The countdown to the grand military parade is on the second day.
Even Zhu Ying didn't expect it.
This recruitment will create such a big sensation.
After all, he underestimated the impact that the two hundred wages without requirements for joining the company would have on the current Ming Dynasty.
In the 24th year of Hongwu's reign, a large-scale census was conducted to collect statistics on the registered population in Nanjing.
Among them, the total number registered is about 700,000.
However, these statistics do not include military households.
At present, there are a total of forty-two guards in the capital's garrison. According to the editor, there are 5,600 people per guard, which means there are 235,000 people.
Among them, there are naturally many singles, but there are also many who are married.
Even if the family members are reduced to 30%, there are still about 300,000 people.
Counting this alone, the population of the capital has exceeded one million.
Among them, there is also a large floating population.
Such as the appointment and dismissal of officials and reporting on their duties.
The business population in the capital, under the influence of national policies in recent years, has begun to compete with the Jiangnan region.
There are also a large number of disaster victims.
No matter where in the Ming Dynasty, once a disaster strikes, the direction of the refugees will definitely be the capital.
Although the journey is long, due to the influence of the total number of years, there are not many people who have reached the capital.
Current estimates put the capital's population at about two million.
Compared with the three million people at the peak of the entire Ming Dynasty, there is still a gap. After all, the overall number is still increasing.
And among the two million people, 80% are ordinary people.
Among the 80% of the people who are in need of employment, the lowest estimate is at least 500,000 people.
In addition, due to the influence of wars in the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties, the ratio of men to women was imbalanced. In terms of personality comparison, women are naturally much taller.
Currently, this is the only company that recruits women.
So you can imagine how big an impact this will cause.
Facing this recruitment, Uncle Zhang was actually very cautious, and he arranged a large number of manpower for this purpose.
However, under the current circumstances, even with all the personnel of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce in the capital, facing the impact of hundreds of thousands of people, they still can't make any trouble.
But now that things have come to this, we can only bite the bullet.
Looking at the invisible long queue and the dense crowd, Uncle Zhang's mouth was full of bitterness.
The recruitment of workers has caused a huge sensation in the entire Ming Dynasty.
In less than half an hour, the news had reached Zhu Yuanzhang.
Mainly because the queues of hundreds of thousands of people almost blocked many streets in Daming, which seriously affected the passage of all people.
The most obvious thing is that the number of latecomers to the morning meeting today is the highest in history.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the courtiers below, not looking towards his grandson.
This was his first time to hold such a court meeting.
The morning session at Fengtian Palace has never been so empty.
The number of officials in the daily morning court is about four hundred, but today, the number of officials may be less than forty.
"What's the situation now?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked Jiang Yu helplessly.
This was all caused by Da Sun, and he could not hold the ministers accountable for being late.
Jiang Wei's forehead was covered with sweat. Hearing this, he quickly replied: "Your Majesty, because Qunying Chamber of Commerce has a recruitment location, which is on the main street entering the palace."
"Currently, the entire main street has been blocked to the point of being flooded. All the officials coming to the DPRK are completely blocked. Even the Jin Yiwei cannot get through."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said: "Can't we let the Jin Yiwei or the personnel of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division clear a path for passage?"
Jiang Wei said helplessly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the people's emotions are too intense and they are not willing to let go of this queue. Even if the Jin Yiwei passes by, it will not help."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said in a deep voice: "What's going on? Is it possible that the common people don't even have the slightest fear of facing the Jin Yiwei?"
Jiang Wei hurriedly explained: "Replying to your Majesty, the key is that the number of people is too great. Wei Chen also went to see it just now and almost didn't come back."
"When a dozen brothers entered, the common people gave way. Because there were too many people, after the brothers entered, they couldn't see anyone at all, and they didn't know where they were squeezed."
Jiang Wei was very helpless.
When something like this happens, of course he will investigate it immediately.
But as he watched helplessly, a dozen Jin Yiwei brothers fell into the crowd and disappeared in just a dozen breaths.
He knew it was not that simple anymore.
In fact, it is easy to understand that such a situation will occur.
On the notice wall, the number of workers recruited is very clear, and the total number is only 25,000.
In the absence of any requirements, any fool can guess it, and naturally it is first come, first served.
As a result, even the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, or the Imperial Guards, would not be able to function.
This is a matter of eating. Even if you step aside temporarily and then see others squeezing in, how can you bear it?
As for the officials in Beijing.
Even the imperial guards are of no use. The officials are giving you a hammer.
The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest thing.
In this torrent, no one can do anything.
"Dasun, you are the one who created the trap. There is nothing we can do now. We need you to find a solution quickly."
"See for yourself what this morning has become."
"In the twenty-five years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, this is the first time we have encountered such a situation."
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was a little helpless.
In fact, the current situation is generally very risky.
With so many people gathering, it would be difficult to cause a stampede accidentally.
Even those with ulterior motives may secretly cause trouble.
Zhu Ying was naturally aware of the seriousness of the problem and said to Jiang Wei: "We have to trouble Commander Jiang to summon him and stop recruiting workers immediately. We will notify you later."
Jiang Wei quickly took orders and rushed there.
Even if you are even a moment late in lighting the incense, serious problems may arise.
"Okay, let's retire and go do whatever you have to do."
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and waved his hands and said.
A morning pilgrimage with dozens of people is meaningless.
Of course, it is impossible to take a holiday. There is no morning dynasty, but there is also noon dynasty.
In the canopy palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "What a great grandson, you have attracted the attention of the whole capital with such a grand gesture."
Zhu Ying replied: "Although my grandson guessed that there would be a lot of people, he didn't expect that there would be so many people."
Zhu Yuanzhang asked: "It has caused such a sensation this time. It must have paved the way for your next strategy."
Regarding the recruitment of workers, Zhu Ying had naturally communicated with the old man.
The general idea is also briefly described.
Strictly speaking, this is a matter involving tens of millions of banknotes, which is more than the amount of banknotes issued in the Ming Dynasty in one year.
"The effect has exceeded my grandson's imagination, and it will be of great help to the next things."
Speaking of this, Zhu Ying couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
Sensational effect is the key to hype.
Only if enough people know and pay attention to this event, the subsequent arrangements will become easier to start with.
And today's morning situation is still a very good gimmick.
At least within half a month, it will be the talk of most people.
"Let's see how Da Sun raised 8.5 million guan of treasure banknotes in just one month." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
Zhu Ying's current plan is to sell 40% of the shares in all factories.
The brewery has given away 30% of the blue jade, so it can only sell the 20%.
"Grandpa, don't worry. In the current situation, my grandson probably won't even need it for half a month."
