Chapter 802: A New Lord Who Lacks People

Those who came back from the portal with Ding Kui were Shaodianluan, Long Yan, Ding Xiao, Yugui, Biya, Ding Kun, Ding Zhong, Qianyou, Guo Qing and Wang Bo, and the others had to rush to Juyang City through the state and county. Eight Chinese Net? ≤≠≈.≥8≥ If Fei Ze hadn't brought some people back first, he would have no one to use now.

All the affairs of the territory are waiting for people to deal with them, and it is not enough to rely on those people at hand at hand, Ding Kui summoned Ding Kun, Fei Ze, Xue Chong and Feng Liang to discuss.

"The royal outpost needs people, the city defense army needs people, the Huaxia Carriage and Horse Shop needs people, the Security Bureau needs people, the Yongsheng base needs people, the People's Livelihood Bureau, the Taxation Department and the Officials Department all need people, everyone wants to find a way, how to solve the manpower problem?" he laid out the problem.

"The 1st Brigade can cancel all vacations and take over the defense of the city defense force from now until next spring exercises. "Feng Liang foreworded.

He can't make up manpower, but he can share some of the problems faced by Giant Sheep City.

"In the past few days, nearly 2,000 people have been brushed down from the original city defense army, most of them are willing to join the caravan and chengguan, I have selected nearly 1,000 people to supplement the caravan, and the remaining 100 people are reorganized into a training team, and there are a few months of training to meet the requirements of chengguan.

During the time you have been in the capital, I have recruited and trained a group of men, about six hundred people, who have just completed their basic training and can be pulled to the royal outpost for the time being, and it will not be a problem to guard the Hump Mountain Pass, which only merchants and travelers pass.

Next, we have to recruit people in several nearby counties, but we will not be able to replenish them until after the New Year at the earliest. "Xue Chongguan has the most people and needs the most people.

"At present, the most urgent personnel are the Security Bureau, the royal outpost and the Huaxia Carriage and Horse Travel, and several other places can be suspended. Fei suggested prioritizing, "The security bureau's manpower can wait for people from the capital to replenish, and Wan Ban can draw some people from the Shiji Association when he returns."

It is not enough to have more than 600 people at the royal outpost, but it is easy to recruit names, and a team of 1,000 people can be put together before the spring exercise of the first brigade, plus the remaining more than 1,000 people in the original city defense army, and the establishment of 3,000 people can be declared upward. ”

"What about the city defense army?" Xue Chong couldn't help but interject.

Fei Ze glanced at Ding Kui before saying: "The city defense army will not be needed in the short term, and the troops at the royal outpost have the spare strength to take care of the city defense tasks, and it will not be too late for us to recruit slowly in the future."

The business of Huaxia Carriage and Horse Shop will grow exponentially next year, and there are not enough people for more than 1,000 people at present, and they need the support of new immigrants. ”

The new immigrants are talking about the old Ding family who migrated from all over the country, they are all military children, most of them have practiced martial arts since childhood, and have participated in various training camps, which is more suitable for protecting caravans.

"It's not enough, I want people, I want many, many people. Ding Kui was a little disappointed, "Deadwood Town and Yeliu Town have wasted a lot of farmland, I can guarantee that there will be no more demonic beasts in the swamp to attack humans, and those two towns need at least double the population." ”

Deadwood and Wildwillow are next to the Swamp, and the land there is arguably the most fertile in Southhill County, but there used to be a lot of monsters, and no one wanted to farm there, and the least number of people returned to these two towns after the war, and now half of the villages are empty.

"If you are in Pingzhong County, the young master can recruit people on "Watching the Moon", as long as the field tax is exempted for a few years and the output of the purchased fields is guaranteed, it will definitely attract a large number of displaced people. Ding Kun spoke up as everyone thought.

"Will the homeless people watch "Watching the Moon"?" Ding Kui was puzzled.

"The people who manage the displaced people will look at it, and they will tell the displaced people that everybody wants to see that there is not a single displaced person in their jurisdiction. ”

"Oh. Ding Kui understood, "I can print propaganda leaflets and post them all over Nannuma Prefecture." Exemption from field tax is not a problem, nor is it a problem to purchase, as long as it is easy to store grain, Yongsheng base has as much as it wants.

Eh, Deadwood Town and Yeliu Town are not far from the base, and even the freight is saved. As it was decided, the above two towns were exempted from land tax for five years, and Yongsheng Base purchased unlimited amounts of grain. I will publish a leaflet and spread it through all channels. ”

No one understands what a leaflet is, and no one knows what a psoriasis advertisement is, but Ding Kui knows it very well. In order to attract the population, he decided to do whatever it takes.

"Of course, you can attract many displaced people by doing this, but after several generations of reproduction, new displaced people will appear who have no land to cultivate, leaving hidden dangers for the future development of the territory. Fei disagrees with this radical approach.

Haha, you reminded me that as long as the efficiency of labor is improved, there will be surplus labor. Ding Kui became less and less concerned about new terms popping out of his mouth.

He looked at the confused eyes around him and explained, "I'll give you an example, the earliest fish cutters in the chilled specialty store could handle 100 fish per day, while the specialty store needed to handle 10,000 fish per day, so 100 fish cutters had to be recruited.

Now the fish cutters can handle 200 fish a day, assuming that the demand of the monopoly store remains the same, then only 50 fish cutters are needed, and 50 of the 100 people recruited will have nothing to do.

The fifty people who have nothing to do are called surplus labor, and all such surplus labor in the city are collectively referred to as the surplus labor population. If these people are not handled well, they will become displaced people, and we must organize them and guide them to where we need them. ”

"But we need armed men, do we need to train those surplus laborers?" Xue Chong was a little worried, not everyone could be trained into qualified soldiers.

"My subordinates understand what my lord means. Fei Ze showed admiration, "The simplest work in all walks of life should be strength work, only strength work does not require any skills, and those who have strength can be trained as armed or semi-armed personnel." ”

"That's right, for example, the officials and chengguan of the Public Security Bureau, as well as the security personnel of various important departments, they have the ability to deal with ordinary people, and the powerful roles are handed over to special departments. Ding Kui added.

"Do you mean to lower the requirements of the city management and turn all the city defense troops into caravans?" Xue Chong understood.

"Roughly this means, it is necessary to send people to organize porters and plasterers, and eliminate them while training, combined with continuous recruitment, should be able to meet the needs of the public security department and the chengguan. ”

Ding Kui now has gotten into the horns, urban planning is a long-term work, the city wall can be retained for a few years, the chengguan is not urgently needed, there is enough time for training.

"After the war, most of the people left behind are young and middle-aged, and there will be time to recuperate, and the population will grow naturally, and the problems that adults face today may be solved in ten or twenty years. Fei is persuading Ding Kui to adopt a steady approach.

"Hehe, don't worry, a large population is not a bad thing, I naturally have a useful place. Ding Kui thinks of the industrialized mode of production.

Although there are no machines in this world, there are many ways to improve work efficiency, and large-scale production can be organized with advanced production concepts.

The surplus labor force can enter the factory, and the Yongsheng base can be upgraded to an industrial town at any time, and it is not impossible to upgrade to a city in the future.

He began to build a blueprint in his mind, and he could boldly try it on his own turf. It wasn't a matter of trust that he didn't say it now, he was afraid of trouble, and no one present could understand his vision.

"People in the field of internal affairs can be recruited in Nanjing City, and my subordinates suggest recruiting more young people, because older people are easy to form stubborn ideas and are not suitable for accepting new things created by adults. Fei understands the characteristics of literati better.

"Agreed, notify the liaison person in Nanjing City, find a way to intercept Mr. Liu, and let Mr. Liu recruit talents in internal affairs when he passes through Nanjing City, the younger the better, and the more the number, the better. Ding Kui also didn't want to work with stubborn literati.

The manpower problem came to an end, and Ding Kui brought in the followers of the guards Lao Guo and Qianyou.

"Lao Guo, Wang Bo, do you know why you are here?"

Guo Qing and Wang Bo replied together: "My subordinates don't know. ”

One was a guard of the Protector of the Kingdom, and the other was a follower of Qianyou, and they really didn't know why they came to such a meeting.

"The mayors of the ten towns under the jurisdiction of Juyang City were appointed by the former city lord, and now that they have become my territory, the original mayor is not suitable to continue, I want the two of you to serve as the mayor, Lao Guo will go to Yeliu Town, and Wang Bo will go to Mingyue Town. ”

Ding Kui wants to strengthen his control over the territory, and plans to arrange his henchmen to serve as ten mayors.

The guard Lao Guo has been with Ding Kui for a long time, and his qualifications are enough to be a town mayor.

Wang Bo has followed Qianyou since the Funiu Mountain Demon Rat Incident, and as a result, he spent most of his time working in the Ding family, but in fact he spent very little time with Qianyou, and Ding Kui took a fancy to his ability and loyalty.

Knowing that he became the mayor of the town, the two of them couldn't believe their ears, and they had to push back after reacting.

"I'll leave it to you to govern, I'll rest assured! You don't have to excuse yourself, unless you think you don't have the ability to manage a town! Those two towns are on the riverside, and it is easy for foreign enemies to sneak in, and you have to take on the heavy responsibility of protecting the territory. Ding Kui knew that these two were responsible people.

Guo Qing and Wang Bo knelt down on one knee at the same time, clasped their fists together and said, "The subordinates will live up to the expectations of adults!"

The road from Juyang City to Yongsheng Base passes through Mingyue Town and Yeliu Town, and Ding Kui wants to ensure that this road is smooth and will not let someone he trusts become the mayor.

Ding Kui said to Fei, who had not yet left: "Mr. Fei, the tax office will trouble you." ”

"It's not troublesome, it's much easier than Liuyu's People's Livelihood Bureau, and there are many taxes that don't need to be collected by subordinates in the first few years. Fei Ze had already guessed some of Ding Kui's personnel appointments.

"In addition to taxation, you also have to take care of several industries directly under the city lord's mansion, how many people to use, which people to use? You can decide for yourself. ”

"What about Ding's ship repair shop?"

"It's also up to you, Ding Cai will be in charge of the security department. Ding Kui knows what position his dog leg is suitable for.
