How can a person not bow his head when he is under the eaves? What's more, what Wei Zhixian said is right. Why did you rely on labor to make a living when you were in your hometown, but when you came to Fuyang, you wanted to sit back and do nothing? Are you fleeing or are you here on vacation?
Under the organization of the official officials, the victims got off the boat and went to the dock. A fence had been built on the dock, and only ten families could be allowed in at a time, and the ten families must protect each other.
This would be unimaginable in later generations, and chaos would break out immediately. However, the people of the Ming Dynasty were originally divided into ten households, and there was no need for temporary arrangements.
Ten families of victims who were let through the gate were registered at a row of tables. Behind the tables sat a group of scribes from each household. They recorded in detail the place of origin, address, household, etc. of each household, as well as each person's name and age.
, population, health status...and then ask them to sign a mutual insurance agreement.
After signing this document, if anyone commits a crime, ten families will be imprisoned... Otherwise, how can Weizhi County safely allow 30,000 foreigners to flood into the county?
After registering and signing, the victims were led to the next gate. Behind them, another ten families of victims began to register...
After entering the second gate, a clerk asked the victims what kind of house they wanted to live in.
The victims were stunned. What level do they have?
"There are three grades. The upper class has a single hospital, which costs one dan per month. The middle class has two hospitals and one hospital, which costs 200 coins per month. The lower class has four hospitals and one hospital, which costs 100 coins per month." The clerk said.
"What, you still need money for accommodation?" the victims asked with wide eyes.
"When did the accommodation become free?" The clerk's eyes widened: "The house you live in was made available by the people of Fuyang through their best efforts. How could you live in it for free?"
"Ahem." A young man in a green shirt and official scarf coughed twice: "You can live here if you don't have money..." Before the victims became happy, they heard him say again: "Keep track of the accounts first.
Just pay the rent with work.”
"Scare," the victims said unhappily: "Why do you need money for everything? I've never heard of people charging money to resettle victims."
"Other counties are building shacks, and this county has also built shacks by the river." The clerk was Wang Xian. He said expressionlessly: "If you don't want to live in a house, you can live in a shack. It's also free of charge.
.”
Although they were reluctant, they had already reached this point, not to mention that the rent was really cheap and they could still owe it first. All ten families chose to spend money to rent a house.
So the scribe issued a bamboo sign to each household, with the name of the householder on the front and the information of the rented house on the back. He ordered: "You are divided into thirteen li. When you go out of this door, the chief of the house will be outside. You hold
Pai meets him, and he will arrange the rest of the matter. He will also be in charge of you during your stay in Fuyang County."
This wave of people goes out, and the next wave comes in, and the cycle starts over and over again, seemingly endlessly...
Wang Xian looked at it for a while, then looked up and saw the sixteen characters on the archway, and rubbed his temples helplessly. This is really a situation where the subordinates broke their legs just because of their superiors' words... not only broke their legs because of running away, it was really exhausting their energy and their brains!
It takes one county to complete the disaster relief work for 30,000 people, and at the same time ensures the livelihood of the people in the county. This work is so difficult and complicated that it makes people shudder when thinking about it. But Wang Xian has to use the power of one person to
Complete the entire plan, work out the details, and even supervise on-site... It is no exaggeration to say that Wei Zhixian is only responsible for two tasks-showing his face and giving orders. The most nerve-wracking planning and the most troublesome specific execution are all Wang Xian's.
Errands.
Without the support of an efficient team, even with Wang Xian's professional ability, he would not be able to do this. Fortunately, after his training, Hufang's efficiency has been greatly improved, so that he does not have to worry about specific matters and can concentrate on planning.
.
In today's Fuyang County, Er Yin, Three Yamen and Four Laodian have become the ones who actually handle things. Wei Zhixian has all the power, but he obeys Wang Xianyan. On the matter of disaster relief, he even gives him full power to plan, and he is at his disposal. Therefore, Diao is so cunning.
The chief clerk and others said in a strange tone that in Fuyang County, there is now a sitting magistrate in clay sculpture and a standing magistrate in blue shirt...
Mr. Sima also mentioned this to Wei Zhixian, but Wei Zhixian didn't take it seriously. He said that Han Emperor Gaozu was not as good as Xiao He in governing the country, not as good in strategy as leading troops, and not as good in leading troops as Han Xin. Why are the three of them his subordinates? Nothing else, because
Liu Bang was able to recognize and control people.
Of course, the deeper reason is that the status difference between the two is too big, and Wei Zhixian is not worried that his authority will be taken away by Wang Xian.
In fact, if possible, Wang Xian would not want to show off his talents like this, but in extraordinary times, disaster relief is the biggest, and if he fails to do anything wrong, he will be defeated, and there is no room for him to hide his clumsiness.
What Wang Xian was most worried about before was whether the victims would not accept "relief for work" and "rent for work" and cause trouble. Until now, he saw that most people accepted it calmly.
After making arrangements, the stone in his heart fell to the ground.
No matter how clever his plan is, everyone must first accept his gameplay. Fortunately, the people of this era are still very simple, and as disaster victims, they are even more cautious. As long as the government's arrangements are not too excessive, they will accept them.
As for the reason why the people of Fuyang are so cooperative, in addition to Wang Xian's relatively reasonable arrangement, it is also because Wei Zhixian announced that any family that provides housing for disaster victims without any problems can be exempted from paying taxes for the whole year. But it is not enough. This is almost
A big move involving every household would be absolutely impossible to achieve without the support of big families.
Weizhi County offered the support of wealthy households in Fuyang in exchange for not overhauling the Yellow Register...
Wei Zhixian was very painful about this, but he also knew that those old and cunning big households would not cooperate without this exchange.
"If you don't overhaul it, don't overhaul it. As long as you can complete the disaster relief beautifully, Dong Weng's reputation will be enough." Sima Qiu comforted him and said, "Rebuilding the Yellow Book would be a surprise. Even if it is completed, Dong Weng is unlikely to be completely healthy."
And retreat."
"I also know that you can't have your cake and eat it too, and those who give up the fish for the bear's paw are the same." Wei Zhixian sighed, "But in order to rebuild the Yellow Book, Zhongde and I worked hard last year..."
"It's okay, teacher," Wang Xian said with a smile, "If you don't have the fish you caught last year, how can you get bear's paws?"
"That's right." Wei Zhixian smiled when he heard this and said, "Do you feel relieved that you don't have to revise the yellow book anymore?"
"The teacher knows me." Wang Xian smiled sheepishly: "Students don't want to offend their parents and fellow villagers, and in the end they won't be able to gain a foothold in Fuyang."
"Oh, rural wishes are the thief of virtue, and they are indeed true." Wei Zhixian shook his head and said, "We must do the disaster relief well, otherwise we will lose both our wife and our troops as a teacher!"
"Yes." Wang Xian responded in a deep voice.
.
After gaining the support of the wealthy gentry, Wang Xiancai ordered the mobilization of counties, towns and villages in Fuyang County.
In addition to vacating the house, he also ordered the chiefs of each district to be responsible for the care of the victims, restrain the unruly people in the village, and strictly prohibit harassment of the victims and extortion of money. If there is any violation, they will be sent to jail for "sabotaging disaster relief" and they will be stripped of their skin even if they don't die...
…
Why are the county chiefs most reluctant to accept disaster victims? Because these outsiders will compete with the indigenous people for food. Even if they do not need the government to release food, they will still raise local food prices and squeeze out the livelihood of the indigenous people. Therefore, all counties regard the disaster victims as a burden.
Seeing it as a burden, I naturally resist it in every possible way.
Wang Xian doesn't see it that way. He knows that people are the most precious resource. The victims only lost their homes, but not their labor force. If the tsunami hadn't turned them into disaster victims, how could Fuyang County have obtained so much cheap labor?
If these labor forces are mobilized, how can they still be a burden? And as long as they are arranged properly, they will not squeeze out the livelihood of Fuyang people at all, but will greatly promote the development of Fuyang.
Wang Xian, the soul from six hundred years in the future, is very familiar with this, that is, massive construction!
When Weizhi County had nothing to do for the 30,000 disaster victims and was worried about the consequences of right and wrong, Wang Xian offered advice: "Teacher, haven't you been worried that there are too few fields in this county and that we rely too much on outsourcing for food? Now there are so many
With cheap labor, why not take advantage of the opportunity to build terraces?"
When Wei Zhixian heard this, his eyes lit up, what a great idea!
You must know that the imperial court's inspection of officials focuses on population and acres of land. If the population cannot be increased, it is also very good to clear out wasteland. And the wasteland will be official land, which is the most appetizing to the court!
Fuyang is a special place. It has eight mountains, half water, and half fields. The flat land suitable for growing crops is only one and a half percent of the county's area, and it is occupied by residential land. It would be nice to have one farmland. If you want to expand the cultivated land, you can only
Building terraces...
The most important thing in Fuyang is the hills. As far as the eye can see, there are terraced fields all over the mountains and plains, but most of them are tea gardens.
Because at first the income from growing tea was higher than farming, but when everyone started to grow tea, the price of tea gradually went down, and the price of grain gradually increased. Now the gap between growing tea and COFCO is not that big. And as a county government
, what should be considered more is people's livelihood. In the eyes of officials of this era, it is really unseemly to rely on purchasing 80% of the grain. It would be great if the acres of land could be increased to increase the county's grain production.
"Okay, you will make a charter now. Except for the old, weak, sick and disabled, and young children, all the victims will be allowed to build terraces and provide relief through work!" Wei Zhixian rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "This method is very good.
, it can be said that it kills four birds with one stone! It not only gives the disaster victims something to do and prevents them from causing trouble, but also increases the official land income of the county. It can also alleviate the situation that the county's food is controlled by others. Furthermore, it also provides a basis for the distribution of disaster relief food!
"
"The students have already discussed this matter with the people in the workshop. They are responsible for finding experienced farmers to guide the field construction. Please ask the teacher to personally take charge of the project command and the distribution of relief grains!" Wang Xian said solemnly.
"Oh?" Wei Zhixian was stunned for a moment, then he understood and laughed loudly: "Okay, I will also pick stones to build the ladder myself, leaving a section of 'Wei Yuantian' for the people of Fuyang!"
