www.lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Miracle Doctor’s Daughter!
Thirty-nine people died, 120 were seriously injured, nearly 200 were slightly injured, and more than 20 people were missing.
A disaster cast another dark cloud over the newly prosperous Ji'an County and Yuzhou.
Too many families went to work in the mines. This caused nearly half of the people in the two places to lose their important labor force. There were still more than 30 families attending funerals, and the whole city was in mourning.
Fortunately, all the seriously injured people were rescued. Except for those who died after being rescued, no one died due to serious injuries. This made most people very grateful to Feng Yuheng. They also witnessed that in order to save people's lives, Princess Ji'an and the Sixth Prince went into battle together. Princess Ji'an consumed all the medicinal materials of Baicaotang. The Sixth Prince, with such a noble status, personally drew blood for blood donors, and later even personally Participate in the rescue and follow the officers and soldiers to dig people out of the mine.
Feng Yuheng held a collective funeral for all the victims after the golden seventy-two hours, and continued to exhume the missing in the following days. But in such a disaster, there are bound to be some corpses that cannot be exhumed. People also know that the so-called disappearances are actually deaths.
On the first seven days, Feng Yuheng announced a compensation plan for all the victims and the seriously injured - each victim would be compensated a one-time payment of two thousand taels of silver; the seriously injured would receive free treatment from Baicaotang for life, and each person would receive free treatment from Baicaotang. A one-time compensation of one thousand taels of silver will be given; in addition to free treatment until the minor injuries are intact, each person will be compensated a one-time compensation of three hundred taels of silver; the missing will be treated the same as the victims.
This compensation is a sky-high price in today's era. Even the sixth prince Xuan Tianfeng was a little surprised when he heard it, and also smiled bitterly. His ninth younger brother and sister are really rich! As everyone knows, the most indispensable thing in Feng Yuheng's hands now is money, because before she came out of the capital, she went to Prince Sheng's Mansion and the Eighth Prince's faction and robbed a lot of people.
The people still had a lot of grievances. Even though Baicaotang tried its best to treat them, their relatives would never come back. Those who were seriously injured did not know whether they would recover. If not, their families would not be able to recover. They lose an important labor force and have to bear the lifetime cost of medicine for the injured, which is no different than death.
However, after Feng Yuheng announced such a compensation plan, people's resentment was all gone. Two thousand taels, one thousand taels, even for minor injuries, they were given three hundred taels, let alone they would not be able to earn anything in their lifetime. With this amount of money, even if the whole family works for two or three lifetimes, it is impossible to earn two thousand taels of silver! Princess Ji'an is so kind. This is a good princess who truly cares about the people!
For a time, people began to feel a new round of gratitude towards Feng Yuheng, and the pain of losing their family members finally eased a little. Feng Yuheng also did a good job in the aftermath. She led people to investigate the families of those who were killed and those who were seriously injured. If there were only elderly people left alone in the family, they would have to form a follow-up team, every day. Every few days, they would come to help with some tasks, buy some necessary rice and deliver them, and absolutely ensure that these people could live a normal life.
A disaster was finally suppressed, and people began to invest in follow-up work. Some are continuing to deal with funerals, while others are cleaning up the mines and rebuilding temporary shelters at the foot of the mountain. An accident occurs in the mine, and people die or are injured. There are not enough manpower, and new ones have to be recruited. However, it is very easy to recruit new people this time. Feng Yuheng’s high compensation package is equivalent to a big advertisement for her mine. People are willing to work here because at least their families will be protected if something goes wrong. To put it bluntly, it won't matter even if I die. Two thousand taels of silver are enough for my family to spend even if they just lie down.
Feng Yuheng also had further contact with the miners through this disaster, and got to know many people. Among them was a young man named Xu Jiang, who was in his mid-twenties and was very smart. In fact, he knew a lot of words and was very popular among the miners. He only suffered some minor injuries this time, all of which were superficial injuries. After being treated by the doctors at Baicaotang, he was fine and the work was not delayed. He felt very sorry that Feng Yuheng had given them three hundred taels of silver as compensation for their minor injuries, so he had been working hard and busy, trying to get as much as possible Do something to be worthy of the three hundred taels of silver.
Feng Yuheng saw that this young man was honest, not stupid, and literate, and the original person in charge had passed away in the disaster, so she simply brought Xu Jiang up and asked him to take charge in the future. working in a mining plant.
Xu Jiang did not expect that he would not only get money but also be promoted. He was so excited that he kept kowtowing to Feng Yuheng and solemnly assured her that he must handle the affairs of the mine well so that the princess can rest assured. .
Feng Yuheng has nothing to worry about. The mines are close to each other and she can come here often. If Xu Jiang doesn't do something well at first, she can teach him step by step.
Many new miners have been recruited in the past few days, and Feng Yuheng has introduced a contract system. No matter whether they are new or former miners, whether they go to the mountains to mine, or whether they are working under the mountains to ensure logistics, or even those who cook The wives and mothers-in-law who do laundry are included. All mine workers must sign a labor contract, which clearly states each person's information, the year they joined the work, the monthly salary, the amount deducted for absences on leave, and overtime bonuses. How much, as well as the welfare benefits promised by the mine to everyone, are clearly written in the contract. After signing, everything will be in accordance with the contract, and no one will be confused.
Because the mine is in Yuzhou, these contracts were filed with the Yuzhou Yamen. Qian Fengshou actively cooperated, and he thought the idea was really good, and discussed with Feng Yuheng about trying it in Yufu. Implement. Feng Yuheng also had this intention, but after all, Yuzhou was too big and was under the jurisdiction of Dashun. She was afraid that directly promoting the meeting in Yuzhou would encounter resistance from merchants. So after discussing it, the two decided to try to implement it in Ji'an County first. Feng Yuheng took the initiative and the sixth prince Xuan Tianfeng wrote the "contract system" from the county government and ordered all merchants to accept it. Room for negotiation. From now on, merchants who hire workers must sign such a contract, and the contract will be filed with the county government. Merchants who do not act in accordance with the contract will be severely punished.
In Jun'an County, Feng Yuheng's words were an imperial edict. Even if the merchants were a little hard to accept at first, they had no other choice. Who allowed them to open their stores in Ji'an County! Not only merchants, Xuan Tianfeng's school also has the same system. He cannot support a school by himself. He also invites many gentlemen to teach together, and these gentlemen have to sign a contract, and they will get as much as they want, and no one can. exception.
In just a few days, those merchants who originally felt a little awkward were able to taste the benefits. With the contract, workers have a sense of security and belonging, work more seriously and hard, their mental outlook is much better than before, and their business has also improved. So people understood that they didn't need to use much brains to do things in Ji'an County. As long as everything followed the thoughts of Princess Ji'an, they would be right.
After the disaster, everything became calm again, but for Feng Yuheng, the mining disaster really began!
She always believed that this was a man-made disaster, and she could basically make a guess as to who actually sacrificed so many lives to trouble her, but she had no evidence.
However, this evidence came quickly. On the third day after everything was settled, two middle-aged men in their forties came to Princess Ji'an's mansion and asked to see Feng Yuheng. Those two people were none other than members of the Eighth Prince's party whose son died in the mining accident. They pretended to be miners and lurked in the mine for several months, in order to destroy the entire mine at the eighth prince's order, thereby attacking Feng Yuheng and at the same time attacking the ninth prince. But they didn't expect that Xuan Tianmo's ruthlessness far exceeded their expectations. He destroyed it, but it also cost the life of their only son.
The two men could no longer bear it and sued Feng Yuheng, exposing the Eighth Prince's crimes one by one. They also provided a list of twenty-three people, all of whom were lurking in the mine. The Eighth Prince Party. One of them even told Feng Yuheng: "The princess has given a sky-high compensation. This news has been sent back to the capital. His Highness the Eighth Prince should have received the news. Based on our understanding of His Highness, he will definitely try to If we use this method to bring down the princess, a new round of blows from the other end of the mine should be coming soon, so the princess must be prepared."
Hearing these words, Feng Yuheng felt a cold feeling in her heart. In order to confront her and Xuan Tianming, Lao Ba actually used such methods? Regardless of risking so many lives, if such a person sits on the throne in the future, how will the world be governed by him? She couldn't imagine that hatred suddenly arose, and a murderous impulse surged, which she suppressed with great difficulty.
To be honest, it would be too easy for her to kill Xuan Tianmo. No matter how many masters there were in the Sheng Palace, they could not stop her who had room for cheating and advanced weapons of the 21st century. But she couldn't do it. He was Emperor Tianwu's biological son. If she committed the murder, Emperor Tianwu would not forgive her even if he knew the truth in his heart. In the confrontation between Xuan Tianming and Xuan Tianmo, Emperor Tianwu supported the struggle on the table, and no matter who the two parties were, once they killed each other by assassination, then the throne would be lost to whoever it was. If he can't sit still, Emperor Tianwu will choose another prince among the other princes.
Feng Yuheng understands how a father feels, but that doesn’t mean she will let the old man go like this. She asked the two people in front of her: "Do you dare to go to Beijing to file a lawsuit when your personal safety can be guaranteed?" Imperial certificate?"
The two men were stunned and hesitated, but in the end they gritted their teeth and said: "Dare! Our only son is gone, what hope do we have for living? Just think of it as revenge for our son, we will do it!"
"Okay!" Feng Yuheng nodded, "I said I can guarantee your personal safety. You will stay in Ji'an County for the time being and don't go anywhere except the residence arranged by me. I will write a note immediately , you go to Beijing tomorrow, don’t look for others, take my handwritten letter, go directly to His Highness the Seventh Prince, he will arrange everything for you."
