What about the people who said that there would be no disaster in the disaster year? What about local and aquatic products?

Zhao Xiang conducted in-depth research and found that there was a reason for these disaster victims to drag their families with them, and they were strikingly similar: they were ostracized by large clans or large households.

Since ancient times, the imperial power was not lower than that of the county, so specific affairs such as public security and taxation below the county level were carried out by people such as the squire, landlords, and patriarchs, and the people were naturally managed by these people. In ancient times, the clan was very powerful, and it became common for the big clan to bully the small clan, and the big clan within the clan to bully the small clan.

Complaint? Okay, the patriarch of the big clan, or the head of the big clan is the judge, where do you want to go to appeal?

Rise up and fight? It's okay too! Unless you can beat ten with one!

What is the first premise of economics? Resources are limited! Even in a small-scale peasant economy, resources are limited, especially in disaster years, when resources in the mountains and rivers are even more scarce. As soon as the famine came, the big clans and clans seized all the natural resources that were only used for tooth sacrifice on weekdays, and the small families either starved to death or fled the disaster - in Zhao Xiang's view, man-made disasters were greater than natural disasters.

Even a man like Xu Changde, who has fought twenty or thirty times, can only consider himself unlucky and flee from the settlement.

Of course, these people are only a minority, not to mention the official history, even if it is the local state and county chronicles, it is already a flood of love for those who can edit it in one sentence.

The grass people are like mustard, and there is no trace of a light breeze, even if these people have taken root here.

In the large cement yard in front of the warehouse, more than 2,000 people lined up as family units to register personal information.

Zhaoyan definitely can't do it alone, so He Defang, who has the most literacy in Wutian Village, also became a registrar. Then the registration form filled with information will follow the corresponding family to the next link. One registration form for one person, one stack for one family, and Zhao Di used a stapler to bind it and stamped it with a string of numbers. Each member of the family is then given a work card with the same number printed on the card.

A total of 725 families were registered, and it took four days to complete. At the end of the first day, Zhao Xiang asked each head of the family to come and get the number, and the families who got the number in the next three days could come over, and the strong laborers of the other families went to work.

The project is very simple, it is divided into two parts, one is to dig the river to build the river, the inland river and the outer river, purely manpower, no longer use machinery. The other is to build new houses for Wutian Village and Liushui North Branch, and of course some other houses along the way, such as the school that has been calling for a long time.

After Zhao Xiang got all the information, he ran back to Hyundai to make an announcement on the Internet, and recruited college students who were willing to take orders in ten minutes. I got the electronic version in one day. Then pick out the part of the people who go to work and make an official work card for them.

In fact, the cost of the work card is not high, find a company that makes the card, and the electronic version will be done in two days. Therefore, all the workers must show this positive employee card when they eat - there are too many people who go to work, and the daily food consumption is a huge amount, Zhao Xiang doesn't want the relatives of the victims who are cruising around and have not come to work to come over to eat, in that case it will be a bottomless pit.

As for whether the work card will be lent out and given to relatives and friends, Zhao Xiang is not worried, it has long been explicitly prohibited, and he will be fired directly once discovered.

The villagers of Wutian Village and Liushui North Branch were fortunate to be upgraded to first-class citizens because of this incident - Zhao Xiang issued them blue cards, which recorded their identity and household registration information, but the difference was that if these people did not work in Zhao Xiang's place, it was forbidden to rub rice - although the food in the form of work for relief was far from being comparable to the food in the previous cooperative era, but it was impossible to stand the fact that the villagers in the two villages were always greedy for small and cheap, and Zhao Xiang could only put an end to this shameful behavior from the root.

The Xiaozhishan construction site is lively again, the difference is that this time the wages are relatively uniform, most of them are 20 yuan per day. The twenty cents are paid daily, and you can take the money or exchange it for two catties of rice. If you want to use copper coins to buy rice, I'm sorry, I only recognize the brass coins issued by the Zhao family, and the messy money circulating in the market will not be accepted.

In this way, the amount of copper coins minted can be greatly reduced - after all, brass is expensive, and the cost of a copper coin is two cents and a half, and Zhao Xiang doesn't think he can carry it for long.

Zhao Xiang openly took out his own coinage to circulate, relying on the chaos of Zhangzhou's currency. The frequent alternation of political power in Fujian and the poor economic and trade have made the currency circulating in the market complex and diverse, and it is not a big deal to get some brass coins by yourself, as long as the people who use and receive them have no opinions.

In a family, if only one person goes to work, he can only bring two catties of rice a day, which is less, but it is enough to live the life of a family of four or five people. If there are two people going to work, four catties of rice, plus some fish, shrimp and crabs caught in the river, can completely reach the dietary level of the well-off homes of local residents.

The drought in the whole Zhangzhou led to the closure of large households to high prices, and the accumulation of grain became the main theme of this period, but Zhao Xiang did not know each other, and the grain harvest was just enough, and he also used work for relief to feed more than 2,000 disaster victims by himself, so that countless people hated him. If it weren't for the existence of more than 2,000 victims, those big families would have come to the door a long time ago.

But Zhao Xiang didn't know much about this, and the foreign affairs were nothing more than asking for support from the county, and He Defang and Chen Hanlin went to run; Internal affairs are nothing more than housework and Zhaoyan and Granny Zhao, who are difficult to serve, just avoid it. He felt that the top priority was to create a labor-intensive industry that could absorb such a large group of victims.

But that's easier said than done!

Of course, he can still carry it on his own, anyway, there are more than 3,000 tons of grain in the warehouse, and he won't be able to eat it for a while, but this is not the way to sustainable development.

Granny Zhao was very dissatisfied with Zhao Xiang's behavior of taking care of everything: "The resettlement of the victims has their own parents and officials, what is it for you to use work for relief in a small local household, and invite people to buy people's hearts?" ”

Zhao Xiang didn't respond, and he was also depressed in his heart, backed by a modern Chinese country with labor shortages everywhere, but he couldn't even solve the problem of eating more than 2,000 people. In the past two days, he has visited dozens of factories, but there is outsourcing to do, all of which are pure manual work without any added value, such as toys or craft decorations, purely in exchange for time and labor for the most meager wages.

If the amount is large, it's okay, but it's just a few thousand yuan, for this money, Zhao Xiang specially traveled between ancient and modern, he really can't look at it.

Seeing that Zhao Xiang lowered his head to eat and didn't answer, Chunyang came out to relieve the siege: "This is a helpless move, a few days ago, I had asked Defang and a few of them to go to the county government to report the matter, and only let them come back, but there was no follow-up." I went to ask this morning, but Lin Zhixian just flickered. Zhao Xiang, disaster relief is a good thing, but we still have to think about the way back. ”

Zhao Xiang nodded: "I know, I've been thinking about this for the past few days." I asked Sandezi to find Li Yuanguang in the north of the city, and all I can think of at present is to do some business with them, and I can't sit back and eat empty. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the doorbell rang, and Zhao Di took the report: "Sir, Brother Sande brought two people over, saying that you let them be brought." ”
