……

January is fast approaching and the weather is getting warmer.

The winter wheat on both sides of the Wei River has grown more than a foot high, the flowers and plants on both sides of the river have also broken the ground and sprouted, some trees that are not afraid of the cold have also begun to bloom, and many beautiful ladies and sisters have also been eager to change into thin spring skirts.

Before you know it, spring has come again.

During this time, in addition to accompanying Ying Shiyan, who was already pregnant, Chen Xu also took the time to gather Meng Yun and other groups of gentlemen, Zhang Cang, Hu Kuan, and officials and craftsmen from the Inner History Mansion and the Ministry of Household Affairs to inspect several places on both sides of the Wei River, and finally finalized the location of the Keju Commercial Plaza.

The city of Xianyang on the north bank of the Wei River has been overcrowded, and there are some palaces being built one after another, there is no suitable place for a long time, although the river beach near the Weihe Bridge outside the east gate is open enough, but because the terrain is relatively low, it is not suitable for building super-large buildings, so after several investigations, Chen Xu and the officials of the Inner History Office decided to build this Keju field on the south bank of the Wei River.

There is a large open space between Huayang Palace and Xingle Palace, there are farmland and farmers, and there are some private houses that are not planned to be built, most of these houses are rammed earth and stone structures, most of them are thatched houses, sparsely connected and look very disorganized.

The most important thing is that this location is close to the riverbank, not far from the Weihe Bridge, after the construction is almost in the middle of the Xianyang Palace and the Chang'an Palace, according to the long-term planning of the Inner History Mansion and the emperor and Chen Xu's development of Xianyang in the future, it will definitely develop into a new city, and it will definitely be the most prosperous location in the future. In a few years, it will form a very prosperous area, and a large number of merchants who cannot find shops and locations in Xianyang City will gather here.

After finding a good place, the action of the Inner History Mansion was very fast, two days later, Chen Xu specially went to the court to propose the construction of this grand commercial building, the internal history of Qi Tang also submitted the planning plan of the Keju field on the court, and the three provinces and six ministries discussed the emperor after the emperor waved his sleeves and made a decision, and issued an edict to build the Keju Commercial Plaza.

So far, since the end of last year's Keju Competition, Chen Xu's plan to build Keju Field has finally been officially launched.

With the issuance of the emperor's edict and the spread of the news, this large project with an investment of more than 100 million yuan suddenly made the whole Xianyang restless again, and countless businessmen came to the Academy of Sciences to inquire about the project, all wanting to get a piece of the pie.

According to the Keju Field plan and investment advertisement published in the Huaxia Metropolis Daily, this comprehensive commercial plaza will consume more than several times the Weihe Bridge's cement, sand, stone, steel, and various supporting materials such as bamboo and wood scaffolding and frames.

These materials alone are enough to make many of the engineering teams involved in the construction of Dongfang Road make a lot of money.

And the happiest are the businessmen who opened the cement factory.

As long as this project starts, a large amount of cement will be marketable again.

However, these things have little to do with Chen Xu, the funds are in place, the Keju field project is approved, Yang Kun once again became the director of Xianyang Keju Commercial Plaza Development Company, and began to recruit troops to prepare raw materials, Hu Kuan also convened the craftsmen of the Academy of Sciences to start forming an engineering team, and Zhang Cang also took a group of craftsmen to begin to measure and plan the specific construction plan of this commercial square.

In order to speed up the construction of this project, Chen Xu also proposed that concrete prefabricated panels and hollow cement bricks could be used, which were tested by the engineering team.

And with the introduction of the new business law, just a month has passed, Xianyang City suddenly began to emerge a large number of shops, because the grain cloth can no longer be settled as a coin, so the status of the grain cloth soon began to decline into a commodity for daily consumption, just the grain store and cloth shop in the whole Xianyang City there are hundreds, at the same time, there are a large number of garment shops, restaurants, pharmacies, sugar and wine pastries, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, Quyuan miscellaneous houses, etc. have also sprung up, and the supply of various bamboo, wood, pottery, tea, and porcelain has become more and more sufficient. Merchants from the south to the north transported goods and specialties from all over Daqin to Xianyang.

Therefore, this spring, Xianyang is more lively and prosperous than in previous years.

The traffic of caravans almost blocked the Wei River Bridge, and long trucks passed over the bridge like ants and diverted to both sides of the Wei River.

In addition to Xianyang, merchants from all over the country suddenly became active almost overnight, and they all began to swagger and trade from the previous state of trembling and dormancy, and all counties, counties, counties, and even towns were suddenly very lively, and a large number of civilians jumped on their burdens and carried wheelbarrows to push wheelbarrows to send the mountain freight of medicinal herbs dug in winter to the market for sale, and they no longer had to worry about being beaten, scolded, driven away or even confiscated by officials and soldiers, and these small transactions did not have to pay taxes.

In the bazaar, merchants and craftsmen also put a large number of bamboo, wood, pottery and even precious porcelain and red wine for sale.

As long as they operate legally and pay taxes legally, as long as they do not sell prohibited bows, arrows, knives and guns and shoddy goods, the officials will not be too harsh.

The spring of Shang Jia came at the same time in the spring of the 31st year of the First Emperor.

The pattern of Qin's law of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce was finally broken, and Daqin began to enter a period of vigorous development of commerce.

Grain production has increased for three consecutive years, business has begun to blow out, and the prosperity of Daqin has shown signs of prosperity.

The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

Although all this is driven by the word profit, the so-called no profit is not early.

Where there is profit, merchants will be everywhere.

Even in the most distant Bashu, Guizhou, and the northwestern border counties, merchants can be seen everywhere.

And it is precisely with these merchants that the products of Daqin, the southeast and northwest of Daqin can be continuously transported to different places, and logistics has become a huge market.

The Oriental Road has been fully passed, just like Chen Xu's planning and prospecting, this open road will completely block the obstruction of goods to and from the east and west, and the goods between the east and west are transported along this road like flowing water, and then rely on five huge logistics markets for storage and transshipment, driving the counties and towns along the way to prosper in an instant.

At the end of February, the emperor issued an edict in the court that he would once again parade to the southeast after the Shangsi Festival.

And the main route of this cruise is the Oriental Road.

Wang Ben, Li Si, Meng Yi, and Chen Xu all had to accompany the emperor on the parade, Feng Quji still stayed in Xianyang to preside over the government affairs of the court, and the prince helped Su to coordinate the governance.

And after this edict was issued, Li Si made a special trip to the palace, but he didn't know what to say to the emperor.

Of course, Li Si, as the emperor's most relied on Shangqing, entered the palace twice in three days to play against the emperor, and no one cared about and paid attention to this matter.

Before following the emperor on the parade, Chen Xu made a series of arrangements, first sent ten teenagers who were already familiar with the operation of firecrackers and grenades and hundreds of firecrackers and gunpowder grenades back to Qinghe Town, so that his father could start teaching the five hundred teenagers to train the shooting training of muskets at home.

Then for the safety of the Hou Mansion and the other courtyard, twenty teenagers were also left to patrol with firearms on their backs every day, but in these cases, hundreds of Houfu servants guarded hundreds of people, and in Xianyang, the safety was still enough to ensure safety, so Chen Xu also told these teenagers not to use firearms and grenades unless they had to do so.

The remaining twenty teenagers will follow him on a tour of the southeast to protect themselves.

Before leaving, the focus is still on the Keju Commercial Plaza, which has begun to excavate the foundation, and Chen Xu has to go to inspect almost every other day, and put forward some patterns and experiences of later generations of buildings according to different situations, so as to ensure that this project with an investment of hundreds of millions of yuan can be successfully completed.

Han Xin originally wanted to follow Chen Xu to play in the southeast, but was rejected by Chen Xu, after more than a year of study, Han Xin has now changed a lot, although he is still playful, but learning is deeply appreciated by An Yuliang, several times mentioned that Han Xin is the smartest and most intelligent student he has ever taught, and there will definitely be opportunities to be in and out of the future in the future, this praise also makes Han Xin very proud.

"It may take a few months for my brother to go, you have to take care of your two sisters-in-law and sister at home, and don't waste your studies, you have always wanted to be a general of Kuang Fu Sheji, I have a military book here, you take it to participate in the study, but remember not to pass it on!"

Chen Xu gave Han Xin the art of war of the Taigong left by Huangshi Gong.

"Taigong's Art of War?" Han Xin looked at the several ancient seals on the bamboo slips and was pleasantly surprised.

"Have you heard?" Chen Xu asked curiously.

"I heard Yingbu talk about it once, this book of soldiers is still obtained by my brother who went to Xiapi a few years ago, I heard that the origin is mysterious, but I didn't expect my brother to pass him on to me!" Han Xin nodded excitedly.

"Well, Yingbu has now gone to the camp in the Western Regions, he is strong in martial arts, and he will definitely have the merit of being a marquis in a few years, although you are young, but you are almost fifteen years old this year, and when I come back from the tour, I will arrange for you to also serve under General Meng, so you have to familiarize yourself with this book of soldiers, which will be of great help to you in the future, maybe you will be able to be crowned a marquis in the court in the future, and your achievements will not be lower than that of your brother!"

"I ...... How dare I compare with my brother, but I will definitely study this military book well, and I will not embarrass my brother in the future! Han Xin shook his head with a flushed face.

"Hehe, why be embarrassed, you and my brother are one in honor and disgrace, in the future, if you become famous, your mother will be happy, you go first, I will give a lesson to His Royal Highness Ziying later!"

"Yes, brother, brother retire!" Han Xin saluted and left excitedly with a book of war.

After sitting in the study and reading a book for a while, the doorman came to report, and Gongzi Fusu came to visit with his child, so Chen Xu sorted out his clothes and hair and went out to greet him. (https:)
