The plan of Dongmen City is based on the ditch outside the east gate of Bairen City, extending 300 meters to the west, and building a main street - named Dongmen Street. A horizontal street is built every 100 meters on both sides of the street, forming a vertical and horizontal layout. Plots of land of different sizes are carved out on both sides of the street, which can be sold to shops to build their own houses, and traversers will also build some shop-fronted houses on both sides of Dongmen Street for merchants to rent and operate.

"Your plan is so big, not to mention how many construction resources it will occupy, are there so many merchants in Lingao to rent your shop? You don't have to ask the vegetable vendor to rent it, right? ”

"Lingao's economy is very small, basically a natural economy, isn't this market exaggerated?" Cheng Dong expressed concern.

Dongmen Blowing Rain is confident: "This is a long-term plan, and we plan to carry out the first phase of the project first." ”

The first phase of the project included the construction of a 100-metre street and supporting sewers, and the construction of a mule and horse inn, a type of inn commonly found on the old official roads and large bazaars. There was a large courtyard in the inn, which was used for leashing mules and horses and parking vehicles; There is a warehouse, the merchant can temporarily store the goods, there is a kitchen, the water and fire are convenient, but there is no food, the merchant has to make his own fire. The accommodation is mainly in bunk beds, but there are also some single rooms. It is a place where small and medium-sized merchants often stay.

A restaurant - he explained that the travelers were now interacting more and more with the locals, and needed a place outside the city where they could meet, talk, and eat, and also serve wealthy merchants.

On the opposite side of the building of the management office, a merchant hall was built. The merchanthouse borrowed some of the models of the British East India Company's merchanthouse: a building surrounded by high walls that housed a merchant; There are warehouses and empty yards for storing stacked goods; There are also guest rooms, restaurants, and meeting rooms for important merchants.

Hara Jihua was going to bring tap water to Dongmen City, but it was still difficult to supply water over long distances. Instead, several wells were dug, one of which was a public well, to provide drinking water for people and livestock free of charge. In Zuihou, public toilets will also be built - the problem of open defecation among the locals who come to Dongmun to do business these days is already a headache for everyone.

Even the issue of greening has been taken into account - you must know that there is no greening project in Bairen City so far, and street trees will be planted on both sides of Dongmen Street, and the species of trees will be selected by the agricultural department. Wu Nanhai immediately said that he would study it.

As for security, Dugu proposed that there was no need to worry, the main building of the market was a brick and stone structure, the doors and windows were clad in iron, and the four corners of the wall of the merchant hall were also prepared to build a tower each. Even if someone comes to attack, they won't be able to rush in for a while, and the turrets and watchtowers on the earthen ramparts of Bairen City are even closer. As for the small-scale riots and robberies, he applied for the rationing of 10 pairs of stab-proof vests, stab-proof gloves, and batons, and formed the "Dongmen City Comprehensive Management and Law Enforcement Team" with the existing staff -- "Promise that no one will be arrogant here" Dugu proposed marriage.

"These can be given to you." "But what are you going to do to attract investment?" ”

"I want to talk about the general idea, which is quite big and complex. What do you think? ”

After getting everyone's permission, Dongmen Fuyu picked up the folder on the table. This business plan was mainly discussed between him and Yan Maoda, who is the manager of a jewelry company and is currently accompanying Xiao Zishan to Guangzhou, and Zhang Xin, who is the sales section chief of a small shipyard. However, neither of them is interested in local business, so they are too lazy to compete with Dongmen, and the cooperation is more pleasant.

The current prosperity of Dongmen City is based on the large-scale purchase of building traversers, and the huge consumption of more than 500 high-consumption modern people, which attracts many people to come here for business and trade. However, the market development supported by such large-scale group procurement is limited, so how can people from the whole county and even neighboring counties come to this place to do business and consume? The first plan they came up with was: building roads.

The location of Bairen City is ideal. It is the middle section of Bopu Bay, the gateway port of the county to the county. It is located in the center of both sides of the Wenlan River, the most economically developed and most populous in the county, and the geographical location extends in all directions. At present, the highway of Bairencheng-Bopu has been built, and the highway extending to Lingao County is also under construction, and it will not be long before the county and Bopu Port will be fully connected. Not only can businessmen from the mainland easily and quickly reach the county seat, but residents living on both sides of the Wenlan River can also easily and quickly reach the county seat through this highway.

However, the highway is located in the east of the river, and it is difficult for the people in the west of the river to enjoy the convenient transportation, and the east gate blows the rain to propose to build a temporary bridge in the upstream of the Bairen Hydropower Station to open up the north-south traffic, so that the people nearby do not need to detour to the Wenshui Bridge in front of the south gate of the county to cross the river

As long as there is a continuous flow of people passing through Bairen City, Dongmen Market, the only market on the highway, will form a distribution center for people and materials, and commerce will naturally prosper

He agreed with the proposal to build a bridge. Now after the construction of the industrial zone in Hexi, it is very inconvenient to cross the people and materials to return to the capital, and building a bridge is indeed a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

The east gate blows rain and says that the common people basically dare not walk on the highway now, and there are turrets and cars running. Everyone is more afraid.

"That's fine, it's easy to fix." Wen Desi frowned, "But the people of this time and space don't have the concept of traffic rules, will our cars hit people when they run on the road?" ”

"No, we only have a few cars, it's not a big event at all, now the fastest on the road is a bicycle, the biggest is a four-wheeled carriage, and the safety problem is not big."

The second option is to attract foreign businessmen. The business sector received a clear message from the Intelligence Group: Lingao is not a good market, and its economic structure is not only a natural economy, but also a particularly backward natural economy. Needless to say, the total economic volume and purchasing power are not at the level of the Jiangnan and Guangdong regions in the Ming Dynasty, even in the general northern densely populated areas. Modern goods such as mirrors, glasses, lighters, etc., will not work here, and can only be sold on the mainland. The most haode state is that merchants come to purchase, rather than to sell by themselves.

In addition to the future industrial products, Lingao itself also has many local products exported. After checking the historical data, it is known that the bulk export materials of the Ming Dynasty were cattle, salt, red and white vine and betel nut. Most of the red and white rattan and betel nut are imported from the Litong area, processed and then exported to the mainland, which is the most profitable commodity.

However, for a long time, except for salt, which was shipped and exported from Bopu and Mayuan in the prefecture, most of the exported goods were shipped to Fucheng and exported from Shenying Port. If the exported goods can be exported at Bopu, Dongmen City, which has superior transportation conditions, will become a distribution center for mainland merchants to buy local products.

"Now we can't control the betel nut trade, but we have controlled the production of salt, and I propose that the production and sales of salt be completely controlled, so that the salt shop in Dongmen City will become the main wholesale store of Lingao salt. Full control over the wholesale of table salt. If the merchant wants to buy salt, he must come to the city of Bairen. "Dongmen blows rain and says with his eyes shining - monopoly, monopoly, how much money comes from you!

Other proposals include the exemption of the "pumping" and berthing taxes at Bopu to attract merchant ships from coastal trade. To provide haode business environment, such as duty-free, warehousing and freight services, Dongmen Blowing Rain even proposed to use the base in Guangzhou to carry out Hainan-Guangzhou commercial wireless telegraph services, and report the market conditions of Guangzhou and Macao daily.

With these benefits, merchants on the mainland will naturally move the purchase and processing center of local products to Lingao, and with this, there will be an inflow of many permanent residents and foreign populations, and the stimulating effect on the economy is obvious. In the future, after the people produce modern industrial products by themselves, they can use their channels to sell goods and purchase materials to the mainland, so as not to have to do everything themselves.

The business plan was approved. The construction team complained bitterly, and they had a lot of tasks: the road to the county seat had just been completed; Nearly 200 families who migrated from Damei Village needed resettlement housing; There are still many works going on in the city itself. Now there is another Dongmen City development project. Brick kilns and cement kilns start production day and night. There is a shortage of labor everywhere. Ma Qianzhu, who is in charge of the general coordination of the center, is anxious.

This will him find Wu Nanhai, and said with a gloomy face: "Nanhai, your task has increased again. In the future, 800 more meals will be prepared every day for the villagers who have moved from Damei Village. There is an urgent need for this group of labor. ”

This notice frightened Wu Nanhai into a gasp: he had only provided food for 700 people a day at most. Adding 800 people out of thin air now is not a big leap forward in the form of satellites. Not to mention, the kitchen equipment alone is not enough.

"The Planning Commission has just brought back a batch of war booty from Damei Village, all of which are the Gou family's kitchen and daily necessities. You go pick and choose. Ma Qianzhuo sat behind a rosewood slip and wrote a note, stamped it with a private seal and handed it to him - there is no official seal at the moment, and all kinds of documents are subject to the signatures of the executive committee and the leader of the professional group.

"If we don't farm, it's too late to cook!" Wu Nanhai broke out because he was always busy being the head of the army recently, and he didn't have time to engage in his beloved agriculture.

"People, you can choose, some women from the people who migrated from Damei Village helped. The main thing is to be reliable, and no one who has anything to do with the Gou family should be wanted. By the way, we can't let the locals handle our food, and it's best to eat in separate places, understand? ”

"How do I know who is related to the Gou family?"

"The public security team is conducting a political review of them one by one, and you will select a batch of materials when they come out."
