59 Chapter 59

"Sell the house early?" Li Si paused slightly, "It's indeed a good idea." "

"The location of the shop determines the interests of the merchants."

"Businessmen are profit-oriented, and for the sake of profit, they will do whatever it takes to get the best shop." "As long as they are willing to do whatever it takes, Your Majesty will have a steady stream of money to build Xianyang New City."

Li Si's eyes were full of light.

Today, discussing the planning of Xianyang New Town, Li Si brought several planning maps, one for the temple people to give to Yingzheng, one for Meng Yi, one for Hehua, and the last one is still in several places on his case, there is pen and ink on the case, he slightly straightened his sleeves, dipped the pen in ink, and circled the best place under his own planning.

The small temple people were very eye-catching, Li Si put down the pen, and the small temple people brought up the planning map and showed it to Yingzheng on the main seat.

"Your Majesty, these positions are worth tens of thousands of dollars, aren't they?" Li Si stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Hehua sat opposite Li Si, and just happened to be able to see the position of the circle on the planning map, this palm-sized position was worth tens of thousands of dollars? Is the house in Xianyang New Town so expensive?

"Worth 10,000 dollars?" Hehua exclaimed in surprise, "These shops are so valuable?"

Meng Yi glanced at Hehua.

The girl is a little older than the previous two years, much taller, no longer speaks slurred, more and more organized, and a little more intelligent can be vividly expressed in her, perfectly inheriting her father's sharp acumen, a little bit of news, can let her see the essence of the problem.

- Really smart.

If you weren't smart, you wouldn't have said something as shocking as just now.

But her intelligence is not sharp, or she is too well protected by her father, she does not realize that she is at the peak of power, and she needs to be cautious to protect herself, but faces her father and Daqin with a pure heart.

"The head of the Qiantou is a human being, not an animal that practices at will." "It's exploitation."

She said the words so easily, without the slightest concern that the supreme ruler would be angry with her words, or that she had blind trust in her father, and she was sure that the emperor would not be angry, so she had the impudence to offer different opinions, although such opinions were no less than thunder in the eyes of the people of this era.

Meng Yi raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows.

- In the end, he was young, and he was held by His Majesty

Those who grow in the palm of their hands naturally dare to compete with the heavenly princess.

Meng Yi smiled, "These shops can make merchants earn money every day, and they are naturally worth ten thousand gold." "Don't say ten thousand dollars, even if it is more expensive, they will buy it after weighing the pros and cons."

"It's just that one spends a lot of money without blinking, and the other needs to mortgage some farm shops to buy it." Meng Yi said.

Hehua snorted, "It's easy to make money in business, and they are willing to buy such an expensive shop." "However, if these shops are so expensive, will they affect the ordinary Qianshou in the new city?"

Win Zheng's eyelids raised slightly.

——The education in the other world is completely different from that of Great Qin, and the eleven can think of Qianshou everywhere, clothing, food, housing, and transportation, and they are all worried.

Meng Yi was suddenly a little curious about education in another world.

This is a completely different way of education from Daqin and even the past history, they think about the thousands of generations of the dynasty and the eternal prosperity of the monarch, but the princess thinks that it is not easy for Qianshou.

Hehua remembered the teacher's gnashing of teeth about the high housing prices, "Merchants have money, they can buy such an expensive shop." "But ordinary Qianshou don't have so much money and can't afford to buy such an expensive house, what should they do?"

"It's easy."

Li Si put away the planning map, picked up the pen and drew another area on it, and after the drawing was finished, the small temple man next to him diligently picked up the planning map for him.

Li Sidao, "If you don't want the merchants' shops to affect the houses in Qianshou, you should distinguish the commercial area from the residential area."

"The shops in the commercial area are expensive, and they can be allowed to do business here, while the residential area can only be used for residential purposes, and they cannot participate in anything in business."

In fact, the current Xianyang City also has this kind of division, which place sells what things are strictly regulated, it is not allowed to sell things across regions, and it is not allowed to open stores in residential areas, once the regulations are violated, they will be severely punished, so that each area performs its own duties, and Xianyang City is in order.

This orderly order continued until the Silk Road was opened, a large number of Hu caravans poured into Xianyang City, and enough taxes were paid, so Ying Zheng issued a decree to set aside a place for the Hu people to do business with Daqin, and with a safe business environment, it was possible to attract a steady stream of Hu caravans.

This strategy proved to be very useful, after the new business zone was carved out, more Hu people came to Daqin to do business, who doesn't like a stable business environment? Especially after meeting the instability of the local area, they like the peace and tranquility of Xianyang more and more.

/ > A large number of Hu people settled in Xianyang City.

Of course, there are not only Hu people, but also businessmen from all over Kyushu, and the prosperity and convenience of Xianyang have made them drag their families to come and take root in Xianyang.

There are too many people and too many people, the old Xianyang City can no longer meet the growing crowd, and the originally clearly divided commercial market has gradually become chaotic because of the influx of too many merchants, and even the existence of shops in residential areas.

- Compared with the housing prices in the urban areas of Shangjia, the residential areas are much cheaper, even after calling a huge fine, the housing prices are much lower than the housing prices there, so many businessmen take advantage of the loopholes to rent or buy houses in the residential areas to do business, making the already chaotic urban planning more and more chaotic.

This is where the new city needs to be attacked, Li Si did not hesitate, and asked Ying Zheng for instructions, "Your Majesty, the businessmen have a lot of money, and the rich are on the one side, and the fines for those illegal leases are astronomical for the Qianshou, but they are a drop in the bucket."

"The minister thinks that when the fine is increased and the criminal law is heavy, the businessmen will not dare to take advantage of the opportunistic and disturb the civil area."

"Yes."

Win the political front.

Hehua blinked.

This can indeed effectively curb the merchants from disturbing the residential area, the housing prices near the commercial area will be a little higher, the price in the residential area will be cheaper, each living in its own way, do not interfere with each other, but there is still a question, will the businessmen who heard the news hoard the house, and then sell it after the new city is completed, and can earn countless money by buying and selling?

"Tingwei, I have one more question."

Hehua said, "Merchants are different from ordinary Qianshou, their sense of smell is extremely keen, ordinary Qianshou can't realize the importance of Xincheng houses, and they won't have so much money to buy a house in advance, but businessmen know the importance of houses, and the money in their hands is enough to support them to buy a big house, so will they buy a lot of houses, and then maliciously hoard and drive up house prices?"

Meng Yi's brows moved slightly.

- The princess's focus is still on the ordinary Qianshou.

Without thinking, "Yes."

"But they have to go to the government to record and transfer the house when they buy and sell the house, and as long as they go to the government to file and transfer, they have to pay taxes to Daqin, and the more they buy, the more taxes the treasury will receive."

"The buyer has to pay taxes, and the buyers have to pay taxes."

Hehua sighed, "But merchants are so shrewd, how can they pay their own taxes? will only transfer this part of the tax they pay to the person who bought the house,

So the taxes we receive are not the taxes of the merchants and the heads of the Qian, but all the hard-earned money of the leaders. "

"Merchants don't produce and don't have to pay taxes, can they make a lot of money?" Why?" They're businessmen?"

Li Si chuckled in his heart.

Win Zheng's eyelids raised slightly.

Hehua looked up at Yingzheng, "Father, I don't agree with this reasoning."

"You don't have to produce, you don't have to pay taxes, but you have a lot of wealth." Ying Zheng's fingers curled slightly, rubbing the ink jade wrench on his thumb, "This matter is indeed not worthy of recognition."

"That's right."

Hehua said, "There is no need for money like this, which will only raise housing prices and will not produce any benefits to Daqin."

Her teachers are very virtuous teachers, they will not inquire about her family conditions, nor will they tell her about their family conditions, but after all, she has been studying for so long, she also has a simple understanding of the teachers, and from their occasional complaints, she knows that many of them are carrying mortgages, the mortgages are too high, and the wages are too low, and they dare not eat or drink when they are paid, and most of the money is paid to real estate.

She didn't want to see the future Da Qin do the same. The degree of wage increase cannot keep up with the degree of housing price increase, and a few people in the family tighten their belts to live, just for a place to stay.

Such a life is too difficult and too restless, and it is not good for either the individual or the country.

The money is all pressed on the house, ordinary people have no money left over to eat, drink and enjoy, no one eats and drinks to enjoy, the economy will stagnate, the country is poor, the head of the Qiantou is also poor, and the majority of the money is earned by black-hearted businessmen.

Lees didn't answer.

For a weak and impoverished country, the promotion of the status of businessmen will make the country's business environment flourish day by day, and the poor country will become prosperous.

But the princess's words are indeed reasonable, the high housing prices are indeed unfavorable to the head of the Qian, all the money in the hands of the head of the head of the money is pressed on the house, the currency is difficult to circulate, the currency is difficult to circulate, and the flourishing business is difficult to continue, after all, the prosperity of commerce depends on the countless heads of the Qian, not the two merchants.

Your Majesty will strike hard at the merchants who buy and sell houses. For the head of Qian, and for the treasury of Great Qin - there is no one who can earn a lot of money without spending a single child under His Majesty's nose!

"Li Si, you draft a charter to buy a house with the head of the household as a unit, and you can't buy more if you don't divide the family." Ying Zheng's voice was slow,

"A slave who has been restored to his or her first nationality shall not be allowed to buy a house or a shop for three years."

"Whoa."

Li Si hurriedly responded. - This trick is to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle, so that businessmen cannot drive up housing prices by hoarding houses.

As long as the elders are still there, they all live together, and when the elders are gone, they will be separated, so that even if the businessmen have a large population, they will not be able to buy houses according to the population, and they need to go to the government for the record, not if they want to divide the family, they can divide it.

It is difficult for businessmen to buy more houses by dividing their households.

As for the policy that slaves cannot buy land within three years of returning their registration, although it has a certain impact on the real slaves, it is to another extent to block the merchants from using slaves to buy houses.

Policy - Agreed.

Where is the trade area, where is the residential area, where is the place where glass crystal is produced, where is the place where paper is produced and Jijin is produced, all these places are determined, and then the edict is issued, and Kyushu is shaken-

"Did you hear that? Xianyang New City is about to start construction!" How did Your Majesty go back on his word? Didn't you say that it was not good to build construction? Why did you suddenly build a new city?

"Blind, this time is different from before, in the past, we brought our own food and tools, and we didn't have a penny for our tired work, but this time we don't have to bring it, the official package is food and shelter, and if you do a good job, you will have money to get!

Do you still have money for food and lodging? That's not a big deal to build!

"Yes, it's not the busy farming season, how much food do you have to eat at home? It's better to go to Xianyang to build a city!" Yes, yes, I'll go too, I have a lot of strength, and I'm sure I'll get the reward!

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, but for the leaders who have just solved the problem of food and clothing, as long as they can eat and shelter, and give a little money, it is enough for them to squeeze their heads to apply.

At the same time, the planning of the new city made countless businessmen ecstatic, because they not only got the planning drawing, but also got the model of the business district in the planning drawing, which is completely different from the current wooden structure of the construction method, is made of cement and glass crystal, less wooden structure, it means that it is not easy to catch fire, glass as a window, it means that their goods are easier to be seen by pedestrians, not to be walked into the store, they can be attracted by their goods, what a good store model!

There is a reason why you are expensive!

r/> buy it!

The business district was snapped up.

As for the residential area, it cannot be purchased in advance, and because of Yingzheng's iron-fisted methods, no one dares to attack the idea of private housing. - If you want money or death, businessmen can still carry it.

Countless amounts of money flowed into the treasury.

And this money is used to house the Qianshou who built Xianyang New Town, simple houses, no need for more delicious meals, let them spend a little monthly money, it is enough to make the generations of Qianshou who face the loess with their backs to the sky grateful.

"I have lived for so many years, and I have never been the only one who gives money to the state, and no country has given me money."

"It's still Your Majesty the Emperor, not only to keep me fed and clothed, but also to let me be able to get the money given to me by the state in my lifetime, and my life is worth it!

"Yes, we used to serve as conscripts, where have we seen money?"

"Not to mention the money, even the food tools are brought by themselves, and they work day and night, and if they work slowly, they will be beaten by officers and soldiers, and now it is completely different

It's like this, there is money to eat and live, and the officials speak kindly, how dare you think of this before?

Who's to say it isn't?

"I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, sometimes I don't dare to sleep, I'm afraid that I'm dreaming, and when I fall asleep and wake up, my dream will wake up, and I won't be able to return to such a good life.

Yes, I do the same. Days like this are like fairyland, so good that people can't believe it.

Ying Zheng's gaze lightly swept over Qianshou, who was sighing and talking while eating food that was difficult to swallow, and there was not much expression on his face.

The construction of Xianyang New City affects the heart of the world in Kyushu, every once in a while, someone will come to the construction site to inspect, the heads of the Qianqian are not surprised, and after getting up with a bowl to greet Yingzheng and his party, they squatted down while eating while continuing their own topic.

"I used to be from Korea, and when Korea was destroyed, we didn't feel good in our hearts, but now it seems that it is still destroyed, if King Han is still here, I will definitely not be able to live such a life.

"King Han will not give me a thousand catties of grain per mu, nor will he pay back the money in my food and lodging package, he will only collect tenant rent, collect taxes, and let me fight with the Qin soldiers to die.

In the past, there were wars every day, and people in any country did not have a good time. "It's different now, if we don't fight, even if we fight, we won't use so many people, we can live in peace."

"If we're still fighting, our days won't be so nourishing." &

#34; It costs more money to fight, and it costs money and food to pay people, in this case, we have a ghost when we live well!

"It's good to be peaceful."

"I like to live a peaceful life."

"Me too!"

Who doesn't like peaceful days, the key is that there are many kinds of peace.

"Wasn't it peaceful before? What kind of life did Qianshou live at that time? After paying the taxes, the things left in the field are not enough for themselves to eat, and the monarchs only care about their own pleasure, who cares about our life or death?

A monarch like His Majesty is definitely the first in history.

"Your Majesty thinks in your heart that we can live so well, if you can't think of it, it is to enjoy yourself, let's build a palace for him tirelessly, and it makes no difference whether we fight or not.

Yes, it's better for Your Majesty. Your Majesty, our days will be good.

Praise from various accents continues to reach Yingzheng's ears.

Different from the praise of the courtiers, the words of the Qianshou are more straightforward and simple, they don't care who the monarch is at this time, whether it is the king of Qin, the king of Han or the king of Wei, what they care about is whether this monarch is good to them, whether they can live a good life under the rule of this monarch.

And now, they lived, so they praised him from the bottom of their hearts, worshipped him, and were even willing to do anything for him—

"Seriously, Your Majesty is so good to us, if there is a real war in the future, I will definitely be the first to join the army." "I don't want to change the dynasty, I want to be the head of Great Qin." "Me too!"

"I also hope that our Majesty can live a little longer, a little longer, and it is better to live forever!"

"As long as Your Majesty is here, our Great Qin will become stronger and stronger, and our days will get better and better!"

Yes, and the little princess. "I heard that it was the little princess's suggestion to send us money, and the little princess really took us to heart."

The little princess is the goddess chosen by the Book of Heaven, and His Majesty is the first emperor of the three emperors and five emperors, I hope that they can all live a long life and be healthy forever.

Hehua, who was wearing regular clothes, shook Yingzheng's hand, and his low voice had a small jump, "Father, listen, they want you to live a long life and live forever!

They like you so much, you can do anything in their hearts!

Anything can be done?

4; Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows lazily, but it was just some boring flattery, not enough to worry about.

But having said that, the emperor's sharp eyebrows and eyes unexpectedly softened, and the eyebrows and eyes, which were too gorgeous for men, also had a light smile at this time.

"Ahem, what Your Majesty said is very true." Meng Yi coughed lightly, holding back his laughter.

Li Si stroked his beard lightly, trying to stifle a smile.

Meng Yi Li Si accompanied the emperor on the left and on the right, and the two people with very different personalities counted down in their hearts at this time: three, two-

The progress of the new city is quite fast, which is the work of the head of the Qianqian here.

The emperor, who disdainfully listened to the praise of the head of Qian, spoke slowly, and his voice was leisurely, "As the emperor, I can't turn a blind eye to their merits, pass on my edict, and reward all the Qianshou's wages for March. This money comes from my private treasury, and I don't have to use the silver taels of the treasury.

Here!

The officials who accompanied him were overjoyed.

- It doesn't matter if the money is not money, the important thing is that it was given by His Majesty the Emperor! It's a great honor! Who is willing to spend this money? It's sure to be passed on to future generations as family heirlooms!

Li Si almost broke the effort.

Who can refuse the sincere praise of others? The emperor who is high above is not exempt from vulgarity. - Especially this emperor likes gorgeous clothes, good music, and enjoys (1).

Meng Yi couldn't hold back any longer, Lang laughed out loud, Your Majesty is wise.

"Father's wisdom!"

Crane Hua Star Eyes.

"Well, Eleven is smart."

Ying Zheng smiled at the corner of his mouth and rubbed Hehua's soft hair.

"Hey, I think I heard someone shouting Your Majesty?" Can't you? How could His Majesty be here?

That's right, His Majesty the Emperor is in Zhangtai Palace, it is impossible to come to us, how dirty we are here, you must have heard it wrong. But, I, I seem to hear it, too. "And me."

The crowd suddenly fell silent.

I don't know how long it took, they slowly put down the bowl and looked at Yingzheng and his party who were drifting away.

How old is the princess?

"Seven? Or eight years old?"

"That girl just now—"

"Your Majesty must be it!"

"That's our Imperial Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

One person got up, and then more people stood up and shouted at Yingzheng and his party, "Your Majesty the Emperor!"

The voice was too sudden and too loud, the smile on Meng Yi's face dropped sharply, and he was instantly alert, "Protect Your Majesty!"

Li Si's breathing was slightly tight.

- Sure enough, he shouldn't have come from His Majesty's temperament, and it's no joke to have a mania in this situation!

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and protected Hehua, who was getting taller and taller, behind him.

"What's the panic?"

The emperor's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.

The guards silently drew their swords to protect the emperor to whom they had sworn allegiance.

However, in the next moment, they heard the voice of someone kneeling down - "Your Majesty the Emperor, you must live a long life!"
