"The Tang Dynasty now has a population of 6 million households. Is it not as good as the Sui Dynasty?"
"It's different. The Dingkou of the former Sui Dynasty was purely Han Chinese. The six million households in our Tang Dynasty also include the vassal population outside the Great Wall and the vassal population of the three Liaodong Kingdoms. If we only count the Dingkou of the Tang Dynasty, the maximum number is four million households. ...However, these people are like weeds. If you don’t pay attention, they will multiply. By the time you come to the throne, I, the Tang Dynasty, will probably have more than eight million..."
"So, what my master is doing now is to give me more penises in the Tang Dynasty?"
"No, Yunchu has a very unique idea. The territory of our Tang Dynasty is too big. If there is no population that can match the territory, it will be useless to occupy more land. Didn't you notice that there have been no wars in the past few years? The Turks The population there has increased a lot, and they still graze their herds on the original land. Except for the addition of an extra Tiankhan above their heads and the fact that they dare not knock on the gate easily, there are not many changes.
Your master Yunchu just wants to make the people richer. If they are rich, they can have more babies. When the babies grow up, they will naturally live in those open spaces. In the end, that open space will truly become my Datang's. "
"Those who manipulate copper coins should die!" Li Hong was furious in his palace filled with the smell of blood.
"Don't count me out. I was entrusted by your great-grandfather to manipulate copper coins."
"I mean whoever is still manipulating copper coins deserves to die." Li Hong smashed the pillar with his iron-gloved right hand, making a loud noise.
"Oh, my prince, I don't dare to say that, especially not in front of His Majesty, otherwise His Majesty will be angry."
Li Hong pulled out the thumb of the pillar with force, waved his fist and said filial piety: "After the lonely king ascends the throne, only the lonely king can mint money in the world. As long as there is a private person to mint money, the lonely king will cast money." The king destroyed all nine of his clans!
Amid Li Hong's incompetent roar of filial piety, Yunchu returned to Chang'an.
Just after crossing the Ba Bridge, I noticed thick smoke billowing from the direction of Chang'an City, and dust was flying all over the sky. Under major projects, whether it was burning bricks, burning charcoal, burning lime, burning charcoal, or smelting iron, a lot of thick smoke would be produced.
Yun Chu tied a handkerchief on his face and said to Wen Wen, "Once the construction of Chang'an City is completed, these iron factories, brick factories, charcoal kilns, and lime kilns must be moved to places where they cannot be seen."
Wen Geng, who was also wearing a face scarf, said: "These things shouldn't be left in Guanzhong."
Yun Chu sneered and said, "If you want the value of these things to increase, just do this."
Wen Wen frowned and said, "Guan Feng is too small to blow away so much smog."
Yunchu laughed and said, "Don't you realize that this is the taste of wealth?"
Wen Wen sneered: "People say copper smells, but this thing really does stink."
"Then don't live in Chang'an anymore. You will stink to death after I put gold foil on Chang'an."
"I don't like it. People in the world only love the smell of copper. I have no choice but to do it."
I haven't seen Chang'an for a month, and great changes have taken place here. A simple city gate has been built at the gap. It uses huge wood. Such a city gate is usually effective in preventing theft. If it is to stop the army, it is far away. Not enough anymore.
In order to facilitate the huge amount of building materials entering Chang'an, the people from the Capital Water Supervision Bureau connected the Chan River with the moat. Therefore, the water volume of the moat has more than doubled than before, and the flow rate is much faster. Watching countless boats and wooden boats lining the moat Walking up the river, Yunchu began to worry about the flooding in Chang'an City.
….
Yu Xiurong, Naha and the others went home, while Yun Chu went directly to Chang'an Liushou Mansion to meet Liu Rengui.
In June, the heat in Chang'an was already unbearable. Liu Rengui was wearing a sleeveless sweatshirt, revealing two lean dark arms, and was scolding Master Liu and his party.
Seeing Yun Chu and Wen Wen come in, Master Liu and others felt like they had received an amnesty, and after Yun Chu and Wen Wen bowed, they ran away quickly.
Liu Rengui picked up the teapot and poured a pot of water into his stomach before saying to Yun Chu and Wen Wen, "Where is the money you got?"
Yun Chu smiled and said, "On the way."
Liu Rengui sat down on the chair in the middle, shook a cattail leaf fan in his hand and said slowly: "Three thousand a day."
Four hundred strings, without this number, your project will not be able to move forward.
There were also some small-scale material merchants who could no longer afford to pay for materials in advance. They all cried out in front of me, saying that they were going to jump into the river if they could no longer get the money for materials.
I made a rough calculation and found out that without 100,000 yuan, there is no way for them to continue to provide materials.
This is only one month. In other words, the current monthly expenses are more than 200,000 yuan. The money coffers of Chang'an and Wannian counties have now bottomed out. If there is no subsequent financial support, you two will be finished. . "
Yun Chu looked at each other tenderly and smiled gently: "The construction costs of city walls, roads, waterways, and streets cannot be left to private individuals.
We thought that the rest of the city renovation could be done by private individuals at a lump sum price, so that we would have money. "
Liu Rengui shook his head and said, "No, it cannot be left to private individuals. Once these people get into the money, the people who believe that the government will hand over their land deeds will suffer losses, and it is a loss they simply cannot afford."
Yunchu smiled silently and said: "Since those big families who don't like the common people don't want people, we'll do it all. Leave empty cities and towns to them to build. If they can't build them by then, don't want them." Blame me for being cruel."
Liu Rengui was stunned for a moment and said: "You want the money of the rich and the poor at the same time, but if you don't need the land, how can you make money?
Don’t forget that the two counties have invested more than 1 million yuan so far. "
Yun Chu nodded and said: "The government is not supposed to make money. We are a group of people supported by taxes. If the government starts to make money, it means that the government is incompetent.
As long as the people are wealthy, we will have taxes to collect and inexhaustible money. When we spend the money, the people will become richer. This cycle repeats and this is the symbiotic relationship between the government and the people. "
She smiled softly and said, "I'm almost done holding it in. I think it's time to take action on the houses and shops on both sides of Suzaku Street."
Liu Rengui nodded and said: "That's almost it. Many people have come to me to quote the price. The highest one is willing to pay 6,000 yuan to buy a two-entry house."
Yun Chu smiled contemptuously, Wen Wen also dismissed the price of six thousand guan.
Liu Rengui looked at their faces and said, "Ten thousand guan?"
Yun Chu said: "The Imperial Medical Office is going to build a Imperial Hospital in Chang'an City, with the old immortal in charge. There will also be sixteen medical doctors from the Imperial Hospital, thirty-two chief doctors, two hundred famous doctors, and three hundred medicine boys. , and five hundred servants are needed.
….
Anyone who has purchased the luxury houses on both sides of Zhuque Street does not need to go through the normal procedures to see a doctor in this hospital. The person who treats them is at least the chief physician of the Imperial Medical Office. For acute and serious illnesses, they can stay in the hospital. There are famous doctors taking care of you at all times. You can ask them, how much should they pay for this item?
Six thousand strings?
Do you want to buy pig pens on both sides of Zhuque Street?
Tell this group of people that even if they are pig pens, not everyone can afford the pig pens on both sides of Suzaku Street.
If they do not comply with the "Chronicles of the Clan" approved by Emperor Taizong, those who are below the rank of fifth-rank official are told to get out of here and don't humiliate my Zhuque Street. "
Liu Rengui couldn't remember how many times he had breathed in cold air, which made him feel cold all over after listening to Yun Chu's words.
[Currently used, this is the most comprehensive and best-used book-listening sound system. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines with over 100 kinds of sounds, and also supports offline reading.
However, I think it is possible, the most representative, and the most authoritative to involve the people of Chang'an. "
It was obviously a hot summer day, but Liu Rengui shivered several times and said to Yun Chu, "If Mr. Li cannot be ranked first, have you ever thought about the consequences?"
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Li's naturally ranks first. As for who ranks second, we can't control it."
"Temperance?" Liu Rengui's voice already had a broken tone.
Yun Chu did not tell Liu Rengui, an honest man, how to control himself, nor did he say that he had the idea of gradually bringing the ranking in "Clan Chronicle" to be in line with the ranking in Pingkangfang's "Oiran Ranking".
This thing cannot be scheduled every five years. Each time, a copper plate must be found to print a form, and then sent to every adult in Chang'an. Everyone draws circles or crosses on the form, and finally counts it before publishing it... Whoever has more circles will rank higher...
The oiran sings, dances, and juggles in Jinchangfang every year. For the same reason, clans that like to spend money to improve their family rank have great hope.
Of course, if it can be arranged once a year, it will have the biggest impact on the aristocratic family. There is too much learning that can be done here.
The explosion in Luoyang was nothing in Luoyang, because the real aftermath of the explosion was in Chang'an.
When the royal family's antipathy towards the aristocratic family reached its peak, it was possible that the rankings released by the common people would be acquiesced by the emperor.
Yunchu was familiar with this kind of operation. Anyway, he had done this kind of ranking in government agencies before.
If the emperor really allowed him to do this, he could even compile a list of the heads of famous families, how many women Ye Yu had, and how many children he gave birth to. Anyway, the people would definitely like to hear about it.
Nothing noble can withstand entertainment...
Now, it depends on whether the emperor can remain silent on this kind of folk "clan chronicle".
Thinking of this, Yun Chu felt that he had not taken things to the extreme in Luoyang. At that time, he should have found an opportunity to throw a few bundles of gunpowder into the residences of the emperor and empress...
"How are you going to sell the house and shop on Zhuque Street?" Liu Rengui, who calmed down, quickly figured out his thinking. No matter what Yunchu did, the only way to go is to sell the house at a high price.
Wen Wen laughed and said, "Of course it's an auction..."
