For the people of Qi,

First of all

Han Lin canceled his conscription.

All the people recruited for the project will be paid a corresponding salary every month.

And this money is even more than what ordinary people earn by plowing the fields. 𝓜.𝓥𝕆𝓓𝓣𝙬.𝘾𝙊𝓜

secondly

The imperial court will also be responsible for the food and lodging of these people.

Three meals a day are served, and although the food is not enough, it is full of porridge and mustard.

Even every once in a while, they will be given a meal of meat.

As for the living environment, they are all dormitories made up of makeshift houses.

These dormitories are all six-person rooms.

The beds are made of wood and have bunk beds.

Each dormitory also has a simple toilet.

In addition, these dormitories will have pipes to the ice cellar and have braziers.

Other words

In the hot summer months, when they are in the dormitory, they can enjoy the chill in the ice cellar through the pipes.

It's kind of a simple air conditioner.

In the cold winter, each dormitory can receive a certain amount of coal, which can be put in a brazier to keep warm.

Of course

These accommodations,

All are from dormitories where permanent work is in one location.

For example, the construction of the Forbidden City and the Yuanmingyuan,

Because these people have to work here for a long time, they will be equipped with such dormitories.

If it's on the Great Wall, or in places like road construction, there is no such good treatment.

The houses where the people lived were simple wooden houses.

Although it will also be equipped with braziers in winter.

But in the summer, there are no shade houses.

However, there should be a lot of food.

In the summer, they will serve cold mung bean soup and sour plum soup, and in the winter, they will also provide hot soup to warm up.

in a word

The treatment of these migrant workers has increased by an unknown number of times compared with the previous forced labor.

Even many Qi people often want to break their heads and squeeze in.

However......

In recent years,

With the opening of ocean trade, there are fewer and fewer opportunities for Qi people to participate.

It's not that the court doesn't want to recruit them.

It's that slaves are more cost-effective.

......

The vast majority of these slaves came from only three situations.

The first type is the person who takes the initiative to come from Nanyang, Xiaguryeo, and Xiaori.

These people do not have a household registration, and their only means of earning a living is to participate in these projects.

The second, those who are forced to come.

That is, through the ocean trade, the slaves that were purchased by those caravans, or directly robbed.

The number of people here is also the largest.

In recent years, the inflow has skyrocketed.

Countless chambers of commerce have identified business opportunities.

And all of this was acquiesced in by Han Lin.

Although in Han Lin's eyes, they are all people, but their identities are definitely one grade lower than the people of Qi State.

In other words, slaves.

The third type is the prisoners of war.

These people are now holding up half of the sky of Qi State's various projects.

......

On the scale of the project,

These slaves took on the most tiring of the work.

However, in terms of treatment....... It can only be said that the only treatment is that after fifteen years of work, you can obtain the household registration of Qi State.

But that doesn't include the captives.

The captives were held for only three years.

After it is done, it will be the people of Qi country.

Unlike the people of Qi who work here, these slaves basically don't have to think about wages.

Not a single point.

This saved a lot of money for Qi State.

Secondly, in terms of food, they are only worthy of eating the leftovers of Qi Guofu's leftovers.

If you're unlucky,

Don't have a lot of leftovers today?

Excuse me, you're going to starve.

Their accommodation conditions are also extremely poor.

The people of Qi can live in the dormitory, enjoy the warmth in the brazier, or enjoy the cold air in the cool room.

They could only sleep in tents.

These tents are actually tents.

Each tent was crammed with a dozen people.

And

These tents are covered with patches, and some of them are leaking from the wind and rain.

But in the face of all this,

The foreman of the Qi State would not bother at all.

Or rather,

I didn't treat them as human beings at all.

Every day in the tiring work,

The people of Qi can talk and laugh, do the easiest work, and even drink to those slaves.

As for the slaves, not only did they have to do the dirtiest and most tiring work.

From time to time, I have to be bullied.

As a management foreman, in the face of such a situation, not only will he not take care of it, but sometimes he will even intensify the persecution.

Such an extreme approach,

In recent years,

It has indeed saved a lot of expenses for Qi State.

And

Han Lin said that he was very kind.

I pity these people very much, so I am extra gracious and give them a way out.

This way out is also very simple,

Fifteen years of work.

If you are still alive, then you can obtain the household registration of the Qi State.

Henceforth become one
