[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!
Wang Jinyuan was out of breath: "Let's spread the news. In order to repay everyone's love, we originally launched a piece of land in the later period, which is 200 acres, but this time, whoever gets the lottery will get it. If you are still dissatisfied with it, If you make more noise, you're welcome."
Wang Jinyuan dared not go out, for fear of being beaten to death.
After the news was released, people's dissatisfaction finally dissipated.
In just a few days, a thousand sets of mansions were put on the market, and the sales were extremely hot. Some even snatched up the mansion that was designed for a garbage station.
Daming never lacked people with money.
This actually has a lot to do with the silver standard of the Ming Dynasty. Metal is currency, and this currency is a scarce product. Because of scarcity, there is almost no possibility of depreciation. Only in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, a large amount of silver was imported. loose.
But even so, the value of silver itself is still unshakable.
The value of one thing is almost constant, and there is no possibility of shrinking. Therefore, in this era, there are two kinds of people at most, one is the landlord, and the other is the old money.
Needless to say, the landlord relies on the land. As for the so-called Lao Cai, they may also have land, but they also have their own shops, or oil-pressing workshops. Their income is high, and most of them are time-honored brands. They have been operating for generations and earn money. They will not spend it. , what to do? I found a big jar, put the silver in it, and buried it in my backyard, or under my bed.
There is no so-called inflation in this era, so there is no need to worry about the value of silver shrinking. Therefore, this generation of people just saves and invests these silvers like this? nonexistent. Lao Cai is mostly conservative and has no motivation to invest.
From generation to generation, the money under the bed has become more and more, and almost none of it is circulated in the market. Only God knows how much wealth there is.
But now, even the old rich are tempted. After a few days of work, ten thousand taels of silver will become twelve thousand. This is many times better than burying silver.
Not only that, in order to pay for the housing loan, Xishan Bank has started to absorb deposits on a large scale, depositing one hundred taels of silver, and after a year, it can generate interest of one tael of silver.
Although a tael of silver is not much, it is the real deal, and you can see and touch the money.
Xishan Bank has been in operation for some time, with rich financial resources. There have been several rumors of crises, and people have been frightened to exchange them with bank notes. As a result, they have enough reserves, and you can exchange as much as you want. Merchants began to accept this currency that can be exchanged and withdrawn at any time.
After all, no one likes businessmen who go out with hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Even if it is a catty of silver, it is not easy to carry and hide. If it is ten catties, twenty catties, or one hundred catties, it will be lost halfway And the effort of fee is too great.
In the capital, there was a tide of digging. The backyards and under the beds of the old rich were dug into holes. The courageous ones were eager to buy a house in the new city, and the timid ones were staring at the interest rate of the Xishan Bank.
A few days ago, the interest rate was still one percent, but it has risen slightly recently.
It is safe to deposit this money. Everyone knows that when your own money is deposited, it is used to lend to others to buy a house, and the bank earns the difference from it, and you can also get some benefits.
Ever since, this Xishan bank has a lot of deposits and a lot of lenders.
Crowded.
However, with so much silver circulating in the market all of a sudden, the price of goods in the market that was still in short supply began to rise slightly, and inflation quietly started.
This has deepened the anxiety of many people, especially the old rich. If you save money, if you don't spend it, you will die at a loss.
The market, which was originally a pool of stagnant water, suddenly seemed to have a silver tide, and dark waves began to surge.
Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao began to plan the new city.
Since it is a new start, each piece of land must be reserved or sold in the future, or it needs to build cultural and educational facilities. Every piece of land is valuable. Although only a thousand houses have been released now, it can be The down payment obtained, plus the final payment from the bank to Xishan Jianye, this more than ten million taels of silver, is easy to get.
A thousand acres of land... Hehe... Pediatrics.
We have several hundred thousand mu of land within the third ring road of Jifan. Of course, don't rush, take your time.
This is a business that is ready to eat for generations, so what's the hurry.
Needless to say, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an unknown amount of land between the third and fifth ring roads. Because it is a long-term business, it is necessary to plan it slowly.
For example, Fang Jifan’s 1,000 mu of land seems to be a lot of money, but it also needs to be invested in construction costs. Not only that, you have to build roads for him, right? What about the schools and hospitals that were agreed?
Of course, Fang Jifan could use something to fool him in the end. For example, a good asphalt road is actually a rough rammed earth road with something casually smeared on it. For example, the so-called hospital is actually a small clinic.
Even, the so-called heating, the so-called floor-to-ceiling windows...
It won't work.
Fang Jifan is a conscientious person. He naturally has a sense of responsibility for history. He may be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai. Fang Jifan chose the latter.
On this planning map, it has already been densely marked countless times, and then deleted and revised.
But still not satisfied.
However, Fang Jifan said: "There is a shortage of manpower. There are so many roads to be built, so many houses to be dug, so many ditches to be dug, and there are also various workshops and ceramic tile burners.
, smelting copper pipes, and burning glass. The existing workshops are far from enough, and there are also brick kilns... Even, so many people will move in in the future, they will need a lot of furniture, eh, it’s difficult, it’s too difficult, and it’s still difficult. There's the asphalt picker, the concrete maker, and..."
Fang Jifan felt dizzy.
Such a vast palace city not only needs to continue to build the Daming Palace, but also needs to build a thousand sets of houses now, and even, in the future, it may be necessary to launch houses in remote places, build roads, and build drainage ditches in advance. Even, a large amount of marble is needed, which is because of Fang Jifan's need for the construction of government offices, grand theaters and some magnificent buildings.
A huge and magnificent building has a huge increase in price.
If the grade is not enough, why sell people 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 acres in the future?
But at this moment, a eunuch came over out of breath: "His Royal Highness, Captain Fang, His Majesty calls you to have an audience, hurry up."
Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan didn't dare to neglect, they hurried to Fengtian Hall of Daming Palace.
In this Fengtian Hall, all the curtains are rolled up, and the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows make this hall and the outside of the hall merge into one.
The two took off their boots and went in.
Zhu Houzhao's feet were a bit smelly, so Fang Jifan had to cover his nose.
Emperor Hongzhi was sitting on the golden throne. Here...it was a brand new experience. This made him hate the suffocating Nuan Pavilion. He liked Fengtian Hall, which was spacious, bright and warm.
But now, Emperor Hongzhi frowned.
In his hand, there are more than a dozen impeachment memorials. The impeachment is the crown prince and Fang Jifan, who actually sold the land, and even raised the price of the land. They hope that His Majesty can move to the Forbidden City, otherwise, this will bring great harm to the subjects. Great inconvenience.
More than a dozen people playing together, this is no small matter.
Emperor Hongzhi expressed deep concern.
Especially Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, these two boys, actually did this trick behind their backs, which made Emperor Hongzhi feel cold.
How do you feel, caught in a trap?
"My son has met His Majesty (Father Emperor)."
With a cold face, Emperor Hongzhi tapped on the memorial on the copybook.
Xiao Jing understood, and forwarded the memorial to Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan.
The two of them saw it and understood.
Was scolded.
As a conscientious contractor, it is inevitable that he will be impeached.
After all... In these years, there are too many people who are not good at others.
"You... really did this?"
Emperor Hongzhi said coldly: "What is said here is true? After reading the memorial, I summoned the two of you to ask for clarification. Before the ministers start a fight, I will give you a chance. "
Zhu Houzhao didn't know what to do, he looked at Fang Jifan.
Fang Jifan said without saying a word: "Your Majesty, this is indeed true."
Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly.
Whether you want to sell it or not, if you insist on selling the land, it will cause complaints, let's see how you end up.
Emperor Hongzhi was about to say, you two, who came up with the idea, who is the principal offender and who is the accomplice.
But at this time, Fang Jifan said seriously: "His Royal Highness, you are so wise, it is because of His Royal Highness that you have such a wonderful idea."
Hee hee... Ben Gong is very wise.
Zhu Houzhao was happy when he heard Fang Jifan say that he was a saint.
Just as he was about to smile, his face suddenly stiffened slightly.
its not right.
Your Majesty is now asking about the crime, and the old Fang said that he is a saint and has a whimsical idea. What does this mean? Does this mean that I am the one who came up with the idea, and I am the one who took the lead? The scapegoat... is naturally Ben Gong...
I only have land from the third to fifth rings, so far, I haven't earned a single copper coin yet.
Old Fang... you tricked me...
Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan with resentment.
Fang Jifan didn't even look at him.
When Emperor Hongzhi heard it, he thought to himself, it really is this wicked thing.
So he glared at Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao collapsed all of a sudden, and was just about to bow down obediently and confess his guilt to the law.
Fang Jifan said: "It is precisely because of His Highness the Crown Prince's whimsical idea that he came up with such a good government that benefits the country and the people. My son... I really admire the Crown Prince. I admire him very much. The Prince is a thousand years old!"
"..." Zhu Houzhao's expression changed.
Emperor Hongzhi looked down.
Originally, he planned to call the two of them to teach them a lesson and punish them, but it didn't exist. Today, I will clean up the two of them severely, and then find a way to suppress the matter.
But who knows, Fang Jifan even said the words "benefiting the country and benefiting the people".
You are still shameless, right?
"Okay, I'd like to know what you guys have to say!"
