At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.
He didn't reject it, mainly for the sake of the people.
As the emperor, he did not want to see the Fuzhou government in three years because of a shortage of supplies.
He thought about it and observed for a while before saying it.
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Xu Biao and the Jinyiwei to continue to Fuzhou Prefecture.
This was because they had already greeted each other before.
The Brocade Guard directly brought the procedures that the two princes had completed over.
After that.
The ownership of the land was also in the hands of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
First of all.
What they did was to build a relatively hidden secret chamber on this land as a base to store information.
Xu Biao then distributed all the Embroidered Uniform Guards he brought over to the entire Fuzhou Prefecture.
Monitor every move of the Fuzhou government.
It also included what Meng Yin did every day.
This was what Zhu Yuanzhang had said before. He wanted to get all the information about Fuzhou Prefecture and Meng Yin.
....
On this day.
Xu Biao, who was gathering information on the street, brought two Embroidered Uniform Guards with him. Suddenly, he heard a burst of noise from the crowd.
He quickly went over to listen.
She sat at another table and asked the waiter to serve a few cups of tea while listening to the conversation next door.
"Have you all heard? The government had already registered the name list and started hiring.”
When the commoners heard this, they quickly asked,""Really? When will the recruitment begin?”
"Why don't I see anyone?”
"Yes, yes, you're not talking nonsense, are you?”
That person glared angrily.
"What nonsense! This is the news I got from the official. I have relatives working in the government!”
"What else did you find out?”
"I also heard that the government is offering a high salary for this recruitment. Guess how much it is?"”
The man took a sip of tea as he spoke, keeping his appetite for a fight in check.
Everyone started discussing.
"How many can there be? In Fuzhou Prefecture, if one could earn one tael of silver a month, it would be better than working in the fields!”
"One tael of silver? How is that possible? Dream on!"
"Can the government take out such a high amount of silver to give to us commoners?”
"That might not be the case. Previously, the magistrate said that he wanted us commoners to earn a fortune!”
"That makes sense."
After the crowd discussed for a while, someone hurriedly asked the person from earlier.
"Tell me, don't you have relatives in the government? Have you found out how much the government intends to pay us commoners?”
"That's right! Stop keeping me in suspense!"
The group of people was noisy.
The man said with a smug smile,""You must not have expected this. The salary given by the government this time is higher than you imagined, hehe."
" How high is that?!"
Some of the people around them were already about to lose their temper.
"According to the government, an ordinary worker can earn about two taels of silver a month."”
"But I have to go out of the city to work, and I heard that the work is very tiring. I have to work five to six hours a day.”
When everyone heard this, their eyes immediately lit up.
The quarrel became even louder.
"No way! An ordinary worker only had two taels of silver? Moreover, he only worked for 10 to 16 hours a day, and the treatment was so good!”
Ten to six hours was equivalent to nearly half a day.
However, in the eyes of these commoners, whatever they did now, they would wake up early and sleep until night. They would just eat and sleep, and then wake up in the morning to continue working.
If he could start work early in the next ten to six hours, he might be able to go home before dark.
Wasn't this better than what they were doing now?
Not only could he not earn money, but he was also busy and bitter all day.
Therefore, when these commoners heard this, they felt that a pie had fallen from the sky!
"You people, let me finish.”
"Just now, I only mentioned the wages of ordinary workers. There are also carpenters, stonemasons, bricklayers, blacksmiths, and other slightly skilled workers. Their wages are even higher.”
"I don't know the details, but if it's better than a normal worker's monthly salary, it should be four or five taels of silver.”
Hearing this.
The crowd exploded in excitement once again!
How could ordinary people get four or five taels of salary a month? This was simply like smoke rising from their ancestors 'graves!
"If this is true, then the Prefect is a peerless good man!" someone exclaimed excitedly.”
"Yeah, we commoners are really seeing money now!”
"I hope this is true. After all, this matter hasn't really been posted.”
Some of the commoners believed it, while others did not.
The person who spoke was a little unhappy.
"Hey, what do you mean by 'I hope it's true?”
"I already said that my family has relatives in the government.”
"Next, our Fuzhou government will build all kinds of factories, such as brick factories and cement factories.”
Some commoners had never heard of these names before. They scratched their heads and said,"Did your relative hear this too?”
The man smiled smugly.
"You don't understand, do you? I heard that our magistrate had already done this when he was in Xu Prefecture.”
"There are also some people in the government who followed him all the way from Xuzhou, so it's true that our Fuzhou government is going to build a large infrastructure this time.”
After the people were happy for a while, they said worriedly,"But each person will be paid at least two taels of silver, and some will be paid four or five taels more.”
"There are so many commoners in our Fuzhou Prefecture. How much silver would that cost?”
"Yeah, can this be done?"
"When the time comes, I'm afraid that this gimmick might sound good, but the money we get might not be!”
The person who told him the news snorted coldly.
"A bunch of ignorant people, how could the magistrate lie to you unruly people?”
"Take a good look. There are already people hiring at West Street!”
"At this moment, some of the people who heard the news probably ran to the factory to start working.”
Hearing this.
Everyone hesitated.
However, not long after, explosive news came from the crowd.
Someone had really gone to take the job.
Moreover, when they went to register there, the news from the government was indeed the same as what this person had said.
The lowest salary was two taels.
This was no longer a rumor.
It was because everyone in Fuzhou Prefecture had already begun to know that this was the truth.
Then…
News came from outside the city again.
There were already factories being built there.
Following that, the requirements for the workers hired by the factory were also out.
The content of the task was very simple. It was just some hard work such as moving bricks.
This was the ordinary worker that the person had mentioned just now.
Until now.
The citizens of Fuzhou finally believed that they could earn a fortune!
One by one, they ran home excitedly and brought their family members who could work to the factories to register.
The entire Fuzhou Prefecture was in full swing.
Almost no one was willing to stay at home.
Because…
It was now a good time for everyone to earn big money!
If he missed this opportunity, he would not be able to find this shop.
Who would go against money?
......
The Brocade Guard quickly followed them and shuttled through the crowd.
They followed the citizens to the factory.
In the end.
As soon as he arrived outside the factory, he realized that there were even more people here.
It was so densely packed that it was basically impossible to squeeze in.
Seeing this situation.
Many commoners ran outside the government office.
There was a scene of crying everywhere.
"My lord! I beg you, please arrange a worker quota for our family!”
"There are five of us in our family, but in the end, we didn't even get a single spot. This is too unfair.”
"Our family is the same. Our three sons are as strong as cows. One of them can do the work of three people! Sir, give us some work too!”
Seeing such a scene.
The Brocade Guard also realized that the salary they had mentioned before was true. Otherwise, these people would cry and shout for work.
However…
No matter how many people knelt outside the government office, the government office still did not open the door.
After a while.
A few of Meng Yin's subordinates came out of the government office.
Looking at this noisy scene.
"You bunch of unruly people, what are you crying for?!"”
"Didn't the officials already say so? He had enough recruitment, and he would definitely inform them again if there were any recruitment plans in the future!”
"It's not like there's nothing else. What are you all doing here?”
"Hurry up and disperse!"
After saying this.
There was still wailing outside.
"But Sir, even if there's another recruitment notice, we have so many people in Fuzhou Prefecture. We might not be able to snatch it from them.”
"Yes, there are people who plan to go to the government in the middle of the night to watch the announcement.”
Hearing this.
The official frowned and continued,"Although the government is no longer recruiting, there are still many caravans in Fuzhou Prefecture. They have invested in many industries in Fuzhou Prefecture.”
"They are also recruiting now. You can go to the places where merchants are recruiting.”
"As for the price they offered, it shouldn't be much different from the government's.”
