I Use Idle Books To Become Saint

Chapter 50 What Is The Use Of This Fief?

According to the market in Zhongjing, the selling price of an ordinary adult is around 50 taels. If someone is skilled or has an outstanding appearance, the price will have to go up.

If you give money to sell yourself, the other party is a domestic servant. But domestic servants also have to give monthly cases. There have been tragedies in the past where the owner of the house squeezed too much, causing the servants to rebel and burn their furniture. Therefore, the Daxuan Law stipulates that anyone who buys a servant must pay no less than six taels of silver. That is to say, the legal salary is at least five cents a month.

According to Wang Li, there are at least 30 servants inside and outside the Earl's Mansion. Among them, those who clean, wash, cook, and take care of the flowers and plants in the backyard are indispensable. There must be some caretakers in the front yard, grooms and monitors, otherwise the Earl will lose face?

Furthermore, can the servants of the Earl's Mansion be compared with the servants of ordinary landlords and rich families? Naturally, they all have to have some status background, preferably those servants who are implicated by criminal officials and eunuchs, who can write and count, and teach all the rules in a decent way. How much do you think such a person is suitable?

What? One hundred taels? That's the base price, and it costs two hundred taels if you get it! Don't think it's too expensive, some people place orders in advance for the Department of Internal Affairs. Look at your face, you can join the team!

When people arrive in the mansion, everyone has to buy a few summer and winter clothes, right? Not to mention the monthly rules, there must be some rewards in the four seasons and eight festivals, and the master's family can't be too shabby, it's the face of the Earl's Mansion...

In Wan'an County, only Uncle Ping and Xiaohuan were the ones who actually reached the deed of selling their lives. The others were helpers. Therefore, the servants in Zhongjing City still have to recruit again. This is just the basic configuration.

I will live in the capital permanently in the future, so there must be some expenses for the welcome and delivery, and I must give some rewards when I go to the hook bar to listen to a song.

Besides, Chen Xuan is going to get married in the future, this dowry - bah bah bah, I don't want this!

Just say such a big house, if you don’t marry three wives and four concubines, who will live in these embroidery buildings and small courtyards!

They are all the faces of the Earl's Mansion!

The family has some savings, four to five thousand taels of revenue a year, but that is the result of Chen Xuan's personal management. If Chen Xuan leaves Wan'an, there may be no such amount.

Besides, they have all gone to the capital to become earls, and they are still spending money from the family in Wan'an County. Chen Luo feels conflicted in his heart.

You said that Wan'an County is Chen Luo's fiefdom, so how come there is no money? Chen Luo also thought so, but after asking Wang Li, he found out that the so-called fiefdom with real power is actually the three powers that own the fiefdom.

The right to appoint officials: Chen Luo can designate one person as the magistrate of Wan'an County on the list of alternate officials given by the Ministry of Civil Affairs for a term of three years. All promotion rewards and punishments are no different from other officials. This article seems to give high-ranking people a chance to interfere in the government. In fact, if you think about it carefully, even if there is no article, people with real status want to cultivate their own officials, or accept apprentices, marry or invest in advance, and there are plenty of means.

The right to build an army in the fiefdom: Chen Luo can establish a personal army in the fief Wan'an County. According to the regulations of the earl, the total number of troops can be up to 3,000. You can't go out of the fief without an edict, but there is a quota of 50 personal guards who can accompany you as guards. This one is tasteless to Chen Luo, why is he raising an army now? It's not about fighting for the world, even the fiefdom can't be released. Plan at most fifty personal guards that can be brought out.

Financial and taxation rights: One-tenth of the income tax of Wan'an County is handed over to the Qingzhou State Treasury, one-tenth is handed over to the Daxuan State Treasury, and the remaining 80% is all owned by Chen Luo!

This one seems to be able to solve Chen Luo's problem, but it is not. There is a dead line for fief titles, that is, luck cannot be lower than a standard. Once it falls below the standard set by the imperial court, the fief will be taken back and the title will be removed. But if luck cannot be low, then people's livelihood investment will not be saved.

According to Wang Li, most of the aristocrats with fiefs, in order to improve luck and win people's hearts, cut taxes to the point of insanity...

Then Chen Luo has a question, what do those fiefdom nobles rely on to make money?

Wang Li chuckled.

Some fiefs have special products, which can be developed; some fiefs are located on important traffic roads, and once the road cards are released, the road tax will be softened; Gloves, collect money for them, and when the luck is about to drop below the standard, there will be a wave of harvesting, which is open and aboveboard. It not only gathers wealth, but also improves the luck of the people...

One word, absolutely!

Chen Luo scratched his head, Wan'an County is like this?

specialty? No.

Location? There are about six roads that can bypass Wan'an County.

How about raising two black gloves? No, Chen Xuan probably beat herself to death!

Chen Luo sighed: What is the use of this fief!

Strictly speaking, based on the thinking of Chen Luo's previous life, it is not difficult to come up with an idea for the development of overall business characteristics. For example, invite great scholars to give lectures, invite Taoists to do practical things, and then come up with some weird legends and stories. Build a cultural tourism town and sell the land at a high price. If you can't do it, invest heavily to get a high-standard school out, and get a school district.

Chen Luo in his previous life had never eaten pork, but he had seen pigs run 800 times before, so he definitely could do it!

However, this plan requires investment in the early stage, and it takes time to get the money back.

It would be nice if there was a bank that would approve some loans.

How about borrowing it from Wei Yan?

Anyway, he is a senior, so it is not difficult to give Junior a little venture capital, right?

Chen Luo thought for a while, but shook his head to dismiss the idea.

Even though this is the world of Xianxia, ​​it is a feudal dynasty after all, and the population flow rate is too low. In the short term, there can indeed be substantial benefits, but in the long run, the burden will inevitably fall on the aborigines of Wan'an County.

At that time, luck will not go up.

What, you mean demolition? What a joke, these people can't accept high-rise apartments, and the whole county is so big, who wants to play two-for-one tricks with you.

The plan to make a fortune was stillborn!

...

The east has already revealed a layer of bright red, and the sun's rays wiped out the darkness covering the earth. Before he knew it, Chen Luo thought about it all night, but still had no rules.

It's a shame, as soon as I graduated from university in my previous life, I went to the mountainous area to work as a teaching teacher with lofty ideals. I was separated from the modern city for too long, and I couldn't think of a way to make money!

Fortunately, I have seen a lot of time-traveling, and I understand some local methods.

"The great man said that without investigation, there is no right to speak!" Chen Luo stood up from the roof.

"Go around the streets and find out the market." Chen Luo thought in his heart, "Although this is a world of immortals with all-powerful personal power, ordinary people always occupy the majority."

"Perhaps glass, perfume and other time-traveling weapons still have a huge market!"

"Especially the glass, I have made it with the children in the mountains."

Chen Luo was full of confidence, when suddenly a ray of light blinded his eyes, Chen Luo looked along and saw a few rows of tiles shining with the sun's brilliance on the roof of the nave.

When I climbed up yesterday because it was dark, I didn’t pay much attention to it. Now Chen Luo took a closer look——

This transparent tile installed on the roof as a daylight window, could it be...

Glass!
