Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 560 The right to know Hangzhou military affairs 6
"Brother, the construction of the academy must be done as soon as possible. Let Pangdun and the others use dim sum, cement, and red bricks to top it up for me. Don't care about the money. If you don't have any, just go to the Hangzhou branch to pick it up. If you don't have more than [-] yuan, you don't need to tell my eldest sister and me. Oh, the third brother is Renhe’s parents and officials must also do their part, and the civilian husbands must also keep up, divided into three shifts day and night, and the wages are based on the market and the maximum plus three floors.”

Wang Xiu couldn't wait. If he knew that Hangzhou was the first step of the New Deal, then the establishment of the academy was the main line throughout, and it could be said to be the top priority.

Zong Liang is easy to say, as long as he has money, he can do things easily. The Hangzhou branch of Wangji Department Store is one of the three best branches of the Wang family. , the branch really has this strength.

Liu Renfeng very much agrees with the establishment of the academy, but she nods too much, and her husband is too impatient, and the main body will be completed in half a year, which is simply a joke.

"Half a year, no problem at all. Civil servants work in three shifts, which is equivalent to more than a year." Zong Liang is absolutely confident that if someone with money can't handle it well, you can still be a bird official.

"Sir, I'm afraid there is not enough manpower." Liu Renfeng couldn't bear Zong Liang's gaze, and couldn't help but black lines.

"Sir, didn't you say that you will be paid three more floors?" Zong Liang frowned slightly, and glared at Liu Renfeng in displeasure.

Liu Renfeng shook his head, and said, "Hangzhou's migrant workers are expensive, and generally there is no shortage of work. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the third floor to recruit enough people."

The corner of Wang Xiu's mouth twitched, adding three tiers of wages is still not enough. Could it be that after less than ten years in Hangzhou, the destruction of Fangla's rebellion has been wiped out?He couldn't help asking: "How much is the Renhe County Dagong?"

"The masons in Renhe pay 350 yuan a day, six liters of japonica rice, and the servants also need [-] yuan, four liters of japonica rice, and the owner pays for vegetables every day." Liu Renfeng said honestly.

Wang Xiu couldn't help but take a deep breath. That is to say, Dagong earns more than ten guan a month, which is not as good as the income of officials, but in terms of consumption level, ten guan is enough to support the life of Chinese-funded families. To say that a mason is a coolie is simply a gray-collar master, and he eats a technical diet!
"This, this is comparable to the practice." Zong Liang couldn't help but click his tongue a little. If he wanted to catch up with the third shift of the academy, it would cost three times as many civilians, and the money would not flow out.

"Xiu, you must do it as soon as possible. You should do it immediately, don't worry about money." Now that Wang Xiu has made up his mind, he will never turn back.

"Don't worry, sir." Zong Liang took the lead in agreeing.

"Since money is needed, let's do good deeds to the end, temporarily build a muddy pond, and use showers to clean the bodies of civilian husbands, so as to avoid outbreaks of epidemics."

Liu Renfeng nodded earnestly and agreed. Jiangnan is humid and plagued by disease. It would be great for a peasant husband to take a shower after work. Wang Xiu has even considered the details. What else can he say?
Hangzhou is governed by Liangzhe Road, and it is also a large county in the southeast. It governs eight counties including Qiantang, Renhe, Yuhang, Changhua, Yuqian, Xincheng, Fuyang and Yanguan.

Although the Zhu family's father and son's violent expropriation and Fang La's rebellion made the lives of Liangzhe Road miserable, it cannot be denied that the power of the people is great.In less than ten years, Hangzhou has recovered its prosperity and once again became the economic center of Liangzhe Road, and its population has risen to about 40.

Today, at the Tongjuan, Zhu Cao joined the army and the magistrates of the nine counties gathered at the prefecture's office. Liu Renfeng of Zhirenhe County had a calm expression on his face, chatting and laughing happily with his colleagues.

However, Hangzhou officials are also Wang Xiu's acquaintances. Wang Ang, the number one scholar in the first year of Chonghe, now judges Hangzhou with his family. Where do we not meet again!I can only complain that the world is too small.

Wang Xiu's reputation is well-known in the court and the public, not to mention his authority. This time, people who know Hangzhou and have some connections in the court have received some hints. If they know the purpose of Wang Xiu's trip, the Huiyi case happened in Hangzhou. , it's hard not to make use of the topic, and everyone is uneasy.

What's more, Wang Xiu ignored the government affairs for many days and suddenly summoned the bureaucrats. The mystery of it made people feel uneasy.Sometimes, when the chief official arrives, everyone can accept it immediately, because it is a routine. Wang Xiu ignores government affairs for more than ten days to let your nerves relax a little, and then suddenly summons everyone, this is what can scare people to death.

In the past few days, there has been an endless stream of officials, big and small, visiting the state government office. Except for the state officials, no one else can see Wang Xiu at all, and the mansion manager will accept it on his behalf.Well, it's really a smile, as long as you send it, he dares to accept it, the so-called all comers.

Xu Zhong, as Wang Xiu's close guard, always stared at others with vigilant eyes, but how many people's blood was stained on his hands, making those who have ghosts in their hearts uneasy.

Wang Ang was really depressed, he was awarded Jinshi and the first, and Wang Xiu was the tenth. His career in the officialdom for more than ten years had already overwhelmed him.Today, Wang Xiu has long been a scholar of the Guanwen Temple, but he is a householder and has no qualifications to guard a large county. Even if he is a general judge, he cannot be compared with Wang Xiu.

However, his promotion was not too slow. In the same year, there were still people struggling in Shangshulangzhong and Yuanwailang.Tong San and Zhizhou are considered parallel, and neither of them does anything about the other.

After Wang Xiu took office, he still kept a certain distance. He neither evaded nor flattered him, nor went to greet Wang Xiu when he took office, maintaining his due aloofness.Of course, as the chief inspector, Tong San didn't need to show courtesy to the magistrate, but Wang Xiu was leading his ministers, so it would be unreasonable not to greet him.

While everyone was discussing, Wang Xiu walked into the public hall with a smile on her face, wearing a brand new purple robe and a purple gold fish bag around her waist.

The crowd hurriedly paid homage, Wang Xiu greeted everyone with a smile and chatted with them in an easy-going manner. This expression made many people feel at ease.

After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Xiucai walked up to Wang Ang, cupped his hands and smiled and said, "Brother Shuxing, you and I have not seen each other for many years in the same year, and I haven't seen you for more than ten days. I'm still wondering what's going on, is it expensive?" A little sick."

Wang Ang returned the salute, he knew very well in his heart that Wang Xiu was retaliating against him and ignored him, and said flatly: "The next official is only a low-level official, so why should I worry about it?"

"It's serious, you and I are the same age, we don't distinguish between each other." When we met a soft nail, it was obvious that the words were not speculative, Wang Xiu didn't have any displeasure on his face, he just nodded slightly, Wang Ang didn't go to meet him, He has already fallen behind, he taunted lightly, but there is nothing to worry about.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he slowly sat on the top and greeted everyone to take their seats.

Seeing that Wang Xiu took the initiative to greet Wang Ang, some people couldn't help but looked enviously, but Wang Ang was so lukewarm that they were surprised, and they all secretly scolded Wang Ang for being unsophisticated. Say a few words to get close.
