Chapter 181 Liu Bei wants to engage in welfare housing

Zhen Yan, Jian Yong, Han Hao, Yin Da, Ruan Yu.

The five main leaders of the organization finally selected by Liu Bei were implemented, and the "Five Tiger Generals" were in place.

And he himself is naturally the head and leader of the organization, responsible for controlling the major policies of the entire organization.

After the general candidate was confirmed, Liu Bei wrote to Jian Yong to tell him to come to Luoyang as soon as possible, and at the same time called all the 30 core members of the organization he had selected for a meeting the day before he officially took the post of Shang Shu Pu She Zuo Cheng.

At the meeting, he announced the official name of the organization and its five offices, as well as the person in charge of each office.

He named the five departments as the Financial Affairs Department, the Personnel Department, the Secretary Department, the Logistics Department, and the Propaganda Department, and then determined the responsible positions of Zhen Yan, Jian Yong, Han Hao, Yin Da, and Ruan Yu.

In addition to these five people, there were 25 people left, who were evenly distributed among the five divisions by Liu Bei. As their deputy in handling affairs, the shelf of an organization was set up.

These 30 people are people with certain talents who Liu Bei carefully selected from the people he knows. The identity and background are not the most important, but the talent is very important.

Of course, only [-] people are not enough. These [-] people are the first batch of core members, the bones and brains that Liu Bei built this organization.

Although this opportunity is neither formal nor official, it is also an opportunity that no one else can ask for.

So Liu Bei formulated a series of benefits for them in the early stage.

If you join an organization and work for the organization, you can get paid. Although there are not many at the beginning, at least some get paid.

Some powerful figures have made some achievements politically or culturally, but they just never got a real estate in the capital all their lives, and they are very unpopular.

Many famous figures in history lived in rented houses in the capital of their era. Even if they became officials and looked detached from society, they actually rented houses to live in.

The modern literature school has a lot of resources, but they will not release them. The ancient literature school is willing to share some resources, but the resources they have are too few and not enough.

And when Liu Bei expressed his desire to recruit them to join the organization, they all expressed their willingness to join the organization without exception, expressing their willingness to follow Liu Bei in doing things and aiming at Liu Bei's goal.

If you don't join, you have to go home and inherit the wealth of the family to live a boring life, exploiting the surplus value every day or bullying men and women, that kind of life is not what they want!

Moreover, they joined this organization to work for Liu Bei and the ancient literature school, and they did not give wholeheartedly without gaining anything.

It is similar to the current situation of the evil modern real estate, not to mention the remote places, but the capital at the foot of the emperor is definitely the place with the highest housing prices and the most difficult place to settle.

So they can't talk about any future at all. Basically, they come to Taixue to try their luck. If they are not lucky, they go home. They just come to Luoyang to experience the atmosphere of an international city.

They have never been their own people in the eyes of the main political faction of the Luoyang court. They can be counted as outsiders because of their powerful backgrounds, otherwise they are not human beings at all, but means of production.

Most of them came to Luoyang City before and after the Taixue Revival Movement and studied at Taixue. They might be able to learn something, but after learning, there is no platform to apply their knowledge.

These more than 300 people were identified by him as candidate members of the organization. When Liu Bei said that he wanted to establish a Ministry of General Affairs affiliated to the ancient literature school, with him as the head of the organization, these young and marginal scholars who did not have many connections rushed Expressed interest.

Join, must join, why not join?

Those who can get closer to Liu Bei, in Liu Bei's view, are all talented people.

Whether they can speak, or do things, or can read, there are always some shining points, which are enough to be qualified for some official positions, but there are too many people who are qualified for official positions, but there is only one official position.

For example, Bai Juyi, a great poet, court official, and talented, was 15 years old when he went to Chang'an for the first time, and he was already 50 years old when he bought a house in Chang'an City for the first time in his life.

The feeling of being dependent on others is not good, especially for a person with self-respect.

But when an opportunity is presented in front of them, or when the person they most admire and trust introduces this opportunity in person, they don't think much about it.

The appearance of Liu Bei gave them a chance.

Those who can stay in Luoyang City are a minority, and those who can become officials are a minority of the minority, and counterattackers like Liu Bei are the only ones with no other branches.

So even if they have no future, they can still go back to their hometown and continue to be their own tyrants, or they can become local officials and live a boring life of exploiting tenants and servants, that's all.

Just as the upper echelons of the ancient literature school believed, most of the people in the ancient literature school came from powerful and powerful landlords in other places, from all over the world, from the Central Plains, Jingchu, Jiangdong, Sichuan and Shu, and a small number of people from Kansai.

To expect these people to work for a long time and do good things, in addition to spiritual incentives, there must also be real benefits for them, and they should not be treated badly.

There are some poor people among these people, and there are people who live in poverty. They are usually from poor families within the local clan.

The hardships only they themselves know.

In addition, in addition to wages, Liu Bei also designed a welfare system of "welfare housing" for members of the organization.

The poor in the true sense cannot come to Luoyang at all.

In addition, Liu Bei personally visited and convened more than 300 people for individual or group talks in the past few days. These people were close to him before, admired him very much, and recognized his "counterattack concept" very much. people.

Liu Bei sets their wages according to their positions in the organization and the time they have worked in the organization. The higher the position and the longer the working hours, the higher the salary they can get.

At any rate, they still have the identity of "human beings", and they are already standing in the upper class of the Han people with a population of more than 5000 million. Even so, the channels for them to rise are so narrow that they are unbelievably narrow, almost nonexistent.

Liu Bei also promised them, and to a certain extent, painted a big pie, giving them visible expected income.

This is not very meaningful to the children of rich families, but it is of great significance to those scholars who have rich people in their families but their own families are very poor. redemption.

In addition, there is a mechanism for bonuses and fines. There are many detailed rules, which were formulated by Liu Bei in his own home in Zhuo County to manage artisans and tenant farmers. The effect was good, and he used them directly.

So after barely being a student, most of them returned to their hometowns.

This was expected by Liu Bei.

There are also some who are directly rich children.

Therefore, although the monthly salary stipulated by Liu Bei for the members of the organization is not much, for a considerable number of them, it is an important reliance for them to settle down in Luoyang.

Many, many talents have not been discovered in this process, and have disappeared into the long river of history. They are not without talent, but without luck.

Moreover, it was a small house in a not-so-good location. He was very dissatisfied and wrote a poem to complain. That poem has been handed down to let future generations know how unhappy Bai Juyi was with the old and small house he bought.

When he finally bought a spacious and comfortable big house in a good location in Luoyang City, the eastern capital for the first time, he was already 57 years old, and he will live here forever.

Easy to live, easy to live, easy to live in!
The city of Chang'an in Bai Juyi's time was no longer the city of Chang'an in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, and the housing prices were so high, it can be seen that buying a house was a bad thing for the ancients.

Luoyang City in the Eastern Han Dynasty did not deviate from this rule.
