Chapter 1526 The Beginning of the Myth
Qingyang didn't know what he was intending to do, but every time he made a move, he pushed Yao Kingdom one step closer to the edge of the cliff.
From this perspective, He Xiao and she seem to be doing the same thing:
Overthrow the Yao Kingdom!
Is this possible?
What deep hatred is there between him and King Yao? If his actions were just instructed by others, or if he was just carrying out a mission, he would not have such a strong initiative.
She could feel He Xiao's drive and ambition.
So, should she revise her plan and methods? Qingyang was lost in thought for a long time, until the car stopped and Yuan Xuan reported:
"Palace Master, we are back to Youhu Lake."
……
Once the myth of getting rich begins to spread, the frenzy among the people begins.
The expansion of the new city has only been underway for a month, and the few blocks that have been opened are still on the drawings. The actual terrain has not yet been built, but the price of residential land has already tripled!
At first, it was the government that raised the prices on its own, but now it was a spontaneous craze among the people.
Even Zhao Song, the palace guard commander assigned by King Yao to He Lingchuan, bought seven residential plots. According to the regulations, each household was only allowed to buy four plots, but as a member of the palace, he had a way to easily break the regulations.
Gu Xuan and the others were already very familiar with He Lingchuan. Once, after drinking too much, they couldn't help but ask:
"How much land did Brother He buy?"
He Lingchuan's method of operating Youhu Villa was impressive. How could such a money-making person miss this good opportunity to expand Tianshui?
Wouldn't it be possible to return with a full load in the storm?
He Lingchuan smiled and said, "I can't compete with the people for profits, so I just bought five or seven plots of land."
No one believes it.
Only five or seven dollars?
Gu Xuan pointed at Yu Wenxu and said, "I don't believe it, his family bought fifty pieces!"
Fan Shuang suddenly realized. So it was the Yuwen family who bought the fifty plots of land?
Yuwen Xu was stunned and immediately counterattacked: "Your family didn't buy it, right?"
Gu Xuan smiled and raised a finger: "This is the only amount I have at home."
Yuwen Xu: "Ah, don't listen to him. His family didn't buy a store, they just bought the whole street."
All the noble families in front of him had submitted their letters of allegiance to King Yao, and thus had secured a position in the new city project. Now they were all thriving and well off.
He Lingchuan said leisurely: "You two families are deeply trusted by the king, and your foundation is so deep! How can I compare with you?"
This was noted by someone who later went to the government office to investigate.
Sure enough, He Xiao bought seven pieces of land, all in Shanghu District.
There are not many of them, but they are large in area and high in quality. Shanghu District is close to Youhu Villa, and is separated from this high-end official residence by a Mangxi River. It also has pleasant scenery and convenience.
The Upper Lake District is also home to many government offices and public facilities.
If Youhu Villa is for high-ranking officials to live in, then Shanghu District will be a gathering place for the wealthy in the future.
In fact, He Lingchuan had no interest in purchasing the land in Tianshui City. After all, he knew in his heart that he might not have to pay for it in the future. But he knew that his every move in public would be seen by those with ulterior motives. Tianshui New City was developing vigorously, and he was the consultant of the expansion project. It would be strange if he did not buy a piece of land.
It seemed as if he himself was not optimistic about the new city.
Just for fun, buy a few pieces.
Jing Yuanxun asked curiously, "Why don't you get a few more pieces? You are the leader of the expansion team."
"Master You is the boss, I'm just a small governor."
When everyone heard this, they let out a long "tsk".
He was nominally the "governor", but in reality he was the person in charge of the eastward expansion project. He could get everything except the power to sign. He Xiao's ability to make money made King Yao wary. He was afraid that this man would come up with some pretext to siphon all the money into his own hands, so he was determined not to let him touch the money in the project.
But how can such a person not make money? Anyone who believes this is naive.
Yuwenxu tugged at Jing Yuanxun and said, "Alright, shut up!"
"Why are you saying this? With Brother He's ability, there is no place where he can't make money?" Zhang Shan raised his glass and toasted He Lingchuan, "In your place, money chases people, not people chase money!"
Even if you chase money with all your might, you may not be able to catch up with it. You have to let the money come to you on its own initiative. That’s what it means to be calm and composed.
Everyone said that Master Zhang was right, and then started talking about the hot spots in the city.
What new events are happening in the Shining Gold Plains, how the Allied Forces and Bisha are fighting to the death, or even what is happening in other parts of Yao Kingdom outside Tianshui City, who cares at all now?
Their minds were all focused on the expansion of Tianshui City.
What happened on the Shining Gold Plain belongs to the Shining Gold Plain. What does it have to do with their Yao Kingdom?
At this time, guard Yang Shan came to find He Lingchuan, and the latter left the box and went outside.
As soon as he left, Yuwenxu lowered his voice and asked mysteriously, "Hey, do you know where the gold-plated stone used to build government offices and royal palaces came from?"
Everyone shook their heads. The expansion project was complicated, so Yuwenxu would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned it. But when he said that, everyone suddenly felt something was amiss. The gold-plated stones used in Tianshui City were all produced in the northern district. In the past two and a half years, the output was extremely small due to untimely provision.
The Tianshui City expansion project was said to have been in preparation for seven or eight years, but in fact it was hastily launched after the construction of Youhu Villa began, so of course there was a shortage of building materials.
Panjin Stone is a high-end niche stone material. Even high-ranking officials cannot use it casually. The annual output is so small. The expansion of the capital created a huge demand, which it could not meet at all.
However, the Yaowang Palace in Youhu and the major government offices in Mangxi were indeed built in full swing.
Where did the stone come from?
Yuwen Xu asked directly, "Second Master Zhang?"
Zhang Shan shook his head. How could he care about such a small matter?
Gu Xuan also said: "The royal palace is just opposite the villa. The last time I went there, I did see Pan Jinshi entering. But if Brother Yuwen hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have thought of it."
"Just then, a batch of Panjin stones were newly discovered in the north. The Imperial Household Department immediately paid for it and used it to build the palace in Youhu. However, the temple was unhappy and said that the stones should be used to build the temple of the goddess. The temple was under construction for more than two years and the progress was seriously delayed."
Everyone hissed loudly. Gu Xuan touched his nose and asked, "Whose order is this batch of Panjin Stone?"
"Not the temple. The temple won't pay for orders out of their own pocket."
The scene was quiet for a while.
Finally, Gu Xuan broke the silence: "Since it is not the Panjin Stone ordered by the temple, there is nothing wrong with buying it for use in the palace, right? After all, the renovation of the palace is a benchmark and has important significance for the expansion of the capital. The king should hope that good steel will be used on the blade."
Ever since the pre-order mode was started for the construction of the new city, the national treasury has been receiving money continuously. Now, they no longer complain about being short of money and just pay the money for the Panjinshi.
What is in short supply right now are materials such as Panjin Stone, and even the imperial palace is in need of them.
