Chapter 398 Settlement of Wages
In the tight room, Shopkeeper Yang asked people to prepare tea, "I don't know what can I do for the girl?" ”
Jiang Qianyue took two sips of the cup and the shopkeeper Yang, "I want to save some silver, and I hope the shopkeeper will help me see how to save it." ”
As she spoke, she gestured to Yi Xueqing beside her, "Xueqing." ”
Seeing Yi Xueqing untie the burden on her body, she took out a delicate wooden box from it and handed it to Shopkeeper Yang, "Your Excellency, please take a look." ”
Shopkeeper Yang carefully took the wooden box and opened it, and what caught his eye was a silver ticket of 10,000 taels on the top, and there was a thick pile of silver tickets below, which was a lot of silver tickets.
I don't know what the denomination is, but if I think it can be put into the box, it will definitely not be a silver ticket of small denomination.
"I wonder how much silver is in this box?"
"Eight hundred thousand taels."
"Eight hundred thousand?"
Although he didn't know tens of millions of taels of silver, or even more, he knew the situation of the Xue family very well, it was just a small family that had just made a fortune.
Just some time ago, silver was still extremely scarce, and in the blink of an eye, he came to save 800,000 taels of silver, how could he not be shocked in his heart.
This Xue family is amazing!
"Yes, I don't know how to save it?" Jiang Qianyue continued to ask.
Shopkeeper Yang thought for a while, "I don't know how long the girl will have to save?" ”
"Save at least once a year, save once a year depending on the situation", this is the condition for grandma to agree to donate, and she must save at least half of it in the money bank before she can rest assured.
"This..."
Subsequently, the two discussed how to access the silver ticket and the interest on it.
On the other side, Xue Xuanjing took a few people to inform the heads of various villages and towns or teams to receive wages the day after tomorrow.
Of course, it is said that they are going to notify them, and it is impossible for them to notify them one by one.
You know, now you have to go around the foot of the sweet potato mountain and the other surrounding sweet potato fields, even if you run by horse-drawn cart, you have to run for several hours.
There are more than 100,000 people working here, and there are only a few hundred people in each village, and they really need to notify every place, and they are afraid that they will have to notify them for several days.
When planning this more than 100,000 acres of sweet potato land, the Xue family divided this land.
More than 100,000 acres of land is divided into ten districts, six sweet potato hills, and four sweet potato fields rented around and built.
Each district has a stewardship and continues to be partitioned.
There are six districts on this side of Sweet Potato Mountain, each of which is divided into ten small blocks, namely District A, District 1, District 2, and District 10.
In this block, because the fields are more concentrated, there are more people in each district, but the scope is slightly smaller.
The four districts on the sweet potato field are each divided into eight small blocks, namely Geng 1 District, 2 District, and Huang 8 District.
Because the land here is built up in patches, the fields are relatively scattered, and there are few people in charge, but the scope is large.
Each community also has a sub-office, which is directly responsible for the management of the villagers or groups in each village under its jurisdiction.
The Stewardship of each Region is responsible for the communities under its jurisdiction.
There is another general management office, which is in charge of ten districts, and this general management office is not far from the Xue family, and it is also the place where the Xue family sisters stay every day.
What Xue Xuanjing had to do was to go to the general manager's office with the certificate stamped with the letter, let them stamp and transcribe it in various ways, and finally let them deliver it to the ten districts, and then let them pass it down to the person in charge of each village or group.
After the stewards have thoroughly conveyed it in place, they will be passed back level by level and reported to the general manager's office, and Xue Xuanjing will solve any problems.
Of course, just a notice, it is still relatively easy, the most difficult thing is the settlement of wages, even if the Xue family's accounts are clear, but when the accounts are too large, there will always be all kinds of problems, and Xue Xuanjing will be busy at that time.
As soon as the district management office received the above news, the manager led two of his subordinates to drive ox carts to the village stations to publicize.
Communication between the upper two levels was carried out by horses, and only they used ox carts at the base level.
When they came to the station in charge of a certain village, the voices of several people rang out in unison with the gong.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"...
"Three brothers Liang, three brothers Liang, please come to the resident center, please come to the resident center..."
"Settle the wages in advance, settle the wages for digging sweet potatoes and sweet potato stalks, in advance..."
As their words spread, for a moment, the whole station cheered, and taking the silver was definitely the happiest moment for them.
But there are also people who are puzzled.
I saw a woman washing sweet potatoes, holding the corner of gauze in one hand, and reaching into the cloth bag with the other hand to stir the sweet potato pulp in the bag, but her eyes were looking excitedly in the direction they came.
"Aunt Chen, why did you suddenly settle your salary, didn't you say before that you would wait for the sweet potato noodles to be ground and settle together?"
Another person who cleaned up the sweet potato residue followed, "Yes, Steward Chen, why is it so sudden." ”
The middle-aged woman laughed and quipped, "Aren't you happy to let everyone get the money earlier?" ”
"Happy, of course happy, it's just that this happiness came too suddenly, we're a little curious, hehe", the man almost smiled.
"It's not that the Xue family is good, I am grateful for the poverty of some people's families, maybe they are waiting for this silver to save the emergency, don't you want to send the money early, so that the big guys can get the hard-earned money early, but I am also afraid that you will be in a hurry!"
"The Xue family is a good person, in the past, everyone tried their best to delay the wages, and the Xue family was in a hurry to send us money, haha..."
"Yes, yes, what a living bodhisattva..."
。。。
As they spoke, an excited voice suddenly sounded in the crowd.
"Liang San is here, Liang San is here..."
As the voice fell, a young man walked out of the crowd and greeted the middle-aged woman enthusiastically, "Oh, Aunt Chen, why haven't you seen you for a day, your complexion looks better." ”
"What a young man, this mouth is really sweet, what is not ugly, auntie has not always been like this", the woman happily patted the young man's arm, and her face was full of smiles.
The two teased a few words, and the young man returned to the topic, "I just heard from them that the Xue family is going to pay wages early?" ”
"Yes, the money for digging sweet potatoes and making sweet potato stalks came first, remember that around the end of the day after tomorrow, bring the vouchers and accounts to my place to receive the salary, it is best to call the second child of your village, he can read a few words, and it is easier to reconcile."
The young man hurriedly nodded, "Understood, understood, bring it with you then, and besides, let's rest assured that the Xue family is doing things, we will definitely not rely on us, hehe." ”
"It's sweet in your mouth..."
After notifying this piece, Steward Chen and the others got on the ox cart again and went to the next place.
She had been to every place, and when she returned to the steward's office, she asked people to reply to the letter.
