On the sixth day of September in the fourth year of Chengde, Prince Ren Hongqing and Minister of Military Aircraft Zhang Ting 'Yu' jointly signed this chapter, saying that the two cases of Wuyi Lane and the Nine 'Gates' Admiral Ya 'Gate' Prison have been concluded, and it is found that they are all caused by the White Lotus Sect's secret 'chaos', and the main culprit Geng Rong and many other suspects are on the run, and the Criminal Department has been strictly ordered to issue a sea arrest document and arrest the whole country.

On September 19, the fourth year of Chengde, Shen He, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Dai Zi, the president of the Academy of Sciences of the Qing Dynasty, jointly signed a letter requesting the construction of two experimental "sexual" railways and supporting projects.

Chengde four years of October nine, the railway layout plan groundbreaking ceremony was held in Baoding, Hebei Province, Prince Ren Hongqing, Prince Yu Yunyu, Prince Zhuang Yunlu and many other dignitaries to congratulate, the next day, the steam locomotive factory in Baoding groundbreaking, October 15, two large steel plants were in Baoding and Jiangsu's Jiang'yin' line foundation laying ceremony, and the original Jingshi, Tangshan two medium-sized steel plants also began the expansion project, even with the surrounding provinces of the cement plant has begun to expand, coupled with the Ministry of Industry originally planned the construction of the highway network, The country's infrastructure has reached the peak since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, and the ensuing economic pull effect is naturally great, but at the same time, it has also brought about the problems of the young and old, the most prominent are two, one is that the huge amount of money invested is difficult to achieve results in a short period of time, and the second is that the labor force is insufficient.

After years of recuperation and the large-scale promotion of overseas varieties, the population of the Qing Dynasty has exceeded 100 million, it is said that there should be no shortage of labor, not to mention that there are more than 100,000 captured prisoners of war to participate in infrastructure construction, but the trouble is really here, no side, over the years, although the economy of the Qing Dynasty is developing very fast, but the true face of the small peasant economy has always been the same, a large number of farmers would rather face the loess with their backs to the ground to eat, rather than work in factories or construction sites, relying on the surplus population in the city in the past, It can still support the construction and operation of various factories, but as soon as the large-scale infrastructure construction is carried out, the dilemma of labor shortage has also exploded.

Although there were some signs as early as the official start of various infrastructure projects, it did not attract the attention of the officials of the Ministry of Industry, but after the 'spring' began, the vast majority of peasants who took advantage of the winter to go out to do odd jobs returned to the land, and the dilemma of labor shortage exploded in an instant. Exposed, except for the two railways because of the transfer of those prisoners of war, did not suffer too much, the rest of the large number of construction projects had to fall into a semi-halted dilemma, urgent documents came from all over the country, the officials of the Ministry of Industry were caught off guard, they couldn't help but have a headache, held several office meetings in a row, and failed to find a proper response, Shen He, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who was responsible for the heavy responsibility, could not help but be a little anxious, but the Ministry of Household refused to increase the allocation of funds, in desperation, had to ask Hongqing for help。

"This king knows about this matter, does the Ministry of Engineering have any solution to this?"

Although he holds the power of the imperial court, he also has a sharp weapon such as a "sharp knife" in his hand, but Hongqing can't guarantee everything, and he really didn't expect the labor crisis to come so quickly - with the experience of his previous life, Hongqing knows that after capitalism develops from the embryonic state to a certain scale, it will inevitably lead to a labor crisis, and the root cause is naturally the self-sufficient small-scale peasant economy, and there is already a corresponding solution to this, the problem is that the solution that Hongqing considers must have two fundamental foundations, One is that he can absolutely control the situation in the DPRK, and the other is that the market economy has formed a certain scale, and now, these two prerequisites have obviously not been met, which means that the original solution is difficult to come in handy for the time being, and if you want to deal with such a sudden crisis, you have to find another way, obviously, this is not an easy thing, and Hongqing has not been able to think about it for a while.

"Back to the prince's words, the lower officials have convened various officials to discuss several times, and have several suggestions on this matter, but they are all lacking, and it is really difficult to say that it is safe."

Shen He was unable to come up with a safe charter, so he came to Hongqing to get an idea, and when he heard Hongqing's question, he couldn't help but blush, and explained helplessly.

"Oh? Let's talk about it. ”

Infrastructure construction is the foundation of the Qing Dynasty's economic take-off, that is categorically not lost, now is just the beginning, if the labor problem can not be solved in time, the railway layout and heavy industry infrastructure will become the source of no root, it is difficult to continue, in this regard, Hongqing does not dare to take it lightly, in the case of his own thinking has not been fully considered, he would like to hear the opinions of the Ministry of Industry and other people on this matter.

"The result of the deliberations of the princes and the lower officials is threefold: first, the edict of the saint and the lower officials to requisition the people in various places, this law should be able to meet the needs of various project construction without increasing investment, but in this way, the agricultural affairs in various places may be greatly affected, and it is not a last resort, but it is impossible to do it; Second, please increase the allocation of silver taels, recruit the people, to meet the needs of construction, this law should be able to ensure that agricultural affairs are not greatly affected, but the investment may have to be doubled, the lower official has gone to the Ministry of Households, but was strictly rejected by the third elder brother, if it is not for the prince to come forward to coordinate, this policy is difficult to achieve, as for the third, the lower official thinks that it may be possible to slightly reduce the scale of construction, first to ensure the construction of key projects, the rest of the provinces of the road, bridge construction is temporarily pressed, wait for the time when the farm is idle and then start construction, so that there is no need to worry about the shortage of manpower, It's just that the progress of the construction is likely to be delayed indefinitely, and the above three strategies have their own advantages and disadvantages. ”

Hearing Hongqing's question, Shen He didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed down and carefully explained the solution discussed by the Ministry of Works.

"......Well, you can come up with these three strategies, which shows that you have already used your heart, but these three strategies are not good prescriptions in the eyes of this king, even if you can solve the temporary crisis, it is difficult to guarantee the future risk, if you have a headache to heal your head, a foot pain to cure your feet, and the consequences are unimaginable, this matter must finally find a long-term plan, although this king has some thoughts about this, but it is difficult to be thoughtful for a while, and allow this king to ponder one or two more, and then make a plan in a few days."

Hongqing listened to Shen He's statement quietly, but he was not in a hurry to comment, but silently pondered for a long time before cautiously commenting a few words.

"Yes, then the lower official will leave first."

Shen He also knew that this matter was very important, and he didn't dare to 'force' Hongqing to quickly come up with a solution.

"Well, after Lord Shen goes back, he must pay close attention to the construction of the railway, and there must be no mistakes, as for the shortage of labor, there is no need to worry about it, this king will take care of it."

Seeing that Shen He was leaving, Hongqing didn't hold back much, but just commanded in a calm voice.

"Yes, the next official will retire."

The construction of the two experimental "sexual" railways was built by Russian prisoners of war and prisoners of war from various departments in Qinghai, and in terms of labor, there was no major problem, but there were many problems in management, and Shen He did not dare to take it lightly, and after respectfully agreeing to the promise, he hurriedly took his leave.

It's really troublesome! Hongqing didn't go to send Shen He, but thought silently in the study alone, and there were many solutions that came to his mind, but when it came to practical 'sex', it was quite worrying, and he really had a headache for a while - as a traveler, Hongqing knew the history of capitalist development in that time and space in his previous life, whether it was Britain or France, Germany and other old powers, in the middle of the first industrial revolution, they all encountered labor shortages and the obstacles of the small peasant economy, and the solutions of these empires were almost exactly the same, That is to solve the problem by force, to seize the land of the peasants with the so-called "enclosure movement", and finally to crush the royal family as the representative of the small peasant economy through war, so as to achieve the victory of the bourgeois revolution and solve the problems of the small peasant economy once and for all. In Hongqing's original plan, to solve the obstacles of the small peasant economy can be divided into two steps, one is to accelerate industrialization, with the country's input to achieve the development of heavy industry, so as to achieve the modernization of agriculture, the foundation of which is land annexation, in order to form a scale and mechanization, so as to fully liberate the labor force, and this, not only takes time, but also must be Hongqing can control the overall situation, so as to control the consequences of farmers' loss of land within an acceptable range, as for the second step, is to encourage private investment, Thus generating huge employment opportunities, in order to absorb the surplus rural population, and eventually form a benign 'sex' economic foundation, and then steadily transition to the imperialist stage of the purpose, if these two steps can be achieved, the Qing Dynasty will become the world's first power is a logical thing, but the plan is planning, the plan always can't catch up with the rapid change, the current foundation has not been solidified, but the contradiction has already erupted first, how to solve it has become a thorny problem in front of Hongqing......--5aahhh+25915682-->
