"Pudong New Area?" Lu Yan groaned slightly, and couldn't help but praise: "What a name." The district is also in all directions. The 'new district', 'all directions, salty and new', is not only catchy, but also timeless, it is really elegant and vulgar, catchy! ”

"Hehe, it's too much." Zhao Gongzi couldn't help laughing, he liked the fact that he was a reader, and the sycophants could be filmed so strangely, changing tricks, and not conventional, which can be called a rainbow fart.

In fact, Zhao Hao originally planned to take Xingang as an example and named it Pudong City. But at first, I feel that the nomenclature of Pudong City, Shanghai County, is too Japanese and awkward. Second, the word 'city' was too small in the eyes of the people of the time, and it sounded like a bazaar, which did not fit Zhao Gongzi's positioning of Pudong.

So I used this name 400 years later in advance.

"But why don't you build walls?" Lu Yan was not ignited by the term 'world economic center', after all, whether it was 'world' or 'economy', he didn't understand the meaning, and naturally he couldn't appreciate the weight of these six words. It's a matter of struggling with the city wall.

"Since it's called a new district, of course it has to come up with a new look." Zhao Hao smiled and preached: "Besides, didn't Shanghai County have no city walls? ”

"That's because the county was established too late, and it has never suffered from military disasters before. Later, there was a rebellion, and only in the 32nd year of Jiajing, in the four to six months, he suffered five times in a row. The Japanese robbers burned, killed, plundered, and burned down people's houses, and almost half of the counties and cities were scorched, and the losses were extremely heavy. Lu Yan Zhengse admonished:

Only then did the people learn from the pain, and the people contributed money and efforts to build the current city wall. My mother-in-law, Mrs. Mei, donated land and silver, not to mention, and later the materials for building the city were not enough, and thousands of trees of my Lu ancestral family were demolished for the construction of the city. ”

"Well, the Lu family is amazing." Zhao Hao smacked his lips and said in his heart that these big dogs are all Versailles writers.

"I don't say this to show off, but to remind Childe of the necessity of the city wall." Lu Yan said earnestly.

"Mmmm, I know what you say." Zhao Hao nodded and said: "But the city wall will limit the expansion of the city, when the city grows to the edge of the city wall, the high city wall blocks the traffic, and the original development order is bound to be blocked." If you want to continue to grow, you have to jump out of the walls and rebuild the center outside the city. ”

"Suzhou?" Lu Yan realized.

"Yes, Suzhou is the best example. Where is its most prosperous? Outside the Changmen Gate and Loumen, only by jumping out of the city wall to form a closed space, can the city develop freely. Zhao Hao smiled: "In that case, why should we do it again?" ”

"But is Suzhou walled? Even if it's out of town? I am also a little more steady. Lu Yan said.

"Shanghai County also has a city wall." Zhao Hao smiled and pointed to the blue-gray city wall on the other side of the river.

"Well, that's right." Let him say that? Lu Yan was speechless.

In fact, there is one thing that Zhao Hao didn't say, he spent so much effort to build a ship? If you can't resist the enemy at sea, then what a fart?

Lie flat and wait to die!

~~

"The new district is not only reflected in the city wall, but also in the urban planning? It's about being new and different. Zhao Hao walked on the embankment with Lu Yan while pointing out the rivers and mountains.

"What is urban planning?" Lu Yan hurriedly asked.

"It's a blueprint for the development of the city." Zhao Hao pointed to a large piece of land in Lujiazui and said: "This is a piece of white drawing paper, so as a painter, you have to plan the layout before painting, right?" ”

"Understood." Lu Yan was excited in his heart? There's nothing more fun in the world than this? It's more fulfilling. After speaking, he was a little worried: "But I'm afraid that I haven't built a city?" I can't do it. ”

"No one has any experience in this area, and everything has to be explored by ourselves." The river breeze blew Zhao Hao's clothes and belts, showing his high-spirited spirit more and more. "As for why you? First, you are the general manager of Shangkaishi, and you don't have to do anything. Second, you supervised the construction of the Paradise, and you are not a layman in civil construction. ”

After a pause, he looked at Lu Yan deeply and said: "Three, and the most important point, this Lu Jiazui is named after your ancestral surname, I believe you will be more responsible than anyone else." ”

"Yes." Lu Yan was excited for a while, nodded heavily, and said: "It is our duty to not let our ancestors be ashamed!" ”

"Good, good, with this attitude, it's half the battle." Zhao Hao laughed and said: "The rest is nothing more than listening and watching more, spending more thoughts, brainstorming, and slowly groping." ”

"Understood." Lu Yan nodded again, forcibly suppressed the fierce heartbeat, and said with a smile: "That boy also has to point out a direction first, so that we can have a way to follow." ”

"Then I'll talk about it casually, you can listen dialectically." Zhao Hao smiled fakely. Pudong New Area, of course, will be built according to his wishes.

The reason why I said that to Lu Yan was just a cliché to stimulate the subjective initiative of the people below. If Lu Yan takes it seriously, he will lose.

Fortunately, Lu Yan is old and refined, how could he commit such a childish disease? He hurriedly took out a Huazi...... Chinese brand pencils, as well as the cowhide cover notebook issued by the group, carefully note down every sentence of the child, as the highest spirit of future design.

"First of all, we must clarify the positioning of the city." I heard Zhao Hao talk eloquently: "The group has decided to move the starting place of the Royal Sea to here. In the future, this is the starting point of the shipping of grain, and the grain from Huguang and Jiangnan will be continuously transported here, and a new rice market will soon be formed outside the four major rice markets. ”

"And you also understand that the grain only accounts for a small part of the capacity of the coast guard, and its real main business is north-south freight transportation and overseas trade. Therefore, it will become the trade window of the entire Jiangnan, and in a short period of time, department stores will gather, and it will become a commercial center that is no less than Suzhou, and even surpasses Suzhou in the future. ”

"Yes." After so much empirical evidence, Lu Yan was naturally convinced of Zhao Hao's judgment, and suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.

In addition, Pudong has 1.2 million acres of land. The group also negotiated with Jinshanwei in Benlin to include their 600,000 mu of land in the scope of farm operations, so there are 1.8 million mu of land available for development. Zhao Hao said again.

"One million acres, two Shanghai counties." Lu Yan whispered.

"Most of these 1.8 million acres will be used to grow cotton and mulberry." Zhao Hao continued: "So we still have the conditions to turn Pudong into the center of the textile industry. ”

"That's going to be a lot of people." Lu Yan couldn't help laughing and said: "Fortunately, Daming is not short of people." ”

"Well, we have two or three hundred million people." Zhao Hao smiled and bowed his head. Jiangnan is densely populated, and it also attracts displaced people from all over the country like a magnet. There is only a surplus of population, and there is no shortage, which is where the confidence of his ambition lies.

If you change to a country with a population of several million, and rashly open a new map, where can you find someone to fill it in?

This is also the reason why it was difficult for the European powers to territorialize their colonies. When the Ming Dynasty began to colonize, Zhao Gongzi wanted them to see what cruelty was.

~~

In fact, Zhao Gongzi also plans to build Pudong into the financial center of the future Ming Dynasty...... After becoming a center for business and the textile industry, this is almost a certainty. However, in view of the understanding barrier of the time, it was not listed.

"So we can plan different functional areas according to the future development direction." Zhao Hao bent his fingers and said: "It can be roughly divided into the port area along the river, the Lujiazui business area, the residential area, the industrial area and the agricultural area. It is best to locate the industrial zone in the suburbs, away from the commercial area, between the residential area and the agricultural area, which can reduce the cost of the factory and protect the land price of the commercial area. But how to divide it, you also have to adapt to local conditions, how to adapt to the suitability, how to come. ”

"Understood." Lu Yan hurriedly made a record, and when Zhao Gongzi said this, he felt much more transparent.

"Once the functional area is decided, it's time for the road design. Roads are to cities what blood vessels are to people...... Don't know what blood vessels are? You should be the meridians. The city's roads should also be divided into five types of roads: main roads, secondary roads, boulevards, inner streets and suburban roads, and be built according to different widths and forms. This is not difficult to understand, but the standard should be set as high as possible to build ahead of the future. For example, the main road, I think it can be set at ten zhang wide, don't feel wasted, and it will hurt the vitality of demolition and widening in the future. ”

Zhao Hao then said: "All roads must be built into cement roads, but before building roads and houses, we must first make great efforts to build an underground pipe network. ”

"Underground pipe network?" Lu Yan couldn't understand it again.

"It's a sewer, which functions like a gutter, but is buried in the ground, not just in an open gutter, or covered only with stone slabs." Zhao Hao reminded him: "Actually, this is not a new thing, someone in the Song Dynasty has done it, as far as I know, in Ganzhou City, Jiangxi, there is a complete set of sewers, nearly two meters high, more than one meter wide, the kind that can walk inside." Five hundred years later, it's still working well. Moreover, the topography of Ganzhou City and Pudong is very close, and it is also built near the river, which should be very valuable for reference, you should go to the field to take a closer look, and then hire some craftsmen from the local sewer repair, it must be very helpful. ”

"Understood, I'll go back and arrange it." Lu Yan responded energetically.

"Good, very energetic. We are not just copying Ganzhou, but also surpassing them, otherwise how can it be called a new area? Zhao Hao challenged with a smile:

"I want our sewers to be able to divert rain and sewage. It is to build two sets of sewer networks, one to discharge rainwater directly into the river. The other sends the sewage to a treatment plant in the suburbs, where it is sedimentated and then composted. Zhao Gongzi said with a smile:

"And in the pipeline, we will install water supply pipes, so that every household will have clean tap water in the future." Zhao Hao said with a smile: "I also want to let rich people who don't want to go to the public toilet use flush toilets at home!" ”

"Running water, flush toilets?" Listening to these new words, Lu Yan felt like a dream. Just listening to Zhao Gongzi, he has an urge to live in such a city.

But I feel that it is difficult to build such a dream city as a city.
