The continuous rush made everyone very tired, leaving only the palace maids who rode in cars and horses, who were responsible for organizing the manpower, and then singing and dancing.

The temperature in Huaiyuan is relatively stable, neither cold nor hot, you can't find anything dripping into ice in winter, and your head won't be hot and smoky in summer.

A few days after the beginning of summer, the weather was just right, and the children among the people were sleepy in the tents, and those who wanted to continue drinking chatted around the bonfire, and watched the palace maids dance by the way.

The people are just looking for excitement, and it is usually impossible for everyone to get together to eat and drink like this, especially in various villages, if there is a big event in the same village, it is just a lively village.

The villages inquired about each other, who raised how many chickens, ducks and geese, and did they still use bran to raise pigs and bamboo rats? How many heads did the big animals buy?

And what are you going to use for silage this year, and what are you buying cement for in your village? Your village sells cement-burning stones for a lot of money, right?

The villages also wanted to compare and inquire about other people's skills and ideas, including how many people were dispatched to build roads and river embankments this year.

Zhu Wentian looked at the information provided by the sergeant who taught the people here in the tent, written on paper, and it was in the form of a notebook.

Obviously, when the sergeant knew that he could teach others, he worked hard to improve his handwriting skills and prepare to become an official in the future.

In fact, it is true, when they are old and cannot fight, they will go down to each county to become officials, and there is not only one official in a county.

Now few officials are fighting wars, and in some counties, not to mention county lieutenants and county officials, there are no scribes, only the county magistrate is busy with the main book, and then finds illiterate people to serve as officials.

Once the sergeant retires and scatters all over the Ming Dynasty, the overall quality of the Ming Dynasty will improve instantly, and now it is to teach the people to read and write!

"The local officials are good, smart, and know how to burn cement to build roads, otherwise the local rain is afraid that the river will be muddy after the road overflows, which will delay transportation.

There is no coal here in Huaiyuan, there are many stones to burn cement, and there are quartz stones to burn glass.

However, the location of Bagong Mountain, yes, in the place to the east of it, there is a lot of coal, and it is just after mining and loading the ship to Huaiyuan. ”

Zhu Wentian looked at the information and spoke, now there is no name for Huainan City, and there is no Huaibei City.

There is coal in Huaibei, but it cannot be transported to Huaiyuan, Huainan is right next to the main stream of the Huai River, you must pass through Huaiyuan, is there a more convenient transportation condition than this?

So the villages built cement roads, and by the way, the open ditches and culverts were also built into cement to facilitate cleaning.

Then make the thatched pit of his own thatched house into cement, it is easy to dig manure, and by the way, build a fermentation tank in the field to prevent children from going over.

After the road was repaired, they planned to build a house, using local granite as the foundation, and by the way, they could pave the broken stones on other paths.

The climate is good, and there is no shortage of water, suitable for planting, breeding, and selling things, the road and mine are not good, and now we are working hard to repair.

The lieutenant gathered together and looked at it and praised: "The local people have a lot of ideas, they don't need a one-month labor period every year, they usually go to work when they have time, and bring their own dry food." ”

It is written in the information that when the chiefs of each village saw that there was no farming work, they immediately went to the county officials and asked the officials to send craftsmen to direct, and the people from the village to do it.

The people of the yamen wrote down who came and worked for a few days, and some people even wrote down for half a day, so that they had half a day to spare, and they had to feed the pigs when they went back!

The people did this, and the county officials were also responsible, writing a question book and sending it to Nanjing, so that there would be a list for the convenience of the people, and if there was anything in the county, they could come and collect it, and the price was not high.

As a result, the people of Huaiyuan County sold more things and made more money, so they went back and continued to raise.

The cement was fired with a hydraulic mill, and the cement was loaded and sent downstream, and there were no limestone and coal in some places downstream, so I just bought Huaiyuan.

When there was no department store, the chief of each village would bring people to purchase the goods at a lower price than those who went to the county seat alone.

"This is the result of the interaction between the village officials and the county officials, and the entire Ming Dynasty should be like this, instead of taking personal benefits in various ways.

Looking back and researching, local officials can lead the local people to earn a certain percentage of how much money they can make, and give them bonuses according to a certain percentage.

For example, one thousandth, which can be reflected in taxes, and an additional ten yuan will be paid for a tax of 10,000 yuan.

The people live well, and only when there is more money can consumption increase, and thus taxes increase, but if you don't look at the GDP, that is ineffective. ”

Zhu Wentian considered whether to link local economic development with the additional income of officials, and without raising additional taxes, the more taxes they collected, the more they would give.

The people did not pay taxes when they sold pigs, poultry, eggs, grain, and vegetables.

But they will buy what they need after they have made money, and then they have to pay taxes whether it is a restaurant, a pig killing shop, or a store.

Li Chang frowned, not understanding: "It's not good to grow in the second year, isn't there less money?" ”

"Don't look at the growth, the official is an official in this place, as long as it is a tax, he will be given one thousandth, even if he is transferred, the tax here is still given, but it can be changed to one ten-thousandth.

The tax increased by the new officials on his basis is counted as the new officials, and the appointed chief officials, the county magistrate, the chief bookkeeper, and the county magistrate, whoever contributes more will take more.

For example, some county officials said that I would not leave, and I waited for the new officials to continue to lead the people to increase their income and raise taxes, and I could get money again.

This also works, which means that he at least cooperates with the newly arrived magistrate to do things, otherwise if it goes down, he will be lowered first.

Officials who leave are more willing to go to poor places, play better, improve more, and save a lot of money when they don't do it. ”

Zhu Wentian said that such measures will be more difficult the further they go, and the higher the requirements for the ability of officials.

As for saying that someone is cheating, it is the work of the Ministry of Officials and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Ministry of Household is also staring at it! If you cheat, you have to bring me the tax, you can make it!

"Then I'll go back and write the question book, send it to Your Majesty by telegram, and see what Your Majesty means, the people in our village should be magistrates and have money to make."

The lieutenant was about to go back, and he felt that according to this line of thinking, the people in the village could lead the people to get rich, and then there would be endless money.

"It's early! You have to wait for His Royal Highness the Prince, and the other older people in the village will take care of other things! ”

Zhu Wentian shook his head, people in their forties and fifties in the village can't wait for Zhu Biao to ascend the throne before becoming officials, not to mention lifespan, but because they are too old to do anything.

Forty years old, wait ten years, Zhu Yuanzhang is reluctant to do it, tired, he himself is only in his fifties, fifty years old in the village, running to become a local official?

Now in his thirties, plus his own batch and future children, it is the most suitable to cooperate with Zhu Biao, and then think about it, what should he do, he can't control the court!

The lieutenant lifted the curtain of the tent, looked left and right, threw down a 'got it', and went back to his tent.

Outside the tent were the people of the village who were sitting here eating and chatting about their daughters-in-law, and they were in charge of watching.
