Four days later.

Nanjing.

"This wind cannot last forever!"

Chen Zilong, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, said firmly.

The cabinet ministers nodded one after another.

News of the Guangzhou Incident was delivered to Hong Kong on the same day, because it was still under the control of the northward coastal flow. The three-masted flying scissor sail communication ship sent the Nanyang Navy's report to Xiamen on the third day. Then the relay transmission communication tower was transmitted to Nanjing in less than two days. The report immediately triggered a big discussion in the cabinet. It is obvious that these guys in the cabinet are on the side of the local geniuses on this issue, although they also knew that this was sending Guangdong directly back to the court, and they would definitely use this to add harm to King Gui, but...

That can't support workers either.

This is a butt problem.

"No matter how King Gui governs the people, no matter how the factory owners treat workers in Guangzhou, such acts of workers forming party groups to strike, march, or even disrupting order through chaos must be severely cracked down on them to warn others!"

Yang E, Minister of Justice, said.

"How should workers fight for their rights?"

Yang Qing asked.

"They can negotiate through peaceful means, such as asking the factory owner to negotiate. If the factory owner does not agree to them at worst, the factory owner will definitely not want them to leave. Their wealth must be exchanged for the work of the workers. If the workers do not give them work, they will not be able to obtain wealth. Both parties can negotiate a satisfactory result. Why do we have to use this extreme method? The country has its own laws, and everyone must abide by the law. If all workers are like this, wouldn't the country be in chaos?"

Minister of War Du Yinxi said.

"What if the factory owner just refuses to agree?"

Yang Qing said.

"Then I won't do it. There is not only one factory in Guangzhou. Even if the factories are the same, there are also those plantations that can make a living. If it really doesn't work, you can go to the colony."

Chen Zilong said.

"But what if I can't leave?"

Yang Qing said.

In fact, the Guangdong Consultative Conference prohibits workers from going to sea casually.

It’s not that they are afraid that they will go to the colony. In fact, they also encouraged workers to go to the colony of Hexian. However, the workers are unwilling to go. What the local geniuses are afraid of is that the workers will go to the area controlled by the imperial court.

The local geniuses already knew the preciousness of labor. They were doing silkworms to eat people, one was to expand the planting area of ​​economic crops, and the other was to drive as much labor as possible into their factories. After all, raw materials were not the most lacking. The silk industry was limited. The most important thing was that the market was unlimited. Cotton could be imported from India in large quantities. But workers had no place to import, especially local smart, capable, hardworking and kind workers. Yang Qing's land reform around them had the greatest threat to them was to take away the workers. Therefore, the only one who went to the Hexian Colonial was the Zhenla Company they organized. Without official permission, ordinary people in the Guifan were not allowed to leave the country. Those local militias were like the Confederate slave team to specifically catch refugees. Smuggling at sea was also strictly guarding the death of the fishing industry. Anyway, the fishery was also controlled by those fishermen. Even opposite Hong Kong Island, there were militias patrolling to prevent people from running there.

As for quitting your job...

If there is no colony to go, where can those workers go even if they quit their jobs?

Go back home?

They had to make a living in Guangzhou because their hometown was taken back by the landlords.

Then the only thing left is to go into the mountains and flee.

But if the fugitives are caught by the militia, they will be sold directly as slaves to coal mines and iron ore.

Don’t underestimate the wisdom of the local geniuses. They are always talented in exploitation. The little cleverness of the unruly people is completely in front of the wisdom of the local geniuses. What’s more, quitting a job in Guangzhou is not an easy task. Resigning a job will be compensated for the losses of the factory owners. The factory owner taught the workers to work, giving them a skill, but quitting them after learning it. This is unreasonable, right? What’s more, a worker quitting a job will cause a shortage of people, at least in a short period of time to delay production, and the factory owners will also suffer losses. Therefore, those who quit their jobs will not only not get their wages, but also give the factory owners money to compensate for the losses.

Dare not to give it?

Is the guns of the factory guard team vegetarian?

Floating corpses can be seen every day in the Pearl River. Although they all commit suicide, suicide is not a big deal for Guangzhou, controlled by the local sages.

but……

"Then you can't ignore the law!"

Chen Zilong said.

"If you don't be an Aoan starving mantis, do you still like a mantis?"

Yang Qing said.

"Well!"

Chen Zilong shut up.

"Everyone, admit it honestly! In fact, you are afraid that one day, workers in your factories will follow suit and carry out strikes, marches, or even just rebellion! But please remember that wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. Some people shouted that they would not be an An An starving mantis, but they were like the mantis. As a result, Li Zicheng squeezed them out of their brains. What happened in Guangzhou now is the same. Since those factory owners treat workers as livestock, don't blame the workers for throwing them to death. In the end, there is no hatred for no reason."

Yang Qing said.

"Why did the Duke of Protecting the Country protect the rioters?"

Yang E asked very simply.

Of course they all knew very well that Yang Qing supported the workers this time.

But they didn't want to compromise either.

Because there will be no danger in this kind of political dispute, Yang Qing does not care that others oppose him within the legal scope, and things in Guangzhou cannot be tolerated. If they really are like the workers in Guangzhou, how can they build factories in the future? After all, everyone has factories. If the workers in Guangzhou are not severely punished, the workers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang will also learn to speak in strikes and marchs, then...

That's simply ridiculous!

It is well known that 18 hours of working in a factory in Guangzhou, otherwise how could the cost be low?

But Jiangsu and Zhejiang are not less than twelve hours!

Yang Qing's factory is ten hours, but Yang Qing's factory is all the Huangzhuang system. He is not the same as the people. His factory usually only recruits workers from Huangzhuang. But other emerging capitalists do their best to squeeze their factories. Their factories are basically two shifts, usually every ten days, and one directly takes twenty-four hours during the rotation. Their factories are also supervising workers patrolling with whips. There are also many ways to quit their jobs. The only difference is that their wages will not allow workers to eat sweet potatoes, but they are only maintained at a slightly better level than tenants.

If the heart of the Guangzhou factory owner is black.

Then their hearts are not red!

Capitalists are the same. They cannot expect anyone of them to be a great charitable person. Their principle is to squeeze workers to the greatest extent possible within the scope permitted by conditions.

so……

This is really impossible to compromise.

"There is no question of maintenance. I just talk about the matter, but for now, the most important thing is how to calm this matter as soon as possible."

Yang Qing said.

Those cabinet ministers agree with this.

"First of all, the Gui vassal state has to be withdrawn. The King of Gui's duty is to protect the territory and safeguard the people. Now he is obviously seriously dereliction of duty. He has been expelled from his own vassal city by the people. What qualifications are there to govern the people? The Gui vassal state abolished the vassal state and summoned the King of Gui into the capital. Now the Jianzhou Wei tribes have begun to return to their territory. Liaodong will be vacant and will be given a piece of land to transfer the vassal state in Liaodong. He is his Majesty's cousin and also gives him the same as King of Fu, so he uses Guangning as his vassal city, north of the Daling River, east of Yiwulu Mountain, west of the Liaohe River, and south of the Liaodong side wall. This area is assigned to him as a vassal state."

Yang Qing said.

The cabinet ministers said they were very satisfied with this handling.

In this way, King Gui was led from the prosperous city of Guangzhou by these unscrupulous guys to the distant western Liaoning. Poor Guangning can basically be said to be a living person at present!

He can't resist yet.

In fact, Yang Qing didn't know that at this time, the Guifan guards had already suffered a crushing defeat in the first counterattack of Guangzhou, and there was almost no hope of victory.

After all, there is food in the city.

It's OK to hold on for a year.

There is also an arsenal, where the ammunition and raw materials in the warehouse are no less than those in the Shaoguan Fortress. This is originally the latter's logistics base. The standard for King Gui and Guangdong locals is that Shaoguan can hoard combat materials for no less than one year, while Guangzhou can hoard various raw materials for no less than two years. Now those workers only need to process these raw materials...

They are best at this.

So I can't defeat the King of Gui in Guangzhou, and I really don't have the ability to deal with Yang Qing's injustice.

As long as he is not stupid, he will be obedient.

Then he could be thrown into western Liaoning for clearing the land.

At this time, the Ming army only arrived in Jinzhou, leaving behind the vast land outside the Daling River, and for the slaves of Jianzhou Guard and the Mongolian cavalry of the Korqin tribe, they were responsible for hunting the remaining divine troops for them. It is estimated that they could be cleaned up in half a year. Then the slaves of Jianzhou Guard retreated to the mountains and forests, and then King Gui went north to clear the land, but the Duke of the National Guard was not able to let him go alone...

"The ministers of Gui's vassal were in vain and all followed King Gui to demoted to the vassal!"

He said.

"What should the guard do about it?"

Du Yinxi asked.

"The Guards of Guifan were incorporated into the army, and all the original generals were forced to retire. Let the First Army of the Land War go to Guangzhou first, but do not attack Guangzhou, separate the two sides, and no matter what the situation is done, I will first truce. I will go south to deal with this matter myself."

Yang Qing said.

He had to go there in person.

No matter which other cabinet minister, even his generals, may use tough measures to suppress them. It is the same for these guys to take the blame for the Guangzhou local geniuses, but they will definitely not have any essential differences in their attitude towards workers. In the eyes of these emerging capitalists who are completely different from the same feathers, the Guangzhou workers' move is like a traitor and will not fight this unhealthy trend and evil spirits. Today, the Guangzhou workers can make the Guangzhou capitalists rebellion due to the treatment problem, and tomorrow, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang workers will also take to the streets to make the people rebellion due to the treatment problem.

It is useless to have his orders. Some of these people deliberately intensify the conflicts and then confirm the rebellion of the workers. They will happily suppress and kill the people.

Let all the workers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang be honest!
Chapter completed!
