Chapter 187: Troubled Times: Deduction of Labor Fees
"King! There's a new city ahead! I'll wait to see if we can drive the car in. Yuwen Hu turned back to the frame window and couldn't help asking.
"Just leave the car here and leave five people to guard it." Dongfang Yu's voice came from inside the car.
It was originally a private visit to Weifu, and it was going on to go in in a carriage. After all! Those who can get into the carriage must have some family backgrounds in the family.
In this era, horse-drawn carriage driving is a luxury.
Dongfang Yu and Xu Meng got out of the car, randomly! It was to greet Gu Yuena and Zhao Yazhi.
"Let's go!" Dongfang Yu lightly put down two words.
Not far away! Anding New City, has begun to appear model, the grand city wall, as far as the eye can see! The thickness of the walls is also made of special materials. It can be said that if Anding City can be built, it will definitely leap to the second largest city in Beiliang. Moreover! Its hardness should also be ranked second.
Before Anding City, it was naturally Qin County. The city walls of Qin County, defended everywhere, were renovated, and later the city was expanded, and many high turrets and arrow towers were built!
At this time, in the new city, hundreds of thousands of people contributed to the work, pulling wood for those who pulled wood, and selling coolies for coolies...... It's a busy scene. Moreover, on the faces of these people, you can see an extremely happy smile, and the eyes in those eyes all depict the expectations for the future life.
This is inseparable from the management of Tian Ping, Wang Su, and Pei Hao. He, the boss behind the scenes, also has something to do with it.
Of course! Does this mean that there is no hegemony in these refugee groups? Around this new city, there is Arita Ping, a harmonious, peaceful very, and! Soldiers were also often involved in the people, and together with the people, they built the city.
But under Anding County, what about the three county towns that were temporarily built! For example, Xing County, this place, from Anding County, is the closest, twenty miles away, half an hour to arrive.
Naturally, it was a private visit to Weifu to inspect the results of the construction of the new city, and those places, where he was the king of Qin, naturally had to go.
In Anding New County, Dongfang Yu and others wandered around and asked a few questions from the people, all of whom praised King Qin and Tian Ping.
This person, Dongfang Yu, was very satisfied.
About forty minutes later, Dongfang Yu left the new city and returned to the carriage. Along the way, it's hard to hide a smile.
Xu Meng naturally saw Dongfang Yu's happiness, and said, "The king can rest assured this time?" Prime Minister Tian's governance ability, the Qin State, is obvious to all. This is naturally efficient. ”
Even Xu Meng is also envious of Tian Ping's ability? Of course! Although his governance ability is not as good as Tian Ping, it is not much worse, it's just! He doesn't want to bother with these trivial matters! It's more about mental arithmetic.
"Hmm!"
Dongfang Yu nodded slightly noncommittally.
"Strategist, I finally have time not to make a private visit! I'll go to a few county seats! ”
"No!"
The ancient king, like Dongfang Yu, is a king who can do things himself, but there are very few.
Xingxian!
"A bunch of damn Diao people, eat my Beiliang, use my Beiliang, now! There are also people who live in my Beiliang, you bastards, you are all treated like this, and you don't work hard for Lao Tzu. "This big man is the overseer of this supervising Zao'an County.
He also has a very resounding name, Pei Zhuang, the cousin of the Pei family, and Pei Yuanqing's cousin. Pei Hao and Pei Zhuang's family both believe in Pei, but the relationship is not deep. Back then! When Pei Hao was still a useless bookmaker (poor and sour talent), these people of the Pei family were very arrogant, relying on the status of Mr. Pei's family, and they didn't want to see Pei Hao.
And later! Pei Hao was in business, and he killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions, and he was alone in Wuwei, laying a foundation for the Pei family, and became the biggest overlord of Beiliang! With such an identity, it's different, the people of the general family, seeing the situation and profit, and the dead face, stammered Pei Hao.
Pei Hao is also a hard stubble, with clear hatred and love, and he directly drove these Pei family members out of the door, and he didn't wait to see them. Later, he joined Dongfang Yu's command, thinking that Pei Hao would be in trouble this time, and the Pei family would also be in trouble.
Just when he was about to break off the relationship with Pei Hao...... Pei Hao actually became Dongfang Yu's confidant, that is, his son Pei Yuanqing, who was also reused by Dongfang Yu, and! I still want to be a powerful general under the command of King Qin......
To tell the truth, this time, it was not Pei Hao who showed mercy and took pity on some people in the Pei family! But when Pei Hao skimmed off the overlord of Beiliang, his heart became soft. This is not! This big man named Pei Zhuang is from his cousin's side, and his dead skin is stuffed with his face.
No way! It just so happened that the new city was built, and there were not enough people to manage it, so I let Pei Zhuang manage it.
And Pei Hao almost always walks around the new city and rarely comes to the county. After all! The main place now is the construction of a new city.
"And! Isn't it just relying on his cousin, a minister under King Qin? What's so crazy about climbing on the clinging momentum, I've seen a lot of such things? ”
"That is, deducting labor fees, and ...... reasonable"
These hard-working people had no choice but to complain a few words, but they didn't dare to say more.
After all! They are out-of-towners, and they are no better than natives after all. Speaking of which, the labor cost of Beiliang is much higher than that of other states! Even if half of it is deducted, they can accept it.
And! In their opinion, as a refugee who fled here, the Beiliang official mansion can build a city and build houses for their residence, and work hard for the old lungs, this kind of treatment, I am afraid that only Beiliang has it at night. Moreover! To be a subject of King Qin, under the protection of King Qin, it is simply an honor.
"Boy! I don't think you want to live anymore! "Exactly! Pei Zhuang's ears could hear clearly.
Those straight eyes looked at those people viciously.
Immediately! With such a beckon, a few subordinates ran over and pulled out those people.
The four young men were pushed to the ground by a few subordinates.
It can be seen that these subordinates are not Beiliang's soldiers.
"You four, what did you just say! Isn't it convincing to Lao Tzu's words! ”
Pei Zhuang's two eyes widened, and the relationship between Pei Hao's nephew was enough for him to cover the sky with one hand in Xingcheng.
The four of them couldn't stand the oppression, their dignity was trampled on, sometimes they had to be beaten, and half of the labor fee was deducted, how could they bear it, a thin young man, he scolded, "What's wrong!" Are we wrong? Qin Fa is like this! And you, contrary to the Qin Law, deducted the people's wages, isn't it a crime? ”
"If I wait for the day when I will not be oppressed, I will report to the government the matter of your deduction of workers' wages...... Hum! But you have something to feel comfortable with. ”
"Hahaha~"
Pei Zhuang didn't laugh angrily, feeling that a few people were ignorant, "Ridiculous!" Report to the government? Don't you know, my uncle is an important minister under the command of King Qin, you dare to sue me...... In the world, there are still such people who don't know whether to live or die? ”
