Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe didn't think there was anything wrong with them, they were still thinking that it was because of their good vision and good luck that they didn't pick people who cheated and enriched their own pockets.In fact, when it comes to these two points, the two of them do possess both, but no matter how good their vision and luck are, it is impossible for everyone to be loyal to them.

This point, not only Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe, I am afraid that no one in this world has such ability.

The reason for this is mainly because Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe's body gene levels are one level higher than the others', and just one level creates suppression.With the passage of time, this invisible coercion has become more and more obvious.People of equal status may not feel it themselves, but they will also unconsciously relax the conditions when discussing things.The feelings of servants and hired workers are more obvious. As long as their senses are sharp enough, they can perceive them vaguely.

People have the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, which is why it is difficult for the servants of the Shen family to have two minds.Subconsciously, they felt that the two masters of the Shen family were not to be trifled with. If the benefits were not to a certain extent, they would not be able to betray the master.

"Tianlin, Linshan County is not big, and there are not many people who can get it in the market. Even if you add beggars, the number may not be enough. Should we go to other counties to recruit people, or follow the previous plan to visit various villages? "Shen Jiahe frowned slightly. Although he and Fang Tianlin had expected it, they didn't expect the local gentry to react so quickly. As soon as they took action, the other party cut off the sign from the source.

In the world, lonely and single-family households are only a minority after all, and most of them are close relatives and distant relatives, with prosperous descendants, and even a village can talk about relatives.With so much encumbrance, relatives wouldn't let them go even if they wanted to.It is estimated that after the introduction of this policy by landlords and wealthy households, countless pairs of eyes will stare at those who are interested, or those who have not registered with the Shen family at all. The most annoying thing is that these people who are followed are their relatives .

I'm afraid that the Shen family is the most hated by the villagers of Linshan County. After the Shen family enters the village, they may be kicked out.

Fang Tianlin thought for a while, and said, "Don't move for now, and we will make plans after sending people and supplies into the barren valley."

Shen Jiahe has no objection, this way they will be much less burdened and it will be more convenient to act.

There are many large and small villages in Linshan County, and many of them live in mountain nests. If you really want to look for them, you can always find them.Moreover, Linshan County was only incorporated into the national territory during the previous dynasty, and there are still a large number of mountain people living in the high mountains, that is, the real aborigines.Although the two sides have exchanges with each other, it is still peaceful, but there are frictions from time to time.

This also means that the officials and wealthy gentry in Linshan County do not have much control over the people in the mountains and forests, and the government does not even have an exact number of people living in the mountains.

Speaking of this, it is embarrassing.

Anyone who is well-informed knows that the number of people registered in the county government is far less than the actual population.It is not difficult to understand that they did this just to avoid the population tax.Especially in a poor and remote place like Linshan County, no one cares about these things, as much as they report, even the higher-ups will not send people to Shangadari to check.

After all, tax evasion by the people is limited, and the most rampant ones are those local gentry.Not only did they evade population tax, but they also evaded land tax. They lied about the number of acres of land, recorded high-grade fields as middle-grade fields, and even directly classified them as low-grade fields... In this way, there are various methods of tax evasion.

The common people and the country gentry are originally opposite parties, but only on this point, they stand together, while the county government is on the opposite side.

Many tax evasion methods make the county government funds often stretched.If enough taxes are not collected, the operation of the county government will stagnate.Mo Baisong, the county magistrate, is worried about this matter every year. After all, no one wants to be a bare-bones commander, right?Coupled with the fact that the local officials dragged him down from time to time, he was a little bit better than those county magistrates who were completely emptied of power. It was really just a little bit better. If he didn't work hard, he might be confessed as a mascot .

Earlier, Mozhi County had thought about dredging up and transferring away from this place where local forces were rampant, but then he stopped thinking about it.He was born in a poor boy, and he was lucky enough to be able to earn a job as a county magistrate. If he wanted to go further, it would be extremely difficult.

It's not that he hasn't tried it, he has done everything he should do, but the local power is too strong, so he can't do anything, can he?When he first came, he couldn't speak well, which is normal. Unless the background is tough, most new officials are like this, but after working hard for a long time, he still regrets not being able to move a little, which is unreasonable.It can only show that this place is too remote, the government's control is extremely weak, and the county government doesn't say it's optional, it's not much different from a decoration.

Originally, according to the rules, the county magistrate can only be re-elected once at most, that is to say, no matter whether he is promoted or promoted after six years, he should always be moved.Mozhi County had also hoped for this before, but now he has given up this hope, and he is afraid that he will die of old age in office.

Mo Baisong had been the magistrate of Linshan County for ten years, seeing no hope of being transferred, so he brought his family here to live with peace of mind.In Linshan County, no matter how you say it, he is still a person with some power in his hands, and the possibility of being criticized is very small. Compared with being a husband in his hometown, being a farmer is much better.

Although he was unwilling, but after so many years, he had almost been smoothed out. Apart from slowly developing his own power, Mozhi County was really powerless.

This is also thanks to Mo Baisong's magnanimity, he didn't do everything possible to win over the power, otherwise, it is unknown whether he will survive or not.The more remote the place, the weaker the imperial court's control ability, the faster the magistrates will be replaced. Some of them voluntarily retire from illness, and some don't. It's really a mess.

Could it be that the imperial court really doesn't know the tricks in it?Obviously not, except for some officials who are ignorant of the suffering of the people and grew up in the nest of wealth, everyone else knows it well.But most of them are busy fighting for power and profit, and have no time to take these things into consideration. Occasionally, some officials suggested that it was in line with the competitors' wishes, and they directly suggested that Shangfeng send the family members of the proposers to take up positions in these places.This alone can make everyone shut up about this matter.

Fang Tianlin thought about the possibility of cooperating with the county magistrate, but gave up after a second thought.It was too hasty to come out this time. It is better not to act rashly before thoroughly understanding the distribution of forces in Linshan County.

After Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe reached an agreement, they put aside the troubles encountered in the labor market. The matter has come to this point, and if they use their brains on it, they will not be able to change the current situation. It is better to focus on other places.

After another meeting, Wen Guanshi brought back a group of people, about twenty or so.

"Tuk Tuk."

"Come in."

Wen Guanshi: "You two masters, I brought him back and settled him in the Datong shop downstairs."

"Jiahe, shall we go and have a look?" Fang Tianlin looked at Shen Jiahe with a sideways smile.

"Okay." Shen Jiahe agreed happily.

This time, the most important purpose of Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe was to recruit people, and everything else came second.No one, unless Fang Tianlin can produce a bunch of robots, the development of Huanggu will become extremely slow.Fang Tianlin had thought about this a long time ago. The problem is that it is so easy to make a robot. He and the children have used up all the remaining bio-force field energy, and they can't make a few.After much deliberation, it is still the most cost-effective to find someone to do things step by step.

Judging from the current situation, they can get back 200 people at most, which is obviously far from enough.It is precisely because of this that Fang Tianlin turned his ideas on the villagers.If you search village by village, you can always get more, especially those people who live in the mountains. The whole family is persuaded by them, and it is not impossible to work for the Shen family.

Of course, this is the most ideal situation, Fang Tianlin doesn't think that any family will really do this.If it weren't for the fact that life is hard to live on, not many people are willing to leave their homeland, let alone the whole family.

The Datong bunk needs to be entered through the side door. Fang Tianlin went in and took a look. The condition was very poor. There were bunk beds on both sides of the room, which were connected together. There were only a few load-bearing wooden pillars in between. No, there is an aisle left in the middle.

This is where some laborers who are looking for work in the city live for a short time.Datongpu did not charge protection fees, they were all reduced to living in Datongpu, how much money could they squeeze out?No one will rob them, and besides, most of the people who will live here are locals, and they will try to avoid fishing in the dry marshes.Drive people to a dead end, who will do things for them in the future?

Foreigners are different, they slaughter as soon as they can, and they have to do everything possible to peel off a layer of skin if they can't.

This room has obviously been cleaned. For example, the two rooms Tianlin saw with his eyes when passing by are cleaner, at least there is no unpleasant smell.

"Everyone is here?" Fang Tianlin estimated that there are at most twenty people here.

"Well, that's all the qualified ones." Wen Guanshi thought to himself, if the main family didn't have so many qualifications, they would be able to find more people, at least doubling the number of people would not be a problem.

But at most, that's it. Linshan County has no large-scale workshops, no large-scale mines, and there is even only one quarry.The landlords and gentry here are quite far-sighted. Although they try their best to make money, they are not too harsh. As long as the people are not plagued by natural disasters or diseases, they can work hard to maintain their lives.

On this point, Wen Guanshi was extremely impressed.This is difficult to do in other affluent places, and he has not heard or seen too many things about burning forests and hunting.

It is also because of this that there are a lot of idle labor looking for work, but few are sold as slaves. There are dozens of people, which is the result of long-term accumulation in Linshan County.Of course, those who are taken to other places by Ren Yazi will be counted separately.At any time, there are people who are mercenary. If you have money to make, what is it to take a little risk?What's more, Linshan County's population flow is not large, and there are rich local families watching, Ren Yazi may not be able to do a few long-distance business trips a year.

If the population kept flowing out, Renyazi would have been banned by the local gentry long ago.Every time they traveled far, they would bring in some high-quality servants and servants when they returned. These people were very popular with the landlords and gentry.

In the end, the local gentry and wealthy households simply took most of the people in their own hands to meet their respective needs.
