The newly married couples could not bear for the husbands to go to the southern frontier alone, so the wives secretly asked the recruiting soldier, "Brother, can I go with you?"

Women were not stronger than men, but some were used to doing rough work. The southern frontier was currently short of people. Even if they could not work, it was very easy for them to be in charge of the logistics of the workers, light a fire, cook, tidy up the base, plant some vegetables around, and open a restaurant and clothes shop.

In particular, the denim fabric was produced locally in Syria. Yu Suisheng still had to build a large workshop and needed a lot of women.

Apart from the southern frontier, Bai Wutong's workshop was still short of a large amount of labor.

The soldier said, "It's fine for the women to follow. There are also some women who have to be recruited for some work in the camp, but there are limited spots. After the vacancies are filled up, we won't recruit anymore. However, the southern frontier will also build a fabric workshop, an instant noodles workshop, a candy workshop... If you follow along and wait for a while, as long as you work hard, you can still get a stable job in the Imperial Court."

When the women heard that there were actually so many jobs, they immediately had the intention to follow their husbands.

Another woman asked, "Then can we be in the same camp as our husband?"

The soldier said in detail, 'The place of work is different. Husband and wife naturally can't share the same tent. '

"But both of you have days to rest. If you want to get together, it's impossible not to see each other in the southern frontier."

"But there's one thing you have to pay attention to. The tent size is for four people. If you want to live alone, you have to pay extra money to rent a tent. '

Upon hearing that they needed silver, the women's expressions darkened. When they heard from the soldiers that they could stay in a separate tent for 100 coins a month, everyone felt at ease again.

If the couple both worked, they would earn at least four taels of silver a month. A hundred coins was not a big deal.

Male and female workers were competing for the positions fiercely locally. The cities closest to the border of the southern frontier had recruited tens of thousands of workers at once, and there was a trend of more and more people applying for it.

It had to be known that the total number of refugees that Emperor Ling Hui had chased away with a taels of silver and the families of the officials who had been exiled from the previous dynasty did not exceed 100,000.

In just a few days, they had recruited so many laborers. This made the local magistrate anxious.

Yu Suisheng had taken all the labor away. If no one farmed their local labor, what would they do if no one could produce food?

The local authorities stopped the people from signing up.

At that time, Emperor Ling Hui had issued a decree. As long as they took the initiative to settle down in the southern frontier, not only would the local government have to let them free, but they would also have to give them silver.

After Yu Suisheng argued with the local authorities, finally, the local authorities were afraid that Emperor Ling Hui would settle the score. They were also afraid that this was the new method that Emperor Ling Hui had thought of to move the people, so they could only agree with tears in their eyes.
