"I suddenly remembered a very suitable distribution method in the time and space I am in."
Xie Ling pulled Gu Wei and rushed into the study, grabbed the paper and pen beside her, and quickly wrote three big words.
Centimeter system.
Xie Ling explained.
"The centimeter system treats centimeters as a circulating currency like silver and can be used to exchange for various things. For example, a man worked in the fields for a day and earned ten centimeters. He could go to the county government and exchange these ten centimeters for half a pound of rice."
Gu Wei immediately drew inferences from his experience, "So, not only can you work, as long as you contribute to the county government, you can get centimeters. Of course, centimeters can be exchanged for more than just rice, but can be all kinds of materials, houses, or shops?"
Xie Ling nodded.
"But it's still a little difficult to implement on a large scale now. Let's try it among farmers first. When your subordinates arrive, we can promote it on a large scale in Sinan. It can be used by all, whether in the military camps or among scholars, farmers, merchants and industrialists."
Gu Wei's eyes were sparkling, and he was completely lost in thought.
He couldn't stop praising it, "Who could come up with this method? It can perfectly eliminate laziness or excessive eating of public food, and it will greatly improve the social atmosphere."
Xie Ling raised her eyebrows and said nothing.
Just at this moment, a report came from outside the study.
A soldier handed over a letter.
Xie Ling unfolded it and sneered after reading it.
"Wang Shouyi really showed us his weaknesses. It looks like we can take over Changshou Military Village in a few days."
Gu Wei raised his eyebrows, "What's your plan, Madam?"
Xie Ling smiled but said nothing.
"You go and arrange the public cent system, and leave the military garrison to me."
On the same day, Gu Wei immediately promoted the work point system.
When Xu Xingzhi and others learned that this was Xie Ling's strategy, they praised it endlessly.
Gu Wei sent a large number of soldiers to spread the news, and it took three or four days before the people believed it.
For families who voluntarily donate their land, if one hundred centimeters of land is donated, they can exchange it for fifty kilograms of rice, one hundred kilograms of coarse grains, and many winter clothes, cotton-padded clothes, quilts, and cotton.
Anyway, there are many good things in Xie Ling's space, so the raid on the Beijiang royal family was not in vain.
Those people had never seen such good things before, and they were staring at them with their eyes wide open.
However, most people still give priority to exchanging food.
After all, in the winter in Lingnan, you need food to survive.
As for the rest, we'll work hard to get them.
After getting the things in their hands, the people trusted the government even more and worked harder, with each one working more enthusiastically than the other.
Xie Ling also erected two large wooden signs at the entrance of the county government office.
A wooden plaque with an ink pen updates the list of the top 100 centimeters winners every day.
The other part lists the materials that can be exchanged, with some new and interesting things added almost every day, even spices and jewelry, but there is no mention of houses, shops, and official titles for the time being.
Farmers have too few enlightened minds to avoid confusion.
Thanks to the hard work of the farmers, land reclamation, fertilization and planting were all completed in just five or six days.
Xie Ling was afraid that farmers would pursue speed and not be dedicated, so she made another rule: after the sweet potatoes and potatoes are planted, they can be exchanged for centimeters based on their yield.
The farmers are more diligent and more careful than when they farm themselves. They go to the fields three or four times a day to check on them, for fear that the seedlings will be bitten by insects or flooded.
It just so happened that Paradise City was in urgent need of help, so Xie Ling included the construction of Paradise City in the list of ways to earn work points.
Farmers scrambled to apply for jobs as workers in Ji Le City, which just solved Liao Qizhu's biggest worry.
Gu Wei also ordered that those who committed crimes would have their points deducted from their official duties, and implemented a system of collective responsibility, where if one person was punished, the whole family would suffer.
No farmer dared to do evil anymore.
For a time, the entire countryside of Sinan County was prosperous, the people were progressive, and the society was very harmonious.
"How does this look like a locust plague?"
A heartfelt question was raised in Wang Shouyi's tent.
