"Your Majesty, do you want to drink?" Seeing that he was surrounded by people of his own, the leader called in a low voice.
"Drink some iced rice wine." Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it. He had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he deliberately made time for it today.
Someone went to get rice wine. Zhu Yuanzhang continued to look around, turned around and asked: "It costs five cents per grid. How long will it take to get back the money invested?"
"It's impossible to expect to repay the cost of renting a stall. Based on the housing prices in Yingtian Mansion, it will cost Xiaqiu Village a lot of money to rent such a large area."
The head of the village told the truth that Xiaqiu Village directly occupied it, so theoretically it should pay for it.
Even if they cooperate with the palace, the palace cannot ignore the land money.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and continued to listen.
The director naturally had to say it: "In such a large place, only one-third of the area is divided into grids, and the other two-thirds are the real profitable shops.
All the street shops in Nanjing now have owners. If other businessmen want to open a shop, they can only buy it from someone else.
The number of stores that can be provided has not increased, but has pushed up operating costs.
All costs will eventually fall on the buyers, increasing the consumption costs of the people..."
The director first briefly talked about the current situation in Nanjing. Houses are getting more and more expensive.
Then he explained to Zhu Yuanzhang the relationship between land value and cost of living, which is directly proportional to the population per unit area.
Then the remaining two-thirds of the land in Xiaqiu Village will be used to build shops and rent them to businessmen at a lower price than elsewhere.
The more important thing is that there are many stalls in one-third of the place here. There are many people coming to eat, which means there is a large flow of customers.
After eating, or those who came to eat go somewhere else, they may be able to buy what they need, and then they can consume it.
When people usually need something, they go to specialized stores to buy it and compare products.
When I got here, I happened to take a stroll and saw many shops. I probably thought about what I need at home and bought it.
It is a type of induced consumption, and shops naturally have many sales.
Like Jubiqi, he has the customer flow bonus of a lunch box restaurant. Just because someone eats a three-wen lunch box doesn't mean they make less money.
After finishing the meal, I looked up and saw Ju Biqi, wondering if there was less jealousy in the house? Buy some!
Similarly, Fuhua Building also has a passenger flow bonus from the library. Some officials are willing to go to the library to read books when they have a rest.
Or a wealthy businessman, feeling the atmosphere of culture, turns around and feels hungry. There is a restaurant opposite, so go in and eat, or let the restaurant deliver it.
"It turns out that the stalls costing five cents each are used to increase the number of people here. It's a good plan."
Zhu Yuanzhang served the wine and signaled to the chief. Of course, he was not toasting the chief, but the master behind him.
"Therefore, Your Majesty, our land in Yingtian Mansion cannot be sold easily. The population will increase and the houses will not be enough to live in. We will have to expand outwards.
Plan ahead, the roads should be wide, drainage should be good, and the houses should be orderly and not disorganized.
It cannot be that someone else applies to the government to buy a piece of land to build a house and then it is granted to him. The government must set aside a place to build houses together.
Like a place where migrant workers live, the house belongs to the court.
It can be rented but not sold, otherwise it will be impossible to suppress housing prices.
The money is slowly earned by the court, instead of being bought by other merchants to increase the price.
In the future, if enough money is made here, it will be used to build Chaotian Palace, which will contain..."
The head of the village also talked about his future plans to help Zhu Yuanzhang build Chaotian Palace. Then the stalls here will still be there, but the shops will be demolished.
At the same time, because this is a gathering place of culture and religion, the prices of surrounding houses are bound to rise sharply.
In fact, it doesn’t have to wait until then, it starts to rise now, because it is also lively here at night and no one is causing trouble anymore.
In the past, all the houses around me wanted to sell, and I was afraid that there would be a fight here at night.
What if a group of shady people breaks into your home? Only when the sun rises every day can I feel at ease.
Now there is no such worry and I can go out to eat at any time.
There are lights again at night, and market managers patrol the place.
If you want to sell something at home, it is right at your doorstep. It is very convenient to set up and close the stall.
Zhu Yuanzhang picked up a piece of sizzling beef and said, "In this case, Xiaqiu Village should buy the surrounding houses in advance!"
"Your Majesty, Xiaqiu Village does not need to make such money. Xiaqiu Village is not short of money. It just needs to guide the people to do something.
There are countless ways to make money in Xiaqiu Village. If you really do things for the sake of making money, Daming will be in trouble!
Money is a tool for Xiaqiu Village, a tool that can benefit more people.
The people collecting the dishes here, washing the dishes in the back, and cleaning are all slightly older women.
They cannot do too strenuous physical work, nor can they do technical work. There are too many people doing weaving work.
They can only do what they can at home, and the overall family income is reduced. "
The head of the village said that given the situation in the village, we don't want to make this money, otherwise the people who sold the house will find out in a blink of an eye that the house is valuable, and they will stab the backbone of Xiaqiu Village.
Zhu Yuanzhang put down his chopsticks and served another drink: "The easier it is to make money, the less concerned about making money. Do these people get paid enough?"
"Between eighteen cents and thirty cents, money is given according to time periods. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner periods are ten cents per time period, and each time period is one hour.
Other times, the fee is six cents per session, and if you want to work from morning to night, all sessions are available, which is not allowed.
They can work at most three of the busiest periods, and have to rest at other times because they are older. "
The manager explained how wages are distributed. There are periods when you can easily make less money, and there are periods when you are busy and make more money.
Of course, you can also work for only one period of time, depending on the situation at home.
"Okay, thirty cents is a lot, eighteen cents is fine, it's enough to buy rice, oil and salt."
Zhu Yuanzhang calculated and found that if he worked for three hours when he was not busy, eighteen cents would allow a family of five or six people to live normally.
This normal life includes eating meat occasionally, saving money, and making clothes for the children.
There are other laborers in the family, so the man's money can be kept.
He looked at the teenagers who were starting to cook there: "Your stall is..."
"The price will be lowered tomorrow. Your Majesty is here today, deliberately raising the price to drive people away.
The main purpose is to teach apprentices how to stir-fry, so that one day when they go out to work, they will be able to stir-fry in a big pot and become proficient in a small pot.
The master next to him is responsible for watching, and they will fry it for a while and feed it to the people who are off work.
I only manage meals during the noon period, which is the busiest and the weather is hot. When winter comes, I will cancel this meal. "
"Okay! After they finish their studies, they can open a small shop of their own, and they can write and do math, so they won't be hungry."
Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with this. Xiaqiu Village did not ask for money and always wanted to help more people.
The other businessmen nearby were not, probably because they were not as capable as the experts from Xiaqiu Village.
"Your Majesty, in fact, Xiaqiu Village wants to set up some schools to teach cooking.
Those who want to learn can pay the tuition fee directly and leave after learning, without having to work for Xiaqiu Village.
Those who have no money are just like these apprentices, but they are different. As long as they earn back their tuition fees, they are allowed to go out and work on their own. "
The district chief took the opportunity to mention the matter of running a school. Now that Ming Dynasty has a lot of iron, there is no shortage of pots for cooking.
In the current Ming Dynasty, there are few people cooking, and most snacks are fried, steamed, boiled, fried, etc.
The fifth update is completed. There is no news today. Thank you brothers and sisters for your support!
