【Ask for a commuter pass】

"Autumn fragrance!" Li Yuanxing called softly.

Qiu Xiang, who was directing the maids to clean up the study, immediately stood beside Li Yuanxing.

"Do you know the price of silk in Chang'an?" Li Yuanxing asked softly.

"If you go back to Your Highness, the maid knows something. Rainbow brocade has no color difference, and the price of Lemin Garden is about eighty-five to ninety, which is a standard 100-foot brocade. However, some people have few people in their homes, and the shops have begun to have two kinds of 30 feet and 50 feet, and the prices are about the same, and one foot is the same price! ”

Li Yuanxing said in his heart, it's so expensive!

After thinking about it, Li Yuanxing asked again: "This king remembers that when Yaozhou ordered, a set of rainbow brocade clothes was only more than 800 yuan, will the store suffer at this price now?" ”

"Your Highness, the old loom is only four feet six inches wide, and the new loom is eight feet eight inches wide. Now the price of one foot has always been heard to have risen in the past month, four months ago, a horse was only more than forty runs, women's clothing if a single piece, not at all, three at the same time, only need four or five feet. But to make a big skirt, one person needs three feet. ”

Li Yuanxing looked at Qiu Xiang's figure and said in his heart. In terms of area, twelve square feet is enough for a short coat on the top and a skirt on the bottom.

Datang's dress does not have a 360-degree skirt like the one in later generations.

"This king is a little confused, you have time to help this king calculate. Now that the size of silk has widened, the selling price must be higher for foreigners, and the calculation in the heart of this king is that silk merchants sell in Chang'an. It should be lower than the price of 30% to 40% for foreign merchants, but they still don't want to sell to foreign merchants, there is no need to rush this matter, this king wants a result. ”

"Can you ask the officers of the Department of Security to check some details?"

"Don't make a noise, this king just wants to know in his heart!" Li Yuanxing has already given an order, and it is impossible to change it anymore. So I can only find out the reason in secret.

Seeing that Qiu Xiang had written down his orders, Li Yuanxing said again:

"What is the progress of the renovation of the eight squares in Chang'an City? Did I make something that I asked them to make? How did that tall poplar go, do you have a report? Li Yuanxing asked slowly.

"Your Highness. I'll look it up! ”

Seeing Li Yuanxing, he nodded slightly. Akika trotted out.

After a while, Qiu Xiang came back with a heavy bamboo file box: "Your Highness, there is a progress report on the renovation of the eight squares every ten years, according to Your Highness's instructions." The first installment has been completed. Artisans are transforming waterways. Build gardens and plant trees. What you want, the tall aspen has been made and sealed. ”

Akika said. Li Yuanxing nodded slightly.

"Your Highness, there are a few more related to the transformation of the eight squares. The Chamber of Commerce of the East City has jointly submitted a letter to Jing Zhaoyin three times, requesting the transformation of the East City. Jing Zhaoyin didn't dare to call the shots, so he sent it to the mansion. There is also the fact that Gao Baiyang has applied for the allocation of coins for the renovation of Bafang four times. ”

Hearing the allocation of coins, Li Yuanxing's brows furrowed slightly.

Qiu Xiang only saw Li Yuanxing's expression, and immediately said: "The maid immediately sent someone to reprimand Gao Baiyang, he has used up 140,000 yuan of silver, but the progress is far behind. Fuzhong once counted him for eight squares, and he has exceeded the budget! ”

"No, that's not why the king frowned. If you go to the Chang'an newspaper in person, you will say that this king is going to publish an advertisement, and let the Chang'an newspaper collect money according to the standard. But this king wants a very haode position, so he said that the newly renovated Changxin Garden, Chunxiao Garden, and Changfeng Garden in Bafang will start selling to the outside world tomorrow, and let Gao Baiyang arrange it, and the original housing exchange on the side, spend silver money to buy it, and tell him that this king will go over in person tomorrow. ”

Qiu Xiang wrote down Li Yuanxing's words one by one.

"Let Gao Baiyang put what the king asked to make in the middle of the main hall. The wooden fence next to it was enclosed, and another 300 sergeants were transferred to maintain order. Go ahead! ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Seeing Qiu Xiang come out, a thought rose in Li Yuanxing's heart.

At first, he forcibly suppressed and refused to ship to the Western Regions, but in fact, when he shipped again, the price of silk really increased by at least five times. It's hard to say whether these guys also have this mind, pressing the goods, so that there are no goods in the Western Regions. When we talk about it again, we will have to increase the price significantly.

If that's the case, it doesn't matter.

Businessmen, if they have ten times the profit, they dare to take risks, if they have a hundred times, they dare to risk the danger of killing their heads, and if they have a thousand times the profit, they dare to rebel.

Li Yuanxing didn't know that in fact, Li Huishou of the Brocade Chamber of Commerce was trembling at home, and it was okay to deceive people, but it was the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty who was defrauded, and the risk was more than a hundred times the risk. It's just that if he didn't do this, he wouldn't be able to become the first head of several major brocade chambers of commerce.

At least how to make amends, he hasn't figured it out yet.

The next day, Li Yuanxing went out before dawn, and there was still a curfew in Chang'an, but it was a conditional curfew. Compared with the previous one, it is much more relaxed, and as long as the person who goes out carries the special identity card made by Jing Zhaoyin to prove that he is from Chang'an, he can be appropriately relaxed.

The merchant Gao Baiyang can be said to be the exclusive businessman of Li Yuanxing and Qin Wangzhuang.

Seeing Li Yuanxing's arrival, Gao Baiyang stood respectfully at the door and waited.

"Your Highness, your subordinates are courageous. At present, the renovation of the eight squares has only been carried out less than 20%, Chunxiaoyuan has only completed less than half, and the houses that can live in it are only 30%, and there is nothing in the house. Changxin Garden has just started construction, and it will start selling at this time, and my subordinates think it's not good! ”

Li Yuanxing just shook his head slightly, and said in his heart that the people of Datang were real.

"Today, everything is arranged by this king, and you study hard."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

When Li Yuanxing said this, Gao Baiyang definitely didn't dare to say anything more.

Newspapers don't start to be distributed until about six o'clock in the morning, and they don't appear in the whole of Chang'an until seven o'clock, and after the people see the newspapers, they don't come here until ten o'clock. So Li Yuanxing ordered that the gate could be opened at ten o'clock.

During this period, Li Yuanxing convened Gao Baiyang and his subordinates for a meeting.

Although Gao Baiyang and his subordinates could not understand Li Yuanxing's intentions, they would strictly implement Li Yuanxing's opinions.

At ten o'clock, there were thousands of people standing outside the gate of Chunxiao Garden, and there were hundreds of carriages behind them, full of coins.

Li Yuanxing personally walked to the door.

"The people of Chang'an. This king wants to have a very beautiful, very clean, very gorgeous Chang'an City. Only then did eight squares be bulldozed, and three gardens were ready to be built. However, things have to be done step by step, first of all, the matter of money, buying a house and land is to use coins, but this car and car of coins is extremely inconvenient here! ”

Li Yuanxing personally spoke, and someone there dared to interject.

"Chang'an, there is Yinzhuang. Put the money in the bank, or you like to call it the silver trumpet. How much money money is received in Yinzhuang, how much money will be issued a voucher, this voucher is specially made in this Wang Zhuang, in Chunxiao Garden to buy real estate, you only need to take the voucher to come, no need to a car of coins to come. ”

"By the order of His Highness!"

At that moment, some businessmen arranged for their families to go to Yinzhuang to line up and exchange vouchers.

This is the first step of Li Yuanxing Bank Jihua, check.

However, Datang does not have an Internet, and the initial checks are in duplicate, so they need to be checked again.

"The second thing is to choose a house. The Tang Dynasty treats the world with courtesy, although it is said that businessmen also have ranks, and some people privately buy big houses in remote places, but this is Chang'an. On the wall over there, there are rules set by the Ministry of Etiquette, and everyone chooses a house according to their level! ”

"I will not dare to trespass when I understand!"

Li Yuanxing's identity is here, no one dares to be anxious, and no one dares to make noise.

Li Yuanxing smiled and continued: "One more word about the house, the house is empty. You can choose the hardcover house according to your own preferences, in Chunxiao Garden, as far as the ground is concerned, you can make a couch with wooden planks, or you can use cement to make a flat floor, of course, there are two special approvals from this king. Li Yuanxing said and stretched out his hand.

Marble, and tiles.

The tiles are not very special, but being able to use marble makes many wealthy Tang merchants almost scream.

Think about the snow building, white moire, smooth as a mirror marble ground, how many people are yearning.

"Okay, you can choose according to the etiquette system, if you don't buy it, you can buy it in advance and don't build a haode house, that is, pay a deposit. After it is built, pay for the rest of the coins. Moreover, the king has already issued an order to the money bank, allowing borrowing money to buy a house. Li Yuanxing clapped his hands lightly after saying this.

A middle-aged shopkeeper came out from the side and first gave Li Yuanxing a salute.

"Everyone, it is the third shopkeeper of the Qin Xiaoyuan branch of Datang Qianzhuang. Anyone who is innocent and has a regular income in the family. You can borrow money to buy a house. For example, if you need 300 yuan for a house, you only need to pay 100 yuan, and the remaining 200 yuan can be paid off in 10 or 20 years. The eligibility of the loan will be reviewed by a special person, and the interest varies from 10% to 1/2% per year. If there is a meritorious person in the army, the profit will be reduced by one point! ”

As soon as it becomes a profit a year, it is a pitiful interest rate that is low in Datang.

When Li Yuanxing saw that the people were stunned, he returned to the house with a smile on his face.

When Li Yuanxing entered the door, a voice came from behind him: "His Royal Highness King Qin is benevolent!" ”

Li Yuanxing turned around and waved his hand, and quickly entered the house. Then I picked up the price list of the various rooms and went into the small room on the side.

Open the price list in your hand!

One foot ranges from 40 to 500 yuan.

This price naturally has an accounting standard, and Li Yuanxing set the standard, but he didn't see the corresponding house. That's why I'm going to pick up the price list and take a look at it again, and it's not until tomorrow that the real trading will begin, and there is still a chance to revise it.
