A few days later, Chai Jin and others were not far from Ye County.
They were not in a hurry in the next few days, but walked around Qingzhou City and several nearby counties.
I also visited a lot of rural areas.
Chai Jin was also quite shocked when he saw that the people's families were wealthy, with every family having at least ten or eight stones of food left over.
He is not a young man or a high-ranking nobleman who is inexperienced in world affairs.
The Chai family said they were the royal family of the previous dynasty, but they were just wearing a banner and pretending to be a tiger's skin. Several direct descendants died in an unknown manner. Don't think that the old Zhao family didn't commit murders.
By the time of Huizong, the Chai family was only a shell of the former royal family, with no connections or power at all.
Otherwise, a scattered prefect could destroy the Chai family?
Chai Jin's Green Willow Village has tens of thousands of acres of land in every state capital.
Later, Kuotianfa took away more than 30% of the land and several thousand acres more.
The Chai family is kind-hearted and has always divided the property 50-50 with the tenants.
Some landowners are divided into six and four, the landlord is six and the tenant farmer is four.
The excessive one is seventy-three points.
In addition to paying land rent, they also have to work as servants for the landowner, often for free.
In addition, although there was no land tax, the court miscellaneous taxes could not spare them, so they had to pay a lot of money.
Corvenes were also levied.
It can be said that a large number of people are living in dire straits.
Under the wind and snow along the way, countless people were hungry and struggling in the cold.
Every winter, many ordinary people die silently like grasshoppers.
Under the rule of Liangshan, almost every household had such a heating stove. Those who had cash were given cash, and those who had no money were given discounts from next year's harvest.
Many people's houses, farm tools, and seeds were exchanged in this way.
Liangshan also received a lot, with more than 64 cents, and borrowed even more with 73 cents.
But there is not a penny of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes in Liangshan. The farmland under the rule has good water conservancy and sufficient fertility. Every household has a good harvest. The average acre of land outside is one and a half to two stones, which is considered a good harvest.
In the land of Liangshan, three stones is considered common, three and a half stones is okay, and four stones is also very common.
Last year, the maximum yield per mu was five and a half stone, which was really shocking!
You know, in the Jiangnan area with the highest yield per mu, the land is good, and the river mud is fertilized. It is carefully cultivated, and there is no shortage of water. The yield of five or six shi per mu is very impressive.
Here in Liangshan, the average is more than three shi, and with the large number of acres of land, even if you hand over 60% and still have 70% of the grain, a family will have at least a dozen shi of grain left.
After they pay off their debts, they will have at least 20 to 30 dan and several thousand kilograms of grain a year.
Even if there are five or six people, they will definitely eat it all if they eat freely.
Liangshan has always collected grain at market prices, and the Trade Department specifically levied grain prices based on foreign prices, so that the people under Liangshan's rule would not suffer.
Sell some grain in exchange for clothes, furniture, medicinal materials and other necessities, and the quality of life will naturally improve a lot.
In the original land of seven states, more and more people raise chickens, pigs, cattle, and sheep.
There are even many families who raise horses. Such precious things caused great harm to ordinary people during Wang Anshi's political reform. Many families were ruined because of this.
The entire Liangshan territory is filled with an unspeakable temperament.
Chai Jin thought for a few days before suddenly realizing it.
This thing is called hope.
Everyone has hope for the future.
Both the citizens in the city and the people in the market towns and villages are full of hope for the future.
They also dare to spend money, unlike people elsewhere. Even if there is a good harvest occasionally and a few stones of food are left at home, they still have to store it to prevent diseases and disasters from hitting them.
Be cautious and cautious.
It's like walking on thin ice.
Under the rule of Liangshan, not only were the people prosperous, the local public security was good, and transportation was developed, but also medical care and education, the things that the people were most concerned about and most concerned about, were also good.
In a large environment, people are easy to influence each other, and the entire group is easy to develop a group mentality that is high-spirited. This was the case under Liangshan.
……
After traveling for several days, in order not to delay their trip, Chai Jin and others continued on their way.
Qingzhou is more than five hundred miles away from Ye County, and it takes more than three days to drive all the way.
This was still a situation where the roads were in good condition and the carriages were powerful.
For ordinary people and businessmen, it would take at least seven or eight days, or even more than ten days.
Five to six hundred miles was considered a long distance for people at that time.
Here in Liangshan, it only takes three or four days.
Moreover, the carriage and horses are comfortable and there is no feeling of bumps.
The carriage is as warm as spring. Looking out through the glass window, you can see the white snow, village houses, urchins, and people returning home at dusk, which gives people a sense of enjoyment of traveling.
In this era, it is estimated that Liangshan is the only place.
As we approach Ye County, there are more and more cars and horses on the road.
It had been sunny for many days in a row, so nearby counties collected an extra day of corvee service and mobilized thousands of people to clean up the remaining snow on state and county roads.
Not only did Chai enter the two carriages with several people, but the number of public carriages also increased.
During this period of time a year ago, businessmen were much busier than farmers when they had to do accounts, collect debts, and make the last purchase.
It is estimated that 90% of the public carriages are pulling businessmen from all over the country.
In addition, there are also more ordinary carriages.
Some are integrated into the carriage and have no glass installed, while others are of ordinary shape and have not been polished or painted, making them look much more ordinary.
The person from the concierge department looked out the window and said with a smile:"These carriages are ordinary civilian versions. The construction department sells them to the entire twelve states. The lowest version does not even have windows. The price is 200 pieces. The three carriages with glass windows are One hundred strings, the highest silver-plated version is five hundred strings.~"(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Even though Chai Jin is a rich man, he is a little stunned at this time.
A car costs several hundred guan...
But then I thought about it, the glass was silver-plated, polished and painted, and the body was more refined and luxurious, so five hundred guan was not too expensive.
Chai Jin has no family or relatives.
Otherwise, I would buy one for my family.
Although the Chai family is in a state of decline, the gold and silver that Chai Jin carries with him is worth more than 200,000 yuan, which is much better than ordinary people.
A few hundred bucks for a carriage is nothing.
"In our land of seven states, there are not many rich people now. The person from the concierge department smiled implicitly and continued:"Although there are many gentry landowners who have done many evil things and have their fields and property confiscated, there are not many of them." We in Liangshan are not killing people indiscriminately. Many of them have not done any evil. We have redeemed farmland at a price. These people have gained a lot of money. They all moved to the city first, and many of them moved to live outside Liangshan. Yes, we will not stop him from leaving. After the Yuncheng War, many people moved back, and it was hard to leave their homeland. These people have money but no land, and they are not allowed to buy land, so most of them invest in industry and commerce. Under our rule in Liangshan, we dare not say anything else. In terms of industry and commerce, we are really the number one in the Song Dynasty.……"
Chai Jin nodded repeatedly to express his understanding!
The Liangshan Trading Department and the Construction Department have long allowed private investors to invest in their shares, or to set up their own workshops to undertake projects assigned by the Construction Department.
There are many related industries. As long as you are willing and find ways to hire craftsmen from other states, you can make a fortune in just a day.
No wonder Chai Jin came along the way and saw that the prefectures and counties he saw were extremely prosperous.
Everyone seems to be rich.
It's not surprising[]
An ordinary craftsman, because the place is developed and craftsmen are scarce, can earn two to three hundred dollars a day in the construction department, and it is more stable in comparison. There are also many tangible and intangible benefits, such as room allocation, distribution of items, and giving Bonuses and more.
The craftsmen and masters outside can earn three to four hundred or even five or six hundred yuan a day, nearly two guan of money a month, and more than 20 guan a year.
This was unthinkable before.
An ordinary worker only earns 1,560 yuan a day, which is between two and three times higher than the income of around 50,600 yuan a day outside Liangshan.
In other prefectures and counties in the Song Dynasty, sixty yuan a day was enough to buy staple food, and you could also eat some meat every few days.
But to accumulate family property, it requires the efforts of several generations.
A few tile-roofed houses cost tens or hundreds of dollars, and it takes several generations of a family to save money.
Then there are dozens of robes, furniture, and other household property.
If someone in the family is sick or something, it is not impossible to go bankrupt overnight.
Only by digging out coins one by one from between the teeth and being as frugal as possible can one afford to spend a lot of money in ten years.
It's completely different here in Liangshan.
If you are more frugal, you can buy a house in the city in two or three years.
One year is enough to renovate an old house.
In five years, the necessary necessities such as houses, courtyards, furniture, and clothes were ready.
If you can invest in a small workshop or individual stocks, you can easily make dozens or hundreds of coins a year.
Not only do these small businessmen and workshop owners exist, but they continue to grow.
All states and counties are becoming more and more prosperous.
Among the newly added five states, there are also many people who have traveled to the old seven states. As long as they have been here, they will be eager to join them immediately (money or not).
"In the words of our boss, this is the prosperity of one industry and the prosperity of all industries, including fields, mining, construction, transportation, public security, health and welfare. These are all connected. As long as we set up the stage, we will not worry about the lack of people to sing.. Seven states, twelve states, and eight hundred military states are actually the same. When the imperial court governs the world, the most important thing is not to do what is there but not to do it, but to lay the framework and establish the rules. The rest is daily maintenance. As a result, the court's frame was not set up properly, so it had to desperately collect money to maintain and repair it. The people responsible for maintenance and repair did not manage it well, which further caused the frame to become skewed... In this way, one point would collapse as soon as possible!"
When it comes to the boss, the officials of the Protocol Department are full of respect.
Although they are not as rich as those businessmen, workshop owners, and master craftsmen.
But they all have job subsidies, even if they are just joining the"Doushi" Officials" are not much worse than craftsmen in terms of income.
Being promoted to a first-class official is equivalent to a small businessman.
Coupled with hidden benefits and social status... few officials are jealous of businessmen making money, and at most they are slightly envious.
Those who resign to become businessmen or workshop owners are almost useless.
The boss treats them well enough
"Your boss is truly outstanding. Chai
Jin also sincerely praised him, then looked out the window and asked,"Why are there so many carriages and horses heading to Yexian County in this weather and time?"".
