Chapter 596: People Tossing and Turning
The truth that scarcity is precious, in fact, there is no need for Sun Xiangfu to explain, the eldest grandson Wuji can understand that although Jiangling City is planned to be very large, it may not all be built with splendor, half of the place is used as a temporary track and field stadium, with the current southern economy, it is not enough to support it to become a prosperous city like Chang'an, because it does not have enough industrial support, and it is not the political center of the Tang Dynasty, unless Li Shimin is willing to let the industry in Guanzhong transfer to Jiangling, which is definitely impossible.
However, in the future, Jiangling's economy is also very promising, and Changsun Chong also said just now that it is surrounded by dozens of wealthy counties like Jiuyuan County, how can Jiangling not be prosperous.
However, where are those dozens of counties now?
None of them exist yet.
From the time Wu Shi Tong took charge of Jingzhou and began to build the fields, until now, three years have passed, before and after, hundreds of thousands of manpower have been mobilized, and it is only a dozen pieces of fields, which is equal to only one and a half Jiuyuan County, even if in the next three years, the manpower invested will increase by three or four times, at the beginning of the sports conference in Jiangling City, there are only six or seven counties and districts as large-scale as Jiuyuan County.
More than 500 fields, in history, but from the Song Dynasty to the Ming and Qing dynasties, it took more than 1,000 years to complete it intermittently, even if the Tang Dynasty invested more manpower, no matter how strong the policy support is, it will take at least sixty or seventy years to complete the uninterrupted development.
Therefore, this city, in fact, because Sun Xiangfu saw the long-term future, only planned to such a large place, and now it really needs to be built, he thinks, one-third is enough, at most, not more than half, a few square kilometers larger than Dingxiang City, reserve land, must be set aside, maybe because of the development of the technical level of this area after a few years, the need to use in industry, and other aspects of the land will increase.
"Masaaki, let's talk about your moves!" The eldest grandson, Wuji, continued to go straight to the point.
"Actually, today, I thought that the princes of the court should be able to easily think of a solution to the problem, but I didn't expect ······"
"You mean, it's very simple?" The eldest grandson Wuji was a little stunned.
"Of course, it's very simple." Sun Xiangfu spread his hands and said.
"The relationship between the forces of all parties is complicated, and even the harem is fighting over the amount of this loan, who to lend it to, who not to lend it to, and how to divide the urgency, how to balance all parties, Your Majesty and I are racking our brains, you say it's very simple?" The eldest grandson Wuji looked at Sun Xiangfu with an incredulous gaze.
Sun Xiangfu pursed his lips and said, "Why are you thinking about it so much?" Inherit it all! ”
"All, all, how is this possible? Didn't you just say that Qianzhuang only has a total of more than 300 million yuan in deposits, and their loan amount is more than 600 million yuan, this, how to borrow? The eldest grandson Wuji spread his hands and said.
Sun Xiangfu still looked calm and said, "Why can't you borrow it?" Let me ask you, is there a penny in the money village that belongs to the imperial court? ”
"Nope."
When the eldest grandson Wuji answered this question casually, he didn't expect it to be so deep, but after answering, his whole body suddenly froze.
That's right! Although the court is now in charge of the bank, the money in the money has never been the court's, not that the court has lent the money, the money is no longer in the bank, these people have lent the money out, they want to invest in the industry, then, the people who sell materials to them, make money, will deposit the money in the bank, the money is just in their hands.
Seeing the expression of the eldest grandson Wuji's sudden realization, Sun Xiangfu said, "You should understand!" In fact, even if we lend them 600 million yuan at once, they won't be able to spend it! Because, the average annual output of all the building materials industry in Datang is not up to 600 million yuan, and the money village only needs to give them an order according to the urgency of their projects, and formulate a simple lending rule according to the shipments of various building materials factories. And the projects that really need to start in time, their start-up capital is far greater than the wages of the workers, which is enough to ensure the safety of the project and the assets of the bank. ”
In the future, there is a start-up capital of 100 million, developers dare to do a billion projects, or even billions of projects, as long as the bank can be sure that the project will not generate bad debts for themselves, now, these families are taking three or four percent, or even nearly half of the funds as start-up capital, what dare not do! Moreover, these projects are all guarantee projects that the imperial court must do, to put it bluntly, even if these families do not come to invest in them, the imperial court itself has to pay for the projects, so what are you afraid of?
When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he patted his thigh and said, "Wonderful, this method is really wonderful, more than 100 million guan, a few circles in the market, the money is still in Qianzhuang, but they all owe more than 100 million guan." ”
The meaning of money has always been circulation, since everyone needs money, then, just let him flow faster, this truth, the ancients are difficult to understand, understand and may not think of applying it to practice, even if Datang only has a relatively fragile financial system, its energy can not be ignored.
"That being said, however, the imperial court must have some control over the industry, and the industrial layout is unreasonable, just like the imbalance in the number of Shinong businessmen and businessmen, there will be big problems, and this needs to be analyzed and studied by the Ministry of Commerce."
"In this way, the old man should write to His Majesty as soon as possible, so as not to cause any trouble later."
The eldest grandson Wuji obviously didn't want to be a monk after fasting, but poor Sun Xiangfu contributed his wisdom and had to pay for his own pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
The time for the banquet to end was not early, and after talking for a long time, Sun Xiangfu also went to bed, and after agreeing with the eldest grandson Wuji to continue chatting tomorrow, Sun Xiangfu went back to the room to rest, as for the rest of the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Chunfeng, Zhen Qian, naturally Uncle De arranged it for them.
"Xiu'er, you haven't slept yet!"
"I'm waiting for my husband!"
"What's there to wait for, isn't it ······?" Sun Xiangfu saw Yu Xiu'er, who was wearing a cotton jacket and half-lying on the bed reading a book, and suddenly showed a squinting look.
Yu Xiu'er instantly understood what he meant, and glanced at him shyly and said, "Husband, don't be weird, Doctor Zhen has already checked the pulse of the concubine before, and the concubine is pregnant again." ”
"Eh, is it true? That's great, how many days are there. ”
"It's been almost two months!"
"Tut-tut, it seems that this is still a treasure of feng shui!"
"How?"
"Pregnant! Think about it, Hongmei and Chun Tao followed me here, and they got pregnant as soon as they came, more than two months ago, didn't you happen to follow me here, and it didn't take long for them to get pregnant with ······."
Sun Xiangfu's words, if put in modern terms, can only be heard as a joke, but in this era, Yu Xiuer immediately believed it, and then, Sun Xiangfu was sad, because Yu Xiuer wanted to write a letter to call Li Xiangdie and Yao Hongsleeve, let me call over, the reason is very sufficient, that is, design, selection, and rehearsal of the program of the sports conference held three years later, in fact, it is to let Sun Xiangfu take them in this feng shui treasure land of pregnancy, and contribute to the development of the Sun family.
"Xiu'er, this way, it's not appropriate! As a husband, I am only a commoner now, and I am not qualified to take these high-ranking officials as concubines. ”
"Husband, you are a commoner, but I am still Mrs. Anguo as a concubine, and the court is from the Taile Order of Sanpin! So! This family, now I have the final say, you, it's not okay to oppose it, now come here from Chang'an, you can arrive in seven or eight days, and when the time comes, the husband will have someone to serve at night, isn't it······"
"This won't work, we have to discuss ······"
"As the head of the house, I have the right to decide this matter, who is so stipulated in the new law of our Datang, so this matter is not negotiable."
Sun Xiangfu found out that what Yu Xiuer had just seen was actually the code of the Tang Dynasty.
"This law is unreasonable, I will write to Old Man Wei to change it when I go back."
"It's late, and when the next code revision is promulgated, it must be ······ three years later"
Originally, it was written directly in the general statute of the code, because the times are changing too fast, the law may also need to be amended and updated, but because it takes time to draft and promulgate, it will only be updated every three years, that is, even if there may be unreasonable places, after the promulgation of the code, you can raise objections, but the actual revision and implementation must wait for the next promulgation of the code, unified implementation.
There is no way, this is in ancient times, even if the number of money deposited in the national money bank is counted, it will take more than half a year, not to mention the revision and promulgation of legal rationality, and it can be updated in three years, which is already considered fast.
It feels very strange to be forced to take a concubine by his wife, and this time Yu Xiu'er is completely in a posture of not entering the oil and salt, he told Yu Xiu'er anything about what love can be together, and it is useless, because Yu Xiu'er told him that taking a concubine is Nase, and if Sun Xiangfu really has a woman who loves to die and live outside, Yu Xiu'er will not allow her to enter the door!
In the end, Sun Xiangfu, who was forced to compromise, tossed and turned in bed, and didn't sleep well all night, and he didn't know if he was excited because he was about to take two beauties into the room, or because he was worried about marrying two women who didn't love him.
There are many people who can't sleep well every night, such as Songtsen Gampo, who also tosses and turns and can't sleep on the distant plateau, chooses a different way to spend the night from him, after getting up from the bed, he holds a book on the table again, and begins to read word by word.
The Tawang Division, which he had sent to Dingxiang to participate in the sports conference, had returned, and these books were the most valuable things that Songtsen Gampo had brought back from Dingxiang.
As representatives of neighboring countries like Tubo, Tawang and they didn't even have the opportunity to say a word to Li Shimin in person, so Lu Dongzan and a group of Tubo generals had to continue to stay in Chang'an to eat in prison.
Moreover, when Dawang and these people went to Datang, the majestic momentum was completely gone, and when they and Songtsen Gampo explained what they saw and heard in Datang, their eyes would unconsciously show an expression of awe.
Through their descriptions, as well as their expressions, Songtsen Gampo, who had never stepped out of the plateau, really knew how powerful this newly rising dynasty in the Central Plains was.
In a big competition with people all over the world, Datang actually won more than eighty percent of the medals, and even most of the gold medals, that is, the champions, were won by the Tang people, how incredible is this? The more than 800 warriors of his Tubo faction in the past are considered the strongest elite of Tubo, and they will actually win nothing in the competition, even the warriors selected by the Pyu Kingdom with a population of up to 3 million are the same, which makes him very depressed, and he now feels that Lu Dongzan's army was defeated under Chang'an City, perhaps not accidentally.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Tawang omitted that they had not yet entered Dingxiang City, and the people of the Bi Kingdom were beaten by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and were injured, and the wounded whose combat effectiveness had decreased by half, it was strange that they could make gains in the fiercely competitive sports field.
And Songtsen Gampo, who already had a certain cultural attainment, was immediately impressed by the truth mentioned above when he carefully read the four books and five classics brought back by Tawang, this is simply the truth of the world, no wonder the Tang Dynasty is so powerful, it turns out that they have mastered the truth of the world.
You must know that the Tubo Dynasty he established was a slave country, and it was a grade different from the feudal monarchy! When you see a more advanced management system, you will of course feel superior.
Therefore, Songtsen Gampo is quickly learning the truth of these books, and is ready to spread them in Tibet, emulating the Tang Dynasty and making himself stronger.
Even the Han people with thousands of years of cultural heritage can't find much fault with Confucianism, of course, it is the truth of the world, Songtsen Gampo thought that if he understood the truth of the world, he would become stronger, and there were many rulers of countries whose civilization was not higher than them, and he was the same, so Confucian culture, after these people who participated in the Dingxiang Movement returned to their home countries, quietly opened the way of spreading outside the territory.
