Chapter 253: Recognition
There is no noise of gongs and drums, no firecrackers, and no fireworks woven by spells.
On both sides of the bluestone road between Lanbian Market Town and Lanbian Station, there will be a city guard guarding every other zhang, and this road is also the cleanest road around Lanbian Market Town. But at this time, in the middle of the road, hundreds of people walked towards the market town, talking and laughing. The first three are Chu Zheng, Chu Junsheng and Liang Cheng.
"The Lanbian County of the capital is really ......," Liang Cheng sighed, but he couldn't describe his feelings for a while.
Not only Liang Cheng was like this, but also the scribes and their families behind him also didn't know how to describe their feelings.
Before they came, they thought it was a barren place, but when they came here, they found that it was picturesque. The station is like a paradise, but the market town next to the station is prosperous and noisy.
Walking on the road three feet wide, the bluestone under the feet is neat but not smooth, the surrounding two rows of trees are shady, under the trees and further away are full of blooming flowers and green grass, people can feel the fresh breath when walking on the bluestone road. And the climate here is even more pleasant.
It was also the first time that Chu Zheng carefully felt the scenery of the area under his control. Hearing this, he nodded with a smile and said: "Because of the topography here, the four seasons are like spring, and the climate is pleasant, without the cold of winter and the heat of summer. The climate is neither dry nor wet. It is a picturesque place with lush vegetation, and at the same time there are mountains, and the Henan Plain is surrounded by towering mountains and primeval jungles, where there are countless products. There is water here, and next to it is the abundant Lancang River. There are tens of millions of acres of fertile land here, and crops are grown here twice and three times a year, and tens of millions of acres of land are enough to feed five million people. It can be said that this place has all the advantages, but the people of the Xiyue tribe were not good at planting before, and the Xiyue tribe and the Great Zhou were hostile relations, so it has not developed here. Since I occupied this place, Junsheng has invested a lot of energy, financial and material resources to renovate this place. I don't know these very well, Junsheng introduced. β
Of course, Chu Zheng knew everything about the situation, but Chu Junsheng was really hard in this. Now that most of the area in Lanbian County has been built, this sense of accomplishment should also be enjoyed by Chu Junsheng.
"It's still all forward-looking. Chu Junsheng bowed with a smile, "As Dutong said, this place has all the advantages, but it has not been developed and utilized. So far, we have invested a million gold coins, and nearly 10,000 monks have participated in the construction. There are now four bluestone roads like the one underfoot, which are thousands of miles long. In the next six months, it will increase to six, with a total mileage of 3,000 miles. In addition, there are three zhang wide bluestone roads, which have now been built five with a total mileage of 800 miles, and will be built in the next year with a total mileage of 30 miles. β
"It's so long!"
"It's all this kind of quality standard?"
Liang Cheng looked surprised, and the scribes behind him were even more shocked at the moment. They have seen a lot of bluestone roads, but the bluestone roads here are obviously a little different from the bluestone roads they have seen before, at least the drainage facilities on both sides of the road and the solidity of the roadbed have opened their eyes, and some of them have thought of improving this matter by borrowing the means of monks.
"It's just a year's plan. Chu Junsheng nodded, "As for the future planning, Lord Liang still needs to make overall arrangements, after all, I am a military advisor, and it is our duty to fight, expand our territory, and protect the safety of the inhabitants of the territory." β
Liang Cheng only felt that his heart was surging, a lot of financial and material resources were invested, and even monks were invested in the construction, he could fully show his strength and implement the ideas in his mind, and turn the ideas in his mind into reality.
Liang Cheng was like this, and the other scribes were even more excited and their faces flushed. They already had no worries about food and clothing in their hometown, and the main reason for coming here was to display their ambitions, and Chu Zheng provided them with superior conditions far beyond their imagination, which made them eager to devote themselves to the realization of their ideals now.
"This kind of road is far from being built as you think. Chu Junsheng pointed to the trees on the side of the road, "It takes a lot of time for these trees to be transplanted by ordinary people, and their growth is difficult to guarantee. But as a monk, you can do it easily. β
"Roads are just one of the foundations, the other is the dwellings. Each dwelling is planned and built in a unified manner, and everyone, including the ordinary people who come here to farm, will get a dwelling, and everyone's dwelling is a separate courtyard. The architecture of each residence and courtyard is the latest and the most chic. Every 100 families form a village, there is either a river next to the village, a stream at the main gate, or a mountain spring, and there is also a vast fertile land next to each village, and the distance between the villages is different, the short dozens of miles, the long hundred miles, but each village will also be connected by the bluestone road. β
"Isn't the village too small? and too sparse. A man behind him asked cautiously, slightly puzzled.
Chu Zheng nodded approvingly and said, "Being able to ask this question shows that you are attentive." However, the practical difficulty is that there are less than 80,000 people in Lanbian County, and the land is vast and sparsely populated. Secondly, these villages were also the prototype of market towns, and gradually developed into market towns with villages as the center. Of course, some places can also directly establish market towns in the future, and these will be Liang Cheng's affairs in the future. Again, and most importantly, there is the most important point. Maybe people don't pay attention to this information. Whether it is the Western Yue tribe or the Northwest Wilderness, the proportion of their monks in ordinary people is much higher than that of the Great Zhou, and even several times higher. It's not because Da Zhou has fewer resources than them, or because Da Zhou's sect doesn't absorb ordinary people, but because the population is too dense, the aura of heaven and earth absorbed from pregnancy to child growth is diluted. Everyone grew up near Yujing City, but what everyone didn't know was that whether it was the Four Great Gates or the Thirty-sixth Family, as long as the woman in the clan was pregnant, she would be sent to another courtyard or a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. Some are even born and raised in places full of aura until they are five or six years old. β
"I see. β
"I always thought that the people of the Four Great Gates and the Thirty-six Families were all talents piled up with wealth, and it turned out that there were still these exquisiteness. β
"It's still all about the long term. β
"This is for everyone's future and for our future generations. β
In the midst of everyone's joy and admiration, Chu Zheng said: "The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the population density is low, and in Daqin, it is just to change your body and provide protection for your health. In Daqin, as long as the woman in the family is pregnant, she can apply to live in a place with abundant spiritual energy that has been developed separately. Of course, this is just my casual remark, and the specific implementation and implementation rules have to be formulated by Liang Cheng. In a word, in my jurisdiction, I want people to live the happiest life, and I also want them to have a brighter future for themselves and their descendants, and I am not short of gold coins and spirit stones. If I could reach this level just by paying a few more spirit stones and gold coins, I would wake up laughing from sleep. β
"Liang Cheng will definitely do his best to achieve the wish of unification!"
"We will do our best!"
Whether it was Liang Cheng or the other scribes, they came here with a desire to show their ambition and the ideal of making the area under their jurisdiction rich and healthy through their own efforts, because this was the sense of accomplishment they needed. And Chu Zheng had exactly the same idea as them, and he didn't just want to be rich like the local parents and the gate lord family. Chu Zheng's words are ordinary, but this is a grand wish, which not only does not contradict the sense of achievement and honor they need, but can be said to be completely consistent. In the minds of these scribes, their devotion to Lan Bien was simply the wisest choice in this life, and all the obstacles that hindered them from realizing their ambitions in front of them were now completely gone, and they only needed to devote themselves to fulfilling their wishes without distraction.
Chu Zheng was also very happy when he saw everyone's expressions, just like outside the west gate of Yujing City, that was to arrange He Jin's impassioned rhetoric, although it had the intention of making Jian Yuanzong Chen Rui lower his guard, but more importantly, it was to exclude some people who did not accept his point of view. Now the more than 80 scribes behind him not only accepted his views, but also agreed with them very much, and at the same time showed the enterprising spirit of these people. Aggressiveness is very important, and it is especially important for a start-up like him. Don't underestimate the small number of people, there are only more than 80 of these scribes, the scribes themselves are a circle, the recognition of these more than 80 people means the recognition of some people in this circle, which means that through the attraction and attraction of these more than 80 people, there will be a steady stream of scribes coming to Lanbian County.
Everyone came to the outside of the market town with laughter and laughter, and suddenly the hearts of these scribes became more prosperous.
Clean, orderly, lively and noisy, this is what everyone thinks the market town market looks like, and Lanbian market town is exactly what they think it is.
The market town as a whole is in a circle, and the streets are bluestone roads four feet wide, and the trees on both sides of the road are planted with flowers of various colors. This is followed by the antique two-storey shops with uniformly decorated shop fronts, each with a huge white jade banner on top of it, and the name of each shop on the white jade banner exudes a misty light. What is even more eye-opening is that although the decoration style of the faΓ§ade is unified, it has its own characteristics, especially the style of the store faΓ§ade on different streets is very different. Another thing they never expected was that the various horse-drawn carriages entering the market town were diverted, and the entire business area of the market town was only pedestrians.
"There are 300 merchants in this market town. Among them, there are 200 companies that are engaged in the buying and selling of cultivation materials on a full-time basis, 50 that deal in the things needed by ordinary people in addition to cultivation materials, and another 50 that deal in inns, restaurants, food, food, and other goods for ordinary people's clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Today is a special day, the carriages are only diverted, and after tomorrow all carriages can only be parked in the dock area on the south side of the market town and near a warehouse on the north side. β
Chu Zheng's eyes shone brightly and he said loudly: "Lanbian Market Town is a place where the Great Zhou, Xiyue, and Northwest parties live in harmony, and the characteristic products of the three parties will also be gathered here. This is the best market in the world, the largest market, the most complete market, the most beautiful market, and after all, it is the most prosperous market in 20 years!"
