Chapter 525 Xiao He’s plan

Xiao He looked at the encouraging gaze and gritted his teeth and said, "The General can escort these prisoners to Xianyang in half a month!

As long as His Majesty is happy, with your connections in the court, you will probably delay a lot of time.

And you will be in charge of the court yourself, so as not to be impeached by some people with ulterior motives in taking advantage of the situation and bring jealous impeachment when you are away!"

After saying that, he looked at Junyi's face carefully and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

This idea can indeed delay a lot of time and avoid a lot of trouble, but the disadvantages are also very big.

Qin Xuan nodded slightly, and a look of contemplation appeared on his face.

Xiao He's idea is also a solution.

In the court, you can defend yourself in some things and avoid being jealous.

As long as the old man is misled and angry if he is not convinced and delayed for another month, he is sure to delay it!

Qin has made up his mind to develop his elite armament that has always belonged to him no matter what.

The profits of being able to monopolize the salt business of Daqin for one more month are unimaginable!

Even if the old man chases and beats him with a wooden sword like a rabbit in the future, he will admit it!

When Xiao He saw Junyi's face showing a look of approval, he opened his mouth, looking like he wanted to speak but stopped.

Seeing this, Qin Xuan smiled calmly and said, "If you have something to say, it's okay to say it wrong."

Xiao He looked nervous and reminded carefully: "However, if you take the prisoner away by you, it may affect the progress of the shipbuilding."

After all, there is no automation now, let alone cranes or something.

Currently, 10,000 prisoners are cutting down trees on the mountain for shipbuilding.

There were only three thousand people who cut down trees.

The remaining seven thousand people were all used for transportation.

Especially when cutting down a big tree that three or four people hugged, it takes at least ten people to lift it down from the mountain.

The road to the mountain is difficult to walk, and people need to be replaced by others, which consumes a lot of manpower.

Wait until it is carried to the mountain and loaded, and then transported to the dock.

For this reason, it is not enough to use all the chariots and horses in the official office.

Zhuang Qi had to send a notice to rent hundreds of cars and horses.

This is another considerable expense.

If Qin Xuan uses Xianyang's industry to operate, it would be easy.

However, the pressure of renting the county town is not ordinary.

Therefore, Qin Xuan couldn't wait to find a way to make money on Qin Rule.

Once salt is put on the market, financial problems can be solved immediately.

However, what Xiao He said was not unreasonable.

If he took away 40,000 prisoners, who would do these tasks?

These are all free labor!

After weighing the pros and cons, Qin Xuan chose to focus on building his own private armament first.

Money is a man’s courage, he has no strength in his hands, and he is also unsure in his heart!

If you don’t have enough power to protect yourself, what’s the difference between it and a three-year-old boy who is swaying with gold?

Although the chance of such a thing happening as oneself is almost zero.

However, since it is the way to retreat for the cunning rabbit to the three holes, stability is naturally the priority.

Infrastructure can be slow down, and you must have troops first!

And if you have money, you can also spend money to hire people to work, right?

In today's docks and docks, aren't there ordinary people who work in farm work and earn money?

Qin Xuan rubbed his fingers against his chin, nodded slightly and said, "Just follow your ideas!"

When the others heard Xiao He's advice, they looked thoughtful on their faces.

Many officials from the county town muttered in their hearts: "It seems that this upstart in Xianyang is not the rumored arbitrary and tyrannical one."

Xiao He thought about it and suggested carefully: "If you need labor in civilians in urgent need of labor, you can recruit people from the surrounding counties and cities.

Just send someone to post a recruitment announcement stamped with the official office in a few surrounding counties.

It’s winter coming soon, and there’s no work to do in the farmland, so many people are bound to be willing to come and work!

My subordinates have calculated that as long as you delay for more than a month, it will be a drop in the bucket for the profit of selling salt."

Xiao He took a breath and agreed with the expression above.

He continued: "And as long as we treat these recruited people well, settle their homes, and give them land, we will appropriately reduce taxes in the early stage.

I believe that many people are willing to stay in Jiaodong County.”

As the words fell, many people showed a look of approval on their faces.

This move is so cruel!

It’s not enough to spend money to hire someone else’s son to work, so I might as well keep him and be my son!

In this way, not only will the problem of insufficient labor be solved, but the population of Jiaodong County will also increase greatly.

With more people, there are naturally more people who farm.

Food production will naturally increase accordingly.

What Jiaodong County needs to pay is just some money.

As long as you can persist in the salt business for a few more days, these money will not be a problem!

only

Zhuang Qi pondered for a moment, and his brows couldn't help but frown.

He asked: "The solution is very good. The government issued a document to recruit people, but are other counties willing to release people?"

As soon as the question came out, everyone suddenly realized.

I just thought this method was very good before.

The money you can earn by monopolizing the salt business of Daqin is definitely an extremely huge amount.

You only need to withdraw a small part of it to solve the wage problem of these people.

The premise is that the county where these people are located must be willing to release people!

Moreover, this kind of openly attracting people in other counties is unheard of!

After all, one of the measures of a city's prosperity is population.

Only with a population can there be labor and only with an official office can there be taxes.

Which local chief would like to see his own rule be quiet, just two or three kittens?

As a county magistrate, Zhuang Qi has the deepest understanding.

If it were ten years ago, not to mention recruiting the surrounding areas, it would be fine even for the whole world.

After the Zheng State Canal of the Great Qin Dynasty was built, a large amount of fertile fields were irrigated.

Qin publicly allowed the people of other six countries to move to Qin, and the tax was exempted from three years of taxes when sending fields and cattle!

Suddenly, a large number of people from the six countries flocked to Qin, filling the Qin Dynasty's granary.

It also laid the foundation for the Qin Dynasty to unify the world.

At that time, the seven kingdoms were in an opposition war.

If you rob someone, you will rob him and you will have no place to make any sense.

But now it's different.

The whole world belongs to the Qin Dynasty. If Jiaodong County robs the people of other counties, the lawsuit will probably be fought to the emperor!

There is a place to reason.

Zhuang Qi touched his beard and asked, "There is another question. Even if the people are willing to come over, how can Lord Xiao let the county magistrates and magistrates of other counties release people?"

Xiao He raised his lips and showed a strong sense of confidence on his face.

Then he blew his mouth and his meaningful eyes turned to the handsome face beside him.

Qin Xuan blinked, pointed at his nose, and asked in confusion: "Let me go lobbying?"
Chapter completed!
