"You are in charge, you are crazy. What kind of stall should you buy?" His wife said anxiously.

"Come with me to Dong'anmen, and recruit manure workers there. Because of this job, I'm still tired and I'm paying more. I'm giving you five cents of silver a month. What other benefits are there? One person a year and I'm also given four sets of clothes made of labor cloth. I'm also given thirty kilograms of cornmeal and salt a month."

"What, I heard it right." His wife said in disbelief.

"I can't make a mistake. I've started recruiting people. There are people who are rushing to the royal business."

Wang Zhuer said: "It was a joint business between Mrs. Dingyuan Hou and the Empress. Men and women, as long as they are over fifteen or under fifty, can go to the interview. I plan to apply for a toilet repair in the engineering team. Because it is an engineering job, I will give you six cents of silver a month. You can work as a manure picker, drive a donkey cart to pull manure, and give you five cents of silver a month."

"Everyone has 30 kilograms of cornmeal every month. If you mix some wild vegetables, it's enough for the family to chew grain. All the money can be saved. The four sets of work clothes I give each year can be worn by parents and children the next year. This is another big money. If you don't go there quickly, you won't be as hot as you eat shit."

His family was pulled by him and followed him to Dong'anmen in a daze.

"Tell you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As mentioned above, this is a royal business. I have been working for more than three years and have a registration in Wanping County. If we can settle in the inner city of the capital, we will become people in the capital. We can also apply for grain funds." Wang Zhuer said excitedly.

"What? The household registration can be settled in Wanping City. If we settled in Beijing, we can also go to the supermarket to buy three kilograms of corn. There are also affordable fat pork and soybean oil every month, and there are also affordable cloth tickets for one person three feet five every year." His family was almost confused and murmured.

"This is possible, so we have to go quickly. Don't go too late, there are enough people."

There is a line in Mr. Lao She's "Teahouse", "However, even a dog has to be born in the capital." Since ancient times, the household registration in the capital has been rare.

This is not an ordinary household registration book, it contains various benefits.

To put it simply, the mutton here is from Inner Mongolia and it is not stinky at all.

All dynasties, the supply of the imperial capital was the best supplies in the country.

Today, there are only one and a half million registered people in this capital city. One-third of these people are military households, mainly composed of the Beijing camp and its families.

There are more than 400,000 soldiers on the Beijing camp, but in fact, how many people have always been a metaphysical question.

The remaining one-third are officials and families, nobles, eunuchs, etc.

The remaining one-third of the people serve these two types of people. These people must have some auxiliary personnel.

After Yang Fan came to the late Ming Dynasty, the greatest benefit he brought to the people was mainly reflected in the capital.

That is, to handle grain according to household registration and supply daily necessities with tickets.

There are five types of grain stamps in the grain book: rice, millet, corn, flour and soybean. They are all like stamps, with serrated teeth and can be torn off. Selling grain not only costs money, but also depends on various tickets in quantity.

The grain capital has a fixed quota per month according to the month.

A ticket can buy special prices, affordable prices, preferential prices, etc. for every person in the family. In particular, each person can buy two taels of fat pork, two taels of vegetable oil, and half a pound of salted fish a month. The most enviable.

In terms of grain, rice is old rice, each person has half a kilogram of millet, one kilogram of flour, and one kilogram of soybeans. The reason why soybeans are provided is that people do not eat meat and must also provide plant protein.

Soybeans can be fried as snacks and supplemented with plant protein. They can also be used to change soybean oil and tofu.

The biggest benefit of the grain book to the lower-class people in the capital is that one person can buy 30 kilograms of cornmeal with a grain coupon, and three kilograms per cent.

This has been sold for more than three years and has never risen.

Only before Jiannu besieged the city, he let go of the purchase quantity in advance and no tickets were required. Then he stopped for a while.

Other times, the supply has been stable.

In addition, two taels of fat and two taels of vegetable oil per person per month are the only source of fat that these poor people may obtain. Every morning when they cook wild vegetable porridge, they will add a little vegetable oil to let the whole family get some oil.

Salted fish represent precious salt.

The price of salt in the Ming Dynasty was so scary that the people at the bottom could not afford it.

Dingyuan Hou Tianjin Ocean Fishing Boats received a large number of fishing catches. High-value seafood was supplied to the imperial palaces, royal families, major restaurants and the residences of civil and military officials in the capital. Mid-grade ones were sold on the market. Low-grade ones were made into canned food.

The worst fish are marinated into salted fish and then dried. Now, salted fish and salted dried kelp are important forms for people in the capital and the lower classes to obtain salt.

Because these two are very cheap. Salted fish requires tickets, while kelp is not limited to purchase.

Because Yang Fan has his own salt field, he used the coarse salt residue left over from the refined salt to pickle salted fish and kelp. This thing is very fishy and not delicious.

However, this thing is cheap. You can buy half a pound of salted fish for five cents. It can make people suffocate.

When people make porridge in the morning, they use a board to wipe some salted fish powder into the pot, so that the whole family can eat salt. Save the money, one fish will be enough for a month.

This is equivalent to selling private salt in disguise, but no one dares to care about it. The salt merchants' eyes turned red with anger.

Wang Zhuer's family is essentially a refugee.

In this era, poor families were not ordinary people. They were compared to what the high gentry said. The poor families were the big landlord class, and the class lower than the gentry.

Those who can be called wooden doors are all small landlords with houses and land.

As for the lower class, those who have no land are called refugees, abbreviated as remnants. Those who have no real estate (mainly refer to houses), abbreviated as remnants.

Therefore, Wang Zhuer's family is actually a blind wanderer.

They even have rural household registration. Now they have a chance to obtain a Beijing household registration, and their eyes are red. Because the citizens of the capital do not serve corvee service, this makes people feel crazy happily.

The Zhenguan rule was the best era in history. In that era, because Emperor Taizong of Tang frequently conscripted corvee labor, many ordinary people broke their hands and feet in order to avoid corvee labor. This shows the terrible degree of corvee labor.

In Li Shimin's era, and so on, the situation of the people in other eras can be imagined.

When the couple ran to Dong'anmen, thousands of people had already arrived. They were lined up by the Jinyiwei organization and stepped forward to be reviewed one by one. After all, this was a royal transaction. It was not something that anyone could accept.

According to Yang Fan's recruitment habits, he only needs to be honest and afraid of the farmers in the government.

A scoundrel, don't want any scoundrel.

People in the capital are now used to queuing up. These are the changes brought by Yang Fan.

After an hour, the couple finally came to the queue.

A person who looks like a female official sat on a chair and drank a cup of tea gracefully. At first glance, he was a person who had received high-end training in the palace. His behavior patterns were all high-end.

A young father-in-law next to him looked at the people who were applying for jobs with a serious face. He monitored the eunuchs and female officials in the palace below to recruit. Now, after the empress set up a wool spinning factory, she used female officials in the palace as managers. Now that female officials come out to do business, the people are used to it.

Wang Zhuer came to the table, and a middle-aged eunuch sat here and questioned them about the applicants.

I asked about my background and what jobs I had done in the past. I looked quite satisfied with Wang Zhuer.

"Our family is ugly. We take out manure, but it is dirty and tiring. Although it does not require skills, it must be able to endure hardships. Don't run away if you can't stand it for a few days. That's not possible. This is a royal business, you can beat the board. You have to work for at least three years before you can quit your job." A eunuch in his forties said arrogantly.

Wang Zhuer quickly nodded and said, "Don't worry, father-in-law. I have been employed by Wang Juren in my hometown for many years. I have been digging all the toilets in his house. I don't think they are dirty, I can do any work."

The eunuch glanced at him with cold eyes and suddenly grabbed his hand. Wang Zhuer was so scared that he wanted to shrink his hand, but the eunuch seemed to have practiced kung fu. When he exerted force on his hand, his half of his body was sore and soft that he could not move.

The eunuch ignored Wang Zhuer, who was so scared that his face turned pale, looked carefully at the frostbite and calluses on his hands, and nodded, saying, "You guy didn't lie to our family by then, you are a coolie."

"Okay, you and your wife go over. Stand opposite you, have three days of training, and you can go to the job after passing the assessment."

Wang Zhuer and his wife were immediately filled with joy.

This is being hired.

If you do well, you will be granted the naturalization of Wanping County (the imperial capital today's Xicheng District).
