The land pre-sale is divided into four phases, and tomorrow is the first phase.
Zhao An had prepared the entrustment a long time ago, so many merchants from the capital came here today. In addition, the pre-sale hall also provided a lot of fruit milk tea, as well as strange and delicious pastries, and everyone was even more excited.
The people arranged by Qian Yu explained the land terms, and the businessmen and noble disciples had a new understanding of the so-called pre-sale.
Xu Ruqing paid a pre-purchase fee of 10,000 taels on the spot and allocated fifty acres of land.
"The little girl feels that the new city has great potential. When it is built in the future, the literary club can be moved there, and the little girl can also settle here."
"Miss Xu wants to live in Xincheng? I'll buy it too!"
"I want it too!"
"Don't grab it, leave a good place for me, I want to be next to Miss Xu's residence!"
Looking at the chaotic scene, Zhao An and Qian Yu were dumbfounded.
Is this celebrity effect?
Mud, if I had known earlier, I should have invited more talented women to come to the stage.
The area close to Xu Cainnu's pre-purchase land has been bought. These noble young masters are not short of money. They can give you thousands of gold. The most outrageous thing is that some shameless people want to contract more land. If they don't do it, Yu Zhenzhen really couldn't suppress them.
You know, the first phase of pre-sale has not yet started, and there are already 20,000 taels of gold piled in the warehouse, plus an additional hundreds of thousands taels, which is equivalent to two million taels of silver.
Zhao An sighed, saying that he would be in trouble with anyone who said Daxia had no money.
However, most of them are taken up by nobles and aristocratic families, and ordinary people have basically no chance to participate.
Now Xincheng is playing the same game as future real estate. Businessmen buy land to build houses and then sell them. The premise is that unfinished buildings are not allowed. Then the empress will issue special laws for Xincheng and real estate businessmen.
In addition, in the sales center lobby, Zhao An saw some sneaky figures, needless to say, they were sent by Chen to investigate.
Qian Yu said: "Aren't you worried that Mr. Chen will also come to buy land?"
"Buy?" Zhao An sneered,
Will Chen buy it?
They only steal!
Furthermore, the Chen family covets the throne. Once successful, the entire Daxia will belong to the Chen family, so how can they come to buy land.
Qian Yu suddenly realized that after all, everything he was doing now was to pave the way for His Majesty, and it was still uncertain who would live and who would die.
"Sir, no one is coming to the house."
Suddenly, a subordinate hurriedly communicated.
Zhao An gave Qian Yu a look, then went up to the second floor to watch the show alone.
The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue and several officials clamored, "The new city needs to formulate new tax laws. General Qianyu also needs to consider the country."
Xincheng is so profitable that these gas rats will come here just because they smell it.
Qian Yu held the long knife on his waist and looked at him coldly, "Are you talking to me?"
The Secretary of the Household Department had a serious expression on his face, "My young prince, Daxia's treasury is currently empty, and your majesty needs money for payment. Does your young prince want to monopolize the income of the new city?"
"Absurd! I built the new city from scratch and built it day by day. At that time, refugees flocked to Gyeonggi and your Ministry of Household Affairs couldn't get out a penny. In the end, Your Majesty took out money from the internal funds to provide disaster relief. Now that I see that there is money, Are you here to take a share of the pie because you think my sword is not sharp?"
Qian Yu's eyes were round and murderous.
Shangshu Hubu and others were immediately frightened out of their wits.
This young prince was the emperor's confidant. If he really chopped off their heads, he would at most be giving Chen Guogong an assist in attacking the imperial power.
Thinking of this, Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance became timid and began to flatter him with a smile on his face.
But no matter what he said, Qian Yu refused to listen. Finally, he became impatient and drew his sword out of its sheath, "Hey! If you keep messing around, I will chop you down!"
"Hug, I'm sorry, I'm leaving right now..."
The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue covered his black gauze hat and ran away with all the officials. He only regretted that his parents had given him two legs.
The embarrassment made the noble young men laugh, a little heartless.
However, this matter will obviously not go well. The Minister of Household Affairs was promoted by Chen Guogong from the minister, and he will inform Chen Guogong after he returns.
So Qian Yu immediately returned to the second floor to discuss countermeasures with Zhao An.
Zhao An said: "If you tell His Majesty that you are willing to hand over 50% of the land transfer fee, Your Majesty will also have a way to deal with it."
"I'll go right away."
Qianyu came and went in a hurry with a slap on his forehead.
After he left, Prince Ning and Xu Ruqing came over. The former had a smile on his face, like a good old man.
Zhao An stood up, bowed, and called Wang Ye in a neutral tone.
Prince Ning was overjoyed: "I finally met Mr. Zhou. Mr. Zhou's land pre-sale is good. With the potential of the new city, it will be enough to rival the capital in the future."
"The prince is very complimentary. The official was only temporarily brought in by the young prince to make suggestions. Now everything in the new city is in the hands of the young prince."
"Yes, I am a bit mean-spirited. The young prince gave me a good piece of land. After it is built in the future, I will be able to live a long life."
Prince Ning was talking to himself, raising his wine glass, as if he were facing an old friend, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.
I have to say that his appearance is very seductive. If I didn't know what he was planning behind his back, I would have wanted to make a true friendship with him.
Xu Ruqing asked: "According to the new city's plan, just the pre-sale of land can catch up with the court's tax revenue for one year."
Prince Ning also looked over curiously. He had never heard of such a thing. It seemed that there must be a secret to success.
Zhao An smiled mysteriously, "It includes a lot. To put it simply, we have the right time, right place, right people, and it's a high-end route."
New Town is different from other state capitals. It has a very high starting point. After all, which city has built cement roads from the beginning, not to mention kiln-made red brick houses. From the very beginning, New Town has not started on the same starting line as other cities. The heritage of the capital city is far from comparable to other places. Anyone who is not an idiot will know that the new city will become the second capital city. In the future, the emperor may even move the capital if his brain twitches.
So Zhao An asked Qian Yu to leave a large area in the north of the new city. If the empress came to be interested one day, he could also build her an extremely luxurious new inner city.
"Mr. Zhou is a great talent. I have a hunch that the housing prices in the new city will be much higher than those in the capital in the future."
Prince Ning's eyes were very vicious.
Zhao An couldn't help but look at him and said, "The prince and Miss Xu should buy more land. It will be difficult to acquire it in the future."
Xu Ruqing rolled her eyes when she heard this. She had invested all her wealth in order to act as a trustee, and someone was still not satisfied.
Fortunately, Zhao An promised to give her the bookstore business and a piece of land for the literary society, so she can sit back and relax in the future.
Compared with the bustle of the new city, Chen Guogong's mansion seemed a bit deserted, and the atmosphere was indescribably tense.
Because just now, Qian Yu's land pre-sale plan caught the Chen family by surprise, and their strategy of draining their internal funds failed.
Who could have imagined that a small refugee settlement would turn into a mountain of gold and silver in just a short period of time!
