Chapter 81 Merit
Everyone was flustered and angry, venting their anger blindly, but no one could come up with any ideas.
In peace and contentment, people only know how to farm and work every day, how can they expect to achieve such depth.
Li Yi now revealed all the potential problems one by one, and the hidden dangers were immediately exposed in front of his eyes.
Everyone felt their minds shaken and couldn't help but worry about the future. At the moment, everyone looked directly at Li Yi, waiting for him to come up with a solution.
It was dark for a while, and the villagers all straightened their waists and listened carefully to Li Yi's words.
The old patriarch looked at the chaotic scene and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
Although the people of Anxin are large in number and huddle together, there are still too few people who know the truth and know how to plan. Fortunately, Li Yi gave a lot of guidance and was thinking positively. If it had been anyone else, I am afraid that everyone in Anxin would have been in danger.
, just think of yourself as a lamb to be slaughtered.
Li Yi had already made plans in his mind, and he said loudly: "Nowadays, there are not only treacherous people plotting against us, but also catastrophic disasters are coming. You also know that there are many bandits in the Taihang Mountains, and they can number tens of thousands.
Everyone. Nowadays, the government agencies are organizing to suppress bandits, but they rely on the incompetent guardsmen, who are personally commanded by the governor. I have met the governor many times and know that he is not knowledgeable in military affairs. If the two are combined, it will be difficult to win this battle.
. On the other hand, the bandits are gathering and roaring towards us, but they are getting out of hand. Even if we can survive this time safely, how can we deal with the swarms of bandits and the arrogance of bandits in the future?"
"Everyone knows the intention of what I said today. Nowadays, the world is in ruins and chaos is everywhere. If we want to live in peace, we must plan diligently, build high walls and deep trenches, train soldiers, and have children.
This is the place where my husband and my son will be raised. I have sketched out the detailed plan and posted it on the notice board. You can check it out later."
Li Yi drew what he wanted early on and posted it for everyone to see. Although the villagers were illiterate, they could still read the sketch.
The project was divided into three phases and took one and a half years to complete.
Everyone knew this, but they still didn’t know where the money and food came from. At this point, some people started asking loudly.
Li Yi nodded and said: "This time the money and food will be withdrawn from the public treasury."
Public treasury? Everyone was making a noise, and some people asked about everyone's concerns and asked what would happen if the public treasury was exhausted.
Li Yi added: "When the public treasury is exhausted, it will be open to the public. I will find a way to provide all the necessary materials. As long as everyone is willing to work hard, Yi will be a mess. Even if he sells his flesh and blood, he will earn a new town for everyone."
.”
These words he said were as sonorous and powerful as the sound of thunder, which shocked everyone.
The old patriarch was also gritting his teeth and secretly annoyed.
The amount of money and food needed to build the new town is not a small amount. Shitou has taken care of everything, but he has to shoulder the burden...
Li Yi has a high prestige in Anxin. As soon as he said this, everyone relaxed. They thought that he had a plan in mind and had a way to build the town that no one knew about.
The discussion gradually died down, and the people all nodded in agreement, saying that as long as it was feasible, they would devote all their energy.
After saying this, Li Yi relaxed. He looked at everyone and felt that his shoulders were sore, but there was an invisible mountain pressing on him. But where his heart was, he couldn't be tired.
The people thought that nothing happened, so they all whispered to each other and left. Unexpectedly, Li Yi shouted loudly for everyone to return.
Everyone was puzzled and looked at Li Yi doubtfully.
Li Yi smiled and said: "There is one more important thing to discuss with everyone, but this is the right time."
A fellow villager said: "If you have anything to say, my dear benefactor, just say it and we will listen patiently."
The others all agreed.
Li Yi said: "Now we all have food to eat, and work to do more. This is the reason why we are at ease and poor. Some people say that everyone works hard, but there are many people who have the power to do it, and there are people with less power who can't stand it. But with food, Some people eat a lot, and some people eat a little less. Although everyone contributes, there is a slight imbalance between cause and effect. I think that in this case, why not just talk about work and food, but also divide the work into Level 369, there is a way to work more and get more, and to work less and get less."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone suddenly felt like a pot was exploding.
People don't hate poverty, but they hate injustice.
Some Anxin villagers are very capable and can do half as much work as others every day, while some are weak and unable to do much work.
Everyone sees these cases, but doesn't criticize them much.
Just because everyone, including Li Yi and the old patriarch, are emphasizing the concept of An Xin's family. Subtly and unconsciously, the big furniture has an emotional connection, sharing weal and woe, and cannot abandon those who are physically weak for this.
However, the refugees in Anxin come from many sources, and some have ulterior motives. It is inevitable that sneaky people will sneak in.
Although the vast majority of people worked hard to build this hard-won home, these people did not work hard. They pretended to be hardworking in front of others, but they did not work very hard. They usually shirk a lot and refuse to do things.
Many people knew about this phenomenon, and the old patriarch also knew about it. After learning about it, he quickly told Li Yi that it was just that the Black Panther raid was too important, and Li Yi did not interfere too much.
Now, it's time to set some rules.
Li Yi continued: "My method is to have a merit system that records the amount of effort, that is, to record what work each family does every day, how much merit they should receive, and how much food they receive."
"From today on, every ten households will have one Bao, and a Bao chief will be appointed. The Bao chief will be rotated every year, and one person will be selected by each household that year, regardless of male or female. Anyone who is unwilling to serve can be selected by the next household. .The Bao Chang is the person who manages ten households. His duties are to deliver news, check for thieves, maintain peace within the Bao, and organize each household to participate in matters."
"In a few days, we will divide the land for everyone. According to the population, everyone over the age of fourteen can get the land. As for the construction of the new town and other matters, as long as they are matters of public opinion and implementation, everyone in each household can participate. .As long as you are willing to put in the effort, everyone can achieve merit according to the amount of labor they put in."
Speaking of this, Li Yi paused slightly.
A fellow villager said: "Little benefactor, can we gain merit by cultivating our own fields?"
Another person also asked anxiously: "Little benefactor, you have mentioned merits five times and three times. What are the uses of merits? And how to count and use them? We don't understand what I heard. Please explain it in detail. .”
