Chapter 100: New Town
Zhang Jing felt the pain of the keyboard warrior at this moment.
You say stock up on food, okay, money.
Let's get rid of something.
In fact, it is understandable to abolish the post station, this thing does waste a lot of food, but on the contrary, for the emperor, it is the easiest institution to strike hard, if it is other institutions, maybe there is a lot of resistance, a group of post soldiers...... What can you call?
Zhang Jing was dizzy throughout the whole process, and he probably took into account his limitations.
In fact, to put it bluntly, without changing the structure of the entire society, or in other words, without raising the productive forces, any so-called suggestions are nothing more than tearing down the east wall and making up the west wall.
Just like that Li Hongzhang, if you are a pastemaker, at least you can keep the house from collapsing, and you want to replace the new beams in this old house, and before the new beams are replaced, maybe the whole house will collapse.
Zhang Jing didn't say anything, and obediently said goodbye.
He decided to improve his self-cultivation, and for the time being, he didn't toss those who didn't have some suggestions, and he really didn't dare to mention them, he was afraid, he was afraid.
Maybe, it also provided Wei Zhongxian's dog thing with a new idea, and then the post station was completed in advance.
The land was quickly allocated, and sure enough, it was worthy of Wei Zhongxian, and the land given was relatively remote, and it was actually in Changping.
The most important thing is that these places are close to the Ming Tombs.
There are many mountains, although there are many rivers, but there are also more checkpoints, huh...... Nothing but good feng shui.
Zhang Jing couldn't cry or laugh, I just want to farm, what do you want feng shui for?
But it's better to have land than nothing, of course Zhang Jingyi smiled.
A few days later, there was another will, according to the promise of the emperor, and Qing Pingbo was honored.
For this reason, it caused a lot of controversy in the imperial court, and many people wrote books one after another, expressing dissatisfaction with Zhang Jingyi's honor every once in a while.
Then people heard that Zhang Jing had offered some magic medicine, and at this time, there was an endless stream of visitors.
Zhang Jing's thinking at the beginning of the year was still very simple, and he was crowned uncle, so the Zhang family set up a three-day flowing water banquet and feasted guests.
But soon, Zhang Jingyi felt that something was wrong.
Why did all of a sudden, his popularity became better, and it wasn't until Fang Jianye's visit that Zhang Jing was empowered.
Fang Jianye came on horseback, hugged him back and forth, found Zhang's house, and pointed with his hand: "This house is too small, poor Yan leaky house, how can you live in Qingpingbo." ”
As soon as Zhang Jing heard that Fang Jianye was coming, he personally came to the middle gate to greet him, and after hearing Fang Jianye's words, he just wanted to say something.
Fang Jianye said again: "The old man has a piece of land near the Bell and Drum Tower, which is not big, only sixty or seventy acres. If you build a new house, if you don't have money, don't worry, just come to me and pay 350,000 taels, money is something outside the body. ”
Zhang Jingyi somehow, when he saw Fang Jianye, he actually had a heart-pounding feeling.
It feels like I'm about to go in some strange direction.
He smiled dryly: "Shibo is kind, but the little nephew has to be disrespectful......"
Fang Jianye got off the horse, listened to Zhang Jingyi's words but was disrespectful, and suddenly rolled his eyes, this is a bit shameless, I politely said that I want to send something, shouldn't you humbly refuse?
You're just being disrespectful?
He suddenly realized that this Zhang Jingyi would not be polite to him.
Fang Jianye smiled and said, "Okay, I'll talk about it in a few days." ”
After a few days of this sentence, Zhang Jing's heart became cold, and her heart slowly settled down, so as not to have some unrealistic ideas.
"It's only been a few days, and I can't imagine that you will really be crowned uncle." Fang Jianye looked Zhang Jingyi up and down, looking like you kid is really not simple.
Zhang Jing said: "Where is it, it's just a little earl, I didn't pay attention to it." ”
Fang Jianye: "......"
Fang Jianye suspected that Zhang Jingyi was swearing.
However, Fang Jianye obviously didn't come for this, the two entered the hall, the guests and hosts sat down, and Fang Jianye said again: "The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it!" These days you are too ostentatious, the more this time, the more cautious you are, many eyes are staring at you. I heard that you offered a pair of magic medicines, and Mrs. Fengsheng used your medicine and brought the dead back to life? ”
Zhang Jing smiled and said, "It's just the right medicine." ”
"Where did you learn your medical skills?"
Zhang Jing said: "I bumped into a strange person......
Fang Jianye waved his hand: "I am familiar with this, either a monk or a Taoist, the kind of dragon who sees the head but does not see the tail, and then says that your bones are strange, you have to teach you what you have learned in your life privately, if you don't learn, he will show you a few unique skills, and finally teach you all this skill, you wake up one day, you will find that this master has drifted away, and there is no trace of it, yes or no?" ”
"Hey, Fang Shibo has also encountered such a thing?"
Fang Jianye said: "If I lie to others, I will say the same." After all, this is a miracle medicine and a secret recipe, how can you easily tell others where it comes from? Just make up a story and fool around, it's just that you make it up a little shoddy, next time you want to make it up, tell the old man in advance, the old man will check you, you young people, you can't grasp the proportion. ”
Zhang Jingyi: "......"
Zhang Jing felt that he had died talking to death, so he stopped talking, and only looked at Fang Liang in a daze boredly.
"Speaking of your medicine ......" Speaking of this, Fang Jianye coughed, then lowered his voice, and it seemed that he was finally about to get to the point: "Virtuous nephew, can you cure certain diseases with this magic medicine?" ”
"What disease?" Zhang Jingyi was puzzled.
Fang Jianye's expression was a little embarrassed, and he hesitated for a while before he said, "Both qi and blood are lost." ”
Zhang Jingyi still didn't understand a little: "This ...... What is it? ”
Fang Jianye squinted: "The man is older......"
Zhang Jing finally understood, and immediately shook his head: "No." ”
Fang Jianye immediately showed a look of regret, and then smiled: "I helped my friend to ask, Cheng Guogong knows, he is old, hey...... Pathetic ......."
Fang Jianye came today, and he didn't mention the matter of marrying a daughter, he seemed to be in a very lost mood, and he left after a while.
At this time, Zhang Jingyi realized why many people came to him to have a relationship, and dared to love these guys for treating him as an old military doctor.
But...... It seems that since ancient times, miracle medicines and secret recipes have always been linked to diseases such as non-lifting and psoriasis, and Zhang Jingyi's mood calmed down slowly.
But anyone who was eager for his miracle medicine, Zhang Jingyi quietly took a small notebook and wrote it down, hmm...... In the future, it can be used for interpersonal relationships.
The first phase of Zhang's shop has been completed.
In fact, the cost of construction, compared with the price of the shop, is really not worth mentioning, the shop is sold, and then a large number of merchants began to settle in.
After all, it costs a lot of money, and it can't be wasted.
And now the flow of people in Qingpingfang is also much higher, and it will definitely not lose money to do business here.
Of course, the most important thing is ...... Now Qingpingfang is almost only Jinyiwei here, and there is no insatiable Dongchang and Shuntianfu and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, which are ordinary splashes and are extinct.
Now, after the completion of the recruit training in the 100 households, they began to divide small flags into teams and began to patrol the streets.
The hundreds of households were already overcrowded, and they were all caught and cleaned up, so that ordinary small people had to take a detour when they saw Qingpingfang.
The Jinyi guards who have been trained by recruits, whether they are physical strength or temperament, are different from ordinary errand soldiers, and now they take a drill every three days, except for those who have to practice, others take turns to patrol the streets.
Zhang Jingyi even thought of a way to make a round.
He had sign-in boxes set up on all streets, and ordered all patrolling teams to show up at the sign-in boxes on time, sign their names, and then move on to the next location.
This has the advantage of preventing patrols from being lazy and ensuring that the streets are patrolled at all times.
In fact, with Lu Xiangsheng here, Zhang Jingyi was not worried at all about the captains being greedy for people's money or extorting merchants' property.
On the one hand, every month, in addition to the salary and silver issued by the imperial court, the hundred households will also take out a sum of money here to give everyone some subsidies.
On the other hand, Zhang Jing severely punished all private individuals who accepted property.
The atmosphere of Qingpingfang has actually taken on a new look.
In a short period of time, more than 200 merchants settled, these merchants not only brought goods, but also brought thousands of people, all of a sudden, cars and horses like dragons, all kinds of shops have everything.
A large number of shops, in fact, bring more people.
After all, the Zhang family relied on cotton shops to attract manpower, but after all, the goods were relatively simple.
Nowadays, all industries are thriving, but everything that can be thought of can be found in Qingpingfang, which makes many residents around them willing to come here.
Before the merchants settled in, Zhang Jingyi also ordered people to clean up the streets and alleys, paved all the streets with small stones, and then paved with lime mud, and after it dried, the ancient cement road was paved.
Of course, this thing...... It's primitive.
However, at this time, there were no large-load carriages and horses, and there was no major problem in dealing with pedestrians and ordinary carriages.
The advantage of this is that at least on rainy days, the roads will not be muddy and difficult to walk.
It is easy to clean, too.
For hygiene, Zhang Jingyi attaches great importance to it.
In fact, after hundreds of years, it is inevitable that the capital will hide dirt and dirt, a large amount of garbage cannot be disposed of, the water source is polluted, and the sanitary conditions are good if the area where the rich are located, but once it reaches the neighborhood where ordinary people live, it will be dirty.
Zhang Jingyi recruited alley chiefs in each street and asked them to deal with the cleaning of the streets and the disposal of garbage, of course...... It is impossible to expect them to work as soon as they are paid, so ...... An effective incentive must be developed.
