The Weizhou Cattle and Horse Conference, a trade fair that suddenly appeared, became the focus of the entire northwest under the propaganda of the government, the chamber of commerce, and the people at the bottom.

At least more than half a month ago, as a small state with a very ordinary Qinfeng Road, the floating population began to appear, and more and more.

The influence of this cattle and horse conference has completely penetrated into all corners of the entire north, except for those who are too low, everyone else knows.

Especially those who entrusted the chamber of commerce or money to buy cattle and horses, they were far away at home, but they were worried in their hearts, they didn't know what they brought, but what they hoped more was hope, it was the reduction of these people, so that the number of first, second and third class households that should have occupied the largest number was greatly reduced, if they gathered in Weizhou, it would be a real disaster.

In itself, in northern China, closer to the northwest, there may be at least 100,000 of these waiting households, even if each person brings one or two people, there will be 300,000 people, which is a huge number that Weizhou simply cannot bear.

However, even if these people are removed, the pressure on Weizhou has begun to amplify, especially as the opening day of the Cattle and Horse Conference is getting closer and closer, and the flow of people has begun to increase, which is far more than Weizhou imagined.

Also, in feudal society, except for some rural markets, or in some central cities, fixed markets, even if there are some merchants gathered, they will not come all at once.

Even in the days when merchants gathered, there was an increase of one or two thousand, which was already a very huge city, and this could just accommodate the fact that there were really thirty or fifty thousand more people in cities like Daimyofu and Henan Mansion, which was not inconspicuous, not to mention the terrible Bianliang, a huge city with a population of one million, even if it was more than ten or two hundred thousand, there was no problem.

Large-scale trade fairs, can concentrate too many at once, nearly 1,000 chambers of commerce, according to a chamber of commerce, send a team of about 20 people, that is, 20,000 people, this is only a part, there are also money villages, come to see the lively, and there are some scattered people.

This trading conference is said to be in the form of an auction, a group of centralized transactions, but in order to take care of the surroundings, there will still be scattered transactions.

Those who are far away from Weizhou will not come, those who are closer, or other interests, or come back, these people are conservatively estimated to be one or two hundred thousand, plus ten miles and eight towns to see the excitement, in fact, the number of people who come is at least more than 50,000.

50,000 people, for the Daimyofu, Henan Mansion is nothing, but for the northwest border of Weizhou, it is terrible, the entire Weizhou can only be called an ordinary place, under the jurisdiction of five counties, most of which are below the average.

In other words, most of the counties have a population of only about 1,000 households, that is, the total population, which will not exceed 30,000 people, and 50,000 people have poured in at once, which is almost more than their total population

Weizhou was a little caught off guard, but fortunately, these chambers of commerce have rich experience, and they also know that Weizhou's reception capacity is limited, and they are more of their own supplies, at most, purchasing some temporary food and water, and the rest, self-sufficient.

However, tents and temporary buildings, how can there be a good home, let alone in the winter in the northwest, this era, minus ten degrees, in the wild is considered normal, in this case, staying in the wild, it is definitely not able to be called comfortable, or even worse.

For the residents of Weizhou, this is a good thing, the entire Weizhou inns are already overcrowded, these villagers, I don't know who thought of it first, or those businessmen want to rent, suddenly rented residences, began to appear.

If you can arrive early, or if you want to rent, which one is not wealthy, even if it is only 100 wen a day, you can give it.

This is a very large number for the residents, you know, a man in the prime of life, on the dock, with a day's strength, non-stop work, that is, about 100 Wen, that is on the busy and rich canal, for the northwest border, struggling with the poverty line, it is like pie in the sky.

Houses are not very valuable, especially houses made of stone and earth, in the northwest, there is not much else, that is, there is a lot of vacant land, as long as there is enough manpower, you can build a house with enough period.

Of course, the benefit is only the residents in Weizhou, and there are those closer to Weizhou City, and the city is even more terrible, not only the inn or something has risen in price again and again, and an ordinary room has risen to 300 Wen a day, even if it is a rented house in the city, it is as high as 200 Wen a day, and the cheapest is these on the outskirts of the city, even if there is a shortage of housing, three or four houses are squeezed out.

What's better than making money, it's a big deal to squeeze, and the Weizhou Conference will not last forever, at most it will take a month, according to 100 Wen a day, between the Weizhou Conference, you can earn several times, or even more than 10, then, isn't it equivalent to picking up a cow for nothing.

Cattle are as important as the northwest, especially in Weizhou, which is close to the Central Plains, they already have the experience of reclamation, and these low-level residents may not have been able to obtain these cattle before, but now they can buy a cow just for the cost of renting a house, even if it doesn't work, the two can be combined, which can be regarded as a side increase in sales.

The people at the bottom, they can't figure out the difference between group buying and scattered, they are more concerned about whether they can get these cattle.

These expenses, for the high-level chamber of commerce who rub the atmosphere, the tent is carried, but in Weizhou in winter, what is more comfortable than indoors, a total of half a month less, even if it is 100, or even 200 a day, it is just two times, for those nobles, the choice has become inevitable.

Business and trade activities, strengthening the development of a certain city, this is a matter that later generations began to judge, but under such an unexpected move by Han Qi, the first appeared, the state capital of Weizhou, did not realize this, because most of the rentals do not have to pay taxes to the government, and the government can't control these short-term rentals, as long as you are willing.

However, the collateral impact is still produced, on the whole street, all kinds of commercial activities are very developed, some of the original unsalable things, especially in Weizhou, local specialties, as long as they are related to eating, began to sell on a large scale, and it is very prosperous.

For example, in Weizhou, at least about 6,000 rooms have been rented, and according to a 2 guan, these tenants have brought at least 12,000 yuan of wealth to Weizhou.

These wealth, and finally was exchanged for 1,000 head of cattle, began to continue to create value for Weizhou, simply in the next few years, Weizhou wasteland reclamation area, over the same period increased by 30%, it can be seen that more land, more natural output.

In the same way, these people can't all eat dry food, with rent, they will naturally have food, they can carry a large number of tents, they can't always bring oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and the like, all of them, it is natural to eat, to consume, in the hands of these big moneymakers, a little bit of omission, can enhance the value of Weizhou.

The final data, there is no exact record, about the industrial output and the national output, in this era, there is no complete calculation method, even after the birth of the post, there is no way to restore this achievement.

However, as the first trade fair in the sense of the Northern Song Dynasty, some people later specialized in research, according to the number of people and trading volume, and some side things speculated that a large number of people arrived in Weizhou, and the direct value created for Weizhou was about 120,000, which was calculated based on the total number of things and cattle and horses purchased at some profits, and the indirect value plus the commission of the final Weizhou conference turnover, exceeded one million.

One million, for the entire political arena of the Northern Song Dynasty, this is not a big number, the financial revenue of the Northern Song Dynasty has already exceeded 20 million, but for a state of Qinfeng Road, this is already a very terrible number, coupled with the geographical advantages of Weizhou.

They successfully seized the opportunity of the development of the northwest, especially after the railway, Weizhou is also an important node connected to Lingzhou, their own development speed, on the original basis, and plugged in the wings.

Three days before the opening of the Weizhou Conference, a huge team entered Weizhou, this team came from the north, boundless, this is a livestock team from Lingzhou.

As early as more than half a month ago, 10,000 horses and 50,000 cattle had already entered Weizhou, they set off in advance, and the scale at that time was not so large, a total of only 60,000 livestock, in Weizhou, without expansion, it can already be accommodated.

With the help of herdsmen, he lived a stable life in Weizhou, but later, as more and more chambers of commerce began to enter the decision, after participating in this huge Weizhou conference, Han Qi agreed to a figure of nearly 1.5 million.

Cattle and horses are good to say, their movement speed is fast, if they are fast in a day, they can drive 200 miles, but sheep are not good, 100 miles is already a limit, and if you work harder, it is not impossible, but that is equivalent to putting the sheep in a dangerous situation, maybe, if you are not careful, these sheep will die.

On the premise of ensuring speed and safety, they traveled about 60 miles a day, and even rested for a day or two.

Fortunately, the time still remembers that they simply walked slowly, from Lingzhou to Weizhou, a distance of about 600 miles, a total of 12 days, fortunately, the preparation time of the Weizhou Conference was quite long, they finally arrived 3 days before the opening of the Weizhou Conference, and when the mighty herd of cattle arrived in Weizhou, they even met a series of welcomes.
