Chapter 545: Dare to make a military order

Li Chao and Li Chengqian's father were stepping on it, and they were so happy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Shimin is here.

One with a very dark face leaned over.

"My family, I'm here again. What are you guys doing here? Could it be that this is a threshing machine? Ouch, yes, the prince has learned to step on the threshing machine. Well, not bad. ”

This face came over without paying attention, startling Li Chao.

"Ouch, Your Majesty is here."

Li Chengqian was even more frightened, he couldn't lift his feet, but he was directly lifted by the pedal, and Li Chao hurriedly hugged him down. Li Chengqian was very afraid of Li Shimin, and when he was discovered by his father, he lowered his head to the side as if he had done something wrong.

"Well, this machine looks good, I'll try it and see if it's really that magical."

Li Chao bent down and picked up a bundle of rice and handed it to Li Shimin, while also pointing out how to step on it and how to fight. Li Shimin tried it a few times, and it was quite easy to step on, somewhat similar to the waterwheel that people stepped on, but it was much easier than the waterwheel. I didn't pay much attention at first, I didn't hold my hands tightly, and I was taken into the barn with a small handful.

After a few beats, I took out the handful of rice and looked at it carefully, and the grains did come down, and they were extremely clean.

"Ouch, it's really good, it's easy to use."

Several other prime ministers also stood aside and watched the whole process.

"It's quite dexterous."

"Three or two hits to beat a handful of rice so clean, a machine can stand two people at the same time, someone takes the grass, if you don't stop, well, you can beat an acre in half a day."

"In this way, it is ten times better than human fighting!"

Li Shimin hit a few times, and then stopped. He came over today, and he didn't really come to experience this threshing machine, he had more important things to do to find Li Chao.

"Let's go, let's talk."

Entering the house, Li Chao asked people to prepare tea and melons and fruits, and then asked people to retreat.

In the hall, only the emperor and eight prime ministers remained, well, and a nervous prince. He also thought that his father came from Chang'an to teach him that he hadn't done his homework well.

"I've seen the excerpt of your capital move. Where does the money come from to build a new capital? Li Shimin went straight to the point and didn't beat around the bush.

Over there, Chen Shuda followed, "The 10 million new commercial goods added by the imperial court have not yet entered Taicang, and they are already useful, so it is impossible to pull out a single cent." ”

Gao Shilian also said, "The matter of rectifying the Buddhist temple cannot be rushed for a while, and it is not possible to get much money for the time being." ”

Li Shimin and a group of prime ministers came up and blocked several roads.

A group of people are all staring at Li Chao, where else can you get the money from?

Li Chao is very tidy.

Since he dared to propose the construction of a new capital, of course he was prepared. Just brainless suggestions, without giving solutions, anyone will mention. Only when there is a practical plan to support it can that the opinion be useful.

"Your Majesty, in fact, the construction of the new capital does not require a penny from the imperial court!"

"Hey, Wen Yuan's joke is good." The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile.

Du Ruhui reminded Li Chao, "We must not use a large number of people's forces. ”

"Neither can we levy much to the people." Fang Xuanling also said.

In their minds, it was impossible to build a new capital without spending money. Yang Jian built Daxing City Daxing Palace, which is now Chang'an City and Taiji Palace, but it took a long time and cost a lot of money. Even until the ninth year of the Great Cause, the city walls of the outer city of Chang'an had just been completed.

In the decades of the Great Sui Dynasty, Chang'an City was built one after another, and until the Sui Dynasty was destroyed, Chang'an City was not really completed, and many places were still barren, but they were just circled.

Yang Guang later built the eastern capital of Luoyang, which was built quickly, but it cost a lot of money, and there were more servants.

Li Chao shook his head.

"Your Majesty, the minister just said that Chang'an is no longer suitable to serve as the capital of the Tang Dynasty, so a new capital needs to be built so that the imperial court can better manage the thousands of miles of the Tang Dynasty. But the minister didn't say that he was going to move to the new capital soon, and the new capital would be built in two or three years. ”

"Are you going to build it for ten or twenty years?"

"Of course, we don't need to, we can divide the new capital into several construction periods according to our needs. For example, in this phase of the project, we built the palace city and the imperial city, which is the residence of His Majesty and his concubines, and is also the place where His Majesty works and governs. The imperial city is where the government of the capital is located. These two should be built first and listed as the first phase of the project. As for the outer city, this is the place where the people live, the place where the merchant market and so on, these can be built a little first, and it is not necessary to build them all at once. ”

Li Shimin nodded when he listened, this is also a plan.

But, speaking of which, if you build it in ten phases, don't you also have to ask for money, where does the money come from?

"Money? As long as the operation is good, you don't need the imperial court to spend a penny, you can have a brand new capital, and you can still make money. Li Chao replied with a smile.

In later generations, there was a popular word called urban management.

To put it bluntly, it is the government that sells the land.

Of course, it's not that simple.

Urban management is indeed a science, and local governments use the city as the capital and the carrier to operate. This is just like what many cities in later generations like to develop new urban areas.

The policy first expropriated a large area of land, usually on the edge of the city, which is some farmland and vegetable plots or some dilapidated abandoned factories, and the land is taken down cheaply and planned.

Make a drawing, do a few designs, and then prepare the land, what three links and five flats.

In the end, there is a tender, what kind of market to be built here, a residential area to be built there, a commercial area to be built there, and then what kind of streets, sewers, and so on.

Anyway, every project can be tendered.

Those people spend a lot of money to bid, bid for the bid, and pay a deposit, and then have to bring funds for development, that is, advance payment. At the same time, the new city is built, and the government can sell the land again, sell the corner land, and sell it to developers to build houses and shops, and so on.

In short, good planning, good operation, and good capital introduction are indeed the drama of the white wolf with empty gloves. Eventually, large swaths of houses were erected, a whole new city was built, and the government had more goods in its hands.

Li Shimin didn't quite understand.

It's human language, why can't you understand even a piece?

Shouldn't the government recruit people and then plan and supervise the construction of the new capital, how did it become a profitable business?

"Of course, this can be seen as a business, but it's just a bigger business. For example, if this new capital is built, it will be the center of Datang from now on, right? This house in the capital will definitely be expensive in the future, right? Now the imperial court sells the land to those merchants who build houses, for example, Xindu is also one hundred and eight squares, and we sell the land of one square and give it to those merchants to build houses, and they build houses and sell them to the residents of Beijing, they make money, and the court also makes money. ”

"For another example, when we build a commercial market, we can directly contract the entire project to the businessmen and pay them money, or we can directly package the project and sell it to them. When the market is built, won't the shops, facades, and workshops in it all be able to sell for money or collect rent? ”

"Or, when we build a new capital, we can completely break the current pattern of the market, in the outer city, no longer build a square wall, but open streets, on both sides of the street, the houses are directly built into shop fronts, rent or sell, this is not also profitable?"

What Li Chao said was just a few casual analogies, and the specific operation must be more complicated, but it is such a model.

There are good resources, and it really doesn't cost money.

"And now the population density in the Xiangdeng area is far less than that of Guanzhong, and there is no land in Guanzhong, but there is still a lot of surplus there."

Everyone couldn't keep up with the rhythm for a while.

"I always feel that it is mysterious and mysterious, and it doesn't cost anything to repair a new one?"

"It's unprecedented."

They all thought it was incredible, but for Li Chao, it couldn't be simpler.

Now there are fewer people and more land in Xiangdeng, and the price of land is cheap.

The imperial court chose a place to build a new capital, and with the way the imperial court did things in this era, what capital was needed. It would be nice to expropriate the land, relocate the people, and give them some land in exchange.

The imperial court made a plan, and this new capital city would be expensive. There is no need to worry that there will be no one in the new capital, and when the time comes, the palace, the officials in the capital, the army, and the families of these officials will all move to the new capital. With so many people, of course, the need will be great, and the businessmen will not come.

With a large number of people, you need a lot of houses. If there is a demand for daily necessities, there will be a market, and then there will be a lot of markets, shops, etc.

To build a house, build a market, and build a shop, the land can increase in value a hundredfold, and the imperial court does not need to build it by itself, and it is worry-free and profitable to contract or sell it directly to merchants.

With the money earned in these aspects, and then invite merchants and craftsmen to build the imperial palace and the imperial city, it will be a matter of course.

"Wen Yuan, are you really sure that in just three or five years, you can build a new capital without spending the court's money?"

"As long as His Majesty is willing to support it, it is not impossible to make money."

"It doesn't matter if you make money or not, but the imperial court really doesn't have the money to build a new capital."

"If Your Majesty trusts me, just leave it to me."

Li Shimin looked at Li Chao and always felt that Li Chao's move was a bit too deliberate. When it comes to building a new capital, he is now taking the initiative to solicit this errand.

"Wen Yuan, you don't want to run to Shannan to be lazy, right?" Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, you are wronged, if you are confident that you can complete the construction of a new capital that is not inferior to Chang'an City in three or five years without spending a penny of the imperial court, then I will give it to Xian."

"Wenyuan, don't brag!" The eldest grandson Wuji said on the side.

"That's it, don't talk too much."

"Can you do it?"

Li Shimin was also made angry by Li Chao's words, and you are too full of what you said.

"Wen Yuan, you are going to make a military order!"

"It's okay to set up a military order!" Li Chao looked very bad.

After staying in the capital for a while, Li Chao also discovered that Li Shimin didn't seem to have any intention of letting him return to Shuofang. also said before that Li Chao needed to stay in Shuofang for five years, but in a blink of an eye, Li Chao was pressed in the capital every day.

The three important positions of Shuo Fang Jiedu Envoy, Jingguang Yin, and the Secretary of the Military Department were not removed, but he was not allowed to be the actual director, but he was given the title of the left servant of the school inspection book, and the title of a flat chapter matter, and ran all day long in the political affairs hall to discuss matters.

has become the actual prime minister.

As a result, Li Chao was also a little helpless.

It's nothing to be the prime minister of the court, after all, the prime minister is not one of him, eight. But what Dad said was right, he was too young, and it was not a matter for him to stay in the center too early.

It's still easier to be local, and Shuofang Jiedu may not be able to go back to be a place, so change places.

It just so happens that the construction of the new capital, Li Chao feels that it is also very necessary for Datang.

Historically, Li Yuan and Li Shimin often went to Luoyang to eat mixed rice, and Li Zhiwu Zetian simply took Luoyang as the new capital. After arriving in Xuanzong, Chang'an City was breached several times, and the Son of Heaven often had to escape, which was also a record-break.

In the late Tang Dynasty, the Son of Heaven in Chang'an looked east every day, waiting for the southeast to pay taxes into Beijing.

Although Chang'an is the ancient capital of several dynasties, it is indeed unable to adapt to the pattern of the Tang Dynasty.

Going to Shandong to build a new capital and mixing for three or five years is both relaxed and leisurely, which is very good.

Li Shimin looked at Li Chao and always felt that Li Chao was going to go out to be lazy. But what Li Chao said is indeed very tempting, without the imperial court paying a penny, it will take three or five years to build a new capital for the imperial court, which is too tempting.

ps: Recommend my friend Bihuo's new book "The Strongest Pretending System in the City", the author's name is "Bihuo", it's really a super good book that starts pretending to be forced from a pen name!

I recommend a science fiction book to my friends again, "Bones" is set to be reborn in the wasteland, there are mutated creatures, but it is not a wasteland text, and it is mainly a battle between humans...... (To be continued.) )
