Yang Rui discussed with everyone, and the new fertility stimulation system was quickly issued.
"Buttface, read it quickly. What does it say on the Imperial Board?"
"A policy book presented by the Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty, the backbone of the East Sea Kingdom, is specially approved to encourage people to have children.
"First, anyone who gives birth to a child is a citizen of the Great Han Dynasty. Before the age of three, each child will receive 180 East Sea copper coins as a child-rearing fee. The relevant funds will be raised by the local administration of the state, county, and county.
"Second, for parents who give birth to a child, the mother will receive at least six months of recuperation and rearing, which is a paid leave. All necessary expenses will be raised by the workshop and other workplaces. Non-workers will be raised by the local administration of the state, county, and county at half of the local average income standard.
"The father will receive one month of care leave, which is a paid leave. All necessary expenses will be raised by the workshop and other workplaces. Non-workers will be raised by the local administration of the state, county, and county at half of the local average income standard.
"Third …?"
In front of a bulletin board in Heyin County, which was within Yang Rui's jurisdiction, there was a large crowd. At this time, many people were illiterate. A down-and-out scholar called Buttface was recommended by the crowd to read the Imperial Board.
"Buttface, are you reading it correctly? Are these things real?"
"Yeah, don't tell me you don't know how to read and are pretending to be ostentatious?"
"Buttface, you don't even have a proper job to do. You don't even have the strength to truss a chicken. Are you reading these to fool us?"
“...?...”
Buttface had only read two lines, and many people were already questioning him loudly. They still didn't believe that what Buttface said was true.
After all, the fertility treatment mentioned on the Imperial Board might not necessarily be implemented in every industry and corner in the real world. In the game, it was even more unheard of.
"I have been working at the dock in Heyin County since a month ago and became a copywriter in the workshop. I have passed the selection examination advocated by the King of the East Sea. Please don't make fun of me anymore. Otherwise, I will just pass by and go on my way."
Buttface tried to defend himself when he heard someone questioning his ability and making fun of him for not being able to support himself.
He had indeed passed the recruitment exam organized by Yang Rui, and had temporarily become a copywriter in the Heyin County's shipyard. His "salary and treatment" were no longer comparable to that of an ordinary person.
When Buttface read the Imperial Ranking List, he frowned. The content of the Imperial Ranking List was too bizarre. It was so bizarre that people couldn't believe it.
In fact, as a "scholar," Buttface had heard about the King of the East Sea's policy of encouraging people to have more children, such as allowing polygamy and giving some subsidies for having children. However, it was only a one-time thing, and the scope of promotion was very narrow.
At this time, the population stimulation policy covered the entire territory of the Great Han Dynasty. As a "scholar," Buttface could be counted as close to it. Such a huge population stimulation policy required a huge amount of money.
"Three, promote fast birth and eugenics measures for women of childbearing age. Women over the age of 18 can have children. Women over the age of 25 who have not given birth to their first child will have all the incentives reduced by half. Those who have given birth to their first child can continue to enjoy the full stimulation policy in their subsequent births.
Four, implement the performance encouragement policy. Those who are stable producers in the industry and are recognized as having the ability to raise children can marry more wives. "
“...?...”
Buttface had convinced everyone with his actions and proved his ability. However, he was forced to continue reading the Imperial Ranking List as a "coolie."
The more they listened, the more they didn't understand. For example, because of the war, the ratio of women to men was indeed higher. Yang Rui had also established a policy to reward the number of wives in the military reward system.
However, although the game didn't limit how many wives you could marry, poor families would be satisfied with just one wife, let alone a few. Therefore, it wasn't like what people imagined in reality, where everyone could marry an unlimited number of wives.
It was a similar situation in history. Only those with rich family properties could have a few more concubines. The rest of the people were unable to do so. It was the same in the game world.
However, with the prosperity of production in Yang Rui's territory, the existence of various incentives, and the actual situation where there were more women than men, the ratio of women to men had increased.
"Nine, reduce the number of people of the right age who haven't married. Remove special groups such as those who are mentally retarded and unable to take care of themselves. First, promote the relevant people to work and give them a marriage reward that is not lower than the local average annual income."
“...?...”
At this time, it wasn't only Buttface in Heyin County who was reading the contents of the Imperial Board. In Xiang City, Liu Biao's Inner Guard also took out a copy of the Imperial Board and read it to Liu Biao and the others.
"Hmph! Let the local finance bear the burden. This is the King of the East Sea's evil plan! "
"Is it true? …"
“...?...”
Liu Biao and the others stopped to discuss it. After reading eight or nine of the contents, Liu Biao, who had been thinking about Yang Rui's intentions, seemed to have grasped the key point.
It seems to be a matter of money! Liu Biao was almost certain of this point. He thought that Yang Rui's purpose was to drag him down.
Yang Rui did have this intention. He wanted to use the name of the Han Dynasty's little Emperor, Liu Xie, to implement this system throughout the Great Han Dynasty.
Although Yang Rui knew very well that this system of incentives for people to have children could only be effective in his own territory, he didn't mind letting the NPC Liegeman outside his territory know about it. His intention was to create pressure on the system.
When the advantages of this system were reflected again in Yang Rui's territory, Yang Rui could even see a new wave of NPC immigrants being pushed forward.
The labor force brought by this wave of immigrants was even more direct than the labor force obtained by encouraging people to have children. After all, the immigrant labor force didn't need to grow up from an infant.
"Ten, this system will be implemented from today onwards. The King of the East Sea will send people to investigate and confirm the implementation of the system in each territory.
If anyone disobeys, once discovered, they will be severely punished according to the law …? "
"Hmph!"
"A bunch of nonsense …?"
"Treacherous! Treacherous! "
“...?...”
