Chapter 309 mentions maternity subsidies

Wang Changfeng found Mrs. Feng, he was Mrs. Feng's next-door cousin and uncle's.

"You gave the Wang family's grape seedlings and wine-making recipes to Changping Township?" Wang Changfeng said bluntly.

Mrs. Feng glanced at him: "Wine has always been the property of my uncle's house. How can we get it? No one gave us any grape seeds or grape seedlings."

"You said you wanted vine shoots or grapeseeds, and you'll find ways to get them."

"That's right, it wasn't just the Wang family who planted grapes and made wine in the Daxiang Dynasty. The Changping Township Lord could buy watermelon seeds, grape seeds and jibei in Yuanfeng County. At that time, many people on the street gathered around to look at it. "Madam Feng was blunt.

"She only bought grape seeds the year before last, so she can grow such good grapes this year?" Wang Changfeng didn't believe it.

"It's not uncommon for grapes to bear fruit after three years. Changping Township can grow high-yielding rice and wheat seeds, watermelons well, and grapes naturally."

"How could the first result be so good? You must have dug up the mature seedlings."

Mrs. Feng sneered: "Are the Wang family's grapes so good?"

Wang Changfeng choked for a moment, and said bitterly: "You are from the Wang family, why are you helping outsiders to speak?"

"I am now the daughter-in-law of the Feng family, the wife of Saburo Feng." Mrs. Feng corrected.

"Then you are also from the Wang family, and you should protect the interests of the Wang family."

"Did Changping Township harm the interests of the Wang family?"

"The high price of their grapes has seriously affected the business of the Wang family's grapes and caused heavy losses to the Wang family." Wang Changfeng was angry.

"Business has always been based on one's own ability. The Wang family has been doing big business for so many years, and they still don't allow others to do business?"

"But they affected the Wang family's grape sales and damaged the Wang family's interests!" Wang Changfeng roared.

Mrs. Feng kept silent and looked at him coldly.

Wang Changfeng calmed down and said, "If Changping Township continues to sell like this, what will happen to the Wang family's grapes and wine?"

Mrs. Feng sneered: "They sell three guan for one catty, but the Wang family sells two guan for five per catty. Many people will come to buy it. The money they make is no less than before."

Wang Changfeng was unconvinced: "That is also overwhelmed by Changping Township. The grapes and wine of the Wang family have always been ranked first."

"The Holy Majesty has always wanted to suppress the family and make Changping Township stand out. Wouldn't it be good for the Wang family to be second and reduce their sense of existence?"

Wang Changfeng was silent.

Mrs. Feng sighed: "Brother, think about the year before last?"

Wang Changfeng was silent.

"Brother, look at the Changping Township Lord. She is only a teenager, and she knows how to sell corn at the price of grain, and provides sweet potato vines for free to promote sweet potatoes. Why doesn't she hoard them and sell them at a high price?"

"But she sold the watermelon for thirty cents each, and the wine for one hundred cents!"

Mrs. Feng smiled: "Scarcity is the most precious thing. She is a fool if she doesn't sell high prices. Those who buy melons don't feel noble if they don't sell high prices. Besides, are watermelons and food the same thing? If the common people have enough to eat, she sells it at a low price, and if it is given to the court, it is 100 million catties or 300 million catties, but watermelon and wine are extravagant consumption.

Wang Changfeng snorted: "Don't forget that you are also a powerful person."

Mrs. Feng nodded: "Yes, thirty pennies is a drop in the bucket for the powerful. But she didn't say that she wanted to keep doing that unique business, and she sold a lot of planting manuals."

Wang Changfeng opened his mouth and closed it again.

If you sell it at a high price for one year, it will be acceptable to others, but if you sell it at a high price for two or three years, how many people will be jealous?

Feng Fu added a cup of tea for him, and said: "Go home and tell your uncle that Changping Township is in the limelight recently, and the Wang family happens to be low-key and dormant. Remember to manage everyone in the family, especially the servants. Slander that Changping Township."

Wang Changfeng didn't take it seriously: "Many people are envious of Changping Township and complained a few words. Who knows who said it?"

Mrs. Feng shook her head: "It doesn't matter who said it, the saint thinks who said it is the most important thing. No matter what, let's put it away first."

Wang Changfeng came aggressively and walked away with a serious face.

There are indeed many people who are jealous of Changlong Winery, but it is obviously the shop of the future prince Liangdi, if they do anything to the shop, they are going against the royal family, they are not so courageous.

Looking at the rainstorm outside the window, Chen Fan frowned.Zhang Ci took the students to inspect various places.

"It's been raining for three days, will it be all right?"

"Changping Township will be fine, I don't know about other places." Chen Yue sorted out the information: "There were not many children born in the year before last, and they were all born before the award. Last year, only five children were born. There are many pregnant women now. , every month, and soon many names will be added to the newborn account book."

"Do these pregnant women work? If they give birth, can they still go to work?" Chen Ying thought of this.This year, various workshops have recruited a large number of female workers.

"Definitely not during the confinement period, and probably not during the breastfeeding period. If there is no one at home to help take care of the children, they will have to take care of the children at home, and they will not be able to within one or two years." Chen Yue analyzed.

"Then it will delay earning wages, will the family members be unhappy?" Chen Ying worried.

"What's so upset about this? Isn't the child theirs? It wasn't said that women have to go out to work to earn money." Chen Ya didn't understand.

"In the past, everyone didn't care if they couldn't make money. Now that they are earning ten pennies a day, they suddenly stop and have no money. There must be a psychological gap, and they will be unhappy." Chen Ying said.

"Then don't ask women to have children." Chen Ya was angry, "You can't ask people to have children and take care of children, but also have people go out to work, right?"

Chen Fan quietly listened to the serious discussion of the childbearing issues by the little girls, and sighed.

It may be necessary to hire several female officers to be in charge of marriage and childbirth registration, and to publicize childbirth knowledge.

Should the land and taxes also be managed by someone else?
Formally inviting people to do things is equivalent to setting up a small yamen. Will it arouse suspicion?
There is also the question of salary, do you really have to pay for the team?
Lizheng's salary is already a big expense.

"If someone at home helps take care of the children, women can go out to work." Chen Xiu said.

"Some people don't have a mother-in-law. If there is a mother-in-law, she may not be in good health, or she may not want to help take care of her. Basically, women take care of their children by themselves. If they are lucky, someone will take care of their confinement. If they are not lucky, they have to work. of."

The girls fell silent.

"Women in Changping Township are lucky. The Township Lord's Mansion gives them a catty of brown sugar and [-] eggs during their confinement. Maybe there will be childcare subsidies in the future." Chen Ying mentioned maternity subsidies.

Everyone began to think.

Zhang Ci came back and said that the situation in Changping Township is very good.All the villages are organizing people to take the rain to dredge the ditches in the villages and fields, so as to prevent the villages and crops from accumulating water.
