Chapter 532 The calculation between officials and civilians!
"Young and old men, most of you are my fellow villagers, and some of you came to Daning from other places to make a fortune but ended up in our mine. No matter how you came to the mine, since we are together, where are you?"
Fate. Our mine is not like some bullshit gold and silver mines. We can’t make a fortune in the mine. But having said that, what we earn is stable money. We can make a profit by mining for one day.
If you keep working for a long time, you will make a lot of money." Ye Liqing called the mine workers to one place and held a mobilization meeting, showing a leadership style.
He picked up the teapot from the table in front of him and after taking a sip of tea, Ye Liqing continued: "This place in Daning looks like a wilderness, but when it comes to settling down, it's really a good place. It's not far from our mine.
The river valley in the river is a good place for farming. Do you see where there is water and convenience? It’s much better than our hometown! So I plan to put everyone’s living area there. Let’s also imitate the look of a government-run factory.
, build a house and settle down. And it’s better than what they did, and we also want to open fields and grow food.”
"The government's policy is that as long as our mine workers can cultivate more than 20,000 acres of land and cultivate it steadily for five years, our mining rights can be extended for twenty years. As a mine owner, I will naturally benefit from this, but
Our brothers will not let you suffer. The mine will pay for the cultivation of fields and canals, and then use the government's seeds and farm tools to allocate the fields to the big guys. The big guys will not get an acre of land from the mine. The big guys will use the seeds and farm tools from the government.
Xiao Ming came here to farm, and then work in the mines to earn money. Can he still live a good life? He will be able to save the money he earns."
After all, he is the boss. After what he said, it feels like he is just doing good things. But is there any businessman who is not self-interested but only benefits others? His plan is to let these miners take care of themselves and their families.
On his mine. As long as they set up their home here, they can continue to dig stones in the mine to help themselves make money.
The miners couldn't figure out what Ye Liqing's idea was. They only thought that this was a good thing. As long as the mines paid for them to open up land, there would be no risk in opening up land, even if it was the yield of grain grown in previous years.
Generally speaking, it won't affect anything. This land belongs to my family! Unlike farming in my hometown, farming here also has a stable and well-paying job. I can not only farm the land but also make money at home.
Where can I find such good things?
After Ye Liqing's mobilization, the miners were very motivated. On the next day, under the organization of the mine, they used their spare time to open up the land after the completion of the project. Their idea was to open up the land first this year, and then rush to
Before the spring of next year, they will take over their families and they will be able to plant a crop of food in the spring. If they have enough time, the absentees also want to build some houses in the living area so that their families can have a place to live when they come.
.
"Master, what do you think if we install the living area at the east end of the river valley? It will be close to the mine and it will be convenient for the workers to go to work." Bang Xian brought Ye Liqing to choose the site for the official living area and asked him to confirm it as soon as possible.
place to avoid conflict with the place where the fields are opened.
"This place is too small and can only accommodate a thousand or so people. Choose a larger place that can accommodate more than 10,000 people! Moreover, this place is too close to the river, so it will be easily affected by floods.
Spread. Look at the small highland in the southeast, it’s good, choose that place.”
"It's a spacious place, but it's a little far away from the mine! We'll have to build a road to get there, and it's not convenient to get water."
"Let's build a special road there. For water collection, our mine will pay for a fire water dragon. That thing is very good. After buying it, it can not only provide water to the people in the living area, but also pump water to irrigate the ground.
We can open more fields."
"Fire and water dragon? How can I buy a small one with more than a thousand taels of silver dollars? The investment is too much! We have made some money in the mine, but we can't afford to spend it like this."
"When you make money, you have to spend it in useful places. I think the fire water dragon is of great use. This money must be spent. With the fire water dragon, at least ten thousand acres more irrigated land can be opened, and how many people can be attracted to our mine
?Looking at this situation, we will have three to four thousand people working in our mine within a few years. Our living area can at least accommodate more than ten thousand people. What is this scene? This is built with us
What a small town!”
Men sometimes fall into a strange situation and begin to become confused unconsciously. Recently, Ye Liqing suffered from this symptom. The large-scale land reclamation and preparation of living areas gave him a sense of accomplishment, and his whole life
They all became excited. Compared with this sense of accomplishment, it seems that making money from mining is not that important. This is probably the happiness that only officials can have, right? I didn't expect that a poor person who lives outside the customs can also experience this feeling.
"Master Fu, in recent times, in addition to the palace's industries responding to the government's call more actively, some private businessmen have also begun to develop agriculture. The Qingshan Mine that your Excellency inspected a few days ago was the most active. The document they reported said,
This year and next, we plan to open more than 20,000 acres of farmland for mining operations."
"Twenty thousand acres? Where did they open so many fields? Is it a big lie to deceive the government?"
"It doesn't seem to be the case. That Ye Liqing must be serious. He has already asked someone to order a fire water dragon from the supply and marketing cooperative, saying that it is used to absorb water for people's living quarters and fields. A small fire water dragon costs more than a thousand taels of silver dollars.
Well, if he wanted to deceive the government, he wouldn't have spent such a huge amount of money."
"Is that so? It seems that this person is still a person who needs to work hard. During this period, you should pay more attention to their mine. If they use a lot of force in this matter, the government should also take care of it.
You can consider guaranteeing them a loan from the Royal Bank so that they can do things better. In addition, they will open more than 20,000 acres of land, which means there will be a lot of people near the mine in the future. You can consider giving them a loan from Fucheng.
The local government built an official road. Near the area where they opened their fields, they planned several government-run wasteland resettlement sites accordingly to guide the people where to gather."
"Master Fujun arranged it like this, is it possible?"
"In order to provide convenience to the people, we must also protect them. We cannot leave it entirely to the whims of private and businessmen. It is a bit too dangerous for a gathering of thousands or even tens of thousands of people to be organized by a private businessman. The government must intervene as soon as possible to make plans
Make it to the front."
"The prince's far-sightedness is beyond the reach of others in humble positions."
As a qualified local official who has been practicing for several years, he still has this awareness and awareness. If Ye Liqing is really allowed to build a village with a population of nearly 10,000 people, how will the government penetrate the administrative system? This village is the Ye family.
The town was established. So Liu Xing’s idea was that since there were leaders, a town could be developed around them in a serious way! Who knows, in ten years or so, any place could become a county town.
