Baixiang Town, the Chu family compound

Ever since Chu Qianqiu accepted the homeless people from Fengzhou, Huang Xiaoxiao, the eldest lady of the Chu family, has been a little busy.

"The industry over there in Xingcheng can eat 2,000 helpers, and the Taocheng side can eat 1,500 people."

"The road repair and the excavation of the canal in Baixiang Town can also eat about 3,000 people."

"Shishi's side can recruit about 5,000 helpers, and counting the industries in other small towns, there are still a lot of people left."

Chu Qianqiu threw the matter to Li Mingde and others, and finally transported it to Lingzhou, which naturally caused a lot of new problems, and it was not that Chu Qianqiu waved his pen and everything was fine.

"Qingfen, do you need new manpower for your righteous qi gang?"

"How much can you recruit, and how much can you pay?"

"Master Mother, I pick people, and I want to be young and smart."

"If you are older than thirty years old, you will be disgusted by the yamen to accept helpers."

"I can't even ask for this righteous gang."

Qing Fen hurriedly shook his head, his righteous qi helped to gather idlers and young rangers from all over the country, and his power expanded rapidly. (Note: Chapter 328)

Although there are not many masters, there are thousands of them alone.

Go deep into the towns and villages to inquire about all kinds of news, destroy other dynamic organizations, and replace them, and do some protection money and maintenance of the market by the way.

The Righteous Qi Gang is already a gang that can be named in Linghu City.

Especially Chu Qianqiu's status is increasing day by day, wherever he goes, others have to be called "Qing Ye." ”

But in front of Huang Xiaoxiao, this young man with the honorific title of the rivers and lakes immediately drooped his head and complained bitterly:

"Mistress, you don't know."

"Those croppers are old, and their health is still in deficit, and they just came over a few days ago, and several of them died."

"Forget it, after all, it's a foreigner, and if you die, you die, and the township doesn't say any gossip, and it's over as soon as the body is burned."

"Getting to the point." Huang Xiaoxiao didn't want to waste time, so she asked directly.

"Yes, Mistress."

"The main thing is the price of long-term labor last year, and there are two taels of silver a year, and this year there are only one or two and five hundred dollars left."

"Righteous anger helps collect people, just take care of food, don't have a lot of people for wages."

Qingfen sighed a little.

In the past, when Boss Wang was the boss of the gang, the younger brother of the gang was 100 yuan a month, but he didn't care about food.

Now is the time for Qingfen to call the shots, and he has adjusted to think that eating is more attractive, and he will manage the food but not give money.

"So some people in the township gossip, saying that Lord Chu is from Lingzhou, how can he hire so many people from Fengzhou?"

"Whether it's Xingcheng or Taocheng, there are as many people who line up every day to do short-term work."

"Now there are people who pick up dung."

"The master mother has opened so many new workshops, inns, and shops, but she has recruited strangers."

"They all hope that the people in Fengzhou will go back quickly, and they have a lot of complaints in their hearts."

Qingfen hurriedly said.

Such a fact made Huang Xiaoxiao's brows furrow, and he fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Qing Fen panicked in his heart, and immediately defended:

"Of course, the people of Qingshi Town have never said so, they are all Diao people from Yanbo Town and Ganlu Town."

"These people are simply lawless."

"Who does the main mother's family want to recruit, is it their turn to complain?"

"You don't even deserve to be a long-term worker."

Qingfen was born in Qingshi Town, and many cadres of the Yiqi Gang were selected by him from Qingshi Town to build his own team, so he became the representative of the interests of Qingshi Town.

"Qingfen, you are in charge of intelligence, not sycophants."

"No matter how bad and ugly the words of the township are, as long as they are true, you have credit."

"But if you make up all kinds of information for the sake of sounding good, then you are guilty of no punishment."

Huang Xiaoxiao said slowly.

This green skin is getting more and more cunning, and it has to be beaten twice.

"The villain understands."

"The villain will never dare to hide it, and he will never dare to make up any lie."

Qing Fen shouted decisively, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

"Alright, if you have any ideas, just say it." Huang Xiaoxiao saw that Qing Fen had said so much, he must have an idea in his heart, so he naturally asked.

"The master mother, it's not the villain's idea, it's the black charcoal under him who put it forward." Qing Fen immediately perked up.

"This Yanbo Town, there are not many small hills near Qingshi Town, the mountains are not high, and the land is also very barren, which can be used to open up wasteland."

"That land is very barren, and one acre of land can yield about 100 catties per mu, and it can't be opened up."

Clearing wasteland is a hard work, especially in some barren mountains, where the roots of the trees are rooted in the ground and are very deep, and these compacted clods of soil can be cleaned up and leveled, which can kill people, and it is extremely heavy physical work.

"But these homeless people are all outsiders, let them open up the land, and they will be almost the same."

"It's time to divide the land again."

Qing Fen made a plan very simply.

"Qingfen, your heart has turned black."

"You've forgotten that you're also a farmer."

Huang Xiaoxiao could naturally understand the speech of the leader of the Righteous Qi Gang, and said with a smile.

"The villain doesn't dare." Qingfen sweated profusely, sweating like rain.

"Okay, you're just giving advice."

"It seems to be your people, take a fancy to those wastelands, and want to make some industry."

"For the sake of these thin fields, take the reputation of the Chu family, you can think of it." Huang Xiaoxiao naturally doesn't look down on the wasteland of these hills, the Chu family is now also a famous big landlord in Lingzhou, and the main fields are riverside land, all of which are high-grade fertile land, how can he care about those low-grade fields that have not yet been cultivated.

"Damn the villain." Qing Fen hurriedly shouted, about to kowtow.

"Get up."

"But you have a great idea."

"There are still some high-cost wastelands in Lingzhou that can be opened."

"It's just that the reputation of the Chu family is more important than making money, you know."

"The villain understands."

"Let's go down then."

Huang Xiaoxiao scolded and began to consider Fang Cai's plan, the valuable land in Lingzhou had already been almost cleared.

It is impossible to install these people to farm in Lingzhou.

Just like when the Wang family sold the land, there were tenants on these lands, and if they were moved, it would be equivalent to cutting off their livelihoods, and according to the contract, the tenants also had certain rights.

Property rights belong to property rights, and tenant rights belong to tenant rights, this system is called the permanent tenant system, and it is impossible for the Chu family to drive away the farmers on the fields at will, and this is ignored by the government.

Although the Chu family can treat the law as mud, it will also have a bad reputation if it is passed on, and the Wang family will not do it, which will cause unease among the farmers.

Therefore, although most of the displaced people from Fengzhou are farmers, Huang Xiaoxiao has not considered letting them go to farming.

Because the land in Lingzhou is also saturated, farmers like Qingfen could only go to the towns to work as gangsters a few months ago.

You want to be a tenant for the landlord's family, but people still don't look down on you.

"Husband is really a big problem."

Huang Xiaoxiao calculated the manpower arrangement, his brows furrowed slightly, but he heard a chuckle from behind:

"Yes, yes, I'm making trouble for my husband and mother."

"Otherwise, I'll rub it for the lady."

The familiar voice came into his ears, so that Huang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but look back.

The people she misses day and night are looking at her with a smile on their faces, just as they did at the beginning.

"Husband, aren't you rectifying officialdom in Linghu City?"

"We were chatting yesterday."

Huang Xiaoxiao mistakenly thought that he was dreaming.

"The affairs of officialdom were handed over to the head of the Yang Academy, and Xu Zishuang and the others to do."

"I'm mainly responsible for the assessment."

"Then why are you here?" Huang Xiaoxiao felt that she had a lot of grievances to say, like she didn't come back to see me first, as if she was pinching flowers and grass, but for some reason, when she saw Chu Qianqiu, she felt that her body was a little softer.

"Because I miss you."

"So I came back early."

Chu Qianqiu was not polite, and directly turned the lady into a princess hug and turned into a beast.

"Husband, wait a minute, the matter is not over yet."

The two haven't seen each other for a long time, and they are like newlywed Yan'er.

"No, there's more important things to do."

"What's the matter?"

"Give birth."

If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it when I'm done.

This time, at least seven days and seven nights, without discounts.
