Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 528 Altitude sickness
Under the order of his uncle Wu Qi, Wu Yuan brought his servants to Longyou.

He was immediately stunned by the prosperous scene in Longyou.

Fifth, he came from the bustling Yangzhou, and his uncle was in Yangzhou at that time as a Jianghuai renter and a Jiangnan salt and iron envoy, and his contacts were all big salt merchants in Yangzhou.

I have never seen such a prosperous scene in Fifth Yuan, but I was completely shocked in Wuwei City.

Bustling market, bustling city, thriving workshops, is this really Hexi?

Even Jiangnan is not so prosperous, right?
The fifth originally brought part of the fifth family's property to invest in Longyou. You must know that relying on Wu Qi's relationship, the fifth family quickly accumulated a lot of wealth in Yangzhou.

Although this amount of wealth is considered a large amount of money in Longyou, Fifth Yuan has a lot of views on business. He deeply knows that if a big family has no property, it will sooner or later rely on savings.

Fifth Yuan was looking for suitable investment opportunities in Wuwei, but found that there was no suitable industry for them to invest in the entire Wuwei City.

Nowadays, the most prosperous industry in Longyou is the workshop industry, but Wuyuan used to be a monopoly business selling salt, so it didn't know anything about the workshop business.

Fifth Yuan left his caravan in Wuwei City, and took two of his cronies to start looking for suitable investment opportunities in Longyou.

After taking a horse-drawn train from Wuwei, passing through Zhangye and entering Jiuquan, Fifth Yuan found a transport caravan outside Jiuquan and took a long-distance carriage to Guazhou.

Fifth Yuan saw the black smoke that lingered all day long at the Dashuixia Iron Works in Guazhou, and heard the roaring sound of forging machines in the iron works. After seeing the terrible output of the iron works, he had a feeling for Longyou's strength. fear.

The fifth family is proficient in the art of wealth and wealth. Although the fifth original is not good at reading, he has first-rate accounting skills.

When ordinary people see the Dashuixia Iron Works, they only see novel machines and galloping molten iron.

But Fifth Yuan calculated Longyou's terrifying steel output from it, and calculated the number of soldiers that could be armed.

The output of one Dashuixia Iron Works is more than that of Nanyang, a city of Datang Iron and Steel. And there are four iron works of the size of Dashuixia Iron Works in Longyou.

Such a terrifying steel production made Fifth Yuan deeply afraid, and he also had a new understanding of the strength of King Yue.

Fifth Yuan arrived in Shazhou in this way, but still did not find a suitable investment opportunity.

This is not a problem of the fifth original ability, but the workshop economy in Longyou, which is an industry with high barriers to entry.

And the grassroots officials in Longyou are under the control of the players, and now every village in the whole place is actively attracting investment, giving land to policies to develop local characteristic industries.

If the fifth origin does not choose a place to settle, it will be difficult to integrate into these local characteristic industries.

When he was in Guazhou City, Fifth Yuan accidentally heard the news about Tuyuhun.

He asked Dr. Cha in surprise, and got the super news that the king of Yue eliminated Shang Qixin'er, the host of Tubo, and occupied the Tuyuhun area!
Why didn't Guannei know about this big victory?

Could it be that the king of Yue is bragging?

But Fifth Yuan asked many passers-by, and all got the same answer. Some people even found Fifth Yuan newspapers during the war.

After reading the detailed report, Fifth Yuan finally believed that King Yue relied on Longyou Hexi to completely defeat Tubo's host country, and directly annexed the Tuyuhun area.

Although Fifth Yuan is not good at reading, he also understands the strength of the Tubo people under the guidance of his uncle.

There are only two big countries around Datang that can look at Datang at the same level, or even be hostile to Datang, Tubo and Uighur.

Now that the Uighurs are submissive, Tubo is the biggest threat to the Tang Dynasty.

The King of Yue annexed such a large area as Tubo, but he did not report victory to Guanzhong.

This shows what?
Fifth Yuan did not dare to think about it.

He rushed to Shazhou in a hurry, but he heard that this year King Yue was celebrating the New Year in Beiting Duhu Mansion, and after temporarily not returning to Shazhou City, Fifth Yuan became confused again.

But thinking of his uncle's great trust, Wu Yuanqiang cheered up and continued to look for suitable investment opportunities in Shazhou City.

But the result still disappoints Fifth Yuan. The workshops in Shazhou are still saturated, and there is no opportunity for investment.

At this time, Fifth Yuan read the news from the "Shazhou Daily" that Qin Chuan, Tuyuhun's consolation envoy, was attracting investment to the Longyou area recently.

Although Fifth Yuan didn't understand the meaning of the word investment promotion, it probably meant attracting investment.

Holding the money in his hand, seeing that Longyou had no chance, Wuyuan bought a steam train ticket in Shazhou North according to the newspaper's guidance, and took the train to Tuyuhun to try his luck.

After getting in the car, Fifth Yuan noticed Yun Niang, a young woman in a new Tang suit.

Women in Longyou like to show their faces, and there are even quite a few women who open shops and do business.

But after all, long-distance travel in this era is still very risky, and it is a wild area like Tuyuhun.

Fifth Yuan started talking to Yun Niang and asked her about her intention to go to Tuyuhun.

At this time, Yang Chunsheng gave Yun Niang a wink, and Yun Niang said with a smile: "I have a relative who runs a dyeing workshop in Jinkou City. He sent a letter asking us, my siblings, to help."

Fifth Yuan was still a little puzzled, the tickets for this class of seats were not cheap, and although Yun Niang was dressed simply, the fabric of the clothes showed that she was a wealthy person.

Moreover, Yunniang's behavior and conversation are not ordinary girls, and Wu Yuan still doesn't believe that her relatives opened a dyeing workshop to take refuge.

But the other party didn't want to talk about it, and it was inconvenient for him to continue to inquire.

Wuyuan looked at the scenery outside the window and said, "Is the business in Tuyuhun easy to do? To tell you the truth, my family is originally from the capital, and the elders of the family wanted to develop in Longyou, but they didn't find a good business all the way. I wonder if Tuyuhun will have a chance."

Looking at the silk robe on Fifth Yuan, Yunniang guessed that he was a descendant of a rich family in the Central Plains.

But after training in the pharmaceutical workshop, Yunniang didn't have much respect for the children of these big families.

Compared with gods and couples like Zhao Chen and Wang Xue, these local wealthy families are local tyrants who are down to earth.

But seeing Fifth Yuan’s knowledge is good, Yun Niang wanted to give him some advice, so she combined some of Wang Xue’s views on Tuyuhun’s development with her, and said to Fifth Yuan:
"Tuyuhun is the most profitable now to start mining. However, to open a mine, you need to declare the mining license of the comfort embassy and buy slaves. Nowadays, most of the prisoners in Tuyuhun are slaves in major mines. If there is no war recently, the price of slaves will be even higher. Continue to go higher. Now it’s not worthwhile to buy mines and start mines.”

Fifth Yuan was secretly startled, it seems that Longyou really won a big victory against Tuyuhun, he actually captured so many soldiers of Tuyuhun and sent them to the mine as slaves, and from Yunniang's tone, the number of these slaves was quite a lot, so many that they could The point of buying and selling in the slave market.

After listening to Yunniang's words, Wuyuan became even more convinced that she was not a woman from an ordinary family, and hurriedly cupped his hands and asked, "Then, my lady, what other projects are suitable for investment in Tuyuhun?"

Yun Niang thought for a while and said: "There is a saying in our station called 'If you want to get rich, build roads first', which refers to the importance of transportation. If there are really a large number of workshops entering Tuyuhun, then the matching Traffic roads must be vigorously developed.”

"If Fifth Langjun really has this strength, you might as well try in the two directions of road building and transportation."

Fifth Yuan hurriedly wrote it down, what Yunniang said was indeed true, and the products would naturally be transported out after they were produced.

Large ore has its own transport fleet, but a large number of small and medium workshops may not necessarily set up a dedicated transport fleet.

This is really a business opportunity, Fifth Yuan hurriedly said sincerely: "Thank you, little lady, for your suggestion!"

During the next journey, Fifth Yuan and Yun Niang chatted passionately.

Fifth Yuan was determined to understand Longyou's new look, and wanted to know more about Longyou's changes.

Besides Yunniang's playmates in the village since she was young, Yunniang didn't meet many people after she came to the workshop. Fifth Yuan, a young man who has traveled to many places, also made Yunniang very excited when he talked about what he had seen and heard in other places. of interest.

Slowly, or the speed gradually slowed down, and at this time the train began to climb up the hill.

As the altitude gradually increased, Fifth Yuan's breathing gradually increased.

Seeing his appearance, Yun Niang quickly said, "Stop talking, adjust your breathing and relax your body."

Fifth Yuan hurriedly adjusted his breathing according to Yunniang's method, and the chest tightness gradually disappeared.

Many other passengers in the same carriage also had the same reaction as Fifth Yuan.

After the first wave of reactions passed, Fifth Yuan asked and answered, "Yunniang, what happened just now?"

Yun Niang said: "This is altitude sickness. From a low-altitude place to a high-altitude place, the symptoms of acclimatization due to the reduction of low-pressure oxygen appear. It seems that your reaction is not strong."

Wu Wuyuan couldn't understand what Yunniang said at all, but he did feel a lot better according to Yunniang's method just now.

Yun Niang continued: "The altitude of Jinkou City is not high. After you get off the car, don't exercise vigorously. Rest in the hotel for a while before going out. You will be fine when your body adapts."

"If you have severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing, you should leave Jinkou City by car immediately."

Fifth Yuan nodded quickly, no wonder the population of Tuyuhun has always been small, so the environment in this place is so bad.

Yunniang looked and found that half of the people in the carriage had more or less altitude sickness, but Yunniang herself was in good health and did not suffer from altitude sickness.

From this point of view, the market for Rhodiola medicine is still very wide, and Yunniang is more confident about this trip.
