Chapter 876 Hiring Local People Is Also Feasible

"When it comes to the critical moment, they are always making trouble. Where can I find people to plant ginger?"

Bi Gou, who has specially allocated 10,000 mu of land, is worried. The land is available, and who will plant 100 mu this year?

The people in Jingzhao Prefecture who are in good health go to repair wells in the desert, while others who grow cotton grow cotton and tend greenhouses tend greenhouses.

Those who are hired to spread lime spread lime. Isn't it clear? Everyone starts picking tea leaves again.

In the past, there was no work for the outsiders, but now there is not enough work with the outsiders.

The inspection of outsiders entering Jingzhao Prefecture has been relaxed. As long as they are not arrested, it doesn't matter whether they have a household registration and a letter of introduction.

Come on, work, and earn more.

Bi Gou is worried. He thought he needed to arrange the staff. Li Yi provided the ginger seedlings and technology, and the two sides split it in half.

In fact, Lijiazhuangzi had already sent people to pull the ginger seedlings covered with quilts.

Li Longji came back from the court meeting in the morning. He didn't want to go. It was nothing big.

Queen Wang pushed him out and told him that he had to go.

If he didn't go today, he might not go tomorrow either. Over time, he would develop a bad habit.

Li Longji went, held a simple court meeting, and threw the memorial to Gao Lishi for review. He didn't care.

In fact, he wanted to take the memorial back to Li Yi for review, to ensure that it was fast and good.

On the way back, he saw the team leaving Lijiazhuangzi, and went into the manor to find Li Yi: "Don't wait for the Ministry of Revenue to arrange?"

"Ministry of Revenue? Lao Bi? He can't find anyone. People's thinking patterns are different. He thought that Jingzhao Prefecture would be worried if no one was there."

Li Yi didn't expect anyone else at all. Such a small matter was handled casually.

"Brother Yi has people." Li Longji also felt that it was difficult to find people.

"There are people in the local area. It's poor there. The locals like to raise sheep and goats. The poorer the land, the more goats there are, and they are easier to raise."

Li Yi introduced how people in other places live. Goats eat grass and dig roots, which is very destructive to land vegetation.

Goats are easier to raise than sheep, and clothes made of goat skin are more valuable.

The locals raise sheep all year round and occasionally grow some vegetables, day after day.

Then they drive the goats to sell, hoping that the price of grain will be lower, lower.

Li Longji has never been there. Although it is very close, he is curious: "Don't you grow crops?"

"We will grow soybeans and sorghum this year, because there is water. The wells are deeper. As long as you don't stop them, they will pump and carry water by themselves.

Sometimes what the people need is guidance, you tell them what to do. As long as there is a little hope to change their lives, they will work hard.

But if it is placed in Chang'an City, it is different. There are still idle people."

Li Yi certainly knows what human nature is like. The only thing to be thankful for is that the Chinese are more obedient than others.

Li Longji found himself being taught a lesson again, and he smiled: "Do sheep eat ginger seedlings growing on the ground?"

"Yes, but the sheep farmers will control them. They dare not let the sheep eat the ginger seedlings, just as they will not allow sheep to eat watermelon vines.

I bet that the local people will secretly help to guard the things planted in the name of the government and Li's manor.

When the watermelons are ripe, they will secretly eat them, including the ginger they planted, just to eat, not to sell."

Li Yi also laughed. He had seen people who lived near vineyards. If there was no fence around the vineyard, the people nearby would help to take care of it.

When the grapes are ripe, they will definitely steal them, steal a few bunches and take them home to eat.

What era was that, not to mention now.

If things are planted there and no one cares, the people will worry that they will not grow well. Isn't that a pity? It's a very simple idea.

With this idea, they do what they can, and even help you water it.

Watching the watermelon grow gradually, there is a sense of accomplishment. When it is ripe, eat one yourself. It's thirsty.

"Is it so?" Li Longji had never really worked at the grassroots level, and he found it quite interesting.

"Third brother, the well that was dug was also built with a shed on top, not a pressure well with a windlass.

The people around would get water, and by the way, they would build sheds and ropes, and would also bring stones to surround the well.

If there were local hunters, they would also dig a shallow puddle and lay stones underneath.

Wait for the wild animals to drink water, or set traps, or hunt with bows and arrows."

Li Yi talked about the thoughts of the people, they would maintain the wells and their things.

Just like the natural gas production areas in the northwest at that time, the companies would mine and then lay pipelines.

The company would specially leave a small valve, and the locals would use large plastic bags to hold it. A bag of gas was actually very light and could burn for several days.

If someone drove over to steal gas, the people would report it if they saw it.

Then they would use the gas themselves, and it was on the news, and then it was left unresolved.

The company acquiesced, otherwise wouldn't it be better not to leave that valve?

The locals know how dangerous the gas is, but they use large plastic bags to store it, so even if it suddenly burns, it will not cause much harm to people.

The company and the local residents reached an unspoken agreement that the people go to get the gas for free and help to watch the pipeline.

Now it is the Tang Dynasty court and Lijiazhuangzi who are cooperating with the people there in the same tacit way. UＵReading www． uukanshu.net

They get a share of money when they are hired to grow ginger and a share of money when they are hired to grow watermelons.

They are usually given a little money, and they help to take care of it, and they dig it out to eat when they need it.

"What if someone is assigned to guard it?" Li Longji asked seriously.

"It costs more, and the locals must guard the place. If outsiders guard the place, it will be a hostile relationship and will intensify the conflict."

Li Yi waved his hand. No, the more he guarded, the greater the loss, and he might even fight.

Li Longji nodded slightly, indicating that he understood: "Teach them to grow ginger when the time comes?"

"No, we can't let them grow ginger and sell it by themselves. We can only hire them. If they grow ginger by themselves, they will steal my ginger to sell, and the loss will be more than a little bit."

"What if others grow ginger by themselves? What if the rich and powerful grow it?"

"When there are more people who want to grow ginger, the land is ours. We can rent it to them, provide them with ginger seedlings and planting techniques, and then buy the ginger they grow and sell it.

We won't grow it ourselves, and we will become middlemen from producers to make a profit.

Or we can increase the planting area and sell the people's ginger together."

Li Yi brought out the joint production cooperative model, and what he didn't say was the seedling cultivation technology.

He is responsible for selecting and cultivating seedlings. If we teach others, they will invest too much and it will be difficult to control.

"This year, we have selected some official land in Henan Prefecture to plant cotton. After the harvest, you have to pay to buy it, and then process it, and the court will buy it."

Li Longji suddenly mentioned an irrelevant matter. Henan Prefecture planted cotton, and there were many cotton seeds, so they planted more.

"Why not let the court process it in Lijiazhuangzi, and then pay the processing fee, so that the court can save money." Li Yi gave another model, processing on behalf of others.

He wanted to use a large number of sewing machines, so it would be better to take the court's work first.

"No, it's just to make you make money." Li Longji shook his head.
