412 financial resources are rolling
All the income from the sale of the title was filled into the treasury by Zhang Yan, and the originally empty treasury suddenly became solid, and more than 10,000 titles were all sold out.
As for the person who bought ten first-class earls at one time, Zhang Yan was most interested, if it weren't for the appearance of this person and making a move that dared to be the first in the world, he would not have driven so many wealthy businessmen to snap up the title.
But when Zhang Yan saw this person and asked him about some things, he realized that this qiē was all Mi Zhu working hard in secret.
On the same day, after Zhang Yan left Tancheng, Mi Zhu sent out invitations, inviting dozens of wealthy businessmen in Xuzhou to reveal the information that Zhang Yan was going to sell the title in advance.
However, the price offered by Zhang Yan was too high, and in the end, these rich businessmen hesitated, but Mi Zhu persuaded them one by one, and voluntarily took out 100,000 gold to supplement them, that is to say, these ten rich businessmen only need to pay 40,000 gold each to buy the title of first-class earl.
The top ten wealthy merchants are all shrewd people, and they are all very excited, so there is the feat of the top ten rich merchants jointly buying a first-class earl, and because they have been prepared, so in just a few days, all the funds are in place, and then under the escort of Mi Zhu, they went to Pengcheng.
When Zhang Yan learned the truth of the matter, he was grateful to his brother-in-law, this 100,000 gold. It is equivalent to Mi Zhu giving it to himself in disguise. This selfless contribution. Let Zhang Yan firmly engrave Mi Zhu's kindness in his heart.
Besides. Zhang Yan also revealed an important news to these wealthy businessmen who had purchased the title, that is, the relocation of the capital.
He is ready to move the capital of the Han Dynasty to Luoyang again, and now Luoyang is under active construction, and it will be a huge city in the future, and these wealthy merchants who have obtained the title can make plans now if they want to move to the capital and live at the feet of the Son of Heaven. You can buy houses, land, land, and so on in Luoyang City.
Moreover, Zhang Yan even revealed that if you buy houses, land, and fields in Luoyang City now, it will be much cheaper than Luoyang City after it is built.
As he spoke, Zhang Yan brought out a big sand table, and the future Luoyang City was presented in front of everyone's eyes in the form of a model, and Zhang Yan explained them one by one, as well as the specific planning of the future capital, and its strategic significance and specific value.
In short, Zhang Yan seems to have become a real estate consultant in the sales department at this moment. The future capital he planned was completely presented in front of everyone.
The model of the capital city is right in front of everyone's eyes. After hearing Zhang Yan's detailed introduction, these wealthy businessmen all had a plan to settle down in the future capital, after all, the capital is a place that many people dream of, and being able to become a person in the capital is also a symbol of glory and status.
During the Western Han Dynasty, the capital of the Han Dynasty was in Chang'an, and because Chang'an was subordinate to Guanzhong, everyone was proud to be a Guanzhong person.
The most typical is the Han Wu Emperor's Lou ship general Yang Fu, in order to become a Guanzhong person, Yang Fu wrote to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, stunned to move the Hangu Pass from the old site to the east for hundreds of miles, and established a new Hangu Pass in Xin'an County, and the old site was relocated to Hongnong County.
Even the ministers of the DPRK and China are proud to be Guanzhong, let alone ordinary people.
It is precisely because people have this kind of heart, so the population of Pengcheng after the Han Dynasty came to settle here, the population doubled, and some could not enter Pengcheng, so they simply migrated to the area around Pengcheng, at least close to the Son of Heaven, and Xuzhou became the most populous state in the world in one fell swoop.
Therefore, the prosperity and prosperity of Xuzhou are also closely related to the location of the Son of Heaven.
When Zhang Yan said that he had moved the capital and began to sell the houses, land, and land in the new capital city internally, those wealthy merchants rushed to buy them, and the scene was even worse than snapping up the title.
However, Zhang Yan did not give a final conclusion, but just asked the newly acquired lords to go back and prepare funds, and he was ready to have a unique auction.
What the auction is, these people don't understand, but after Zhang Yan's explanation, everyone can basically understand one or two, when the banquet is over, these lords have returned to the post house to rest, carefully calculating their own property, how much to take, and which place of land is the most suitable to buy.
To this end, Zhang Yan also printed thousands of leaflets, on which the floor plan of the future capital Luoyang was drawn, clearly demarcating the type of land and the average price of houses in the area to be sold.
These leaflets were distributed to each of the lords, and when they returned to the inn, they began to hold the leaflets, look at the floor plan, and fantasize about the location they were going to buy.
Of course, the house price is determined according to the regional land price, the closer to the location of the palace, the more expensive the land price, the higher the house price, on the floor plan, Zhang Yan clearly marked the location of the palace, as well as some of the mansions around the palace for sale. In Zhang Yan's plan for Luoyang City, he wanted to build a unique megacity, and relied on the existing construction technology to build some sturdy and durable buildings, and the whole city was divided into five large areas: the palace city, the forbidden city, the inner city, the urn city, and the outer city.
Among them, the Imperial Palace is located in the middle of the whole city, on the central axis of east-west and north-south, and this place belongs to the palace because there is only the imperial palace.
In the forbidden city, the palaces of the Yan Wangfu and the ministers of the court are all here, in addition, there are some mansions left, there are only about five, these five empty mansions are all displayed in the form of independent courtyards, and they are also the area with the highest price for public sale.
Among them, the inner city is the largest area in Luoyang City, and it can be subdivided into several different levels, which are reasonably divided into residential areas and commercial areas. The army was generally stationed in the urn city and the outer city, and there were more vacant land and houses, which were the most sold places.
According to Zhang Yan's description, the city is huge, and these wealthy merchants who bought the title are secretly holding back their strength, preparing to auction off their favorite land and houses at the auction tomorrow, thus becoming people in the capital in one fell swoop.
In fact, Zhang Yan had already planned to sell the land and houses in the new capital, and now more than 10,000 wealthy businessmen from all over the country gathered in Pengcheng, Zhang Yan just took advantage of this opportunity to do an auction, earn more money, and then invest it in the capital flow of the construction of Luoyang City.
Zhang Yan formulated a series of auction regulations overnight, preparing for a special auction the next day.
Early the next morning, tens of thousands of lords gathered in the square in front of the Yanwang Mansion, and the auction officially began.
The first auction is a single-family luxury compound located in the forbidden city, with 10,000 gold per house as the starting price of the auction, and those who pay the higher price can own the property rights of this single-family luxury compound.
10,000 gold for a house, to be honest, it's a bit outrageous, but in the eyes of these lords who want to become people in the capital, even a first-class earl of 50,000 gold has bought it, do you still care about this house?
So, the first to snap up the purchase were those who could afford the price, about fifty or sixty people, many of whom were second-class counts.
The financial resources of some second-class earls may not be smaller than those of first-class earls, and it is only because first-class earls are bought out that these people have no choice but to buy second-class earls.
The first bidder was a second-class earl from Jizhou, who directly asked for 30,000 gold, wanting to kill the house at once.
A moment later, a first-class earl offered thirty-five thousand gold, five thousand gold higher than the second-class earl.
The second-class earl was unwilling and directly bid 40,000. And the first-class earl offered forty-five thousand, which was always a little higher than the second-class earl.
The second count's face turned angry, and he made a look of inevitability, and bid 50,000 gold.
But the first-class earl was not to be outdone, and bid 55,000 gold.
The second-class earl was an old man in his fifties, and in a fit of anger, he stood up directly and shouted loudly: "Damn, the old man is fighting with you, the old man is going to settle this house, and I will pay 70,000 gold!" ”
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused an uproar, 70,000 gold, this is a lot of money.
The First Earl did not bid again, and the whole square was silent.
The second-class earl looked at the first-class earl proudly, and seemed to say, how about it, can't you afford the price?
At this time, Zhang Yan opened his mouth and said: "This lord bid 70,000 gold, is there a higher bid than this lord?" ”
Zhang Yan's voice was like a stone sinking into the sea, and not a single echo could be heard. So, Zhang Yan said aloud: "Seventy thousand gold once...... 70,000 gold twice...... 70,000 gold three times...... Deal! ”
With a "boom", a small hammer in Zhang Yan's hand struck on a small bell, and the bell echoed in all directions.
Zhang Yan said: "This lord, this house will be yours from now on, please get all the money ready within a month, if the money is not in place within a month, then I will take back this house and continue the auction." ”
"His Royal Highness King Yan rest assured, if I can afford this price, I will definitely be able to get so much money, and within ten days, I will definitely pay all the money." The second-class count said.
Zhang Yan nodded, and said loudly: "Next, continue the auction, the property in this auction is still located in the Forbidden City, next door to the house that was auctioned out just now, the auction reserve price is still 10,000 gold, now the auction starts, please bid!" (To be continued......)
