"Long live your Majesty!"
"Long live your Majesty!"
…
Someone knelt down and shouted long live your Majesty.
Then almost everyone knelt down, and the roaring and tsunami-like sound of praise echoed outside the city, melting away the heavy atmosphere of the execution just now.
Nothing makes them happier than being able to survive.
After a while, the cheers died down, and Yuan Chonghuan continued: "The second thing is that from now on, the imperial court will trial the use of fire to return to the public in Liaodong.
The general meaning is that in the future, Huohua will be returned to the imperial court and will no longer be under the control of local officials. The specific benefit is that you will have to pay a lot less Huohao in the future, or even not pay it at all! Have fun everyone! "
"happy!"
"very happy!"
"so happy!"
…
The people cheered again and paid less, which meant that they had more rations and more chances of survival. How could they be unhappy?
"Quiet, quiet!"
"Don't rush to be happy, I have something to announce to make you happier!"
Yuan Chonghuan stretched out his hands and pressed them in mid-air. The cheers slowly died down and then became quiet.
Seeing everyone looking at him expectantly, Yuan Chonghuan chuckled: "Thirdly, Huang Taiji exploded the Liaohe River and created Liaoze. Your Majesty asked me to summon civilians to dig a new river in the direction of Liaoze.
As long as this river is repaired, Liaoze will not appear again, nor will it flood every seven or eight years. The Liaoze problem will be solved once and for all.
Shenyang City tentatively plans to recruit 10,000 people, who will provide food, shelter, and housing, and a monthly salary of one tael. Don’t worry, it won’t be like Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty building the Grand Canal. Those who want to sign up at the North Gate in five days. "
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers' breathing became rapid.
The combination of wars, massacres, Liao Ze and other factors means that this year's harvest will be reduced by at least 70%, not to say that there is no harvest at all, and winter is about to begin.
The winter in the Northeast is extremely cold and food production is reduced. Even if taxes are exempted, it is hard to say whether we can survive this winter.
In the past, when building rivers, labor was required. You had to bring your own tools, and there was no monthly payment. Sometimes you had to bring your own food.
Compared with the current situation of taking care of food, housing, housing and giving money, it is simply a world away.
If you have money, you can naturally buy food. If you buy food, you can survive the winter. When spring comes, there is hope.
Moreover, the journey from here to Panjin is almost more than four hundred miles, and it will take at least several years of work to repair it, so that within a few years there will be a stable source of income.
"Commissioner Yuan Zuo, do you mean what you say? Do you really care about food, food, housing, and money?"
"How dare I lie about such a great matter that benefits the country? Besides, Your Majesty is here. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask?"
"Sir...you are joking! The common man's name is Zheng Laoliu, and he is willing to serve you!"
The person who made the noise looked at the emperor's car in the distance, shrank his neck, and smiled.
"This matter will be issued in the form of an edict, so you can rest assured!"
Seeing that someone else wanted to say something, Yuan Chonghuan immediately added something, and a louder cheer than before resounded through the sky.
The people waved their hands and cheered.
Tax exemption, less firefighting consumption, reduced expenditures, this is saving money, and now the emperor has given them the opportunity to work and earn money, this is a source of income, this is hope.
"Sir, we have been growing up by the Liao River since we were young. We have been sent to the waves for free, and we are very familiar with the nature of the water. Digging the river is just a grassroots!"
"Sir, the common people also grew up by the Liao River and made a living by fishing. They are very familiar with the Liao River. To build the river, you need to survey the water channels. This is something that the common people are familiar with!"
"Sir, the whole family of the little one is dead, and now I am alone. I can dedicate myself to the new canal. I beg you to accept the little one!"
…
One by one, people stood up and squeezed forward, hoping for a spot.
This city of Shenyang is more or less small. Even after passing through the massacre, there are still 60,000 to 70,000 people, and there are many villages and counties around it.
To build the canal, we only need 10,000 people, which is quite limited.
These days, they only have a little strength left.
"Quiet, everyone, please be patient!"
"Building the canal requires good health and no defects or diseases. If you conceal it, your monthly salary will not be paid, and you will be punished with ten sticks!
I do not register here. I will register outside the south gate five days after I want to go. If I queue up early, I will get there early. Anyone who dares to disturb the order will be directly deprived of all qualifications for labor in Shenyang City. "
"Also, don't just focus on this one. After the war, we need to recruit people to repair bridges and roads, etc. Although the salary is not so good, it's not bad!"
These words made the originally excited people quiet down.
But they all made up their minds and queued up in the early morning four days later to get a spot.
Seeing that the people were all quiet, Yuan Chonghuan said with a smile: "There is one last thing. Jiannu was destroyed. The imperial court issued an edict to plow the courtyard and sweep holes. The city of Shenyang was also destroyed. There is an urgent need for officials.
Those who know taxation, prisons, disaster relief, farming, public security, education, etc. can register outside the south gate of the inner city at noon today and assist themselves and officials sent by the imperial court in handling government affairs as subordinate officials.
A centralized inspection will be held in March next year, and those with outstanding performance may be granted official positions under special circumstances.
At the beginning of the year, the imperial court issued a salary system for officials in the Ming Dynasty. The monthly salary for subordinate officials was three dan, and that for servants was one dan. But if you dare to do those things like kicking and kicking dendrobium, you will have to feel your neck to see if it is hard. "
call……
The scene instantly became quiet, and his eyes were full of surprise, excitement, and envy.
If the first three policies solve their own problems, give them a way to survive, and improve their living environment,
Then this last one will simply change the fate of the entire family and benefit future generations.
Even if he is finally promoted to an official from the ninth rank, he is still an official of the Ming Dynasty. As long as he enters the circle of officials, his future will have unlimited possibilities.
"grown ups……"
"Don't ask too many questions. Register at noon. Considering that many people have strong hands-on skills but not much literacy, tomorrow's noon assessment will be in the form of questions and answers, and some will do some practical things.
All Jin Yiwei who are admitted will be investigated. Those who dare to fish in troubled waters will be punished with thirty canes and will be deprived of all labor qualifications issued by the imperial court.
Okay, let’s all disperse! "
After saying this, Yuan Chonghuan got off the high platform and headed towards the big tent where Chongzhen was in the distance.
It left everyone with surprises and unwillingness and fear at the scene.
What is surprising is that those who have ancestral craftsmanship. If it were a written examination, they would be eliminated directly, but the question and answer format gave them a chance.
Those who were unwilling and fearful were those who were planning to get some surprise study at night. Jinyiwei's investigation directly shattered their thoughts. If they were found out, the gain would outweigh the loss.
"Old Wang, come to my house. I still have a nice bottle of wine. Let's talk!"
"Brother Zhang, we two brothers can exchange ideas and take care of you tomorrow!"
"Daniu, brother, you still have some experience in water transportation. Let's find a place to discuss it!"
…
The common people gradually dispersed while chatting. The scholars usually didn't bother to talk to the craftsmen, but now they were licking their faces while chatting with the common people.
But the whole city was immersed in a sea of cheers, and Shenyang City was filled with endless vitality.
In the big tent on the other side, Yuan Keli hurriedly entered the big tent, his face full of solemnity.
Without waiting for Chongzhen to ask, Yuan Keli whispered: "Your Majesty, I suggest that Huang Taiji be retried!"
