When Zhong Qian left, she had an exchange with Yu Le for nearly two hours. Yu Le did not say the specific content, but Tan Qiao and Xiaobao squeezed Yu Le's shoulders hard when they saw Zhong Qian leaving. Moreover, Zhong Qian’s facial expression was serious. Later Yu Le recalled that Yu Le told Zhong Qian that if the current Tang Dynasty does not carry out effective political reforms, the country’s subjugation is inevitable, because the Tang Dynasty at this time has hindered the development process of history. Zhong Qian did not ask Yu Le for the specific reasons and rescue methods, because he knew that asking would be in vain. This was a top-down change that could not be solved in one go, so he left with a solemn expression. He felt When the crisis comes, I feel that the country will be subjugated!
Through the conversation with Zhong Qian, Yu Le felt that this person was not very big. He only thought about how to be loyal to the "Tang Dynasty" and ignored the national care and people's livelihood. He only thought about going up and not down. This may be the gentry class. Representative!
Dong Zhen, the magistrate of Xingzi County, saw that he had the opportunity to be promoted to an official position. He didn't know that his superior officer was here in person, and he didn't know Zhong Qian's schedule. He wanted to use this sports event to show his merit, but he was met by Zhong Qian. After a scolding, Zhong Qian was depressed! His own country is about to perish, but Dong Zhen, who doesn’t know how high the heaven and earth are, is still asking for credit and rewards. Don’t you know what’s going on? It was really delusional to want to get promoted and get rich just after giving a speech at the opening ceremony, so Dong Zhen was dismissed from get out of class, and he was very miserable. He was exiled for corruption and finally died on a desert island.
As for the selection of the new county magistrate, Zhong Qian wants to invite Tan Qiao to take over. The first is reputation, the second is influence, the third is ability, and the fourth is Yu Le's assistance. Yu Le is definitely not a talent in the pool, although He is only a little over 11 years old, but he will definitely accomplish something in the future. Why not give him a chance to show off his talents! This has many benefits for itself.
People are never saviors, there is no free love and charity! Most politicians think about issues in a wide range and involve many factors, but they mainly serve themselves.
After receiving Zhong Qian's letter of appointment, is Tan Qiao still considering whether to take office? He communicated with Yu Le. Now he is increasingly inseparable from Yu Le. Whenever he has any hesitation, he will involve Yu Le and listen to his suggestions. This time is a major event in his life. Opportunity, but I still feel that it is too late. I am already seventy years old and still have a few more years to go! Looking back at the Chun Chun teachings of my father, he told me to "learn well and become a scholar", but I was rejected by my young and frivolous self, so I resolutely chose to join the Taoism. Today, although I have a little fame, I still have a little reputation. It's just that the reputation of "immortal" has no practical significance. Regarding this appointment, I still want to go out and do something for the working people under my rule in the last few years of my life. Yu Le also supports it. , and the advice I give myself is to start with education. Don’t look at current events, but focus on the impact on the future. This is the importance of education. The same principle applies to “it takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people”.
"Done". Tan Qiao took office on the third day after receiving the letter of appointment. He wanted to take Yu Le with him, but Yu Le couldn't leave because he was the only real master in the school. But Yu Le came up with an idea to make education his career. The five-year plan to boost the economy of Qianjia Village allowed Tan Qiao to change the seat of Xingzi County. Of course Zhong Qian agreed. It was an insignificant matter, how could it be as important as Tan Qiao becoming the county magistrate! As long as he takes office, let him do whatever he wants!
In addition to being a wife, Yu Le also became Tan Qiao's master, Xiaobao was a bodyguard, and Qianjiacun became the seat of the county. The first task was infrastructure construction. The key was where the money came from. Zhong Qian was your No matter how hard it is, it doesn’t cost money. Yu Le wanted to sell the land for money.
First of all, Yu Le made an urban construction plan for the entire Qianjia Village. Qianjia Village is surrounded by mountains (Lushan) to the north, Liaohua Town to the east, and Panyang Lake to the east. It borders foreign towns to the west and south. There are about 50 households in the village. The total farmland in the village is less than 1,000 acres, which is completely insufficient for the size of the county. Yu Le wants to build Qianjia Village into a service-oriented city with the education industry as the core and the tourism industry as the supplement. Expanding land and adding people is the primary goal, and merging Liaohua Town is the first step. Liaohua Town has an area of 6,885 acres of cultivated land, including 3,775 acres of paddy fields, 3,110 acres of dry land, and 7,218 acres of mountain forest land. It has 9 villages under its jurisdiction, with a total population of 11,964. This goal was successfully accomplished without any hindrance.
The second step is to change the name. In the development of a city, the name is also very important. It is the label, cultural representative and symbol of a city. Yu Le changed its name to Lushan County (copying the name of a modern Chinese city) and completed.
The third step is to make the urban construction planning map. This is a complicated task. Yu Le lacks geographical knowledge and knows nothing about the landforms. Moreover, such a large project cannot be completed independently, so Tan Qiao invited Well-known "experts" from all over Jiangzhou held a meeting to discuss. The result was that Yu Le was excluded because Yu Le's plan destroyed a large amount of farmland. This is not allowed and is regarded as a shameful act that harms people invisibly. . Yu Le ignored the limitations of the times and the objective facts. In a country where there is only war, how can there be stable time for tourism and consumption? A large amount of farmland has been destroyed. What do the people eat? This is a very serious problem. Even his masters Tan Qiao and Xiaobao do not support Yu Le. Yu Le knows that he is wrong, how wrong it is. How can the Southern Tang Dynasty at this time compare with China in the 21st century!
In the end, Yu Le's planning suggestions for the main city were retained, and a university town was built based on Lushan Mountain. Everything else was changed beyond recognition, and Yu Le didn't care anymore. His own plan really didn't work, so why should he insist on it? , I am not a saint, so if I am wrong, just correct it!
After nearly four months of long research, it was finally completed. The final budget was 10 million taels of silver, which is a huge amount, and it was all self-financed. No one was in charge of this arduous task, and the talkative people were waiting for the money to be taken. .
At this time, Xingzi County was renamed Lushan County, and the establishment of a county office in Qianjiacun had already spread. Jinling had long known about it, and His Majesty the Emperor could not implement it until he personally approved it. Emperor E also wrote a letter asking about the situation. Originally, such a large construction project should be completed by the Ministry of Works, but once they heard that there was no money, they became silent.
Now that it is almost the twelfth lunar month, it is impossible to start construction, but now that public opinion has been publicized, let’s start offline hype! Of course, it was Gao Pingchuan who took the lead. Yu Le asked Gao Pingchuan to build a temporary, finely decorated sales office in Liaohua Town, and then made a sand table for the entire future Lushan County, and found people with experience in selling houses to train them for 20 years. Beautiful women who were well-known for their literacy, strong language skills and clear articulation, that is, salespeople, prepared sales techniques for them and asked them to practice them, and then asked Gao Pingchuan to secretly set up a number of construction units. , Yi Le released the first piece of land, allowing these construction units to bid, and the successful bidder would start construction.
After the long winter, on March 20, 949 AD, Yu Le came to the third year of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. After Yu Le's planning, the first urban construction bid opening ceremony of Lushan County was held in Liaohua Town. Previously, in the name of Tan Qiao, Jiangzhou governor Zhong Qian, Tongpan, Sima and other important officials, as well as all the dignitaries and well-known businessmen in Jiangzhou were invited to attend the bidding opening ceremony. When everyone arrived, they first invited twenty beautiful salespeople Explaining the sand table to everyone and providing refreshments is actually a modern product presentation, followed by a public bidding opening. Most of the people attending the first bid opening came to watch the excitement. The freshness is very important, and the audience group is even more important. There are also many expansion activities interspersed during the period, such as Invincible Hot Wheels, Any Back Fall, Eyebrow Stick, Station Pass Letter, Blind Man Everyone present can participate in the square formation, etc., and everyone has fun and laughs!
In addition to admiring the bid opening ceremony, everyone also loved the sand table. Everyone wanted to have one. Yu Le asked Gao Pingchuan to make a souvenir for everyone, a set of exquisite wooden packages with a panoramic view of Xinlu Mountain painted on it. Tea sets, these were all prepared during the New Year. After the bidding was opened, news spread throughout Jiangzhou that nobles from the governor, tongpan, and sima, and this and that family wanted to buy a house in Xinlushan County. The ones who were optimistic about it were the local ones. Environmental and educational resources, as well as geographical location, with direct access to Panyang Lake, developed water transportation, and convenient transportation. Anyway, anyone with a bit of fame in Jiangzhou has to buy a house. Some people even say that Mr. Situ Zhou has reserved a piece of land long ago to build a house for himself. A luxurious compound with five entrances and five exits. As a result, the new Lushan County exploded, and many wealthy people began to want to invest in real estate in Lushan County. Those who wanted to buy land turned to Yu Le, and those who wanted to buy houses turned to Gao Pingchuan. This kind of "pre-sale" method and this new "game" allowed Gao Pingchuan to once again invest in real estate in Lushan County. Yu Le regarded him as a god-like being, and wrote a contract stipulating that as long as Lushan County's investment profits (net profits) were "50-50 split" with Yu Le.
Jealousy and envy are normal psychology, but when it escalates to hatred, it is abnormal. Seeing the popularity of real estate in Lushan County, unscrupulous nobles and unscrupulous businessmen began to conspire against Gao Pingchuan. Yu Le and the others did not dare to offend him because of Tan Xianren and the identity of the county magistrate, so they could only find the weak Gao Pingchuan. First, they cut off Gao Pingchuan's supply channels and stopped supplying all construction materials to Gao Pingchuan. They thought that Gao Pingchuan would suffer huge losses if he overdue delivery. This was the first time Pingchuan encountered a group beating him, and he hurriedly asked Yu Le for help. Yu Le thought about it and looked at the "enemies" Gao Pingchuan investigated. There were indeed many people with "roots". This is not easy to handle!
Yu Le analyzed the balance of power between the enemy and ourselves, and found that he was really weak, with no one to rely on except the county magistrate. As for the governor, he was just a straw, forget it! Some things are better to retreat than to advance! In fact, there is progress there! It’s just giving up!
Yu Le asked his master Tan Qiao to write to Zhong Qian, telling him the truth that there are dignitaries colluding with wealthy businessmen to take the construction of Xinlushan Town as their own. We can give up, but we are not sure about the quality and time period of the project construction. expressed doubts; on the other hand, Gao Pingchuan invited the "bad guy group" to negotiate to resolve the matter.
Soon Zhong Qian wrote to Emperor Li Jing, denounced that someone had evil intentions and secretly amassed money for the purpose of building Lushan County. It was unheard of for the imperial court to build a city without paying a penny, so she asked the emperor to severely punish her. Lawless people use it to cultivate righteousness and reward capable people. Emperor Li Jing read Zhong Qian's memorial and felt that this group of people had gone too far. It was too obvious that they wanted to "pick peaches". Besides, this was a county under the rule of Tan Xianren! It was not easy for Zhong Qian to invite him out of the mountain, and he retired because of this incident. If word spread, so many "vassal states" would be watching! Where should I put my face? So the decree was issued: all matters such as the establishment of Lushan County would be in charge of Lushan County Magistrate Tan Qiao, and other idlers were not allowed to participate.
While the imperial edict was still on the road for a while, after several confrontations with the bad guy group, Yu Le finally sold all the planning materials for building Lushan County to them for five million taels of silver. Yu Le refused to give in on the price, and they couldn't start construction without the planning drawings. So the bad guys group who were eager to get money thought that the money would come back when the city was built anyway, so they agreed.
So, because of the time difference, Yu Le and Gao Pingchuan got five million taels of silver in vain. Yu Le was really happy afterwards! It seems that slow communication is not without its disadvantages, hahahaha!
Tan Qiao, who received the imperial edict, straightened up this time. He who wanted to retire really felt the darkness in officialdom this time. He took the imperial edict as a command arrow and without giving any face, he directly sealed the construction site to prevent the bad guys group. Entering the scene, the bad guy group is forced to assassinate Tan Qiao, but someone reminds him that once Tan Qiao is killed, it will be a serious crime for everyone to be executed! He is an immortal! Besides, it wasn’t obtained legitimately, maybe it was because he offended the immortal and was punished!
The bad guy group found Yu Le again and asked Yu Le to buy back the planning data at the original price. Yu Le thought to himself: You are really talking in your sleep in broad daylight, is it possible? Strongly disagree.
After arduous negotiations between the two parties, Yu Le finally made a compromise. The money would not be refunded, but the other party could contribute more money to buy shares, and there was no control right but only the right to dividends. In the end, the bad guy took another 2.5 million taels of silver to obtain 30% of the equity, ending the dispute. Yu Le knew that he couldn't eat such a big bun and would starve to death if he ate it, so he acted according to the situation and shared the risks. Money is really earned by one person, but it is definitely not spent by one person.
Many people face difficulties head on, but many times it seems more beneficial to just go with the flow!
