The price set by Zhu Youxiao is 9.82 for a one-bedroom and 13.82 for a two-bedroom apartment. But when the house was launched, the sales were completely unexpected, except for the façade house, which was sold out, the other rooms could not be sold, and even some users who had received compensation houses were selling their houses.

Hearing the news, Zhu Youxiao was really dumbfounded, he didn't expect that the house would be unsalable. Jingshi's demand for houses is huge, and they are all rigid needs. In recent years, a large number of displaced people have poured in from the surrounding areas of Jingshi, and with the economic development of Jingshi, many displaced people have a stable income, and their demand for housing is great.

Zhu Youxiao decided to find out for himself what happened? Why is the house unsalable?

It was impossible for Zhu Youxiao to do a market research, so he decided to go to Xiaoxiao, who was doing business in Jingshi and knew more about the situation in Jingshi than the people in the palace.

"Xiaoxiao, do you know that I have a house for sale in the area of Wang Gongchang?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"I know, I've been paying attention to it since day one." Tiny replied.

"Then you should know that my house didn't sell well. It should be said that it is very poor. Zhu Youxiao said depressedly.

"Yes, I went out to find out." Xiao nodded and said.

"Do you know why?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Most of the people who worked in Fengqiuhuang's workshop used to be homeless, but now they have a great demand for housing, and many people have learned about the emperor's house, and they all reflect that the emperor's commercial housing is moderate, but there is a very obvious defect, that is, there is no stove and cannot cook." Trail.

"No stove!" Only then did Zhu Youxiao suddenly realize that his tube building was too modern for this era, and there was no honeycomb coal in this era, let alone liquefied gas.

"Yes, if this problem can be solved, I believe that the sales of His Majesty's house will definitely increase greatly." Trail.

"Do you have any other opinions on the design of the bathroom?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Although the room is not big, it is very suitable for people who have just come to Jingshi and have some savings in their hands, as well as those who buy it for rent, and the design of the bathroom is also no problem and very convenient. However, there are also strong opinions regarding the collection of sanitation fees. "Trail.

"This is not a problem, in the future, all the people in Beijing will have to collect sanitation fees per household. Merchants are slightly higher, and ordinary people are slightly lower. Zhu Youxiao said.

"Collecting taxes? I'm afraid that the whole Beijing people will oppose this. "Trail.

"There will definitely be a lot of resistance at the beginning, but this must be implemented, this expenditure is not big, but the court and the internal treasury alone can not support it for a long time, this is a public facility, it is natural that it should be taken from the people, and the health fees collected must also be used by the people." Zhu Youxiao explained.

"Your Majesty, you still need to think twice about this matter." Xiaoxiao said again.

"Liao Salary was also levied back then, so I don't believe why the health fee can't be levied? What's more, my sanitation expenses are very low, ordinary people will not exceed one cent of silver per month, and merchants will not exceed two cents of silver at most. Zhu Youxiao said.

"Although the tax is not high, even if it is levied a copper dollar, there will be people who oppose it." Trail.

"That's for sure, but I'm going to do it." Zhu Youxiao said firmly.

"If the emperor can solve the problem of cooking, I am preparing to buy a batch of houses for the managers of Fengqiuhuang, most of the workers in Fengqiuhuang used to be homeless, and there was no fixed property in Beijing, this batch of housing was only issued to them in advance, if they have worked in Fengqiuhuang for five years, the housing will be given to them, and I have also prepared a carriage to be responsible for picking them up every day." Trail.

"That's a good idea, how did you come up with it?" Zhu Youxiao asked in surprise.

Xiao Xiao smiled shyly and said, "I often heard the emperor talk about some welfare systems, so I thought of this matter. And with the development of the economy in Beijing, the housing prices in Beijing are also rising, and the price of your commercial housing is actually one percent lower than the housing prices on the market. ”

"This is an attempt, there are too many people in Jingshi who need housing." Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "There is also the problem of cooking that is very easy to solve, and I already have a way." ”

"What's the solution?" Xiao asked in surprise.

"Honeycomb coal. When I go to the workshop and make a sample, you'll know. Zhu Youxiao said with a smile. Zhu Youxiao is very familiar with honeycomb coal, from the furnace to honeycomb coal, he is very familiar with every step. This is probably one of the futuristic technologies that he is most familiar with, without it.

"Then Feng Qiuhuang will buy a hundred houses first." Xiaoxiao heard Zhu Youxiao say this, and she knew that Zhu Youxiao would definitely be able to solve it.

"How's the socks selling?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"It's still being delivered, but the response has been very good, and there are already people willing to buy this new sock, which is expected to be sold next year, and I plan to build a socks production workshop next to the garment workshop." Xiao Xiao said happily.

"This will be another profit growth point for Fengqiuhuang." Zhu Youxiao nodded and said.

"I expect socks to be 30% more profitable than ready-to-wear." Trail.

"I'm going to go to Liaodong in the middle of next year, do you want to go with me to have a look?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"The phoenix in Liaodong is also under construction, I can just go and see it." Xiao Xiao said happily.

……

Although the principle of the coal stove and the tools for producing honeycomb coal are simple, it took three days to complete the production. Xiaoxiao and Zhu Youxiao witnessed the first burning of honeycomb coal in this world.

"Xiaoxiao, what do you think?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Emperor Shengming, this honeycomb coal is not only used for cooking, but also for heating." Trail.

"Burning coal is the same as burning charcoal, you must pay attention to ventilation, otherwise it is easy to cause gas poisoning. This must be noted. Zhu Youxiao emphasized.

"I know, I'll let them know." Xiao nodded and said.

"I will emphasize this matter in the "Ming Imperial Daily". Zhu Youxiao said.

"Your Majesty, I need a hundred coal stoves and thirty tools for producing honeycomb coal at a time." Trail.

"This is easy to do, I will give you the drawings, and you will find fifty blacksmiths to produce such a coal stove." Zhu Youxiao said.

"In that case, then soon the whole ......" Xiao Xiao asked confusedly, but soon she understood, "I know what to do?" ”

"I want to promote honeycomb coal as quickly as possible." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.
