Eat for a while

Li Fushou raised his head and took a big sip of beer. He patted his stomach with satisfaction and said, "Oh, it's really good. These snacks have their own characteristics. They can eat all over the world on this street, which makes people feel inexplicably satisfied. The only regret is that they can't sit on the street while talking and enjoying the food. They can only enjoy it secretly here, with a little bit of fireworks."

"Haha, if you really do this, it's probably time for Lao Lei from the personal guard to jump off."

"So I didn't make him embarrassed, so I said that Brother Changjun was greedy and insisted on taking me out for snacks."

"You... just use me as a shield."

"I have no choice. Last night, the carriage convoy passed by this street and smelled so many snacks, but it made me so greedy. It was full of memories!"

When Li Fushou said this, his eyes were filled with warm memories, and his past and present were intertwined, and he could no longer understand what was going on.

Now that he is at a high position, he has lost the freedom of many ordinary people.

It was like a wonderful siege. People in the city were eager to go out and breathe fresh air. People outside the city were envious and wanted to squeeze in...

Xin Changjun could see that the Count was worried at the moment and could not bear to break the tranquility at this moment. He patiently played with the jade pieces in his hand.

At this moment, the narrow carriage was filled with the spicy taste of Mexican barbecue, and the lights on the streets shone in through the carriage windows, intertwining with the oil lights in the carriage into a dim picture.

Li Fushou's eyes were deep and bright, with complex emotions hidden in his eyes. After a long time, he sighed, "Ah... I'm pretentious, so I made Brother Changjun laugh."

"Where is this? Yuan Ding is a person with a temperament and always has a compassion and kindness. This is the blessing of the thousands of people in the Red River Valley. It is better than a mean and polite superior."

"Haha..." Li Fushou chuckled twice without answering the conversation, looking at the pedestrians coming and going out the carriage window, and suddenly asked, "Brother Changjun, have you discovered the characteristics of the crowds on the street?"

"Well... Yuan Ding, which aspect are you referring to?"

"Whenever a woman passes here, she will always attract a large number of men's attention. This kind of gaze will make women feel very uneasy, and... there are too few women on the street."

"Yuan Ding, this problem has always existed." Xin Changjun once ruled the country, and of course he knew that the yin and yang disorders were extremely harmful to society, and answered deeply with deep feelings;

"After the public security cleaning operation, the social atmosphere became a stalemate, and vicious incidents such as robbery, fights and murders quickly declined, and public security improved greatly.

However, vicious cases of teasing women and rape have risen sharply, especially young men who immigrate, which are constantly banned.

Today's hard labor camps have added two or three hundred criminals every month, more than half of which are charged.

Among the arrested criminals, including some RCMPs, who used their posts to molest women, the reason was that there were too few women and too many men who were bachelors.

Zhuangzi said;

The most shady and solemn, the most yang is magnificent. It comes from the sky and spreads from the earth. When transportation becomes harmonious, all things are born.

During the founding period of the Red River Valley, everything was in trouble and was unable to take into account this matter.

Now we have a considerable foundation of strength, the probability of immigrant population exceeds 2.3 million, and it is still growing rapidly at a rate of more than 60,000 people per month. It is expected to reach a scale of 3 million by the end of the year.

Among them, the population of young women is less than 300,000, most of them work in several cotton mills, as well as some theaters, teahouses, halls and societies. Almost most of these women who are suitable for marriage are married, and those who are not married are engaged, and few of them are waiting to marry.

The problem of imbalance in the ratio of men and women is getting worse and worse. Groups of men go to drink when they get their wages, or go to the brothels and Chu Pavilion. The people's hearts are in a state of being unsolved and seriously affecting social stability.

How can you establish a career without a home and how can you return to your heart?

Lord Yuanding, please think twice!”

After exploring the pros and cons, Xin Changjun stopped talking.

This matter has been mentioned several times before and after, but unfortunately, due to various concerns, it was put on hold.

The dim lights reflected on Li Fushou's young and firm face, adding a mysterious color. His expression changed significantly and said, "Oh, I don't know the disadvantages of it. It's just that I hate human trafficking and I'm even more unwilling to involve it. As the problem has become more and more serious over time, I should be responsible, too much."

"Yuan Ding's words are wrong, and it is indeed notorious to sell women. As a superior, you must not have any connection with cherishing feathers, so as not to be criticized by the world." At this point, Xin Changjun bowed his fists and said respectfully. "I have heard that those who are ministers are worried about the hardship of the ministers, and the king is humiliated and died. Please give this matter to me with all your power. The eldest son will definitely do it properly, and eliminate this hidden danger."

"Oh, what are your opinions about Brother Changjun?" Li Fushou asked with interest.

As for the deep meaning of the king and his subjects in Xin Changjun's mouth, Li Fushou deliberately pretended to be unable to hear it and did not touch this sensitive topic.

Today's Qing Dynasty

A woman is an appendix to a patriarchal society. She follows her father at home, and her husband after marriage. If her husband dies, or even her son is dead, the widow's fate will be miserable.

This kind of portal is called "dead family". At this time, relatives and clan members will flock to you. No one can save the property, land contracts and other things in the family, and they will be moved away. This bad habit is called "dead family".

There was a county magistrate in Sichuan who died suddenly while in office, leaving only one wife and one son. The poor child was only 9 years old and had to support a huge portal.

But unfortunately, the child drowned and died not long after.

Relatives and tribesmen around flocked to sweep away all their property and land bribes. The poor woman was also driven out of her house and even sold to prostitutes by bad people.

This is just a microcosm of society, reflecting the low status of women in the Qing Dynasty today and has no right to be independent at all.

The young woman thinks of going to Australia to explore, and there is no chance of one in ten thousand.

There are only three ways to get to Australia;

One way is that parents and brothers migrate, either by the opera troupe, or by merchants and tyrants. One way is to be bought or adopted by "Guangjitang" (99% of them were bought), trained and sent to Australia, and then abandoned the contract for sale and returned to the free agent. The last way is to sell the person traffickers to Australia.

Anyone with discerning eyes can see that except for following their parents and brothers to travel around in Australia, these women can hardly escape the trafficking path.

This is exactly why Li Fushou was afraid to avoid it. Even if the original intention was good, how would future generations interpret it?

So he released all the black slaves to their free self, and all the victims who arrived in Southwest Shandong who arrived in Australia after signing slave contracts were also released to their free self. They just need to pay the ticket to arrive in Australia and become free laborers.

Similarly, all the maids in the Red Fort abolished the slave contract, and the entire Red River Valley territory was not allowed to trade.

As for the black slaves in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, the private property of local white ranchers is reasonable and legal according to the laws of the British Empire, and the Earl of Queensland certainly has no right to interfere.

Xin Changjun thought about it for a moment and said seriously;

“Mr. Yuanding;

Nowadays, a woman who is waiting to be a girl, the man pays a lot of dozens or hundreds of pounds, and there is no room for choice. After passing this village, there will be no store.

As the saying goes, it is better to be distracted than to block. Single immigrant men in the Red River Valley are willing to pay more money to solve the marriage problem. My method is to focus on the power of the people, and the government limited-edition media companies to guide capable merchants to operate formally.

If an unmarried man in the Red River Valley wants to get married, he has to bear all the costs of arriving in Australia, and it will not be higher than the current bride price.

Preliminary consideration is given to issuing 20 media company licenses, which can arrange tickets for single women. Through the immigration camp review, the government collects taxes and fees according to the cap, and all other expenses are borne by the media company, and the profit and loss are borne by the media company."

"No... don't charge this tax and fee. It's bad reputation, and Red River Valley is not short of this little money. Collecting taxes and fees means that the government has to endorse it. At that time, if any messy and dirty things are dealt with, you cannot uphold a public heart and crack down on it severely." Li Fushou rubbed his eyebrows with some distress. He also heard it for a while before he knew what this media company was?

It’s the meaning of the matchmaker introducing the company, it’s so amazing!

"What Lord Yuanding is worried about is that Changjun is not considering it."

"Okay, Brother Changjun, I know you are dedicated to the public and willing to come forward to take on this thankless thing, but this matter cannot be done in the name of the government. You can use a company with a government background to organize it. It is of the civil nature, and the corresponding responsibilities and rights are justified. There is no need to say it explicitly, so there will be greater room for slowing down."

"I understand, if necessary, I will come forward to stand up for this company." Xin Changjun immediately understood.

Li Fushou nodded and said, "Well, that's what it means."

"Changjun understands that after he goes back, he will organize a company to organize the media company to publicly bid for the license. He donates all the income to the two hospitals, "Guangjitang" and Renci Renji, without leaving any money."

"That's the reason. This money and reputation are a big obstacle, so it's better not to take it."

"Changjun has received the teachings, and there is another thing to ask Lord Yuanding. Please be sure to agree, otherwise this good thing may be done."

"What's the matter? Please come just by way of the way."

"Lord Yuanding, although I have issued 20 licenses, I am still worried that media companies will join forces to raise prices. After all, scarcity is the most expensive. The single man in the Red River Valley is like a long drought and rain. I am afraid that the price of this matchmaker will be hyped up. So I hope to moderately relax the crackdown on human trafficking, and add another channel to help form a fair market. In terms of strict review of immigration, especially refugee camps..."

"Okay, okay, I won't listen to this." Li Fushou shook his head immediately.

"Master Yuanding..." Xin Changjun was a little anxious.

"Um……"

Li Fushou snorted majesticly and glared at Xin Changjun fiercely, which made Xin Changjun understand instantly.

Some things can be done but not said, and some things turn a blind eye does not mean that they agree. If you do too much, you should also hit the target, rather than awarding a gold medal for avoiding death.

It is already the ultimate to be able to achieve this level. You can't openly allow it, right?
