The content of the early dynasty has something to do with Sun Xiangfu, but it doesn't have much to do with it.

First of all, Li Shimin announced that a few days after tomorrow until the Spring Festival, the early dynasty was canceled, and he was going to visit some poor villages around Chang'an.

Then, the eldest grandson Wuji reported to Li Shimin on the matter of the free cabinet shop, and the progress was very gratifying, at most in the spring of next year, the "money house" run by the imperial court will start to open.

After that, Wei Zheng put forward suggestions to Li Shimin on the reform of the Imperial Historical Observatory, and finally, Li Shimin decided to transfer personnel from the three departments of the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Imperial Historical Observatory to form a new department of the Procuratorate.

This department does not have the same power as the Jinyi Wei of the Ming Dynasty in later generations, they are not in charge of the prison, nor are they responsible for the trial, but only for various cases, to provide investigation evidence, all the court officials, need to cooperate with their investigation and inquiry, there are bad situations, against the investigation, they report to the imperial history platform, it will only affect the official's reputation, how to deal with it, or depends on the meaning of the emperor and the yamen in charge of the prison, it is considered that the emperor tentatively sued the people, opened a small opening.

As for the detailed rules of the citizenship system proposed by Xiao Yu, it will take a long discussion before it can be finalized.

These things they discussed were all put forward by Sun Xiangfu at the beginning, but they were only proposed, Sun Xiangfu was not a political master in later generations, and he only knew one of these things, and he didn't know the other, and pointed out a direction for them, how to conform to the actual situation at the moment, how to set it, it depends on the decision of Li Shimin and the courtiers.

Therefore, this morning, except for Li Shimin's hand-picked escort visit, he came out and sang a promise, but he did not say a word, which made some ministers very disappointed.

It was also almost noon before the dynasty dispersed, the people who should stay would naturally stay, and the people who should leave would not stay in the imperial city to blow the cold wind, and after a while, Sun Xiangfu and others gathered in Li Shimin's imperial study.

They are all old acquaintances, except for Wei Chigong who took advantage of Cheng Biting Jin's absence and bullied his second son Cheng Chuliang a few words, the others looked very harmonious on their faces, and it was not good to be discordant today! Because it's about interests.

Li Shimin has never been tired of eating mutton hot pot, if Sun Xiangfu can be the master of the inner palace, he must replace it with fish head hot pot, and wait for Li Shimin to tour the north! When the time comes, give him mutton every day, and don't get tired of eating him.

Everyone ate and drank for a long time, and Sun Xiangfu began to explain to everyone about this round of investment plans.

"First of all, Your Majesty will take out the entire land of Weinan County and invest in it, accounting for 51% of the original shares, we have no opinion on this!"

"Fifty-one percent, that's one out of five! Why this number? Can't it be directly sixty percent? Li Shimin was the first to question, the eldest grandson Wuji, Qin Qiong and others also made a natural look and nodded.

When Sun Xiangfu heard this, he said a little helplessly, "Your Majesty, fifty-one percent is already a lot, it just symbolizes that you are the largest shareholder, and you have the absolute right to speak on any project in Weinan, if it is about actual value, do you think the land in Weinan County is very valuable?" ”

Li Shimin was not happy to say that the land of a county was not valuable, and retorted again, "The entire county of Weinan has more than one million acres of land, why is it not valuable?" ”

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu nodded and said, "I'll treat it as more than one million acres of mature land!" The market price is only two or three million guan, and this round of investment, Guangchen's family, is more than one million, plus the money of several other companies, do you think these lands are really worth more than the money we invested? ”

Li Shimin was dumbfounded, and said that the harmonious picture was shattered from the beginning of talking about the project, when each family reported the number of their investments in this round of projects, Li Shimin was bitter, it was so annoying, the subordinate ministers were actually richer than him, the emperor, and moreover, it was not one or two, which made him embarrassed!

"So, now, I will make the final statistics, the Yi family contributed 300,000 guan, the Lu family contributed 300,000 guan, the Pei Juma family contributed 300,000 guan, the E public family contributed 500,000 guan, the Lu public family contributed 300,000 guan, the Dugu general's family contributed 500,000 guan, the Zhao public family contributed 500,000 guan, and my family and the happy village collectively contributed 1.5 million guan, a total of 4.2 million guan. Of these, for every 100,000 yuan, it accounts for one percent of the shares, and as for the remaining seven percent, I mean, put it on the market, Your Majesty, you know. ”

Sun Xiangfu only needed to give Li Shimin a bad look, and he knew that the value of the seven percent shares was definitely more than 700,000 yuan, and if it was auctioned like Shanyang's land, it would not be a problem to pit five surnames and seven families to get out several times the money.

"Zhengming, this is all of our belongings, all used to build a city? What a big city! When Eldest Sun Wuji heard the total figure of four million and two hundred thousand, the corners of his mouth twitched a little.

"Changsun Shangshu, the cost of building a city in Guanzhong is incomparable with that in Shanyang, there is free coal to burn bricks and cement, but here, everything has to be bought, and it may be bought at a high price, and the labor cost is not small, if hundreds of thousands of people are recruited to build, the monthly wages are hundreds of thousands of guan, so even if you build a county-level city, the cost of infrastructure construction may reach two million.

But we are not only to build a city for people to live in Weinan, we have to build all the workshops of related industries, and we also have to set aside the initial start-up capital of these industries, not to mention, Weinan is close to the Yellow River, just to build a large ship berthing dock, configure the merchant ships that can radiate the national freight volume, all need to start with a million yuan, and want to quickly get all these projects, not to mention this money, plus two million yuan, are only a little. ”

After Sun Xiangfu finished speaking, Hou Junji answered, "Why do you need such a big expense for wages?" As long as His Majesty decrees that the people will be requisitioned and distributed among the people, won't they be able to save millions of yuan? ”

Hearing this, everyone also nodded one after another, in ancient times, what kind of big projects did the imperial court have, and it was necessary to levy and issue conscription, not to mention the wages, and the people even had to bring their own food.

But Sun Xiangfu shook his head and said, "Your Majesty can't be Yang Guang." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent again, Li Shimin nodded and said thoughtfully, "It is clear that this statement is reasonable, the reason why our road in Guanzhong can be built so smoothly is because the imperial court gives wages and grain and rice." For the construction of Weinan, we can only use labor to recruit workers in the private sector, and we cannot abuse the people's power. ”

When Hou Junji saw Li Shimin say this, he immediately turned his mouth again, "It's the minister's thoughtfulness, but to build a city, the craftsmen required, wood and ironware and other materials are huge, and if all the money is used to procure, it will inevitably raise the price of goods in the market. ”

At this point, Hou Junji got to the point, Sun Xiangfu nodded in agreement, "Raising is naturally to be raised, but you still have to have some means, don't hide it from Your Majesty, last night, I already asked Yuan Daochang to spread the news." ”

"Spread the word? What's the strategy? ”

Following the question raised by Li Shimin, everyone looked at Sun Xiangfu.

"What is needed to build the city, Lu Gong knows, and the family with a huge industry also knows, last night, the minister led Yuan Daochang to his own treasury to take a look, please ask him to spread the news that my family has a large amount of money and is ready to invest in Weinan to build a city, think about it, there will be rumors on the market today, Your Majesty thinks, what will happen to those families who know the news?"

Li Shimin basically didn't have to think about it, so he replied, "I will hoard Juqi and raise the price of the materials needed to build the city to seek profits." ”

Sun Xiangfu nodded and smiled, "That's right, this is a trick they are used to making profits, but we can just pit them, Your Majesty should not have forgotten the matter of buying grain in Hongzhou!" ”

Sun Xiangfu mentioned this stubble, and immediately awakened everyone's memory, back then, Wang Hao instigated the Lingnan tribe to rebel, in Hongzhou, Quanzhou and other Lingnan surrounding areas hoarding a large number of grain, but because Sun Xiangfu saw through the plan, in the end, let Zhang Gongjin and others use grain to impact the market in their grain hoarding area, the price was pressed to an ultra-low level, and finally, the imperial court bought millions of stone grain at a low price.

"Are you saying that let them receive the news in advance and hoard a lot of building materials and materials, but we make a look like we don't buy their things and force them to sell them at a lower price?" The eldest grandson Wuji was the first to react and said.

Sun Xiangfu nodded and said, "That's the reason, so, in the next period of time, we have to take the money as soon as possible and go to the surrounding market to buy some building materials, and for the scale of Weinan New Industrial City, we are going to blow to the sea, it is best to let them think that we are going to build the entire Weinan County boundary into a super city, so that they will transport excessive building materials and materials, no, just let us bargain." ”

The family has a think tank, and the industry is huge and complete. With such a big project, it is impossible for them not to want a piece of the pie, especially those who may not be able to be shareholders of Xincheng, it is inevitable to put their minds on building materials, Sun Xiangfu is to catch their mentality, pit them, he has even thought of follow-up means.

For example, procurement, all use bidding, let them quote by themselves, and, round by round, a little bit, a class of bidding, lead them into vicious competition, when everyone has too many hoarding things in their hands, they will want to make a move, then, it is conceivable that Sun Xiangfu finally sold the price of those building materials.

Of course, how many benefits are secondary to the pit, the main thing is that with their help to raise building materials, the construction speed of the new city will definitely be accelerated, and it will be built a year earlier, but it will start to make a profit a year earlier, and the interest gap in the middle is huge.

Finally, Sun Xiangfu explained about the shareholders of Weinan New City's industry has what sovereignty, although the city is built by several shareholders, but it still belongs to the imperial court, taxes, civil affairs, or under the management of the imperial court, shareholders' income, mainly from real estate, and follow-up investment projects, from the beginning of construction, to the return of profits, it may take three to five years, or even longer, which requires everyone to prepare in advance.
