Chapter 766: Poor

With the growth of the Qin State, the problem of Chang'an's old and broken children became more and more prominent.

When it rains or snows, the inside of the city becomes muddy, and the water outside the city often reaches the base of the city walls.

Like the Yellow River, the Wei River often sways from side to side, and there is a risk of flooding Chang'an at every turn.

It's been almost as long as Xindu has been built.

The continuous supply of slaves of all kinds made the construction period much faster.

Especially during the slack period, the people in the vicinity will rush to do "odd jobs", with high enthusiasm, no wages, just three meals a day.

This also led to an acceleration of the progress of the project.

Suo Jing has long been aware of the problems of Xindu, so in the past two years, he has focused on Xindu.

Ji Kang was in charge of design and engineering, and Suo Jing was in charge of rear dispatch.

Coupled with the various professionals from the Central Plains, Jiangdong, and Shuzhong, Xindu is particularly fast.

Yang Zheng took Wei Qian and Yang Xu to inspect, and the outline of the new capital was basically completed.

The overall layout is rectangular, divided into three parts: Guocheng, Gongcheng and Imperial City, it is 16 miles long from east to west, 12 miles wide from north to south, there are three city gates on each side, and 12 city gates correspond to six main streets.

The city wall is two and a half feet high, and it still adopts the method of rammed earth, which is extremely strong.

The defense is also a top-notch existence, and every city gate has built an urn city, and there are arrow towers, horse faces, and so on on each city wall

Ji Kang, as the top of the celebrity and art world, of course, did not allow the capital to build the Taitu, and pasted blue bricks on both sides of the city wall to maintain the beauty.

The moat is also according to the largest specifications, leading to the water system of the water, the water of the water, the water of the Lushui, etc., the three layers inside and the outer three layers surround the city, and the water system extends to the palace city.

One hundred and ten squares in the city, half of which has been completed.

And the palace is almost finished.

A city built by a person full of artistic cells, of course, will not be rigid, each square has its own characteristics, the attic is uneven, the blue bricks and gray tiles, the eaves and arches, the weather is thousands.

The biggest difference with Chang'an is that Ji Kang used a large number of red and black colors, which added a touch of freshness and solemnity in the dark tones of the Wei and Jin dynasties.

The palace is in bright yellow and red.

Ji Kang's various artistic imaginations were fully developed, and many aerial corridors were designed to connect the palaces.

"I'm afraid this city can hold a million people." Wei Qian exclaimed.

"This is the capital of my Great Qin!" Yang Xu said excitedly.

Yang Zheng was also amazed, but the money was also painful.

More than 100,000 slaves, plus the people who rushed to work, and the cattle and horses that transported timber and stone, all kinds of expenses added up to not a small number.

Even so, it did not meet Ji Kang's requirements.

It is said that Ji Kang was ready to build Xindu into a perfect city that no one had ever seen before......

Later, because of the start of the Hedong War, all the money and grain were used for war.

"The palace still needs to be polished, and the folk square is just beginning to take shape, and the city is ready to dig and build five large pools in the city, which need to be equipped with bridges, pavilions, water pavilions and other buildings." Ji Kang's face was flat, making Yang Zheng and his son seem to have never seen the turtles on the market.

"Wouldn't that be a budget increase?" Yang Zheng's eyes widened.

"This is natural, the world has not yet been unified, Guanzhong has such a weather, if the world is unified, Guanzhong will inevitably be more prosperous, as the imperial capital, of course, there must be the style of the imperial capital."

"Isn't the world still unified?" Yang Zheng had a headache.

Looking at Ji Kang's appearance, I am afraid that there will be more investment in the later stage.

"It's okay, didn't Your Majesty say ten or fifteen years? It's only been three years. ”

The problem is that Chang'an can't bear it anymore and is waiting for Xindu.

Unifying the world is by no means as easy as Ji Kang said.

How can there be no unification without money and no food?

Yang Zheng had a headache, the stall was too big, and now he couldn't hold it down.

"Why doesn't Your Majesty sell a batch of mansions in the new city?" Wei Qian said suddenly.

Yang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and a lightning bolt suddenly fell in his mind!

This、This is to open real estate and industry!

What could be more lucrative than selling a home?

Especially the imperial capital.

Which country in later generations is not supported by real estate and industry?

A proper pillar industry!

Yang Zheng secretly scolded himself for hutu, holding Jinshan and not knowing how to dig ......

Who is the richest these days?

Of course, it's the heroes of the clan.

Is it not beautiful to reap them with the premises and fruits of the new capital?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used the edict as a sickle, which was too inhumane and had a bad reputation.

I can't play it myself, so this hidden way to cut leeks is the best, and the warriors must jump into the pit.

In these years, they are generally poor, but the poor are only ordinary people, and the scholars have accumulated two or three hundred years, and their families have money and food, and their sense of smell is the most sensitive.

Daqin dominates the world, this is the biggest psychological expectation, and the biggest selling point!

The more Yang Zheng thought about it, the more excited he became, "Great goodness! The city can be divided into three areas, the east city is the residence of meritorious soldiers and courtiers, and the rest of the places are all taken out and sold. ”

Ji Kang said unhappily: "Business is an inferior industry, if the country is obsessed with the benefits of business, I am afraid that after a few decades, the society will be full of holes, Your Majesty should promote education, establish etiquette and human ethics, how can you do this?" ”

"Ji Zhongsan's words are wrong, the world is bustling, and it is all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit. Can there be any interoperability without business security? Confucius also said: Wealth and nobility are what people want! Poverty and cheapness are the evil of people! Wei Qian argued.

Ji Kang is also a master of Qing talk, and refuted: "Taking things out of context, wealth and nobility are what people want, and they don't get it with their ways, and they don't go anywhere." Poverty and cheapness are the evil of people; If you don't get it by its way, you won't go. For the way of the king, in virtue and benevolence! ”

Yang Zheng's head was big for a while, going around and around, and he taught himself a lesson, "Of course, education must be promoted, but education also needs money, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, I don't love money, but take it for the country, don't I sell the mansion and follow the example of Emperor Xiaowu's edict?" ”

The basic logic of the operation of the state is the economy.

If people are poor, they will have a worse life, but if the country is too poor, they will die.

Datang and Daming put it bluntly, they died poorly.

Zhuge Wuhou knew that he was operating Shu brocade and used it as military capital.

Yang Zheng sells the house, which is not too much.

Even the order was moved out, and Ji Kang was speechless.

"Shinong Industry and Commerce, the pillar of the country, of course I will not favor one over the other, but at this time and that time, I will not hurt the people and harm the people, Ji Zhongsan can wait and see."

Yang Zheng himself is also half-aware of the deeper things, but it does not prevent him from copying the homework of later generations.

Fortunately, Ji Kang is not a stubborn person, and he arched his hand and said: "The minister knows nothing about governing the country, but looking at what His Majesty has done for so many years, there are often amazing actions. ”

"Ji Zhong is too modest, if the businessman runs properly, it is also a move for the benefit of the people."

In fact, Chinese commerce has always been very prosperous, otherwise there would be two Silk Roads.

During the Warring States Period, there was a strange Lü Buwei.

Yang Zheng's principle is not to let things go, nor to be beaten to death with a stick, but to be reasonably controlled.
