Chapter 901: No, I don't say it
The news came quickly.
Although the process of investigation is very difficult.
There is a group of businessmen who have quietly come to Dingxing County, if not for anything else, but to buy everything that can be purchased.
Jingshi and Xishan suddenly had hundreds of thousands more people.
And these hundreds of thousands of people are still salary.
The bulk commodities of the capital had already begun to inflation, and the prices of grains and many prices had begun to rise slightly, but even so, the innumerable inflow of people, coupled with the large amount of silver that appeared on the market, and the issuance of silver bills, and the increase in the spending power of those who had salaries, prices had already continued to rise.
However, this kind of price rise cannot be transmitted to a remote small county like Dingxing County in time.
Just now...... It seems that someone has spotted a business opportunity.
In Jingshi, the same pound of grain, the price is five yuan, after the threshing, it is between eight and ten yuan, even if it is such a price, for the people of Jingshi, it is nothing, because even a laborer, you can get one or two taels of silver a month, the average salary, around one thousand and five yuan, there are many people, even women can work, not to mention, ordinary laborers, lunch at noon.
If you are poorer, you can use cheaper sweet potatoes and potatoes as an alternative.
But these hundreds of thousands of people, not only laborers, but also craftsmen, their consumption power is even more amazing.
Dingxing County traffic isolation, although there is an official road, but the essence of the official road, is only used to pass the paperwork, but it is built of rammed earth, usually good, from this Dingxing County to the new city, dozens of miles, with a carriage, it takes three days and three nights to go back and forth, if it is earlier, people carry the burden of transportation, it takes five days and five nights of round-trip time, a person, can pick seventy or eighty pounds of grain is good, you still have to pay for this labor money, but also need to let him eat and drink along the way, which is all calculated, not only time-consuming and laborious, the money is all spent on transportation.
Horse-drawn carriages are now popular in the new city, and the capacity of the carriages is amazing. But the price of this carriage is very expensive, if it is a muddy road like the official road in the past, it is harmful to the carriage, the depreciation cost of this carriage is amazing, and because the road is muddy and difficult to walk, the carriage can not go fast, back and forth, horse material and manpower, is also a lot.
This Dingxing County, since it has always been, has been so obscure.
Even if he is close to Jingshi, he is still a poor country under the previous traffic environment.
Can ...... now
Suddenly......
The situation has changed.
The road is paved, the best asphalt road, and it is six lanes side by side, not afraid of any rain and snow, no mud, a load-loaded carriage, almost a day round-trip.
A day round trip, what does this mean, it means that the deal is negotiated in Dingxing County early in the morning, and immediately ordered someone to load the car, if it is faster, it can arrive at the warehouse in the new city at noon, even if it is a little slower, it can also arrive before dark on the same day.
In Jingshi, even if it is from the outer city to the inner city, if there is sometimes congestion, it will take this time.
Road......
Old Lady Fang was dumbfounded.
This way, how can it have such a role?
He looked at Zhou Wu, Zhou Wu was his confidant, he had been working in the Fang family for generations, and he couldn't trust him the most.
"Is the information reliable?"
"Reliable!" Zhou Wu said categorically: "However, the news has not spread yet, not only our Fang family...... I heard that just a few hours ago, someone went to Yang's house and found Old Man Yang......"
Old Lady Fang squinted: "What?" ”
"The Yang family has a large piece of land, all of which are close to the road, and some people want to buy his land, and the price is ...... Two hundred taels per acre, just signed a contract, sold more than 100 acres. ”
Old Lady Fang was taken aback.
Usually in Dingxing County, an acre of land is only twenty taels of silver, and the price has risen more than ten times between changing hands.
"He sold?"
"Sold!" Zhou Wudao: "The Yang family is crazy with joy, more than 20,000 taels of silver, digging in the field, I can't earn it for a few lifetimes, this news is covered, kept secret, if it is not because I want to sign a contract, I have to ask the county scribe Liu to be a guarantee, I am afraid that no one will know...... As for whether there are any merchants who are talking to people about buying land and collecting grain, I don't know. Anyway, what the villain knows is that now in Dingxing County, even if it is land that does not have a road frame, the price will rise, and the price of grain is now much higher than the secret price...... Also heard...... There are many people who want to set up a workshop in Dingxing County......"
Zhou Wudao: "Old lady, do you remember? At the beginning, Ouyang County Zun cleared the land and found a lot of borderless land, which was directly copied into the government. ”
Old Lady Fang's face was uncertain.
At that time, because the land was barren and there was no output, the original landlord heard that the land was cleared and had to pay taxes, so he did not come to claim it, and the result was directly confiscated and confiscated by the government.
Then...... Everyone doesn't pay attention to this, some wasteland is just a bottomless pit of money after paying taxes.
But Old Lady Fang felt more and more strange: "You go on." ”
"A scribe received an official letter, saying that it was a large amount of wasteland owned by Xishan Jianye, and in the future, a large number of workshops were planned to be built, and a ...... would be developed Dingxing New Town ...... It is said that it is the land of Jingshi, which is too expensive, but our Dingxing County, compared with Jingshi, is like not wanting silver, just pick it casually, master, there is a new city, one acre of land, it has reached 25,000 taels of silver, but the Yang family has 20,000 taels of silver, sold 100 acres of land, and is crazy, think about it......"
Old Lady Fang gasped and felt dizzy.
Grain...... In the future, prices will skyrocket, and in the future, there will be a huge surge in grain planting.
In addition, the Fang family also has an oil mill, an earthen kiln brewing workshop, and ......
"Our Fang family has a lot of land, why doesn't anyone come to buy our land?"
The boss on the side was dumbfounded when he heard this, and couldn't help but say, "Dad, didn't you say that you have to guard the family business...... Is this an ancestral property, can't it be sold? ”
Old lady Fang's backhand was to slap the boss: "You know a fart, this time, that time." ”
Old Lady Fang's eyes lit up.
He suddenly understood something.
Now, this road connects Xincheng with Dingxing County, and Dingxing County is almost the same as connecting with Xincheng.
That's Jingshi, this Dingxing County, isn't it equivalent to becoming the outer city of Jingshi?
Zhou Wu couldn't help but say: "It's not a place, it's all so valuable, you have to rely on the road to make it." ”
Old Lady Fang said angrily: "I knew this was the case, this road should be repaired to our house." Either way, or not...... Now, don't make a noise about these things, but don't make a noise, boss, you have to find a way to buy some land, as well as the grain and oil in the county, and collect it if you can. ”
He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and suddenly the dragon spirit was fierce, and his face was ruddy: "Second brother, hurry up and find a way to go to the county, go to the county honor, prepare a courtesy, and ask them, this way...... If you can't repair it, you can't favor one over the other, our Fang family's land is in a remote village, how can we only take care of other people, not Fangjiabao. ”
"Ah......" The second child scratched his head: "I don't dare to go, last time I bumped into the county lord in front of him, saying that he was tyrannical." ”
"Brute!" Old lady Fang jumped to her feet and scolded: "What do you know, it is precisely because you contradicted him that I asked you to go, this is called turning war into jade silk." ”
"Third child, you have to go to your in-laws' house, his family has land, it's by the road, someone must be looking for him secretly, go and inquire. The old man thinks this matter is too mysterious...... It's better to inquire clearly. ”
"Fourth, you hurry up to Beijing and go to see Master Liu, he and our family are good friends, you have to ask him, if you repair the letter, I'm afraid it's too late, you go in person, go back quickly."
After the order, Mrs. Fang sat down steadily, he had a hunch that a storm was coming, this storm would make the entire Dingxing County completely reshuffle, what is the future pattern, whether the Yang family is still the famous Yang family, it depends on these few days.
"Tell me to go down, from today onwards, all the dealers cheer up, if there are businessmen passing by, please come to the house to sit, the old man is an approachable person, the most hospitable, the so-called friends from afar, happy, come, good tea and good wine at home, are prepared."
"Oh, by the way, to the outside world, the old man is still seriously ill......" He squinted, like an old fox, and said lightly: "When people are sick, they are easy to be confused, so they will give those businessmen that they have an opportunity to take advantage of the changes in the Fang family, so they will come to visit one after another, and want to come and talk to the Fang family, Zhou Wu, you make a big show, and then go to the county to ask for a doctor......"
"Oh, oh."
Old lady Fang clenched her fists excitedly, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but hum openly: "The old man is here, why are the four doors wide open." Hey, you see Zhuge Liang is there again, don't fall for other people's tricks, wait for me to pass on an order first......"
At this singing, he shook his head and shook his head, put his hands behind his back, lay back on the sickbed, covered the quilt, and suddenly ...... He remembered something again, and turned over: "I'm a little hungry, I'll lie down later, come to Fu, go kill a chicken!" ”
…………
In Dingxing County, there is already an undercurrent.
Almost all of them tacitly grasped the business opportunities, and began to haunt here, inquiring about every news. And the gentry who began to notice something, also smelled something, but also silently, in this secret, countless transactions, quietly reached, some people sang empty city plans, some people set up a Hongmen banquet, and naturally some people set up a chain of plans.
After the road is built, the strong men who pay 30 yuan a day are full of regrets, and the days of earning money to subsidize their families are gone!
But......
People are gradually realizing that there is more to it than that...... And...... Wages are quietly rising...... Day-end!
………………
The first chapter is delivered, double the monthly pass, tearful, begging for a monthly pass.
