0553 Unscrupulous means, gathering things to prepare for war
Li Tong didn't know what Yang Zaisi was thinking, and even if he knew, most of them would just smile, where did he go, he had prepared more programs for these people in Chang'an.
He doesn't hate the rich, but when people have money, of course, they want to enjoy a better life. But correspondingly, there is also a greater price to pay for a better life.
Previously, the whole city searched Dou Huairang, and it was a rough idea of the basic situation of each family in Chang'an, such as the size of the garden house, the number of people, etc., these are all data that will be used one by one in the future, and the "House Order" is just a small test.
Chang'an City is very large, nearly twice the size of Luoyang City, so a large part of the city's resources are idle. Anyone in the city who has a little wealth is a basic operation to build a mansion, after all, being idle is also idle, and no one cares.
But not being in charge doesn't mean it's legal, and being idle doesn't mean it's okay to take it at will. You said that you are from the family of Yuancong, and your ancestors have shed blood and contributed to the Tang Dynasty, which is indeed good, but the country has not treated you badly. There should always be a yardstick for everything, and if you exceed the rules, you must be beaten.
Living in a big house, building a big house, this is no problem, you can buy half of Chang'an City if you have money, but you have to pay!
As for the well payment, this is also normal. The surrounding areas of Chang'an have been developed for many years, and when it comes to living conditions, they are far inferior to Luoyang. Although there are wells in the market, the water quality is turbid and bitter, and the drinking experience is very bad.
Therefore, many powerful families choose places with excellent groundwater quality to dig wells privately to meet their own drinking needs. Even many Buddhist temples and temples use this as a means to attract believers and raise money.
At present, Li Tong does not plan to provoke those religious people for the time being, so for the time being, he only charges for the wells dug privately by the powerful people. The hometown of the Xijing people has been lost, and engaging them will not arouse public resentment.
But those Buddhist temples and Taoist temples are really going to be built, and they may cause riots in minutes, and King Yong is greedy and excessive, and even the people of Chang'an are not allowed to drink water. Although these wells are not free. To exercise religious control, it is necessary to have a strong mass base and administrative ability, which the shogunate does not yet have.
Previously, the shogunate had already calculated that if the "Residence Order" was promulgated for the whole city, it should be able to bring in about 600,000 yuan in revenue. Among them, the mansions that exceed the rules belong to the majority of the income.
The income of 600,000 yuan is a considerable amount of income even if it is a national administrative center like Shendu. At present, Li Tong can only effectively control Chang'an City for the time being, and of course he can do a lot of things.
At present, the guests outside the city have entered a relatively stable stage of cash-for-work, and Li Tong intends to use this money to repair the city. In addition to repairing the houses that were destroyed in the riots, it can also be used to build some infrastructure.
For example, the Longqing Pond in Longqingfang was dug deep and widened, and a section of channel was dug to connect it with the Longshou Canal outside the city, which led directly to Weishui, and transformed into a Caoyun center similar to Shendu Xintan. In this way, the land around the canal can be sold, and the transportation environment of the entire Chang'an can also be improved.
After all, Li Tong does not plan to build another Xingqing Palace in the south, there are already two major palaces in Chang'an City, and it is a waste to rebuild them. Although it is said that Daxing Palace is humid and hot, and Daming Palace is not conducive to defense, there is also a Ziwei Palace in Luoyang, and Mingtang has also been retained, and it is impossible to live if you build too much.
In addition, you can also rely on the high terrain of Leyouyuan in the east of the city, the water from the Ququ River and other garden pools to transform a water supply system, even if it cannot cover the whole city, most of the urban area is no problem.
The technical difficulty of this work is not great, but it is not easy to solve residential land disputes such as garden pond requisition, but this is not a big problem for Li Tong. Those wealthy families in Leyou Yuan don't make trouble, and they always feel that it is useless to raise Wu Youyi.
The guests have jobs and money, so they naturally have the ability to spend. As long as there is a demand for transactions, even if it is for the sake of money, the natives will not be too reluctant to the guests, which is also conducive to the further alleviation of the contradictions between the natives and the guests.
There is a shortage of water in Chang'an, and there are natural factors and human factors. In particular, in the western part of Beijing, the dams were built and the water was hoarded, and sometimes the farmland in the lower reaches dried up and there was no harvest, and the upstream rivers flooded, which greatly damaged the cultivation conditions in Guanzhong.
Li Tong had already ordered Li Zhan to collect these materials, but now there is still a period of time before the Spring Flood, and it is not effective to blackmail the magnates of Chang'an now.
When the river rises and the river officially starts, the river can bring benefits at every moment, and this is a good time to start blackmailing. Either you sit back and watch the money go down the drain, or you obediently pay the money.
Pumping the blood of these nobles in Chang'an is a technical job, and it is not good to greet all the big moves together. It's really forcing people to be anxious, breaking jars and breaking them, turning their faces and making noise, which is not good for everyone. Only by cutting meat with a soft knife can you eat fragrantly and eat to your heart's content.
Paying money to buy a degree and a residence order now is estimated to make these people in Chang'an feel pain for a while, but it will not hurt their muscles and bones. Raise it for a few months, and wait until the turn of spring and summer, and then you can harvest it again.
At the end of the year, Guozijian should be able to brainwash...... A group of Guan Long's children should be selected to join the shogunate, and the problem of the border areas should also be preliminarily resolved.
In this way, in the spring of next year, we can start with the garden industry of the magnates, sweep away a batch, and let some of the guests return to their hometowns. In short, whoever dares to stare at Li Zhaode, my fellow party in the DPRK, I will raid someone's house in Chang'an!
After calculating the family property of Guan Longxun's nobles, Li Tong began to calculate his own property again.
After the revolution in Shendu, his title should be named King Yong from the acting king, although the food is as high as 5,000 households, but none of them have been implemented so far, it's time to sort it out.
"Previously, the assets of more than a dozen fields in the official treasury were looted, half of which were transferred to the kingdom's fields and half to the shogunate's fields. The property of the kingdom is mainly selected in the territory of Duling in the south of Beijing. ”
After Li Tong made a little calculation, he said to Wu Youyi. He now has many part-time jobs, and there are several sets of teams under his command, although their affairs are different, but the fortune and welfare are all under the shogunate, that is, the governor's office, although other official positions are also prominent, but they are not qualified to be called the shogunate.
More than 20 were copied and more than 3,000 hectares of land were collected, half of which was divided into the property of the city and half into the public land. But even so, Li Tong is not the number one tyrant in Chang'an. , people who are wider than him have.
For example, Du Ling, where he chose the Yi property, is the hometown residence of the Wei family and the Du family, a wealthy family in Guanlong. The so-called Chengnan Weidu, go to Tianqiwu, and most of Duling County belong to these two.
Originally, Li Tong didn't plan to attack the Wei Du family so quickly, after all, strictly speaking, they did not belong to the group of Guan Longxun, but a family with a good experience.
But Wei Juyuan, when Li Tong was in Shendu before, he saw that he was honest and didn't like to behave, but he didn't expect that this time he would dare to meddle in his dispute with Guan Longxungui. So Li Tong plans to be a neighbor with his family, don't worry about you or not, Lao Tzu will scare you to death first!
Of course, Li Tong didn't do this purely to scare Wei Juyuan. He suspected that Wei Juyuan was making trouble at the moment, and he might have other ideas, such as welcoming back King Luling and other comical operations.
After all, Li Xian is their Wei's official son-in-law, and just looking at Wang Meichang's daughter is just the emperor's concubine, she can't dance. Don't these people in the Jingzhaowei family look forward to the return of King Luling and take them to heaven together?
For this, Li Tong naturally can't agree, that's my third uncle, I can only use it to scare my fourth uncle, no one else can interfere, and I can't think about it! If Wei Juyuan dared to do this, Li Tong would directly rush to Du Ling to copy his nest!
"Chang Si recently made a deal with the Song Army, and the households do not need to select the local people and the high-ranking households, but can directly select a group of guest people."
Feng Changsi, who stayed in Chang'an, was appointed by Li Tong as the great farmer of the kingdom.
This Xue Huaiyi's nephew has been training in Chang'an for several years, and has gradually become shrewd and capable, and Li Tong is also relieved to entrust the affairs of the kingdom to him.
After hearing this, Feng Changsi got up and responded: "The humble position must give preference to the strong people and strengthen the kingdom's affairs." ”
After learning of his uncle's death in Chang'an City, Feng Changsi also felt a little heartache, but he also understood that his uncle was a little self-inflicted.
Although he secretly hates Wu Youyi in his heart, he is grateful to His Royal Highness King Yong, King Yong is a person of faith, although his uncle offended King Yong a lot during his lifetime, but King Yong still cares about the old feelings, even if his uncle is dead, he also protects their mother and son, gives them a life, and gives himself a future.
"In the kingdom's fields, you can work diligently. Although you are a state official, you still have another appointment in the shogunate, and you want to help the Su County Governor set up the Social Supervision Office as soon as possible. ”
Li Tong's current plot is half of the western part of Beijing, and he doesn't pay much attention to it. It was only when a part of the guest people were incorporated into the service household and some of the guest problems could be solved.
The rich in Chang'an are not only those noble portals, but also the businessmen who gather from all over the world also hold a lot of wealth. The profits of Baoli Xing are so amazing, how could Li Tong ignore these people.
Each of the two cities has its own municipal supervision office, which maintains the market, equalizes prices and collects taxes. However, this management model is still relatively extensive and cannot be extended to the internal order of production, transportation and other industries.
Li Tong also founded the Social Supervision Bureau, which was a supplement to the Municipal Supervision Bureau, and did not face specific merchants, but hundreds of industries in the city, including religious societies such as Jingjiao and Zoroastrianism.
As for how the Social Supervisory Commission should operate, there is no specific charter at present, and it is necessary to bring together the heads of various associations before further discussion and formulation.
After all the orders were completed, the members withdrew to deal with their affairs. Li Tong sat in the hall, holding a letter in his hand, turned his head to look at the north, and muttered: "I hope that the personnel and materials can be determined before the spring, but there is the strength to fight......
Although he has a strong style in Chang'an City, he also understands that his coming to Guanzhong is a dangerous move, and if he walks well, he can enter the world, and if he doesn't go well, he is afraid that he will fail. Now that the crisis has surfaced, it needs to be dealt with with concentration.
