Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 1329: Feng Ni's troubles

The impact of machine-made cloth on the economy of small farmers in rural areas is certain, but the impact is still controlled within a certain range, because the cloth made by women in most rural households spinning and weaving is made into clothes for their families to wear. No, or there is no extra cloth to sell.

Therefore, the price of cotton cloth on the market will not affect their self-sufficiency. One tael per piece of cloth and ten tael per piece of cloth have no practical significance for them, because they are self-sufficient and do not not participate in the market economy.

As for specializing in spinning and weaving for a long time, or simply organizing multiple people to spin and weave for a long time, and then take them out to sell and exchange for money, there are, but there are not many in fact, and this model is actually a departure from the This is already a traditional small workshop model, which has little to do with the majority of ordinary farmers.

And this kind of textile workshop, in fact, in the past so many years, most of them have carried out equipment upgrades.

Those big textile companies may buy hundreds of machinery and employ hundreds or even thousands of jobs to produce cloth, but for those small workshops, they can also buy one or two machinery and go on Their small estimate workshop-style production.

Therefore, the transformation of the textile industry has not actually had a great impact on the self-sufficient economy in rural areas. The circulation of commodities in rural areas is very scarce, which is destined to be difficult for the market economy to affect the closed, self-sufficient rural areas. Regional.

In the innovation of the textile industry, and even in the entire industrial revolution, the original traditional handicraftsmen have the greatest influence, especially those who are stubborn and do not know how to adapt, and they are the most affected.

Among them, those who are active in thinking will keep up with the times, but some people who do not know how to change will sink in this change.

Every change, no matter what it is, will always create countless new opportunities and bury countless people at the same time.

If those handicraftsmen do not know how to change and embrace the industrial age, then in the future, what awaits them will be completely lost among the crowd.

As for the rural areas, the policy implemented by the empire today is still based on stability!

Steady increase in food production and avoid large-scale famine!

On this basis, increase the extra income of farmers!

In response to specific policies, the empire issued a settlement order to organize rural labor to open up wasteland and develop more land.

At the same time, during the slack season, local governments employ a large number of young and strong laborers to build various infrastructures, mainly water conservancy facilities. With water conservancy facilities, the output of grain can be better guaranteed, wasteland can be turned into fertile land, and the local area can be improved. agricultural economic development, contribute more agricultural tax.

On the other hand, it also provides ordinary rural young and strong laborers with an opportunity to earn money by doing odd jobs during the slack farming period, increasing the extra income of rural laborers.

In fact, this policy is to continue to make the stable expansion of agricultural production in rural areas as the core!

Especially in some major grain-producing areas, maintaining grain output is an important task for local officials. The higher-level officials even asked the local officials to complete the grain output target.

In order to achieve grain output, in fact, many local officials are eager to let every rural laborer farm all day long, and even do not support them to go to large cities outside the country to work in factories to make money.

Well, of course, going to a factory to make money is actually not that good. If you just don’t have any special skills or strength, and go to work in a big city, you can only be the most ordinary worker, and this kind of work is labor-intensive. High, the salary income is not high, and the key is that the consumption in the city is also high, and the salary that makes money is just enough to support myself at most.

However, this can always make oneself full to eat!

If you have worked for a few years, gained experience, and learned some skills, then the salary will still be higher in the future, and it will be possible to support a family by then.

Therefore, some rural children who are more courageous and more active, or poor children with a small family and a large number of people, have already set their sights on major cities one after another, flocking to the cities to find a way to survive.

However, these two industries require a large amount of labor, which also leads to the contradiction between industry, commerce and agriculture competing for population. This situation has not appeared on a large scale in the country for the time being, but only in areas where industry and commerce are developing rapidly. and surrounding areas.

In July of the 17th year of Xuanping, several companies settled in the third industrial zone asked to see Feng Ni, saying that some of their employees had been detained at Jiaxing Mansion, and asked the government in Huating for help.

When Feng Ni asked, he learned that these companies could not find enough cheap workers in Shanghai because of the huge number of employees and the average salary they offered.

In order to solve the problem of workers, several of their companies joined forces and sent people to recruit workers on the spot in Jiaxing Prefecture, Zhejiang Province next door.

As a result, these corporate employees who went to recruit workers were detained by the Jiaxing government.

As soon as they got the news, these companies rushed to Feng Ni's side to ask for help!

Upon learning of this, Feng Ni was furious!

He finally obtained the platform support of Chen Lifu, and then obtained part of the investment through this, and then used it to apply for a loan. Now the loan has already been released and used for various infrastructure construction in the third industrial zone. , In addition to Yanjiang Avenue, two north-south avenues were started, and the second phase of the freight terminal was started.

Many factories in the industrial zone are also erected, and more places are under intense construction.

This situation made the investors who chose to settle in the third industrial zone very happy. Although it was said that they were mostly fooled when they chose to live in the third industrial zone, if the infrastructure of the third industrial zone can be followed up, then they I don't mind investing in building factories in the third industrial zone.

This third industrial zone is about to get on the right track, and now is the time to open up the situation. I didn't expect that the Jiaxing House next door would dare to trip him up.

They are trying to force him to be ruthless!

He knows that the company cannot recruit enough workers!

After all, Feng Ni is not an ordinary traditional official. He is a very typical economic official. He has always been engaged in economic construction. Naturally, he is very clear about what is needed to develop industry and commerce, investors and workers.

In Shanghai, there are actually a lot of workers. Hundreds of thousands of workers live in the Shanghai area, but he also knows that most of these workers have jobs themselves. In order to hire enough workers, many companies have already paid enough money. It has reached the top level in the country.

Currently in Shanghai, a worker with no special skills and no heavy work can earn a salary of one yuan and five yuan.

If it is a skilled worker, such as a textile worker with one year of work experience, the salary can generally reach about two yuan.

If there is a strong man on the dock who is resistant to goods, his monthly income can generally reach between three and four yuan.

Low-level technical personnel and management personnel generally have a salary of more than ten yuan.

This kind of salary level is actually very high nationwide!

This kind of high salary imposes a heavy burden on enterprises. Otherwise, why would so many enterprises prefer to spend a lot of money to purchase a large number of machinery and equipment, because it can produce efficiency and reduce labor costs.

At the same time, there are also many companies who like to go out to other places to directly recruit workers. If they recruit in this way, the salary they will give will often be lower.

This is also the reason why companies in the third industrial zone will organize groups to recruit people in Jiaxing.

However, the employees sent by these companies to Jiaxing to recruit people were detained by Jiaxing, which made Feng Ni very angry. Why did Jiaxing do this?

These companies are just recruiting employees, which is very common in many companies. In order to reduce labor costs and at the same time to recruit enough workers quickly, many large companies like to go directly to other places to recruit workers.

This kind of thing, people do it reasonably and legally, not to arrest people and sell slaves, why should the government over there arrest people?

Feng Ni immediately convened a relevant meeting, and then sent someone to Jiaxing to inquire about the relevant situation. Is it because those companies recruiting workers did something that violated the discipline or suffered an unwarranted disaster.

However, at this time, the officials in Jiaxing were also working hard!

Li Kaiji, the prefect of Jiaxing, was an official from the former Ming Dynasty, but he had already started from the dragon when the Tang Dynasty Wang Shi invaded Jiangxi~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Speaking of which, he was also a veteran servant of the dragon.

He is a typical traditional official. He doesn't know much about the development of industry and commerce, but he is very good at developing agriculture and mulberry. It is precisely because he worked in Hunan that he was successful in developing agriculture, so he was transferred to Jiaxing. , as the prefect of Jiaxing Prefecture.

Jiaxing Mansion is also considered to be the Jiangnan region in a broad sense. This kind of mansion is also a high-class mansion. Therefore, although it is only a level-ranked position of the fourth grade, it is still considered to be a half-level promotion.

However, after he took office, he felt that being an official in Jiaxing was even more difficult than when he was an official in Hunan, and there were so many problems.

He is not good at developing industry and commerce, and Jiaxing is just sandwiched between Hangzhou and Songjiang Prefecture, which means that the two sides are not in harmony, and the development of industry is unreliable.

So he can only focus on agriculture, which he is very good at, but he soon discovered a problem, that is, when he was recruiting rural laborers and trying to reclaim more wasteland, it turned out to be a development recruitment Not many people.

I asked more carefully, and asked if there were not many people before, but I was told that there were still many people when recruiting people to organize wasteland a few years ago, but in the past four or five years, this number of people has become more and more. The more scarce.

He was puzzled, why?
