Chapter 877 People's Heart, Your Majesty is Wise
The shopkeeper of the workshop pushed and shoved, Fangzheng said anxiously: "Hey, hey, old brother, why is it that business is not righteous, why do you drive away customers like this?"
The shopkeeper sneered: "I don't have time to mess around with you. I can't take your order. I have to go out to discuss business, so hurry up."
"Zhang Biao, hurry up and persuade the shopkeeper for me."
Fangzheng gave the order one by one, and Zhang Biao stood up.
Seeing Brother Biao's tall and generous figure, the shopkeeper was breathless: "What do you want to do? If you have something to say, talk about it."
As soon as Fangzheng took a step forward, he couldn't help but slapped four taels of silver in his palm: "What else can we do, of course it's about business, if you think about a way, just order those wooden boxes, I think four taels is quite fair. "
The shopkeeper looked at the money, then at Zhang Biao, wondering: "Indeed, but didn't I tell you that what you want is so urgent, it's because I don't have enough manpower here, unless I supply the work and materials, you can do it yourself."
"Then can I ask you guys to help?"
As soon as this remark came out, the shopkeeper actually smiled: "Hehe, just look for it, someone is willing to help you, I have no words! I won't tell you more, if you want to do it yourself, otherwise I can't help you." gone."
"Okay, I am willing. But you are not afraid of me stealing things?" Seeing that the shopkeeper really wanted to leave, Fang Zhengyi couldn't help asking.
"Dozens of my fellows are still afraid of you stealing things? See you later!"
The shopkeeper left, and Wang Erzhu said in a low voice, "Young Master Lu, it's not enough to just sell an apple. Are we really going to do it ourselves?"
Fangzheng smirked: "The yard is full of people, can we still do the work by ourselves? Let's go in."
.....
The courtyard is in full swing.
A strong man was bare-chested, tirelessly doing the carpentry work on hand.
Emperor Jing has been watching so intently.
At first, he wanted to see what kind of state the working people were in, but seeing him working inexplicably felt a sense of relief, and he was fascinated by it for a while.
This is probably the case for men, even if they are emperors, they cannot escape their instincts.
After being stared at for a long time, the man raised his head in embarrassment and said, "Old man, you've been looking at this for a long time, what are you looking at?"
Emperor Jing regained his composure and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, how dare I ask your surname? I'm here for the first time, and I want to know about the situation in Pingwan County."
The man kept talking, and said, "Wangui, my name is Liu Tieniu. Pingwan County is pretty good, much better than my hometown, but the prices are a bit higher than other places."
"That's right. I also found out when I came here. The price of goods here is not lower than that of the capital. How is the basic necessities of the people?"
Liu Tieniu thought for a while and said, "Yes, but there are poor ways to live, and expensive ways to live. If you want to eat cheap, there are also noodles for two or three pennies a bowl, and you will never be hungry."
"Like me doing this job, I also have food and housing included. Generally speaking, life is much better now than before!"
Emperor Jing was very happy.
At this time, Fang Zhengyi brought Wang Erzhu forward.
Seeing that Emperor Jing was inquiring about news with someone, he leaned forward.
Emperor Jing asked again: "Then what is the income if you find a job in a workshop in this city?"
"I am three or two a month, but others are not as tall as me. I can read and read!"
"I used to want to take the imperial examination, but I didn't pass it after thinking about it."
Fangzheng was in a mess when he heard it!
Good guy, you, a carpenter, get the same treatment as a reporter?
Now that salaries in the market have risen to this level, should we go back and give reporters a little more?But not so long ago....
Wang Erzhu's eyes stared straight: "Three liang! My God... this money is too easy to earn! That brother, are you so upset?"
Liu Tieniu cast a sideways glance at the newly-emerged earth dog, and said displeasedly, "It's easy to make money? Sometimes I work seven or eight hours a day, and I'm so exhausted."
"Don't look at how much you earn, just be happy for two or three months, after that you will get bored."
"My mother sometimes doesn't know why I am alive. Maybe the meaning of life is to make wheels..."
Seeing his emotion, Fang Zhengyi vaguely saw the philosopher hidden among the people.
No wonder the salary is high, which is indeed superior.
Emperor Jing comforted: "You have also read the book. The sages say that if you suffer from pain, you will get better in the future."
"Saint? A saint loves to talk nonsense, let him try to work with me for a month!?"
Pretentious!Can making wheels be more tiring than farming?
Wang Erzhu curled his lips secretly: "It's not good, why don't you leave, and no one cares about farming when you go home."
Liu Tieniu fiddled with the wheel: "I won't leave."
"Hey, don't you contradict yourself?"
"What are the contradictions? The yard is full of people. You ask around, and you can't answer even if you ask, and you won't leave even if you ask."
"To put it bluntly, isn't there a way to live here? My hometown is poor, but there are more opportunities to make money in Pingwan County."
Fangzheng interjected: "In the final analysis, is it because the emperor is wise that we can live a good life today?!"
Liu Tieniu was not surprised when he said such a sentence suddenly, he smacked his lips in agreement, "That's not it!"
"Without the emperor, how would we be today? This day is getting better and better every day. We were born at a good time!"
"In the past, I just guarded the one-acre three-point land at home. I was poor. I changed my pants and my father's. It's not like now..."
"There is also Jin Yiwei Commander Fang Zhengyi, you know, he is also a very good official, Pingwan County can be like this now, but Jin Yiwei..."
Emperor Jing was already ecstatic in his heart, he pinched his thigh desperately, and kept his composure.
But listening to him talk about how life is getting better day by day, Wang Erzhu feels sad and envious.
Everyone is human, why is he doing so well, why am I getting worse and worse?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help muttering: "You are not wise, so be it."
Unexpectedly, this sentence was heard by Liu Tieniu, he stood up abruptly, pointed at Wang Erzhu's nose and said angrily: "How are you talking? Dare to say that Your Majesty is not wise!"
When he yelled like this, everyone in the yard heard him, and they all stopped their work.
He looked at Wang Erzhu covetously.
Wang Erzhu's hairs all sprang up, and he rushed behind Emperor Jing, and said timidly: "I didn't say that Your Majesty is not wise, so don't talk nonsense!"
Emperor Jing couldn't laugh or cry in his heart.
Liu Tieniu sat down slowly and continued to work, and said angrily, "I'm sorry you don't dare! There is no one in this city who doesn't read His Majesty's books. Although everyone has never read anything, they are still human beings." Gotta understand."
"The brothers here are all from poor backgrounds. It turned out that they couldn't eat meat twice a year, and they were all as thin as ribs. Some families didn't even dare to raise more children."
"But what about now? Although the work is more tiring, you can earn more, and the whole family can eat and wear warm clothes. You don't have to eat your last meal like before. I don't think you are a rich man." People, don't you know how difficult the world is?"
"The officials of the Pingwan County Government, as well as the Jinyiwei, all said that His Majesty is going to make great efforts to change things starting from Pingwan County. Who can we rely on to have a day like today? Isn't it up to Your Majesty?! Who dares to say that His Majesty is not!"
As Liu Tieniu spoke, many workers' eyes turned red, and they lowered their heads deeply and continued to work.
This scene shocked Emperor Jing, feeling a little sad in his heart.
This is the true will of the people, without any impurities.He was not wearing a dragon robe, and was not accompanied by his ministers.
How many emperors in ancient and modern times can be a common people?
But when he changed his mind, he thought of Wang Erzhu behind him.
I don't know how many people like this there are in the world, and another feeling is added to my heart.
Seeing Liu Tieniu finished speaking, although Wang Erzhu felt ashamed, he still boldly asked: "Brother, are you still recruiting?"
Three or two a month, he also wants to do it.
Don't go home, just make wheels here!
Liu Tieniu glanced at him and shook his head: "No, you can't do it, you're too old, we don't want you over 35 years old."
