The Shimenshan Economic Development Zone occupies a radius of 300 miles, which is not so much a city as a large village with a fence. The entire Shimen Economic Development Zone is divided into five areas: central, south, west, north and east, each of which occupies a radius of 60 miles.

This easternmost area is the garrison of the Shenwu Army, and with the Shenwu Army stationed here, the security of the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone is naturally beyond doubt. The middle area is the Trade Zone, which is simply a 10-mile free trade market with 3,000 shops built around it. To the south is the scientific research area, which will become the scientific research base of Daqin. To the north is the factory, where Li Chen will build a new factory and increase the output of various objects that are conducive to the development of Daqin. To the south is a residential area, which is partly used to settle people living in the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone, and is more used to receive businessmen who come to trade.

The walls of Shimenshan Economic Development Zone are all made of reinforced concrete structures, and the roads in the Economic Development Zone are also blue-gray cement roads, and drainage ditches have been poured on both sides of the road, so that even in heavy rainy days, there will be no rainwater drainage in the Economic Development Zone. Of course, the houses in the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone are still blue brick houses, although Li Chen also wants to use reinforced concrete to pour the houses, but he is not clear about various mechanical knowledge, and it is safer to use green bricks.

To say that in the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone, the most prosperous is the residential area. This residential area is not only for foreign businesses to provide accommodation, but also full of all kinds of formal and informal entertainment venues.

The construction of Shimenshan Economic Development Zone lasted for three months, and nearly 100,000 people were invested in the joint construction, which was naturally spectacular to the extreme. Although he paid a great price, Li Chen did not lose money, on the contrary, although the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone was not officially operated, this has made Li Chen make a lot of money.

Needless to say, the 3,000 trading shops are the bottom line for the chambers of commerce to be able to operate in the Shimenshan Special Economic Zone in the future, and they are naturally auctioned at high prices. In addition to these 3,000 shops, many residential houses in residential areas have also been sold, and some houses in good locations have been sold for sky-high prices.

The construction of the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone has come to an end, and in Li Chen's plan, various factories can be opened in the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone this month, and once the factories produce again, the shops in the trade zone can start trading.

"Master Hou."

"Master Hou."

Li Chen walked around the Shimenshan Special Economic Zone, and the workers around him who were busy finishing up greeted him one after another. This is the biggest project he has led since he came to Daqin. It is conceivable that after the establishment of the Shimenshan Special Economic Zone, Daqin's economy will inevitably develop rapidly.

"Master Hou, I didn't expect that in just three months, we have done such a big thing in just three months." Li Chen was surrounded by everyone and walked slowly, Liu Bang pointed to the buildings around him and said excitedly.

In the past few months, Liu Bang can be said to have made a lot of efforts. During the day, he stayed at the construction site all day and was responsible for ensuring the progress of the project. In the evening, they have to socialize with large merchants from all over the world to ensure that they can settle in Shimenshan Economic Development Zone as soon as possible. Such a hard-working Liu Bang really impressed Li Chen, and Li Chen also felt that he shouldn't be looking at Liu Bang with colored glasses. Maybe he is really a hero in troubled times, a capable minister who governs the world, as long as Daqin is not chaotic, then he Liu Bang will not be chaotic.

"Next month, presumably the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone will be able to officially accept the settlement, and then the businessmen from Tiannan and Haibei will gather together, and it will be difficult to manage the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone at that time."

"Liu Bang, what do you think about how to manage the Shimenshan Special Economic Zone?" Li Chen thought for a while and asked Liu Bang.

Hearing Li Chen's question, Liu Bang pondered for a while and said, "Since the Shenwu Army is stationed here, it is better to implement military control. ”

"Businessmen advocate freedom, and the reason why I established the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone is also for freedom of trade. The Shenwu Army is only responsible for solving the external enemy, and this internal security problem needs to be solved by itself. Your Majesty has promised that the entire Shimenshan Economic Development Zone will be managed by me. Li Chen looked around and said.

This Shimenshan Economic Development Zone, which occupies a radius of 300 miles, is completely comparable to ordinary small cities. And this is a small city on the edge of Xianyang, and the first emperor is completely entrusted to Li Chen to manage by himself, what a trust.

"If there are more people, there will naturally be all kinds of problems, and a special yamen should be set up to be responsible for public security, taxation and other issues." Liu Bang thought about it, and also said what he thought in his heart.

What Liu Bang said was naturally what Li Chen thought. Shimenshan Economic Development Zone is no smaller than a county seat, and in order to prevent any chaos in the future, it is necessary to formulate rules in advance.

"I plan to set up two yamen in the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone, one for the tax department and the other for the police department. This tax department is responsible for supervising the accounts of each merchant and the collection of taxes. The Police Department is responsible for law and order in the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone. Li Chen said.

Not to mention the police department, it is just to manage the public security issues of the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone, not the Feishui Yamen. But this tax department is not simple, and it is conceivable that the Shimenshan Economic Development Zone will inevitably become the center of Daqin's economy. And Shimenshan Economic Development Zone will inevitably become Li Chen's money bag, so the person in charge of the tax department is equivalent to Li Chen's household book.

"Liu Bang, I plan to make you the director of this tax department, do you have the confidence to do a good job?" Li Chen looked at Liu Bang with blazing eyes.

Liu Bang was still thinking just now, this position is only afraid of Chen Ping, after all, these people are all generals, and in addition to Chen Ping, there is only one person who is not a general around Li Chen, and there is only one Du Bishu, who is in charge of the Maritime Administration in Donghai County. Liu Bang never expected that such an important position could fall on him.

"Hou Ye rest assured, if I, Liu Bang, have the trust of Hou Ye, I will let me thunder and die with a thousand knives." Liu Bang knelt down on one knee and said solemnly.

For Liu Bang and Li Chen, he has always been very reluctant in his heart, and this time it is also a temptation to let him take charge of the money bag. This is an extremely capable person, and it is impossible for Li Chen not to use it all the time. It is more reliable to let him manage the money than to let him be in charge of the army. And according to Liu Bang's recent performance, he should not have the intention of betraying Daqin.

In the final analysis, Li Chen's ability to reuse Liu Bang is also a challenge to himself, and he believes that he can handle this Han Gaozu in his previous life. If he wants to become the leader in this world, if Li Chen doesn't even dare to use Liu Bang, then why should he be a trendsetter in this era.
