Chapter 494(1/2)
"Sir, I'm wrong! According to my plan, the entire project costs not millions of chunks of money, but millions of chunks of money."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
My chin fell to the ground in shock.
Yan Mu and Chang Gui are Yan Yunge's original direct descendants.
The two of them are anxious!
In order to build a city, does the lady want to put all the family foundation accumulated over the years into it?
Not worth it!
There is no need to do this!
You can just build a straw shed and you can still deal with it.
It's just that it leaks when it rains, it's too hot when it's hot, and it's too cold when it's winter...
It doesn't matter!
They all came from hard days, so there is no need to build any blue brick houses.
That is a house that landlords can only live in!
Yanmu took the lead in persuading.
He said with great thoughts, "Madam, can you slow down your pace? Everyone is not in a hurry. It is enough to build a city in three to five years."
Chang Gui also hurriedly said, "Yes, yes! Moreover, there is no need to build this outer city so big. There is no need to build such a wide street. There is also a schoolhouse, which is too large and it is too expensive. If you reduce all of it, you can save a lot of money."
The butler Wen Zhong is also very worried.
He was worried that his wife would stick the young master's wife book in.
At that time, the young master will not even have money to raise soldiers and people, so what should I do?
Therefore, he also joined the persuasion team, "Madam, think twice! Even if the wife makes a fortune in the capital, she should save some money. There are too many local committees who spend money. During the autumn harvest, they have to pay a tax to the court. It is best to be thrifty and do whatever it takes to stay in the family."
Mr. Ji nodded repeatedly, and he agreed with what everyone said.
"I also think that the wife shouldn't have spread the stall so big from the beginning. Everything is really hard to do. I'll do it for my wife, build roads, lay bridges, build embankments, clear wasteland, seeds, repair city walls, streets, raise soldiers, raise government offices, raise princess's mansion... The daily expenses are astronomical. Then tens of thousands of civilian craftsmen to build cities, no matter how much money you have, you can't stand the expenses! Madam thinks twice!"
After listening to them, Yan Yunge laughed, "Who said he would use my own money to subsidize the project?"
Huh?
What does this mean?
"Mrs. Don't pay for money. Do you want the craftsmen to work hungry?"
Yan Yunge smiled and said, "There are so many big merchants in the world who want money, goods, and people. My wife doesn't need to leave them, and she puts money on building the city walls by herself. Am I crazy?"
"But, the money of the big merchants is not the wife's money. How could they take the initiative to pay for the wife to build the city wall? The wife is not talking to her sleep!"
Yan Yunge looked into the distance, waiting for nothing to be done.
This is a poor place, and a land full of hope and vitality.
She said: "As long as there is enough profit, all the merchants in the world will flock to Pingyang County and contribute money and efforts to help my wife build this city together."
Everyone looked at each other, not understanding.
Yan Yunge smiled, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, the person I invited is on the way. Soon you will understand what Mrs. This means."
...
In recent years, natural disasters and man-made disasters have been frequent, and bandits and thieves have never stopped one after another.
From south to north, they are all fleeing famines.
Especially the vast northern land, it is even more terrible.
I dare not say that there is no chicken crowing for thousands of miles, and it has not reached that level.
But being uninhabited for hundreds of miles is already a common saying.
In many counties, the population is dead and the escape is fleeing...
There are only a thousand and eight hundred people left in such a large county.
Even the local powerful people had to give up the land they had been operating for generations and relocate to the south.
The dynasty is heading for the end.
Although many people are unwilling to admit this, after all, the emperor is still there, the court is still there, and the army is still there...
But, in fact, the more rebels are suppressing more and more.
The rebels from all walks of life are reviving, and the more they are getting more and more serious.
Why?
Because the common people have no way to survive, they will either be killed by thieves or have to surrender to the thief.
More people were driven by rebels and embarked on the road of killing officials and rebelling.
However, things seem to have changed a little bit.
Since the beginning of spring, there have been more notices from various checkpoints, ferries, docks, roadside tea shops, and cities, as well as special explanations for the contents of the notice.
The notice is very simple, recruiting people!
Recruiting young and strong people, both men and women need to.
If you have a skill, you will be given priority.
Working location: Pingyang County!
"Where is Pingyang County?"
"I don't know!"
"I don't even know the place, how to apply for it? I don't know how the treatment is. It's not a lie."
"Tell you, Pingyang County, it is only three or five hundred miles away from this place. It is the fief of Princess Pingyang, and the General of the Northern Army serves as the county magistrate. If you want to go, go to the Chema Shop in front. Every ten days, vehicles will go to Pingyang County."
When they heard the distance between three or five hundred miles, the onlookers shook their heads.
“Too far!”
It is hard to leave your hometown, and not everyone has the courage to leave their hometown and go out to make a living.
However, some people don’t care about distance, they only care about whether they can live.
Those who fled, those who fled, those who escaped from military disasters...
They carefully inquired about the news about Pingyang County, and then went to Chema Shop to inquire.
The clerk at the Chema Shop told them, "It's not a good idea to go to Pingyang County. The Princess' Mansion includes all car and horse fees and food and accommodation fees. Let's make it clear first. The Princess' Mansion only carries one meal a day and one penny-money shop. If you want to have a good meal and stay, you have to pay for it yourself.
When you arrive in Pingyang County, if you are not satisfied and don’t want to work there, and if you want to take a taxi back, you have to pay for the carriage, food and accommodation costs yourself.
To tell you the truth, our carriage store has sent three groups of people over, and many of them are hawkers who are holding goods. I heard that the work there is a daily settlement, and the civilian craftsmen have spare money at hand, so they can't lose money when they go there to do some small business."
"Someone really went?"
"Hey, such a big thing, can you still deceive you? Ask everywhere, we have been doing local carriages for decades, and have always kept our duty and never hurt people. Look, this is the next group of people going to Pingyang County. Fifty people have signed up, twenty people are in one car, and ten people come, and then set off with three cars."
"Didn't you say it's a trip every ten days?"
"If there are too many people, it doesn't take ten days, and there are also trips every three or five days. If there are too few people, it's a ten day. Princess Pingyang's mansion is ready to pay. As long as we get there smoothly and complete the procedures, we can get the money."
"So you can make sure you make a profit without losing money."
"What you earn is hard money. Otherwise, why don't the wealthy families do business? It's tiring! It takes several days to travel to Pingyang County. When the weather is bad, it's also possible to delay ten or half a month on the road. Fortunately, roads are being built in Pingyang County. Once the road is repaired, it can save a lot of trouble."
"If you have the skills, you can't lose money when you go to Pingyang County. If you don't have skills, you can do some small business. If you don't have anything, you can't be hungry. If you don't want to work hard work and have no ability, don't go and waste food."
This is true, man.
Pingyang County can not raise idle people.
Unless you have the ability to be an idle person, such as having money, such as having power...
There is another type that requires great knowledge and can make people willing to offer it.
There is nothing, so it’s better to rely on skills or strength to make a living!
...
The teahouse opposite the Chema Shop.
A fat man wearing gold and silver, with a nouveau riche temperament, looks round and smooth, and is quite blessed.
In this season, the weather is warm and cold, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, and it is extremely easy to get sick and catch a cold.
As the so-called flu season.
The fat man held a paper fan in his hand, spread it out, and waved towards his big face.
I'm really not afraid of the cold!
Not afraid of getting sick.
