Chapter 1724: Accumulation Ye Chunqiu is not a short-sighted person, although the temptation of money is great, but he believes that to create wealth, not only rely on intelligence and opportunity, but also decisiveness.
Now that he has a good foundation, Ye Chunqiu sees a more ambitious return.
Accumulation is the ecology of Qinglong now.
Over the years, both the Zhenguo Mansion and the Ye family have accumulated too much money.
What's more, these top ten business houses that made a fortune with the Ye family, as well as countless businessmen, have already been worth more than one million, and even some small businessmen and countless business house shopkeepers, senior craftsmen, most of them have earned a family business, the railway between Qinhuangdao and Qinglong has also been built, and now the whole line is open, the steam train running on the line has become a spectacular landscape in the eyes of Qinglong people, as long as you have a good expectation, soon, There will be countless people who will invest their life's savings in the construction of new railways.
Not only that, the grassland is vast and sparsely populated, which leads to the fact that as long as the people who are willing to go out of the customs are easier to gain a foothold, the town government began to open up pastures in various pastures, and with pastures, it is inevitable that market towns will appear, and market towns will rise from the ground, although within these hundreds of miles, it is just a small market similar to rushing to the market, and the population is not enough for hundreds or thousands of people, but every once in a while, there will always be an influx of displaced people.
As long as the population continues to grow and the pastures continue to expand, these market towns will inevitably prosper, and now they are just small merchants sending some necessities of life, so it will not be long before the population increases, more and more merchants will pour in, if the railway line through the desert is once the construction begins, Ye Chunqiu believes that along the line, cities will rise from the ground, and then become more prosperous.
In the past, the biggest hidden danger outside the customs was the problem of security, but in fact, life inside the customs was not much better than that outside the customs gates, because there was a very conspicuous problem outside the customs gates, that is, there were many people and little land, and they were mainly engaged in farming; once a catastrophe occurred, those tenants who had no surplus grain would soon fall into a situation of lack of food and clothing, and those small peasants with a few acres of land would have to buy land and be reduced to tenants.
Now, the security risks outside the customs have been solved, and with the new army of Zhenguo like a heavenly soldier in the eyes of the subjects, the outside of the customs has become a hopeful choice.
At the end of the year, there was a major disaster in Shandong, which soon led to a sharp increase in the number of people leaving the customs, and in order to survive, hundreds of thousands of victims brought their families and mouths to frantically pour out of the customs.
Qinglong and even the entire desert have never worried about the increase in population, on the contrary, whether it is the town government or the merchants, they all like the displaced people and disaster victims, well, because they often only seek food and clothing, and they are very hard-working, and Qinglong is prosperous, it is the time when more labor is needed.
Because of this, the Zhenguo Government directly set up a porridge shed outside Shanhaiguan, and there were special personnel there to be responsible for receiving the victims.
As far as the eye can see, the scale of the city in the Qinglong area has begun to expand, almost along the railway line with Qinhuangdao, like spring shoots, many markets and workshops have sprung up, like a jade belt, so that this area has begun to accumulate six or seven hundred thousand people, this year's steel production is expected to exceed previous years, the expected steel output will reach 50,000 tons, and the output of coal may reach 700,000 tons.
But even so, it is obviously still insufficient, in the satellite city near Qinglong, several giant steel workshops put into operation by the Ye family have begun to prepare for starting, using the latest equipment, recruiting tens of thousands of craftsmen, and even in order to support the upcoming railway construction frenzy outside the Guan, a large number of steel craftsmen in the national capital of Jingshi Town have been transferred to the Guanwai, ready to start production at any time.
This is a world composed of a group of big and rough people, because of this, there are not too many rules, although the Zhenguo Gong is noble, but under Tang Bohu's suggestion, a set of ruling structures has also begun to emerge.
First of all, it is the establishment of the administrative center, the original Zhenguo Mansion is just a six-story small building, most of the official business was carried out here, but now, it has obviously become out of place, therefore, more than ten miles outside Qinglong City, the new Zhenguo Mansion will be built here.
This will be a magnificent building, covering an area of 100 acres, mainly the Ye family's office, discussion and living place, on the opposite side of the town and the country, then planned a small cabinet, the small cabinet is a six-story huge building, covering an area is not small, here will be the administrative center of the future town and the country, and in this vicinity has built various yamen, are all buildings, like the stars holding the moon, the town and the small cabinet around the central position, opposite, is a huge square, after all, is the suburbs, Moreover, the land in the desert is not worth much, so this square is 500,000 square meters, which is larger than the largest square in the world in later generations.
The civil architects of the institute now have a wealth of experience in large-scale projects, so they quickly came up with several sets of plans for this huge project.
In terms of laws and regulations, Ye Chunqiu began to abolish the kneeling law, that is, as long as he is out of the customs, even if he is the prince of Zhenguo, everyone is not allowed to kneel, just make a bow, of course, this is not necessarily that Ye Chunqiu has the intention to make something positive and progressive, just because, and now outside the customs, the way of life has begun to become extremely fast, Ye Chunqiu leads by example and abolishes some vulgar etiquette, which saves others from spending too much effort in this virtual courtesy.
You have to make people talk on their knees The so-called upward and downward effect, this is Ye Chunqiu's purpose.
Time flies in the blink of an eye, it's the end of the year, and every day here is changing, in this city from scratch, everyone is witnessing, there is almost no restraint here, there is no etiquette, it seems to be mixed, but in secret, there is a set of conventional, and at this time, Ye Chunqiu finally received a message from the Guannei, that is, Li Dongyang's judgment.
Li Dongyang was not exterminated by his family, or even beheaded, but was deposed and exiled for 3,000 miles.
Three thousand miles is just an imaginary number, but Ye Chunqiu still knows that Li Dongyang is finished.
If you really want to think about it, what Li Dongyang committed was a major crime of rebellion, and it stands to reason that he should be sentenced to death, but when the news came, Ye Chunqiu could still understand Zhu Houzhao's thoughts. aa2705221:
