As the saying goes, the leg is broken when the bottom runs.

At present, the laws of the Qin Dynasty are very strict, and almost all aspects are subject to laws and regulations. Civilians abide by laws and regulations, and officials are the same. You should know that in order to force the spells, Shang Yang killed many people, including the royal family, and Gongzi Qian was cut off his nose for illegal activities. These are still vivid in my mind. Now many evil laws of the Qin Dynasty have been terminated in the hands of Lu Buwei, and after Chen Xu came to power, a large number of abolished and revised. However, with the strong promotion of Li Si and other legal disciples, the tradition of the Qin Dynasty's law and order is as strong as a mountain has not weakened at all, but has become increasingly popular among the people.

There are strong laws on the top, but now under Chen Xu's reform, the three provinces and six ministries have some intention of doing their own business. The booming business and the traditional workshop system of state-owned enterprises can no longer adapt to the current market development. Private enterprises adopt a completely market-oriented management method, and they are responsible for their own profits and losses. Everything can be solved with money. However, state-owned factories such as experimental factories and silk factories still adopt an ancient corvee system. The employees of the factory recruit female workers from the private sector. According to the law, these people allocate one kilogram of rations every day according to the regular regulations. However, due to the special circumstances, the food for factory employees has increased to two kilograms, so that the factory logistics can have room for operation and use the excess grain money to purchase oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, meat and vegetables, etc., so that the dietary standards of the Ministry of Revenue can be met.

However, if you purchase river shrimps like Chen Xu and use a lot of oil and salt ingredients to make delicious meals, it is okay to eat one or two meals occasionally. However, if a regular meal is formed all year round, a big hole will inevitably appear and cannot be compensated, because the silk factory does not have independent financial control at present.

Chen Xu naturally understood the supervisor's words, sat on the chair, rubbing his chin with a bunch of short beards and pondered.

As the saying goes, money can make the devil push the mill, but nothing can be done without money. He can naturally write to the Emperor Shihuang to ask the Shaofu to increase the financial allocation of silk factory to improve the quality of life of employees. However, there are too many places that require the imperial court to spend, and more and more subordinate factories. This will not only fail to fundamentally solve the problem, but will instead cause huge financial burden to the imperial court.

In later generations, a large number of state-owned factories were slowly raised to death. Without innovation or burden, they were produced step by step according to the requirements of the state. Later, when the state could not afford it, they could only sell it. This not only caused a large number of state-owned assets, but also caused a large number of employees to be laid off. The laid-off workers of state-owned enterprises whose iron rice bowls were broken all lived a very miserable life, causing the whole of China to be mourned. Some people who had divorced their wives, some people who had hanged themselves, and some people who were cynical...

Chen Xu no longer needs to cross the river with a feeling of the disadvantages of state-owned enterprises. If the enterprise cannot be fully marketed, he will inevitably slowly enter a dead end in the future.

Although the silk factory has just begun to be established, it already has a very rigid corporate system and management method like state-owned enterprises. It is not that the factory's top management does not want to do it well, but that there is no way, because the law is too strict and no one dares to touch it.

Although most state-owned factories will gradually become market-oriented in the future, and factories need more free financial rights and more flexible management systems, the current situation is urgent to solve the problem of increasing dietary expenses and some better welfare benefits, so that the factory can retain excellent employees as much as possible. Otherwise, under the temptation of the merchants of private silk factories, all the skilled employees may run away in a year.

"Mr. Liao is talking about the truth. I also know the difficulties of the factory, but as the saying goes, there are always more ways than difficulties..." Chen Xusi thought about it and spoke slowly, while his eyes swept across everyone's faces.

"This marquis cannot write to the court to request more funding to the factory. Your silk factory has invested a lot now, and two kilograms of grain per day is also a special kindness for His Majesty. Many workshops and mines still implement the standard of one kilogram of grain, and they are still men. Female workers eat less, so they can only use the food left in the food. All the court has its own laws, and this marquis cannot overcome it. Therefore, if you want to improve the living standards of employees and improve the welfare benefits, you can only think of your own way..."

"Marty, I can't make any extra money except for the hundreds of stones of official rank every year?" A middle-aged manager couldn't help but complain.

"There are two ways to alleviate the financial situation. One is to increase the source and the other is to reduce the cost. Since you have achieved the ultimate in savings, there is only one way to open the source. Therefore, you have to find ways to make money by yourself and find more ways to improve living standards and welfare benefits. Can a group of living people still make urine suffocate? My Hou saw yesterday that in addition to the third phase of the factory that is being expanded to the east, there is also a large area of ​​open space on the river bank in the southwest. My Hou thinks that there is still a lot of potential to make good use of this land..."

"Marty, that's a wasteland, with nothing but weeds and thorns..." a manager reminded carefully.

"It is because it is a wasteland that I said there is great potential. Now there are more than 1,000 female workers in the factory and more than 200 other logistics management personnel. On weekdays, you can carry out some amateur production activities. You can organize employees to reclaim wasteland and grow crops such as fruits, vegetables, onions, ginger, garlic, and mustard. This will not only provide a large amount of food for the canteen, but also save a lot of expenses every year..."

"Hey, the Marquis's proposal seems to be great..."

A group of executives' eyes were lit almost at the same time, and they all started to communicate and discuss left and right after being surprised.

"Not only planting fruits, vegetables and crops, but also digging a lake to raise fish, planting some mulberry trees on the shore, and raising some chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep to form a natural and harmonious farm. This can not only meet the food expenses of the factory, but also provide employees with a place for leisure, entertainment and entertainment. My husband said that these weaver girls are not servants, nor are they slaves. In addition to strengthening their diet, they also need to carry out more entertainment facilities and improve welfare benefits... It would be a pity if such a good place with abundant water and grass is not used!"

"Mr. Marquis, farming is easy to raise fish, but we can't raise chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep on a large scale..."

"This is simple. You can take my hand to go to the county town and ask the agricultural college stationed in the county town to arrange a teacher and a few interns to help and guide. Remember, you should pay them a salary, and you can find a way to do this money yourself!"

"This is naturally. Don't worry, Marquis. As long as they are willing to come, we can still squeeze out the money from the logistics. As long as the farm is opened, we will have money in the future..." The supervisor nodded happily.

"Okay, the method of opening source has been given to you. You can do the rest yourself. Remember, the faster the matter is, the better. As for that open space, I will talk to the magistrate of Guangling County later and allocate it to your factory for permanent use. As long as the farm is ready, the factory will be able to eat fish, meat, poultry and eggs every day. If you can't finish it, you can sell it for money. This money can be used to improve employee welfare. You can hold some entertainment awards and give some prizes on weekdays. Only in this way can the vitality and cohesion of the factory be guaranteed. I will hand over the silk factory to you. I hope you will not let this Marquis down, let alone your Majesty. I will leave Guangling to Wuzhong tomorrow, and will also go to inspect the Hangzhou Silk Factory and the coastal harbor terminal project. Let's give up today. You can do it yourself!"

After saying this, Chen Xu also stood up and prepared to leave. A group of senior executives could only send Chen Xu outside the factory gate together.

"Okay, official duties are the most important. Don't give it to me. Remember that in this marquis, there are always more ways to do things than difficulties in his position. Also, if the finances are abundant next year, remember to go to the Donghai Enamel Factory to order a batch of enamel dishes and tea jars of the same specifications as welfare to all employees. Remember, the development of new silk products is urgent, and the application of jacquard machines is the future of the silk factory..."

After getting on the carriage, Chen Xu left after giving another advice. Seeing Chen Xu's carriage away in the bright sunshine under the escort of a group of guards, a group of officials in the factory couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I used to hear what the marquis did, and I thought it was all exaggerating. I saw it with my own eyes and realized that the rumors were true, and even made me admire him!" The factory manager looked away with his beard and sighed.

"What Director Liao said is that compared to the Marquis, we are really like a frog in a well and have shallow knowledge!"

"Yes, I thought it was a reward for weaving silk, but I didn't know the Marquis' real intention, and the test factory... It turned out to be like this..."

"Confucian scholar Meng Ke once said: Only by knowing shame can one be brave. Although I don't like Meng Ke, I have to admit that this statement is indeed reasonable. This time I got the Marquis to give me some advice in person. I felt that I had a lot of understanding of my mind. I should keep it in mind when I plan my politics in my position!"

"Yes, I'll arrange for someone to reclaim the wasteland as soon as possible, and go to the county town to invite students from the Agricultural College..."

"As it is, I'll go back and discuss it without delay, and I'll start to mess with it tomorrow..."

After a group of officials tiptoed to see Chen Xu's carriage disappear, they turned around the factory and began to plan and arrange according to Chen Xu's instructions.

Chen Xu, who left the factory, was also deeply moved.

This time, we set out from Qinghe Town to inspect the southeastern counties. The place we passed along was very different from five years ago.

Five years ago, the Oriental Road had just been built, and the new Shangluo had just been implemented. At that time, he accompanied Emperor Shin-chan to the southeast. The situation of everything he was in ruins along the way was vivid. At that time, the only word I saw along the way was: Poverty. Along the way, the common people all saw were tattered, pale and thin, which was not much different from the villagers of Xiaohe Village when he just woke up. Moreover, most of the rural and towns along the way were like that kind of shattered thatched huts. The poverty of Daqin was really beyond his imagination.

It turns out that China, which was known as the founding of a prosperous era for two thousand years and was regarded as the emperor of the ages, was poor and felt that Chen Xu felt his heart was bleeding.

Now five years have passed, and it has been eight years since he traveled over. The situation seen during this inspection can be said to be a drastic change.

Many of the houses in rural and towns along the way have been renovated, with smooth roads and neat farmland. The biggest changes are county and county towns. There are almost no old thatched huts. In addition to various shops and gardens, there are also sufficient grain, cloth, pottery and agricultural and sideline products on the market. There are almost no situations where ordinary people can see too much clothing. Most of them are clean coarse linen, and most of them have their faces and skinny skin.

Wherever they pass, there were endless pedestrians, caravans, mountain people carrying loads, and civilians pushing wheelbarrows. When they saw Chen Xu's vast and luxurious team, they all walked with a smile and courteous manner. Although they didn't know that the car was full of famous Qinghe Marquis and his wives, concubines and children, they also maintained enough courtesy and respect for the nobles who traveled.

Facing the nobles of the Qin Dynasty, all the people showed respect from the bottom of their hearts for the first time.

Five years ago, Emperor Shin-Emperor was attacked by bandits along the way, and nearly a thousand bandits were killed by the imperial guards.

This is the changes among the people after Chen Xu vigorously promoted the reform.

Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world.

The people have made a lot of money, but they have little demands. They only need a little satisfaction and peace to make them grateful.

The economic development and calming moves over the past few years have already achieved immediate results. Both the disciples of the hundred families and the merchants have gained a new understanding of the Qin Dynasty and are willing to start to promote the Qin Dynasty to a more prosperous and powerful direction.
