South Street is the only way out of the immigration camp. It is still a new road in Fucheng this year. Fucheng is the main port of Qiongzhou Prefecture. The Nanhai Kingdom is very prosperous this year, and the flow of goods from the southern states and counties is busy. Later, a cluster of shops opened on South Street. Seeing that this area was getting bigger and bigger, the Fourth Young Master built a cement road for the merchants and called it South Street.
With the establishment of South Street, goods from the following prefectures and counties no longer have to enter the city. They gather here to be selected by maritime merchants and then transported directly to the dock in the west of the city. As time went by, some businessmen bought half an acre of land from a farmer nearby to build a house for convenience, so some residential houses gradually began to appear near South Street. With the addition of the newly built Wang's Family, Bao's Inn, and Lu's Restaurant, it became even more lively. Although it is outside the city, it is more lively than inside the city.
The day more than 2,000 Liao people finished their basic training and walked out of the "immigration camp", South Street was filled with businesses recruiting workers. At this time, the first shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper often lead the team in person, along with a few capable clerks, wearing silk and satin clothes to show off, and standing on South Street with the sign of their own business. There are also those who are more willing to rent a tailor shop or a rice shop at the entrance of the immigration camp, and put up a big banner to attract the attention of the Liao people.
The Liao people are also used to being pitiful people. Most of them just came out of the immigration camps and did not dare to ask about the treatment given by their employers. Most of the time they walked around the streets, gathered in small groups to discuss a few words, and then put their hands on the business name with their heads covered. Fortunately, King Bei has already stipulated that for employees with the status of labor, the "labor contract" cannot exceed one year. Even if these Liao people entered the wrong business, they would only be delayed for a year.
The Feng family in Wenchang was very popular this time. In order to recruit workers, he directly took over the Lu family restaurant. On this day, the Lu family's signboard was wrapped in red cloth, and there were several big signs hanging high at the door of the wine shop, "Wenchang Feng Family", "Wages are generous", "The owner is honest", everyone from the waiter to the shopkeeper was dressed in light ink The green shirt hints at the tradition of the Feng family¡¯s scholarly family. The young master, Feng Yunlu, stood at the door with his sleeves inserted and a faint smile on his face.
This appearance has won the favor of many Liao people. Hundreds of businesses, large and small, are recruiting people. The one who gained the most today is the Feng family. The Feng family clearly wrote on the door that sailors who sailed overseas would be given 20 or 20 cents a month. Just this one line was enough to snare almost all the more than 100 Liao soldiers who had passed through Haiti. Coupled with the manpower recruited from the silk and satin business and the bank business, the Feng family has eaten more than 300 people this time.
The success of the Feng family has made many businesses angry. Small businesses and companies that have not hired adults gathered together and pointed at the wine shops here. If everyone used to avoid the Feng family of Wenchang like a plague god, today, these colleagues have begun to hate the Feng family.
Mr. Xu hasn¡¯t walked around the mall for a long time. This day, his eldest son pulled him out and said he wanted to use him as an errand to support the occasion. The Xu family's recruitment stall has been set up all morning. Except for six people who couldn't swim and were reluctantly accepted as sailors before lunch, no second batch of Liao people came in. Mr. Xu was walking on the street and saw the excitement in the Feng family. He walked around the restaurant and walked in with a long stride.
"I said, where is Mr. Feng?"
"In the previous dynasty, when Nanhai Kingdom had not yet been founded, the Feng family, who was afraid of being powerful and wealthy, would not even bother to fight with Mr. Xu. But this will be different. Now Mr. Xu is the person who can talk to the King of Nanhai. With the influence of Mr. Xu alone, the Xu family can be ranked among the top ten in the business circle of Nanhai Kingdom.
And the Feng family in Wenchang. After the rice price war in the first year of Nanhai. That¡¯s seven stops out of ten stops. Fortunately, the young boss Feng Yunlu changed his dandy habits after the old man fell ill. He managed to hold on to the family business. A camel is so skinny that it is bigger than a horse. Once you get over it. It seems that there is some atmosphere. This time, that time. One goes down and the other goes down. Now the Feng family. I really don¡¯t dare to neglect Mr. Xu.
Mr. Feng is lying on the bed. How come here. Feng Yunlu knew that Mr. Xu was showing off his identity. He quickly went up and greeted him as a junior. smiled. "What kind of gust of wind is this? It's blowing Mr. Xu here."
Second Master Xu looked at this junior, a distant relative. Grinning. "What? Too busy? Shouldn't I, Xu Zhengnan, be here?"
There is a hint of thorn in this statement. How could Feng Yunlu not understand? He is a person who is used to seeing favors. He quickly bowed his arms to the ground. He begged for mercy. "Second Master Xu, please don't be afraid of the afterlife. Second Master, please come in. Sit down and talk."
These words made Mr. Xu feel comfortable. His face looked a bit better. Feng Yunlu walked up and grabbed Mr. Xu's arm and walked inside. I just sat down in a quiet room with a window. The waiter at the Lu Family Restaurant presented wine, vegetables and fruits. Feng Yunlu grabbed the jug and filled a glass for Mr. Xu. smiled. "Second Master, you haven't been out and about for a long time?"
Second Master Xu snorted. said. "Why didn't you come out? King Nan was in Fucheng a few days ago. He even came to my new house for a drink." Mr. Xu paused.He didn't panic when asked, and answered politely and politely,
"Your Highness, there are no cases today. In the afternoon, someone accused the Feng family of Wenchang of grandstanding and disrupting the market, but no evidence was produced. I expected that there would be less trouble today, so I went to the scene to collect evidence."
Dong Xuepu looked at the Wenchang Feng Family sign and asked, "What will be the result of your on-the-spot evidence?"
"It's definitely a matter of grandstanding, but according to Nanhai Country's Civil and Commercial Law, grandstanding is not a crime. Disturbing the market is hard to justify. The Feng family is a registered business, and renting a liquor store to recruit workers is a legal act. It can¡¯t be said to disrupt the market.¡±
Dong Xuepu nodded and said, "Good judgment, thank you for your hard work." After thinking about it, Dong Xuepu added, "There are always people who make trouble out of nothing. If there is evidence, they will judge. If there is no evidence, let the plaintiff find evidence by himself. Don't do this scene anymore." The matter of collecting evidence is to avoid undermining the majesty of the judge."
Zhang Xingjiao thought for a while and agreed. He did not get close to King Bei, and went back to the Yamen on his own after finishing his work. Dong Xuepu looked at his back and said with a smile, "He is a good and responsible judge."
Zhao Wu shook his head and said, "Master, this Feng family is no better than other families. Not to mention the former Feng Yunshan, how many things did Mr. Feng do in Tunmi last time? I think someone sued them, and it was because of their grudges."
Seeing that Zhao Wu's words seemed to mean condemning the Feng family, Dong Xuepu shook his head and said, "Zhao Wu, this morality belongs to morality, and the law belongs to law. No matter how shameless the Feng family is, as long as he does not break the law, we will not arrest him. This is Our society is governed by the rule of law.¡±
Zhao Wu almost sounded calloused by his words, Na Na was speechless and just argued, "I think the Feng family hates us.¡±
Dong Xuepu shook his head and said, "If you hate, you will hate. If we can't tolerate even one Feng family, our Nanhai country will lose its meaning. The essence of a society governed by law is not to judge people by love and hate. He is a moral model. He broke the law. We must catch him to the end. Even if he is an unscrupulous scoundrel, even if he does everything legally, we cannot deal with him."
Dong Xuepu smiled and said, "You have to **,** you can govern the country and straighten out this South China Sea country. If you don't ** and be moral, who would dare to go abroad to kidnap piglets? Which of the smugglers around King Nan has any hands? No blood? Who hasn¡¯t done any evil things abroad? Who shouldn¡¯t be killed? If we kill these people, our country in Nanhai will be almost the same."
