Chapter 225: Move

"White Thorn History......

"The lower official is in the ......"

"This is a matter of attracting investment...... You're going to have to worry about it......"

"That's for sure! The festival makes the adults worry about my Chizhou, and the lower officials are already grateful! Now he led the army to quell the rebellion and destroyed the nest of the Xuanjing Mountain bandits, which can be said to be a big dowry for the people on this side! But...... Xia Guan dared to ask, the adults said that the investment promotion, in my understanding, but the merchants who come from the south to the north have attracted me to live and do business in Chizhou, so as to strengthen the economy of my Chizhou...... "Xi Xi The cool breeze passed through the hall, and Bai Duqiu was sitting in a precarious position, and after admiring it, his face was completely confused.

"Young people, you have to study more, like you, although you have attacked your father's title and held the land of Chizhou in your hands, you have not made any decent achievements...... As a party to the history of assassination, if it is judged according to the official system of the Tang Dynasty, this official cannot be said to be small. It's just that today's Datang is not like the Tang Dynasty in the past, it was at its peak, but those in power need to understand this matter a little better......"

Yan Yu said and took a sip of tea, and said, "I plan for Chizhou, and this first move is naturally a matter of attracting investment." But these simple four words contain a lot of meaning. For example, the city of Chizhou is too narrow and difficult to live in, and the city naturally cannot accommodate too many people, and there are few decent villages and towns outside the city. As the saying goes, scarcity is expensive, which has led to high housing prices in Chizhou. However, there is no economic foundation here, and the surrounding supporting facilities are poor, so the housing prices should not be so high...... This requires you to study well to ......"

"What my lord said is that any decent house in Chizhou is probably more than eight thousand taels, which is more than twice as high as that of Jianzhou and other places......

"That's right! This proves a problem, there is still a demand for housing in Chizhou, if everyone does not want to live in Chizhou, no matter how you go up, it is impossible to list the housing prices as inflated......" Yan Yu sighed, "Such housing prices, rich families can naturally afford to live, how can ordinary people afford to live......"

"What my lord said is that it is only a matter of wealth and poverty, which has existed since ancient times, but it is not something that we can sort out......"

"No ......"

Saying that, Yan Yu hurriedly said, "There are naturally rich and poor, but the gap must not be too large, especially in my Lingnan side, I will never allow such a situation to ......."

......

"You're right! I didn't expect you to have some ideas, but why didn't you implement them before! Since it comes to attracting investment, there must be a strategy and a plan...... These leaders in your state should study it quickly and implement it well! For example, it is necessary to introduce some specific measures to help promote this matter, and all merchants who come to Chizhou to do business will be exempted from taxes within five years, and their children's schooling will be free of charge, and the government will also ...... Yes...... I mean, the state also has to give a certain amount of subsidies to the merchants who come here on an annual basis, after all, home relocation here needs financial and policy support. You should study things like this carefully, study them carefully......"

"My lord, I think I already have some ideas......" Bai Duqiu smiled slightly, as if she also felt very reasonable, and then admired Yan Yu's expression more and more, "What should I do with the word investment......

"In fact, this investment attraction is one thing, and when businessmen are summoned, they can naturally prosper the economy of one side, which is investment. But when I talk about attracting investment, I want to do something big. For example, compared to other states and counties, the economy is not high, but it has a tradition of iron-making. Chizhou's swords have always been famous all over the world, but the problem is that the scale is too small for the imperial court to take into account at all. Then, every year, most of the manufacturing bureaus of the imperial court also purchased a batch of high-quality armaments from Longquan and other places, so that the small workshop-style operation of Chizhou missed the opportunity. However, I think Chizhou's iron-making skills are much more advanced than him. So...... I have also been thinking about building an iron-making industry chain in Chizhou, specifically, the initial idea is to build a huge iron-making city. All merchants who set up shops in this area to make irons are exempt from the general tax burden, and only charge a certain trade tariff according to the size of the trade volume. If this iron-making city can accommodate 300 to 500 merchants, in this way, once the scale effect rises, let alone the imperial court, I think, even the northern and southern countries will have to buy military supplies from here......"

"It's really better to listen to your words, than to read for ten years......" Bai Duqiu became more and more excited by Yan Yu's words, stood up tightly, and paced back and forth for two steps, "Oh! That's right! And that Xuanjing Mountain......"

"Xuanjing Mountain?"

"Yes! My lord! There are no bandits in the Xuan Realm now, and the road is peaceful, so you can make the Xiongyan City in the mountain into many inns, so that people who go out to play can stay there for a while longer, and enjoy the beautiful scenery in the mountain, besides...... Alpine rhododendrons, glacial streams and waterfalls are all available, and the scenery there is unbeatable in the other place......"

"Well, the view from there is really good! Of course, the development of tourism is also a thing, and I say this just to remind you and give you an introduction, and the leaders of your state need to study more such things...... Accelerate implementation! ”

"The subordinate will definitely do it!"

"Ah...... That's right! Bai Duqiu saw Yanyu get up, and asked tightly, "My lord! There's one more thing I want to ask for an explicit ......."

"Say ......"

"My lord is respected as the king of Han, and now he has received the post of envoy of the Lingnan Festival, so ...... this official office"

"This matter, to put it bluntly, I am also worried, to build a Han palace in this Chizhou, but it is suffering from the lack of silver taels, and the dependents of the new army want to settle here, and the construction of the martyrs' cemetery, all need money, I roughly estimated it yesterday, it should be another 700,000 taels, this cost, where to raise it......" Yan Yu sighed when he heard it, shook his head, and felt helpless, "It's better to talk about it later......"

"My lord! I'll raise the 700,000 taels of silver! ”

"You?"

"How are you going to raise it?"

Yan Yu was surprised for a moment, and then asked, "Wouldn't it be a loot of people's wealth?" ”

"Naturally it's not ......" Bai Duqiu smiled lightly, "My lord forgot, although Chizhou has no money, but I, Bai Duqiu, really know a few rich friends......"

"Rich friends? You're talking about ......"

"King Zheng Li Congjia's doorman, Ling Fusu!"

"King Zheng? Ling Fusu? Who is he? Will there be so much money? ”

"After the huge room of the wealthy family of Su, don't say that it is 700,000 taels, if you are a friend, it is a million giants, he will never blink, he is a guest of His Royal Highness King Zheng, over the years, His Royal Highness King Zheng has traveled through the mountains and rivers, forgetting the world, and he is also funding ......"

"Your Royal Highness King Zheng you are talking about, Li Congjia, the correct name is Li Yu?"

"Not bad! It's him! Bai Duqiu hurriedly said when he heard this, "Now that King Wu has committed a heinous crime, I am afraid that there will be no day to turn over, Your Majesty has pinned all his hopes on King Zheng, but he is good at art and has no thoughts about the government, but it is a difficult thing!" ”

"It turns out that King Zheng is Li Yu, if it is according to the trajectory of historical development, King Zheng will inevitably ascend the throne, but after ascending the throne again, I can no longer watch him decline like this, he doesn't know that the country is ruined, but I can't let history repeat itself! It's time to meet him......" Yan Yu muttered for a moment, then patted Bai Duqiu's shoulder and said, "So...... It would be a wonderful thing if he was willing to borrow money, and then I would pay him back......"

"Don't worry, my lord, it's wrapped around my white twilight at this time......"

"That's right! Borrowing money is just one thing, I ...... I really want to meet His Royal Highness King Zheng......"

"It's that easy!" Bai Duqiu smiled, "Don't say that Ling Fusu is his most proud guest, but the adults want to see King Zheng now, with your respect as the king of Han, you can see ...... at any time."

"That's good! You arrange, I want to see him before the big wedding! ”
