"The people of Wuhan are better than other places."

"They are all people's husbands, why are they different?"

Shangguan Tingzhi and Li Yuanxiang were a little puzzled, when they came from Yangzhou, they had also seen the people in Jiangdu, and they didn't dare to say that everyone was "stealing and playing tricks", but the ability to "fish in troubled waters" was really not bad for the old fritters in the office.

The two of them walked along the embankment, and the usual brocade robes could not be worn in this scene. Not to mention them, even Zhang De went to the construction site to investigate, all of them were short-sleeved, long-pants, leather boots, and at most a bamboo cane.

It is not without bureaucrats in wide robes and big sleeves who go to the construction site to pretend to be forced, but most of them are "airborne", and they have always looked down on people through their nostrils and looked down on the "common people" in Wuhan.

However, contempt is a two-way street, they are all "status" people, in Wuhan, I am afraid that you are a bird.

Tick –

The hurried whistle sounded, the overseer rode a donkey and kept picking errands, and the construction site of the dry area where various flags and ropes were separated began to change shifts one after another. In addition to men, women are not in the minority. Men can be used as animals, but women can't be used as men, not because of "gentlemanly demeanor", but because of efficiency.

The specially divided women's bag area is mostly the widows, Qiang girls, fangnus, and Buyeo women in the workshop...... Wuhan does not encourage the accumulation of slaves, of course, the Wuhan government and business groups encourage the accumulation of slaves overseas, the butt determines the head, and the economic gain determines the production structure.

The reason why these female slave workers went to work was because they worked as "people's husbands" who had been conscripted, and the "slave period" could be reduced proportionally according to the amount of labor.

Yes, the "slaves" in Wuhan are time-sensitive, and they are completely different from those "slaves" in the family.

This also has nothing to do with the conscience of Wuhan Shangjia Group, and it is quite unreliable for businessmen to talk about conscience and social responsibility. Just because of the consideration of "population increase" and "labor enthusiasm", and again, "slaves" are assets, and they are personal property, and how many businessmen will not be able to maintain private property well?

But as long as it is property, except for precious metals, it is "depreciated" without exception, unless special packaging is added to this property, such as humanism, historical feelings, or something. So it is not difficult to see that a "slave" as property, the golden use period, that is, ten or twenty years, the female "slave", in the Zhenguan Dynasty is also ten years.

So this is an account, once a certain "shelf life" is exceeded, it is not very cost-effective to continue to "maintain" the property.

And in Wuhan, the offspring of "slaves" are not "slaves" to their masters, that is, there is no need to think about long-term returns. The businessmen are not qualified to fight for this "right", although they want to, and they have played with Lao Zhang several times.

Zhang De's reaction was very rude, and he directly wiped out more than a dozen giants who thought they were "full-fledged", and the whole clan checked them up and gave them to Li Daoxing.

At this point, the businessmen in Wuhan thought that they had touched the bottom line of the observation envoy, of course, the price was a bit big.

After the basis of "slave storage" does not exist, businessmen will naturally choose to maximize profits, and "slaves" still have to be used, but after the ten-year use period is up, they quickly pat their butts and leave.

If this "slave" wants to continue to work in the workshop after changing from property to "person", the situation will change drastically.

First of all, all the food and housing that were originally to be provided as private property had to be paid. Secondly, it is also labor in exchange for fruits, but when it is property, the "slave" has no personal freedom and no economic burden, and the "man" has personal freedom but has an economic burden.

Most people who are "out of the country" often "lose their nationality" at the moment of "leaving their country" are "losers" and have to borrow money to get by. And the object of borrowing is often the former "master".

So what made Lao Zhang have to sigh was that after ten years of "slavery", those who are really willing to "get rid of their nationality" and those who are willing to continue to be "slaves" are almost equal to each other.

On the construction site of the entire women's contract area, almost all the women who come to work are people with some ideas, which can be said to be quite commendable.

"Uncle Shi, when I talked to me about whether the people are suitable for use, I think that the people in Wuhan are really better than those in Huaiyang. Why is that? ”

Shangguan Tingzhi and Li Yuanxiang caught up with Zhang De, who was inspecting the construction site, and looked at Zhang De curiously with a little panting.

"Oh? What do you two think is the difference between the people in Wuhan and the people in Huaiyang? ”

Looking at the two of them quite interestingly, Lao Zhang was a little surprised, he didn't expect the two offspring to have this kind of observation, which is quite good.

"One person's work in one day, Wuhan people are worth three Huaiyang people."

"The people of Wuhan only care about work, if the people of Huaiyang are tired, they have to hide secretly, and if they are overseers, they have to cooperate to disobey orders. In short, the same supervision, the construction site in Wuhan is much easier. ”

Lao Zhang listened to the words of the two of them, nodded again and again, held a bamboo cane in both hands, and looked at the vast figures on the construction site: "What you said is right, but it's all appearances." The old man said that there is a 'secret that is not passed on' that the outside world does not know, this is a Wuhan mastery, if you are an official in the future, you can consider using it. ”

When the two of them heard this, they actually wanted to "pass on the gong", and immediately held their breath and condensed, just waiting for Lao Zhang to give them an "empowerment", you learn flying knives and I will learn swords......

"At the end of the day, it's just one."

Lao Zhang held up a finger, "Most of the people in Huaiyang are farmers. The people of Wuhan...... Where are the people? Are they also counted as citizens? ”

“……”

The two were stunned, and Shangguan Tingzhi blinked his eyes: It's gone? That's gone? What about the good mastery?

But Li Yuanxiang, who was next to Shangguan Tingzhi, was thoughtful, in the end, he was born in the emperor's family, and his grade was worse, but he was also a "superior person", and he was also "influenced by the emperor" when he was a child, and he was still so much higher than Shangguan Tingzhi.

Suddenly, the "Joy Seeker" was full of emotions, he knew that "those who have constant birth have perseverance", but he never thought that "there can be perseverance without constant birth".

I vaguely felt a little feeling, but I couldn't see through such a little feeling.

His Royal Highness King Jiang made up his mind, and when he found an opportunity, he went to "study" with Zhang De seriously, if he could be "solved", even if he would be an idle prince in the future, he would not be forced to live a hard life.

"What? Don't understand what the old man said? ”

Lao Zhang laughed and patted the shoulders of the two juniors, "Sooner or later, I will understand, don't be in a hurry." ”

"Yes."

The two of them honestly carried out a salute, and then looked at the construction site of the shift change, those people who got off work, all went to the designated area to eat, but there was no chaos, although they also went separately, but when they arrived at the ground, they immediately lined up in an orderly manner.

Not long after, the construction site will waft up the smell of rice, and most of the "forced labor" construction sites with their own dry food are different, Wuhan's construction site has a great selling point, that is, there is never a shortage of meat, every "six" there will be a sweet braised pork, the fat is very large, the oil is shiny, Li Yuanxiang and his ilk must feel tired of looking at it, but for the "people", this is simply a tailor-made top delicacy.

"After all, there are still too many people."

Lao Zhang sighed with emotion, when he only had three or five hundred thousand people on hand, how could he dare to play so big, but with more than one million people on hand, he could play as much as he wanted.

Not far away, at an exit of "Hanyue Chi Road", you can already see a "market", "market" does not have a city wall fence, but the temporary sheds connected together naturally become a "walled wall". The scale of the entire "market" is larger than that of any "market" in Wuhan itself, and it is not a "town" in the ordinary sense.

From the very beginning, Lao Zhang built it according to a county, but he didn't have it at hand, so he could only build a county first, pointing to it and saying that it was a "city".

The old brothers from other places took a look at this territory, and said that "the women's clothing boss took it out and it was big", if this is a "city", Lao Tzu will learn to protect the capital of Anbei and run naked!

"This has to be named, or it's better to be called Xianning."

It's hard to think of a name, Lao Zhang sighed silently in his heart.
