Nodded, "Yes, we figured out a way."

"any solution?"

Sophia frowned and looked at He Anqi. She didn't think that He Anqi would agree with her method, but this was the best method that the royal family's think tanks came up with. "The most difficult time in winter is coming, and the amount of food is also increasing." A critical moment has come. We are not planning to distribute grain for free, but to sell the grain to big merchants, and then ask the big merchants to pay the traveling merchants in advance with the grain. In this way, the big merchants can start from the shantytowns Sufficient manpower has been summoned."

He Anqi understood, but this kind of government-business collusion made He Anqi very disgusted, "Then, what if the price offered by the big businessman can't support enough civilians in the shantytowns? Not everyone is capable of becoming a wandering businessman, and the rest Do you let them wait to die? And the treatment of traveling merchants is not good, won’t this cause resistance in the shantytowns?”

Sophia nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed possible to cause such a situation, so we have also made adjustments. First of all, we will let the big merchants unify the treatment of traveling merchants. This treatment will not be lower than that of rickshaw pullers. But at most it can only be equal, but the merchants still need to face the dangers outside, so it is estimated that there will not be many people who are willing, but if we force them to choose, then starve to death directly and may die unexpectedly later. If you choose between the two options, I believe that many people will still choose the latter option. Then for the remaining people, we will let them join various jobs. In fact, we are already doing this now. The Technician Guild is in A lot of work has been carried out this winter, and their manpower is far from enough. Some physical labor has been completely handed over to the civilians in the shantytowns, and their wages are enough to feed themselves and their relatives. Now the law and order in the shantytowns has improved. A lot. After that, we will let these people move, such as clearing the farmland. Now that there is no snow at this time, we will organize people to clear the snow on the farmland, and then clean up the shantytowns and level the land. Anyway, it’s just to find something to do when there is nothing to do, and it’s right not to let them take food for nothing. In this way, it should be able to solve the problem of traveling merchants to a certain extent, and at the same time solve the problem of surplus labor in shanty towns.”

He Anqi looked at Sophia in surprise, and said with a smile, "It's amazing, you guys have thought of so much."

Sophia rubbed her nose embarrassingly, "Actually, I learned from you. Many of your behaviors inspired us, and then I told the think tank some directions for thinking about problems, and this method came into being."

He Anqi nodded in surprise, "Yes, using labor instead of credit is my method, but what I do is still too petty, and I can only operate in a small area. If it is bigger, I will not be able to control it. Fortunately, You are smart, and you have put it into practice so quickly."

Sophia was a little happy. She could feel He Anqi's dissatisfaction with the royal family, nobles, and officials, but there was nothing she could do to make He Anqi change. However, this incident should have left a deep impression on He Anqi. The politics of this world are not so far away. Let He Anqi completely despair.

104. Distressed Technicians Guild

Although the royal family has already made preparations, this incident also sounded the alarm for He Anqi. Some things are not free to do whatever you want. After all, you are just an ordinary person, and you may be able to see some aspects, but look It is not comprehensive, any small matter, if the whole country is implementing it, it is definitely not a small matter.

After learning the lesson this time, He Anqi repeatedly told Sophia that if she finds any troubles in her order, she must tell her clearly in time, instead of silently planning behind her like this time and helping her correct her mistakes.

At first Sophia just agreed with a smile, but seeing He Anqi's serious look, she could only solemnly agree in the end.

As soon as the two finished talking, Alma came in with the food. Judging by the amount of food, Alma should have finished eating. I don't know if it was her own decision or Lisa helped her, but He Anqi didn't chase after her. The bottom line is that she just wants to train Alma, not to embarrass Alma.

Seeing that He Anqi was going to have dinner, Sophia thought that the matter had been settled, so she said goodbye and left.

After dinner, He Anqi sent Alma away, and sat alone in the study in a daze. Although Sophia said that she already had a solution, He Anqi still wanted to do her part. No matter what, the matter was caused by her .

But He Anqi analyzed it for a long time, but she couldn't find what else she could do.

The treatment of rickshaw pullers is much better than that of traveling merchants, and the value generated by the same number of rickshaw pullers and traveling merchants is even more vastly different.

In this world where transportation is inconvenient and there is no substitute for human resources, the operation of business requires a lot of cheap labor.

In the past, people in the shantytowns had no way out, and almost all the people with backbone became itinerant merchants. They could take risks and wanted to use their own strength to find a way out.

But now, people in shantytowns have more choices, better treatment, and a better future. Under such circumstances, how many people would be willing to fight with their lives?

The profession of wandering merchant is much more dangerous than mercenary.

Without cheap labor, commercial disruption is unavoidable. The royal family’s method can be said to be the most suitable method for the country at present, but it does not solve the problem fundamentally. It can even be said that it has been forced to buy to a certain extent Strong sell deal.

He Anqi didn't like this method very much, but this time, she didn't recklessly directly object or resist, because she knew that if there was no better way, then this method was the safest.

It's impossible to use one method to solve everyone's troubles, one can only choose a less harmful one, and as far as the current situation is concerned, this is already the best method He Anqi knows.

But He Anqi was just not reconciled, and she didn't help the trouble she caused, which made He Anqi very uncomfortable, and that kind of guilt made it difficult for her to sleep.

He Anqi hates her character very much, she knows how entangled she is.Every time someone says that women are contradictory, although He Anqi is a little unconvinced after hearing it, she never refute, because she herself is the most typical example.

She didn't consider things comprehensively, but looked forward and backward.The most terrible thing is that she is not like this about everything. Every time she makes some decisions recklessly, because at this time she has no idea of ​​the possible consequences in the future. This is the so-called fearlessness of the ignorant.

But when she was able to foresee some possible harm in the future, she would become anxious about gains and losses, hesitate, and become a severe patient of persecution paranoia.

But this is her, it doesn't mean that she can change if she doesn't like it or wants to change.

At this time, He Anqi became what she didn't like the most, entangled, extremely entangled, so entangled that she didn't know what to do, but she had to do it.

He Anqi smiled self-deprecatingly. Rather than saying that she was forced to die by her relatives, friends and society, it would be better to say that she was forced to death by herself.

He Anqi closed her eyes, leaned back on the seat, and suddenly felt a little powerless and lonely. This feeling was very familiar. Every time she suffered a setback, she would be anxious for a long time, and then she would have this feeling, She is used to it.

At this time, He Anqi would involuntarily think of some past events, just like the revolving lanterns she saw before she died, but her thoughts would always turn to some very strange places, and sometimes she couldn't even tell herself Know why you're thinking of this.

For example, at this time, she actually thought of her girlfriend whom she hadn't thought of for a long time.

He Anqi has never resented her. Sometimes she feels angry in her heart and feels that this woman's love for her is not love at all, but just a kind of vanity.But after she calmed down, she didn't think that way anymore, because He Anqi found that she didn't seem to love this so-called girlfriend much.

If what her girlfriend treats her is vanity, then she treats her girlfriend even more, maybe it's just an intentional attempt to fill the emptiness in her heart.

In the past, He Anqi felt that every day was like a pre-apocalyptic love, so presumptuous and unscrupulous.In the final analysis, it was because she had been lonely and depressed for too long. After she was out of control for the first time, she was like a wild horse that had run free, and she couldn't wait to release herself.

As a result, she paid the price for all this, and this price was beyond her own ability.

He Anqi didn't know why she thought of this woman, she was obviously disappointed, she had given up, she had decided to forget everything.

Why at this time, why in such a situation, do I think of her?

He Anqi couldn't find a reason, and couldn't stop her thoughts. All kinds of things from the past flooded into her brain, and many things happened in a flash. Most of them were just a fragment, a picture, like an old-fashioned silent movie. Playing fast, dazzling.

But many scenes are so unforgettable, even if what both parties feel may not be true love at all, when they are together, they really feel happy.

He Anqi remembered the two
