Chapter 267: Transactions and Roads

If the distance is close, Fan Jingjing will send people to set up factories in the local area, make canning factories, collect these things, sell them in the city, and even sell them locally, if the countryside can have the ability to consume.

In winter, when they are not even hunting, there is meat and vegetables to eat, which is very attractive to people, especially those who grow in temperate regions, not to mention that Fan Jingjing's canned food is so delicious, but the premise of attraction is that they have money.

Although they know that this food is delicious, when there is no money in hand, it is a person who will endure it, because it is a matter of life.

The biggest problem of doing business in Datang is that the consumption market is very far away from the place of production.

The distance between the fields of consumption is too far, and the vast rural areas have almost no consumption power, and they live a self-sufficient life.

If they need to have contact with the outside world, they send grain to the government, but most of these things are arranged by the local gentry or large landowners, unless there is no rich man in their village, which is not uncommon, but generally rare.

There are some advantages to the whole village being poor together, that is, no one oppresses them, and everyone's mental strength can be put together, but everyone can eat six or seven percent full.

But for business, it is difficult to form large-scale production, but then again, there is less competition in business, after all, they are all small businesses, and it is not easy to do big business, it depends on your personal means.

Although there are many small workshops under Fan Jingjing, the productivity of being able to have hundreds of pieces a day is already very remarkable. But for the Datang people, the business that Fan Jingjing is doing is already a big business.

However, Fan Jingjing did not have the consciousness to become a big businessman.

In her mind, there are hundreds of pieces growing a day, so what kind of big businessman can produce and supply the whole Datang products in a day, this is called a big businessman, but it is very difficult to supply the whole Datang goods.

The biggest problem is not production, but transportation.

Datang's labor is very cheap to say. Except for the workers of the Fan family's estate.

If he just wants to sell the goods to Chang'an, then naturally there is no problem, the traffic problem has been solved by him, but if he wants to solve the traffic problem of the entire Datang, even Fan Jingjing must have a headache.

Only the power of the state can solve the affairs within the scope of Datang, not only the problem of money, but also the problem of rights.

The state does not want a good person on a national scale.

But the state is short of money, and it can't even pay salaries, and often it is in arrears, so that these people can draw some money from other places.

This is not an unacceptable thing for the emperor, as long as the people can live.

With the people, the emperor can find people to help him do things, and only then can he have the money to support people to help him do things.

However, when she encountered traffic problems every time she did something, Fan Jingjing really began to pay attention to it, and if she didn't solve the traffic problem, her business would not be good.

She did not position herself as a nobleman, but as a businessman.

In this era, the status of businessmen is very low due to the lack of protection of laws and imperial power, but Fan Jingjing has status, and it is different to do business again, and no one dares to bully her.

Although she can do better than others, but it is much more depressing to do, if you want to do business, you must build roads, if you want to build roads, you must have money, if you want to be rich, you must make money, but if you want to make money, you must build roads, which is a troublesome thing.

In the feudal era, the road construction is basically to ask the local gentry to be willing to pay for you to repair, so generally will not repair the place outside the street, so there are a few sections of the road outside the city that can be successfully repaired, all of which are still the roads left by the Qin Dynasty in the past.

Fan Jingjing felt that she had to build the road. It is also necessary to use the road construction to make money, so that there is more money to continue to build the road. What's the best money to make? In fact, it is real estate.

If you want to engage in real estate after the road is repaired, it will actually be easier.

Not to mention the construction of roads at this time. There are fewer heavy vehicles. Simple roads can be built so that people can start to get started. More importantly, let the imperial court see the importance of road construction.

But Fan Jingjing frowned again.

In this era, it was free for the people to do works for the imperial court.

She made the court see the importance of road construction, for the people, it was a greater suffering, and many people would die, because for the high-ranking officials of the court, they did not regard human life as human life at all.

To the high-ranking officials of the imperial court, the local people were like cattle and sheep grazing.

The court only thought that it could get some milk, meat, and fur from the cattle and sheep.

If some people don't care to them, only if there are too many for them to receive benefits, they will really pay attention to the people.

The focus is not on whether the people are well fed and clothed, but whether they have output.

For the entire court officials, the output of the people is very important, and it is also an important capital for them to deal with the emperor.

If there is no money for the emperor, the emperor will naturally not let the court officials have a good life.

However, Fan Jingjing also knows that her head is not creative, especially when it comes to business.

Business matters should make people in Datang think about how to make the road a commodity that can make money and everyone will want to buy.

And Fan Jingjing must buy the land on both sides of the road to develop the road, at least, Fan Jingjing thinks so.

She is a selfish little woman.

That is to say, she must now expand her efforts to make money, fortunately, the profits are getting bigger and bigger, maybe only five percent before, but now it can reach fifty percent, because now the products he produces and manufacture are more and more valuable to the people of Datang, and she also dares to sell expensive because the high-end goods she produces now are only rich and can afford to use them.

Of course, the interior of the Fan family manor is also used.

For the rich, using cheap things is a slap in the face, they have a lot of money left, or they have a lot of food leftover, and if you can exchange your things for food, they are willing to take out the money, or take out the money stored in their warehouses and use it, which is also a good business for them.

But rich people actually want to make more money, otherwise they will desperately buy land.

In their opinion, the income from buying land for tenant farming is also good.

In fact, there are no investment projects in Datang.

There are very few projects that can be operated, and I don't know how there are millions of industries in the era of science and technology, each industry seems to be as long as a pat on the head, so that people can try it, and if the business attempt fails, people will find a way to jump up again.

In fact, rich people are not afraid of failure, there is always a kind of success when these attempts fail, as long as there is a success, they can make a lot of money.

It seems that the court doesn't have much money, but a lot of land, because the land in the world is considered to be the court, and if you want to use it, you have to pay taxes with the court, but at this time, the court doesn't pay too much attention to wasteland.

But I don't pay attention to it because no one mentions it.

For roads to be attractive, they must be done together with transportation.

If there are rails, the transport capacity will be greatly increased, as the loss of friction will also be reduced.

Even if the track is transported by people, it is much better than pulling it on the ground.

"Forget it, if you want to build it, you should be in your own territory, show it to others, if others can see the benefits of these things, they will naturally imitate and learn, and it is too difficult to rely on yourself for everything.

What's more, my land is flat for 10%, and 10% can live for a lot of people, and it is not too far from the environment where you can play, what is a good place?

It's a place where people gather.

And the first thing to put the traffic in order is to form a good place. ”

Fan Jingjing knows that for the people, many traffic nodes will form a residential area, so the real good place has actually been occupied by others, there may only be one or two households, but they occupy this space, if the population is small, he can still buy the land, if the population is a little larger, it is very difficult to take it down, and the construction that Fan Jingjing wants to do is almost completely construction can not be allowed. There are unregulated factors.

Man-made facilities, however, can create new settlements.

For example, the intersection of traffic.

In the plains, it will not be too difficult to form new junctions.

First control her territory, and then find a way to buy more places to develop, as long as she builds more infrastructure in these places, I believe that there will be a lot of people who want to buy, especially in places where the traffic can be an hour away from Chang'an.

In other words, she had to buy the wasteland outside the fiefdom, or the farmland that had been developed.

Fortunately, this place is close to the mountains, and there are not too many settlements.

It can also be developed within an hour of other cities.

Although it seems that there are still a lot of vacant land in Chang'an, Fan Jingjing knows that when Li Shimin becomes Tiankehan, Chang'an will be filled with people from all over the world.

Only in this way, it is too inconvenient for the little Chang'an to do business, outside the city, Fan Jingjing knows that in fact, after that, Chang'an does not have to worry about the problem of attacking at all.

can be stable for a long time, even if others want to attack, Fan Jingjing can organize enough strength by himself, but they have no way to take the Datang standard knives and guns, maybe Fan Jingjing should make new weapons for them.

The weapons that Fan Jingjing knew were much more powerful than them.

But Fan Jingjing quickly made a bitter face, although she knew a lot of weapons, but none of them were simple to make, and they needed to be developed for a long time, at least Fan Jingjing was a liberal arts student, not a science student, although their agricultural college was divided into science, but he didn't know much about too many physical and chemical changes.

If it is a science student who travels to Datang, it is estimated that there are many projects that can be developed, but the sky of Datang will probably not be so difficult, they are good at pollution.

Could it be that her crossing is to ensure that the genes of this era can be preserved?

But Fan Jingjing can't take all the lives to try it, but he thought about it, it's really possible, because the range that the condensate takes care of is the range of the fief that Fan Jingjing gets, which seems to allow creatures with different climates and environments to survive in it, and the Qinling Mountains she won can be said to have a lot of animals to survive in it, and she just needs to find some species that have disappeared in later generations and send them to his mountain, but Fan Jingjing feels also very headache, How many lives can she feed in her lifetime?

You can find food by sending wild animals to the mountains, but you still have to have enough trees to survive to complete the mission, right?

Moreover, animals from afar, half a life will be removed when they are transported.

In fact, the water polo has not given him much hint so far, or not at all.

However, he knows that if the ability of the water polo is to increase, it is actually necessary to do the water polo, and the things that he wants to do, every time the water polo's ability will expand, just like when he gets the emperor's reward and has a fief, and the fief is quite large, the water polo will automatically identify the fief as his sphere of influence, and the climate and environment in this place have changed a lot.

In fact, during the Xiaoice River period, the environment in Guanzhong has slowly deteriorated, many meteorological disasters have been produced in this place, and the food in this place often has to be sent from the south, fortunately, the Sui Dynasty Emperor has built the Grand Canal, the Tang Dynasty just inherited this heritage, can as long as it is repaired, it can be sent food from the south, otherwise Chang'an, a big city, will not be able to maintain the survival of so many people.

It's not that there is no food in other places, but that food is very difficult to deliver, and often when the food reaches the people in this place, people have already eaten nine-tenths of it, leaving only one-tenth, and in such a situation, the price of food naturally has to rise.

However, the price of food is high, and ordinary people cannot afford to eat, so the population of this place is limited, but the population of this place is not only ordinary permanent residents, but also a very large number of soldiers, and when a large number of troops gather in this place, they must also prepare food for them, as well as all kinds of food that can make food taste.

Productivity in the Kanchu region is declining.

Fan Jingjing has increased the productivity of the Guanzhong area, which is actually a bad thing for people in other places, because they lack the opportunity to send goods to Guanzhong.

In fact, most of the grain is the tax grain of the imperial court, and most of the time these tax grains are eaten by the transporters in the process of transportation, and a small part of the tax grain can be given to the wages of hundreds of officials.

Officials can choose whether to convert their tax grain into money, and if they want to convert it into money, they will send it to sell outside, and then take the money from the sale to the officials.

Whether the sale price is high or low depends on what kind of price they are selling when they sell, and in most cases, because the imperial court sells more money, the price is relatively low.

Most of the officials will leave enough food and sell the rest in exchange for some money to stay in Chang'an for consumption.
