Chapter 769

Looking at the history of mankind, we will find that the most enterprising people in all major civilizations are precisely merchants.

They traveled north and south, across mountains and mountains, and realized the earliest communication.

In history, the rise of the Arab Empire and the rise of the Anza people all originated from commerce.

Of course, everything in the world has a limit.

Yang Zheng will naturally put farming and animal husbandry first, but he will not suppress business too much. It is best to let them go out and become the tentacles of the Great Qin Empire, find out where there is money and where there is interest, and then Great Qin will infiltrate there !
But that's for later.

The most important thing right now is to sell the house.

"The houses in the imperial capital can be sold not only in China, but also in the Western Regions, Central Plains, and Jiangdong!" Yang Zheng took a bigger step.

Although the countries in the Western Regions are small, the royal family is rich and has been on the Silk Road for hundreds of years. Moreover, the Western Regions in this era are by no means poor, with melons and fruits everywhere, and cattle and sheep all over the mountains and rivers.

Not to mention the veteran gentry in the Central Plains.

After the Battle of Hedong, the general situation of the world has become clear, so I am not afraid that they will not come.

The sense of smell of the gentry is absolutely keen, and I heard that Sima Yan is trying to move the capital to Yecheng.

This is precisely another big incentive for selling houses in Xindu.

Once the capital is moved, the gentry's confidence in the Sima family will decline, and capital will flow to Qin.

That is to use the money of the Central Plains gentry to fight the Central Plains.

It's such a bargain.

"If someone hoards mansions and sells them after the whole country is unified, wouldn't it make all the money in the world?" Wei Guan is indeed the top strategist of this era, and he can see the trick at a glance.

With the current state of the Qin Dynasty, it is not afraid that the mansion in Xindu will not be sold.

"It's easy to handle, and a mansion tax of [-]% is collected every year!" From the ruler's point of view, this thing is simply a sharp weapon...

It's time to collect taxes and harvest another wave.

Wei Guan was amazed, "Your Majesty's talent is unmatched by anyone in the world."

This flattery... feels a little ironic...

Little stars of admiration appeared in Prince Yang Xu's eyes.

In fact, this is a common practice in later generations of countries. Yang Zheng was so poor that he drank the northwest wind, so he could only pick it up and use it.

Ji Kang shook his head when he heard this, "Xindu is the land of great fortune in Qin Dynasty. Your Majesty can't just sell it to gentry and merchants, but let the common people enjoy some of it."

Being able to say this shows that Ji Kang still has some conscience, which is much better than the experts of later generations.

In fact, not all the celebrities in this era are those who try to catch fame.

"The plower has his fields, and the weaver has his clothes. Of course, all the people and soldiers who work for the Great Qin can also live in the new capital. They can build a large number of folk workshops in the west city, and rent ten shi of grain to the people every year."

According to the scale of Chang'an, it is no problem to live in 30 to [-] households.

A household with ten shi of grain is equivalent to two or three million shi of grain a year.

According to the land equalization system of the Great Qin Dynasty, adult men have [-] mu of land, women have [-] mu of land, and one mu yields three shi of millet and two shi of wheat. There are four to five people in a family. Calculated as the minimum, there is [-] mu of land.

Ten stones of grain is not difficult, and the common people can afford it.

Moreover, after moving to Chang'an, they can also do some handicrafts, and do some small business during the slack season, so the pressure of survival is not great.

After the unification of the world, Yang Zheng will gradually return to the level of [-] taxes.

Although it is not as good as the thirty-one tax in the Han Dynasty, it can be regarded as a little light and light.

"The folk square can't be built too gorgeously, it can shelter from the wind and rain, and it should be spacious, bright and clean." Yang Zheng reminded.

Yang Xu was puzzled, "Father, why is this?"

Wei Guan cupped his hands and said, "I want to report to the crown prince, if the folk houses are built too well, the rich and powerful will seize the houses, and the people will not be able to live there."

"Student understands." Yang Xu returned the salute to Wei Guan.

In this way, the construction period and investment are also saved.

According to Ji Kang's method, it is unrealistic to make the whole new capital magnificent.

Yang Zheng thinks that it is enough to have a structure, after all the dignitaries will remodel the mansion according to their own ideas.

Ordinary people will clean up by themselves.

"The structure can be opened up a bit more. Outside the new capital city, in a place with beautiful scenery, some manors can be built and sold to meritorious officials at a high price in the future." Since you want to harvest, you might as well take a bigger step.

The tyrants of the gentry want to reap, and so do the nobles.

Liu Heng can buy two stunning orchids, which shows that this group of people still has purchasing power.

Ordinary orchids are not cheap, let alone the two that Liu Heng bought.

In Chang'an City, many Xunjiu have already started to buy farmhouses...

"Some small towns can also be built in some open places outside the city. First, they can be used for defense. Second, they can prepare residences for the nobles of the Central Plains in advance!"

After the unification of the world, the population in Guanzhong will definitely increase dramatically, so prepare in advance to avoid being in a hurry.

Ji Kang stared blankly at Yang Zheng, his eyes were both weird and surprised...

The "surprise" brought to him today was indeed too much.

But this is also a way to unify the world as soon as possible, so as to preserve more vitality and reduce the burden on the people.

"Then strive to live in Xindu by the end of this year!" Yang Zheng stared at Ji Kang and said.

Moving to Xindu at the end of the year, 10,000+ slaves can also be released as productive forces, join the Tuntian Division, and vigorously cultivate the fertile land in Nanyang.

The farther to the east, the more fertile the land.

Hedong, Hongnong, and Nanyang are all good places, and they have been granaries since ancient times.

During the Han Dynasty, Nanyang was one of the most affluent areas in the world. The land was fertile and oily, and the population was as large as a cow's hair. The key was the large iron mines, which have continued from Han in the Warring States Period to the present.

There is also the Great Salt Pond in Hedong, which is also an inexhaustible source of income.

Development is the last word.

Even Sima Yan in history could make a simple version of "Taikang Prosperity", Yang Zheng felt that it should not be difficult to come up with an enhanced version.

The world has been in chaos for so many years, and people's minds are in order.

"The minister leads the decree!" Ji Kang cupped his hands and said.

According to Yang Zheng's approach, the new capital has actually been built.

Other details and imperfections can be improved while living.

Wei Guan said: "Since it is the new capital, please give me a name from Your Majesty."

Yang Zheng didn't expect to go here.

The pre-Qin capital city was named Xianyang, and the Han capital city was named Chang'an.

Since it is a new capital, of course it needs a new name.

Yang Zheng thought about it for a long time, and felt that the ink in his stomach was so pitiful. If he came up with the name of a soil turtle, he might as well not take it. Looking at the people around him, Yang Zheng touched Yang Xu's head, "Xu'er , you take one."

Yang Xu thought for a moment, and said crisply: "How about calling it Daxing? Chang'an is to Daxing, one quiet and one moving."

He directly targeted Chang'an City.

Yang Zheng was taken aback, feeling that the name Daxing sounded familiar.

But it does echo the current situation in Qin.

Isn't prosperity a sign of Daxing?

The flattery of the people around me has already been delivered.

"The prince is quick-witted!"

Even Ji Kang nodded, "The name of Daxing fits well with the state of Qin and has far-reaching implications."

Ji Kang agrees, then there is no problem.

Yang Zheng laughed and said, "It's called Daxing!"
