After the immortal disappeared

Now, everyone involved in this project is proud of the unprecedented progress. Even Huang Shilu's group of officials who used to be cunning and sly now count the amount of work on their fingers every day, wishing that one quarter of an hour would be two quarters of an hour.

In the words of his son You Xuhe, working in this big project is really too busy to have time for intrigue. Island Master He - no, now it should be called Supervisor He - can whip everyone involved like a spinning top, unable to stop for a moment.

But invisibly, from the king to the ministers, and down to the sons of the ministers, they were all tied to the same chariot -

the chariot driven by He Xiao.

The speed was too fast, and they could no longer jump off.

You Rongzhi occasionally worried about where this chariot would go in the end.

But reason and reality told him not to be suspicious, after all, He Xiao was just an outsider to this country. He has no official position, no military power, only a few dozen subordinates in Tianshui City, and he is full of hatred from the Qingyang Regent. He can only save his life by relying on the protection of the monarch.

Perhaps, it is for the purpose of making money and saving his life that he works so hard on the capital expansion project?

After all, although King Yao does not allow He Xiao to touch the project funds, he has to show some respect for letting him work so hard and handle such a large project, right?

Therefore, the trade between Yao State and Yangshan Islands has been further relaxed. Almost all products in the exclusive franchise category are open to Yangshan, and there are great tax reductions and exemptions. Some are even given to Yangshan to act as a full external agent.

You Rongzhi does not know how many orders Yangshan has made from various officials and merchants. He only knows that its caravans are busy and busy in and out of various places in Yao State.

There have been only two foreign merchants who are doing so well in Yao State since its founding, right?

He Xiao's diligence and talent are real and well-known, but the speculation about He Xiao is groundless and illusory.

You Rongzhi shook his head and threw all these little thoughts behind him.

His head hurt. He was too tired to think about it. He just wanted to find a place to take a nap. He had to attend a meeting later.

...

In a blink of an eye, the demonstration block was basically completed.

In the past few days, it was built quickly in the presence of thousands of people, almost one progress a day. This place has become a tourist check-in point for Tianshui City residents and tourists from other places.

Only the outline of the house has taken shape, the streets and alleys in front of the house, the walls and yards behind the house, and the plants in the block have not been done well, and there is bare loess everywhere.

But no one dared to ask for more. Although there are more than 5,000 craftsmen and laborers working day and night, the speed of construction is already jaw-dropping.

After all, building a house is more technical than building a road.

Wang Zirui was curious and asked the reason. He Lingchuan told him that a large amount of stone and some wood were taken nearby and dismantled.

These materials are certainly not enough to cover the entire new city, but they can barely cope with a block.

After all, they are all bungalows and shops, the process is not complicated, the materials are not demanding, and Yaodu actually has a lot of work teams.

In order to catch up with the progress, He Lingchuan even suspended the construction of Youhu Villa, and all the materials were moved to supply the construction of the new city.

No one has any objection to this.

Everyone knows that He Lingchuan is thinking about the overall situation; the owners of Youhu Villa are now almost all involved in the construction of the new city, and they are not in a hurry.

Youhu Villa has its special purpose, and now it is being fulfilled. How can these owners be in a hurry to move in?

Then, this newly built block model was put on sale.

The new city is full of yellow mud, piles of building materials, and noisy voices, but the block was sold the day after the roof was sealed.

It is very close to the government office in the new city and has a good geographical location.

Under He Lingchuan's "suggestion", only 30% of the residential land and shops were sold to officials; the rest were sold publicly through announcements in various places in Yaodu.

Because Tianshui City had not been expanded for a long time, there was no official professional house selling agency here, and it was all managed by the government office. For the development of this new city, Yaoting specially established a "Housing Department" to specialize in the sale, transfer, and taxation of new city residential land, whether it was first-hand or second-hand.

Less than an hour after the news was announced, the Housing Department became lively and the officials' share was full.

Two hours later, the sales rate of residential land in the block model exceeded 50% overall.

He Lingchuan knew that the reaction speed of ordinary people was not so fast. Although the publicity and promotion of Tianshui East City had lasted for more than half a month, they mostly had to wait and see.

So the first to get the soup must be the dignitaries!

Especially the officials involved in the east expansion project, they were clear about Yaoting's determination to build a new city and were very confident in the future prospects here.

Buying it, not only will you not lose money, but you can also make a lot of money!

People are willing to pay for expectations, so officials bought up their own shares and used other forces to buy up the remaining residential land.

Buying, holding, and managing on behalf of others are all child's play.

They usually operate business and make profits in this way.

He Lingchuan estimated it one step ahead, so nearly half of the shares of this model block are left for others, and they can sell more-

One and a half days.

These "others" are still not civilians, but wealthy businessmen and gentry in Tianshui City.

They maintain close contact with the powerful and wealthy, and they can know what the powerful and wealthy are busy with the second time.

If all the powerful and wealthy are rushing to buy, it must be a good thing.

Don't think too much, just follow!

Just when ordinary people were still hesitant and hesitant, there were two unusually eye-catching black characters on the notice board at the door of the Fangke Department:

sold out!

It was sold out in less than two days?

Many people yelled, impossible, absolutely impossible, the official is lying! There are yellow mud fields everywhere. I even visited them, but they were all sold out.

Who would rush to buy it now? Isn’t that a big brain? Why don’t they wait until it is built?

The official did not give any explanation. They just kept silent for seven days and allowed the news to continue to ferment.

In these seven days, the number of people visiting New Town has more than quintupled!

The road that had just been repaired was actually busy with traffic. At this time, it was obvious that although the road project that You Rongzhi and He Xiao were responsible for was rushed out, it was wide, straight and flat, and the carriage was not very stable when walking on it.

It's not like the main road in the old city. It's bumpy and jerky every step of the way, but it still lets you jump when it's okay!

These two roads alone make passengers very satisfied.

Needless to say, Xincheng is the most hotly discussed topic in Tianshui City.

At this time, the poor relatives and servants of the rich and powerful businessmen spread the news to the market about the owner/owner’s family snapping up model blocks. People began to hear stories such as “Boss Du from the Deshui Chamber of Commerce bought the model block in Xincheng in one go.” News such as "Ten pieces of land" and "Dozens of storefronts along Liuding Street in Xincheng have been taken away by the XX family."

Believe it or not, land in the new city is not cheap, and not everyone can buy it. Officials have said that the new city can only accommodate 200,000 people. Anyone who exceeds this number will go back to where they came from!

If you don't believe it, noble people are willing to spend six to seven hundred thousand taels to buy a house in Youhu. Are they stupid, just throwing money into the water for fun?

Isn’t that still a good idea and convinced of the potential of the new city?

As the topic becomes more and more popular, people's curiosity and expectations for the new city are also increasing day by day.

After seven days of long-short duel, the voices that were originally bearish on it and thought it was unreliable were gradually suppressed.

The land in the first block was sold out in less than two days. When King Yao heard the news, he let out a long sigh, and his heart that had been hanging for ten days was finally relieved.

Qiu Long smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this is better than expected!"

Obviously the account books delivered by the Housing Department were placed in front of King Yao, but he still wanted to ask first: "Have they all been put into storage?"

"I got it, a lot of money for every penny!" Qiu Long reported, "It was paid in full on the same day, and no one defaulted."

That's a hot commodity, who dares to default on payment? If you owe it, you can't get it.

There was a smile on King Yao's eyebrows, but he still said: "A small neighborhood is nothing, and the buyers are all officials in the court. They are extremely rich! You have to watch the next few issues to really know the outcome. sales situation.”

Qiu Long explained: "This time, 30% of the quota is sold to officials, and the remaining 70% is bought by people from Tianshui City."

King Yao glanced at him with a smile: "Don't show off here, I know deep down what kind of officials I have."

Qiu Long could only say: "Your Majesty is aware of everything."

King Yao asked again: "Where is the focus of the expansion? Two days ago, You Rongzhi came to report, and it seemed that he was talking about what to build on Sandiepo?"

The contents of Dongcheng expansion were extremely complex and were compiled into several thick volumes. You Rongzhi always briefed them in every report, but King Yao still couldn't remember them all.

Just kidding, he himself is the king of a country who takes care of everything, so why should he bother to remember those little things?

But Qiu Long beside him must have a good memory in case his master asks questions at any time:

"A set of Huan Biao!"

King Yao nodded: "Yes, yes, not bad, not bad."

There is a slope between the official offices and the main street of the new city. The official offices are on the top of the slope and the civilian streets are on the bottom. The three steep slopes naturally separate the two.

There is no plan to build a house on this slope, nor can we build a temple - the status of the temple cannot be lower than that of the official office.

But the slope was empty and unsightly, so You Rongzhi reported that he planned to build a set of Huanbiao on the slope.

This is a kind of decorative building. The main body is a huge stone pillar or stone tablet, which is exquisitely carved and shows its beauty and majesty.

Tianshui City also has two groups, one in front of the official office and one in front of the palace. This is different from other countries that He Lingchuan has stayed in. The Yuan and Chiyan countries also have buildings similar to Huanbiao, but they are only erected in front of the palace and tombs.

This is because, in the Yao Kingdom, Huan Biao not only demonstrated the peak of royal power, but also reflected the strength of the country.

Therefore, his proposal to build Huanbiao on this slope was completely in line with the national conditions and people's views of Yao State, and there was no problem at all.

This kind of display project that costs a lot of money but has no substantive effect can only be built by the Yao Kingdom in the entire Golden Flash Plain.
