"The south of the clouds, the direction of my heart.

The peacock flies away, and the memories are long.

The Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, shining with silver light.

Beautiful Lijiang, people ······ on the road"

Peony and Hibiscus have bright voices and dance beautifully, however, their performance makes Sheron full of shame.

Now Yunnan, there is no such beautiful song at all, there are deep mountains and old forests everywhere, the so-called Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, there is no decent road for people to walk over.

The so-called beautiful Lijiang, well! Shelong doesn't think it's better than the scenery on both sides of the Weishui River in Chang'an, at least the trees on both sides of the Weishui are planned, there are some residential buildings to see, and the waterways are also very suitable for boats. The old town of Lijiang, which was only built at the end of the Song Dynasty, is still a barren area, inhabited by a few small tribes living in trees or thatched huts.

"Young Master Sun, is it really our Yunnan that is sung in this song?" After singing and dancing, Shelong on the banquet asked unsatisfied.

He just arranged for the young singing and dancing artists of his clan to present songs and dances for Sun Xiangfu at the reception banquet, however, compared with the singing and dancing quality of Sun Xiangfu's two orchid concubines, they are weak.

You must know that this song and dance, but what he intends to present to all the guests at the opening ceremony of the Gangneung City Sports Conference, is already the best song and dance that the Annan Army Art Troupe can arrange to represent the local area.

"As long as you work hard, Yunnan can become so good, anyway, there are still two or three months before you set off, so just rearrange and learn the song and dance they sang and danced just now! While dedicating it to all the guests, it also allows the world to see the ambition of your Yunnan people. Isn't there still more than six years left after that, and if you pay close attention to the infrastructure, you may not be able to realize the beautiful scene in the song. ”

In fact, during the sports conference in Dingxiang, Shelong learned that Yunnan Dali City would hold a sports conference in Guangzhou City in Lingnan, and immediately started construction when he came back.

It's a pity that the country's high-quality craftsmen and building materials have been concentrated in Jiangling City by the eldest grandson Wuji, and Dali City, which has only received a small amount of technical support, although there are many laborers who can use it, but in the past two or three years, it has only completed the most basic aspects of the city wall and some roads in the city, drainage ditches, etc., and even the cement road leading to Shuzhong has only been repaired to half.

Under the premise of not vigorously introducing various industrial industries in Weinan, they have to get these raw materials that require certain industrial technology to produce, but they are very laborious and tired, and they can't transport much.

"We've worked very hard, except for farming and mining, I usually use the rest of the manpower on construction, but as you can see, it's been almost three years, and I haven't even built a city." Sheron said with some frustration.

In this period of Yunnan, the traffic road is very inconvenient, not as Jiangling City as extending in all directions, what materials and materials do you want, there are thousands of water ships immediately, all over the country keep to transport it, the reason why it can be built quickly in three years, in addition to investing more than one million professional construction workers, in winter, there are at least nearly a million northern migrant workers working there, and the eldest grandson Wuji also used all the human resources that can be used, in order to have today's scale.

Shelong built it by his own people, so it can't be compared with the progress of Gangneung City. The gap is more than ten times, that is to say that it is small.

Sun Xiangfu looked at his depressed appearance and smiled, "You have indeed worked hard, but the method is not used correctly, seeing the prosperity of Dingxiang City, you want to come back and build a city like Dingxiang City, do you think, a city like Dingxiang is suitable for you in Yunnan?" And, do you know why Dingxiang City is prosperous? ”

Shelong's intelligence is not very high, otherwise, he would not have been played by Wang Hao in the first place, but he is more realistic, and he will not want to hide his shortcomings and save his face because he is not smart, he will only humbly ask for advice, so he suddenly stood up from behind his desk, bowed down and gave Sun Xiangfu a big salute, "Please teach me Young Master Sun." ”

"General Shelong doesn't need to be like this, everyone is just for the Tang Dynasty."

Sun Xiangfu got up and straightened Shelong's body, pressed it to the seat, and said, "You have to remember one thing, if you want to get rich, build the road first, no matter how beautiful you build the city, there is no fast and convenient road to here, others will not be willing to come to you, if everyone does not come, then your city will not be prosperous."

Moreover, we Han people have an old saying, called sharpening the knife is not wrong to chop wood, you repair the road, it is equivalent to sharpening the knife, so that those construction workers and all kinds of building materials produced in other places can be quickly transported in, in this way, the construction of your entire city will be much faster.

In addition, professional things should be done by professional people, and if you are not good at building city buildings, let the professional Han construction team do it, and you will develop the surrounding area, make various preparations for them, and provide a more comfortable and convenient working environment.

Again, you have to adapt measures to local conditions, give full play to your strengths, you Yunnan people, are used to living in the mountains and forests, living in wooden buildings, why do you need to learn from the north to build those reinforced concrete buildings, you are full of big wood, with these woods, to build pavilions and pavilions, not only more beautiful, but also to save your construction costs, so that your people live when they are more accustomed to. ”

In the era of no air conditioning and exhaust system, once the house is built too big, the ventilation and lighting are not good, and there will be a wet situation in the house, unless they can be like Feng An, the windows of the house are equipped with glass sashes with better lighting and ventilation.

Otherwise, pavilions and attics made of large dry wood are more suitable for them to live here, and it is also good for their health to live in drier houses for a long time.

In fact, the kind of new-style walled house building designed by Sun Xiangfu is also very suitable in Yunnan, and later, when developing the planting base, Sun Xiangfu will let the agricultural students who were previously stationed here build some according to that style, and give the locals an example, and when the time comes, let them imitate the construction.

"I'm stupid, you better tell me what to do!" Sheron admitted more directly that he still couldn't fully understand what Sun Xiangfu meant.

If he had that understanding, he wouldn't have built a road and built a city in three years, hearing this, Sun Xiangfu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "What you have to do now is to stop the construction of the city, first find a suitable place to build a wharf along the Jinsha River in Binchuan County, build a large wharf that can dock more ships, and then build a wide cement road from Dali City to this wharf." In this way, whether it is people from Shuzhong or other places, or building materials, or the special products you want to sell here, they can quickly enter and exit, and the transportation cost and time cost can be reduced exponentially. ”

Sun Xiangfu just said this, and Shelong suddenly realized, what were they doing to transport things to Shu before? With a wheelbarrow, go through the mountains and mountains, and even have to cross the cableway, but it is more than a thousand miles away, but it always has to walk more than half a month, and Sun Xiangfu, who came over in later generations, knows that in fact, the water system of Yunnan is very developed, there are many big rivers passing through the territory, the so-called big wood out of the south, this wood, in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, can rely on the thrust of the river, put the discharge and transport to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River for sale.

The place with the largest drop in the Jinsha River is in the upstream section of Shigu Town, Lijiang, to the downstream section of Binchuan County, Dali, the water flow has been very gentle, very suitable for boating, as long as the waterway is slightly combed, the ships that can go up the river to Shuzhong can basically get here, and as long as the problem of shipping is solved, then, the whole place is revitalized.

"What else?" No matter how stupid Shelong is, he also knows that Sun Xiangfu's suggestions are all golden words, which can be of great help to the development of Yunnan, and he suddenly said a little impatiently.

"There is also the need to continue to build cement roads that can connect the official roads in Shuzhong, and not one-way repairs, so that Shuzhong also begins to move, repair to your side, they accept all kinds of tools, building materials, etc., which is more convenient than you, and it is definitely easier than you to repair." Sun Xiangfu replied.

"That's it?" Good way, Shelong naturally wanted to listen more, and seeing that Sun Xiangfu stopped talking, he said with a look of disappointment.

Sun Xiangfu smiled and said, "With the current productivity of your side, it is already good to be able to do these two things at present, in fact, what you need to do more is to help the people under your rule, develop the fields, learn farming, and expand the output, no matter how convenient this road is, if there is not enough sustainable output, it is also in vain, relying on natural resources, you can only survive the temporary difficulties, when it is exhausted, who will be willing to provide you with food in vain?"

In the future! As your population grows, your natural resources will be depleted faster and faster, and the problem will become more and more urgent.

Moreover, your goal should not just be to let everyone have food and clothing, and then it's over, it should be set higher, at least let all people be as rich as the people in Guanzhong and Shannan Province, which is the right reason. ”

There are a lot of natural resources in Yunnan, but these natural resources need time to grow, and its growth rate is much slower than the rate of human reproduction and consumption. Well, one day they will come to an end.

Moreover, relying on these things only made them barely survive, which was better than the original life of hunting.

Expanding agricultural production is the basis for them to survive and become rich, and with self-sufficient agricultural production and the addition of natural resources, it is not difficult for them to achieve prosperity.

"However, if we don't step up the construction of the city, and by the time the sports conference is held, the city has not yet been built, how can I explain to Your Majesty?" Although Sheron knew that what Sun Xiangfu said was right, the sports conference was a political task he wanted to complete, and he did not dare to slack off on this.

"Hehe, you can rest assured of this! The construction team of the imperial court built a big city like Jiangling in three years, can't you still build Dali City, which is not half the size of Jiangling City, in six years? That's what I just said, leaving professional things to professional people. Sun Xiangfu explained to him with a smile.

"Six years? Didn't they go to build the city of Guangzhou first? Sheron said with some surprise when he heard this.

Sun Xiangfu replied, "Guangzhou City Feng Gong has already been built, only need to build a small number of competition venues, divided into a small group of people, at most half a year to a year, can be completed, in the second half of the year, the imperial court's million construction engineering team, will come to your Yunnan one after another, so the construction of a wharf in Linjiang, and the construction of a cement road from Dali City to this wharf, is very important and urgent." ”

"I said that recently, why are there suddenly so many Han businessmen on our side, asking about the land in the city!" Shelong said with a look of sudden realization.

Sun Xiangfu smiled and said, "I estimate that they just ask a lot, but the actual willingness to invest is not strong, and they don't dare to go big." ”

"Ahh How do you know? They all asked if they could give them the land for nothing, even if they paid money, they were only willing to pay a small amount of money to buy some shops, but none of them were like Dingxiang City and Jiangling City, who were willing to invest money to build a big hotel, I heard the peasant students you sent over said that Jiangling City just sold the land, and all the cost of building the city was earned, and they asked me not to sell the land in the city easily. Sheron said with some surprise, Sun Xiangfu guessed all the thoughts of those merchants.

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu smiled again, "Merchants need to calculate the rate of return when they invest, Jiangling City, because it is located in the heart of the Tang Dynasty, has developed water and land transportation, and after the centralized construction of the fields, the population is very dense, and there are more businessmen coming and going from the north to the south, and the total economic volume may not lose to Guanzhong in the future."

Therefore, they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy the land over there, as long as the industry is built, it is a matter of earning more and earning less, and they will never lose money.

However, you Yunnan here, located in a remote and reckless wilderness, most of the people, most of them have barely solved the problem of food and clothing, the economic strength is very backward, and the development potential is also very average, they open some shops here with you, sell some small things to you, or buy your output, maybe they can make a little profit, but if you open a big hotel, who will live after it is built? On your side, there are no customers who live in the big hotel! ”
