Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2351: Free slaves to build Jiangbei for guests

Liu Yu smiled and said, "You are women going to top half of the sky. In the past, only men went out to work and serve in groups, but if you can let women do the same, that would be great."

He said, but he sighed in his heart. This Fatty Liu is really a genius. He was in the Jin Dynasty, and he was able to create this kind of big factory and migrant girl system like New China nearly two thousand years later. There is more than fat and oil in this belly, it is more wisdom.

Liu Muzhi hooked up the corner of his mouth: "Although we women in Jingkou can work in the ground, we don’t need to wear a mili like a city girl, but after all, women’s family, if you walk more than ten miles a day, Traveling to the county is not only tiring, but also arouses people to gossip. If we can weave together and the government provides these raw silk materials, it will be much better. In addition, the cloth, silk and silk previously stocked, unless it is necessary to prepare for war. Those who come to make military uniforms for the soldiers can be sold at a fair price. Even if the family is rich, they can’t eat this endless stream of silk cloth. In the end, they can only give in. In this way, the cloth price in Beijing can be It's up to us."

Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction: "But, the money sold in this way should go to the national treasury. How much should the craftsmen and the women weaving weave in?"

Liu Muzhi laughed and said: "The money from the sale of silk and silk can be divided among the workers in the cloth shop and the women in the village according to the wages of the part-time work. Now the work in the capital is almost 20 dollars a day. Add a little more to 25. The wages for women in the village are halved, and 15 is enough. They are meritorious soldiers and family members. The court has issued corresponding regulations to treat them preferentially. This wage is the most Good treatment."

"In addition, the money from selling cloth can also be divided into 10%, about one person is about five dollars, as a reward and share, not everyone gets five dollars, but doing well and doing fast , They can earn up to twenty-five dollars a day, which is equivalent to their wages. Even the basic production tasks and sales can't be completed. The least will not add money, only wages. This will stimulate them to do more. Yes, do less and get less, and don’t do it, so as to avoid some people doing nothing and doing nothing."

Liu Yu smiled and clapped his hands: "Fatty, you still have a way. You can think of it all. You are a **** genius."

Liu Muzhi "hehe" smiled: "Actually, these are just the basic stimulus and reward methods in the military. It's just that this military method is rarely used in the civilian population. After all, the military has to be highly organized and must let everyone People do their best and use everything to the best of their ability. After we return to our hometown, it is often that households work alone. At most, the neighbors have nothing to do with everything. It is not possible to form such a large-scale collective production. I hope that through this event Try to implement this collective labor and unified management in farming, from Jiankang and Jingkou to the entire Dajin. Only in this way can everyone truly be organized and used. Only in this way can we Truly dig out the roots of aristocratic families, so that every citizen is obeyed by the country, not the family."

Liu Yuzheng said: "Well said, these aristocratic families used their power and land to arbitrarily enclose slaves and collect large numbers of northern refugees and bankrupt Dajin farmers as their own tenants. These tenants are not. Reporting to the country was purely a serf who farmed for them for generations. This kind of unearned parasitic method of the family was based on the enslavement of these tenant farmers. The court and the country could not grasp the situation of these people before, and even the manor Many people don’t know that this situation can only be broken if the tenant farmers come out to do things for the court and the country."

Liu Muzhi laughed and said: "Yes, in fact, the last time Sima Yuanxian wanted to enlist in Sanwu, he also had this idea, but the biggest mistake he made was that he only wanted to grab people from the family, but I don’t want to think about whether these tenant farmers are willing to accept a new life, and do not think of ways to make these tenant farmers have something to do and have food to eat. To be a slave in his army, it is better to be a tenant farmer in the original master’s house. It gave the heavenly master a chance to take advantage of."

Liu Yuchang sighed: "Yes, so you are a smart move. First, through concentrated farming, farming, and weaving, let the world see that doing things for the country and working is more hopeful than doing things for the manor owners. Can live a good life. In this way, if the court recruits workers publicly, the tenant farmers will not take the initiative to hide, but will run out to contribute to the country and earn more money. But, fat man, have you ever thought about it? If you do, how could a family of high-ranking masters sit and wait for death? If all the tenant farmers under them ran away, they wouldn't drink the northwest wind."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "This is the most important step. Tenant farmers are often either refugees from the north or bankrupt farmers. They owe money to the family and sign a contract to sell their bodies before entering the family’s manor to work in farming. Although there is no shortage of families like the Xie family who are relatively kind and don’t force tenant farmers to stay, most of them want to treat these tenant farmers as their own slaves and cattle for generations. If the country moves their farmers, They will come up with various sales deeds to fight against. These sales deeds and debt debt documents were officially recognized at the time of the Dajin, and they were often stamped with the official seal. Since we are resuming the Dajin, we have to recognize them."

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "So ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ You fat man didn't think of a solution now?"

Liu Muzhi sighed: "Yes, I didn't think about this step. Not only was the family in the capital occupying a large number of slaves in Sanwu Manor, but even many small and medium-sized local tyrants in the Wu area also counted on their families to live. Like the Shen family Brothers are a typical example. They are the Beijing eight brothers of the Beifu Army. They have been fighting for a long time in these years, and they often have to buy a few servants and tenant farmers to work in the family. Even your family now has more than a dozen households."

Liu Yu smiled and said: "This is not an unsolvable problem. The tenant farmers just owe money to the owner's family. They don't mean that they will become slaves to their family. They don't have any freedom. As long as they can pay back the money, they won't end up. ?"

Liu Muzhi's eyes lit up: "You mean..."

Liu Yu put a smile away, and said in a deep voice: "We can provide tenant farmers with higher money than working in the city, such as forty dollars a day, to attract tenant farmers in these manors to no longer rent the land of the owner, but Come to work for the imperial court. After earning money, the imperial court can still lend them half and let them redeem their lives. As long as personal freedom is restored, they will be Tuntian in the six counties of Jiangbei, with Guangling and Pengcheng as the two core cities, attracting Wudi The people move. I want the Northern Expedition in the future, so I must not make the six counties of Jiangbei as sparsely populated as they are now. What I want is the six counties of Jiangbei, all of them into Jingkou! And this first step is to avoid slavery as a guest!"
