Chapter 82: The Three Great Decrees [Second Update]
"My lord, our brother is willing to serve the adults and serve the dogs and horses, but my lord, Hu Decai ...... him."
"Don't worry, I'll give you an explanation in as little as three months, or as much as half a year, okay, you brothers continue to drink, and I still have some important things to deal with!"
Shen Mufeng walked out of the cell after speaking, and the two people in the cell looked at each other, both of them were a little relieved, but Zhang Fakui was still a little nervous, looked at Xue Ling and asked hesitantly: "Big brother, my lord asked me to go to the state city, and I also moved my family to it, will it ......?"
Xue Ling shook his head: "No, adults won't harm you and me, otherwise they wouldn't say so much, with the strength of adults, it's easy to kill you and me, and I won't do it again." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
I guess the adults must have made some arrangements, you are acting secretly in the state city, there must be something big for you to do, if you seize this opportunity and do a good job for the adults, you kid is really the time to run!"
Although it is a word of comfort to Zhang Fakui, but Zhang Fakui's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, in Zhang Fakui's heart, this county magistrate is the master of his word, since the adult came to Wanshan County, the adults have seen everything they have done, so he believes in Xue Ling's words.
However, compared to Zhang Fakui, Xue Ling is much more sophisticated, although he also admires Shen Mufeng, but Xue Ling believes that there are no such pure people in this world.
In Xue Ling's opinion, adults must have some plans, but these have nothing to do with Xue Ling, as long as the adults help him avenge himself, even if the adults rebel, he is alone, as long as he can take revenge, there is nothing that cannot be abandoned.
Shen Mufeng didn't have time to pay attention to Xue Ling's thoughts, and as soon as he got out of prison, he saw Ma Sanqiang looking for him everywhere, and Ma Sanqiang was sweating all over his head at this moment, holding a roster in his hand.
"My lord, I can be regarded as finding you, and the statistics have been completed!"
Shen Mufeng came to the spirit: "How many households?"
"There are twenty-seven homeless beggars, and there are four hundred and seventy-one households that can't be opened. ”
"What's the matter, didn't the poor households give subsidies before! Why are there so many?"
Ma Sanqiang smiled bitterly: "My lord, there was a lot of food distributed last time, but the lives of the common people were too poor before, and many people owed debts!"
Shen Mufeng stumbled, but it was the same reason, but after thinking about it, Shen Mufeng became a little excited, as the old saying goes, the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, especially tomorrow is the New Year, isn't it a good time to establish prestige and increase prestige!
"Sanqiang, prepare a carriage to load grain, according to the standard of ten catties of fine grain and thirty catties of coarse grain for a household, the homeless beggar will give ten catties of coarse grain by himself, ask them if they are willing to stay in Wanshan County, if they are willing, let them go to the yamen to handle household registration after the year, go!"
"Ahh
"Ahhhh
"Oh!
Ma Sanqiang went to get busy with the catcher, while Shen Mufeng returned to the room to ponder the decrees, and it took more than half an hour to preliminarily formulate three decrees.
The first is gambling, if it is said that gambling is completely banned, it is, there are too few entertainment items here, Qinglou Casino is almost all of men's entertainment, so Shen Mufeng's rules are to prohibit gambling games of more than one or two silvers, that is to say, small gambling can, if everyone loses more than one or two silver a day, it is considered illegal, once it is illegal, the gambling funds will be confiscated, and the casino will be punished with an additional hundred taels of silver.
This is more ruthless, one or two silver a threshold, as long as someone denounces or reports, the gambling funds are confiscated, not to mention, the person who sets up the bureau will be fined an additional hundred taels of silver.
Think about it, if you really want to lose your eyes, you will go directly, and no one will think about it if you are not happy, so this trick is not ruthless.
The second decree is to prohibit the sale of human beings, abolish the status of slaves, and change the contract of slavery into an employment contract, which is mainly aimed at landlords and merchants, and only those who are so rich that they will buy slaves, and the common people are so poor that they don't have the money to buy slaves!
The third article is the introduction of the subsistence allowance law, for the poor people to enjoy the minimum living security, every quarter to give a certain amount of living subsidies, this article is relatively generous, Wanshan County is still a poor county in the final analysis, the foundation is too thin.
The only ones who can count a good life are the workers' families and the hunters, the workers' families refer to the kiln factory, the quilt factory, the shoes and hat factory, and Shen Mufeng also wants to reform the household registration and divide it into the hunter's household registration and the worker's household registration, but this is a later story.
The decree was written and directly posted, and suddenly Wanshan County blew up the pot, and there was an endless stream of people talking about it, and for ordinary people, they were naturally happy, even if many people like to gamble, but the gambling game of one or two silvers, there are really few ordinary people who can afford to play, and once the decree is implemented, people who like gambling are also guaranteed.
Compared with those who make profits from casinos, this decree is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, whose world is in Wanshan County, that is the world of Lord Shen of Zhixian County, the three major families are not hard wrists, and they are not obedient to be cleaned up.
The most ruthless is not to buy and sell human beings, restore the free status of slaves, the previous buying and selling of people, need to go to the county government to register, the slave contract to the city employment contract, that is, the completely free house slaves are gone, and now they have become servants who need to spend money to hire.
Again, ordinary people have nothing to lose, some small merchants are nothing, even if there are slaves, there are only a few people, but for those large merchants, there are dozens of domestic slaves at home, the loss is great, according to the normal employment expenses, that person is one or two silver a month, and a woman is half a tael of silver, and a month needs to pay dozens of taels more, and the money when buying slaves is also spent, it is all silver!
To say that the most painful thing is the three major families, who does not have two or three hundred house slaves, the cost of this one alone is a few hundred taels of silver per month, but the pit was dug by Shen Mufeng, so he had to pinch his nose and jump in.
Of course, what excites the ordinary people of Wanshan County the most is the last decree, which is said to be a decree, but it is better to say that it is the last straw for the people of Wanshan County.
The common people all understand a reason, ordinary people have many disasters, no one dares to say who can fall to which step, especially those hunters, since Shen Mufeng took office, the life of hunters has been improved to the maximum, but hunters are also one of the most insecure professions, if they die, the sky of the family will fall.
Now with this subsistence allowance decree, there is the most favorable guarantee, to put it mildly, today died in the mountains, and the family can also live on the minimum living security.
Therefore, as soon as Shen Mufeng's three decrees came out, even if something happened to the hunters, not only the Hunters Guild would take care of it, but they could also apply for a certificate of poor households, which alone was enough to make ordinary people crazy.
"Lord Qingtian!"
"His grandmother's, who dares to say a bad word about adults in the future, Lao Tzu will play with him!"
"Count me in!"
