Chapter 292: Public Opinion Measures
When Ao Xue was taken to the castle where Zhu Jingyuan lived, the whole person's mood was so excited that she almost jumped.
I just took the risk to give it a try, but I didn't expect to have a chance to meet the king, and it was really worth dying this time.
After Ao Xue followed Lin Zexu's secretary into the door, she was sent to a special examination room.
Lin Zexu's secretary retreated directly, and the two maidservants, Xiao Na and Erin, who were guarding the door, closed the door directly and guarded the door.
Ao Xue knew that these women should be the king's servants, and there might even be women, so she was full of envy and caution.
No matter what the identity of the other party is, they are very careful to perform the blessings in turn.
All the maids led by Chunxiang looked at the image of Aoxue, and their expressions were quite surprised.
In addition to Dongmei, who has just joined, Zhu Jingyuan's personal maidservants all have this type of clothes worn by Ao Xue.
They are all tailor-made with the best materials, and the grade is higher than that of Aoxue, I don't know how many levels.
But when they were in Zhu Jingyuan's room, they would occasionally wear and play when they were serving Zhu Jingyuan.
But no one dares to wear it directly out of the door, it is too shameless.
"This little hoof is too prodigal......"
That's the idea in almost everyone's mind.
The leader Chunxiang didn't talk much nonsense in her mouth, and took Dongmei to search Aoxue in person.
After making sure that she didn't hide anything in her clothes, he took off all the jewelry and hairpins on her body.
Make sure the woman doesn't have any hard objects all over her body.
Aoxue understands that this must be a rule, so she doesn't dare to have any resistance, and obeys and cooperates as much as possible.
Haruka didn't deliberately embarrass Aoxue either.
After the security check and confirming that she was not carrying any suspicious items, Haruka gave her time to tidy up her clothes.
He also gave her a mirror and a comb to recomb her hair and face.
If she is allowed to go to the king with all her pockets, it will be the fault of her own servants.
Chunxiang also told her the most basic rules at home in person:
"Unless Your Highness asks you to kneel down and do something, don't kneel down casually, Your Highness doesn't like to kneel and bow the most.
"You are not a servant of Your Highness, don't call yourself a slave, call yourself me or a maid, or your own name.
"Just see His Highness to give blessings, let you sit down is really let you sit, Your Highness has always acted straightforwardly.
"What Your Highness asks you, tell the truth as consciously as possible, Your Highness hates people to lie the most.
"If there is a small mistake, consciously confess and admit the mistake, most of the time it will not be punished too strictly.
"If you tell a lie and are discovered, you have to shed your skin if you don't die.
"Finally, remember not to be pretentious, that is the most annoying thing for Your Highness."
Ao Xue carefully cleaned up her appearance, and was directly stunned when she heard Chunxiang's first words.
Most of the magnates like to be bowed down and enjoy the status of their masters, but the king doesn't like it?
Is this Chunxiang Niangniang deliberately cheating herself, or is the king really like this?
However, it is completely understandable that I don't like people to lie and play tricks.
Ao Xue cleaned up her appearance, and also got a few basic reminders from Chunxiang, and then was sent to Zhu Jingyuan's conference room.
As soon as Aoxue entered the door, she saw a young man in the prince's civilian clothes, standing at the end of the conference room.
He has a tall figure, a handsome appearance, and a ...... temperament Cordial......
Looking at his eyes, he seemed to be quite expectant.
There was only one person in the room, and he was dressed in the prince's clothes, and it was obvious that this young man was the king.
However, instead of sitting on the throne of the Lord, he stood directly there.
And the whole person doesn't feel like a top nobleman, but like a university scholar from a relatively wealthy family.
This feeling made Ao Xue obviously stunned.
She instinctively thought that the king must be a very, very majestic person, a person who is extremely graceful and luxurious.
Because the king of the Great Food Country is the prince of the prince, the richest prince in the world.
How can a person with this status have this kind of temperament.
Ao Xue was full of doubts, and made a blessing as seriously as possible:
"The folk girl Aoxue has seen the king......"
Zhu Jingyuan did not sit on the chair, but stood at one end of the conference room, just instinctively and cautiously for the sake of safety.
In a relatively spacious place, when you encounter an emergency, you can immediately open your hands and feet.
Looking at the woman who came in at the door, Zhu Jingyuan looked at her image slightly.
Her face, facial features, appearance, and figure are all outstanding.
But the whole person basically does not have a soft feeling, but exudes a rather hard taste.
At first glance, it makes people think that she will be stronger, and it is likely that she will be the self-centered type.
With the professional outfit she wears, she is a bit like a strong woman in later film and television dramas.
If she is a lady of everyone, this image and temperament are okay.
It's a pity that she is just a girl, and she may not be liked by the masters and young masters of the Ming tradition.
However, Zhu Jingyuan didn't care too much about her image, after all, Zhu Jingyuan had seen too many women of her level.
The handmaidens who have been used by themselves, the handmaidens who can be used at any time, have a higher appearance and posture than her, and at the same time they are more distinctive than her, and there are also a lot of them.
As for her wearing this kind of clothes, she has seen it even more enchanting than this, and she has experienced it I don't know how much.
So there's nothing particularly unexpected about the psyche.
What Zhu Jingyuan cares about is whether it is possible for her to be really the same kind.
"Is there anything you want to say to me?"
Zhu Jingyuan asked a question that seemed inexplicable.
Zhu Jingyuan has already figured it out, he doesn't need to find the code by himself, his identity is actually public.
If other folk traversers come to him like this, they will definitely take the initiative to reveal their own identities.
Zhu Jingyuan's question made Ao Xue immediately think of Chunxiang Niangniang's reminder.
Be honest and admit your mistakes, don't lie.
Ao Xue immediately said very respectfully and decisively:
"The people's girl Aoxue sold the factory employee benefits given by the king, and also found other workers to buy welfare goods to sell, and used the money in exchange to buy the clothes, jewelry, cosmetics, and bicycles she wanted, please punish the king......"
Aoxue felt that she had done a good job, said her mistakes, sincerely admitted her mistakes, and did not make excuses.
I didn't mention the matter of the female clerk named Lin Na right away.
It doesn't make sense for me to report, and my purpose is to turn myself in, hoping to get the king's attention.
So Ao Xue secretly mentioned that she bought the clothes designed by the king.
I also came here in this kind of clothes.
But unfortunately, the king does not seem to have any reaction to the image of wearing such clothes.
Maybe I'm used to it......
Zhu Jingyuan looked at Ao Xue's reaction, and listened to her way of speaking, and immediately felt very regretful.
At the same time, I was inexplicably relieved.
The woman didn't mention anything else at all, just her own fault, and it shouldn't have been a traverser looking for her.
However, Zhu Jingyuan was still a little unwilling, so he asked promptly:
"Now that you see me, do you really just want to turn yourself in? Don't you have any other ideas? ”
Aoxue was a little confused.
What do you mean, my lord, and what else can I think?
I have only one idea.
I knew I didn't have a chance at all, so I didn't think to say it.
But you specifically asked, then that's all you can say:
"Ao Xue wants to be the king's slave girl, Ao Xue's body is still clean, and she hasn't been touched by a man......"
Zhu Jingyuan gave up completely.
The ideal that was spoken in this state of urgency turned out to be the slave girl of the king.
This kind of woman can never be a person from her own time.
But now this scene is also a bit strange.
She has an image similar to that of a later career woman, wearing a lady's formal dress similar to the workplace of the later generation, saying that she wants to be her own slave girl.
Now this environment is also a bit like a conference room from the previous life......
Zhu Jingyuan shook his head helplessly:
"There are too many people who want to be my slaves, but I don't really like slaves, so I let you go free, how can I take you as a slave again?"
Aoxue realized that she had said the wrong thing.
He and thousands of slaves had just been liberated by Zhu Jingyuan.
Chunxiang Niangniang also reminded that His Royal Highness does not like slaves.
Ao Xue once again resolutely bowed her head and admitted her mistake:
"The people's girl is wrong, please punish the king......"
Zhu Jingyuan sat back in his place, knocked on the small bell on the table, and Chunxiang and a few other maidservants immediately pushed the door in.
Zhu Jingyuan looked at Chunxiang and them:
"Haruka stays, the others go out first......"
An Xiaona waited for the maid to withdraw immediately, and Chunxiang walked to Zhu Jingyuan's side and sat down.
Haruka adjusted the recording equipment, which she was not sure if it was reliable, and also picked up the paper and pen on the table.
The long-term tacit understanding let Chunxiang know that Zhu Jingyuan called her in so much to let her record certain things.
Zhu Jingyuan occasionally thinks of some propaganda words, or talks about certain truths when talking to people.
Will let Chunxiang sort it out, make it into a script for broadcasting, and read it out with a loudspeaker in the factory.
This is the establishment and control of the position of public opinion, which imperceptibly influences the minds of the workers.
If workers were able to voluntarily refuse to resell and resell, it would be more effective than a purely high-pressure policy.
At the same time, Zhu Jingyuan himself is now in a state of practical training in governance.
The first stage of practical training in governance was supposed to be work at the village and town levels.
Although Zhu Jingyuan's situation is special, as he holds the position of king and governor, he cannot completely escape the grassroots work.
The prince must personally understand the real situation at the grassroots level, and have directly dealt with ordinary people such as workers and peasants.
Later, I will know what kind of reaction will occur at the bottom after I have made a decision at the top.
So now when he encounters a lot of small things, Zhu Jingyuan will occasionally take the initiative to do it himself.
Zhu Jingyuan turned to Ao Xue who was standing here again, and turned the topic to her matter:
"Do you think that since you know that you can change your mistakes, it must be considered good.
"And then I should just give a small punishment, or even ignore the proceeds from the resale of your benefits?
"It's a pity that I'm not a traditional scholar, and in my case, right or wrong can only determine reward or punishment.
"And the magnitude of rewards and punishments is determined by the actual gains created and the losses caused."
Ao Xue's careful thinking was exposed on the spot, and she almost knelt down and kowtowed.
However, thinking of Chunxiang's reminder, he was glared at by Zhu Jingyuan again, so he forcibly resisted the instinct to kneel:
"Slave...... The women knew that they were wrong, and the women really knew that they were wrong, and the women were willing to use the follow-up wages to compensate for the losses of the factory.
"But I don't have enough money for one month, so please allow me to pay it back for four months."
Zhu Jingyuan shook his head and said:
"Huh...... It's still four months to repay, don't you remember the rules of the factory? ”
Ao Xue really doesn't remember, otherwise she wouldn't need to be reminded by her sister Ling Shuang.
In fact, Ling Shuang couldn't remember the specific rules, but she was sure that it would definitely be against the law.
Ling Shuang instinctively wanted to use exaggeration to stop Aoxue, a stupid sister, from continuing to violate the rules.
The result didn't work at all, and Aoxue's brain was different.
Ao Xue shook her head blankly:
"Folk Girl...... I don't remember ......."
Zhu Jingyuan looked at Chunxiang, and Chunxiang directly copied Xuanke:
"Resell individual employee welfare commodities for profit, confiscate all resale proceeds, no longer enjoy employee benefits for a quarter, and are not allowed to participate in general education examinations.
"Acquisition and resale of employee welfare commodities for profit shall be punished with a fine of three times the proceeds of the resale, and employee benefits shall not be enjoyed for one year, and shall not be allowed to take the general examination.
"Taking advantage of his position, misappropriating a small amount of materials and products in the park for his own use, he will be fined five times the market value of the stolen materials, and he will no longer enjoy employee benefits for three years, and he will not be allowed to participate in the general education examination.
"Those who take the initiative to steal materials and products in the park and resell them for profit shall be fined more than 10 times the market value of the resold materials and dismissed, and depending on the severity of the situation, they will be sentenced to three to twenty years of compulsory labor, or even life and death.
"The crime you committed was the purchase and resale of employee welfare goods, and the proceeds obtained were eighty-five silver bills, and you should be fined two hundred and fifty-five silver bills, and you will not be allowed to enjoy any employee benefits within one year, and you will not be allowed to take the general education examination."
Resale and theft, self-use and profit-making, the punishment in the Mengxian factory is completely different.
The theft of goods and the sale of goods are the most severe punishments, with at least three years of compulsory labor plus a fine of ten times.
But just buying welfare goods according to the rules and then going out to sell them to individuals outside is not a particularly sensitive matter.
Because most of the welfare goods are restricted from purchase, and the actual selling price will not be lower than the cost price.
Aoxue's behavior belongs to the second gear, which is purchased and re-sold, with a fine of three times and a one-year limit.
Two hundred and fifty-five silver bills are almost a year's salary for Aoxue.
Ao Xue's brain was a little confused, but she couldn't deny it, and thinking about Chunxiang's reminder, she lowered her head directly and said:
"The folk girl understood, the folk girl accepted the punishment and was willing to pay the fine by deducting her wages every month......"
After hearing this, Zhu Jingyuan asked rhetorically:
"Are you not convinced?"
Ao Xue immediately said:
"There is no dissatisfaction, the folk girl knows her mistakes......"
Zhu Jingyuan took a deep breath:
"All you see are the numbers eighty-five and two hundred and fifty-five, do you know what I'm seeing?
"You know how much actual loss your illegal resale has caused to our industrial park.
"Do you know why, for those things you resell, someone will charge such a high price?
"Because a pair of pantyhose made of stretch silk in 20 percent starts at a hundred silver bills in places like Paris and London.
"If you resell one piece at the price of twenty silver bills, the clothing firm will lose more than a hundred silver bills."
Ao Xue is actually very sensitive to money, and at this time, her eyes suddenly widened:
"One Hundred ...... One hundred silver bills...... No wonder they are willing to buy a ...... for twenty silver bills."
Looking down at the socks on her legs, Aoxue's legs trembled and almost collapsed on the ground.
The hand hurriedly supported the back of the chair next to him, and he barely stood up with a slightly trembling body:
"The King...... This kind of clothes can really be sold for a hundred silver bills...... Why is it so expensive? ”
Zhu Jingyuan explained step by step:
"The reason is very simple, they are first and foremost unique secret recipe products, the only material formula in the world, in my hands, produced in our factory.
"At the same time, they were nominally invented by me, and the whole world recognized them and was willing to pay this price.
"In the end, it was particularly to the liking of the Tessie people, solving a problem that had plagued the Tessie nobility for hundreds of years.
"You've been living here for a month, so you should know that the wages and treatment of the workers in our big food country are very good, and it can be said that they far exceed all other places in the world, right?
"But have you ever wondered why you get this kind of treatment?
"Why do I have the money to pay you such a high salary and give you such a good welfare package?"
Ao Xue is a clever person herself, and when she heard Zhu Jingyuan's comparison before and after, she immediately understood:
"Because the actual cost is less than three silver bills, you can sell it for more than a hundred silver bills in Tessie......"
Zhu Jingyuan nodded with satisfaction:
"It's kind of a brain, but it's not a brain enough.
"The core reason why you, the workers, are able to obtain and maintain this standard of living is, of course, technological advances.
"But our technological superiority over the Tessie countries, our unique secret recipe products such as rayon and stretch yarn, can obtain excess profits in the Tessie side, and it is also one of the important factors that allows you to maintain a higher standard of living.
"As long as this profit can be maintained, the wages of you workers will continue to rise in the future.
"I even hope that one day, even if you are still an ordinary worker, you will be able to earn a hundred silver a month.
And then ...... You can still wear clothes that the Taisi people can buy for tens of silver bills, or even hundreds of silver bills, at the price of two or three yuan, or even one yuan a piece, do you want that kind of life? ”
Aoxue said almost without hesitation:
"Of course I want to, I dream of it, I don't care what life the Tessie people live, I just want to live well myself......"
Zhu Jingyuan immediately struck while the iron was hot and said:
"Then you workers, resell our clothes and secret ingredients to the Tessie people at a lower price.
"How can our factory continue to maintain super high profits? How can you workers make more money?
"When the Tessie people get hold of my secret recipe, let alone sell them a hundred silver bills for a piece of clothing, even if it is sold for one silver bill, they will pick and choose.
"Because the workers in Tessie are paid less, if we are both of the same level of skill, they will definitely make things cheaper than ours.
"When the time comes, we workers with high wages will not be able to sell what we make.
"Then you won't be able to maintain the status quo."
Aoxue almost knelt down again, this time with a tendency to cry bitterly, and at the same time said loudly from the bottom of her heart:
"I really understood it completely this time, and I will never resell welfare goods in the future......"
Haruka worked hard to write down these key conversations as completely as possible.
Turning around, it is broadcast in the factory and broadcast when it is teaching workers.
