Chapter 910, The Grand Wedding Ceremony (1)

If a thousand fast boats set off at the same time, the victims who did not get on the boat would be dissatisfied, and there might be turmoil at that time.

After about half a month, the victims of Chang'an City who were willing to go to the border of Jiangnan have almost been transferred, and the remaining residents who are really unwilling to leave their homes have almost been properly resettled. When Luo Xiaocheng returned to Shennong Valley, he left an eight-pole boat in Chang'an City, which had hundreds of Yanshi, and now he is trying his best to repair the damaged houses in Chang'an City, because the people's houses are the most damaged, most of the Yanshi started from the official houses in the east and west cities, and now almost two months have passed, and most of the houses of the important ministers of the imperial court have been restored as before.

Most of the people who migrated were old and weak who had no labor, and most of the young and strong young people stayed in various construction sites in Chang'an City to work, and the government provided food and drink, and distributed money. In the course of this month, Chang'an City is being rebuilt at an extremely terrifying pace, waking up every morning to the sound of tinkling knocks and trumpets, and when you push the door and look at it, you seem to be able to see the new look of Chang'an City.

At this rate, Chang'an City's economy is also beginning to recover rapidly. Li Shimin allocated a huge amount of money from the state treasury to rebuild the east and west markets, and temporarily reduced all taxes. And promulgated the best conditions for doing business in Chang'an City, such as the full exemption of commercial taxes, which greatly attracted merchants from various regions to re-settle in, and even the Han family took this opportunity to open more than a dozen new branches in Chang'an. In just ten days, there was a small prosperity in the streets of Chang'an.

Such a huge handiwork, in all dynasties, except for the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that there is no dynasty that has such strong courage. No other dynasty had such a strong economic foundation.

In the past half a month, the Han family has sent a bride price to Linghu's family and hired him. Because of the emperor's marriage, the process of matchmaking was eliminated. Han Shigui and Linghu Gong looked at the new appearance of Chang'an City now, and their hearts were greatly settled, and after discussion, they unanimously set the wedding date.

More than a month before the wedding, Han Lun and Han Shigui finally said goodbye to Yangzhou and returned with a series of business privileges granted by the emperor. This time, the Han family paid as much as about two million silver taels, and even the other three in Yangzhou felt ashamed. However, among the series of privileges given to the Han family by Li Shimin, the reduction and exemption of taxes alone can allow the Han family to completely recover its capital within ten years, not to mention the rest of the projects, which will take ten years, as Yue Chengcheng expected, after two years, the market in Yangzhou and even the entire Jiangnan will definitely be the first for the Han family.

However, the situation seemed to be more violent than Yue Chengcheng expected, and after the Han family's fleet returned to Yangzhou, it was not only warmly received by local officials, but also countless commercial orders came in overwhelmingly. The scale of the Han family almost doubled immediately, and within ten days, they recruited workers in Yangzhou one after another, and opened branches in more than 30 cities near Yangzhou. For a time, the scale of the business was extremely large.

Perhaps this decision to spend a lot of money is really the most successful decision made by Han Shigui in his life, the Han family's two million business losses are being made up day by day, and the other three in Yangzhou are helpless, and they all take the initiative to cut off the industries that compete with the Han family, and even the Wei family has removed half of the restaurants and inns, which is really miserable.

As soon as he returned to Yangzhou, Han Lun seemed to be idle, and for a while, he didn't have to worry about the trivial matters of marriage, so Han Xuan contracted everything. Including silk, the flower boat to welcome the family, the budget for the wedding, and the arrangements for the guests of all parties, etc., she has all arranged everything. Han Lun had nothing to do, so he went to the disaster victims' settlement outside the city with Ran Tianluo and Shi Yunyang for free clinics. In the gratitude of everyone, one day is considered to be full.

However, the days of waiting have always passed a little too slowly, and by the day the big wedding ceremony arrived, fifteen days had passed.

Yangzhou City had already started celebrating three days ago, but today was the official day. In the early morning of this day, the sound of firecrackers resounded in the sky, Yangzhou several streets were noisy with the sound of gongs and drums, all the neighbors in a street outside the Han family had been tied with a big red ribbon, and even the archway at the entrance of the east and west cities had been hung with huge red flowers. All the shops of the Han family also put up signs: "In order to celebrate the wedding of the eldest son of the Han family, all the shops of the Han family will reduce the price by eighty percent within two days!" For a while, there was a wave of rush buying in Yangzhou City.

Han Lun stood in front of the bronze mirror, arranging his hair crown, and he was already wearing a big red wedding dress. Wearing a crown of white jade hair, from beginning to end, the extravagance is compelling. At this moment, the door of his room slammed open, only to see Han Xuan jump in, and when he saw his appearance, he suddenly covered his lips and said with a surprised smile: "Brother is so handsome today!"

Han Lun said with a smile: "The little girl can even say something nice." It's not easy. ”

Han Xuan stomped her feet and said, "Don't call me a little girl, I'm seventeen years old!"

Han Lun turned his head and said, "Okay, come and help me take a look, my hair crown seems to be stuck." Han Xuan walked over with a smile and helped Han Lun comb her long hair, she smiled: "Sister-in-law will definitely faint happily when she sees you today." ”

Han Lun smiled, "Why did you wipe your mouth with honey today? This is a bit unlike you." ”

Han Xuan pouted and said, "Because today is my brother's big day." I'm happy too. ”

Han Lun looked at her in the mirror and said, "Aren't you afraid that I won't play with you when I marry your sister-in-law and come back?"

Han Xuan suddenly pinched his face and said, "Don't, you dare!" Han Lun laughed and said, "This is my sister, alas!" Han Xuan also grinned and said, "Anyway, I haven't seen my sister-in-law yet, will she be very fierce and will beat me?" Han Lun nodded and said: "Maybe, you are so naughty, except for me and my mother, I am afraid that everyone wants to beat you." ”

Han Xuan's hand shook and he sighed with a frown, Han Lun stroked her face with a smile and said, "Tease you, sister-in-law is gentle." Han Xuan was about to say something, when suddenly there was a sound of gongs and drums outside the door, and Han Xuan also happened to insert the hairpin into the hair crown, and then pulled him up from the chair and pushed him out. He said: "Hurry up and leave, if you don't come early, you won't be able to come back tomorrow! If you miss the Spring Festival, then you will lose a lot!"

Han Lun knocked her head and said, "What does the little girl think!"

Han Xuan suddenly jumped up and said angrily: "I hate it, don't call me a little girl, I'm seventeen years old!!"

Han Lun hung a big red flower on his chest, and walked on the street on a high-headed horse, and the passers-by around him kept throwing congratulatory voices, Han Lun arched left and right, and thanked him repeatedly. When I walked to the dock, I had already passed a stick of incense.

Ten huge and strange ships had been parked on the river, and these ships were different from ordinary ships, their hulls were very elongated, with many gears arranged on the masts, and under the hulls there was a row of wheels like displacement cars, and there were no sails on board, but a dozen huge mechanical fishtails were installed in the stern.

This kind of ship is a kind of armor specially made by Han Lun, and as soon as he came back, he drew a map overnight and handed it to the Han family shipbuilding industry to build around the clock. Powered by magnets and spiritual power, these boats do not rely on the wind, and the underwater ships can propel the currents to move the ship forward, while the fishtail at the stern is used to change course. The speed is almost five times higher than that of an ordinary boat. In this way, the water journey between Chang'an and Yangzhou would have taken five days, but in this way, it was almost impossible to reach Chang'an in less than a day.

This time, Ran Tingluo decided to accompany him, after all, there is still a day's water journey from Chang'an to Yangzhou, and before returning to Yangzhou, the two of them can't meet, Han Lun knows Yu'er's temperament, and he is afraid that she will be bored and panicked along the way, so Han Lun begged Ran Tianluo to go with her, and she readily agreed.

The two of them boarded the Yanjia boat at the front and came to the deck, as soon as Han Lun turned around, he saw that the ferry was a black scene again, he couldn't help but be a little excited, and saluted his father and fellow villagers with his fists.

As soon as Han Lun pulled down the control lever he put on, the hull of the boat slowly moved on the surface of the river, and the people on the side of the ferry let out a burst of exclamation, and more than ten Yanjia boats also started one after another, the speed gradually became faster, and faster and faster, and after a while, it flew in the eyes of everyone and moved, and everyone let out a burst of exclamations again, and the Yanjia boat quickly left everyone's sight in this watchful eye.

On the other side of Chang'an City, the East City Linghu family.

Linghu Mansion has been completely renewed, and even the stone lion at the door has been replaced and draped in red satin. Today's Linghu Mansion is also full of people, endless, Linghu Gong stood at the door, his face was full of laughter, and he thanked the guests one by one.

"Lord Sun Wuji, the chief of the Ministry of Officials, a hundred horses of silk, a pair of dragons and phoenixes with auspicious jade carvings, and a handle of jade Ruyi!" I saw the eldest grandson Wuji approaching from the outside, and Linghu Gong also bowed, and the eldest grandson Wuji laughed and said: "Lord Linghu, congratulations!"

"The eldest grandson is polite, please sit inside and have tea. Sluggish. ”

"Where, where, Lord Linghu has worked hard. With that, he walked through the door. Linghu Gong began to receive the next guest again.

"Master Ouyang Tong, a scholar of Hongwenguan University and Lantailang, a pair of calligraphy and paintings, a bunch of purple jade crystal grapes, and a hundred-year-old daughter red eighteen altars. ”

"Lord Li Yifu, the supervising imperial history, a pair of jade unicorns, a pair of eight treasures and golden chun, and a night pearl!"

The little guy kept reporting the gift list, and the fox man also smiled, and welcomed some dignitaries one by one. It's so busy.
