Chapter 136: The Grass Market Opens to the Water's Edge
"You may think that this matter is expensive and annoying, but you think that this matter is a rare opportunity for Wannian County and you to spread the prosperity of the empire, and secondly, so many martyrs are also believers in Buddhism and Taoism, you should not take it lightly, it is not easy for each of them to spread their own reputation."
"Ladies and gentlemen, Dongfeng has been sought for you, but it should be emphasized that you need to live in harmony in the activities, and each of you needs to use your own temples and Taoist temples, if you find unpleasant cases in the streets, you will not be spared."
"If a case is discovered, Wannian County will publish a case, not only limited to the county party black list, but also in front of the ferry at the gate of each city, and a certain person cannot lose this face in front of the people of Quanyan and Tang Dynasty."
The crowd agreed.
"Wannian County will not be idle, in addition to the March 8 festival meeting, a certain will also hold a variety of memorial activities, such as Qujiang Pond floating lights, outings outside the city, etc., everyone needs to discuss it, how to organize and deal with the aftermath need a charter."
"This matter is led by the old man Zuo, you have experience in the flower market lantern festival, you can follow the example"
"Something can be like the Lantern Festival?" Zuo Xuande was a little confused, his silk shop and jade shop in the flower market were all in the limelight, so it was good to make these in a place of sorrow?
"You need to change your thinking, and the martyrs naturally need to mourn heavily, but the martyrs' families still need to continue to live, and the grace of a meal given by you will also spread to the whole Yantang at that time, and the martyrs who can go to Chang'an are not untouchables, you understand?"
Everyone was enlightened, and they all suddenly became enlightened.
Yes, they all thought that the martyrs were a burden, but they never thought that the soldiers who could still go to the house were all from good families, and even many of them were rich and wealthy, so they had the leisure to prepare their own soldiers to join the soldiers, they were quite influential forces in various places, and now the saints and the court have the title of their martyrs, isn't that a reputation to the next level? If you find one or two suitable partners, such as in Gangnam Province, in Hebei Province, and even in Andong and Anxi on the border, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort to open up the trade route?
Dugu Xinci held a cup of tea by himself, drank a few sips slowly, and left everyone with space for reverie.
"On the eighth day of the first month of March, the Daming Palace dojo, the saint will also lead a hundred officials to pay tribute, the two families of Buddhism and Taoism are divided into east and west sides, you need to be cautious and do your best, if anyone goes out of the pool, then there will be only one family left next year" Dugu Xinci warned everyone again.
"Okay, this matter will be arranged like this first, and Jiang will join the army within three days to make a charter and discuss it with everyone, and make a list of announcements."
"Let's talk about one more thing, do you know that you have received a million lanterns from the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival? A certain will be rearranged by the Hibiscus Pond, if you have time to go to the venue, of course, you need to pay an entrance fee of 10 Wen, which will be used for the cost of the memorial event after being used for daily expenses."
"A place called Furong Pond Amusement Park, covers a large area, about three or four hundred acres, after opening up the passage of Zhaoguofang and Dunhuafang, it can connect the shortcut of Qujiang Pond and Ci'en Temple, and this place has one of the biggest advantages, that is, this place is not in Zhufang, so there is an idea, can a grass market be opened here?"
"Kaicao City?" Everyone is puzzled, Chang'an has two cities, east and west, each city has more than 200 lines, pen shops, wine shops, iron shops, meat shops, engraving and printing shops, etc., as well as donkey renters, huqin buyers, acrobatics, pipa masters, goods and wealth people... The shops are adjacent to each other, and the merchants gather, which is already extremely prosperous.
To the newly opened grass market in the south of the city? Is anyone going?
"The annual flow of people in the Temple of Mercy and Grace is more than five million, Qujiang Pond and Furong Garden also have this number, there is still the original Qinglong Temple Chongji Temple nearby, and it is closer to the east and west cities than the Qide Gate, the Furong Pond is connected to the Yellow Canal and the Longshou Canal, and the goods and things of Nanshan Duqu and Lantian can be entered into this transaction along the water, and when the grass market is not closed, you can enter the market for 12 hours.
This is much more powerful than the information that forced the two families of Buddhism and Taoism to receive the martyrs' families just now, open a new market? A new market that doesn't stop for twelve hours? Although the south of the city is sparsely populated, there are more than 300,000 people, especially around the Ci'en Temple and the Qujiang Pond of the Furong Garden.
The east and west markets are now open at noon and closed at unitary time, which is only three hours of trading time, how can it be for businessmen?
"This matter is divided into three steps, the first step is to open up an amusement park, with the theme of the lantern show, supplemented by a hundred plays, to attract children to enter the park, the second step is to divide the lot to build a house, may not be enough area, but don't forget, the house of Qinglongfang is much cheaper than Pingkangfang, rent the houses in the surrounding square as a house, only leave a shop by the Furong pool, more than 300 acres of land can be more spacious than the east and west markets"
"Wannian County has made a preliminary plan, can be divided into more than 500 three-entry houses, for fairness and justice, can be auctioned, the highest bidder wins, the shop is planned and constructed in a unified manner, and the rest of the money is allocated to the repair cost of Guangyuntan"
"The two sides of Guangyun Lake are also planned within 100 steps, and they are all built mansions, and they are also auctioned on the spot, and the remaining money is also allocated to the dredging costs of Guangyun Pond."
"Ladies and gentlemen, the repair of the eastern section of Guangyuntan and Caoqu has been assigned to Wannian County to complete independently, this is the responsibility and opportunity of Wannian County, a military order has been made in front of the sage, if it cannot be completed within two years, a certain will enter the water to meet with the Chinese teacher"
"Of course, a certain has the confidence to undertake this matter, a certain also has the ability to restore the former glory of Guangyun Pond, not to mention the restoration of the annual transport capacity of five million stones in the two Han Dynasty, the recovery of the capacity of three million stones in the previous dynasty is still confident, you can imagine, Guangyun Tan from less than 600,000 stones to 3 million stones, this is not a simple doubling of the account, this is a leap change, you guys, can you have the confidence to bet with a certain handful? The victory will completely solve the dilemma of lack of transportation capacity in Wannian County for many years, and the loser will ..... There is no intention of defeat."
Everyone was completely aroused by Dugu Xinci's ambition, the capacity of 600,000 stone of Guangyuntan is now a daily flow of more than 10,000 people, the annual capacity of three million, is really not a five-fold account algorithm, first of all, the increase of tenfold labor boatmen, related shipbuilding and ship repair and other industries of prosperity is inevitable, now in Chang'an City is not only the lack of food, but also a lot of gold, silver, molybdenum, tin, silk and satin, porcelain and wine utensils, famous wine and tea, four treasures of the study, precious medicinal materials are in short supply, every year the rich go to Luoyang to purchase such things, And the price is more than Luoyang I don't know how much, if you can transport the things in the south of the Yangtze River and Hedong to Chang'an in a steady stream, that kind of situation is drunk?
"The initial idea of a certain is to let the new ships built to Huayin be able to pass 300 Hu, and it is also possible to pass 400 ships after calculation, and Guangyun Tan has been calculated, after dredging, 500 ships can be parked, and a dam can be built on Guangyun Lake to lift water, dredge the ditch between Chanba, and set up Wangchun Tower in Changle Slope, so that the items of Guangyun Tan can be directly transferred to the boat into the Longshou Canal and directly lead to the Furong Pond, everyone, in this way, is it much more convenient?"
Isn't it much more convenient? Everyone is familiar with the 10,000-year-old region, and silently thought, if this matter is done, the transportation capacity is not a matter of doubling, it is more than ten times, and all kinds of things do not need to be transported by land, and the cost saved is afraid that it will also be doubled.
"A certain willingness to help the Ming Mansion achieve this, this is the blessing of ten thousand years, and the luck of Chang'an" The fastest response is Zuo Xuande, otherwise how would he become the richest man in ten thousand years?
"A certain is also willing to help the Ming Mansion" Many merchants have shouted, and a number of princely palace stewards and monks are also shouting, their demand for goods is no longer under the merchants, and they have also been exhausted by the poor transportation capacity of Caoqu over the years.
The Yellow River can pass 500 Hu big boats, Wei River 400 Hu is no longer a problem, but all need to detour through Xianyang into Kunming Pool, and then turn to land transportation, regardless of land transport Cao Yun need to detour through Chang'an County, if Chang'an County's poor Cao Canal capacity, that is a drop in the bucket, some items are delayed for three months and half a year is also a common thing, and if the new construction can pass 400 Hu big boats, from Guangyun Lake to the shore into the house, or directly on the boat through Changle Slope into the Longshou Canal, that is smooth sailing, plus the grass market by the Furong Pond, the time and cost saved are afraid that I can't sleep in the middle of the night.
"Guangyun Pond pre-built 1,000 three-entry halls, 500 under the Changle slope, plus 500 Furong Pond, you will visit the site within three days, there are Wannian County officials in all parts of the reception, three days later this building here, Wannian County will prepare thin wine, public auction, this matter Wannian County is only supervision, now it is necessary to elect five principals, related matters and accounts also need to be open and transparent, do you have any objections?"
"Okay, now Wannian County is acting with Wen County Cheng, only the position of liaison in the residence, Zhang Yaoting is the main book to review and supervise the accounts, and the two county lieutenants are also only responsible for maintaining order, and you are the election director, and you are responsible for the auction and construction separation, this preparatory committee, well, let's call it the Caoqucao City Preparatory Committee first, and it will be handed over to the township elders of Wannian County, Wen County Cheng, a certain word is over, and the following matters are all handled by you, and a certain is not full, so he will retire first"
Dugu Xinci slipped away again in front of everyone's eyes, but he didn't go far away, he still returned to the private room, looked at the strange eyes of the saint and Wei Yixiao and Li Yuanhong, and ignored it, until Nalan Feiya sat down beside him, picked up chopsticks and grilled turtledoves to eat, but shouted, "Steward Feng, do you have any hot dishes, get a roast chicken, are you still hungry?" Stir-fry a bowl of egg fried rice, make this fish soup hot, Xiaoya will eat egg fried rice? Then fry a big bowl? ”
"Is a certain person also unfed? Thou shalt not ask so-and-so? Feng Yuanyi, the general manager on the other side, said resentfully.
"You won't tell it yourself, will you? Aren't you also a shareholder of Star Picking? "Dugu is dissatisfied.
"Somehow is full," the saint sighed.
"How much do you estimate this auction will cost?" King Dugu also asked.
"Two thousand, if each room is less than five hundred, then these people will give them four words, wine bags and rice bags" Dugu Xinci put down the cold roasted turtledove and picked up the wine, but was stopped by Nalan Feiya
"That's so-and-so's glass"
"Oh, I don't dislike it" Dugu Xinci muttered, and after drinking it all in one gulp, Nalan Feiya's face turned crimson, obviously remembering Quan Yiquan's theory of indirect kissing.
"Two thousand? 500 per room? That's a million guan? The saint was astonished, and the crowd was stunned.
"Do not think that you have a great number of five thousand? You can earn a million yuan for just one meal," Dugu sneered proudly, and President Wei Yixiao laughed.
"Runa Amusement Park was invited to participate, and now it's all in the hands of this organizing committee, so what should I do?"
"You're a mallet, huh? Why don't you go out and grab a director to do? Dugu Xinci scolded, Feng Yuan glanced at the saint and immediately slipped out.
"Today is considered to be insightful, a million yuan for a meal? A million? The ministers of the court have worked hard to plan for many years, but it is better for you to have a feast," the sage sighed.
"Everything is handed over to the Preparatory Committee, what do you do in this county?" Fu Yin Li Yuanhong asked again.
"Supervision, Wen Guyan County Cheng is not a mallet, naturally he will put forward the county party's shares and requirements in it, if it does not meet the interests of Wannian County, this preparatory committee can be abolished at any time" Dugu Xinci said irresponsibly.
"How can you be so relentless? How can a man stand in the world without faith? The demeanor, words and deeds of the court officials all represent the prestige of the Yan and Tang Dynasties, and once the preparatory committee is established, it must be prohibited, otherwise how can they serve the world? The saint rebuked.
"Oh, then the saint can make a decree to legalize it?" Dugu Xinci quibbled "someone who only listens to the saint"
"Uh" The sage found out that he had fallen for this son, and his words of cutting it off at any time were to block himself, but after thinking about it, if Guangyuntan could really be allowed to reach the point described by this son, Chang'an and Yan Tang were also the biggest beneficiaries, so he snorted coldly and said, "Can you find a place to act as an agent?" ”
"There is a restaurant in Guangyuntan that was bought, and it is now rented with the Ministry of Industry and Wannian to sign the office, of course, the Ministry of Industry is now withdrawn, then hand it over to the Preparatory Committee, the sage is willing to write a plaque, which is much stronger than Wannian County giving a name at will."
"With your calligraphy, wouldn't it be humiliating to write a few words?" The saint was dissatisfied.
"Books are precious to people, the words of the saint are treasured by Quanyan and Tang, and these words are the first person in the ages, and they are not as good as even a roast chicken."
Nalan Feiya sneered, and Feng Ping, who came in with a plate of roast chicken, was inexplicable.
"How about exchanging a hundred roast chickens for a hundred words?" The saint teased.
"At least two hundred roast chickens" Dugu Xinci doesn't matter, a hundred words? When do you not practice a thousand words before resting that night?
"So that's it?" The saint was suspicious.
"The sage first wrote a few words of the Guangyuntan Caoqu Management Committee of Wannian County, eleven words, one word for a roast chicken, and how about Rao Rujiu only counting twenty?" Dugu Xinci is the atmosphere when doing business.
"What do you want you to do with roast chicken?"
"Oh, the saint wants to be cashed? Twenty roast chickens cost 500 wen, right? ”
"So-and-so still has to be burned," the sage sighed.
Dugu Xinci hurriedly asked Feng to move a few cases and bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
The words of the sage can be seen that he has been learning Dugu Xinci recently, which is very atmospheric and flashy.
Dugu Xinci went out with the newly baked holy book, well, the words written by the saint are called holy books.
"Holy books? A certain exchange for twenty roast chickens, Zhang master book, bookkeeping,"
"Holy books? Wannian County Guangyun Tan Cao Canal Management Committee" Everyone watched and chattered.
"Don't know the holy books? The sage wrote it is called the holy book, and you wait for this preparatory committee to be renamed by a certain one, so it is called this, Wannian County Guangyun Tan Caoqu Management Committee, it will not be a grass platform team in the future, although this Guangyun Tan will be greedy for ink by the imperial court sooner or later, but you can also fight for it, participate in management, divide the interests and follow your convenience, but a certain can promise that as long as a certain county order in this Wannian County one day, this Guangyun Lake and Furong Garden Grass Market will play with you."
"Hehe, don't thank you, solve your own business, don't bother me if it's not a big deal"
Dugu Xinci went back to deal with his roast chicken with everyone's thousand thanks.
"This egg fried rice is good, isn't it? A certain idea."
The palace market is newly opened by the water, and the embroidered shirt is in front of the city. The wine lady didn't let the donkey cart go, and asked Liu Lang for the wine money
