The tax revenue of Zhancheng Port is claimed to be millions of taels to the outside world, but in fact it can only get seven or eight hundred thousand taels. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoSince the princess's fief tax accounts and other things are independent, the household department does not know the details at all, but only estimates based on the transactions of several nearby seaports and the port of Champa.

These officials have never had any idea of attracting investment, but they only know that they have set up a clever name to collect money, and the various taxes and fees collected are then transferred out through the method of seven, seven, eight or eight to become a small amount of money in their own pockets. But the Maidno people didn't pay attention to their clever name at all, and they also knew that they couldn't afford to provoke them, so they could only exploit the maritime merchants of Annan and the Wu Dynasty, but those maritime merchants were not idiots, they knew that they voted with their feet, and you had high taxes here, so I would transport them to the port of Champa, and in a few years, the port of Champa would become the most prosperous port along the coast of Annan.

The princess did not collect taxes, but after collecting taxes, she took them from the people for the people, and continued to expand the port, build docks, and expand the port storage area, so although the tax revenue of the port of Zhancheng sounds scary, in fact, only about tens of thousands of taels are really collected in the princess's pocket. Not to mention the siege of the port of the city by the Nanban this time, in order to clear the wilderness, the army of the port burned the storage area, destroyed the wharf, blocked the waterway, and now the port is completely paralyzed. Fortunately, the port of the east has now been restored, and two temporary wharves have been built near the town of Beiqiaotou, so that the port of Champa can still operate to a certain extent.

However, it is not a simple matter to rebuild the port facilities of Champa Port and clear the shipping channel, and it will take at least 300,000 taels of silver to start the operation. In addition, in order to ensure that Nanban could not get a grain of rice or wood during the defense war, all the farmland outside the city was destroyed, and all the farms were demolished and burned. At least 100,000 taels will be needed to restore agricultural production and residential areas outside the city alone. In addition, due to the influx of a large number of victims into the city, the port of Champa also needs a large amount of food supply, otherwise there will be a famine and social unrest.

The princess knew that although her army had won the Nanban victory this time, it was a miserable victory, and if it were not for the great help of Dongfang Gang, I am afraid that she would have to flee now. The recovery of production after the victory was a burden even heavier than the war, and the resettlement of the victims, the clearing of farmland, the reconstruction of houses, and, most importantly, the clearing of the waterways, all required a lot of manpower and material resources, and she had no officials under her command who were capable of doing the job.

A few days ago, Qian Longzhou submitted to her a reconstruction plan for the port of Champang, which detailed how to carry out the reconstruction work, including clearing farmland, recovering unowned acres, opening up new farms, and setting up collective dormitories. There are even a large number of subsequent steps, such as large-scale construction of processing plants, breeding farms, and the purchase of a large number of industrial raw materials to manufacture finished and semi-finished products, etc. The princess carefully examined this plan document, and she couldn't help but be secretly shocked, this is like the scale of building a new Oriental Port, don't these Chinese themselves already have an Oriental Port? And help her to build a new industrial production city, isn't this to grab her own brand?

However, at this time, Qian Longzhou's analysis of this sentence brought all the plans back to the prototype. Now because Champong Port is the territory of the princess herself, and all affairs in the territory are decided by the princess alone, and the senate's investment will definitely be rewarded and guaranteed. But as long as the princess leaves, the investment of these senates will be in vain. Moreover, with the greedy nature of these Annam officials in this time and space, they will inevitably treat the investment of the Senate as a big fat sheep, cutting one knife after another, so Qian Longzhou has now decided in his heart that the reconstruction project of Zhancheng Port must not start, not only can it not start, but also terminate any reconstruction efforts now.

"Princess, you have worked hard to build this city and make it the largest port in the Kingdom of Annam, but now that your father has called you back, then all the funds in this port will fall into the pockets of the treasury and then be divided among the corrupt officials." Qian Longzhou was also very unhappy at this time, he was holding a pistol that the Senate had not yet made a resolution to sell, but as a result, people threw it directly into the pond without looking at it, which was simply a slap in the face, and at this time he couldn't help but secretly make up his mind, no matter what, he would make this group of officials unhappy.

After listening to Qian Longzhou's analysis, the princess herself was also extremely dissatisfied, after her father led the army to defeat the Zhan people and seize the city, she once wanted to let the officials send officials to manage it. As a result, the group of officials in the ministry prevaricated, claiming that they could not be dispatched. In the end, he heard his father complain that there were no ministers to rule the world, so he volunteered to come to the land of Zhancheng. With little help from outside, she led her retainers to start building the town, and then used her own funds to build a port, all of which she had earned by her own efforts. As a result, the port of Zhancheng developed, and the officials, who claimed that no one could send them, ran out to pick peaches.

If it was just picking peaches, it wouldn't be so hateful, but the hateful thing is that these officials actually connected with each other, and used the power in their hands to desperately suppress themselves, so that their record of defeating the Nanban siege was in vain, and they also abandoned the sharp handcuffs they had finally obtained through the back door, which was simply a tyrannical thing. She couldn't help but slap it on the table and said to Qian Longzhou, "Qian Chengshou, I don't know if there is any way to make these people unable to get a copper from this Zhancheng Port, and they have to pay upside down?" ”

Qian Longzhou showed a knowing smile, "I'm the best at this kind of lack of virtue and smoking, as long as the princess doesn't blame me for being too ruthless." ”

============================= divider =============================

The New Year has finally arrived in a gorgeous manner under the watchful eye of all people. Because there are no holidays in the new time and space, there is no precedent for specific holiday arrangements, even if they are natives in this time and space, they are just resting from the first to the fifteenth day of the new year. But the Senate could not allow the workers to rest for such a long time, especially in the steel sector, where the steelmaking equipment was prone to breakdown, not to mention the power supply to the entire port of Vostochny. Therefore, only a special notice could be issued by the Senate, and workers in certain special departments had to stick to their posts or take turns to rest, while workers in other departments could take three days off. Of course, the workers who work overtime will definitely not suffer, their overtime pay is double the usual salary, and they can get about eight cents to a piece in three days plus the New Year's benefits, which makes them feel very happy, and even those workers who have been determined to be on vacation are digging holes in the mountains to find opportunities to work overtime.

This incident made the members of the executive committee quite strange, since these naturalized migrant workers joined the crossing group, they have been working in the industrial system of the Oriental Port, and most of them do not know what rest is, just like machines running with the machines in the factory. They come from the old time and space of industrialization, and they are full of affection for the word rest, but now they find that these workers who work all day are unwilling to rest and are willing to work overtime for double wages.

In fact, there is nothing surprising about this, in fact, most of these workers were farmers before they came to the port of Vostochny, they worked in the fields all day long, sunrise and sunset, and every day they were facing the loess and repairing the earth with their backs to the sky, the problem was that the land did not produce much, and it was often difficult to feed the family. But at present, in the Oriental Port under the rule of the Senate, although the daily work is very hard, the salary that can be received in a month is even more than the silver saved in the previous year. As industrial workers, their meals are covered by working meals, which are directly covered by the canteens of each factory.

They don't have to worry about their accommodation, at this time, a large number of dormitories continue to be built in the southern area of the Oriental Port, and collective dormitories are also being built near the factory. One room for four single workers and one room for married workers. If the couple works in different factories, they can also adjust the dormitory to an area where it is more convenient for both parties to work according to their requirements. At this time, buses have been opened on the main roads of Dongfang Port, of course, these are two carts pulled by oxen, and workers can take the bus to and from work for free with their work permits, even if they do not bring their work permits, they only need to sit once for a penny.

What they like most is that their children can still study. At this time, the Oriental Port School was still teaching in bungalows, because of the quality of the cement, the Senate could not provide safe long-span buildings for the education system, and now only the bungalows can be built according to the standards of the factory. There are now six grades of primary school, as well as special classes for the elderly. Even if the underage elders have not completed compulsory education, they are far stronger than the indigenous children of this time and space, and if they are mixed together to study, they will definitely affect each other. Half-grown children who are a little older and can no longer receive primary education will be sent to an accelerated education class at this time, as long as they know 500 commonly used Chinese characters and can do addition and subtraction operations within ten, after all, vocational education is mainly implemented at this time.

These naturalized migrant workers were also surprised to find that in the past, women could not do any other work except farming and weaving, but in the port of Vostochny, women can take on all kinds of work like men, and they are still paid equally for equal work, they just do not use child labor. This means that both spouses are able to work locally, earn a decent salary, and make their family life better. In order to avoid the worries of the husband and wife going to work, the Senate even opened a kindergarten and a nursery, which is absolutely unheard of in this time, and the husband and wife can apply for the senate nursery and kindergarten to take care of their children under the age of six, and there is no distinction between men and women.

In order to encourage workers to send their children to school, the school canteen is open to students free of charge, and children with student ID cards can eat free and high-quality lunches at school.

All this makes them feel like they are celebrating the New Year every day, so whether this New Year is a holiday or not is not so important to them.
