"Official, what's wrong with you?" Pan Lian'er asked with concern.

Song Jiu would not answer, so he changed the topic: "Liang'er, why don't you interact with another young lady in his family?"

"You said that little E, how old is she," Pan Lian'er giggled. Song Jiu understood. No wonder he had never seen another little lady of the Song family once, but this was the case in this era. There was no family planning and no contraceptive measures. In most places, they went to bed as soon as it was dark, and there was no sleep in the first half of the night. So they worked hard and would bear fruit after working hard. If the medical industry was not developed, many babies died prematurely and the population would expand faster. It also caused another result, with a huge difference between the growth and the young.

Song Jiu went to Hezhou after dinner.

The Qingming Festival is coming. Song Jiu plans to let the theater open in advance before Qin Zaixing and Pan Mei leave, and is rushing to work and platoons. He rode a horse to Hezhou. Large-scale planting of trees and flowers began to be called beautiful. It must be considered beautiful when all the houses are built before they can be considered beautiful. In addition, it is manpower. Zhao Chengzong has Zhao Chengzong's method, and Song Jiu has Song Jiu's method. After February, Song Jiu sent people to post notices in various places in the capital and nearby prefectures and counties, recruiting people in a large number of people. It is impossible for a salary of fifty cents a day, so it has risen to seventy cents. Originally, Song Jiu wanted to increase to eighty cents, but then met Zhao Chengzong. Zhao Chengzong disagreed. Xiaojiu, you are not raising your salary, but you are cheating me.

At least from the beginning to the end, Song Jiu was "kind of Zhao Chengzong and others", but Zhao Chengzong might not necessarily be able to affect Song Jiu's love. The situation between the two families is different, so Song Jiu's kindness is quite normal.

This salary can barely support the family, but there are also. For example, some of these trees and plants require high physical work. Some of them can do it even for ordinary women and elderly people, with a lower salary at most. However, if a family of two or three stays on it, they can earn more than 100 liters a day, and their lives can gradually improve.

There is also a temporary house for them when he came, which was a straw shed like Zhao Chengzong. The shed of the disaster victims in the past few years, which was used to shelter the wind and rain. When the service was 1,500 working days, Hezhou would buy land in Henan and build a house for them that originally had vegetable farmers. This time would be very long. Even if the project was constantly stopped, there were still some bad weather, which would have to be stopped. At most, there were 250 working days a year, which was even less, only 200 days. But it depends on that women and elderly people also had to work, with eight divisions of labor and six divisions of labor. In fact, they could wait for the legendary house in four or five years. There were no commercial areas in Henan. There were even fewer tourists, and the land was cheap, but a house would cost six or seventy yuan. This would be a lot of salary.

There are also welfare conditions. If a strong man who works normally suffers from a serious illness, he will still be calculated as a working day after confirmation. After the 1,500 working days are over, all of them will be arranged to work in Hezhou.

After the notice was posted, some people in the capital, as well as floating households and poor people from neighboring prefectures and counties, rushed over one after another. It was not possible in the distance. They still didn't know how precious this opportunity to work was. More than 700 households came one after another, but they had not stopped yet, and people continued to rush over.

The labor problem that Song Jiu needed was easily resolved.

There are also conditions. If you do not work hard, you can eliminate the accumulation of work, get rid of wages or workday numbers, and you will be warned once, and you will be severely fined twice, and you will be fined for working days. However, after three discoveries, you will be kicked out of Hezhou. There is another situation. If you take the lead in causing trouble or commit a serious crime, the minor one will be kicked out of Hezhou, and the serious one will be sent to the government for punishment. This is to prevent those who are interested from bewitching people. After all, these people come from all over the world, which is the same as the people of the two rivers.

Song Jiu looked around and returned home, but he still couldn't understand why Zhao Kuangyin fell in love with the little lady of the Song family?

And this time the speed was very fast. The edict was issued before, and the young lady of the Song family was included in the palace later.

It can be said that Zhao Kuangyin's life is simple, including marriage and expenses, but it can also be said that the young lady of the Song family cannot replace Queen Wang's position in Zhao Kuangyin's heart, otherwise she would not be able to do so quickly and simply.

The Cold Food Festival is here and the theater is open.

There are only three floors of real viewing, and each floor is very low, only two meters and five in height, but the stage is as high as 1.5 meters. It is not that people cannot be seen, but sound cannot be heard. This must be designed like this. That is the case, and there are not many audiences. The eighth row of seats on the first floor has been tested in advance. This is the maximum. The second floor has six rows of seats and only four rows of seats on the third floor. Otherwise, even people will not be able to see clearly in the back. The eighteen rows of seats, a total of 820 people.

The ticket price on the ground floor is cheap, only 400 ci, 600 ci, and 800 ci. The second floor is expensive, 1,500 ci, 2,000 ci, but there is a welfare condition. One person can bring a servant in for free, and they can also sit down to watch the show, but it is not the sofa-style seats in the front row, but only two rows of benches, and everyone squeezes together. In fact, the position is the best ticket position in front of the second floor, which is the best, but people in this era pay attention to the word "high". The third floor is more expensive, with three scoops and four scoops, but two servants can be brought in for free.

The price of tickets is not clear now, but it is very long. The show starts at 10 am and ends at 9 pm, which lasts for five and a half hours. It is not all for the show. It starts at 10 pm and is the time to watch the scenery. It is not yet, and there will be many beautiful scenery in the Nanbian River. This river is not open to navigation anyway, and some of it is enough to be decorated slowly. It starts at 4 pm and 6 pm is the time to have dinner. The restaurant charges will not be as expensive as Shun Restaurant, but it is similar to high-end restaurants. However, the food inside is not much inferior to Shun Restaurant. After dinner, there are several small sports fields suitable for women's sports, playing ball, or sitting in the lounge next to play cards and mahjong, and then entering at 6 o'clock.

This is for the enjoyment of noble ladies, of course, you have to spend money. But it is okay not to spend money. After a while, you can buy cheap tickets and stay for a day, it only costs 400 cents. It depends on everyone's financial situation. Of course, if a man goes in, many of them are separated by men and women, and there is no need to avoid it.

The previous two days, most of the tickets were divided up by the Yanei, and only about one hundred tickets were leaked out, and half were bought by ticket sellers who smelled the smell. The tickets were reversal. Song Jiu got the most tickets, which was a wish. There were more than 20 guests in Chenzhou alone, and more than a dozen tickets were given to the Pan family. He included two doctoral tickets, and took more than 20 tickets. Three people rushed to the theater in a mighty manner.

There were more than 820 people inside, including more than 1,000 servants. They all arrived and pulled the curtain down on time, and it became dark inside. Then a few lights similar to searchlights on the front of the stage turned on the lights, and these lights could also be regulated. The people who regulated were inside the stage, and they could not see it outside, and they could astigmatize it, concentrate it and divide it. There were also a huge background picture behind each scene. At the same time, there were various props, half of which were reminded by Song Jiu, and most of them were supplementary methods that were thought of by each leader and manager. It seemed a bit incongruous, and after gradual adjustment, it would be better. However, for the Song people today, all this is novel enough.

The first scene is the Legend of the White Snake.

After repeated flooding by literati, this story has become very long.

Now there is no novel, where can the long dramas come from? They all come from, and they are all silent. In the blink of an eye, an hour and a half passed. Many people surrounded Song Jiu and asked the plot. Song Jiu ran away. Don’t ask, just tell me. I just told Pan Lianer to entertain guests. Pan Lianer nodded. Her husband had a lot of things at hand. Time was tight. So I continued to read and saw that at night. After countless joys and sorrows, Xu Xian asked Fahai to trick Jinshan Temple and then ended. To know the matter, we will break it down tomorrow. Qin Zaixiong was anxious and stopped Pan Lianer despite avoiding suspicion. Pan Lianer pouted and protested: "I want to know the result too, the official has never said it once."

The next day, all the people who watched came, only Song Jiuwei. In order to grab the time, my elder sister hired a carriage before dawn, took the family to visit the graves, and then came back to watch the show. Song Jiu said on the way: "Sister, you can watch it occasionally, you can't delay your business in the wine shop."

The white snake was finished and it was so scammered. In addition, the white fox and the white fairy were probably the most popular ghost in the capital. But the problem came, and the West Chamber began again. This version of the novel was found in the Tang Dynasty, but it was not so long and so exciting. It made Pan Mei and Qin Zaixiong lose their energy during the new fire ceremony the next day. I hoped to end soon and ride a horse to Hezhou quickly. It was so tempting for them, and the women. It was hard to get a real ticket for this day.

It is different from Shundian. If you want to be of high quality, you can eat, drink, have fun and have a few hundred yuan. Here, you can make a grand move, and more than ten yuan per person is enough. If you buy tickets at a low price, you can spend a day with two or three yuan. For poor people, its consumption is still very high, but there are thousands of noble people in the capital, and there are only thousands of families with officials’ families, and there are not too many rich businessmen. Only 820 tickets are enough to get a share.

At the end of the Qingming Festival, Qin Zaixing and a group of barbarians were hang out for a few days and didn't want to leave. But he still had to leave, including Mrs. Tian, ​​who was very nostalgic, also took a boat to leave and went to Tanzhou. The group first went to Dongshuimen, two ships, including Mrs. Pan and his servants, and several barbarians. Not only did the luggage brought by Tian, ​​but also the gifts given by Song Jiu. He spent a lot of money on Pan Lian'er's hands. Qin Zaixing was the eldest brother. If he didn't spend money, it would be called valuing sex over friends.

He allocated 20,000 yuan to buy many necessary items in Chenzhou, including various books, and took out some brocade silk silk from the gifts. These were all high-quality silk fabrics, far from the kind of cloth used for money, and the workmanship was very exquisite. He gave it to Qin Zaixiong and his familiar and familiar wife. Not only friendship, but these exquisite silk weavings can open up the vision of southern corsecrated women. Some corsecrated women are also very skillful, which will make their weaving skills a step further.

In addition, some gifts from Zhao Kuangyin, all of them had to be loaded on the ship.

Watching the ship leave, Qin Zaixing and Song Jiu embraced each other and parted. I don’t know when we will meet again. Pan Mei only said one sentence: “Okay, no wonder you kid was so angry at the beginning. This ability to cheat money is the first-class in the world.”

The ticket is really expensive, but this ticket may not be available. Either you buy it from the ticket checker, the price doubles. Guan Jian knows it is very expensive, but there are still many people who want to go in.

The group rode down and galloped downwards.

In fact, some of Song Jiu's practices have had a good promotion to the integration of Chenzhou, but there is no sad copper pillar.

The former regime in Hunan in the south was Nan Chu. Peng Shichou, the leader of Xizhou, led his subordinates to attack Chenli and Lizhou, and was defeated by King Ma Xifan of Chu. However, the situation outside of Nan Chu was very tense. Ma Xifan signed an agreement with the barbarian leaders due to the situation. Xizhou, which is the current Beijiang barbarian ministers belong to Nan Chu, but Nan Chu must exempt Xizhou from taxes. Without the withdrawal of troops, the Chu army and civilians are not allowed to enter Xizhou at will. If the chiefs of various departments of Xizhou are guilty, they can only be punished by the Peng family, and Nan Chu cannot send troops to interfere.

This policy temporarily stabilized the west side of Southern Chu, but it certainly did not work. Not to mention that there were too many examples of the previous dynasties after the Song Dynasty in history, Nan Zhao, the future Western Xia, Tubo, etc. When relations were tense, this copper pillar was of great effect, but when fusion was carried out, this copper pillar would become a dazzling gap.

Not only this copper pillar, but there are other problems, but Song Jiu's biggest advantage is that he will not think about it when he can't figure it out, and he will seek troubles in vain. After standing for a while, he rode a horse and took Pan Lian'er home. In Yuping's words, Pan Lian'er was almost Song Jiu's little tail, and Pan Lian'er would go wherever Song Jiu went. The couple's relationship was so good that it made the people around him feel numb.

As soon as he arrived home, he saw Xiaohuangmen waiting for him. Xiaohuangmen said, "Your Majesty, please ask Jiulang to the inner palace."

It was getting late. However, it was normal for Zhao Kuangyin. He often did not summon ministers on time and often ran to ministers' houses. Not only Zhao Pu and other ministers had also been there. In fact, he was probably too bored in the palace and took the opportunity to see the ministers and went out for a walk.

Song Jiu entered the inner palace.

Zhao Kuangyin asked him to sit down and said, "Song Jiu, are Qin Zaixing and the others gone?"

"Weichen just sent them away."

"You have done a good job. Jinghu has gradually become peaceful in recent years. Last year, the rice from Chameng City was promoted and some fields were built. Tanzhou was mature and the people were peaceful. The barbarians in the north and south also sent leaders to surrender to our court. You have also made contributions in this."

"Your Majesty, I dare not, this is what the Imperial Minister should do."

"But you also gave me a headache. Zhao Chengzong lied to others in Hebei. You are seductive in Hezhou. Summer tax will come up soon. Where can I use people?"

Many ministers wrote to report this matter, saying that labor was tight and that the others were not dared to say. Zhao Chengzong didn't dare to say at all, and Song Jiu couldn't say it. With the prosperity of Hezhou, not only did Hezhou industries pay heavy taxes, but each store generated a large number of transactions and paid taxes, with the monthly tax reaching more than 30,000 yuan. Song Jiu and the others had not actually received much money, and the capital had not been recovered. Either Song Jiu got a lot of money, but it seemed that there was not much. Therefore, they would not be jealous. So they looked at the tax and dared not impeach them one by one.

But this labor problem must be raised, otherwise no one will unload the goods when they come, so will they be placed on the ship?

Song Jiu said slowly: "Your Majesty, there is a way. The purpose of the country's initial deployment of wing soldiers is nothing more than to reduce the labor service of the people, increase the reserve of the ban, and appease the victims. However, there are many elderly, weak, sick and disabled, or timid. If there are large-scale water conservancy projects or roads, the court still needs to mobilize the people, or implement them with the method of disaster victims. If it is to catch thieves, enrich the border defense strength, guard the prison city, and select the ban, these soldiers are not very suitable. In fact, they are not very motivated to build ships and transport taxes. But these people are still okay to do ordinary work. It is better to eliminate three or four thousand people, return the troops to the people and let them come to Hezhou."

Zhao Kuangyin did not speak, it was easy to eliminate and difficult to resettle.

Song Jiu also said: "Use them as service households, and the labor time is limited every year. The rest of the time allows them to freely break up the work. In the future, the scale of Hezhou will be imagined by His Majesty Hu. Even if I plan, I will also imagine that Hu. There are manpower everywhere. The labor is unstable, but the salary is relatively high. Now, there may not be many opportunities for labor, but it doesn't matter. Only the court's labor is the main focus, and the rest will be organized by the Wei ministers into the construction of Hezhou. The next issue is the housing issue. At that time, it is calculated that as long as the construction lasts for five hundred days, Hezhou will build houses for them."

"That's a lot of money."

"I don't care. What I worry about is the yamen. There is no big problem. If I lack labor, I will force them to make some humility."

"Just follow your report," Zhao Kuangyin said, and said again: "What are you going to do about the academy?"

"I am waiting for His Majesty's edict."

"The workers may not agree to build as you have on your drawings."

"Your Majesty, you allocate money. I will suggest that the rest of the money will be invested. We can also contribute money, donating it in the name of Hezhou, rather than in the name of individuals."

"You, do you need to be so careful? There are people everywhere donating to educate. I have commended you many times. It is a good thing to be able to donate, so there is no need to be so taboo."

Song Jiu would not take it seriously and said, "Your Majesty's wedding, I will offer you a gift to Your Majesty."
