Water Margin: I, Wang Lun, will have many children and many blessings in Liangshan.

The wind and snow kept coming.

Which is a good thing.

After all, the wind was strong and there wasn't much snow on the road.

It does not affect the movement of the carriage.

In this day and age, there would be no snow plows, and certainly no salt trucks.

Such a waste.

A pound of salt, even coarse salt, costs more than ten or twenty cents. A few hundred thousand pounds of salt is the minimum. How can you spend so much money to throw it on the road!

After the snow stops, each pavilion, township, and county along the way will organize a short-term corvee, ranging from one to two days.

At least 100,000 people were mobilized to sweep away the accumulated snow on state roads and county borders.

Chai Jin came all the way and found that the snow that had fallen many days ago had piled up on the side of the road, forming a pile of snow as high as half a person.

From this point alone, Chai Jin has noticed a big difference under Liangshan's rule.

No government in Bozhou and other places would impose such corvee service!

Officials don't rush in the snow. Generally speaking, the most time officials go to the countryside is to collect summer and autumn taxes, and there are also some large-scale corvee projects, or related to military expeditions, or major criminal charges. Cases and other important events.

In this kind of weather, there is no tax, the court will not raise troops, let alone collect any corvee.

The roads were buried in snow, and the only people affected were passers-by who had to travel far away. In fact, there were only a few such people, and it was not important to the officials. How could they have the leisure to conscript the common people to clear the snow?

Here in Liangshan, there is not only this heart, but also this power.

Liangshan has always been cautious about corvee recruitment and will not use up all the money at once.

It is mainly used in people's livelihood or quite large projects.

For example, the large-scale development of mines in Ye County in summer and autumn.

Nearly 400,000 corvees were mobilized from the four states of Qing, Lai, Den, and Mi. It took nearly three months of work in batches to complete the project.

The mine caves, pits, roads connecting the mines, the roads from the mines to Ye County, and then the county roads in Ye County are all cemented, and then the main roads to Dengzhou Pier and Yuncheng have to be built.

Hundreds of thousands of people worked hard to build the company, which was carried out in batches. The entire Ye County was given a new look.

At the same time as the road was being built, some livelihood projects were also carried out.

There are a large number of public health facilities, as well as Yizhuang, Ji Ci Yuan, Childcare Bureau, and some bridges needed by the county.

In other counties, these projects are also levied, but they cannot be on such a large scale.

After all, people were away from home for more than ten or twenty days at a time. Not only did they spend a lot of money and food, they also couldn't leave their homes behind.

Liangshan was not an official of the Song Dynasty, and he did not care about the life and death of the people at all.

In the Song Dynasty, corvee not only cost money, but also life.

In some places, the officials are cruel and do not give enough money or food to collect corvees, and they also collect them in winter.

Thousands of people were killed at one time, and the people had no way to complain.

If it weren't for some officials who still had some remaining conscience and reported things on their behalf, and things went too far, such cruel officials would have been nothing in the Southern Song Dynasty.

On the Liangshan side, only local public welfare projects, road construction, bridge building, and road maintenance are required.

And try to recruit them from your own hometown, and it will be done in a few days.

The mines in Xiangye County were a big deal, so they were requisitioned in batches from four states. We also tried our best to ask people to go home within ten days, which is already a long time in Liangshan.

The next step for Yizhou Iron Mine and some related coal mines is estimated to be a large-scale recruitment of millions of people, which will not start again until the weather becomes warm next spring.

After the Yunzhou War, Liangshan experienced a period of stable development for several months, and everything underwent earth-shaking changes.

Even people inside can notice changes, let alone newcomers like Chai Jin.

The condition of the roads is just the tip of the iceberg.

Every ten miles, Chai Jin can find a"pavilion".

After walking for dozens of miles through the snow and approaching Zhangqiu County, I discovered a large"pavilion" near the city.

It is said to be a pavilion, but it is actually a rather large courtyard with dozens or even hundreds of rooms.

The person from the concierge department introduced:"There is one pavilion in ten miles. Each pavilion will be equipped with firewood, coal, grain, fresh meat, canned food, and provide meals and horse feed according to different task levels. Each pavilion will provide livestock according to the urgency of the road. There are more than a dozen to dozens of war horses. In addition, each pavilion will have small officials from various departments here to help nearby villagers manage acres of land, farm cattle, distribute farm tools, receive improved seeds, or fight between neighbors, children go to school, and retire from the army. The placement of veterans and all kinds of matters are covered. There are also major criminal cases, thieves, robbers, scoundrels and other local unrest have to be taken care of... In addition, people from the Duzhi Department come to collect taxes, and people from the Health and Welfare Department People from the Agriculture Department, the Construction Department, and the Fish and Animal Husbandry Department came here to check whether there was any epidemic. There was a lot of business coming and going, so a big pavilion had one pavilion chief and two pavilions to support it. Secretary's pavilion officials, in order to maintain the operation of a pavilion"

"Alas, Mr. Chai has also seen the inns of the government, which are just for welcoming people and sending them off. People say that this pavilion is the inn of Liangshan, but now it seems that it is not that simple!"

"Exactly, senior officials, ours is Zhangqiuting. Because it is located at a strategic location, there are many people in the branches, welfare, and security departments, but there are few people in the farming, fish and animal husbandry departments. After all, there are people in the county. Branched out. The main functions of this pavilion are tax collection, security, and welcoming and delivering services. Sir, should we go to the city to find a guest house or stay at an inn?"

It has been explained in advance that the expenses along the way are all paid by the Liangshan Internal Affairs Department, and the Protocol Department will pay first.

There are many internal departments in Liangshan, and it is impossible for everyone to do everything for free.

They all have minister's money, which can be used within the prescribed range and written off with a voucher. That's it.

Before Chai Jin took office, he spent his own department's money first, and it was the best first-class treatment. It was a bit embarrassing to think about it.

The guest house was more expensive than the inn. Chai Jin said without hesitation:"Just stay here Zhangqiu Ting is ready, just in time to see how the inn in Liangshan is, and gain some insights."

Chai Jin travels all over the country and has stayed in the best guest houses and inns, as well as government inns. He has a lot of experience, so he just said it casually.

But after coming in, the feeling is quite different.

There are people who specialize in unloading horses, washing and feeding, Orderly and skillful, that's all.

Then he asked about his rank, destination, and checked the certificate.

Even if he knew that Chai Jin was a future promotion and a distinguished guest of the head of the family, he was still meticulous. This is completely different from the official inn.

The official If a high-ranking official or a relative of a high-ranking official comes to the inn, the post officials will just flatter him, and there will be no serious inspection.

Chai Jin has the highest rank and has arranged the best accommodation.

However, eating is still in the inn hall.

As soon as we entered the door, there were already many people in the room.

They were busy coming and going.

Many people were in a hurry. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Fortunately, there is a canteen here in the inn. There is a fire on the side of the hall, and the fire is kept warm. When someone comes, they can check the cards and then take the food directly.....

"This method is very good and does not require waiting time."

Chai Jin didn't know that this was Wang Lun's inspiration from the service area of ​​later generations. He just thought it was convenient and fast, and couldn't help but admire it.

A green-robed official hurried over. His identity card was"Dou Shi", and his mission level The correct card was"C". After handing over the card, Zhang Qiuting's personnel checked it and said with a smile:"Brother, can you get a bowl of meat noodles, or a cage of big meat buns with egg soup, which one do you choose?""

"Let me eat noodles, hot soup and noodles, drink to dispel the cold!"

"Okay, I'll install it for you. Chai

Jin looked a little dazed.

He thought it was very interesting.

The concierge staff on the side smiled and said:"Doushi is plain noodles and steamed buns with side dishes, and soup is included." In fact, with the salary of one dou per day, you can definitely add meat and vegetables by yourself, but there is a C-size task card that can add meat and vegetables, so you don't have to pay for it. If you don't have a mission, you can't come to the pavilion to eat. You can just spend your own money to buy food at the restaurant nearby."

Chai Jin shook his head and smiled.

There was another feeling in his heart.

Liangshan's rules and regulations are really shrewd and meticulous to a certain extent!

They are extremely strict in managing not only the people within the territory, but also the army and their own officials.

And it’s strict under the system!

It’s not that the style of any official is like this, but that the rules are like this. Either you can adapt to these rules to be an official, or you are not worthy of being an official.

This is essentially different from the"three redundancies" of the Song Dynasty!

Chai Jin is indeed a descendant of the royal family, and his true nature can be seen at a glance.

Liangshan’s office expenses also have minister’s money, but the rules are very strict. You can’t use it casually if you want.

If there is waste or corruption, it is the Duzhi Division and the Military Justice Division. Waiting.

Even these small officials have to fight for food, that is, less than thirteen kilograms of millet or wheat a day, and the polished rice or flour produced is more than seven or eight kilograms. When converted into money, it is more than a hundred yuan.

A fledgling The daily salary for young petty officials is more than 200 yuan, which is quite a lot.

Ordinary people, who work hard for 2.4 days, can earn about 60 to 100 yuan a day, depending on how long they work and how strong they are.

No. Technical work, which is pure coolie, has this level of income.

Not only are there records from the government, Su Dongpo also recorded the daily income of ordinary people when he was in Huangzhou, ranging from thirty or forty to around a hundred dollars.

If it is carpentry and other technical projects, the income It’s higher, but it’s still hard to pay two hundred yuan.

For a small official, this income level is generous enough.

Of course, it’s impossible to give more money and food besides official duties. The three redundancies in the Song Dynasty were caused by excessive leniency. Liangshan cannot repeat the same mistake

"Officials eat four meat and four vegetarian dishes, with no restrictions on staple food or drinks."

Eight dishes for two people, first-class treatment is really good."[]

Chai Jin didn't care. He was also generous in Chaijiazhuang, but he was quite emotional.

I wonder if Wang Lun is generous or stingy?

There is no need to mention it at this time. There are several stoves made of white iron in the hall. There are chimneys that vent smoke to the outside. Heat waves are emitted from inside. The temperature difference between the inside and outside is more than 20 degrees. As soon as you enter, you feel as warm as spring. What Chai Jin noticed was that the stove was not burning firewood, but black coal cakes..
