Chapter 55: Baby Pimple, Profiteer, Beautiful Man
Ever since I was noncommittal about Yanyu's proposal, Yanyu has taken even more care of me. Whenever I have a headache and brain fever, Yan Yu is anxious like an ant on a hot pot, occasionally I quarrel with Lei Nian, Yan Yu stares at Lei Nian with a black face, and when I chat with Lei Nian on behalf of Xuanhu in private, Lei Nian also asks me if he has offended Yan Yu somewhere, so that I don't know how to answer.
Soon, Yanyu's concern extended to the amount of time I had with Twilight Changyan every day, and Yanyu wanted me to rest for a while every half hour, so I had to talk about it to increase the half-hour to an hour. Du Changyan, Yu Xianting, Qiao Yun, these loyal ministers are all very upright tempers, sometimes it is inevitable to fight for a few words, whenever their words are a little intense, the words will be the fan in the hand "swish" unfolded. Who are the people in the field of speech? Shangping Mountain Killing God, it is a ruthless character that even Qiao Yun, the general in charge of the armor soldiers, is afraid of, as long as Yan Yu is so frightened, the people below immediately restrain their emotions, and no matter how urgent things are, they will change to say it slowly.
Although I didn't think it would be a way to do this for a long time, I slowly found that this trick was quite effective, so I went from the domain of words.
The people who originally lived in the Xuancang border area, when they saw the "Xuan" banner made for me by Yanyu, they all came to bow down one after another, and after worshipping, they dragged their families and mouths to follow to the imperial city.
Twilight Changyan said that Xuancang is not a country with a large population, coupled with the disaster of ten years, the number of people is now more than half of what was ten years ago, even if all the people gather, the imperial city cannot be settled, and the radius of a hundred miles outside the imperial city is about the same.
I asked Twilight Changyan, don't these people want their farmland and homes?
Twilight Changyan said that after the night ghost soldiers stationed in Xuancang, there are often night ghost soldiers sneaking at night to do some looting, and the night ghost soldiers are mostly stationed in the habitable places where the villages gather, in order to avoid the scourge of the night ghost soldiers, the people of the night are either into the night secluded territory, or in the desolate and remote place of the Xuan Cang. The land is not suitable for cultivation in the desolate places, and if it is sown in the spring, it will not be enough to eat in the autumn for a year, and the people will feed themselves in the grain and weeds and even soil.
I was always caught in the righteousness of the army and the people, looking at the cars and horses all around, I couldn't see how hard the life was in the farther places, but it could also be seen from the yellow and thin faces of the people, but the people who were with me in the night at the beginning looked better.
Maybe it's because the people who have followed all the way can have food supplies and seem to be doing better, and the people in Xuancang also have confidence and want to go to the imperial city with them, hoping to have a new emperor to lead them to live a better life.
Since I couldn't stop, I didn't get to the position of a night garrison, so I asked Twilight Changyan to take Lei Du's waist card and ask the garrison generals not to harm the people of Xuancang again, hoping that this method would have some effect.
What I didn't expect was that in this ancient time and space that can be compared with the Three Kingdoms period, there are still many businessmen with great investment vision who actually aimed at my Daxuancang Reconstruction Division, and rushed to find us, saying that they were willing to fund me to revive Xuancang.
I asked Twilight Changyan to understand the situation one by one, and the other party naturally wouldn't ask for anything in return like Yanyu. Half of these merchants came from Di Heng, and the other half were mixed with most of the Night Ghost people, and there were also a small number of Xuancang people.
Twilight Changyan compiled a list for me, including their business scope, capital contribution, and expected return content and cycle.
There are no treacherous businessmen, saying that they are here to help, but they have any ideas, only the Xuancang businessmen don't know whether they are afraid or really loyal, they keep saying that they do not ask for anything in return, and they are willing to take the Yanjia family as an example and contribute their strength to the great cause of restoring the country.
I ticked some people in the list to explain that Twilight Changyan was classified according to them, and I would invite them to the Xuancang Palace in batches in the future, and I would talk to them about these businesses again.
Yan Yu didn't understand very much, and even asked me: "Could it be that the Yan family's property is about to run out?" ”
I hurriedly reassured me and said, "Brother Yan misunderstood. Yan's family is rich and rivals the country, but no matter how much your family property is, there is an upper limit, and I asked these people to come to me, but I have to find a way to turn the limited into the infinite. ”
"When it comes to business, if you want to do it, I'll help you pawn, do you still need to bother to do it yourself?" Although Yan Yu smiled, his tone was a little reproachful.
That's right, I forgot that the wealth of this rich country didn't fall from the sky, since he didn't want me to work hard, I followed him, and said: "Okay~ The list is used up, I'll let him give it to you, if you have other ideas after reading it, you can change it again, I just ask." ”
Yan Yu then changed to a relaxed smile, "Hu'er, tell me how much you want to earn back in the first year." ”
It's so direct, I sneered, "There is no definite amount yet, but I don't want only the Xuancang Palace to make money, I want the people of Xuancang to be able to eat and wear." If one year is not enough, two years is fine. ”
"One year is enough. I will definitely let the people in the Xuancang Imperial City and a radius of 100 miles outside the city have no worries about food and clothing. In addition, since you intend to let the people live around the imperial city, I will build another circle of walls a hundred miles outside the imperial city, but I am afraid that this effort will take more money, and it will be limited to three years, how about it? ”
"Brother Yan, the people haven't eaten enough, how can they have the strength to repair the city wall?"
Yan Yu raised his eyebrows, "Aren't there many emperors in your list who are good at building?" ”
"Hey, Brother Yan, you need to spend money to invite it!"
"Hey, Hu'er, you should be a brother who can't see through your mind? Are you really going to spend gold and silver to ask for it? ”
I stuck out my tongue, and I was afraid that this speech domain was about to become a roundworm in my stomach.
Yanyu no longer teased me, and simply said his thoughts, "If Xuancang wants to restore the country, it will be full of opportunities for merchants, and there will be frequent merchants and merchants, and there will be more times in and out of the city gate. The city gate is four sides in the southeast and northwest of the imperial city, the city wall is set up in one hundred miles outside the city and then eight city gates, outside the Xuancang people, the merchants of other countries are charged a certain percentage of the gate fee according to the goods, if there is no goods, the quota is charged, and the merchants who build the city gate will take a cut from it, and the number of years can be determined according to the corresponding quality, length, height and height of the wall. ”
Wow, I only thought about collecting tolls, and I didn't think about the problem behind this at all, if it is according to the words, then the builders who built the city wall will definitely try their best to build the city wall more solidly, don't we even save the overseer?
is worthy of being the young master of the Yan family, this business mind is really not ordinary.
It was probably because I looked at him with too much respect and worship, Yan Yuben stood with his head held high with confidence, and when I saw it, he raised his hand and coughed dryly, and said with a red face: "Hu'er, when I talk about this way of doing business for my brother, I can't help it, and it makes you laugh." ”
I jumped up and hugged Yan Yu's neck, "Brother Yan, you are really a baby pimple given to me by God!" I like you too late, how can I make fun of you! ”
Yan Yu hurriedly hugged me firmly and reproached: "You are pregnant, you should not jump up and down, what should I do if you have fetal gas?" Alas......"
