Start as Slave, The Eldest Lady Fell In Love With Me At First Sight

0423: People's Livelihood Issues In Hailan City.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

The carriage of Qiao Ji and others stopped at the city gate, and they turned into the Baita area on the left side of the city gate.

The Baita District is almost always a place where locals live, and a two-story stone brick building is a feature of Hailan City.

But it looks a bit dilapidated, and there is snow on every trail that has not been cleaned.

"My lord, the living environment in the White Tower District is a bit ordinary." Lei Nai scanned the surroundings and murmured.

"It is most likely that it is close to the sea, and the walls have been corroded by the sea wind for a long time." Qiao Ji took a look and guessed.

"There is such a saying?" Lei Nai was a little surprised.

"The buildings near the seaside almost have this problem, because the air will be more humid." Qiao Ji simply explained.

He can't bring out the theoretical knowledge from the other side of the earth, can he? This is still a bit difficult for the black cat girl and others to understand.

However, this also reminded Qiao Ji that he plans to write some books when he has time, so that Lei Nai and others can read more and broaden their eyes.

"Oh..." Lei Nai nodded half-understanding.

Qiao Ji stroked his chin with knuckle fingers, and said, "023 needs a renovation here."

"My lord, is it the courtyard of the Xili District of the new imperial capital?" Lian Xin said softly.

"There will be too few people who can live in that way, and you will know when the time comes." Qiao Ji shook his head.

He plans to carry out a major renovation in the future, gradually tearing down and rebuilding the houses in Hailan City. This is a big project.

"My lord, is the whole city going to be refurbished? Or just the White Tower area?" Fu Tai asked, flicking his fluffy cat's tail.

"Take your time, if the whole city is renovated, where will the people of Hailan City live?"

Qiao Ji said with a smile, "We need to rectify the shops on the main avenue first, let Takagi transport the goods from the imperial capital, and the cement is also very important."

How can there be no cement to renovate Hailan City? With cement, the city's renovation speed will be faster.

"Then I'll let the courier deliver the letter when I go back later." Lei Nai said immediately.

"Let Yao Yue bring the people from the Great Wall Chamber of Commerce over here again. With them here, we can rest assured of this renovation project." Qiao Ji added.

Ever since the little giant (acca) built the Yellow Crane Tower and the courtyard in Xili District, he has trusted Yao Er's ability very much.

The buildings built by Yao Yue and others are excellent and can perfectly present the content on Qiao Ji's drawings.

It just so happened that this time, people from the Great Wall Chamber of Commerce could stay in Hailan City to build the Yellow Crane Tower.

"Yes." Renee nodded.

Qiao Ji looked at the crowd of idle people in the streets and alleys, and frowned slightly, thinking.

He lightly tapped his lips with the hand holding his chin, thinking to himself, these people have nothing to do, so they have to arrange a job for them.

Lian Xin followed the Lord's line of sight and saw a group of young people on the street not far away.

Some of them squatted on the ground, some stood, looking bored.

"My lord, it seems that there are too many idlers." Lian Xin frowned.

Qiao Ji looked away slowly, and said calmly, "Well, I need to find something for them to do.

"The lord is going to introduce jobs to these people?" Lian Xin asked in surprise.

"When the reform of Hailan City begins, a large number of staff will be needed. I'm afraid there will not be enough of these people." Qiao Ji said with raised eyebrows.

Lian Xin hesitated, "Reform? It's hard to find a job."

"While renovating Hailan City, I plan to build some workshops by the way. The workshops will need more people."

With one hand behind her back, Qiao Ji said softly, "With a workshop, many people's employment problems can be solved."

"Employment problem?" Lian Xin heard this unfamiliar word for the first time.

She pushed her long orange hair behind her ears, and said with a smile, "Then they must thank the Lord.

Hu Er Niang thinks it is difficult to find a suitable job in Hailan City, what else can she do besides working as a handyman at the port or a porter?

Each shop is opened by some businessmen, they naturally let their relatives and friends go to work, and rarely have lovers outside.

"If we want Hailan City's economy to improve, our products alone are not enough, and the income of residents in the city must also be improved."

Qiao Ji patted Hu Erniang on the shoulder, and continued, "If their employment problem is not solved, a series of troubles will come to them."

"A series of troubles? My lord, will there be troubles if I don't work?" Lei Suo asked.

"If there's a lot of people out of work, they're going to start looting, stealing, etc."

Qiao Ji pinched the pretty face of the black cat girl, and explained, "If it's serious, you might even collude with some pirates.

This is not Qiao Ji's scaremongering. If he pushes people into a hurry, he may indeed go to extremes.

Cooperate with pirates to enter Hailan City to grab things, and they can get more things, which is also a good way for people without money.

"That's right, why didn't I think of this." Lei Naimosai patted his forehead suddenly.

"So the employment issue is very important, and it can make the environment of Hailan City better." Qiao Xing rubbed the head of the black cat girl and smiled.

In addition, it also solved the problem of Qiao Ji's shortage of people. After all, there are a lot of people needed at the grassroots level. It is impossible to bring everything back from the imperial capital, right?

"They can go to the workshop in the future, and the captured pirates will work as coolies, which solves two major problems at once." Lei Nai said happily.

Looking at the gray sky, Lian Xin suddenly lowered her head and said worriedly, "My lord, isn't it good to let them go to perfume workshops, paper workshops, etc.?"

Hu Erniang knows that these industries are one of the lord's trump cards, and it will be a huge loss if they are spread by some caring people.

There are a bunch of people coveting these things in the imperial capital, not to mention such a desolate place as Beigang.

If they know that perfume, white paper and pens are very profitable, they will not be honest.

Maybe he was bribed by some nobles and told about the production process of perfume and white paper.

"What Lian Xin said makes sense, it's better to transfer people from the imperial capital." Lei Nai echoed.

The lord's products are all first-class and good, which attracts the coveted eyes of many nobles in the imperial capital.

There are still some scruples in the imperial capital, and some people outside are very arrogant and domineering.
