Zhongdu Fengyang is now rich and lively, with vague signs of rushing to the south of the Yangtze River.

Originally, Emperor Taizu Gao had moved the rich people in Fengyang to give back to his hometown. Now, since Ma Shiying implemented the commercial tax collection and commercial encouragement policies in Fengyang, the commercial economy in the entire Fengyang area has not only not been declining due to taxation, but has become increasingly larger and larger.

In addition, the road from Beijing to Nanjing has been built to Fengyang Prefecture, and economic exchanges from Nanjing to Fengyang have become more active, and Fengyang has officially become the outer center of the Jiangnan Economic Circle.

When Zhu Youxiao returned north, he changed to a special four-wheeled carriage for the imperial carriage. On the avenue paved with gravel and gravel as the main materials, he could see many four-wheeled carriages carrying large carriages coming and going.

Even a convoy specializing in passenger transport appeared. Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, seemed not stupid. Stations had begun to be built in various stations under his subordinates.

Whenever you arrive at the inn, you can see a large wooden sign with the words "Dingyuan Station" written on it, and next to the wooden sign is a small wooden house.

There is a platform in front of the wooden house, with railings on the platform, and only one person can pass through the railing entrance, while an extended four-wheeled carriage that had just arrived was parked outside the railing.

The four-wheeled carriage is wrapped in iron sheets. Although it is not good-looking, it can block the rain. The iron sheets outside say inscriptions such as "Royal Industrial Company", "Made in Daming", "Hongda Carriage", "Dingyuan Civil Public Carriage", etc., and they are all formal scripts, and there is a trademark under each inscription, which is especially the largest of "Royal Industrial Company".

At this time, no one could make such a large carriage that could carry more than ten people, so Royal Industries was the dominant one, so there was no other brand.

But what surprised Zhu Youxiao even more was that there was a small advertisement for psoriasis on the so-called civilian public carriage.

Zhu Youxiao saw a spoiled advertising slogan "Dingyuan Xiangmanlou red card reveals skin, white milk, big baby, one silver dollar can spend a night**" behind the car.

And in front of the car, he already has the ability of a modern news editor. He wrote "Last night, the king of kings was seven times a night, and his concubine screamed repeatedly, and she actually took medicine!"

Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said nothing. No wonder some officials reported to impeach Ma Shiying after collecting commercial taxes in Fengyang, Fengyang's ethics collapsed. Now it seems that there is some truth. Ma Shiying didn't care about anything else in order to make money. The government-controlled civilian public carriage was blatantly posted a low-ranking advertisement.

However, this also shows Zhu Youxiao the tertiary industry in Fengyang area from another perspective. Especially this red light area has increased several times in the entire Fengyang area. Even several originally barren prefectures and counties suddenly become major tax counties due to this type of industry. Some counties even have commercial tax revenues that have exceeded those of other provinces.

According to the Dongchanglai News, the commercial exhibition in Fengyang area and the construction of Liangjing Avenue prompted many people from other places to flow into Fengyang to participate in economic construction. Many people even sold their land and turned into money from the distant places such as Huguang, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou to work in Fengyang Prefecture, in order to earn more money and get a home in glory.

These people who came from afar either stayed away from their wives and children, or were flamboyant in the late Ming Dynasty, so few people had the habit of saving money. Many of them were refugees. In addition, the entertainment method in this era was single, and under the pressure of life, in order to expel their monthly wages were mostly spent on these kiln sisters.

Even local newspapers and magazines in Fengyang have conducted surveys. Most of the romantic places in the entire Zhongdu area are purely traded, that is, most of them meet the needs of the lower class. Although there are also increased in elegance such as the Qinhuai River, the increase is obviously less than that of these simple kilns with one bed and one house.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao is very popular with this. On the one hand, it has indeed brought him a lot of fiscal revenue. Not only Fengyang, but also the Ministry of Revenue, the entire banking treasury is more abundant than last year.

On the other hand, the hormones of these people are released through this most primitive reproduction of human beings, and will not resist the exploitation of the court due to social contradictions and survival pressure.

I don’t know when proletarian thought will appear. Zhu Youxiao didn’t think so much about it, but the only thing he is now worried about is whether there will be a large number of negative existences during the Ming Dynasty’s transformation from farming society to capital society. If it sprung up like mushrooms after a rain in the romantic places, will there be a large number of forced prostitutes, and will it intensify the criminal temptation of buying and selling women and children? Do these women who rely on their bodies to obtain survival and material treatment have life and property guarantees?

Not every woman like this will become a famous prostitute who is chasing stars. After all, like in later generations, there are a few who really become big stars, and it is unknown how many people behind it have been exploited and bullied.

"Give the memorandum of Fengyang Governor Ma Shiying." Zhu Youxiao decided that it was necessary to remind Fengyang Governor Ma Shiying that he should not just spend money making, and while activate capital, he tried to minimize the sins caused by the original accumulation of capital.

There were two armed postmen standing next to the wooden house next to Dingyuan Station. There was only a small window in the room. There were people in the small windows, wearing pure heads and round-necked white clothes. They seemed to be the bookkeeper in the yamen. They were quite arrogant. They were queuing to more than a dozen people queuing outside the window to buy tickets: "The tickets to Shangsi are gone, and there are Fengyang people. You can go to Fengyang first and then transfer. Fengyang Mansion is a big station, so there must be twenty cents, and there is another road guide. If you like to buy it, don't you buy it!"

On the blackboard hanging outside the wooden house, the chalk is written with ten words from Dingyuan to Shouzhou, twenty words from Dingyuan to Fengyang, twenty words from Dingyuan to Shangsi, twenty words from Dingyuan to Shangsi, and there are also the time for the train and the last train, and the remaining tickets are even updated at any time.

But now most ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty are illiterate, and few people can recognize words, so many of them have to go to the small windows of the wooden house to ask questions.

The Book Office may have asked too many people, or many people do not understand this new thing, so they are a little angry, and these people can only swallow their anger in order to make it easier for them to travel far away.

"Tell Ma Shiying that I agree with him to build such larger carriages with the Royal Industrial Company for public service purposes, and also allow him to change the post station into a station, and change the avenues from official to civilian use. However, the attitude and quality of the clerks in these yamen should be strengthened. Since they have collected money from ordinary people, they have to serve well. They are like old men. How can they make money in the future? Isn't this forcing many people to walk out even if they have money?"

Zhu Youxiao gave a few instructions and ordered him to continue moving forward, but not long after he passed the bend, Zhu Youxiao's carriage stopped.
