"Wait a minute, you continue to deal with the refugees staying in Linghu City."
"I will personally go back to Baixiang Town and have a good chat with Mr. Wang Dashan."
Chu Qianqiu then thought about it, since he was still going to enter the cycle, he might as well go to Baixiang Town to visit Xiaoxiao, and then chat with Wang Dashan.
"Yes, lord." The two of them breathed a sigh of relief quickly, but they didn't know that endless work was waiting for them.
Baixiang Town, Wangfu.
Ever since Wang Yuan took refuge with Chu Qianqiu, Wang Rong was unwilling to do so at first. He wanted to be the prime minister, govern the country, save the crisis, and eliminate rebellion.
Then he would be the first to jump out, hold high the flag of justice, and tell the story of his own humiliating experience.
Who would have expected that things would develop so fast?
Now Wang Rong is wholeheartedly preparing to hold Chu Qianqiu's lap. No matter what Huang Xiaoxiao asks, he will cooperate unconditionally.
As for today, he was just doing what a landlord should do.
Wang Rong was sighing at the long-term workers.
"Fathers, brothers and sisters of Baixiang Town."
"You all know that Mr. Wang is a very charitable person."
"A few years ago, there was a famine in Lingzhou. Wang donated a total of 50,000 taels of silver, which was visible to the villagers."
The long-term workers looked at each other in silence. They were already used to Mr. Wang's performance, although the scoundrels present quickly shouted: Hey
"Master Wang is right!"
"Mr. Wang is the most famous good man in our ten miles and eight villages!"
Unfortunately, the long-term workers seemed to have a premonition and just looked at the people around them with numb expressions, secretly wary.
"Sir, I have been taught a lesson by my parents since I was a child. What did they teach me? They said that Mr. Wang is too kind-hearted and does not want to see others suffer."
"I'm going to get into trouble here in the future."
"As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences."
"Wang became soft-hearted and fell into trouble."
Seeing that no one had any reaction, Wang Rong was not angry at all and continued to boast.
The long-term workers were still silent. They seemed to have some ominous premonition about the future. They all lowered their heads and it was dark.
"What happened?"
"There are more and more refugees coming from Fengzhou. They are taking over all the jobs and they are willing to accept the lowest price."
"They don't even ask for a penny. As long as they have food to eat, they are willing to work for us."
"They are very low-level, very mean-spirited, and very shameless. They come here specifically to steal the jobs of fellow villagers."
"But Mr. Wang can use these free refugees to let down the folks in Baixiang Town, Yanbo Town and Qingshi Town."
"No, it can't be done."
Wang Rong shouted at the top of his lungs, and the losers below kept shouting:
"Mr. Wang is righteous, Mr. Wang is a model for Lingzhou!"
But the long-term workers under the podium still remained silent. You looked at me, I looked at you, and there was no expression of excitement.
Maybe the future long-term workers of the Wang family will be excited when they hear this. They are all long-term workers who have experienced hundreds of battles.
After all, they have been hearing this for almost 20 or 30 years. As soon as Mr. Wang sticks his butt out, the long-term workers know what he is going to fart.
"But sir, I still spent two taels of silver, which is one tael and a few pennies, to support everyone."
"There are not just thousands of long-term workers working for the Wang family every year, but literally tens of thousands."
"Inside and out, how much money has the Wang family lost?"
"Everyone knows that in their hearts."
When Wang Rong said this, he was already at a loss for words.
Regardless of whether long-term workers oppose it or support it, wage cuts are inevitable.
He is very aware of how surplus labor is in Lingzhou now.
The landowners thought the wages set in the past were too high.
As long as the salary of 10,000 long-term workers is reduced by one tael, the Wang family will earn an additional 10,000 taels of silver a year.
You can also choose to do good deeds in the future.
Who can have trouble with money?
"So I had to make a difficult decision."
"There is nothing we can do about this."
Wang Rong shouted heartbrokenly.
All the long-term workers set their sights on the master who controls their destiny.
In fact, they have accepted the fate of salary cuts.
Otherwise, they won't be able to defeat the old men. There are so many refugees fleeing from Fengzhou now, what can they do?
If, according to what the Ya people said, all the refugees in Fengzhou were driven away, the gentlemen might be able to raise their wages.
【Master Wang, long time no see.】
[I will set a rule for you. From now on, the lowest annual salary in Lingzhou shall not be less than two taels of silver.]
Chu Qianqiu did not show up, but faintly sent a message over.
When the head of the Wang family talked about the critical moment, he was like a duck with its neck stuck, instantly stagnating in the middle. Even his eldest son, Wang Ren, couldn't help but murmured.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"I am also planning to speak, crying about how difficult it is for our Wang family and how much money is spent on the long-term workers."
Under the attention of everyone, Wang Rong shouted loudly:
"Even if I lose so much money!"
"The Wang family will never let down the folks."
"From today on, the minimum wage for long-term workers will be two taels of silver. There will be no ambiguity!"
At this moment, Wang Rong burst into tears.
[Lord Zhongwu, if you want to come, let me know early.]
[I definitely won’t speak. Whatever you say is what you say.]
ah
The long-term workers seemed to have heard wrongly.
The entire venue became silent.
"Dad, are you right?" Wang Ren asked cautiously.
[I mean the minimum is two, I didn’t say the Wang family’s is two.] Chu Qianqiu sent the message in with a smile, and the head of the Wang family shouted with tears in his eyes: Hey
"That's right!"
"Not only that, our Wang family must set an example for the entire Linghu City landlords."
"My family is a kind person, and the minimum is two!"
"If you violate this oath, you will be struck by lightning, and you will not enter the Buddhist kingdom after death, but will fall into hell forever!"
At this time, the long-term workers finally showed moved expressions. I don’t know who took the lead. There was a storm in the entire venue, and everyone applauded!
A storm of applause resounded throughout the sky, and the long-term workers shouted excitedly:
"Master Wang is auspicious, Master Wang is righteous."
[Are you recruiting just this few people?]
[Lingzhou is in short supply of employers now, so why not the Wang family also open some workshops? 】
Chu Qianqiu added another sentence, and Wang Rong's face changed drastically, and he shouted on the spot:
"Fathers and fellow countrymen!"
"Not only will the Wang family not lay off any long-term workers, we will also open a new workshop and hire a thousand more people!"
"If you have any relatives or friends, you can introduce them here."
"Good luck to you, Mr. Wang!"
Auspicious Nima!
Mr. Wang's heart was bleeding and he wanted to cry but had no tears.
He had to shout righteously that at least Chu Qianqiu left him with this reputation.
If he doesn't know how to appreciate someone, then it's not a simple threat.
If you don't do it, I will take away all your property. If you do this again, you should be rewarded.
…
Baixiang Town, Wangfuxi
Wang Rong looked left and right, but he didn't find Chu Zhongwu's whereabouts.
"I'm here."
Chu Qianqiu sat down on the main seat without being polite at all.
"Lord Zhongwu, I definitely didn't lower the price intentionally."
When Wang Rong saw Chu Qianqiu, he knelt down and shouted.
