There are many things that are not easy to sort out.

Managing 10,000 people and managing a million people is completely different, just like a good commander, you may not be able to be a good general.

Qin Shaoyou used to take care of Meng Jin in an orderly manner, and at that time, he also felt that he was very human and talented, but now, he realized that he was a mayfly shaking a tree, and the increase in the population of geometric numbers meant the burden of increased geometric numbers.

Fortunately, he has Wang Ju.

Wang Ju is very resourceful, and he is also good at the exchange of official documents on the case, but he has also felt struggling recently, but after slowly adjusting, he has finally become handy.

However, Wang Ju has a fatal flaw, so when Qin Shao lobbied to find a way for so many people to live, it was difficult and difficult, he just smiled bitterly, he was good at governance, but not good at industry and commerce. Stabilizing the locality, maintaining law and order, stabilizing people's hearts, and promoting education are the things that the children of the scholar clan who are born in the noble clan and have been nurtured by their fathers for a long time are good at it, but finding work for others is really not his strong point.

The reason why Qin Shaoyou found it difficult, the first difficulty at the beginning of this is also this, he was at first to promote animal power, and at the same time reduce the price of grain and land, so that not only can increase the production efficiency of farmers, but also can promote the prosperity of industry and commerce, but the problem is that after the promotion of animal power, there is no need for so many people in the countryside, a family of four or five people, guarding thirty acres of thin fields, is still stretched, so the spare labor force, will inevitably pour into Mengjin and the county seat of each county, if these people are not handled well, It is an idler, and it is the source of turmoil, but if it is dealt with, it is the continuous driving force of the entire Mengjin, and it is the cornerstone of the strength of the Shence Mansion.

Then the question arises. In the past, when Mengjin was in the past, Qin Shaoyou only needed to find a way out for tens of thousands of laborers, which was very simple, he could do a few big deals, and he could accommodate everyone and specialize in one place. The growth of an industry is enough for everyone to live and work in peace and contentment, such as tea, for example, popsicles, as long as Mengjin has several advantageous industries, it is enough for everyone to have no worries about food and clothing. But the problem is that if the number of this labor force increases by hundreds of thousands.

At least for now, this is an astronomical amount for Qin Shaoyou, in fact, it is a problem for Meng Jin now. There are already some clues, because after all, the industry is single, and a large number of idle laborers have begun to pour in, which has led to an increase in labor, and the price of wages has begun to gradually fall. There are still a few people who grabbed their heads and broke their blood, and they used to beg grandpa to sue grandma for labor. Now it is the other way around, as a result, not only have there been many displaced people in the city, but also the quality of life of the original Mengjin people has begun to decline sharply.

It's not enough to breed discontent, but if you ignore it, you'll have to wait until it bursts out. But it's not good. The only good thing is that after Qin Shaoyou lowered the price of grain, he used agriculture to feed the industry and commerce in the city, although the general salary everywhere has declined, but the price of rice is much cheaper than before. There is always something that people can barely make ends meet.

Looking for jobs for hundreds of thousands of people, thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou had a terrible headache, he finally began to face up to his own problems, and had to re-plan for Hongnong.

On the one hand, it is natural to recruit a group of elite samurai, and the size of the Shence army must be more than 10,000 people, which can alleviate the current predicament. And what else?

In the past, the Qin family's industry was dominant, although there were also some businessmen who learned from the Qin family to make small troubles and set up some workshops, but these were just the roles of drinking soup behind the Qin family, and they couldn't absorb so many workers.

Apparently...... Attracting a large number of people to invest is the most important thing.

How to attract, it seems to have become a problem, this Tang Dynasty, there are a lot of rich people, giants everywhere, if you let them mix with the sale of tea, they have to break the head, but ordinary production, interested in people are not many, after all, the workshop is not easy to build, not only to recruit workers, but also to look around for production tools, but also need to think about selling the goods, no matter how big or small you have to worry about, and if you are not careful, you may have to post all the capital.

To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a problem of not being attractive enough, everyone is not a fool, those giants, in fact, the vast majority, are relying on the door to make money, or relying on the scholars and gate valves, eating some leftovers, or relying on hoarding goods, this kind of money, earn worry-free, and it is easier to generate huge profits, after all, in this era of inconvenient transportation, you transport the goods to two hundred miles away, it is a specialty, a specialty, this thing, it is valuable, why do you have to spend so much money and effort to do that thankless thing?

In essence, everything is just a good word, and it is impossible for Qin Shaoyou to give away the beneficial things, and everyone refuses to give up the things that can be unprofitable.

It is impossible for Qin Shaoyou to sell tea and popsicles.

Then the only way is to create the illusion of prosperity.

Qin Shaoyou pondered for a moment, and suddenly said to Wang Ju: "Mr. Wang, Hongnong County is now in ruins, and now, since Chang'an is about to make trouble, take advantage of these times, we might as well do a few big things, how about it?" ”

Wang Ju said: "What does Your Highness want to do?" ”

Qin Shaoyou said: "First, to build roads, all counties must open up canals and ......connect them."

Wang Ju was taken aback and said, "This ...... Over the years, we have spent a lot of money, and this canal development is not much more than the cost of building a city. ”

Wang Ju is telling the truth, the counties are connected, this is hundreds of miles of rivers, the original river needs to be widened, the shallow places need to dig out sediment, not to mention the materials spent, just manpower, this is astronomical.

Qin Shaoyou shook his head and said: "Secondly, it is to build post pavilions in ten miles away from each county, which is specially used for business travelers to rest, and it is managed by the household, on the one hand, it is more convenient to convey official documents, and on the other hand, it can also be used for business travelers along the way to rest." ”

Qin Shaoyou's idea of ten miles of road pavilion is to promote commerce, which is also a matter of no way, in many places, it is simply a barren land, and because of this, it is easy to breed bandits, those are places that the government can not control, but the establishment of road pavilions everywhere can effectively manage some dead ends, so that ordinary people go out, as long as it is in Hongnong County, it is much more convenient and safe.

Qin Shaoyou said: "There are wharves everywhere that must be built, not only that, but the post roads everywhere must also be repaired, the river embankments must be reinforced, the places where there is a shortage of water must be responsible for digging wells, and the schools in each county ......"

Qin Shaoyou is like a few treasures, and he is very happy to say.

Wang Ju listened, but was startled.

This is really the ancestor who spends money, and the gold and silver mountains are not enough to play like this, although the current Shence Mansion still has a surplus, but doing so many things at once, it is difficult to say whether it can ensure the balance of income and expenditure on the accounts, but once the income and expenditure of the accounts are uneven, this is terrible.

Qin Shaoyou seemed to be still unsatisfied, and felt that there was really nothing else to do, and finally couldn't help but say: "It seems that there are only so many, all in all, the things that should be raised, there must be no less, how much it will cost, you ask someone to settle the account." ”

Wang Ju was taken aback: "I'm afraid that there will be no less than tens of millions." "This is still a conservative number, there are too many things, there are some things he doesn't have time to calculate, just talking about opening up the canal, this is a huge amount of work, I don't know how much it will cost.

Qin Shaoyou also seemed to be an old god: "It's just so much? ”

Wang Ju thought for a while: "But the Shence Mansion, I'm only afraid of ......"

"With so many projects, how can it be built in a day or two, the money, we can save it slowly, but things have to be done, you have to arrange this matter, you have to rush to the council hall before the meeting hall is promulgated, and the matter is implemented, and the council hall will be full of complications when the time comes."

Wang Ju saw Qin Shaoyou's resolute attitude, but he only shook his head: "The student will let people try it first, and then calculate how much it will cost." ”

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Sending Qin Shaoyou away, Wang Ju felt that it was not easy at all, this Qin Shaoyou is a person who does great things, otherwise how could he have such a big appetite, but Wang Ju is a little worried, if he continues to do this, wouldn't he learn from Emperor Yang of Sui, so happy, and in the end it may cause great trouble.

Thinking of this, Wang Ju's heart was heavy.

However, he didn't dare to slack off, he hurriedly returned to the inner history room of the Shence Mansion, and ordered a few directors of the money and grain room to come to see him, and roughly explained what Qin Shaoyou wanted to say, these few directors couldn't help but be speechless, and some people said: "What a huge project this is, the amount is even far above the city building, and now I have to do so many things, I'm afraid that ......"

Wang Ju was also upset, but he had to say: "This is His Highness's order, I want to persuade it, but is it useful to persuade it?" All in all, first calculate the approximate expenses and make a detailed rule, and then you can figure out the money and food yourself, and call the people in the workshop. ”

These people in the workshop were full of joy, and when the manager Yang Wulian heard this, his eyes were glowing, and he felt incredulous: "Mr. Wang, did Your Highness really order this?" ”

Wang Ju couldn't help but be a little angry: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Yang Wulian smiled and said: "No, no, no, there is no intention of making fun of it, but if His Royal Highness has made up his mind, the lower officials will naturally have to work hard." (To be continued......)
