"If you want to get rich, build roads first!" Su Luosheng said thoughtfully.

Merton nodded and said, "Yes, not to mention anything else, just the land within ten miles of the official road in the south of the city, the price has doubled." ”

Not to mention anything else, the villages on both sides of the road made a lot of money just by selling land, and the premium wealth was not brought by the brick road?

Su Luosheng looked at the brick road under his feet, and said in his heart: "The old man believes that it is impossible for the eyes of the Marquis of Mo to not foreshadow today, could it be that Mojia Village has not bought some land." ”

According to Su Luosheng's idea, since Merton knew that the price of the land on both sides of the brick road was going to rise, wouldn't he have started early and made a lot of money, maybe even the money for road construction could be earned.

Merton was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect Su Luosheng to have such advanced ideas, and he would coincide with a certain oil tycoon in later generations.

"The county lord is wise, Mojia Village did buy a few pieces of land before this, but they were all purchased according to double the market price, the Mo family will not make such money, the Mo family is just to seize some convenient land." Merton Road.

In this era of the most important reputation, if the Mo family takes the opportunity to make a lot of money, so that the villages on both sides of the brick road in the south of the city suffer, then I am afraid that the reputation will be ruined, and the gains outweigh the losses, and the land on both sides of the transfer road can only be used for industrial land now, the value of the increase is not large, there is no need to lose the reputation of Mojia Village, it is better to win with the villages in the south of the city, only double the price, and lead the land price on both sides of the brick road.

Su Luosheng nodded with satisfaction, if it were someone else, he would definitely not be able to withstand such a temptation.

Su Luosheng and Merton visited the first industrial transfer of Chang'an City, and many anxious merchants on both sides of the brick road have begun to level the land and enclose the territory.

"Lord County, I don't know if I should mention it in the next suggestion!" Merton said.

Su Luosheng hurriedly said: "If you can let Lord Mo take the initiative to make a suggestion, it is naturally not trivial, but this official can't ask for it, so listen to it." ”

Merton thought for a moment and said: "I often wander around in the east and west cities, there is a lot of noise and smell in the east and west cities, and the surrounding merchants are unbearable, and even pile up a lot of flammable things. ”

Chang'an City is the economic center of the Tang Dynasty, and there are not a few similar chemical products in the east and west, such as the place where mercury is refined in the back street of Xuanduguan, the iron shop in the east market, the sound of striking iron is not extinguished in the middle of the night, and even some flammable things are piled up wantonly.

Su Luosheng frowned slightly and said, "Does Lord Mo mean to move all these merchants out of Chang'an City?" ”

If that's the case, Merton seems to have some personal vendetta to take advantage of the opportunity to attack rivals.

Merton hurriedly waved his hand and said: "There is absolutely no selfishness in Xia, Chang'an City is mostly wooden buildings, flammable things are piled up wantonly, and there are even many fires that are not extinguished all year round, once a fire occurs, the consequences are unimaginable." Over the years, most of the fires in Chang'an City may have originated from this.

Su Luosheng nodded heavily, during his tenure, most of the fires in Chang'an City occurred in the East City and the West City.

At the same time, these furnaces have been burned and smelted for many years, and the smell is skyrocketing, according to the doctor's investigation, after the human body breathes the odor, it mostly occurs in lung diseases. The relocation of such merchants out of Chang'an City is also for the health of the people. Merton said.

"And it is said that the eldest grandson queen often suffers from qi diseases, and the fresh air is conducive to the recovery of the queen's body." Merton finally mentioned Su Luosheng again.

Su Luosheng's eyes lit up, no matter how much Morton said before, the last sentence didn't work, and he said without hesitation: "What Lord Mo said is very true, piling up flammable things in Chang'an City, and burning and smelting are indeed very harmful, and this official will definitely ask the emperor to move such merchants out of Chang'an City as soon as possible, and give the people a healthy air." ”

This move will definitely solve the fire hazard in Chang'an City, and it can please the emperor and queen, as long as Su Luosheng is not stupid, he naturally knows what to do.

Su Luosheng looked at Merton and said thoughtfully: "How about moving all of them to the official road south of the city?" ”

Since Merton gave him such a big gift, he naturally wanted to repay the favor and increase the influence of the official road in the south of the city again.

When Mo heard this, he immediately said aggrievedly: "Mo is kind enough to help the county lord, why does the county lord want to harm me." ”

Su Luosheng was stunned when he heard this, and said puzzledly: "Why did Lord Mo say this, the official road in the south of the city has convenient transportation, and it is actually the only place for merchants to choose a location, so why harm Lord Mo's words." ”

Merton hugged and said: "The reason why these merchants moved out of Chang'an City is for the clean air of Chang'an City, why did the county lord move these poisonous gases to the direction of Mojia Village." ”

Su Luosheng suddenly realized that the Mo family was not here to gather these industries and increase the wealth effect of the official road in the south of the city. , but wants to drive these industries out of the official road in the south of the city.

Mo Dun is also helpless, after the brick road is opened, this kind of merchants have bought land on the official road in the south of the city, he doesn't want to go from Chang'an City to Mojia Village on the way to the chimney towering, the black smoke covers the sky and the sun, the bald mountains and stinky water, a dilapidated place, I had to call Su Luosheng a few words, I didn't expect it to be counterproductive.

"What does the Marquis of Emerme mean?" Su Luosheng respectfully asked.

Merton pointed to the yellow leaves that drifted away with the northeast wind, and said: "The northeast wind prevails in Chang'an City all year round, so in order to endanger Chang'an City with poisonous gases, Mo believes that it is better to take the northwest and southeast, and the south is secondary. ”

Su Luosheng secretly admired in his heart, everyone is accustomed to the common problem of wind direction, and Mo Jiazi actually used it here.

Merton continued: "However, most of the incineration and smelting capitals also need water sources to drain some sewage, and the rivers in Chang'an City run from east to west, so why not let this wastewater harm the imperial capital, there is only one place." ”

"Southeast!" Su Luosheng took a deep breath and said.

Merton nodded.

"But there is no brick road in the southeast, so how can these merchants be willing to go." Su Luo was embarrassed.

Merton smiled confidently and said, "If the county lord specially builds a brick road from Chang'an City to the southeast, how can these merchants be unwilling. This is to build a nest to attract phoenixes. The county lord planted the plane tree, which naturally attracted the golden phoenix. ”

Su Luosheng said angrily: "Your Mojia Village spent 20,000 yuan to build a fifty-mile brick road, do you think Chang'an County can have so much money to build roads?" ”

Morton shook his head and said with a smile: "Why is the county lord holding the golden rice bowl and crying poor, and he doesn't know if he is empty." ”

"I don't know that I have an empty treasure mountain?" Su Luosheng's eyes widened and he looked at Merton in confusion.

"Lord Xianzun has a lot of public land in his hands!" Merton said.

Su Luosheng nodded, the uniform land system is a public ownership of land, and the land allocated to the people is generally divided into public land and Yongye field, Yongye field is privately owned by the people themselves, and the public land needs to be returned to the imperial court after the death of the public land Ding Hu, and in addition, the county government also has a lot of public land as a public use.
