Chapter 606: Reluctant to let go of the child but unable to trap the wolf
There are many people in Beishui City who work very hard to make a living. If they just walk farther, they can get double the wages. As long as safety is guaranteed, who would be unwilling to do it?
Liu Bai was the first one to receive Song Qingci's letter. After receiving the letter, he immediately asked someone to handle the matter.
This can also be regarded as solving the difficulties faced by Beishui City.
How could he not support it?
After the staff arrived one after another, they realized that in order to ensure the timeliness of the project, the entire project would not stop for a whole day. However, each person only needed to work for six hours a day. When the time was up, someone would naturally come to take over your shift.
They had never seen such a scene before.
Moreover, they originally thought that the two meals provided would only be a steamed bun with mixed flour for each meal. However, they did not expect this.
There is actually a newly built canteen here, which can accommodate three or four hundred people to eat at the same time.
Everyone can get two meal tickets before going to work every day. When it is time to eat, they just need to take the meal tickets to the canteen to exchange them.
Every meal has vegetables, meat, and soup. The staple food is also varied. If you like steamed buns, you can eat steamed buns, and if you want to eat rice, you can eat rice.
And there are no restrictions, you can eat until you are full, but you cannot have leftovers or take away.
This immediately put a damper on the workers who have been at the bottom of society for years.
I have lived for decades and have never seen such a scene.
Not only them, even Murong Cong was shocked.
Some of Dayan's other officials returned to Jinwu City to report, while others needed to stay and participate in the construction. Murong Cong did not leave because he needed Song Qingci's antidote, and secondly, he was really curious about what this woman could accomplish.
Sure enough, it was right to stay.
His three perspectives were completely reshaped.
He is not as wary of Song Qingci as before.
On the premise of equal interests, his life and property can be guaranteed to be safe.
"Princess Anguo, aren't you afraid of losing money by doing this? The initial investment will require a lot of money."
Murong Cong couldn't help but ask.
The two of them are now inspecting the progress of the project together.
Looking at the cafeteria that was basically never busy, he was really shocked beyond words.
There are currently thousands of workers here, and the canteen can only accommodate a few hundred people eating at the same time, so the workers are divided into different batches and their meal times are staggered.
This means that the people in charge of the canteen need to be busy all the time. However, unlike the workers who work in two shifts, the canteen staff work in three shifts, and each shift only needs to work for four hours.
"Your Highness, there is a saying in Dachen. Have you heard of it?"
"Appreciate further details."
"I'm reluctant to let the child catch the wolf."
"..." Murong Cong looked at Song Qingci speechlessly, obviously thinking that these words were too vulgar and should not come from the mouth of a princess of a country.
Song Qingci ignored his expression and continued, "Everything we are doing now is the basis for the trade. Without good infrastructure, how can we talk about future development?"
"Your Highness, look at these people." Song Qingci pointed at the people who were tamping the foundation in the distance. "They are all working hard in the dusty environment. There are not only people from Dachen but also people from Dayan. They are all the lowest class of people. All they want is to have enough food and clothes. But even with such a wish, a large number of them cannot achieve it. Your Highness, don't you feel a little bit sorry for deducting the remuneration and treatment that these people deserve?"
