Chapter 241: Fire prevention, theft prevention, and human prevention
"Father, those stalls were prepared by sir. I have already eaten them. They are very delicious. Would you like to go over and have a taste?" Young Master Gao said excitedly.
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "When sir comes down, we will taste it together."
"Sir, he won't be coming down anymore. He will be resting in the background."
"Um?"
Ying Zheng looked at Young Master Gao curiously.
Young Master Gao immediately explained: "Sir, after talking about the scandal for so long, his throat must be a little uncomfortable, so he will take a break for half an hour. During this half hour, he will rest in the background, so he will not come out to accompany everyone."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Indeed, after talking for more than an hour, my throat really couldn’t bear it.
"Then let's go take a look." Ying Zheng said.
Then Ying Zheng stood up and walked towards those stalls. Young Master Gao, Li Si and others followed him.
When the villagers saw Ying Zheng and the others coming, they all moved out of the way and lowered their heads in awe. Because they could not kneel down to salute, they could only lower their heads without looking at Ying Zheng and the others to show awe.
All the stalls were suddenly deserted.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng realized something was wrong, so he said: "You can do whatever you want, there is no need to be so restrained."
"No." The villagers responded in unison, but their bodies still did not dare to move.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng frowned slightly and was about to get angry when Young Master Gao said first, "Boss, give my father two scallion pancakes and a glass of honey water."
"promise."
The owner of the scallion pancake stall and the honey water stall owner responded at the same time, and delivered the scallion pancake and honey water to Ying Zheng as quickly as possible.
Before Ying Zheng could reach out to take it, Young Master Gao had already taken it and asked the two of them to go down and buy scallion pancakes and honey water.
"Father, these are the scallion pancakes and honey water invented by my husband. Please try them."
"That's fine." Ying Zheng took the scallion pancake and took a bite.
"Yeah. It's delicious, soft and delicious, and the salty taste is endless. You guys should try it too. By the way, you have to pay for it." Ying Zheng said with a smile.
Ying Zheng understood the reason why Qin'an opened the night market, which was to provide the people with more money and at the same time give the village more income.
The reason why Qin An asked for so much money was to recruit troops.
Sir, it's a pity, even if you don't recruit troops, you will be able to go out in three years.
Young Master Gao also took out a money bag and gave it to Li Si and others, saying: "This is the copper coin made by the village. Now everyone only recognizes this. Of course, they also recognize silver coins and gold coins. However, these two gentlemen have not started making it yet. The gold mine is too not enough."
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "You all just take it. You can buy whatever you want to eat or drink without disturbing the villagers."
He knew that as long as everyone was still here, the villagers would not be able to let go. If they were not let go, the meaning of the night market would be lost.
Li Si and others also casually bought scallion pancakes and honey water and followed Ying Zheng and others back to their original seats.
Watching the people choosing food and drinks at the stalls, there are also children playing games such as hoops, hoops, and archery.
The people at the scene were talking and laughing, which made Ying Zheng very satisfied.
"This is the peaceful and prosperous age, where everyone is talking and laughing. This is the scene I want to see. I want everyone in Daqin to smile like this."
Li Si said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this matter needs long-term consideration. The lanterns haven't been promoted yet. Once the night market opens, all kinds of monsters and monsters will appear."
"Father." Li Xiao said, "We asked my husband about this, and he said that night markets can be opened, but three things need to be paid attention to, one is to prevent fire, one is to prevent theft, and the other is to prevent people."
"I know about fire prevention and theft prevention. But I can't understand this person. What did the gentleman say?" Li Si asked.
"Returning to my father, this is to guard against corrupt officials and local gangsters. The night market is originally a place for people to increase their income, add interesting things, increase consumption, etc.
Therefore, the night market is very profitable and can offset 30% of the country’s tax revenue, or even more.
Because of this, corrupt officials and hooligans will target the people in the night market, extort money, cause trouble, etc.
The teacher said that once the night market is controlled by corrupt officials and local gangsters, the country's income will be reduced, and the night market will become a mess. In the end, people will be vocal and resentful, so it is better not to open the night market. "Xiao Li replied.
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "That's true. If the night market causes public resentment, it would be better not to open it.
Mr. Li, do you have any solution? Especially guard against people. "
Li Xiaozuo bowed and said: "Reporting to your Majesty, sir, you have a way to prevent fire. You need to first place water tanks near stalls or shops.
Then prepare water trucks and water guns, which can quickly carry out fire fighting, fire fighting and other tasks. Special training is required. In the outside world, such people are called firefighters.
In addition to putting out fires, firefighters also rescue people and help people solve some difficult problems, such as people who can't get off the roof, or whose fingers are stuck, etc.
Even if there is an earthquake or flood, firefighters will be dispatched to rescue. "
"There's no need for any of this. The firefighters only need to put out the fire. You can just tell Li Si how to do it."
Next, let’s talk about anti-theft. "Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"No." Principal Li responded, "Anti-theft is actually about preventing petty theft. This is simple. Just send more people to patrol.
In the outside world, there is something called surveillance, which can monitor every move on the scene. Therefore, there is no need for people to patrol the outside world at all.
But we can only send more people to patrol. The husband said that it is best to let those sneaky people participate in the patrol. Only these people know best who will do such sneaky things. Even if such a thing does happen, it will be easier to catch the sneaky people. man of. "
"I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Feng Quji said, "Your Majesty, the thieves should be caught, so how can they be allowed to take on such an important task? If they collude with gangsters, the people will still lose."
"What Xiang Feng said is right, so these people need to be strictly scrutinized, and their family backgrounds are innocent, so it is helpless to do sneaky things.
Or after they cheat, they don't eat, drink and have fun themselves, but help the people and their relatives.
Such people will definitely be able to patrol well without losing their conscience. Of course, official officials from the imperial court will also participate in patrols.
In order for merchants to open their shops safely at night, they also spend some money to reward those who patrol at night.
It can cost one to two cents per shop, which is invisible to businessmen. "
"It makes sense. We can try it out. Let's start in Xianyang City first. If it works well, we can implement it locally." Ying Zheng said slowly.
"Your Majesty is wise." Li Si and others said applauding.
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "College Li, please inform Li Si of the specific matters. How should I guard against others?"
Some people died, but not completely...
