Chapter 682: Choosing a Place to Build a City
Bianliang, the yamen of the military department.
Since Yang Lin was crowned king, he has not been in Mingtang for a long time, unless there is an urgent government matter, he will stay in Zhaodefang in the town.
Today, I brought a group of guards to the military headquarters in order to confirm the supply of the front line, especially the situation of cotton clothes.
In the lobby, Liu Zhongwu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, personally took a bunch of official documents and accounts and counted them one by one in front of Yang Lin.
"How do you make so many cotton clothes?" Yang Lin asked with a smile, in a very good mood.
Liu Zhongwu said with a smile: "Shaozai, there is now a kind of water-powered spinning wheel in Jiangnan, which only needs three or five women to weave cloth, and it can control a workshop and produce a steady stream of cloth. As long as our order is placed on the sleeve floor, it can be made up quickly, and the official personally tries it out, which is very warm. ”
"Speaking of which, this is still Shaozai's achievement, and this thing was developed from Zhaodefang at the beginning."
Yang Lin suddenly remembered, his face was bright, and he laughed: "That's why I promoted Yang Xue." ”
The efficiency of the weaving workshops in Jiangnan, coupled with the return of labor to the farmland after the liberation of forced labor, increased the production of cotton and grain.
In this way, what do you want to spend with me?
Liu Zhongwu took out another official document and said, "Shaozai, this is what our military department is preparing to report, please open a military school building in the Daimyo Mansion and develop new military equipment." ”
Yang Lin took it, took a cursory glance, and said on the spot: "You go and tell Bai Shizhong, I am allowed to do this." ”
Now that the whole country finally has the consciousness of tilting resources to cultivate various talents, Yang Lin is too late to be happy, and he will definitely not stop it.
Leaving the Yamen of the Ministry of War, Yang Lin took a turn around the street at will, carefully observing and figuring out this world-famous capital.
The streets of Bianliang are not as regular as Chang'an back then, and here they are free and loose like the people of Bianliang.
The waterways in the city are vertical and horizontal, and there are more than 20 bridges alone, and it is also a real water city.
Through these waterways, hundreds of boats compete for swims on the Bianhe River, and the sails are like clouds.
Lake boats, saury boats, fish boats, foothead boats, beach boats, boat boats, and flying canopy boats are all kinds and have their own functions. Like a blood transfusion, the two Zhejiang cloth silks, Guangdong pearls, Shuzhong tea, Luoxia huangji, Anyi's jujubes, Jiangling's oranges, Chen Xia's lacquer, Qilu's hemp, ginger's guigao grain, silk silk cloth wisps, stuffed salt and soy sauce, rice and wheat grains, were imported into Tokyo one by one.
There are also many shops along the Bianhe River, selling a dazzling array of goods, such as the fur and rhinoceros of the Tufan Uighurs, the grain of the Jianghuai, the aquatic products of the coastal areas, the cattle and sheep of Mongolia, the fans of Dongying, the ink of Goryeo, the spices and pearls of Dashi, and the wine, fruits, tea, silk, paper, and books from all over the country.
There are also some small shops selling snacks, such as cooked sheep's head, grilled lamb's face, belly lungs, kidney crabs, clams, jujube sand dumplings, fragrant candy, and fragrant candy.
Gaoyang Zhengdian, Rendian, Zhuangyuan Building, Qingfeng Building, Panlou Hotel... Xixi Lou Amusement: Elephant Shed, East and West Teaching Workshop, Bathroom Yard, Wheel Yard, Wenzhou Lacquerware, Incense Pharmacy, Ghost Market... There are many shops, bustling and lively.
There are eight city gates, and there are four water gates in the water gate, the corner gate on the north bank of the Bianhe River, the water gate of the Cai River, and the corner gate on the south bank of the Bianhe River.
No matter how you look at it, this is a majestic, large-scale, and splendid capital.
If you want to find a city and replace it, you will not be able to build it for a while.
However, Yang Lin's heart to move the capital was already very firm, and he had to hurry up and start doing it at this time.
As soon as he looked up, there was an antique building complex in front of him, which was staggered, the carved railings were quaint and pleasant, and the small bead curtains were dark and quiet, which seemed to be much quieter. Those pavilions and courtyards are built near the water, the door is open on the side of the street, and the backyard doors and windows are mostly on the waterfront side.
Yang Lin is experienced and knows at a glance that this is the Goolan Tile House in Bianliang, Tokyo, and the painting boat yacht is a place for fun.
I didn't expect to come to such a place, so I just discussed it here.
He walked in, turned around and said to Lu Qian: "I've been walking for so long, I'm here to ask for a cup of tea, you go and find Yin Muhong for me." ”
Lu Qian took the order and left, and several guards surrounded him in, and there was a private residence in the house, where the owner was drawing eyebrows and sideburns.
The room is elegantly furnished, with a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, and a few small ones on both sides of the hall. There are a few dishes of seasonal fruits on the table, a small red clay stove at the door, the charcoal fire is booming, and the water on the stove is boiling.
Seeing Yang Lin coming in, he was wearing an unspeakably expensive outfit, and there were a few guards guarding him, so he knew that he was a dignitary.
A little maid who was disgusted and happy came out and said with a smile: "Honored guests, please, have you ever placed a famous post and made an appointment?" ”
Yang Lin waved his hand and said, "Today I just borrowed the precious land to discuss some things, Old Man Zhu, go and settle the tariff." ”
After a while, the owner of this room, Su Nuannuan, who was about seventeen or eighteen years old, was a woman with outstanding appearance, served tea with both hands, and respectfully handed it to the private room.
Yang Lin smiled and thanked him, this female was wearing a half-breasted large-sleeved shirt, and a tempting furrow appeared on the white and tender Saixue's crisp breasts, and she reached out to hand over the tea, and the skin of the two jade arms was also faintly visible.
Seeing that they didn't mean to leave her, the woman was a little disappointed and made a gesture to withdraw.
In Bianliang, such nobles generally like to come to this kind of place.
There are no tables and chairs for hospitality, but they still sit on the ground and serve tea on a low table. The beauty is like jade, accompanying aside, pouring tea and water, serving diligently, the wind chimes jingle under the corridor, and the artistic conception is really different.
However, there are also some who discuss confidential matters, so they like to only open private rooms and not call girls.
The person in front of him is unspeakably expensive, and it is expected that there is a confidential consultation, Su Nuannuan secretly screamed a pity. She has just begun to stand up to the door, the whole courtyard and the people are serving her, they are all counting on her to eat, to feed so many people, Xiao Nizi can't wait to know more dignitaries.
Of course, if he knew what was being discussed today, he would probably be able to guess the identity of the guest very quickly.
Su Nuannuan was just about to go out, Yang Lin felt a little tired, and he was a little uncomfortable lying backwards, so he said, "There is a soft collapse... Forget it, you stay, sit behind me, and let me lie down for a while. ”
Su Nuannuan's expression was a little angry, like a first-class actress like her, although she entertained people with sex, she did not serve the pillow.
The living place is also a quiet room, three or four halls, the courtyard has a flower rockery, a strange stone basin pool, its small room curtain couch, left and right history, full of talent. They are often down-to-earth and generous, talking extraordinary, and can take care of all aspects of the guests and enliven the scene; The second is piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can sing and dance.
Those rich and noble, when discussing the gains and losses, bargaining, may not be convenient to put forward conditions in person, then there must be a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing from all sides, from which to thread the needle, communicate and coordinate, alleviate contradictions, and promote political alliances and shopping mall cooperation.
This person is naturally the first-class Youling, and her real means of making money come from this. Most guests also know that no one will force them to wait for them.
Therefore, the first-class Qinglou Mingji, the way to make money is to do 'projects', which is called public relations in later generations, rather than the general Qinglou, which makes money by operating the pillow business.
The person in front of her, when they met for the first time, asked her to make the chair-like object, Su Nuannuan was disgusted, but said with a smile: "This is a little inconvenient." ”
A personal guard stepped forward and whispered to her, Su Nuannuan immediately looked moved, and walked over with a smile, letting Yang Lin rest comfortably on his chest.
Yang Lin rubbed it, a little soft, but obviously not developed yet.
That Su Nuannuan didn't dare to move, and her legs trembled a little nervously, if her predecessors knew about it, she would definitely hate to scold the tyrannical things.
When you meet this master, you don't use fox tricks, and let him fly, but it will be a big loss.
Her hands were shaking in her sleeves, and her mind was full of rumors about this person.
After a while, Yin Muhong hurried over and entered the courtyard with Lu Qian.
A personal guard led them to the private room, Yin Muhong hugged his fists, then sat down and asked, "Shaozai, isn't it for the matter of moving the capital today?" ”
When he came, he asked Lu Qian, saying that Shaozai had been wandering around the city for a long time, and he already had a plan in his heart. Now it is worth Shaozai to do in person, which is nothing more than moving the capital.
Yang Lin nodded and said, "I intend to build a new city, set it as Kyoto, and replace Bianliang." ”
Su Nuannuan, the "pillow" behind him, was so shocked that he didn't dare to move when he heard this.
It's really a big deal...
