Wu Zetian asked Qin Shaoyou to visit King Luling, but Qin Shaoyou was slightly flustered, but when he got out of the palace, he seemed to understand again.

It is nothing more than Qin Shaoyou intensifying the contradiction today, if at this time, Qin Shaoyou will deal with the King of Luling again, and the King of Linzi is afraid that Qin Shaoyou is more instructed by Li Xian, and it is estimated that the two kings of the Li family will make even more trouble.

Qin Shaoyou was in a very good mood, he didn't go to Ruchun Restaurant, but went out of the city directly and returned to his Zhuangzi.

So many things happened that day, but he was exhausted, and he rested in the Zhuangzi for the night, and the next morning, he got up in good spirits, and he went around the Zhuangzi with his hands behind his back.

Zhuangzi has expanded a lot, not so much Zhuangzi as a 'city', now there is a county town here, and the popularity is more lively, the main reason is that it is also related to the unique goods here.

Whether it is popsicles and tea, or even tea oil, firecrackers and other things, in this world are in addition to this one, there is no semicolon, plus these are best-selling goods, so that many businesses are afraid of starting late, have squatted here, how much to produce, they will rob a clean, this trade is never a loss, a thousand dollars into the tea, if you have the ability to send it to Shuzhong, the price can be worth 10,000 dollars, as for tea oil, firecrackers and other things are also very profitable, so many businessmen simply hired people to squat here, these people usually do nothing, The only thing is to negotiate with people here, saying that they are idle, and they are not lacking, and these people always have to rent a house, and they have to eat tea with people in the teahouse and restaurant every now and then, so that all kinds of business are also tightened.

Originally, a small market opened up by Qin Shaoyou was overcrowded, and there were more and more brokers, merchants, and people who wanted to buy and sell, and now the scale is constantly expanding. It's just that this place is far from Luoyang City after all, Luoyang City is magnificent and magnificent, and the pattern of each place is planned, and the pavilions and pavilions are overwhelming. And here's it. But it was a mess, with small brick and stone buildings that had been repaired and tents that had been erected temporarily, but the scale was terrifying for miles.

Changshi Chen Jie followed Qin Shaoyou all the way and talked about many rare things after Qin Shaoyou came out of the plug. For example, recently, the dealers have another business, because there are many outsiders, the inns in this market are expensive and overcrowded, so many merchants and brokers rent the houses of the nearby dealers, these outsiders are trading after all, but they are not stingy with money, and after a month, many dealers have more consistent income.

There are also many displaced people from outside, who want to come with their families and mouths. In fact, this is also a matter of course, life here is rich, and there are naturally many people who come to join it.

Chen Jie didn't dare to make a claim on this matter. This fugitive is involved in all aspects of the problem, at this time slaves, can be roughly divided into three kinds, a kind of official slaves, that is, criminal slaves and slaves who steal the house, in addition to private slaves and monastic purifiers, most of the private slaves are raised by the high gate, these people escaped. When there is nowhere to go, they go incognito, and some people take refuge in other high gates, so many high gates often cause disputes over such things.

Of course, whether it is an official slave or a private slave. In fact, it's all good, what really makes people jealous, in fact, is the monastery pure people, when today's son is a good Buddha, so the temple near Luoyang was built to enshrine many monks as national teachers, and these temples raised a large number of slaves. Often this kind of slave worship of monks is actually the most miserable life, if it is only a private slave, after all, this is the private property of the wealthy family, and they must not be allowed to freeze to death and starve to death, freeze to death and starve to death, and it is always themselves who suffer. However, most of the slaves in the temple are slaves rewarded by the government, and the monks in the temple have no descendants after all, and naturally there is no concept of so-called private property.

Here in Luoyang, the most popular fugitive slaves are often these monastery purifiers, but it is often these people who refuse to take them in, because on the one hand, the Son of Heaven is a good Buddha, so that now the monks have a lot of privileges, on the other hand, many high-ranking disciples are followers of Buddhism, so naturally they dare not offend the 'Buddha'.

Qin Shaoyou also knew a little about this kind of thing, he frowned, and was indecisive for a while: "You try your best to screen, if it is obviously a fugitive slave, don't cause trouble, but if you are really lonely, you might as well take it in, we are here to make tea, ice, and oil are all carried out in secret, and those who go in are isolated from the outside, and in this world, it is impossible for people who have not received the holy order to go to our oil mills, tea workshops and ice cellars to investigate, and the king of heaven is not afraid of coming." ”

This is the benefit of Qin Shaoyou Zhuangzi, on the one hand, it is now Tiance Mansion, and this Tiance Mansion itself is relatively independent, plus many of his workshops, in order to keep secrets, the craftsmen inside are isolated from the outside, and now the production of tea has been involved in state affairs, who has the courage to break into their own workshop?

Chen Jie should take it down, wait for Qin Shaoyou to inspect for a week, and check the accounts, and found that Zhuangzi's surplus has reached a terrifying point of reaching tens of thousands of guan a month, and he can't help but smack his tongue, this does not include the expenses in Zhuangzi, such as Qin Shaoyou in the place where he docks, set up several granaries, hoarding a large amount of grain every year, if he encounters a good year, he is buying a large number of grains, these grains are now hoarded in Zhuangzi and the granaries on the shore, piled up like a mountain, and the annual cost of buying grain exceeds tens of thousands.

This kind of accumulation of wealth has reached the point of jaw-dropping, the world's money and grain are like snowballs, frantically converging towards Zhuangzi, and these money and grain have become swords, guns, swords, and halberds for the unity camp, and have become grain, in addition, in order to ensure the absolute secrecy of the workshop, Qin Shaoyou looked at the millions of family fortunes that had been accumulated in this account book, and seemed to find that there seemed to be too many things he could do.

With this opening of the mansion, Qin Shaoyou really has a lot to do, such as recruiting his own subordinate officials, such as ...... Build a city.

That's right, with the expansion of the scale of production, especially the production of tea, in order to ensure absolute secrecy, but the more people involved in the production, the more people talk about it, and the only way to completely isolate the people who produce it is ...... It is to build a new city with Zhuangzi as the center, which will not only be the residence of Tiance Mansion, but also have a special production area, a special area for trading, and a special area for garrisoning and warehousing.

Nominally, Qin Shaoyou is not worried that his own city construction will bring too much convenience, because thousands of people are needed to participate in the production of tea to supply the north and south of the river, as well as the desert, so Qin Shaoyou has every reason to give Wu Zetian an explanation.

For Wu Zetian, controlling the desert so that his heavenly khan's throne will not be lost, the absolute monopoly of tea is very necessary, and the leakage of the secret recipe means that everyone in the world can make tea, even if the imperial court prohibits it, I am afraid that it will not be able to control it.

Building a city in this name, Wu Zetian will not object.

Moreover, Wu Zetian had the idea of pulling the Tiance army to be independent of the flying cavalry and the forbidden army, so cultivating Qin Shaoyou and boosting his strength seemed to be understandable in the short term.

In any case, the conditions for building the city have been fully met, Qin Shaoyou has money, and the palace will not object, these two points alone are enough.

However, to build a city, it is not taken for granted, this is back to the problem that Qin Shaoyou had to solve at the beginning...... That's talent.

In this era, not everyone has experience in building a city, and in fact, this is definitely a highly specialized mission, if you want to build a mansion is easy, but anyone with a little experience can do it, but to build a city, and the city must also have production, garrison, security, trade and other aspects of the function, this is not very simple.

In addition to this, Qin Shaoyou also needs to have many people with management experience, so Qin Shaoyou feels that he should settle down and make a good plan.

When people reach a certain level, they don't become rich, money is a necessity, but it is only one of the basic conditions, back to Zhuangzi, Qin Shaoyou thought about it again and again, and then stayed silently in the study, thinking and recalling hard.

In fact, he doesn't know much about history, but some specialized talents have dabbled a little, but they only know a little bit about it, so they must refer to it carefully.

Two days later, Princess Taiping Li Lingyue happened to come to Zhuangzi, Qin Shaoyou knew that Her Royal Highness the princess was Luoyangtong, a woman, probably more concerned about some gonzo, so he couldn't help but ask her: "Your Highness, have you heard of Yang Wulian?" ”

Li Lingyue was confused, blinked and said: "I haven't heard of it, you have been really weird recently, asking questions from east to west, and this palace is not a fine work, where do you know these things." ”

Qin Shaoyou smiled bitterly and said, "Then does Your Highness know that there are famous civil carpenters in this world?" ”

Li Lingyue frowned and thought about it, before saying: "I know one, there is a surname Yang, the civil engineering thing can be described as a miraculous skill, but then it seems that he was dismissed because of greed, he was specially appointed by the imperial court to be a master craftsman, it is said that his most powerful point is not only to build a city and build a palace, when he was in Qinzhou, he made a wooden person, looks like a monk, holds a bowl, can beg by himself, this palace remembers him because of this, oh, you said Yang Wulian, is it him?" ”
