Shi Bufan immediately began to exchange data with county officials in several counties in the Gyeonggi region of Chang'an, and found that the situation was not optimistic. There are almost no less than 2,000 unemployed people in the surrounding counties www.biquge.info. This made their faces gloomy, for these two thousand men were strong laborers, and they were all heads of the family! In ancient times, men were the main source of income, and a man often had to support at least three or four people after his death. Especially the wife, the two children are the least, and some even have the elderly. Therefore, there are more than 2,000 people, and there are almost several times the number of people waiting to be fed.

If the employment of these men is not solved, the consequences will really cause a lot of problems. Fortunately, they have not been unemployed for too long now, and everyone's surplus food can support them for a while. But once the surplus food can't support it in the future, it's really going crazy. What's even more terrifying is that Shi Bufan is worried that this unemployment rate problem will destroy the fruits of his reform and lose everything.

The biggest loophole in this cooperative is land ownership, and the legal name of this cooperative is based on the "voluntary" formation of the people, and in principle, they can withdraw freely. However, once they lose their jobs, the people will inevitably remember the benefits of the small-scale peasant economy in the past, and they will take back the land they have in the cooperatives, so that once the cooperatives set a bad example, the dissolution of the cooperatives may become inevitable.

"Keeping jobs is protecting the fruits of my reforms? What should I do next? Shi Bufan began to ponder.

However, Shi Bufan quickly thought of some solutions, which are actually very simple, build some labor-intensive enterprises, so as to solve the employment problem.

Shi Bufan found the county officials from several surrounding counties and held a meeting in the Qin's restaurant in Chang'an.

"Brother Liu, fellow brothers, I think you have also encountered a lot of unemployed people who drink and make trouble. We must pay attention to this matter, which is related to the livelihood of almost tens of thousands of people in the counties around us in the future, and this is inevitable. Especially in the future, if we extend it to the whole country and extend our Gyeonggi model to the whole country, once the problem breaks out in the whole country, then we are afraid that we will be in trouble. We can't have this kind of thing, we have to solve the stable income of these people, otherwise we will all be unlucky! Shi Bufan said.

These counties nodded their heads, and they relied on this "Gyeonggi model" invented by the time to make profits. According to this model of the times, the harvest in various parts of the Gyeonggi region will definitely be very high, and the county officials in these areas will definitely achieve great results. If nothing else, they can at least move up one level next year. They are all beneficiaries of this model, so these county officials are also the same "interest group" as Shi Bufan, and this matter must be solved and this production model cannot be problematic.

"I've thought of a way to get businessmen to work in positions that require a lot of labor. For men, for example, I would ask businessmen to invest some money and start some furniture and wood workshops. This will absorb a lot of strong labor and give them a stable harvest! Shi Bufan said.

But Liu Renliang immediately asked: "Furniture? Can the people afford it? ”

Another county said: "I can afford it, and recently many people are also discussing waiting for the autumn harvest to buy a lot of furniture." Even when the people have money to spare, they want to be able to buy a lot of things. There are also many people who want to hire someone to rebuild their houses. ”

"Well, since the people want to repair the house, then we might as well let the people form a construction team by themselves. Since the government doesn't need them to serve, they are also doing this kind of civil engineering thing, since they don't do it for the government, can't they use it to build houses for the people? Shi Bufan continued.

Many county officials also nodded, which is obviously a solution. After the people have money, they naturally need to rebuild the house, so that some people can solve the problem of repairing the house. What's more, this civil engineering is their profession, and it is also a good way. To make furniture, to cut wood, to process wood, is also a manual work, requires a lot of manpower, can completely absorb a large number of people employment.

"Of course, we can't just focus on the strong people. In fact, women can also do it, and women can go out to do things when they use it. Since we changed this approach, a large number of women have faced the consequences of idleness. Originally, men ploughed and women weaved, and women weaved at home, but now women hardly do weaving, because they used to weave for themselves. However, now that the price of clothes purchased outside has been reduced, there is naturally no need for it. Recently, however, I've heard some garment dealers complain that it's hard to buy cloth these days. They used to have to go to every house to buy cloth, but now many women don't do weaving anymore, so they can't buy weaving. In addition, my assembly line method is adopted, which makes the clothing production speed much faster, and the cloth used is extremely huge. ”

"More and more cloth is being used, but women are also less and less interested in weaving. It won't be long before the weaving runs out. On the contrary, the people's demand for clothes has become bigger and bigger, and at present, those ready-to-wear tailors have received more and more reservations, and the people are about to have a bumper harvest, so they have come to order. The tailors were under a lot of pressure and couldn't get much of the cloth they could get from. ”

"We might as well let the merchants build a unified weaving workshop, and then take in all the idle women in the homes of the people in the counties around us, so that they will have enough work, and then we will have to pay for the employment. In this way, they don't rely on the labor of the man in the family to feed themselves, so that two people can feed together, isn't there a lot less pressure? ”

"As for the elderly, some of them may be able to take care of their children. If you don't have to take children, you can also do some simple things, such as folding clothes, which is easy and does not require too much physical strength, although the income may be less, but it is obviously able to subsidize the family! ”

"Black, it's black!" Many people faced it in their hearts and gave an evaluation when they were extraordinary.

This time is really dark enough, and he doesn't even let go of the old man's ability, and he actually wants to squeeze out the old man's work ability. In the eyes of many people, this woman is just honest and honest in her husband and children, but Shi Bufan even prepares women to arrange jobs, and even refuses to let go of the old man's residual labor, which is really exploitative.

If it was in the past, I'm afraid I would have scolded Shi Bufan as a cool official a long time ago. However, I am afraid that the people will still go in a hurry, because Shi Bufan has given them an important means of livelihood. In this way, everyone's family income sources are no longer separate, but diversified. Men can do jobs like furniture and wood, or they can work as civil workers. As for women, they can later go to work in the textile industry, so that they can earn a part of the wealth that can be used to support their families. In this way, one person had to support several people, but now those women not only do not have to support their own men, but can also use an additional part to subsidize the family.

Of course, the original mode of production would have been unthinkable before the implementation of this cooperative system. Since the adoption of the cooperative system, the rational allocation of human resources has saved a lot of human and material costs, and women have been liberated from the family without worrying too much.

"As for the fear that there are no women to take care of the children, there is no need to worry about this. We can let some people take care of the children alone, and we can even use a part of our wealth to subsidize the enlightenment of those children. Although I dare not say how advanced I am, at least I can still do it. As long as it takes two or three years to become literate, then they can start learning on their own in the future, and we don't have to worry about them not being able to learn. As for the family when they go out to do things, they can entrust it to the school, and they can go home together every night, so it will not affect the family reunion. ”

Of course, Shi Bufan will not let go of this opportunity to cultivate the literacy of the children of those peasant people. Of course, it is only literacy, and it is not possible to achieve non-transactional at present. Give them literacy after two or three years, so that they can get more opportunities to learn on their own in the future, as long as they study on their own, they can go to the library to read books on their own, and they don't have to worry about what they can't learn on their own. Even if you are self-taught, there will be many people who are reborn.

Shi Bufan is obviously not polite like this, and he directly wants to squeeze out all the labor. Maybe in the eyes of others, you are oppressing, but Shi Bufan doesn't think so. In ancient times, not only was there not a shortage of labor, but a large amount of labor was wasted. The ancient way of organizing production was a waste of labor. Shi Bufan changed the way production was organized, which led to increased productivity. If women do not work, this will certainly amount to negative income growth. If women don't work, it's the burden of supporting their families falling on ordinary men. However, if a woman has a job, not only does she not have to bear the pressure of raising her, but she can also supplement her family.

As for whether it will make some "machismo" people feel dissatisfied, but Shi Bufan doesn't care about this. Because the so-called "machismo" is based on certain economic conditions, if a man himself cannot fully support his family, then he will not have the capital to prevent his women from going out to work. That kind of senseless "machismo" is bound to compromise in the face of economic pressure. At present, the Tang Dynasty is not rich enough for them to be qualified to have "machismo"!

"The people are now getting richer and need more than just a subsistence. As their incomes increased, they had to live in better, stronger, warmer houses, and wear better clothes. Even their people, who could not afford to buy clothes, can now follow suit. Someone has to do this, otherwise we will not be able to meet the needs of the people. Rather than rushing when the time comes, it is better for us to take the initiative to solve it. Now that there are still four or five months before the autumn harvest, then we can organize the people to work with the merchants in advance, so that these clothes and furniture can be produced in advance, so that we can naturally solve the employment needs at that time. If they have a steady harvest, they won't be idle anymore. And our cooperatives will not be dissolved. ”

In order to solve this employment, Shi Bufan is actually to maintain the disintegration of cooperatives, and this land issue is a problem that cannot be bypassed. Now Shi Bufan does not dare to touch the Tang Dynasty's Juntian system, this Juntian system is the basic system of the Tang Dynasty, and whoever dares to touch it casually will be unlucky. Shi Bufan hopes to solve the employment problem for those unemployed people, so that they can forget about the land for a while. As long as the land is forgotten for a while, then the cooperative can continue to be maintained, and when everyone has adapted to this kind of life, then naturally there will be nothing to be afraid of. The key is just adaptation, and any change in productivity is not adaptable at the beginning, as long as it adapts.

As for those who are unwilling to change, they will inevitably be swept away by the rolling torrent of history, and no one can stop the progress of history.

"Industry and commerce, it's out. Industry and commerce do not mean that development can be developed, it is not so much that industry and commerce are actively developed, but that they are forced out! If industry and commerce are not developed, it will not be able to absorb the employment pressure of the growing population, and it will not be able to absorb the large number of people who have lost their jobs because of the progress of productive forces. ”

"Hey, traveling back to the early Tang Dynasty to develop industry and commerce, but not developing agriculture as a foundation, it is really speechless!"

The more Shi Bufan studied macroeconomics, the more he knew that agriculture is the foundation, and agriculture is the foundation of all industries. Humanity has to survive first, and it is impossible to develop too much industry and commerce without sufficient productivity. Maybe ordinary people just see the industry making money, but if there is no agricultural productivity as a basis, then everything is in the air. Too many time-traveling novels allow the protagonist to blindly engage in commerce through ancient times, without distinguishing between dynasties, and blindly engaging in business, so how can he succeed? When it comes to developing business, it is also necessary to develop agriculture first. Without agriculture, the industry would not be able to rise and have enough foundations to support it.

"But, Brother Shi Xian, what should we do? Since Shi Xiancheng wants to do this business and industry, how do we bring the people together. How to open the way! When the time comes, people will move around in several counties around us, so how will we open the way? If there is no guide, the people will not be able to move in our Gyeonggi area, and I am afraid that they will not be able to work! Otherwise, all kinds of road guides and interrogations are easy to be checked everywhere by the people of the imperial court, which is also a problem! Liu Renliang said. (To be continued.) )
