Wang Bi, Zhang Han and others sat down for a long time. Apart from analyzing the pros and cons, they didn't say anything useful!
In the end, they all unanimously set their sights on Ying Feiyu!
"Stop! Don't even look at me!"
Ying Feiyu waved his hands subconsciously.
As long as these old guys take a look at me, something bad will happen!
"Hmph! In the final analysis, this matter is all your fault, kid. Who do you think it is? You must come up with an effective method for me today! Otherwise, even if the navy successfully attacks all the remaining states, What’s the use of coming down?”
Ying Zheng also had a fierce look on his face and stared at him angrily.
According to this old man, the reason why women refuse to have children is because his factory employs female workers, giving them an opportunity to make money and indirectly improving their status!
"Then according to the emperor's wishes, I will close down the textile factories all over the Qin Dynasty, so that the female workers will lose their job opportunities, will they be able to have children with peace of mind?"
Ying Feiyu asked leisurely.
"No! Your Majesty, the textile factory is of great importance, and it is not just an issue of female workers!"
"Yes! The textile factory is for cotton farmers above, but it is also related to the livelihood of the people below! Once it is closed, who will the cotton from all over Daqin be sold to? There is no market for cotton, how can the farmers who grow cotton live? Without low-priced cotton cloth, the people Their livelihoods will also be greatly affected, and there will definitely be resistance!”
"Yes, the textile factory must not be closed...!"
Before Ying Zheng could speak, several veterans waved their hands and refused to shut down.
Today's textile factories are no longer just personal industries!
Everything is related to the livelihood of the people. If you want to shut it down, it depends on the attitude of the people!
In the past two years, cotton and cotton cloth have become necessities for the people!
Cotton cloth is soft and comfortable, and the most important thing is that it is cheap. It is a must-have for almost all people's homes!
"Textile factories cannot be shut down and female workers still need to be employed. How to solve the population problem?"
Ying Zheng glanced at everyone with sharp eyes.
Not surprisingly, the veterans lowered their heads again!
"snort……!"
Guessing that they would be like this, Ying Zheng snorted coldly and looked at Ying Feiyu, "In the end, this matter still happened because of you. It's up to you to solve it!"
It is expected that the ministers like myself have no good solution, so they can only rely on Xiao Zhengtai.
This guy has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, so he might be able to come up with a way to get the best of both worlds!
"Alas! My son helped the people solve their livelihood problems, and now he has made a mistake. It is really unreasonable...!"
Ying Feiyu stood up helplessly and walked leisurely to the middle of the imperial study, "Actually, this matter is not that difficult to solve."
"Oh? His Royal Highness really has a solution?"
The old guys’ eyes lit up.
As long as this matter is resolved, His Majesty will not look down on them everywhere.
“Can’t we just find the source of the problem and solve it?”
Ying Feiyu said calmly.
"Your Highness, I know this too, but the source is that female workers want to make money and are unwilling to give up their jobs just to go home and give birth to children! But the textile factory cannot be shut down, so we are in a dilemma!"
Zhang Han shrugged helplessly.
When the people from the Ministry of Household Affairs went to investigate, he was already in a dilemma, and he still hasn't come up with a suitable solution!
"There is no need to shut down the textile factories!"
"Oh? Does that mean that all female workers are kicked out and no longer employed?"
The old guys can only think of these crude methods.
"Drive away the female workers and you will spin the thread?"
Ying Feiyu immediately rolled his eyes back.
"Ouch! Your Highness, please stop being so secretive and speak quickly!"
The old guys are in a hurry.
"Female workers in textile factories range from teenagers to over fifty. As long as they are healthy, they can all come to work!"
"But not all of these people have the conditions to have children!"
"Those women who are married and have the potential to have children are reluctant to give up their current job opportunities, so they choose not to have children. So, we will reserve this job opportunity for them!"
"When a woman finds out she is pregnant, she can apply to the supervisor of the workshop to be transferred to a more relaxed position until the child is born successfully!"
"After the birth, we can also give them half a year to a year's maternity leave, continue to pay some meager salary during this period, and promise them that after the maternity leave is over, they can continue to work at any time as long as they still want to come back!"
After Ying Feiyu said all this slowly, the veterans were full of surprise and applauded.
A smile gradually appeared on Ying Zheng's face!
"Your Highness, how did you come up with this method? The previous encouragement policy, one for pigs and two for sheep, didn't work at all. With this method of yours, as long as you give them an appropriate salary after the birth, it will work. They are encouraged to produce to a great extent!”
"Yes! Nowadays, most of the factories are mechanized production. As long as pregnant women are given a relatively easy job, they can work normally until they give birth!"
"You can continue to work after giving birth, so they don't have to worry at all...!"
Faced with the compliments from the veterans, Ying Feiyu smiled lightly.
This is just a very common little trick in later generations, there is nothing surprising at all!
In addition to maternity insurance, there are many benefits for future generations!
If necessary, we can really make arrangements in this era, which will shock these old guys for a while!
"Okay, that's it!"
Ying Zheng made the decision immediately.
"etc……"
However, Ying Feiyu stopped him.
"What? The idea was yours, do you have any other opinions?"
"No! Father, have you forgotten something?"
"What's up?"
"Female workers must be given certain subsidies during childbirth. Should the court provide this subsidy? After all, this is to encourage female workers to have children and increase the population for the court?"
She has more than one or two female workers, and most of the entire textile factory is female.
There are many other industries as well.
As a result, a lot of money is spent every year just for the salary during maternity leave!
"Hmph! What a beautiful idea! You earn so much money every year that you can't even spend it all. This part should be regarded as the benefits you give to the workers!"
Ying Zheng snorted coldly and spoke.
What he was actually more worried about was whether he could keep his five hundred thousand gold.
I vaguely agreed to this bet a few days ago, but now that I think about it, it doesn’t feel right!
Forget it, once we really lose, we will consider it as subsidizing this guy’s salary for the female workers during their maternity leave!
"Is your minister giving benefits to the workers? Then the credit goes to your minister!"
I used this method to provoke my father-in-law before and it worked very well.
So he still says that today!
"good!"
However, this time, Dad Zha was not fooled and only nodded slightly.
Look at that posture, no matter what he says, this old coward won't pay for it!
The child is older and is no longer easy to fool!
