suddenly see the light.
Bai Song's idea was not wrong.
Even if urban reconstruction is a bad project, the court still has to stick to it.
The first wave of money was issued to stabilize the current situation.
It’s unclear whether Xiao Bai An’s contribution was involved in this.
Mr. Zhang was not demoted. His tough attitude in the court yesterday frightened the courtiers.
No one has ever seen such a ruthless Master Zhang.
In addition, after communicating with the emperor in private, the emperor wanted to kill him, but he could not send some wrong information, so he could only support Zhang Liang.
Because the imperial court provided money to support the continuation of the renovation project, the civil and military expenses of the Manchu Dynasty and the emperor's harem were all halved, and the salaries of officials were reduced. The officials dared not speak out, and put all their hatred on Zhang Liang.
One incident offended everyone in the world, and Zhang Liang became famous.
Mr. Zhang was on pins and needles every day, worried about what problems might arise from this huge gamble, and wanted to have a drink with Bai Song to complain.
This move of his was to put aside his official pretensions and treat Bai Song as a very close personal friend, someone who bound the two of them together.
He even thought about which of his granddaughters were good-looking at the right age and would be best given to Bai Song as his concubine.
Only getting married can make two people more tightly bound.
As a result, Lord Shangshu's servant came to deliver the message in person, and Bai Song actually rejected Lord Shangshu's request.
Because Bai Song encountered a new problem - how to build his son's palace?
That's right, it's the palace.
The emperor gave him a royal palace, which occupied a quarter of Changlefang. It was the largest palace in Chang'an City besides the royal gardens.
But the palace is an empty shell, with only land and no buildings.
The emperor gave the palace to Bai Song and asked Bai Song to build it himself, and he had to pay for the construction of the palace himself. This was a different way to make Bai Song bleed.
The palace given by the emperor is not a private residence. It is okay if the prince does not commit any crime, but if he does, the court will take it back.
Li Shimin's intention was obvious. The bank affairs made it difficult for him, and he also wanted Bai Song to make it difficult.
How much does it cost to build a palace? The cost cannot be calculated.
But the first house in Youzhou in Jixian County was said to have cost nearly 80,000 taels of silver and took three years to build.
Moreover, the gardens of the previous dynasty at that time had lower prices and lower costs.
Again, in remote Youzhou, labor costs and construction material costs are also lower.
The palace's land was larger than the house in Youzhou, and Bai Song's scalp was numb at this cost.
I'm afraid I won't be able to come if I don't have two hundred thousand taels.
Where did Bai Song get so much money?
The bank is losing money to make money, but it is not time to harvest.
The bamboo paper is drizzle, a little fussy, not enough to fill the gaps between teeth.
He made some money from the renovation of Youzhou West City, but the money did not belong to Bai Song alone. The relationship network he established was a money-sucking black hole, and managing relationships cost money everywhere.
There is even less food in Youzhou's fields. This is a humanitarian charity project. The purpose is to lead the people to get rich, not to make money for themselves.
The Bai Song Dynasty had never had any involvement in the oil fields in the northern grasslands, but thinking about it, it was clear that before entering the industrial age, the use of oil was limited to making paint, fuel, glue, etc., and there was not much money to be made.
If he wants to build a palace for his son, he can even sell the house in Youzhou for a fraction of a cent.
The key emperor gave a time limit, only one year.
Bai Song panicked. He had never been so eager for silver since time travel.
The land used for the Prince's Mansion includes the boundaries of the Prince Consort's Mansion, which means that once the Prince's Mansion is built, even the Prince Consort's Mansion must be demolished.
From now on, the Bai Song family will have to rely on their son for their livelihood.
One year is also very tight. Even if you have enough money, you still have to work overtime to finish it.
Li Shimin didn't give Bai Song a chance to breathe. That afternoon, he sent his father, the best architect in the palace, to the Prince Consort's Mansion to discuss with Bai Song and produce the royal palace's hot stamps within a week.
Just to make a mold, the master designer asked for five hundred taels of silver and walked away, saying that the labor was not included, only the cost of materials for ironing the sample.
Designer Fu left, and Bai Song hurried out.
He was going to borrow money and start construction as soon as possible, otherwise the one-year construction period would not be completed.
A time traveler, after two years of living, still had to borrow money, Bai Song felt ridiculous when he thought about it.
But when he thought about it carefully, Bai Song was still very proud of himself. It was the same for all parents. His son's scenery was more satisfying than his own. Building a noble palace for his son openly and honestly felt like an exciting and accomplished thing. things.
On the way to borrow money, Bai Song's first stop was the Yu family.
Yu Shinan was the master of the Bai Song Dynasty. When his apprentice encountered difficulties, he borrowed money from the master's family and did not let outsiders talk about it.
And the relationship is close, so it’s easy to talk.
But Bai Song didn't know that Mr. Yu was an incorruptible official and that even his family members could not make money.
Now that Mr. Yu has retired, the Yu family's life is even more frugal. How can there be money for Bai Song?
At the first stop, Bai Song came to nothing and was too embarrassed to borrow money. However, Yu Qingqing chased Bai Song after he left and tried to give him some of her small jewelry.
Of course Bai Song refused. The little girl reluctantly said goodbye to Bai Song, and even said that she would go to the Prince Consort's Mansion to play with him in a few days.
At the second stop, Bai Song found Changsun Huan and told him that Changsun Huan was the second son of the Changsun family and a well-known dandy in the capital. He should have some spare money.
It turned out to be in vain again.
Changsun Huan is no longer a dandy in the capital. He changed his gender after graduating from Yongxing Academy. Now he is concentrating on coping with this year's provincial examination. He wants to take part in the imperial examination under a pseudonym. He will study hard and never leave the door. The key is Changsun Wuji. Although he was in charge, he was not given any pocket money. It didn't even take a few minutes to meet Bai Song.
At the third stop, Bai Song found Lu Yao. He heard that Lu Yao was already the Minister of Household Affairs, had a prosperous official career, was on the right track, and was the most outstanding among all the students. He also truly inherited Mr. Yu's instructions and became the successor of Jianghuai Group, at least on the surface.
Bai Song thought to himself that Lu Yao should be rich.
In the past, they were not dealt with, but college life has long connected them. Although they are not connected, they all know in their hearts that they are one of their own.
When Bai Song has difficulties, his classmates will not fail to help.
Lu Yao met Bai Song and had a drink with Bai Song. After learning about Bai Song's predicament, he felt helpless.
Now Lu Yao is very restrained and cherishes his feathers. Although he works as an errand in the household department, he has never done anything extraordinary. He relies on his monthly salary to have his own house and a wife, but he only has enough money. Daily expenses.
No way, Bai Song still couldn't borrow the money.
Coincidentally, the two of them came to the Hualou Yingyue Tower where they met for the first time while having a drink.
The conversation between the two was heard by Miss Mingyue who was hiding aside.
Mingyue didn't want to see Lu Yao, but she had been looking forward to Mr. Bai coming to find her.
She waited for a month and didn't see Mr. Bai. She felt extremely disappointed. When she heard that Mr. Bai was in trouble, she ignored her restraint and secretly stuffed the jewelry box she had saved for several years into Bai Song's clothes.
Bai Song didn't even notice. He took off his coat at Yingyue Tower on the way, and after walking a long way away from Yingyue Tower, he discovered that there was an extra box inside the clothes.
When I opened it, I saw it was all gold, silver and jewelry!
Any one piece can be worth hundreds of taels.
