[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!

The news came quickly.

Although the process of inquiring is very difficult.

A group of merchants have quietly come to Dingxing County, not for anything else, just to buy everything that can be bought.

Capital and Xishan suddenly had hundreds of thousands more people.

And these hundreds of thousands of people are all paid.

The capital’s bulk commodities have already begun to inflate, and the prices of grain and many commodities have begun to rise slightly. Even so, the influx of countless people, coupled with the large amount of silver on the market, the issuance of bank notes, and the With the increase in the spending power of salaried people, prices have already been rising.

But this kind of price increase cannot be transmitted to a small and remote county like Dingxing County in time.

It's just now... It seems that someone has spotted a business opportunity.

In the capital, the same price of a catty of grain is five renminbi, and after threshing, it is between eight and ten renminbi. Even if it is such a price, it is nothing to the people of the capital, because even a laborer , You can get one or two taels of silver a month, and the average salary is around 1,500 Wen. There are still many people, even women, who can work, not to mention, ordinary laborers even have lunch at noon.

If you are poorer, you can use cheaper sweet potatoes and potatoes as a substitute.

But these hundreds of thousands of people are not only laborers, but also artisans, their consumption power is even more astonishing.

Dingxing County is isolated from traffic. Although there is an official road, the essence of the official road is only used to pass documents. It is just built of rammed earth. It takes three days and three nights to go back and forth with a horse-drawn carriage. If it was earlier, it would take five days and five nights to go back and forth with a person carrying a load. It is not bad if one person can carry seventy to eighty catties of grain, but you still have to pay for it. This man has to pay, and he needs to eat and drink along the way. All of this is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but all the money is spent on transportation.

Horse-drawn carriages are now popular in the new city, and the carriage capacity is astonishing. But this carriage is expensive. If it is a muddy road like the official road in the past, it will be harmful to the carriage. The depreciation cost of this carriage is astonishing, and because the road is muddy and difficult, the carriage cannot go fast. Going back and forth costs money. And manpower is also a lot.

This Dingxing County has always been so unknown.

Even though he is very close to the capital, under the traffic environment in the past, he is still a poor country.

But now...

all of a sudden……

The situation has changed.

The road has been repaired, the best asphalt road, and it has six lanes side by side. It is not afraid of any rainy and snowy weather, and there is no mud. A loaded carriage can almost go back and forth in a day.

One day round trip, what does this mean? It means that the deal was negotiated in Dingxing County early in the morning, and people were ordered to load the car immediately. If it was faster, it would arrive at the warehouse in Xincheng at noon. Even if it was slower, it would be before dark on that day. Also accessible.

In the capital, even if you are entering the inner city from the outer city, if you sometimes encounter congestion, it will take this time.

road……

Old Master Fang was dumbfounded.

This road actually has such a function?

He looked at Zhou Wu, Zhou Wu was his confidant, and several generations had worked in the Fang family, so he couldn't trust him the most.

"Is the news reliable?"

"Reliable!" Zhou Wu said resolutely: "However, the news hasn't spread yet, it's not just our Fang family... I heard that just a few hours ago, someone went to the Yang family and looked for Mr. Yang... ..."

Old Master Fang narrowed his eyes: "What?"

"The Yang family has a large piece of land, all of which are adjacent to the road. Someone wants to buy his land. The price is... 200 taels per mu. I just signed an agreement and sold more than 100 mu."

Mrs. Fang was taken aback.

Usually in Dingxing County, one mu of land is only twenty taels of silver, and the price has increased by more than ten times after changing hands.

"He sold it?"

"It's sold!" Zhou Wudao: "The Yang family is so happy that it's crazy. It's more than 20,000 taels of silver. It can't be earned for a few lifetimes by digging in the fields. This news is covered up and kept secret. To sign a contract, you have to ask Liu Shuli from the county to be a guarantor. I'm afraid no one will know... As for whether there are any merchants who are negotiating with people about buying land and collecting grain, I don't know. Anyway, what the villain knows Yes, now in Dingxing County, even the land that is not connected to the road, the price will go up, and the price of food is much higher than the secret price now... I heard... There are many people who want to live in Dingxing County, Build a workshop..."

Zhou Wudao: "Old Master, do you still remember? At the beginning, the Ouyang County Lord cleared the land, found a lot of unclaimed land, and directly copied a lot of it into the government."

Mrs. Fang's face was unpredictable.

During the process of clearing the land, there were many lands that had no owners at all. The reason why the title deeds were not signed was for the need of tax exemption. I had to pay taxes, so I didn't come to claim it, but it was directly confiscated and confiscated by the government. I heard that they were all sold to Xishan Jianye at a low price.

At that time... people didn't pay much attention to it. It was just some wasteland. After paying taxes, it was a bottomless pit for posting money.

But Mrs. Fang felt more and more strange: "Go on."

"A clerk received an official letter, saying that the large amount of wasteland owned by Xishan Jianye, in the future, plans to build a large number of workshops, and also develop...Dingxing New City...it is said that the land of the capital is too expensive, But our Dingxing County, compared with the capital,

It’s like you don’t want money, you pick it casually, master, in Xincheng, one mu of land has reached 25,000 taels of silver, but the Yang family sold a hundred mu of land for 20,000 taels of silver, and they are crazy about it, you think about it……"

Old Master Fang gasped and felt dizzy.

Grain... the price will rise sharply in the future, and the future of growing grain will have a huge skyrocketing.

In addition, the Fang family also has an oil press, an earthen kiln wine making workshop, and...

"Our Fang family has a lot of land, why no one came to buy our land?"

The boss at the side was stunned and couldn't help but said, "Father, didn't you say that you have to guard the family business... This is the ancestral property, so it can't be sold?"

Mrs. Fang's backhand is to slap the boss: "You know what, this moment, that moment."

Old Master Fang's eyes lit up.

He suddenly understood something.

Now, this road connects Xincheng and Dingxing County, and Dingxing County is almost the same, connected with Xincheng.

That's the capital, isn't this Dingxing County the equivalent of becoming the outer city of the capital?

Zhou Wu couldn't help but said: "It's not a place, it's all so valuable, you have to rely on the road to get it."

Old Mrs. Fang said angrily: "If I had known this before, this road should be built to our land. No matter, no matter... Now, don't say anything about these things, but don't say anything about it. Boss, think of a way and go buy it too." Some land, as well as grain and oil in the county, can be harvested."

He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and all of a sudden he became vigorous and vigorous, with a rosy face: "Second brother, hurry up and find a way to go to the county, go to the county lord, prepare a gift, and ask them, is this road... Whether you want to repair it or not, you can’t favor one over the other, our Fang family’s land is in a remote village, how come we only take care of others, not Fangjiabao.”

"Ah..." The second child scratched his head: "I dare not go, last time I confronted the county magistrate face to face, saying that he extorted money."

"Bastard!" Old Master Fang jumped up and scolded: "What do you know, you were called to go just because you contradicted him. This is turning hostility into friendship."

"Third brother, you have to go to your in-laws' house. His house has land, and it's near the road. Someone must have been looking for him secretly. Go and inquire. The old man thinks this matter is too mysterious... It's better to inquire clearly. "

"Fourth brother, hurry up to Beijing to meet Mr. Liu. He and our family are good friends. You have to ask him. If you are writing letters, it may be too late. You should go there yourself. Hurry up." back."

After giving the order, Mrs. Fang sat down firmly. He had a premonition that a storm was coming, and this storm would completely reshuffle the entire Dingxing County. It's just a few days.

"Command, from today onwards, all farmers must cheer up. If there are merchants passing by, please come and sit at home. The old man is an approachable person, and he is the most hospitable. The so-called friends come from afar. Good tea and wine are all prepared."

"Oh, by the way, to the outside world, the old man is still seriously ill..." He narrowed his eyes, like an old fox, and said flatly: "When people are sick, they are easy to be confused, and they will give those merchants the impression that there is something to take advantage of." I want to take advantage of the changes in the Fang family's family, so they will come to visit one after another, and want to talk to the Fang family, Zhou Wu, make a big splash, and then go to the county to invite a doctor..."

"Oh, oh."

Mrs. Fang clenched his fists excitedly, his eyes sparkled, and he couldn't help humming: "The old man is here, why are the doors open? Hey, you see Zhuge Liang is playing tricks again, don't fall into other people's tricks!" , wait for me to send an order..."

As he sang, he shook his head and shook his head. He lay back on the sickbed with his hands behind his back, and covered the quilt. Suddenly...he remembered something and turned over: "I'm a little hungry, I'll lie down later, Laifu, Go kill a chicken!"

…………

In Dingxing County, an undercurrent is already surging.

Almost everyone was tacitly aware that the merchants who had seized the business opportunity began to haunt here, inquiring about every news. And the gentry who started to notice something also smelled something, and they did not show their expressions. In this darkness, countless deals were concluded quietly.

After the road was built, the strong men who paid thirty Wen a day were full of regrets. The days of earning money to support their families were gone!

But……

People have gradually realized that not only things are going wrong... but also... the wages are quietly rising... the end of the day!

………………

The first chapter has been delivered, and the monthly ticket is doubled, with tears in my eyes, asking for a monthly ticket.
