The train stopped directly at Qixian Station in Yuci, Shanxi, and after Qiao Zhiqing left the station, all the relatives and officials of the Qiao family were already waiting at the station.He didn't linger at the station and took the train back to Qiaojiabao.Qi County is located in the central part of Shanxi, and it is also a barren land, typical of the Loess Plateau.In this great migration, many towns and villages in Qi County were selected.If it weren't for the poverty that couldn't go on, it wouldn't have caused the glory brought by the Jin merchants going to the west exit.Cars are speeding along the county roads, because Qiaojiabao is the land of Longxing, and asphalt roads were built here very early.At the beginning of the great migration of the population, there were still many Qiao families who wrote in person, asking Qiao Zhi to empty Qi County.After all, it is the land of dragons, and if there is a large migration of population, I am afraid that it will affect the dragon veins.These letters were scolded by Qiao Zhiqing and replied, he never believed in these words of luck.In his opinion, what is not the dragon is feudal superstition.If the dragon vein was really here, this place wouldn't be so barren.The reason why people believe in heaven is just an excuse for cowards to avoid failure.Qiaojiabao was originally a small village, and soon because of the success of Qiao's family in going to the west exit, a large-scale Qiao's ancestral house was soon built in the local area.After Qiao Zhiqing ascended the throne and became emperor, the ancestral house of the Qiao family was built on a large scale again, covering an area the size of a county seat.There are thousands of houses alone, with eight streets and walls on all sides.If it weren't for Qiao Zhiqing's personal order to stop it, the Qiao family's expansion of the ancestral house would not have stopped.Shanxi people miss the old, even if they have money, they can't leave the place where they give birth.The Qiao family's coal business is almost monopolistic, and they are already rich enough to rival the country, and there is no shortage of assets to build a few houses.Qiao Zhiqing had a big quarrel with his eldest brother Qiao Zhiguang for this reason, and resolutely opposed the use of assets to build houses.Only by developing industry can we ensure the rational use of funds and the economy proceed in an orderly manner.When he drove to the door of the house, the eldest brother was sick and greeted him with the support of all the clansmen.The family's business is now inherited by Qiao Yaoguang's son, Qiao Jingtai.He received a master's degree in economics from Huaxing College at a young age, and after taking over the family business, he brought some youthful vitality to this old enterprise and carried out drastic reforms.Qiao Zhiqing attaches great importance to this nephew, and Qiao Jingtai's every enterprise reform has Qiao Zhiqing's support behind him.When the clansmen saw Qiao Zhiqing, they immediately gave a big salute.Qiao Zhiqing waved his hand, and there was not much of it, and he directly helped the eldest brother back to the guest hall to speak."
Your Majesty, you are busy with official business in Beijing, is there anything you have to do when you come back from afar" Qiao Zhiguang sat down on the second seat and beckoned Qiao Zhiqing to sit on the main seat.Qiao Zhiqing didn't shirk either, his eldest brother was an old antique, and everything had to be done according to the rules."
I heard Yaoguang say that you have been feeling unwell lately, so I want to come back to see you.Big brother, after all, the medical conditions here are not as good as those in Beijing.This time, you will give me a recuperation in the capital, and my body will definitely recover slowly" Qiao Zhiqing comforted with concern, looking at his elderly brother, his heart suddenly sour.Qiao Zhiguang shook his head and waved his hand, coughed dryly twice and refused, "No need, I know how my body is."
After so many years, it has almost become a medicine jar, and it is already the blessing of the ancestors to live until now. ”Qiao Zhiqing was silent, they were all fifty and knew the destiny of heaven, Qiao Zhiguang may have already seen through life and death."
Your Majesty, you don't have to pay too much attention to life and death, people always have to go.The Qiao family can produce you, the emperor, the ancestors and the ancestors have knowledge, and they can also smile at Jiuquan.Before leaving, I want to discuss something with you" Qiao Zhiguang smiled comfortably, the proudest thing in his life is that there is an emperor in the family.On the day Qiao Zhiqing ascended the throne, he offered incense to his ancestors and ancestors, and he almost fainted with excitement.This was unthinkable before, and no one knew that the third brother who was eating, drinking and having fun could achieve such great things."
Say it, big brother.We are all half-cut into the ground, so we don't need to be so polite" Qiao Zhiqing nodded, and no longer forced Qiao Zhiguang to go to Beijing to recuperate."
I know you've been against me expanding my ancestral home.But your brother is just a little bit of a talent, he just wants to be in the court, and now his children and grandchildren can't stay in their hometown.Every opportunity arises, they choose to settle in the city.In our poor and remote place, there are some old men left.If I leave, the country will take this house if it wants.The emperor's house was not all changed to a museum.You also turn our Qiao family's house into a museum, and show the world how our Jin merchants struggle" Qiao Zhiguang said frankly, he thought about this matter for a long time, or his grandson Qiao Jingtai's suggestion.He has been in a single line in his life, leaving Qiao Yaoguang with a son.So he loves Qiao Jingtai, the eldest grandson, so much that if someone else says it, it's okay for him, the eldest grandson."
Then I will thank the eldest brother on behalf of the people" Qiao Zhiqing raised his eyebrows in some surprise, he didn't expect the eldest brother's thinking to change so thoroughly.In order to expand the ancestral home, their brothers quarreled.Now that he has donated all the ancestral mansions at once, it really impresses Qiao Zhiqing.The two brothers talked for more than an hour, and Qiao Zhiguang left to rest because he was unwell.In the afternoon, the whole family got together for a small gathering, and after the family banquet, Qiao Zhiqing took Tian Runye to visit the house.In this era, Jinshang is famous in the whole country, and Jinshang Bank is all over the country, and no one can compare.The original ticket number industry, after Qiao Zhiqing's suggestions and improvements, finally did not miss the times and moved towards regularization.After these Shanxi merchants became extremely wealthy, they built huge mansions in most of their hometowns.The places left by these ancestors are all desolate places with drought and little rain.There is no local merchant in the country who can love his family like the Jin merchants, and he will stay in this yellow land until he is old.Qiao Zhiqing returned to his hometown this time, in addition to visiting his eldest brother, but also to return farmland to forest.In a year's time, two groups of immigrants from Shanxi have migrated to the New Han Kingdom.A large amount of land and villages have been left idle, and all of them have become barren and uninhabited.Qiao Zhiqing didn't want to let these places heal slowly, but should use manpower to speed up the healing speed of nature.The project requires a lot of money and does not yield any benefits.For both the government and the businessmen, it is not really able to mobilize their enthusiasm.The biggest problem facing Qiao Zhiqing now is where to raise so much money to continue the virtuous cycle of afforestation.The next day, he and Tian Runye drove to inspect several surrounding counties and districts.Provincial and municipal government officials did not dare to slack off and personally followed him to inspect various places.To their surprise, Qiao Zhiqing did not drive them away this time, but let them follow them wherever they went
