Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House
Chapter 497: Tolls
Gu Jiu reminded Deng Cunli, "We must hurry up and get the academy up. Other things can be delayed, and the academy must not be delayed. The best materials should be used to build the academy."
If you want to sell a house for tens of thousands of taels, what else can you rely on besides the location?
Of course, it depends on compelling standards and demand.
What is the demand.
Since ancient times, people have wanted to pursue spiritual prosperity when they have money, which is commonly known as forced.
High-quality colleges have high-quality real estate projects.
Do you want your children and grandchildren to study in a highly compelling college?
Buy a house!
That's right, what Gu Jiu wants to do is to build a school district room.
She plans to build a work-study college, that is, a technical school for later generations, just after the second phase, and by the way, improve the compelling standards of the second and third phases of real estate projects.
As for the high-level college, it was built on that mountain.
She wants to build a first-class academy in the Zhou Dynasty to attract high-quality teachers and students from all over the world.
On the hillside, at the foot of the hill, and behind the hill, there are the planned four and five real estate projects. Maybe there will be six or seven issues in the future...
Anyway, she bought enough land to build many, many houses.
She also reminded Deng Cunli, "You have to hurry up if you ask you to find those old lady doctors who are honorable to open medical clinics here."
In addition to education, there must be supporting medical care.
No one is more compelling than an imperial doctor who is an imperial hospital.
The drugstore under Gu Jiu's name can sell prescriptions and medicinal materials, but it can't sell it.
Ask the old lady to see a doctor for yourself, what a wise matter.
Those rich and powerful families like to ask people with status to do things for themselves.
The big deal, the imperial physician prescribes the medicine and goes to the drugstore under her name to get the medicine.
The big deal is that she asked the drugstore to open a chain branch in Xinmin County.
Apart from education and medical care, the rest is transportation.
With traffic, there will be more people flow, more business opportunities, and those high-end consumer places will take the initiative to settle in Xinmin County.
Gu Jiu called Deng Cunli, "Go and meet a few elders."
The two left the signing room and walked to the public room on the other side of the market.
Both were on foot, escorted by guards.
Gu Jiu saw that on the Dahuaishu Dam, some hawkers were already setting up stalls. She told Deng Cunli, "I want to find a way to guide more hawkers and tourists to sell here, regardless of what kind of goods."
Deng Cunli said: "At present, the small people in the capital are more willing to spend money. Tourists prefer to go to the capital to do business. However, with the first batch of people in the second phase, business opportunities here are more and more prosperous."
Gu Jiu nodded, "Come slowly. When the number of people living here exceeds 100,000, 200,000, we don't have to worry about it, the market will prosper by itself. Two more commercial markets will be repaired by then."
Talking and walking, finally came to the public house.
The family leader of the Shaofu family was staring at his small eyes, and Gu Yu, the magistrate of Xinmin County, was caught in the midst of suffering.
Seeing Gu Jiu's arrival is like seeing a savior, "Sister Xiao Jiu, you can count."
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded, "I'm here. Two adults, how come you have time to come to this cheap place today? Be a shoe for your heart."
"Mrs. Zhao can really laugh. The ground is very clean, three points cleaner than some of the cities in Beijing. How can it be cheap and dirty shoes." Hubu Shangshu slapped haha.
Shaofu Jialing rolled his eyes, very disgusted. I thought this old man must be risking something bad again.
However, what the Hubu Shangshu said is right. People next to Xinmin County dare not say that the health situation is definitely at the forefront of the entire capital.
Gu Jiu loves to be clean, and even the people with her can't see the dirty ground.
Initially there were only 50 health teams, but now it has expanded to more than 300 people.
These people don't do anything else, they are responsible for holding the broom and picking the pans, cleaning from morning to night, and ensuring that their responsible area is clean from morning to night.
People come and go at the market every day, and it is the sanitation team that ensures that the ground is always clean, and the garbage will be cleaned up within a quarter of an hour after it hits the ground.
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "The two adults are all doing nothing but going to the Three Treasures Hall. It's strange to see them here together.
Old ancestor, an hour ago, we just met at the Shaofu Yamen, why did you come here again? If you have something to do, make someone call me and it will be done. Why bother to mobilize people and come here in person. "
The young man snorted, "Well, the old man has something to say in person."
The subordinate of Jialing Shaofu really couldn't bear to look at him. For patience, his face was distorted.
Gu Jiu asked with a smile, "I wonder what the ancestors have to say to the younger generation?"
Shaofu Jialing glanced at the Shangshu of the Household Department, "Let this old man speak first, the old man is not in a hurry."
Hubu Shangshu: You are always picking, your whole family is always picking.
Hubu Shangshu was very heartbroken, thinking about his dignified Hedong Zhao family, a family that has been inherited for two to three hundred years, nothing else, just the atmosphere.
It was unexpectedly given the nickname "Lao Piao" by the young man from the young man.
Don't think he doesn't know, the young man will follow him in private.
Humph!
Don't worry about this old thing first, business matters.
"Mrs. Zhao, the tax source you mentioned last time..."
He was staring blankly.
Shaofu Jialing: I rely on! What new tax sources did the Ministry of Households engage in? It's too much. It's good to not share the profit. Fortunately, he followed today. Otherwise, all this cheapness would be taken up by the Ministry of Households, and Shaofu wouldn't even have to drink soup.
Shaofu Jialing looked at Gu Jiu again, and said: Xiao Jiu, you are not kind! Such a good thing, why don't you think about the Shaofu, just about the Ministry of Households? Is the old man treating you bad? I have lent you a couple of millions, and this is the first one in the world. If you set aside the Shaofu to find tax sources for the household department, won't your conscience hurt?
Hubu Shangshu stared: Old thief, and want to cut Hu. You have to take the salt and iron tax. This time, you will not succeed.
Two old guys, nearly one hundred and forty years old together, you stare at me and I stare at you, so childish.
Gu Jiu took a sip of tea and smiled, "Before I talk about tax sources, I want to ask the two old men to look at something."
"what?"
Gu Jiu said: "The spring is great outside. If the two adults don't dislike it, it's better to follow me outside."
"Walk, go out and get some sun. This old bone hasn't moved for a long time."
Gu Jiu took the lead, took the two adults and Gu Yu, and walked out of the public house towards the back alley of the market.
There is a cart and horse shop in the back alley, and all the carts and horses of all shops are stored in the back alley.
Therefore, the smell of the back alley is heavier.
"Xiao Jiu, didn't you mean basking in the sun? How did you bring us here?"
Gu Jiu asked with a smile, "Two adults, didn't you notice any difference here?"
"What's the difference?"
Gu Jiu smiled silently.
Gu Yu blinked, reminding the two adults if they could look at the carriage.
What?
Why look at the traffic.
Gu Yu coughed lightly, "In the past, all vehicles and horses used yellow mud as the foundation, and just a little bit of straw. The weather is fine, and when it rains, the ground is almost impossible to foot. It is yellow mud. , It's also livestock dung, as filthy as it is.
Both adults know that it rained in the capital early this morning and the ground was topped. But look at the carts and horses, are there any filthiness? "
what!
This reminded them that the ground on which the carriages were traveling was not loess.
"What's this? It's hard to step on."
Gu Jiu smiled mysteriously, "Two adults follow me."
Out of the carts and horses, to the back of the second phase, here is a street. All the carts and horses that transport building materials pass by this street.
She pointed to the road, "Two adults, please look."
what!
"Why is this road so smooth and strong? With so many cars and horses driving, the road hasn't been crushed?"
"Looking at the ground, it is said that it is yellow mud, but the color is wrong. Moreover, the old man has never seen such a smooth road. How did this happen?"
Gu Jiu still smiled mysteriously, "The carriage is here, the two adults might as well get on the carriage and feel how smooth the road is."
The two adults were thoroughly aroused by curiosity, and got into the carriage one after another.
This street was five miles long, and the carriage ran back and forth.
When the carriage stopped, I heard the shout of Shaofu Jialing first, "Oh, it's terrible. Sitting on the carriage, it's not stable. It's safer than walking on the bluestone ground. Not to mention the Huangni official road. Not qualified to compare with this road."
The two adults got out of the carriage with excitement.
Both of them are human spirits. They met once, then took a ride and felt it in person, and they knew that the road was really good.
If it can be promoted, it will greatly improve the efficiency of communication between the two places and promote business exchanges.
"Mrs. Zhao, what is the road to build? What is the price?"
If the cost is too high, you can only regret it.
Gu Jiu laughed, "The material for paving the road is very simple, it is sanhe soil, also called soil cement. Some time ago, some craftsmen improved the soil cement formula to make soil cement harder, but the cost did not increase.
You see, so many carriages and horses bearing hundreds of kilograms of weight on this road are repeatedly crushed every day for a month and a half, during which there will be several heavy rains. However, the road is still hard and smooth, and there is no damage. "
Upon hearing this, the two adults rushed to the road to check the road.
Gu Jiu was afraid of a car accident.
Due to the second phase of the road, the traffic volume is extremely high.
"The two adults come back soon."
Several guards rushed to the middle of the road, blocking the traffic from the north to the south, so as not to hit the two adults.
The two adults checked the way, and finally laughed together.
Together, two elderly people over a hundred years old, smiling like two hundred catties fat, ran all the way looking back to Jiu's side.
"Xiao Jiu, what is the price of the soil and cement you said?"
Gu Jiu said with a smile, "Ten articles and a load."
A load is one hundred and twenty catties.
The eyes of the two adults lit up, "Is it so cheap?"
"Of course."
"Haha..."
The two adults laughed happily.
Hubu Shangshu danced and danced, "If you use this soil and cement to pave a road to Hedong, how much time can you save?"
The order of the young man was not agreed, "Why do you want to pave the road to Hedong? It is logical to pave the road to the south."
"What's not good about our Hedong, why can't we pave the cement road?"
Two elderly people, one hundred and forty years old, were arguing in the street about which direction to pave the concrete road.
Seeing this scene, Gu Jiu couldn't smile.
"Two adults, the sun is shining, let's go back to the public house for tea first. If you have any ideas, we will discuss it slowly."
The two adults glared at each other, and neither was convinced.
Hube Shangshu remembered the purpose of coming here today, and finally found some sense.
He asked Gu Yu quietly, "This dirt road can save half of the time?"
Gu Yu said: "More than that. It takes about 20 days to travel from Beijing to Hedong in a single trip. If the dirt road is paved, it will only take seven or eight days to arrive."
"That's great!" Hube Shangshu was overjoyed.
Their Zhao family is a big family in Hedong, and they are members of the family who travel between Hedong and Beijing almost every one or two months. Most of this time is wasted on the road.
If the journey of 20 days can really be shortened to seven or eight days, it would be convenient to go back and forth.
Moreover, soil and cement are not expensive, only ten cents, and the key cement pavement is hard and smooth enough, and the carriage runs back and forth on it quickly and smoothly.
There is no way to find a cheaper and better road in the world.
Hubu Shangshu felt like he had found a treasure.
Shaofu Jialing thought of how much money it would cost to build such a road for thousands of miles.
"Even if a ten cents is worth a catal, the road construction will cost you money."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Maybe it's a matter."
Does she really want to use soil and cement to do charity and build roads for the court for free?
This is possible.
But don’t treat tolls as furnishings and toll stations are redundant.
After repairing the road, it is only natural to charge some tolls.
In this game of chess, Gu Jiu has already set the chessboard, set the game record, and has taken the lead in dropping a few pieces.
She dared to borrow several million taels from the Shaofu. Did she really think she just used it to repair the house?
There is nothing better than building roads.
Not only does she want to be the biggest real estate developer in Da Zhou, she also wants to be an infrastructure madman.
Hahaha...
Gu Jiu really wanted to laugh three times up to the sky, it was so cool!
But this matter needs to build momentum.
It is not enough to rely on the road behind the second phase as a model.
Gu Jiu had already set his sights on the official road outside the Nancheng Gate, and planned to turn this official road into a model road.
Go back to the office, wash up a little, and then a few people sit down and drink tea.
Shaofu Jialing and Hubu Shangshu both stared at Gu Jiu, but none of them spoke.
Gu Jiu lowered his head and smiled, and Chaohu Department Shangshu said: "The Huhu Department can add a tax source in the capital, and everything is ready."
"What water source?"
"Tourism tax."
As soon as these three words came out of Gu Jiu's mouth, the two adults already understood.
The so-called wandering merchants are small merchants and hawkers who are different from merchants and sit-on merchants. They have no fixed booths and carry their goods on the street all day.
There are many such hawkers in the capital. The exact number has not been counted, but there are certainly many.
There are also many in Xinmin County.
The current mainstream, from top to bottom, the court did not welcome these tourists.
Yamen would chase away these vendors from time to time and would not allow them to go to this street or that street.
If it is encountered by the above investigation, the yamen directly lifted the goods and arrested the people for seven or eight days. There are also some people who are willing to let them go with the money.
Only Xinmin County welcomes tourists.
"Is it okay to collect tourist tax? How much does it cost?"
Gu Jiu chuckled softly, "As for how much money you can charge, you can just try and see. Tourists who sell baskets will charge five taxes and fees a day, and those who drive ox carts and donkey carts as tourists will charge fifteen. Document taxes and fees.
Except for the imperial city, whatever the location is, let them sell it. In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the government officials, prevent corruption, and facilitate tourists, I specially made a tax plan for tourists. "
Ome immediately took out a tax plan bound into a book, but did not give it to either of the two adults.
The two adults stared at the proposal, eyes hot.
Gu Jiu smiled and asked, "I want to be an adult? The truth is that I am collecting tourist tax?"
The Household Department Shangshu nodded repeatedly, "No matter how small the mosquito meat is, it is also meat. How can you not want it. Mr. Jialing, this bit of mosquito meat should not be appreciated by your young man."
Xiaofu Jialing now has a new pursuit, "Don't worry, the old man will not compete with you for tourist tax."
It may be possible to levy a tourist tax. He can't make a noise in the court for this bit of mosquito meat.
Hubu Shangshu looked excited, "Madame Zhao has any conditions, please mention it."
Gu Jiu took the proposal book and smiled softly, "The two adults on the cement road have already felt it, and the younger generation bravely asked the two adults to help build momentum in the court. Regarding road construction and how to build it, I have also made a proposal here. ."
Two identical proposal books were placed in front of the two adults.
Build roads at your own expense and set up toll stations to collect tolls?
The two adults were a little dazed.
How much does it cost to repair roads at your own expense?
Gu Jiu said: "I know that there is no money in the DPRK, so I dare not expect the court to allocate money to build roads. I am willing to bear all the costs of road repairs. All the refugees can go to the construction site to build roads and earn a salary to support their families. Also welcome.
The only requirement is that the imperial court allow me to set up toll stations and collect tolls for vehicles and horses. The court shall not interfere in all affairs of the toll station. "
