Building a city is a cumbersome thing for the ancients, and the investment is large, the return is low, generally the government only spends a lot of effort to do such work, businessmen led the construction of the city in ancient times or the first time, Lu Bingchang's team did not win the construction project of Jiaolong County, even the construction project of Yuezhou City, their share of shares is also very low, after getting the new city construction drawings drawn on the boat on the way to Yanglin a few days ago, Lu Bingchang took people to start surveying the terrain and soil around Dongting Lake early in the morning.

As expected, the vegetation around Dongting Lake is dense, mostly dirt and mountains, which are suitable for building houses, and the drawings drawn by Yanglin are based on the background of the lakeside mountain, and the whole city is built on a large hillside near the lake, so that all the people of Yueyang City can see the lake view of Dongting Lake as soon as they open the window, as well as the design of the beach along the lake, in fact, it is like enough coastal cities in some European and American countries in later generations, coupled with the advanced planning knowledge of Yanglin, the city of hundreds of thousands of people is actually a larger urban community in later generations. After the beautiful layout of the Yanglin forest and the underground sewage system that has been built throughout the city from the beginning, Lu Bingchang can imagine how clean and beautiful the city will be after the construction is completed, and even the small houses on the river in Suzhou may not be comparable to its style.

If it is just to build residential houses, it is impossible for Lu Bingchang, who is now a commercial predator, to say 'regret not being at the beginning'. In the overall planning of the city, Yanglin has reserved a large area of vacant land, which can be used to build commercial real estate projects, commercial streets, and the wholesale market of goods open to the whole of southern Xinjiang, it can be said that Yuezhou will be the front station base camp for the imperial court to sell goods to the Miao tribes in Xiangxi in the future, and it is also the raw material acquisition place for the special products of Miao Xinjiang that is everywhere as the horse master said, Lu Bingchang regretted that he should not invest most of his money in the markets of Yangzhou and Suzhou, and the funds he could use were very limited when guiding the development of Yuezhou.

In fact, if there are banks in this world, Lu Bingchang's worries are completely unnecessary, with such a large asset investment, plus the signboard of the Lu family, he can find a bank to borrow a lot of money to develop new projects. Now it is cheaper Gong Moru of Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce, the old guy's life savings, the amount of wealth is amazing, and he invested one million yuan in one breath to take one-third of the commercial shares of Yuezhou New Town, and the rest was divided into one or two percent by the merchants, and the horse master himself accounted for half of the total shares and became the largest shareholder of Yuezhou New Town.

"Hehehe, Brother Lu! You're near the water, but you haven't gotten the moon! Why don't you have a rise and gain knowledge by your side! The old man only admits one reason, since he doesn't have the intelligence of a colt, why not follow his footsteps. What he does, the old man will follow what he does, as soon as this plan comes out, the old man's children and grandchildren will have something to rely on, almost half a city is enough for my Gong family to pass on hundreds of thousands of years in Yuezhou, but I am afraid that it will not be weaker than your Jiangnan Lu family at that time. "Gong Moru is also followed by a huge Gong group, like the Lu family, this time he brought a lot of descendants, and Yanglin still has to rely on the people in their hands to build a new city. to be able to turn what is on the drawing into reality.

Lu Bingchang, who had a black face, wanted to reply to him a few words, but found that he had no words available, and the commercial plots in Yuezhou City occupied one-third of the city, according to the drawings. There are hundreds of shops and large warehouses of all kinds, not to mention the operation of all these places in the future, even if they are all rented out, the rent received every month is a large amount. Datang does not have a law for the use of land for 70 years, once a contract is signed with the imperial court, as long as Datang does not fall. The land will forever belong to the purchaser's descendants, and as long as his descendants do not lose their fortunes and sell the shops, this dividend is enough to support them for a prosperous life.

Yanglin came, in a group of businessmen flattering smiles, several selected new city construction points waiting for Yanglin to be finalized, holding up the telescope to look at the mountains along the lake, Yanglin at a glance in the smallest slope, the largest area of the green mountain, in addition to these two, his two sides are also next to a few smaller mountains, this is the future development of Yuezhou reserved land, the first phase of the project to complete a new type of city that can reach up to one million people, with commercial and scenic land accounting for half of the city, with the development of population, If you add high-rise buildings, this central city will have a population of 500 to 10 million in the future, and then look at Yueyanglou, which is only a few miles away from the new city, it will also become a scenic tourist area outside Yueyang City.

"Come here, take soil samples, investigate the depth of groundwater, including several nearby hills have been surveyed clearly, the location is determined, but these numbers determine the final scale of Yuezhou New Town, you can choose your own location to build bricks, cement, wood and other factories, the standard is that with the completion of the construction of Yuezhou City, these factories can be evacuated at any time."

The businessmen of Suzhou and Yangzhou are very aware of the environmental awareness that the horse master said, the brick and tile cement factories outside Chang'an City are under construction fifty miles away from the city, and even go to the Weishui River, the horse master still thinks that the smoke brought by the kiln fills the sky, the kiln factory in Yangzhou and Suzhou is directly arranged to the leeward place, Yuezhou is no exception, after the businessmen designated the location of the new city in Yanglin, they began to look for a place that is advantageous and can ensure that it does not obstruct the eyes of the horse, and a qiē seems to be in the process of proceeding. Zhang Jian, who only had the opportunity to get out of the Assassin Yamen at ten points in the evening, thought that it was inappropriate, how could the new city be without walls and fortifications? Build a city wall first, this is the truth since ancient times, what is a city without a wall? Without the protection of the tall walls, can the people live in the city with peace of mind?

"The walls of Yuezhou City are also tall! Are those weapons just scythes and bamboo spears blocked by water bandits? No, it is by no means the city wall that can block the enemy, in my opinion, except for the royal palace of His Majesty, which needs to build a palace wall to block idle people, etc., all the other cities do not need city walls, especially inland cities, if the bandits threaten the city, it is the dereliction of duty of all local officials, once the city wall is built, the city wall will naturally become the protective position of the defenders, and it is the only one, once the city wall is breached, the people of the city will become lambs to the slaughter, the four gates are blocked, they don't even have a chance to escape, If the bandits are too strong to be invincible, the people can also evacuate in all directions, keep their property, and the chance of survival is greater, you can play my original words to your majesty, you have such a right, I believe that your majesty also wants to see such an explanation, even if there is any leakage in the future, you don't have to take responsibility, In my new city plan, there is no plan to build a brick-hungry city wall that blocks the road. ”

Yanglin's god replied to the shocked thinking, but Zhang Jian, who came from the corner, was stunned, without a city wall, would anyone dare to live? Especially in the Dongting Lake area, where bandits are rampant.

Yanglin is Qincha, in charge of local affairs, even if Zhang Jian has some opinions, he can only play the imperial court, let the emperor decide, the construction of Yuezhou New City began, the first to be stationed in the admission is 100,000 water bandits captured Qingzhuang, their family has been placed in Crocodile County, which is also a newly built small county, originally just a town, the name of Jiaolong County is too domineering, Crocodile County is the final name of Yanglin, these young people have only completed the daily workload, Their families can enjoy the food distributed by the imperial court, including their own food, and as long as they work until the construction of the new city is completed, they will be liberated, the imperial court will not only remove their sins, but also make a new register, let them return to the civil register, and at the same time let them enjoy almost the same treatment as the people of Yuezhou City, but their place of residence will be Crocodile County, and the aquaculture industry base of Yuezhou in the future.

The old town of Yuezhou will become an industrial zone, and many manufacturing workshops of the top ten factories in the east and west will settle in, becoming the busiest place, here is another profit point for this investment in addition to shops, Lu Bingchang should not doubt Yanglin's planning ability, and there are business opportunities everywhere to rectify a piece of rotten land in three or two clicks.

The rare scene of Yanglin, the shopkeeper of the hand, was busy for a while, until Xue Cong's 5,000 Suzhou sailors rushed to Yuezhou New Town, the chaotic building order was effectively improved, with the supervision of officers and soldiers, the bandits and the people became much more honest, and most of the available people were picked out from the construction site by the escort team and mixed into the Dongting Navy Division Military Port, which was about to start construction.

"The land of Yuezhou is destined to be prosperous, but I don't have time to wait here until it is fully built, I have several guiding opinions for the future governance of Yuezhou, you must remember, the first point is to prohibit the cutting down of trees along the lake, to prevent soil erosion, and to protect the environment is very important, whether Yuezhou New City can be beautiful forever, depends on whether you usually do a good job of protection.

The second point is to pay attention to protect the rights and interests of the Miao people in Xiangxi who come to Yuezhou for sightseeing and shopping, not only to serve them enthusiastically, but also not to allow any fraud and discrimination, in the future they will become the food and clothing parents of the people of Yuezhou City, and what kind of attitude do you need to have towards your parents.

The third point is to require the Dongting Naval Army, you must be diligent in practicing water skills, do not require how much conquest work, at least can deter Yuezhou Quartet Xiaoxiao, irregular military exercises to be held, the momentum is no problem, the imperial court is now rich, water ships and Shenwei cannons will sooner or later give you complete equipment, all the soldiers who moved from Suzhou to Yuezhou can bring their families to come, each naval army soldier family can at least get a regular employee job in the Yuezhou branch, provided that you must ensure the safety of Yuezhou City, As long as there are no problems in two or three years, there will be no problems in the future.

After more than half a month of seeing with his own eyes how Yanglin deploys Yuezhou things, Zhang Jian has already admired him for the five bodies, and the new Dongting Water Master Governor Xue Cong is the head of Yanglin's horse, although the two are of the same level in the official position, but they still have the title of Zhongwu Marquis, and they are the first captain of Tianzi, the same prince, and he is also a Qincha, so he can't be disrespectful and obey his orders.

Just as Yanglin was about to return to Suzhou after arranging a group of Yuezhou affairs, the personal soldiers of the escort team suddenly came to report that a large number of Miao people appeared hundreds of miles away from the city. (To be continued......)
