Space Fisherwoman: Going fishing in the sea and getting rich
Chapter 740: Everything Should Be Clear
Luo Lingying and He Yong looked at each other, and their faces were both distorted.
Doesn't this make things convenient for those who work for the Song family?
Considering the income of those people, it is easy for them to take out three taels of silver.
Ji Sheng said a few more words and then asked the villagers to register themselves.
Just as he sat down, he continued, "The village has records of every household in your village. Those who meet the requirements must come to register. Otherwise, if you are found out, you will be exiled to the frontier at the very least, or beheaded at the worst. Think it over carefully, everyone."
When he heard that he was going to be beheaded, the cunning man immediately became obedient.
What happened here had nothing to do with Song Chuman, so she didn't waste any time and planned to go to the beach.
A man suddenly ran in front of Song Chuman and asked anxiously: "Ah Man, if we all go to serve, we won't be able to do your work. We don't know how long it will take to repair the road. I wonder if you can keep our position? We don't want to go back to the hard life we had before when we come back from serving."
Song Chuman stopped and looked around. Many people were looking at her.
Song Hexiu remembered the man in front of him. Several of his brothers worked for him. "If the whole family pools their money together, they should be able to come up with the money for the corvée of three taels of silver."
Song Chuman also looked at those people.
As long as one is a normal person, he should be able to figure it out and find that it is more profitable to continue working for the Song family.
Especially for those with weak bodies, after serving labor service, they would probably lose half their lives and need to recuperate for several months.
If the time spent on corvée service plus the time spent on recuperation were used to make money, one could probably earn dozens of taels of silver without having to take care of one's health.
The man touched his head awkwardly. "My brother and I can make money from you, but we can't even take out one tael of silver. When there was no work at home, we borrowed a lot of money from relatives and friends to survive. After my brother and I made money, we paid off our debts first. Now we still have two taels of silver to pay back, and we really can't take out three taels of silver."
Many people also spoke up:
"I couldn't afford it either, so I used it all to nourish my family members."
"All the money I earned was used to treat my family members' illnesses."
"All the money I earned was used to buy meat and new clothes for my family."
"The money I earned was used to support my brother's education."
"All the money I earned was taken away by my family and used for gambling."
"My father lent mine to a relative for emergency."
……
Song Chuman frowned. It seemed that the situation in the village was not as optimistic as she had imagined.
Song Hexiu said: "Aman, corvée labor is really exhausting, why don't you help them."
Xiao Xuanli raised his eyebrows, it seemed that they were going to go against him.
Song Chuman nodded and looked at Xiao Xuanli, "If there are fewer people doing corvée service in our village, will it affect the road we are going to build?"
Xiao Xuanli said: "Don't worry, it won't have too much of an impact. The court has plans for the roads to be built. If it is found that the construction period is longer than planned, more people will be recruited. If no one can be found for various reasons, they will spend money to find more people to participate."
Song Chuman asked curiously, "Who will pay for that?"
Xiao Xuanli said: "Of course it is the rich and powerful who will pay. We can't let the common people pay. There are many rich and powerful families in the capital. They make so much money. If every family can get a little money out of their pockets, it will be enough."
The corner of Song Chuman's mouth twitched. As expected, whether in the previous life or here, rich people have to build bridges and roads.
