Chapter 580: All Men Are Equal
After the news of the increase in wages and paid holidays at the Madura gold mine returned, hundreds of miners from the remaining mines chose to resign and came to Madura, despite Zhao Shuo's repeated orders that other mining reforms would follow immediately. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
For these workers, Madura's paid holidays and wages are real and real, while the reforms in the rest of the places are illusory, and it is still unknown when they will be realized!
In their eyes, Zhao Shuo, like Zhu Luo's officials, was inefficient and could only talk big.
When Sakya came to Zhao Shuo's temporary residence and informed Zhao Shuo of this incident, Zhao Shuo also frowned.
That's a few hundred people, and if it's not well placed, it's going to be a big mess.
"Lord Wang, they all came from thousands of miles and thousands of miles, and there are not many people, otherwise, let's do it! After all, this gold mine in Madura has a lot of reserves, and it doesn't hurt to recruit more people. Seeing that Zhao Shuo was silent for a long time, Sakya weakly put forward his own ideas.
"You think it's a good thing to take it?" Zhao Shuo tilted his head and looked at Sakoya.
"The prince said that all the mining industries in Zhuluo will be reformed sooner or later, and since they will be reformed sooner or later, aren't these people the same everywhere?" Sakya continued. "After the mining reform, it will inevitably attract a large number of displaced people and unemployed people, so there will definitely be no shortage of labor ......"
"So, it's nothing to leave these people behind, right?" Zhao Shuo looked at Sakya.
Sakya nodded slightly, but did not speak, he was not stupid, he had already heard a different meaning from Zhao Shuo's words.
"Sakya, how long do you think the reform of the mining industry will take?" Zhao Shuo asked seemingly unintentionally.
"This, the little one doesn't dare to say......" Sakya said.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Zhao Shuo said.
"Uh......" Zhao Shuo was so determined that Sakya was quite helpless, and he could only guess for a while. The small one thinks that the prince is vigorous and resolute, although Zhu Luo is big, but at most a month or two, it should be okay. ”
"A month or two?" Zhao Shuo laughed. "How dare you think about it!"
"The villain doesn't know much about this, what he said just now was a random guess, if he guessed the troops, he still hopes that the prince will atone for his sins!" Sakya fell to his knees.
"If this is in the area under the control of this king, it will not take more than three days at most, and it can be implemented throughout the country, but in your case, this is difficult." Sakya is the first person Zhao Shuo received in Zhuluo, and he manages the territory of Zhuluo, if he can't understand it, then it will only become more and more difficult for Zhuluo's rule, so Zhao Shuo plans to explain it to him well.
"Zhu Luo has just returned to Shun, nominally the king's territory, but in fact, it is still in the hands of your marquis. If this king implements reforms drastically, once it threatens the interests of your lord, have you thought about the consequences? Zhao Shuo said.
"Hou Ye was defeated by the prince and returned, in desperation, he chose to take refuge in the prince, if the Hou Ye and the prince went to war, it can only make Zhu Luo fall into a more dangerous situation, this, I think Hou Ye should understand." Instead of answering directly, Sakya gave another analysis.
"That's because this king can keep the rule of your marquis and does not infringe on his interests. And mining, that is the foundation of a country, this king is so reformed, and requires that your lord be fully implemented within a few days or months, do you think he will do it completely? Zhao Shuo said.
This time, Sakya was silent.
Mining is indeed Zhu Luo's follow-up, mining income accounts for a large part of Zhu Luo's tax revenue, especially gold and silver, once according to Zhao Shuo's reform, Zhu Luo will suddenly have a lot less income.
Most of the mining workers were the powerful landlords of Chola, and these people controlled Chola together with Sharma, and the interests of these people were also the interests of Sharma, the king of Chola.
In order to maintain the rule of Chola, Sharma chose to take refuge in Zhao Shuo, if his own interests were violated by Zhao Shuo, whether he chose to be patient, or to fight with Zhao Shuo, and then take refuge in others, this is really uncertain.
"Figured it out!" Seeing that Sakya was silent, Zhao Shuo asked.
Sakya nodded, a pensive look on her face.
If Zhao Shuo's point of view is followed, then these people who want to join the Lamar Gold Mine now will really become a problem.
The news of the reform here has already spread a long time ago, and if these people are taken in, and there is no reform in other areas, more and more people will come here to command.
And if these people are not accepted, for the sake of profit, these people are likely to choose extreme ways.
No matter what it is, this is not a good thing for Zhu Luo or for Zhao Shuo. After all, now Zhu Luo nominally belongs to Zhao Shuo.
Zhao Shuo also said that he would implement reforms in all mineral deposits. Broken promises, this is a big problem.
"Lord, what about the people who came?" Sakya looked at Zhao Shuo helplessly.
"Check these people carefully, the unemployed will be under their hands, and the ...... who have worked in other mines"
Before Zhao Shuo finished speaking, Sakya interrupted Zhao Shuo again. "Lord Wang, please give them a way to live, they took the risk to escape, they came here just to have something to eat, if the prince sends them back, they will definitely die rather than live, please think twice."
"Looks like you care about these people!" Zhao Shuo said.
"They are all poor people, if they can help, they naturally want to help, and please ask the prince to open up." Sagarya Road.
"If all these people stay, it will make more people continue to run away and come here, have you thought about what to do?" Zhao Shuo asked.
"This ......" Sakya looked embarrassed, he really hadn't thought about it. Even if he wanted to do it now, he couldn't think of a suitable way.
"Alright, so be it!" Zhao Shuo pursed his lips. "Unemployed people are directly under their hands, and those who have worked in the rest of the mines, you give me a class, what have you done, it is impossible that these people who come here are all engaged in gold mines!"
Scratching his head, Zhao Shuo continued. "In the past two days, I went to meet Sharma and have a good talk with him, trying to convince him to persuade Chola to promote this salary system."
"Yes, yes, then thank you very much. Thank you, Lord Wang. Sakya kept kowtowing to Zhao Shuo.
"Okay, don't patronize and thank me, if the gold mine can't produce and the money is paid at the end of the month, I can ask you." Zhao Shuo said.
"Don't worry, the prince will never lose money, if you accompany the money, I will use this head to make amends to the prince." Sakya said with a resolute face.
"Okay, let's go down and get busy, I'll clean up and go north to find you Sharma immediately!" Zhao Shuo waved his hand and sent Sakya away.
After Sakya left, Yelupu asked Zhao Shuo a question. "Why did the prince do this for the sake of the people of Zhuluo?"
Faced with Yelupu's incomprehension, Zhao Shuo only said four words. "All people are equal!"
