Chapter 0117 Li Jinglong: Let Me Go to the Charge? Isn’t this putting things to death?!!

Hamiwei.

Although the original Hami Palace was burned by a fire, many buildings remained, which were used by Liu Shan as his military camp.

Li Jinglong and Geng Qing also arrived in Hamiwei for three days.

At this moment, the three people were sitting around the fire, eating watermelon while discussing the next plan.

“Dongchagatai sent an envoy to ask for peace, saying that he would return the goods and pay double compensation, and all the brothers who died would also have compensation.”

Liu Shan finished eating the watermelon in his hand, and just threw the watermelon skin directly aside, and said lightly.

“What? When is the thing? Why are you only saying it now? ”

When Li Jinglong heard this, he felt that the watermelon in his hand was not fragrant!

When this thing was paid tribute in the Western Regions Fan State before, he also had the opportunity to taste one or two of Zhu Yuanzhang’s light, but the Daming Benshi did not plant it.

After all, this thing doesn’t look big, it’s actually water, and it doesn’t matter if it’s full.

Daming is even short of land to grow food, how can it waste land to grow such a thing?

But in Hamiwei these two days, I have eaten well.

Whether it is watermelon, cantaloupe or grapes, they are all specialties here, and you can eat as much as you want!

“What is there to say? This soldier has already been brought out, do you really want to negotiate peace with them? ”

“Peace talks are easy, you have to think about how to explain to Ying Tianfu when you look back!”

Liu Shan stared at Li Jinglong with a smile and reminded.

When Li Jinglong heard this, he threw the half-eaten watermelon in his hand directly aside, and rubbed his forehead with some headache.

He can now see that any pressure is fake, and the next step is to run to watch the soldiers surround Urumqi!

Peace talks are impossible!

Really want to talk to peace, how can he explain to the old man when he turns back? People gave compensation, and the goods were all eyed back?

But if the old man has the intention to investigate, he can finally find out on his head! The most important thing now is to start playing directly, the more lively the fight, the better!

Only when the station is really turned on, the old man will not have the energy to pay attention to these minutiae!

“What did you do with the messenger?”

Geng Qing asked with a smile.

“Directly slaughtered the leader, let a few small ones take it back!”

Liu Shan seemed to be saying a trivial matter.

Li Jinglong listened to the straight teeth, isn’t this a clear telling to people, I am coming to hit you?

“It’s almost time to rest, right? Let’s set out early tomorrow morning. ”

Geng Qing asked Li Jinglong at this time.

“It’s good to say on my side, even if the siege artillery is still on the way, it can’t come so soon!”

Li Jinglong nodded a little helplessly.

“That’s okay, let’s surround Urumqi first, and then attack the city when the cannons arrive!”

Geng Qing said disapprovingly.

As soon as Li Jinglong heard this, his heart immediately became apprehensive.

It is naturally no problem to let him train troops, small fights, or platooning troops can also be, really let him lead the troops to fight head-on, isn’t that his life?

Also fence Urumqi!

In case the Eastern Chagatai side also sends troops, take advantage of this opportunity to fight with Urumqi on both sides, and they have not enough soldiers and horses on their hands to 50,000, can they really beat each other?

Li Jinglong’s heart was simply panicked!

“Why don’t you stay in Hami?”

As if seeing the apprehension in Li Jinglong’s heart, Geng Qing suddenly asked with a smile.

“How does that work? As the chief officer, Bengong can’t just shrink in the city when the war is imminent, right? ”

When Li Jinglong heard this, he gritted his teeth and acted very hard.

If you don’t be tough, you can’t help it, the news about this side is to be handed over, if you let the old man know that he is hiding in the city, letting the army fight outside, and he must not spray himself to death?

“Grandpa Guo is domineering!”

Liu Shan happily gave a thumbs up to Li Jinglong.

Li Jinglong wanted to cry without tears, so he could only beat it off and swallow it into his stomach! Hanzhong Province.

The autumn harvest has been almost completed, and only the potatoes of the third season of this year are still being harvested.

The first batch of more than 100 five-storey buildings has been completed, while the second batch of buildings is also under construction.

The reason why only a five-story small building is built is mainly that there is no elevator, so it is all stairs!

Now these newly built new buildings have become the most beautiful scenery in Hanzhong Mansion, because they are all buildings facing the street, and the first and second floors are designed according to shops, so they have just begun to sell to the outside world, resulting in a hot scene of short supply.

People who do business are shrewd, and at the same time, they can see the value of the shops along the street, not to mention such a new building, which is simply not a grade compared to the old wooden houses!

The most important thing is that the price is not expensive!

Originally, a street shop in Hanzhong Mansion, a better single room bought for about 100 taels, and a cheaper one had to cost dozens of taels.

If it is rented, it will cost several taels a year.

The design of the unified three-room façade of the new building, the upper and lower floors according to the standard of six rooms, that is, 600 taels can be bought directly, and the average price of each room is 100 taels.

A few hundred taels of silver is really not expensive for these merchants, let alone this kind of strong, spacious and not afraid of fire new houses!

As for the residential housing on the upper three floors, they are all designed as one household on one floor, and the three floors can be sold in the style of three households, which is equivalent to the original farm yard, and it is definitely no problem to live in a family.

This price is much cheaper than the shops on the first and second floors, the third floor is 50 taels, the fourth floor is 40 taels, and the fifth floor is 30 taels!

After all, you have to climb the stairs every day, and the higher the floor, the more favorable the price.

Overall, such a five-story building can be sold for more than a hundred taels.

If you only calculate the labor and construction costs, a building is within two hundred taels, which means that the net profit is at least five hundred taels.

This first batch of more than 100 new houses alone can help Zhu Li earn 50,000 taels of silver.

What about the 10,000 new buildings to be built in Hanzhong?

There will only be more and more in the future!

Not only Hanzhong, but also Xi’an Prefecture and surrounding counties will begin to build new brick houses according to this model.

This is just the beginning.

When the technology of steel and concrete is mature and can be mass-produced, real high-rise buildings will be more valuable when built!

“Your Highness, even if the price of this house is doubled, it will be bought by people, why do you…”

Yang Hui was obviously a little difficult to understand such a cheap selling price.

Although profits have more than tripled, who would be afraid to drill more money?

“You’re right, if the price doubles again, it will also be affordable for those merchants!”

“But the main thing in building a house is to make it affordable for the common people!”

“Shops are also a truth, and ordinary people must also be given opportunities!”

“Moreover, we must not only focus on the immediate benefits in doing business, but must take a longer-term view!”

“As there are more and more shops in the future, there will always be a saturation of the market.”

“Ordinary people need several taels of silver to build a wooden house that can live in people, let them spend dozens of taels of silver to buy a house, and they have to borrow money from the bank.” You raise the price, and these ordinary people will be discouraged! ”

“You will expropriate their houses in the future, even if you give them demolition money, it will not be enough for them to buy a new house, how many people do you think are willing to cooperate with the demolition?”

Zhu Li raised his eyebrows and asked.

When Yang Hui heard this, she showed a thoughtful look.

He probably understood what Zhu Li meant, that is, to make it affordable for the common people, to have hope, not to patronize themselves to earn money, nor to just focus on these rich businessmen.

After all, no matter how many merchants there are, they are also a minority compared with ordinary people, and they can’t give all the houses they build in the future to these merchants, right?

“And the houses in the future will be graded.” High-priced houses are not for nothing, but they need to be built separately, specifically for villas where the rich live. ”

“Hmm… When the villa is also built later, you will understand, and now it is not clear to say! ”

Zhu Li waved his hand, also happy to say more on this issue.

At present, the more than a hundred new houses that have just been built may already be good houses for Yang Hui and them, but in his eyes, they are not as good as the cheap communities of the eighties and nineties.

Such a house cannot be sold too expensive, because the real expensive house is still to come!

Waiting for thousands of taels or even tens of thousands of taels of mansions to pick up and sell to these rich people is the time to really make money!

Similarly, at the beginning, Yang Hui did not understand why Zhu Li set the loan interest rate of his own money house so low.

But now he seems to be slowly understanding.

It’s the same as small profits or long streams.

Although the profit is low, but the people find that they can afford it, when they can afford it, they are willing to use it, and more and more people will naturally use it, and the money they can earn every year is also considerable!

More importantly, the money released was used to stimulate consumption, and the people were willing to spend money, but the money spent finally changed hands and entered the pocket of the King of Han.

What did King Han offer them?

They were given jobs, they were given money, and they were given food

You have to buy the goods you need every day, whether it’s grain or cloth, right? The business that can be seen in the market of Hanzhong Mansion basically has the shadow of Han King Mansion, even if you lend silver to these people, this silver will still be used to buy your Han King things later.

For example, the most valuable house, this is the truth.

In Zhu Li’s view, only a virtuous circle such as the itinerary allows the people to live, afford to buy things, eat well, and even more affordable to buy a house, then there is no worry that the king of Han will not make money!

It’s as if he has laid out a big plate and installed the entire Hanzhong inside, and in this big market, most of the money will eventually flow to his Han King!

The common people provide you with countless amounts of money, and you have to provide the people with food and clothing, which is equivalent exchange.

When the people can’t afford the needs of life, this plate has to collapse, or can only make short-term profits, and in the long run there will always be a day when it will collapse, which Zhu Li will never allow!

“Is there any news from the Western Regions?”

Zhu Li asked at this time.

“It should be soon, a few days ago Liu Shan came to the news that the envoy sent by the Eastern Chagatai has been beheaded by him, and when Geng Qing and Li Jinglong arrive in Hami, they can go directly west to Urumqi after a short rest!”

“Count the time, these two days should be on the road!”

Yang Hui recalled the time when Liu Shan wrote to herself, and reported to Zhu Li.

“Now in this season, the day is fine, if it is night, if it is not able to protect against the cold, even the Hanzhong army will not be able to eat.”

“Supplies for warmth, as well as tents and quilts, must be supplied!”

Zhu Li nodded in satisfaction, and at the same time instructed Yang Hui.

Logistics supply is now in charge of Yang Hui, and it is also very important to regularly send supplies to the army in the Western Regions!

Especially after winter, logistics are insufficient, but there will be big problems.

“Your Highness rest assured, every five days, the Hanzhong Mansion will have materials to be transported to Hami, and Hami will be responsible for delivering supplies!”

Yang Hui nodded solemnly.

It is estimated that only when the Hanzhong army goes out to fight, can enjoy such logistical treatment!

The entire factory in Hanzhong Prefecture is busy, in addition to daily production, but also to work overtime to help the front line produce materials, produce a batch out, and supply a batch every few days, it is no exaggeration to say that the imperial court will never be able to do this!

For example, Li Jinglong’s 30,000 army, if it were not for Zhu Li’s side to provide winter materials, maybe there would not even be enough quilts at night!

These soldiers on the side of the imperial court army can be regarded as stained with the light of the Hanzhong army

But in other respects, their treatment is not worse than that of the Hanzhong Army!

Although Zhu Li did not let the imperial army spend money, the food and grass supplied to the imperial army was the standard of the general army.

In Zhu Li’s words, that is, the landlord’s family has no surplus food, and the imperial court army must come according to the standards of the Hanzhong army, so he must not be directly eaten poor?

For this reason, Li Jinglong also complained about Zhu Li more than once in his heart.

Another half a month later.

Daming Hongwu 26 October 25.

Geng Qing and Li Jinglong led an army totaling more than 40,000 from Hanzhong and the imperial court to finally reach the shores of Lake Bosten.

It was only a few tens of miles away from the place where the caravan was ‘robbed’ before, that is, the wheel platform where the Shi’er Special Department was stationed.

Luntai is the only city in the surrounding area that can be used for defensive warfare, and it is also the largest stronghold of the Turkut Department in Urumqi.

There are about 30,000 generals under Arudo’s eleven who can fight, and the elite is less than 10,000, but it is already a lot of combat power among these tribes in the Western Regions!

Arudo had returned to the wheel platform by this time, and had brought 10,000 cavalry from Aksu as support.

But for this battle, he didn’t have any bottom in his heart!

It is good to say that the Ming army can be repelled in a short time, if it is a long time, the food and grass consumption of this extra 10,000 cavalry alone can directly drag down the wheel platform!

Originally, the grain and grass of the wheel platform could only support three months at most, and now it was even more stretched!

No way, people gave you the soldiers, can’t you even have to pay for the grain and grass, right?

Moreover, he also hoped that if this battle was deadlocked, Aksu’s side would be able to send follow-up reinforcements over!

It would be better if troops were also sent from the side of the Timurid Khanate! It was getting dark.

Geng Qing and Li Jinglong had the army camped directly on the eastern shore of Lake Bosten.

After the army rested for one night, wait for the old Ming to start besieging the city!

“Wang Wu, take the general’s war horse to the lake to drink a few sips of water, and remember to feed more forage when you come back!”

Geng Qing handed over his war horse directly to Wang Wu, who had been following him.

Before Zhu Li told him to please this kid well, to take him with him to teach him by his side, he still didn’t understand why Zhu Li was so fond of a kid at hand.

But after this time, Geng Qing also felt that Wang Wu, this kid, was indeed a talent

Although his old son Wang He is only a hundred households, he can gather the children of those thousand families around him with a single mouth, just like the posture of a child king.

This kid’s organizational leadership ability seemed to be innate, and it also made Geng Qing’s eyes light up!

Especially although this kid is the youngest, only thirteen years old, but his figure is much burlier than a normal child, even if he is put together with the adult Han Zhongjun, it will not look too abrupt, that is, this face still looks a little immature!

Well…… There are still some traces on the body that a man should have, but just beat and beat!

“Why do you still have a little soldier with you?”

Li Jinglong watched Wang Wu lead the war horse to the lake, and couldn’t help but ask with some curiosity.

The main thing is that the eleven generals around Geng Qing are the elite of the Hanzhong Army, and Wang Wu is a lot weaker at a glance, and he will look very abrupt around Geng Qing.
