Chapter 746: Ready

Chapter 746 is ready

Of the four contracts, only one has a relationship with the Xiongnu tribe, for the simple reason that only by controlling the cattle, sheep and horses of the Xiongnu tribe can they have enough cattle, sheep and horses to make jerky.

As for jerky, everyone knows that it can be used as a snack, so that people can taste the taste of meat, and most importantly, it can become dry food for long-term journeys.

Whether it is a march to battle, a caravan on a long journey, or a fleet, this jerky can become their dry food.

Especially when marching and fighting, jerky can quickly replenish their physical strength and make them more brave in battle.

Therefore, the matter of dried meat cannot be given to others, but can only be done by yourself.

There is also milk powder, which can only come by themselves, and they have arranged for these two workshops to come to the border gate, instead of directly processing dried meat and milk powder in the breeding area.

Therefore, there are many workshops at the border gates.

In particular, there are more than a dozen jerky and milk powder workshops.

After a few more days, the map of Jiuquan County was sent, and now Jiuquan County is like a lonely city, very close to Jiayuguan.

However, Jiayuguan was built during the Zhu Yuanzhang period of the Ming Dynasty, and Daqin did not have it at this time, and there was only a city.

If you want to turn Jiuquan County into a commercial center, so that the merchants of the Western Regions and the people of Daqin can rest here, and even directly hand over the goods, then a major project needs to be carried out.

And who is in charge of this project? Of course, it's the construction team of Zhaojia Village.

Ying Zheng felt that Qin An was about to leave the mountain, and there was no need for the construction team to stay in the village all the time, so he planned to let them come out.

After the construction team came out, a twist and turn appeared in front of Ying Zheng, which was nothing more than wanting the construction team to repair roads, build bridges, and even renovate the entire city.

One of the memoranda is the memora of building the trading center of the Western Regions and Daqin, which was written by Meng Yi.

After Ying Zheng saw it, he asked Meng Yi how he suddenly thought of this.

Meng Yi meant that in the future, Great Qin would definitely attack the countries of the Western Regions, or even farther, and it was possible to occupy the entire world.

But this is not easy, Daqin needs to make a lot of preparations, first of all, the problem of transportation, if Daqin's soldiers set off directly from Xianyang City and arrive at the countries of the Western Regions, then the consumption in the middle will be very large.

However, if a city is established in the middle of the Western Regions and Great Qin, this city can not only become a trading center between the countries of the Western Regions and Great Qin, but also a supply station when the imperial court sends troops.

After Ying Zheng heard this, his heart was very different, so he supported Meng Yi to do so, and at the same time agreed to Meng Yi's request, and issued a holy decree that the imperial court would set up a trading center in Jiuquan County, so that the merchants of Great Qin and the Western Regions could rest and even trade in Jiuquan County.

At the same time, the matter of building Jiuquan County was handed over to Meng Yi to deal with with it all.

After Meng Yi received the holy decree, he directly revealed the news that he was willing to hand over the construction of Jiuquan County to the merchants, and he would plan the area, and then let the merchants bid, and the highest price would win.

This is a business opportunity, and businessmen who smell it have come to the door to find Meng Yi and reveal what they are willing to invest in.

Among them, the heads of the three families of Meng Baigan personally came to inquire, and they clearly told Meng Yi at that time that they must participate in the construction of Jiuquan County.

Facing the three family heads, especially Bai Siqi, the head of the Bai family, Meng Yi could only agree to them.

Later, there were more and more people, and Meng Yi simply did not refuse to come, as long as you came, I would agree.

In the end, more than a hundred nobles and merchants gathered, and this group of people were all families and merchants with amazing wealth in Xianyang City.

And some mid-range nobles and merchants, they are not qualified to go with Meng Yi and them, they can only follow from afar, for them, Jiuquan County is also their opportunity.

Although they didn't have the opportunity to participate in the construction, they could do business there, and even set up a caravan directly in Jiuquan County to go to the Western Regions, which was much better than starting from Xianyang City.

Now Meng Yi got the map of Jiuquan Road County and immediately added it

in the barracks of the merchants.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the map has arrived, and now everyone gathers, and in half an hour, we will begin to auction off the various areas, and whoever succeeds in auctioning the land will be able to build a planned house on the land.

These houses can be sold or used by themselves, and the imperial court will not care. In addition, the money obtained by the auctioneer will be used by the imperial court to develop Jiuquan County.

For example, building oases, digging rivers, building windmills to generate electricity, building roads, and so on. I guarantee that the prosperity here is not inferior to that of Xianyang City." Meng Yi said.

When the merchants and nobles heard this, they came to the map, which was now full of stools.

There is a sign on each stool, and there is a number on the sign, and then Meng Yi writes it down according to the names and numbers of the people present, and then the other party confirms.

Half an hour passed quickly.

After everyone was done, Meng Yi stood in front of everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first auction of Great Qin has officially begun." After Meng Yi finished speaking, he said directly to the map, "This is the map of Jiuquan County, and I have planned it into three areas.

The first area is the commercial district, which is divided into food streets, commercial streets, and so on.

Then there is the industrial zone, the industrial zone is the major workshops, after Jiuquan County becomes a trading center, some workshops will definitely be established, after the establishment of these workshops, some goods can be completed directly in Jiuquan County, which greatly shortens the time of trading.

I'm afraid everyone knows that the merchants of the Western Regions need to arrive in Xianyang City when they buy the goods of Daqin.

Now some goods can be completed directly in Jiuquan County, and they can quickly conclude transactions with merchants in the Western Regions.

Just imagine how bad your mood is when you work so hard to get the goods to Jiuquan County, and you are not as fast as others."

When everyone heard this, they all nodded, and some even began to talk to each other.

"Everyone, please be quiet."

Meng Yi's words instantly quieted everyone down.

Meng Yi looked at everyone present with satisfaction and continued, "After the industrial area, there is a residential area, a school area, an entertainment area, and so on.

Some people don't want these areas, some people are bound to get them, and the next auction will let everyone know about it."

"Lord Meng Yi. Let's start now, we're all getting tired of waiting." The merchant sitting at the front said.

This person is the merchant representative of the Bai family, Bai Ming.

Sitting next to him was Bai Yiming, the representative of the Bai family.

In business, Bai Yiming is in charge, and Bai Ming is the auxiliary, that is, the duty of the military advisor.

Bai Yiming was able to come here, mainly because his family let him open his eyes, which was an experience, and Bai Ming was Bai Yiming's military advisor, helping Bai Yiming to make suggestions and learn more about business.
