0039 Chessboard Street
Liu Haojia observes the performance of these people in his daily actions. If you do a good job, you will naturally be promoted and rewarded, and if you do a bad job, you will not be a vegetarian, so you have to teach a lesson! Otherwise, they really thought that Gu Ningbo's Mansion was easy to bully!
And just two months ago, Liu Haojia also ordered a distant relative who came to take refuge directly to be killed by family law! The reason is very simple, this guy actually wants to steal the ratio of the secret recipe! So Liu Haojia didn't even think about it, and he didn't torture the mastermind behind him, and directly killed this person in the courtyard!
The person in charge of doing it is the personal entourage of Liu Haojia's brothers, and this is the first time they have seen blood! Although in the end, they were pale and their bodies swayed, but they still didn't spit out in Liu Guangyuan's scolding, and they passed this hurdle!
In fact, Liu Guangyuan's scolding did not do much to suppress their desire to vomit, but the mention of the word vomiting made them want to vomit even more! It's just that when they saw Liu Haojia's calm face, they felt a chill rush from their heels directly to the top of their heads, so the desire of several people to vomit disappeared in an instant! From then on, that face was engraved in their hearts!
But if they still have the heart to look at Liu Guangyuan and Liu Guangting at this time, they will find that the faces of the two of them are even more distorted than them! Because they have been paying attention to the two young masters, their performance is too surprising!
As the pillars of Gu Ningbo's Mansion in the future, the two young masters must pass this hurdle! When they were watching Liu Haonian, they had to be very good! For what they saw in his face was one point of bloodlust, two parts of excitement, three parts of uneasiness, and four parts of discomfort!
But when they saw Liu Haojia, they didn't see any emotional fluctuations on his face! So the two of them couldn't help but glance at each other, and at the same time made a judgment in their hearts, that is, the future patriarch chosen by the master was really the right choice!
In the past few years, Liu Haojia has completely played the role of a think tank in the house! And his father, as the head of Gu Ningbo's Mansion, was simply obedient to him! So now Liu Haojia has established a unique position in the house! Sometimes Liu Guangyuan can't make up his mind about doing things, and if he can't find Liu's father, he will directly ask Liu Haojia!
Therefore, under Liu Haojia's scheduling, Gu Ningbo's Mansion won steadily and steadily improved! In particular, the establishment of a small elegant building is a miraculous stroke, which simply makes the two brothers admire home! Moreover, while mastering the three major financial resources of Snow Sugar, Shiwei Zhai and Qingya Xiaozhu, it has also extended its influence into other industries, and has added seven or eight stores scattered!
While making money, Gu Ningbo's connections have also expanded to the Marquis level, and it can be said that Gu Ningbo's Mansion has become a small upstart in the Jingshi! So even if Liu Haojia sometimes makes some amazing moves, they will only bow their heads and do it!
For example, today Liu Haojia is going to do something very out of the ordinary, and this thing has been done for more than a year, and he has to do it once in about 20 days, and it has become a scene in the capital! That's to be a bully!
In the afternoon, the youngest of the first batch of children adopted by Liu Haojia ran over and said only one sentence: "Xiaolong is coming out of the water!" ”
Liu Haojia reacted instantly, and his long-awaited goal finally appeared! The little dragon in the child's mouth naturally refers to Emperor Wanli, who has just ascended the throne for more than a year, and when he comes out of the water, it naturally means that he leaves the palace! So Liu Haojia immediately ordered: "Change clothes and go to Qipan Street!" ”
The chessboard street he is talking about is one of the largest commercial districts! Since Yongle moved its capital to Beijing, with the stability of the regime, commerce in Beijing has gradually flourished. After Yongle, the city was "full of gloom, and the boudoirs were heard and bearish." Scales and tiles. Coiled its house, horses galloped together, cars and vehicles struck resolutely, and they were chased by each other. Wealthy businessmen, the road belongs to the department store filling committee, Qiu Jishan savings"!
It is also recorded in the "Dream of the Pine Window" that the Jingshi "shoulders his vehicle, and the traders are only the harvest of the fields, the need for cloth, and the equipment is full of buildings and treasures, and the precious Kunyu, Qiongzhu, Qijin, and Yuejia are expensive." Where the treasures of the mountains and seas, not owned by China, and the people of distant foreign lands, do not avoid the dangers and obstacles, and the scales are divergent, so the livestock gather for the world Rao southeast wealth and mountains and seas treasures are especially not gathered under the hub, and the sincerity is the road to the road", the prosperity of commerce and trade in the city can be seen!
After the Ming Dynasty opened the Grand Canal, the Yuan Dynasty once relied on the transportation of grain and flourished in the north of the city. At the same time, the Zhengyangmen area in the south of the city gradually flourished because of the circulation channels of Beijing's commercial goods, which created the Qipanjie commercial block between Damingmen and Zhengyangmen.
In the last years of Jiajing and the early years of Wanli, the "Imperial Capital Accumulation Victory Map" depicts the prosperity of the Qipanjie area. As seen in the painting, from the suburbs of Beijing to the endless stream of horses, vehicles, shoulders, and hand-held transport lines, in the "Chaoqian City" between Zhengyangmen and Daming Gate, there is a scene of cloth sheds stretched high, vertical and horizontal sandwiches, stalls selling goods one by one, scarves, boots, socks, clothes, cloth, silk, fur, folding fans, umbrellas, wooden combs, pu mats, knives, scissors, hammerheads, ceramic utensils, lampstands, copper locks, stirrups, saddles, books, calligraphy and paintings, paper and ink, pen inkstone, Yi Ding Buddha statues, jewelry, ivory, herbs, incense, paper flowers, There are all kinds of playthings, countless things, and there are endless things to see.
Zhengyangmen Outer Street is also very prosperous, according to the "Jingshi Wuchengfang Lane Hutong Collection" records: Zhengyangmen Outer Corridor Hutong, from north to south, there are headlines, two, three, four and Xihe along the street, commodity trade is very active.
Among them, Toutiao Hutong is mainly a lantern market, where more than 20 lantern shops are gathered, especially Wenshengzhai, Huameizhai, Xiuzhenzhai are the most famous; Langfang Ertiao Hutong is a place where jade antique shops are concentrated: Langfang Santiao Hutong is famous for dealing in small commodities such as needles, threads, and brains: the shop of Langfang Sitiao Hutong (now Dashilar).
At the same time, there are also east and west archway areas. The East 4th Pai Lou and West 4 Pai Lou areas in the East and West Towns are the other two important business districts in the city. The Dongsi Pailou business district is called Dongda City, which is gradually prosperous because of its location on the canal, the traffic artery for merchants and goods to enter the city. There are many warehouses near Dongda City, in addition to the seven warehouses set up in the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty added Lu rice warehouse, new Taicang, old Taicang, Nanxin warehouse, Fuxin warehouse and shipping warehouse.
At the same time, with the prosperity of the lamp market as an important regular market in Beijing in the Ming Dynasty, it also led to the development of commercial trade in the Dengshikou area. The Ming Dynasty lamp market is mainly displayed in the present Dengshikou Street, Dengshikou West Street, Dengshikou North Lane, Tongfu Jiadao area, the purpose of creating the lamp market is "Taizu built the southern capital at the beginning, Sheng is a color building, attracting rich businessmen from all over the world, putting the lamp for ten days", after moving the capital to Beijing, it is still formed by the old system.
