Chapter 922: Serious Matters Eight
Private room on the second floor.
Xie Tongju, Liu Rui, and Guo Xuan never expected that they would have a time to sit at the same table with such a noble nobleman in their lives!
This made them excited and nervous at the same time.
They are all businessmen.
Don't look at their superficial scenery, in fact, they are still the lowest people in society.
And these two ......
One turned out to be the fourth princess of Ningguo!
The other did not know where he came from, but the mere identity of the regent's pillow was enough to prevent them from looking up.
They were about to bow down, but they were stopped by the unnamed mother.
"It's just a meal, where are there so many rules?"
Xiao Baozi waved his hand and sat down at the table.
After all, Ning Chuchu is the fourth princess of the Eight Classics, although she has been a bandit leader for so many days, but if she is serious, the quality in her bones is still unconsciously revealed.
She stretched out her hand and said, "Everyone, we don't know much about Chen'an." ”
"He's a person, there have never been such rules, and if you have a chance to see him in the future, you'll know."
"Old Chen, please sit down!"
"Everyone, sit down as you please."
Where does Chen Dingmao dare!
There are strict rules in the Chen family, let alone in front of the two mothers.
He hurriedly bowed down and said casually: "Little old man doesn't dare...... Please, please sit down, the little old man is fortunate to be able to sit with the two mothers, this is a great blessing for the little old man! ”
Ning Chuchu groaned slightly, didn't pretend anymore, and sat on the top seat.
Chen Dingmao cautiously sat down under Ning Chuchu.
Xie Tongju and the three of them dared to sit in turn.
Xiao Baozi didn't know how to entertain like this, and Ning Chuchu showed her princess demeanor at this time.
"Old Chen, your old man has come thousands of miles to this waterfront city and wants to come to play, but what is the good business?"
Chen Dingmao arched his hand:
"Don't hide it from the two mothers, the little old man has three intentions when he comes to Shuicheng."
"The first thing is to come and see this Xie Tongju Xie brother."
"Over the years, my Yingzhou Chen's tea, through Brother Xie's management, has gained some fame in this Linshui City, and the little old man wondered if this business could be bigger."
"For example, if you can have a place in Gangnam Province, or you can try it in Tamaki City, Kyoto."
"This is the second...... The regent built a new Yanjing city in Youzhou, although there is only one city wall now, but the little old man thought that the regent's move must have a deeper meaning, so he thought about going to Yanjing City in a few days to see. ”
"The location of Yanjing City is adjacent to the Great Wilderness Country, and from the current situation, the biggest hidden danger of our Ning Country is the Great Wilderness Country!"
The little old man dared to speculate......"
Chen Dingmao lowered his voice and said cautiously:
"Little old man thinks that the regent may have the intention of moving the capital!"
As soon as he said this, Ning Chuchu was immediately impressed by him.
And Xie Tongju and the three of them were taken aback.
Zhou Tongju hurriedly asked at this time:
"Duke Chen, there were rumors in Yujing City last year, saying that the regent is very likely to move the capital to Changle City......"
"Today's Changle City is much more prosperous than before!"
"As far as I know, in Jiangnan Province alone, there are many businessmen who went to Changle City, bought real estate in Changle City, and sent their children to ......."
"Youzhou...... Youzhou in the Northern Desert Road is the most inhospitable, and since it borders on the Great Wilderness Country, it is also the most unsafe. ”
"The regent moved the capital to Yanjing City...... That seems unlikely, right? ”
Chen Dingmao stroked his long beard, turned his head to look at Xie Tongju, and also asked:
"Are you also buying a house in Changle City?"
Xie Tongju's face turned red, and he said embarrassedly:
"I don't think that Changle City is the future capital, and it is also very close to Yujing City, and from a long-term perspective, doing business in Changle City should be the best place."
Chen Dingmao nodded, "You're right!" ”
Xie Tongju asked again: "But if the regent really moved the capital to Yanjing...... Wouldn't Changle City be deserted? ”
Chen Dingmao sighed for three breaths and said: "Don't think so much, such a big thing is just the old man's guess!" ”
He's not sure!
For three hundred years, Yujing City has always been the capital of Ningguo.
Looking at the millennium of the Dali Empire, Yujing City is also the capital of the Dali Empire!
The heritage of Yujing City is extremely thick, and it is far from being comparable to the Dongxu City of Kyoto of Wu Kingdom and the Four Wind City of Kyoto of Yue Kingdom.
It represents the culture of the Central Plains in the true sense of the word, and it is also the orthodoxy of the Han people.
It is now not only the political center of Ningguo, it is also the economic center of Ningguo.
Especially after the opening of the Yuguang Canal, its transportation is more convenient.
In addition, the regent intended to reform the Cao Yun and allow the merchants to have their own caravans.
Without the flooding of Shuangjiao Lake, the vast canal of Yuguang can be unblocked, the decrees of the imperial court can be transmitted more quickly, and commerce will surely usher in greater development.
Last year, it was rumored that the regent in Kyoto intended to move the capital to Changle City, which in the eyes of merchants all over the world, that is, Yujing City could not accommodate more people.
The Yujing City to Changle City is only a few dozen miles, and the two cities are fast and convenient, which not only solves the problem of increasing congestion in Yujing City, but also makes perfect use of the originally abandoned Changle City.
No one will suspect that there is something wrong with this.
Many people even admired the regent's double-trick approach.
Chen Dingmao did not doubt it.
It wasn't until he heard that Youzhou had built a Yanjing City that he had other ideas.
It's just his thoughts.
No matter how you look at it, moving the capital to Youzhou is really not in line with reality.
Chen Dingmao looked at Ning Chuchu and Xiao Baozi, and didn't see anything strange on their faces.
He pondered for a moment, and then said:
The old man thought that it would not be easy for Yanjing City to be really built...... The main thing is silver. ”
"In addition, even if Yanjing City is really built, that place is probably also used as a military fortress."
"So there's nothing wrong with you buying a property in Changle City."
"But the old man is a little interested in Yanjing City."
Ning Chu Chu Yile, "I'm afraid Elder Chen doesn't know, we came from that place, the place where Yanjing City is located, Chen An has named it Youdu County, which belongs to the management of Youzhou Mansion." ”
Chen Dingmao was stunned, then listened to Ning Chuchu and said again:
"But that place is really desolate!"
"Although there are 300,000 people today, they are all victims of the construction of the wall in Yanjing City."
"They have cultivated a lot of fertile land, and they have built houses there, and they have put down roots, but there are only villages in that place, not even a town, let alone any commerce."
"Old Chen, your Chen's tea can't be sold in that place!"
The poverty of the North Desert Road is even worse than that of the East Road.
If you open a tea house in the county of Beimo Road, you may be able to have some business, but now Youdu County ......
The corners of Ning Chuchu's mouth curled:
"Youdu County has only one bare-pole county order, and 300,000 people under its rule."
"That county order is called Zhuge Buliang, if Chen Laozhen goes to Youdu County and wants to know more things, you can always look for him."
Xiao Baozi, who was quite bored on the side, suddenly said at this time:
"If you want to say that Zhuge is not bright, he is also a talented person."
"I'm not very old, but I haven't even ...... daughter-in-law yet. It's also strange and pitiful. ”
