Chapter 287: Many benefits
"I came to you today because I have something to discuss with you."
Early in the morning, Yun Xuan came to the refugees outside the city and asked Libu to find all the prestige people among these refugees.
This era is a bit like the tribal system, where one person in a group is respected by all.
In his previous life, Yun Xuan lived in the countryside, and there was a respected person in the village, and he would be consulted about anything in the village.
That's right, it's the village chief.
Of course, in addition to the village chief, there is also such a person, who has a good character, is very old, and speaks very much in the village.
If you want to mobilize the people to build the river, you don't have to think about it, Yun Xuan knows that there must be some thorns who take the lead in opposing it, after all, no one wants to do the things that endure hardship.
Of course, Yun Xuan can also find hundreds of people who are willing to do it, but Yun Xuan wants to build the river as quickly as possible.
Then these people are not enough at all, and Yun Xuan still builds two rivers, and the manpower is greatly reduced.
A few hundred people is too little, and more people need to be involved in order to achieve Yun Xuan's desired goal within a month.
"Your Excellency, you say"
Picked up the pen and wrote a few key points on the blackboard, and then Yun Xuan explained them one by one.
"You also know that the flood is troubling the people now, and if the flood is not brought away, the people will not be able to return to normal life.
These days, the king took the people of the Ministry of Works to survey along the way, and found that building a river in the place of Gaodu was the best choice.
Therefore, the king intends to build a river in the Governor starting tomorrow, but the king needs a lot of people to participate in it.
The king wants you to talk to them when you go back, so that they will be willing to participate in the construction of the river.
If the river is built as soon as possible to divert the flood waters, everyone can live a good life. ”
"My lord, we can understand what you mean, but these people have not had a full meal for a long time.
I don't know how many infirm people there are, and if they are allowed to build a river, I am afraid they will not be able to accept it."
"That's right, my lord, we all see your goodness, but those who were officials before also let the people work.
Not only did they not let us have enough to eat, but they also made us do hard work, and after exhausting many people, we couldn't do it."
"Now people are scruples about doing work, and trying to convince them is not a one-day effort."
"The king can understand what everyone means, and this king will guarantee you as a prince.
As long as the people who come to participate in the construction of the river, everyone eats three meals a day, and this king does not dare to say that there is meat for every meal, but he guarantees to eat meat once every three days.
In addition, all those who participated in the construction of the river were responsible for the imperial court after the flood receded. Let them give priority to building houses, and the court will give them one hundred catties of grain and two taels of silver at one time.
All the people who participated in the construction of the river will have a consistent amount of money every month. This king will also discuss with the superintendent of the national school Zhang Siye, and come up with five places to allow their children to enter the national superintendent.
This king will give you two places, and three places for the people who participated in the construction of the river, how"
"This is the best school in the national capital"
"I heard that the teachers there are all master-level, if you can worship the master, this life will be promising."
"Your Excellency, you are serious."
These people have bright eyes, and they may not be very concerned about money.
can enter the national school supervision to study, which is a good thing that has never been encountered in eight lifetimes.
If his children can enter the national school superintendent, this is a glorious ancestor, but it is the most glorious thing in the village.
The family will also raise their eyebrows because of this, and they can also leave a strong mark on the family tree.
"This king has made a promise, you can go back and discuss, whoever convinces the most people, this quota will be given to whomever he wants.
However, if someone dares to coerce the people and force the people, and is discovered by the king, the king will not allow the second generation of his descendants to participate in the imperial examination. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, we will never do this" Many people heard Yun Xuan's words, and their eyes flashed with disappointment.
The glow of the sun, through the branches and leaves of the trees swaying in the breeze, forms a dappled light and shadow, like broken gold and silver, shining and eye-catching.
By the time Yun Xuan had finished discussing with these representatives, the sun was high in the sky, exuding its charming charm all the time.
"Distribute these to the soldiers and have them read them out at the factory every two hours"
Yun Xuan took out some leaflets similar to modern times and handed them to Libu, and then went to the factory.
Brought Zheng Ku with him, and at the same time, Yun Xuan asked people to build a temporary place near the factory as a registration office.
"Adult"
"Adult"
……
Waving his hand, signaling that they didn't need to be polite, Yun Xuan said in a moist voice.
"People, this king has already communicated with the household department, and the food will arrive soon, so you don't have to worry.
You also know that in order to solve the problems of your life, food alone is useless, and the flood must be solved in order for you to return to normal life.
The king has already had people survey, and the only way to do this is to build a river to divert the flood waters. This king also knows that in the past, many of you here have been deceived and bullied.
But now it's different, now that this king is here, he will never let this happen again. Although there is not much contact between this king and you, you should also know what this king has done here.
The king tells you that all the people who participated in the construction of the river should have a fixed monthly sum of money, three meals of rice a day, and meat once every two days. After the construction of the river was completed, the imperial court would send people to give priority to the construction of the houses of those who participated in the construction of the river.
The imperial court will give these people a hundred catties of grain and two taels of silver at a time to help these people recover as quickly as possible and live their own lives.
In addition, the king will take out the quota of the three national school supervisors, and as long as one of you performs well and endures hardships, the king will give him this place.
You should know what it means to be able to go to the National School Inspectorate.
The opportunity is right in front of you, and if you don't work hard for yourself, you have to work hard for your children and future generations.
All the people who want to participate in the construction of the river can go to Zheng Ku to sign up, and if you don't know, there will be soldiers to tell you. ”
After telling the people about these benefits, Yun Xuan left the men's house and went to the women's house.
There are people who do the work, and the back office is also very important.
As the saying goes, the division of labor between men and women is matched, and the work is not tiring
"This thing is really fake, not only let us have enough to eat, but also give us money"
"It should be true, I heard that this lord is a prince, there is no need to lie to us poor people"
"Superintendent of the National School, I heard that this is the best school in the world, if my son can go in and study, he can wake up with a smile in his dreams."
"Didn't they say the same before Lao Tao died?"
Hearing the name Lao Tao, these people were silent and silent, with hatred and sadness in their eyes.
When the "adults" saw Yun Xuan coming, many busy women knelt down to say hello.
"Get Up"
"What about the others" Yun Xuan glanced around and found that half of the women were not here.
"I don't know, maybe there's something else."
The woman shook her head, don't look at them living together, two people next to each other don't necessarily know what each other's names are.
With a wave of his hand, Yun Xuan asked the soldiers to call the women back.
"The king has called you back because he wants to discuss with you, and he plans to tear down the porridge and make it into a meal.
Your daily task, in addition to cooking and delivering to the people who built the river, is to soak all the bowls and all the clothes in hot water and salt.
The king will provide you with salt, so you don't have to worry about that. This king also heard that some bad things happened before, but since this king came here, then this king is in charge.
This king will never deceive a common people, and all the women who participate in the work will have a consistent monthly payment, and when the river is completed, the court will come forward to give each of you a hundred catties of grain and two taels of silver.
In addition, priority will be given to building houses for you, and this king will also take out three places for the superintendent of national studies to reward those who perform the best and bear hardships and stand hard work. ”
"If anyone wants to participate, you can go to Master Zheng at the door today to register your name, and tomorrow, someone will arrange for you to work."
After telling all the women the news, Yun Xuan went to say hello to Zheng Ku again.
"Master Zheng, I'm going to trouble you a lot these days."
"Prince Yin is polite, and it is also appropriate to be able to contribute to his humble position," Zheng Ku said.
"Thank you for your understanding."
The matter is almost settled, and the rest of the matter is to accompany Lord Hai to act and drink some wine.
"You said that Prince Yin planned to build a river in Gaodu to divert the flood away" Hyde was surprised, thinking that Yun Xuan was just coming to walk a scene.
But looking at the way it looks now, it seems to be different from what Hyde expected.
"Yes, my lord, and Prince Yin also dismantled the porridge and made it into a meal, and gave the people rice three times a day, and gave him a consistent monthly money for each person," Kusoba said.
"When will the food from the household department arrive?"
Nowadays, adults who drink porridge twice a day can't hold on, let alone three meals of rice a day?
If the food doesn't come again, the people of Haida will not be able to hold on, and then the people will have to protest again, and they will be scolded.
"The people who sent it out haven't come back yet, if only they hadn't sold food in the first place," Kusoba sighed.
"It's not you yet, listening to the wind is the rain. Okay, this thing is rotten in the stomach, and I won't let you and me lose our heads" Hyde glared at the blades of grass.
If I hadn't sold the grain privately, I wouldn't have had such a headache now.
The money was not earned, but it was so frightened that he was afraid that he would be discovered.
"My lord, Prince Yin said that he had prepared a banquet for you to go" Here, a servant walked in and said.
"I know, let's go down" Hyde frowned, he had nothing to do, it was difficult to ask for something for himself.
After taking care of the matter at hand, Hyde went to the banquet.
"Let you go today, this king is really hard to say." Yun Xuan's face was as difficult as a face.
"Could it be that the inspector has encountered some problems?"
"To tell you the truth, the king intends to build a river to divert the flood waters, so that the king can return sooner.
But I didn't expect that the river that was built needed to pass through some fertile fields, and this king inquired, and these fields were all in the boss's.
This king knows that the good land is very important to you, and this king is willing to give the corresponding silver, I don't know if you bosses can cede a part of the good land."
The bosses narrowed their eyes, although these fields could be given up to them, but if they didn't show a difficult appearance, wouldn't it make Yun Xuan think that he was very generous.
Who knows what the next questions will be.
"I don't know how much space the inspector needs to occupy," one boss said.
"It's about 1.5 feet wide and hundreds of miles long. But rest assured, the king will save as much as he can, and when the flood waters recedes, he will order it to be filled. ”
