After leaving the palace, Li Ke pondered for a while. The construction work on the square and monument outside Mingde Gate was nearing completion. However, according to the work prepared by Li Ke, some construction work was still needed outside Mingde Gate.
Chang'an City does not have a moat, which is different from most cities in ancient times. The main reason is that the money consumed to maintain a moat surrounding 84 square kilometers is too huge. Another reason is that the construction of Chang'an City formed an eight-water river surrounding Chang'an. The pattern is the natural barrier of Chang'an City.
Therefore, there is no need for a moat here. There is also an aqueduct outside Mingde Gate, directly south of Chang'an City, opposite Zhuque Street. However, the aqueduct is located at the corner of the city walls on the south and west sides of Chang'an City, that is, Hepingfang and Yongyangfang. location.
The terrain in the south of the entire city is relatively flat. The tower of Mingde Gate can be used for viewing ceremonies. From the main entrance of Mingde Gate, there is a huge square, and the Monument to the Heroes of the Tang Dynasty in the center of the square is located on the central axis of Chang'an City. .
The entire square is estimated to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.
In this era, when such a large area of square is hardened, only one person stands out.
In addition to the square, a straight road also needs to be built along the bottom of the city wall.
These have already started construction, but some modifications are still needed. For example, an viewing platform will need to be built next to the city wall.
In fact, Chang'an has been the capital of several dynasties since ancient times, but Chang'an is actually not very suitable for being a capital. It is said that success depends on the terrain and failure depends on the terrain. As the traditional capital, Chang'an is located in the Guanzhong Plain, which is within a suitable distance from the entire Tang Dynasty, especially the control distance to the inland is closer.
But it also has shortcomings. When Chang'an became the capital, a large population gathered in Chang'an, including the Guanzhong Plain, and such a large population put a huge pressure on food in ancient times.
All food near Chang'an City relies on water transportation, which means that if Chang'an City is attacked by the enemy and the water transportation is cut off, Chang'an City will be short of food in an instant.
This is a huge hidden danger. In fact, after the Anshi Rebellion broke out, this hidden danger was immediately exposed.
Looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, except for the locust plague and other natural disasters in the early years of Zhenguan that caused victims to appear in important grain-producing areas, since then, in the food supply of the entire Datang Dynasty, only the Guannei Road has been the most food-deficient, and even Longnan has been required. Youdao and other places transport grain to Guannai Road.
It is conceivable that even the food grown in these places in Gansu in later generations would need to be replenished within the pass. It is obvious how lacking in food transportation this place is.
Therefore, even if a strategic reserve warehouse is established, the reserve warehouse will be a very important place.
The storage warehouses near Chang'an City will be divided into three places, all located within the protection of the city wall.
Of course, Li Ke felt that if the Tang Dynasty could still be attacked by the enemy near Chang'an City in the future, then it is estimated that the Tang Dynasty would not be far from being destroyed.
The festival of October 1st is very important to Li Ke, so he does not allow any problems to arise. It is also very important to Datang.
Heading to Pingkangfang, Li Ke went to the original Huiyue Building, now the Huiyue Grand Theater. Ever since Li Shimin and the others performed here, subsequent performances have been full, and the one who was once just a hook-up girl An Ying has now become a hot new star in Chang'an City!
You know, those who are pursuing An Ying now...are all rich people! The most guaranteed ones are the rich! The influence of "Prostitute" has been highlighted in Chang'an City. You can hear discussions about "Prostitute" in many streets and alleys.
This further extended to patriotism and hatred of the East Turks.
Especially those scholars who are around fifteen or sixteen to twenty years old are the focus of discussion, and even private traffickers and lackeys are discussed a lot.
The current Huiyue Grand Theater is not open to ordinary people, but ordinary people still know the stories inside through various circumstances. The simplest and most straightforward one is the storyteller Li Ke launched through the teahouse two years ago.
These storytellers have mastered the entire story line of "The Prostitute" and narrated the entire story with great emotion. Whenever they tell something exciting, you can hear applause in the teahouse.
The Huiyue Grand Theater is also very busy now, mainly cultivating new people. Just as Li Ke thought, a large number of hooks have joined in. Why? Nothing but profit!
An Ying is now even more famous in Chang'an City than those oirans. She used to be just a young lady in a small hook, and everyone could kiss her, but now she is more famous than the oirans in the third building!
The daily reward of silver is a large number, not to mention the invisible status in other aspects. The shop owner of the Goulan where An Ying once worked is no longer in the flesh business, and the original young lady is singing songs all day long. , a large number of literati flocked to him.
This is the effect of fame!
But the basis of all this made An Ying feel even more indifferent.
In other words, many wealthy businessmen are now willing to marry her back as a concubine, but An Ying is truly as calm as water, without others, and has experienced too much.
Just like that sentence, I watched him build a tall building, watched him entertain guests, and watched his building collapse.
She had been ups and downs in the hook bar for a long time, and she knew very well who brought her to this day. Although those people seemed to hold her high, she knew that all of this was like that rootless duckweed. Dreamlike.
"Your Highness." When she saw Li Ke, An Ying saluted Li Ke respectfully. Among these people, the only one worthy of her respect was His Highness.
If it weren't for the fact that her body was in ruins, she would have offered herself a pillow.
"Teaching newbies?" Li Ke smiled. All he could bring out was a book on self-cultivation of actors and descriptions of some actors that later generations have read in the Internet information age. That's all. More in-depth He didn't know much either.
Books about this aspect cannot be taken out directly. There are many examples and names in them, which need to be changed by Li Ke, but where does he have time? With all that time, he might as well compile some technical books.
So acting skills... let people of this era develop wildly. And these hook-up ladies have a rich life experience and have experienced countless joys, sorrows and joys, and they are not stage frightened. After all, a young lady who can drive with a group of men in public, does she care about how many people are watching below?
In this era, it is normal for someone like Li Ke to casually confront Li Changge and Liu Qingchan and do it hastily.
