "You really have to do everything yourself, the old man went to the construction site, moved bricks and wood, and chatted with the people, guess what?" Ye Hua's method is amazing! ”

After ten days of going, he changed his attitude, and Li Xianggong rebelled too quickly.

Wei Renpu turned his head and only gave him the back of his head.

Li Gu didn't care, and continued to talk about what he saw and heard, and his eyebrows became more and more colorful...... According to Ye Hua's design, after completion, the cheapest house will cost 30 yuan, and the original owner only needs to pay 10 yuan to get it, and this 10 yuan can be paid in installments with a down payment of 3 yuan.

A man can get 300 yuan a month, and he can get 3 yuan in ten months, that is, he can have his own house.

After listening to Li Gu's introduction, Wei Renpu gave him two words - naΓ―ve!

The money is given to the people, and the people can save money honestly? Don't they eat or drink? What if I can't come up with the money then?

Isn't it still a pit for the common people!

"Hahaha, Wei Xianggong, you call seeing only the trees but not the forest! Do you think all the people will be like this? I'm telling you, there are more people who are desperate and want to buy a house, so they will choose to work overtime! ”

"Overtime?" Wei Renpu asked in surprise.

"That's right, it's overtime!" Li Gu said: "I have seen with my own eyes, many people from morning to night, all the time, not only young and strong, but even women have come, they level the land, plant grass and trees, no worse than men!" ”

Fan Zhen was taken aback, "Why, men and women are working together on the construction site?" ”

"That's right, because of that, it's a lot faster."

Fan Qian's face is ugly, the male protagonist is outside, the female protagonist is inside, the male farmer and the female weaver, this is the rule of thousands of years, and the result has made Ye Hua mess up, this kid is born to make trouble!

Shouldn't you go up to Your Majesty and ask for a decree to stop Ye Hua's behavior?

Fan Qian pondered, but Li Gu continued to talk, "Let me tell you, in addition to working overtime, there are many people who choose to learn skills!" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Just learn to be a mason, a carpenter!" Li Gu said with a smile: "Become a craftsman, earn a consistent month, more than three times that of ordinary workers, I have seen many people, I would rather be an apprentice for half a year, no money, but also learn the craft, even the worst craftsman, three months can earn ten months of money...... Let me tell you, when this repair is over, there will be thousands more craftsmen in Kaifeng! ”

Li Gu sighed: "With a skill, you won't go hungry." Many of the victims were poor people who had no roof to cover themselves, so they could only work hard. In the past, they didn't have the opportunity and no one wanted to teach. Well, now that such a big project, there is a very large shortage of craftsmen, and there is a house pressing, and they can't do it if they don't learn! Everyone played with their lives, and that motivation was not comparable to the forcible conscription. ”

These people are all talented people, and after listening to Li Gu's introduction, the more I think about it, the more I feel that it is really a great article!

Wei Renpu squinted his eyes, grabbed his beard, and thought about it for a while, he figured it out, Ye Hua is driven by wages and houses, coercing and luring, forcing the people to work hard, learn technology, and increase their skills!

In the past, the imperial court was forced to recruit people's husbands, and they did the same thing for good and bad, helping to rebuild houses, which means that it was difficult to stimulate ordinary people.

But Ye Hua's method is different, he makes most people move, and it comes from the bottom of his heart!

Of course, there are also people who are lazy, unwilling to save money, and unwilling to learn skills, they are doomed to not get a house...... It's just that Wei Renpu has nothing to sympathize with these people, the road is given to you, you can't endure hardship, you deserve it.

"It's a big article! The kid surnamed Ye played with everyone in applause, amazing, really powerful! ”

Li Gu smiled: "It's not all, you haven't seen it through, there is still knowledge here!" ”

"Oh, tell me about it!"

Unconsciously, several ministers changed their expressions, and Li Gu looked arrogant and pointed to his teacup. Wei Renpu pinched his nose and filled him with a cup of tea.

Li Gu took it, moistened his throat, and said with satisfaction: "Champion Hou used money to calculate the price this time, and the original owner had a discount when allocating the house, but no one else did!" ”

……

"That's pricing power!"

Ye Hua is very satisfied with his plan, he has already calculated, the surplus half of the land, all the houses will be built and released in batches, and each house can earn an extra seventy percent of the profit, what a big piece of fat this is!

"No matter how much profit you make, it's useless, you sold all the land to us, you can't make it!" Fu San said generously: "I'll give you half of the land!" ”
