Start a Ming Dynasty plane

Chapter 543
"County Honor."

When Li Chaosheng was thinking about the many disasters and disasters after the Ming Dynasty, Gu Zi knocked on the door and came in with a report in his hand.

"Well, what happened?"

"This is the post-disaster reconstruction situation in our county, please have a look at it."

Li Chaosheng took the report and read it, and saw that the report explained in detail the post-disaster reconstruction of Lantian this month. Of course, the most important thing was to rebuild houses for the victims, and the area where the houses were concentrated was the central old city of Lantian County.

"Ok?"

Li Chaosheng watched and suddenly frowned, and looked at Gu Zi, Gu Zi looked at Li Chaosheng in a daze and said, "Is there anything wrong with the county magistrate?"

Li Chaosheng pointed to the numbers on the report and said: "I remember that the earthquake in our county only destroyed about 2000 houses in total. How come more than [-] houses were rebuilt this time?"

After hearing this, Gu Zi smiled wryly and said: "The county lord is like this. After learning that we are going to rebuild houses for the common people, those people who are also in the old city but whose houses were not destroyed by the earthquake quit. They feel the same. In the old city, people whose houses were knocked down by the earthquake can rebuild their houses, why can't they, so overnight, hundreds of houses collapsed in Lantian."

Li Chaosheng frowned slightly when he heard this, and Gu Zi said, "You asked the Political Department to be responsible for this matter. Once the Political Department made a plan, it decided to follow suit, and posted a notice saying that the county government will also be responsible for rebuilding the houses that collapsed later. "

"So it was another night. The houses of thousands of families in the entire old city collapsed, and the entire old city was almost flattened, so the Political Department was completely rebuilt."

Li Chaosheng frowned when he heard this, and said, "Isn't this encouraging the common people to demolish their houses? Go and call Guo Bao, and I'll ask what's going on."

"Yes."

Gu Zi immediately went to find Guo Bao.

"That's right, Xian Zun, I just deliberately let the people in the old city demolish the house."

Gu Zi said to Li Chaosheng, Li Chaosheng frowned slightly when he heard this, and said, "Why?"

"Hey, there are many benefits. Let me tell you, the county lord. The benefits have two parts. The first part is to promote the economic development of Lantian. The construction of Lantian has stopped in recent years. The bricks and tiles accumulated in our brick factory and kiln are still there. There are mountains of cement, and the trees and other construction materials that the people have cut down from the Qinling Mountains have filled the warehouses. Lay off staff when difficulties arise, causing a large number of people in Lantian to lose their jobs, this is something our Political Department needs to worry about."

"But this time, the people spontaneously knocked down all the houses in the old city. We need to spend a lot of budget to help them rebuild, but these budgets actually flow back to brick factories, cement factories, lumberyards, and construction workers. Here, this is equivalent to indirect relief, which is more useful than sending them money directly."

"The bricks and tiles are made of mud. Lantian has no shortage of these things. As long as the brick factory, cement factory, and lumber mill are ordered to increase production, they will need workers. This will solve part of the employment pressure in Lantian, so that workers When it works, it can turn the dirt into money, the wealth of our Lantian people, and solve many problems in the development of Lantian. I think this is a good deal.”

"What does the county respect think?"

Guo Bao looked at Li Chaosheng, and Li Chaosheng nodded slightly. This is indeed a solution. The construction industry can drive the long-term and stable development of other industries. This strategy has been used by China for decades, and real estate rescue is indeed a feasible solution.

As for the money sent out, as long as the Lantian people work hard, they will be able to pay back in a few months. Li Chaosheng said: "It makes sense. By the way, I spent a lot of money this time, right?"

After hearing this, Guo Bao said, "It took some money, but it didn't cost as much as we earned."

"Huh? Did you make money?"

Li Chaosheng looked at Guo Bao suspiciously, and Guo Bao smiled at this moment: "This is the second benefit of encouraging people in the old urban areas to rebuild their houses."

"In terms of the ground, the ground in the old city is actually better than the new city we built, but because of these old and small buildings that have prevented the development of this area, this earthquake is just an opportunity, and the old city can just be re-planned For a moment, I took the construction department to a field inspection, and found that if you want better planning and maximize the use of land area, you must knock down the houses in the old city and rebuild them. However, there are still many houses in the old city that have not collapsed. This caused me and the Ministry of Construction a headache."

"Later, it happened that someone deliberately knocked down their old house and wanted the government to help build a new one. I followed the plan and posted a notice to encourage this kind of practice. Come to our government department to report that there was an earthquake aftershock that knocked down our house, of course we knew it was false, but we still agreed.”

"So the demolition work of the entire old city was completed without any one of us. In this way, the land in the old city is a blank sheet of paper. After the final planning, our Political Department and the Construction Department have made all the land here The houses with a unified format have been built, which not only solves the accommodation problem for everyone in the old city, but also saves about 30.00% of the usable land area, which is 30.00% of the usable area of ​​the main city area. We are already planning to build on this land A business circle, and several farmers markets and high-end residential areas can be built along the way."

"As long as the construction of these places is completed, they will be our government's cash cow in the future, and the money they earn will be dozens or hundreds of times what they pay today. So although this project cost some money, it will definitely be a big profit in the future. earned."

"Saving 30.00% of the land use area? How can you save so much?"

Guo Baodao: "Well, when the old city was being built, the planning was very unreasonable. There were many places where the space was folded, so a lot of land was naturally obtained after re-planning. Another important reason is that the houses we built were all It is a standard blue-brick and red-tiled house, and each family has a three-point yard, while many old and small yards used to be half an acre or even larger, and we saved a lot of this part."

"You shrunk the yard?"

Li Chaosheng frowned slightly, and Guo Bao said: "Well, otherwise, such a large piece of land would not be saved, and not only the yard is reduced, but all our houses are of the same size."

"They're all about the same size? In the past, some people's houses might be [-] square meters, some people's houses were [-] square meters, and some people were [-] square meters. If you cut it across the board, how do you allocate it?"

"Hey, to be honest, it was really difficult at the time, but fortunately, there was an expert, a professor in the college said that reading a divine book in the library could solve this problem, and we really succeeded in solving the problem by following the law."

"what book?"

Li Chaosheng was also curious, and Guo Bao said: "It's a very out-of-the-ordinary book called the Urban House Demolition Subsidy Regulations, or something. Anyway, it's a subsidy based on the flat. Our standard house is [-] square meters, so we will follow this As a basis, if the area is less than [-] square meters, make up according to [-] square meters. If it is larger than [-] square meters, there are two solutions. You can ask for one more suite, but if the area is less than two suites, the insufficient part must be made up with money, or If they don’t want a house, the government will use money to make up for the extra part.”

After listening to Guo Bao's introduction, Li Chaosheng patted his head. It was a very familiar allocation plan. I have to say that the library of this college is really a treasure house.

After listening to Guo Bao's words, Li Chaosheng said, "Well, you handled this matter very well."

After Li Chaosheng said this, Guo Bao said with a smile: "Master, if possible, I suggest that we can promote this practice in the whole county and build more houses. This will not only revitalize brick factories, cement factories and other factories, It can even improve the lives of the people in Lantian. During the slack season, people can be encouraged to join construction projects and work to subsidize their families.”

Hearing this, Li Chaosheng raised his head and glanced at Guo Bao, then sighed and said, "Guo Bao, your idea is very good, but it's too early, Lantian has not yet reached the point of full economicalization, and building a house will be difficult." The rapid prosperity of the economy will also lead to the lag of other industries. Now the world is not yet unified, and there will be countless wars to be fought in the future. If we invest all our money in real estate, how to develop military industry and other industries? Lantian's current economy cannot support full-scale real estate, so this kind of thing is okay occasionally. If it is used as the focus of Lantian's economic development for a long time, the bubble will be very serious, and the impact will be great at that time It’s not even a star.”

Guo Bao was taken aback when he heard this, then he lowered his head and said, "It's a humble job that has entered rashly."

Li Chaosheng said: "This earthquake is a natural disaster. If you can turn the impact of the natural disaster into a growth point for the Lantian economy, you have the ability, but this ability cannot only be used for short-term interests. , we must have a long-term vision and look at the development of Lantian systematically. The talents of Lantian have solved the problem of food and clothing. We should develop agriculture, industry, and technology instead of focusing on real estate. Real estate can bring money quickly, but He cannot fundamentally bring happiness to the common people, at least not now."

After Li Chaosheng said this, he looked at Guo Bao and said, "You are a smart person, and you immediately saw the development prospects of real estate, but this is not the right way, at least not now, and we will not consider you until we have a lot of resources in the future. time for this plan."

After Li Chaosheng said this, he stretched his waist and said, "Oh, I'm tired from sitting. By the way, did we reply to the memorial we sent to the court last time?"

Guo Bao reacted after hearing this, and said with a strange expression: "No."

"Oh, the chief envoys in other regions didn't reply either?"

Guo Bao shook his head and said, "Yes, other provinces have them, but our Lantian doesn't have them."

"Well, what's going on here? Could it be that Chongzhen looked down on me, Li?"

Li Chaosheng stretched his muscles and bones, looked at Guo Bao and asked, Guo Bao smiled wryly when he heard this, and said, "The county lord, it's not that I look down on you, but I look down on you too much."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean?"

Guo Baodao: "After receiving your memorial, Emperor Chongzhen locked himself in the imperial study room and stayed up all night. It is said that during the period, he also called Cao Huachun, Wang Chengen and other confidant eunuchs into the room, and held candlelight talks for an hour. The father-in-law just came out of the imperial study, and the faces of the two of them were not good-looking. As for the content of the conversation, our status is too low, so we didn't hear it. Identity went to exchange a cup of hot tea for Chongzhen."

"The secret agent reported that Chongzhen was unkempt at the time, and he didn't even care that his hair was messed up. He kept saying: Li Chaosheng, Li Chaosheng!"

"In the end, it was Empress Zhou who re-washed Chongzhen's hair. Even so, Chongzhen didn't sleep all night. In the early morning of the next day, he couldn't wait to summon the cabinet ministers to discuss the matter. The content is unknown, but they discussed it for half an hour. In the early court, Chongzhen announced a disaster relief plan for the resurgence of the earth dragon in the northwest region."

"Chongzhen cried bitterly in the court hall, saying that Dilong turned over because of his bad behavior. He voluntarily fasted for one month to pray for the people of the world. In addition, Henan, Hebei, Hubei, Sichuan and other disaster-stricken areas exempted [-]% of taxes to relieve the people. Suffering, as for our Lantian."

Guo Bao paused at this point, then sighed and said: "Chongzhen didn't mention a word."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, be careful."

Li Chaosheng said with a smile, and then said: "Oh, yes, the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty plot against him, and there are bandits and slaves outside, which is enough for the emperor to worry about. Let's not mess with him." The emperor is angry, if he doesn’t give us a tax reduction or exemption, let’s not reduce or reduce it, so as to make him feel that we are plotting against him.”

Guo Baodao: "We have been paying taxes to Chongzhen like this. Since Chongzhen decided to ignore us, can we also ignore him and counter him? Force him to show an attitude."

After hearing Guo Bao's words, Gu Zi, who had been silent on the sidelines, couldn't help but said: "Yes, the county lord, Chongzhen, is too unreasonable, and the county lord condescended to write a memorial to fool him, even if he If you know it's fake, you should show it. Others have reduced their taxes by [-]%, and if we don't want [-]%, even if we reduce them by [-]%, he can be a man. What's the point of him being silent and pretending that we don't exist?"

"Since he is not benevolent, no wonder we are unrighteous. Damn, why don't we just cut off his taxes? I don't think our taxes are gone. What did Chongzhen use to support the army, what to use to support the corrupt officials of the Manchu Dynasty, what to take Putting on the show, I really don't know what to do with the magistrate, I'm so mad!"

Gu Zi roared angrily at the side, while Guo Bao looked at Li Chaosheng and said, "Xianzun, I think what Gu Zi said makes sense, since Chongzhen treats us as non-existent, we also treat him as non-existent, and this year's taxation is also the same." A lot of money and food, you say so."
