Chapter 92 Sanitation Department
She covered her mouth and chuckled: "He is upright but not pedantic, and he is also very smart, otherwise I would not have given him a class alone, if the prince can let him be promoted this time, and I have a relationship with him, he will vote for the prince." ”
Suddenly, she straightened her face and said in an old-fashioned manner: "If he dares not to throw himself into you, he will be expelled from the division as a teacher." ”
Yan Shi's shelf was put down, and she laughed happily first.
"Then I'll rely on you to help me do something! There is Mr. Law. Xia Yiyu wanted to tease her again when he saw her smiling, and respectfully saluted her.
Xie Yufei was smiling happily and was respectfully saluted by him, but he didn't smile, and glared at him with a smile on his lips.
All afternoon. Xia Yiyu took Xie Yufei and the others to walk through the inner and outer cities of Chang'an. It wasn't until it was dark that the two of them returned home.
"Yu Fei, drink tea!"
Xia Yiyu brought her a cup of tea made by herself, she has a habit of drinking tea after meals, saying that it can help eliminate food and lose weight. Xia Yiyu doesn't understand, is there still meat to lose on her slender body?
Xie Yufei showed a sweet smile: "Thank you, Lord Wang!" ”
This tea was specially made by her Xizhu, and she is not used to drinking the tea soup in this era.
She took the tea but didn't drink it, her eyes stared straight ahead in a daze.
Xia Yiyu frowned and said, "Yu Fei, don't like the tea I made?" ”
Xie Yufei turned his head and smiled at him: "No, I think of something!" ”
He asked curiously, "What do you think?" ”
"Lord Wang, in the afternoon we walked all over the inner city and the outer city, and the earthquake shook the underground water ditches covered in each square, and it would flow to the cracks, and the whole square was smoked with a foul smell, and many people were everywhere..., as well as the cow and horse dung in the past, and there was a bad smell everywhere."
"What do you think?" Xia Yiyu knew that she would not mention it for no reason, after all, these were old diseases.
"I thought that I could take advantage of the opportunity to repair the underground ditches and fill the cracks in the shops, and build a few separate pits for men and women in the remote places of each street in each square, so as to seal them so that the people living around them would not have any objections.
In addition, 10-year-old trees were planted every 20 steps along the street and river, and two large barrels with lids were placed next to the trees to hold the filth discarded by the people.
It is better to set up a sanitation station, recruit some sanitation workers to pay higher, and the sanitation subordinates are responsible for cleaning the pits every day, transporting filth barrels out of the city, supervising the cleanliness of the streets, and stipulating that the people will be punished for one month if they discard the filth everywhere; Those who come out of the water are punished with two months of sanitation and forced labor, and the chief of the street supervision department is not forbidden, and he is guilty of the same crime. After these things are implemented, the capital will definitely have a new look, and everything will be clean and tidy, which is a major matter closely related to the face and people's livelihood in the imperial court. ”
Xie Yufei was embarrassed, she told the sanitation department of later generations thousands of years in advance.
After hearing this, Xia Yiyu pondered for a while, and said: "If this matter is successful, it will be a great merit, and the cost of silver taels will not be too much, and my father will definitely agree."
The sewer ditch was damaged by the earthquake and can be rebuilt after a long time, the trees do not cost money, and the extra budget is wages, the construction of thatched pits, the purchase of barrels, and the land occupied by the powerful at the end of the street can be recovered, and the original houses can be repaired to form sanitation stations. I wrote that I put it all under the street reconstruction. ”
Xie Yufei's eyebrows jumped, and he asked, "What did you say, Lord Wang?" ”
Xia Yiyu was puzzled, "I said a lot of words, which sentence are you referring to?" ”
"The prince said that the land at the end of the street was recovered? Can you elaborate on that? Xie Yufei asked.
Xia Yiyu explained: "Many streets and streets will vacate large areas for parking carriages and horses, and as a result, they are occupied by dignitaries and built into warehouses and workshops, and these ownerless lands are all owned by the imperial court.
In this earthquake, these random warehouses and workshops have not carried the power of the earthquake, and they have collapsed and damaged, and they can all take the opportunity to recover and use them to form a sanitation station. ”
When Xie Yufei was patrolling the streets in the afternoon, he saw many simple warehouses and workshops, and those workshops and warehouses were all adjacent to the shops.
There are also many low-rise houses that have collapsed on the street, and the land can also be bought back from the people to rebuild the shops, if it is in the later generations, not to mention the street area, it is across the distance to take advantage of the dense flow of people to build shops, which if in the later generations those real estate developers would have already shot.
If you build a shop, you can sell it, and you don't have to worry about not being able to sell it at all. Chang'an City is densely populated, with many people and little land, and the land price of Chang'an is expensive.
Xie Yufei discovered a business opportunity and made a small fortune, and then found a silver mountain, but unfortunately it was not hers.
Xie Yufei was sullen and said: "Lord, these lands belong to the imperial court, that is, the emperor's, the prince asked the emperor to take back the land, take out a loan from the royal money village to buy the land to rebuild the shop, and then sell it." No matter how much you invest, it won't be wasted, these are all shop lots where every inch of land is valuable. ”
"Will my father be willing?" Xia Yiyu asked.
Xie Yufei pursed his lips and said, "It depends on how well you can convince the emperor that you can make your proposal a success, and I don't know the emperor as well as you." ”
Are you a staff member? Asked as soon as he opened his mouth, Xia Yiyu smiled, but he couldn't let her underestimate it, and he really had to prove his ability, so he was really thinking about it.
People will sell their land only if it is difficult to make a living, and they will often be looked down upon. It's a shame to ask my father to sell his things.
Tell my father that those lands are also occupied by others, so why don't you benefit yourself? The Emperor would rather give it to them than sell it.
Sold it for money to his father's Taoist temple?
Building houses for the people affected by the disaster?
Enriching the Father's Inner Treasury?
None of this is right...
……
"Clan?" Xia Yiyu muttered to himself.
Xia Yiyu said seriously: "This excuse is reliable, the emperor's things can also be said to be royal things, and the money obtained from selling his own things will be distributed to the royal family, which can be pulled away." ”
Xia Yiyu smiled and said: "Tell my father that the silver obtained is used for the expenses of the clan, and the father is definitely willing, the clan can be an official and do business, but since my father ascended the throne, there are no clan officials who can enter the center, and only a few outstanding people can be officials, and those who have achieved business are also the few who have not been related to my father for three generations, and most of them only rely on receiving silver to survive."
But the population of the clan is expanding day by day, the children of the clan are all over Chang'an, and a sneeze can be sprayed on the face of a clan, and the money and food used by the court to support and maintain the clan every year are huge expenditures, which makes the court miserable, and the treasury sometimes can't take out the silver, and often arrears, so that the children of the clan complain. ”
Xie Yufei praised: "The prince has a good idea, this should be the only reason that can move the emperor, and the prince's proposal has been known to the clan relatives, maybe there will be many people who are grateful for the prince's kindness and can win over a group of clans who are officials, because even if this matter does not benefit them, it also benefits their immediate family."
Now what the prince has to do is to find out how much land has been occupied, and then report to the emperor. It's getting late, so go back early! ”
Xia Yiyu's face remained unswerving, and he stood up and left silently...
Xie Yufei was a little stunned when he saw him like this, what's wrong?
