Having just sent away the chief envoys from Huguang and Jiangxi, Wang Shouren came over in a hurry.
"What's up?"
Liu Jin looked at Lao Wang. He seemed to be really anxious. This is rare. You must know that Lao Wang has always been a very calm and collected person. Few things can make him panic. of.
"Please help me think of a way. If Jinling can't recruit workers anymore, thousands of factories of all sizes in Jinling will basically close down."
¡°I¡¯m so anxious that I¡¯m going everywhere to recruit workers, but no one is willing to come to work in Jinling. No matter what I say, it¡¯s useless.¡±
At this moment, Wang Shouren was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
No workers are willing to come to work in Jinling. Factories large and small in Jinling are facing a serious shortage of manpower. The investment in each factory is very large, ranging from tens of thousands of taels of silver to millions of taels of silver.
If you can¡¯t recruit people, such a huge amount of money will basically be wasted, and many people will face a huge crisis.
Of course, not only these factory owners and workshop owners are facing a huge crisis, Jinling is also facing a huge crisis.
¡°If these factories are unable to start operations, Jinling as a whole will fall into a rapid shrinkage. Factories will stop working, construction sites will stop working, and shops will close.¡±
¡°This year the entire Jinling¡¯s tax revenue and population will drop sharply, and urban development will suddenly come to a standstill.¡±
Wang Shouren was in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to take a sip of tea.
"Hurry up and help think of a solution. Jinling can't just fall down like this. It must be saved. This is the third largest city in the Ming Dynasty and is the center of gravity of Southern Zhili."
"What can I do? I can't force everyone to come to Jinling to work."
Liu Jin spread his hands helplessly and said.
In fact, at a larger level, it doesn¡¯t matter whether there are people in Nanjing or not. If the workers don¡¯t go to Nanjing, they will go back to places like Songhu, Suzhou, Yangzhou, and Hangzhou. They will go there anyway. Find a job to earn money to support your family.
The water still flows in the pond of Ming Dynasty, and it doesn¡¯t matter where it flows.
¡° If something like that happened last year, Nanjing should also receive the punishment it deserves. Everything has a cause and effect.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????? Now is not the future, the people of the future generations have no choice but to wrong themselves and make those capitalists successful, but it is different now, the people of the Ming Dynasty must wrong themselves.
If Nanjing is not happy, I will go to Songhu. If Songhu is not happy, I will go overseas. If it doesn¡¯t work, I will stay in my hometown. Anyway, the population is passing away in large numbers, and the contradiction between man and land has been greatly alleviated. There is plenty of land for you to grow.
Without pursuing too much, a family can live a life of sunrise and sunrise in their hometown. This is also the life of most people, and they can live a carefree life.
There is no need to feel wronged and suffer such grievances and pains.
"Alas~"
Hearing what Liu Jin said, Lao Wang sat down and sighed helplessly.
He knew that there was really nothing he could do now, and Nanjing could only do this.
"Okay, let's talk about things in Jiangnan."
"If this is done as soon as possible, I will return to the capital as soon as possible."
Looking at Lao Wang, Liu Jin said: "This Jiangnan is the stronghold of the conservative faction. They are always opposing our new policies and want to go back to the past."
"The things in Nanjing are still small things. If they are taken to the extreme, there may be bigger troubles. So we still have to think of ways to completely crack down on the conservatives in the Jiangnan area."
"You are from Zhejiang and have been an official here in Nanzhili for many years. Can you tell me what you think?"
"Clan power!"
Hearing what Liu Jin said, Wang Shouren said it without thinking.
¡°In the entire Jiangnan, including Zhejiang, and even in southern provinces such as Jiangxi, Huguang, Guangdong and Fujian, the clan power is much stronger than that in the north.¡±
¡°Often there are only a few people with big surnames in a township. In these places, if the king¡¯s law is greater than the clan law, the clan power will control everything in the place without the royal power going to the countryside.¡±
"Maybe in other places, due to poverty, although the clan power is strong, it cannot form a strong conservative force like here in Jiangnan."
¡°The Jiangnan area is a prosperous and prosperous place with abundant resources and people since ancient times. Therefore, a large clan often has the ability to build private schools and academies belonging to its own clan, and has the financial resources to build them.It is undoubtedly a huge and heavy blow to the clan forces on the other side.
In the city, people come from all over the world and are scattered. Whether they can become a clan force or not, whether they get along well or not has nothing to do with their own clan.
After leaving a large number of young and strong labor towns and rural areas, the clan power has been greatly weakened. In the past, every year, I had to do some events such as temple fairs to sing big dramas, gods, swimming bodhisattvas, cultivation, and ancestors.
But as a large number of young people went to the city to work, no one participated in these activities. In the end, it became more and more bleak and cold. The words of the elders in the clan no longer worked. Everyone was busy going to the city to make money and live their own small life. , who will care about you?
Clan power, which has existed for thousands of years, has disappeared in the new era. It no longer has any sense of existence and can no longer exert any great influence on society. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
