Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 692 Earthshaking
In fact, Ruan Dacheng still inherited the bad habit of reporting good news but not worrying in the Ming Dynasty. Jiangsu and Zhejiang were the places where the style of writing was the most prosperous in the Ming Dynasty, and slave labor was used to serve as the Japanese kingdom along the coast, and there were many smuggling and trading families in Southeast Asia, just like helping the king of Lu a few days ago The Zhoushan Yuba Dong Shanhai’s family who supervised the country’s resistance and escape, the traditional thinking of these big families was to buy land and build houses. The annexation of land in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was even faster than that in Nanzhili. "History of Peasant Wars at the End of the Year" has even reached nine out of ten.

More than 300 million.

Owner farmers only account for less than [-]% of the barren land. The nine-story population is attached to the family of the family and relies on the land to eat. Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces have a large population, and Nanzhili is also the same. After all, Song Qingshu's constitution did not hurt the core of these big families. The interest, on the contrary, is that the constitution is beneficial to the rights of these aristocratic families, and the backlash is not big, but this time Song Qingshu's "Declaration of Human Rights" has severely slashed the core interests of these aristocratic families, and even their face and dignity.

Who would have thought that they would be on an equal footing with serfs who were treated like domestic animals?

But there are more than 30 troops in Zhejiang. The trial and suppression of Song Qingshu a while ago have fully proved that he is not a vegetarian. The most tragic move, drive people away!

Didn't you stop signing slave labor and killing and plundering these tenants and slaves?it is good!Then I don't hire these tenant slaves, it's okay for the head office!

This is a tactic that hurts both sides. This is the time of spring plowing. Once the season is missed, there will be no harvest for at least half a year.However, the landlord class of the Conservative Party has the confidence to win. After all, refugees are the biggest threat to the feudal dynasty, and the 500 million refugees will become a huge burden for the dynasty.

But this time, they were wrong too much. The Ming Empire with a constitutional monarchy was not a feudal empire, and changing hands of Song Qingshu was like showing them what is called a bourgeoisie.

Think back to the labor shortage every year when spring begins in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, coastal areas and other places!

Britain still needs to use the sheep cannibalism campaign to drive British farmers out of the land and supply them as fresh blood to the factories. The National Bank's Jiaduobao bank lending audit, at the same time, the West India Company also opened up a corner of the market that has been monopolized, and immediately a huge amount of private capital that has long been jealous has poured into the market.

Japan has a population of 2000 million, Southeast Asia is estimated to have 3000 to 6000 million, and India has a population of [-] to [-] million or even [-] million. The merchant ships of the West India Company have gone as far as the west coast of India, almost reaching the limit of Zheng He back then. The Red Sea And East Africa, but now the trade demand brought by it is also terrifying. Indian sarees are only made of silk from the south of the Yangtze River, so they are gorgeous and moving. Arabian blue chieftains are big slave owners. If they don’t wear a Chinese tulle, they are almost nothing. Face, through the British East India Company's efforts to sell it to the West, the farthest goods covered with Song Qingshu's trademark have drifted to Boston, New Jersey, and the thirteen colonies in North America on the other side of the ocean.

Not only silk, but also tea. Indian tea was stolen to Ceylon, India by the East India Company during the Qing Dynasty. Although it cannot be said that tea is only available in China, the main place of production is Jiangnan. Think about Britain, which does not drink afternoon tea in later generations Gentlemen, just know how big this cake is.

What kind of business opportunity is this? What Song Qingshu suffers from now is not that he can't grab the market, but that he lacks productivity. After all, the population was all in the hands of aristocratic families before, and the Jiangnan manor economy with strong personal dependencies is very difficult when the landlord is unwilling to let go. It's hard to pull them out, and Song Qingshu only takes in some lower-class urban residents, as well as refugees and thieves.

But now, I'm not welcome if you let go, grandma doesn't hurt, and uncle loves it!
Three days ago, there were still starvation and death everywhere, but in just three days, the refugees who looked like gunpowder kegs with resentment and anger quickly disappeared in the relatively developed towns of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, as if they had all been taken away by little ghosts. Instead, there are iron and steel factories, daily necessities markets, textile factories, and tea factories, ranging from small candles and matches to large carriages, bathtubs, tiles and cement. Large-scale factoryization is the withdrawal of industrialization.

In order to receive Song Qingshu's order earlier, some even fought over each other. The "big bosses" from Yingtian Songjiang raised wages time and time again and relaxed production time. The conditions offered could make the dead come back to life. .

However, such rapid industrialization will inevitably lead to a large amount of land being abandoned and production reduced. Fortunately, today's Southeast Asia is Song Qingshu's granary, and there is a steady stream of huge cargo ships of the Haidayu model, and Song Qingshu can eat three years of food reserves.

Zhao Dou's family was sadly faced with this choice. The family squatted in the temporary shantytown prepared for the refugees in Changzhou Prefecture, slurping and drinking Thai long rice porridge, and looked at the pieces of food stuffed into their hands in distress. job advertisement.

"Daddy, look at this, Ruan's Porcelain Burning Shop, training is included! Food and shelter are included, five hundred dollars a month, and the literacy rate is doubled!"

Zhao Dou's eldest son, Zhao Hu, suddenly pointed to an advertisement and shouted in surprise, he was considered lucky, he spent a few days with Zhang Dahu's private school, and in this era with an astonishingly high illiteracy rate, he knew a few big characters. There were quite a few vagrant tenants who asked him to identify the advertisements, and the Zhao family actually made a small fortune by giving them thank you gifts.

But after hearing this sentence, the second child, Zhao You, immediately shook his head heavily, picked up a sheet and handed it over.

"What's five hundred dollars! Look at this, it's three thousand!"

He stretched out his hand to snatch the recruitment slip and took a look, but Zhao Hu slapped his silly brother on the forehead speechlessly, and reprimanded him: "It's really a big deal! This is what the commander wants to build!" The blood bank hospital is recruiting a doctor with medical experience, if you go, you will be put to death, and the commander will not chop your head off!"

Hearing his brother's reprimand, Zhao Laoer, who had seen many soldiers beheading lawless gentry with a guillotine a few days ago, seemed to want to lose his own head. of.

After yelling at his younger brother, Boss Zhao came to Old Zhao Dou with the recruitment sheet in his hands.

"Father, what do you think? This is in Fanglin Town, not far from our ancestral grave. It's considered the highest salary and salary. If you give it back to the residence, the grandfather can also settle down and earn two years of money. We can also give it to the old man. The second married a daughter-in-law, do you see?"

"Brother, you marry first!"

When he heard about marrying a daughter-in-law, the second son of Zhao blushed first, and said coyly, who knew that the boss Zhao was so angry after hearing this, he went up and slapped him: "I can read, so I don't have to worry about not finding a girl, but you kid , I drag you to eavesdrop on the private school, but if I don’t go, I’m already in my 20s, and no girl wants to be with you.

"Brother, you, you are older than me, aren't you..."

"To shut up!"

Now the elder brother is the ancestor of the Zhao family. The second son of Zhao shut up obediently and went to the side to help his mother and his sister to add firewood. The simple and honest face of the boss Zhao is staring at Zhao Dou's old face full of dimples again. .

However, Zhao Dou shook his head heavily after taking a sip of the old man's cigarette that he could only smoke during the Chinese New Year.

"Porcelain making? Our family has never had a craftsman. Who knows if we can learn it? Don't make any money, so you'll be spoiled. Besides, your father and I will farm when we are old. If we can, the Zhang family will continue to cultivate our family. A few acres of land will be enough for this lifetime!"

"Dad!"

Boss Zhao almost didn't spit out, and bowed dumbfounded again: "What's so good about the Zhang family? The rent is getting heavier and heavier. It's been ten years, facing the black soil and back to the sky, and our family even gave the second child him a good friend." Zhang Xiaohong didn’t have enough money to buy a piece of red silk for a marriage proposal, and was starving at the end of the year, if he had known that there were so many factories, I…, I would have escaped a long time ago!”

Seeing that Zhao Dou didn't speak, he was smoking a dry cigarette again and again, gritting his teeth, Zhao Hu took another one from the bottom of the recruitment slip and spread it out in front of Zhao Dou.

"Father, if you really want to farm, you really can't let the second child work in this porcelain factory and guard the ancestral grave. My son, I will accompany you to go overseas. The commander-in-chief recruits farmers to plant sugar cane in Borneo. Sign for five years." Contract, if you do a good job, you will get at least 50 taels of silver a year, and the land there is still cheap. We will go to work for five or eight years, and we will also buy a piece of land there. Got it!"

What Zhao Dou said was heartbroken, 50 taels!There is land!Every item hit the heart of this old man who had planted crops all his life, but when he thought of going to sea, to Borneo, which he had never seen before, the old man was still entangled.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the door of the shanty was knocked twice suddenly, and immediately a fat man with a mischievous eyebrow squeezed into his head.

"Old man Zhao, are you at home?"

"Master Zhang, what are you doing here?"

At the first glance, Zhao Hu became angry and stood up holding a piece of wood.

"The commander-in-chief said that everyone is equal. Our Zhao family is no longer your slave! If you come to harass again, be careful, I will call the police!"

It’s really 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. Two days ago, the rich man Zhao threatened Zhao Hu and turned around when he turned around. The face of rich man Zhang is also the same as that of the dyeing workshop, red and white for a while, and then squeezed Put on an extremely ugly smile.

"Don't be like this, old man Zhao, we have cultivated for our family since our great-grandfather! From now on, our two families are equal, and you will continue to farm when you come back, and the land of the Li family of the Lou family will also be leased to you. Let's cut it in half, do you think so?"

As if he saw a dinosaur coming out, the old man Zhao Dou stared wide-eyed, looking in disbelief at the weeping Young Master Zhang...

　lol is too difficult to play. I just entered the game today and said that the enemy army has 30 seconds to reach the battlefield. I thought about going to his house to beat him. I was killed by a telegraph pole on the way...
