When Chen Jin was thinking about life in the factory, at the court level, because Chen Jin had learned a lesson, and everyone supported the establishment of a complete rest system.
Therefore, after nearly half a month of discussion and improvement, Ming Dynasty¡¯s first set of laws on the resting system was officially promulgated.
In the Jinluan Hall, Liu Jin held the latest "The Ming Dynasty Xiu Mu Code" in his hand, and spoke loudly to Emperor Hongzhi and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty about the main provisions of the Xiu Mu Code.
¡°Da Ming implemented a five-hour work system. The normal working hours every day are from a quarter of a hour in the morning to a quarter of a hour in the afternoon. If special work requires it, the time can be adjusted or shifts can be implemented.¡±
¡°Working hours other than five hours are overtime work, and overtime work should be given at two to ten times the normal working hours, and the total hours of overtime and normal working hours cannot exceed seven hours.¡±
¡°A seven-day day is defined as a week, with five days of working and two days of rest in each week. Normally, we work from Monday to Friday, and rest on Saturday and Sunday. Appropriate rotations can be carried out according to the situation.¡±
"Every year, the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and the Emperor's Birthday are statutory holidays. The Spring Festival holiday is a total of fifteen days, seven days before and seven days after the first day of the Lunar New Year."
"There are three days of holiday for each of the Lantern Festival, Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. There is a five-day holiday for the birthday of Emperor Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty. On statutory holidays, except for special departments and special circumstances, everyone in the Ming Dynasty will have a holiday."
(The Ming Dynasty was founded on the fourth day of the first lunar month, so there is no National Day when it is combined with the Spring Festival.)
Liu Jin¡¯s voice was very loud, and the sound was clearly transmitted to every corner of the hall.
Although the work of many ministers is actually very easy, just drinking tea and reading newspapers, at least they still have to come to work and clock in. They don¡¯t want to walk around or play.
It¡¯s different now. You can take two days off every five days. Two days are enough to walk around the Beijing-Tianjin area and Beizhili.
"If it's a statutory holiday, you can go to a farther place and take a look. This is something that many ministers have always wanted to do.
As for Emperor Hongzhi, he also had a smile on his face.
He actually wanted to go to the morning court later. He had been diligent in government affairs for more than ten years, but this did not mean that Emperor Hongzhi liked to get up very early to go to the morning court.
He is just diligent, but that doesn¡¯t mean he likes it.
After what happened last year, he was deeply aware of the importance of his body, so he changed his morning ritual. Maybe he postponed his morning ritual so that he could get more sleep and take some time to exercise in the morning.
"The country is important, but your body is more important. If you fall, the country is not someone else's."
Of course, he was really a good emperor. He loved the people like a son and treated his ministers well. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to change the early dynasty system and formulate the Xiu Mu system.
"If it were an emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Jin would definitely not dare to let go of a fart, and would postpone the morning court, let's just dream.
Zhu Yuanzhang wished that these officials would not have to take a day off at the end of the year. They would work at twelve o'clock every day. It was best not to even eat, so that the officials' salaries could be reduced even further.
Emperor Hongzhi is different. He is very generous and treats people well.
After the imperial court's finances improved, Liu Jin proposed to increase the salaries of officials, and Emperor Hongzhi readily agreed. Now he postponed morning court and took regular breaks, but Emperor Hongzhi still agreed.
From these we can see that Emperor Hongzhi was very generous.
¡°¡All factories, workshops, businesses, restaurants, teahouses, restaurants, etc. must strictly abide by the rest code, respect workers¡¯ right to rest, and provide workers with regular rest based on their actual business conditions.¡±
Soon, Liu Jin finished reading the main contents of the Xiu Mu Code. This Xiu Mu system was mainly formulated with reference to the system of later generations. Five days of work a week and two days of rest, plus statutory holidays and the like, combined with It will be formulated based on the actual situation here in Ming Dynasty.
"My dear friends, do you have anything else to add?"
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the ministers and asked.
"Your Majesty, this code of Xiu Mu is your Majesty's love for the people like your own son. Heaven's grace is so great that it benefits all people. I have already felt the emperor's grace and shed tears of gratitude!"
Liu Jian was the first to stand up and express his position on behalf of the ministers.
Well, the meaning is very simple??, this is still the life of an ordinary family.
In the past, you might not be able to save a few copper coins after working hard all your life. Marrying a wife only required three taels of silver. Now the couple only needs to go to the city to work, and food and accommodation are provided. By the end of the year, the couple can bring dozens of dollars with them. Two silver coins go back.
As for marrying a mother-in-law, the Ming Dynasty¡¯s mother-in-law is rising and has more and more demands. People here in Beizhili have already asked for a house in the Beijing-Tianjin area.
"But if you want to marry a Korean or Japanese woman, you basically don't need money. It's really not possible. You can also buy some female slaves from the Western Regions and Central Asia to come back as concubines.
Life has undergone earth-shaking changes. Now, the imperial court has issued a code of rest, which stipulates in the form of law that workers have the right to rest. They work for five days and rest for two days, and they can also take a few days off on holidays.
This made the old people couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh, while the young people celebrated excitedly. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
