Chapter 92 Land and House

For example, you are entitled to ninety days of paid leave during pregnancy, and you can receive child care subsidies before your baby is three years old, etc.

These are all methods that Jack imitated in previous lives to save fertility rates.

In particular, newborns will be given the opportunity to enroll, and the first three years will be tuition-free.

As for where Jack got so much money, it's very simple, just plunder the wealth of other forces.

The essence of foreign war is to strengthen oneself and then continue to plunder with an even stronger posture.

It can be said that from the perspective of women in Atlantis, giving birth to a baby is like laying a golden egg. As long as the child is born, the country will provide money.

In the Middle Ages, having children was considered a right thing for women, and children were the guarantee of labor and old age.

And all the money the empire gives out is because of the kindness of the Poseidon and for their sake.

Jack's policy also successfully set off a wave of baby boom on Neptune Island.

There are even many men and women who spend money from the empire in order to have children. They don't even know each other's people, and they get married right away after a simple contact and they feel they are compatible.

This situation couldn't help but remind Jack of the blind date in his previous life. The two parties also didn't understand each other, and they got married in a hurry because of the pressure from the family.

The final result is that married life is a mess. It's fine if you have children, but if you don't have children, you'll basically get divorced.

In his previous life, after Jack was Dandan, he witnessed with his own eyes the process of China going from a country with a large population to a country with negative population growth.

At that time, Jack thought it was good when it came to individuals. At least the fewer people there were, the more "valuable" it would be.

But now Jack is a leader, an emperor, and a modern man who understands the five thousand years of history of his country.

He is very aware of the benefits brought by the demographic dividend, so he has been involved in population development since the founding of Atlantis.

He wanted Atlantis to have a demographic dividend, and at least to maintain an explosive population growth trend until it entered modern society.

But Jack is not in a hurry. Even with Jack's own intervention, it will take a hundred or two hundred years to leap from the Middle Ages to modern society.

That's long enough for Jack to start working on the minds of the Atlanteans.

Newgate didn't know what was going on in Jack's mind. He only knew that Atlantis would be able to absorb more slaves.

With 12 giant ships, thousands more people can be transported without disturbing Atlantis' strategic food storage.

If a giant ship follows the normal slave transportation method, it can carry at least a thousand people, but the cabin may be crowded with people.

"By the way, Newgate, now that the factory on Crescent Island has started working, how will the traffic be solved?"

"Your Majesty, the distance between the islands is only half an hour. According to your suggestion, a small island was built there."

"Community."

“Yes, it is a community, but we have limited manpower and have only built one finished community with only 30 houses.

According to what the craftsmen said, they inserted something developed by blacksmiths into the cement. What is it called? What is it called? "

"alloy steel."

"Yes, it's alloy steel. I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm old and my memory is really not very good." Newgate said with some embarrassment.

Jack waved and asked the maid to move a bench to Newgate.

"Sit down and talk when you're old. You're over fifty and you're pretty tough."

What Jack said is true. In the world of Game of Thrones, even in Changxia, the average age of the world's population is only between 30 and 35 years old.

If it's a long night, well, the average age cannot be calculated.

Because even some proletarian knights or small nobles with poor territories may freeze to death or starve to death.

When the long night comes, Essos' situation is better than that of Westeros. At least Essos won't have snow all year round.

But Westeros is different, especially the North.

There are about two million people in the north, and it would be good to have one third left after a long night.

“They followed the idea you provided and inserted this corrosion-resistant alloy steel into the cement.

Therefore, our community can be built up to five floors, and each floor has a standard room of 84 square meters with two bedrooms and one living room. "

In fact, it can be built even higher. People in Game of Thrones are still very skilled in building houses.

The castles of nobles and the pyramids of slave owners all demonstrate the extraordinary skills of craftsmen.

Especially the great pyramid that Daenerys occupies is two hundred meters high.

But what Jack wanted was low-cost and high-efficiency, so a five-story community became the best choice.

Not only is it not as complicated to build as pyramids and castles.

It also allowed the foundation that could only accommodate 6 homes to be used by 30 homes.

Utilization has increased fivefold, how great.

Jack is a good man.

He has not introduced the public-sharing system. Each house has a standard 84 square meters with two bedrooms and one living room.

"You will arrange for someone to announce it later, saying that the first Happy Home Community has been built on Yueyue Island, and there are currently only thirty houses on a first-come, first-served basis.

At the same time, glass factories, breweries, soap factories, fertilizer factories, iron works, and clothing factories began to recruit workers.

The average monthly salary is 6,000 copper coins, with five days off and two days off. Priority is given to those who are married and those with children at home. The factory will also provide additional welfare policies such as childcare subsidies. "

Newgate was a little surprised when he heard this and said:

"Your Majesty, is this too high? The average monthly salary of six thousand is too high. Just pay six hundred a month."

An average of 600 copper coins a month, with no time off.

This is the treatment of most people who cut wood, collect stones, and reclaim wasteland.

But even so, Newgate thinks the treatment is too good.

In his opinion, being able to arrange three meals a day for them and get three hundred copper coins a month is already a gift from Jack.

After all, the three meals a day that Jack arranged for this group of people include minced meat and big bones.

Even if there is not much meat and big bones, there is meat to eat every day, which is the greatest ideal of every slave.

Jack doesn't know what Newgate thinks. If he knew, he would definitely sigh: You are kind, but not much.

In fact, in Newgate's opinion, providing meals, three meals a day, and giving ten copper coins a day are simply the days that slaves dare not dream of.

But in Jack's opinion, it is far from enough. If the salary is not high, how to stimulate consumption? How to sell houses?

One difference between Atlantis and other forces is that in terms of land system, the land belongs to the empire and the people have the right to use it.

And the land for housing naturally has a use period of only eighty years and can be transferred to other people.

After the expiration, the Empire will not take back the property, but renew it for free.

However, the procedures for the land use certificate and the property certificate will not be changed, that is, the time will not be re-registered and updated.

In this case, if you want Atlantis citizens to buy houses, you have to do two things at the same time.

"Newgate, add one more thing to the law. Any Atlantis citizen is prohibited from building a house by himself.

All housing is built in the community by the state, and private land transactions are strictly prohibited. All land transactions must be registered with the government.

Finally, one more thing, if you want to work in the factory on Crescent Island, you must buy a house.

The original price of the house is 500 gold dragons, and I only sell it for 50 gold dragons now, which is considered a job offer for them."

Newgate asked hesitantly:

"Well, Your Majesty, even if it is 50 gold dragons, they may not be able to afford it."

Most people now live in temporary residences. Newgate had previously asked Jack why he didn't build a house first.

At that time, Jack's reply to him was to wait and he would make his own arrangements.
