Bai Song did not want to dampen the opponent's enthusiasm and did not reveal the biggest problem in the idea.
Growing flowers is good, but the cycle is too long and it will take at least two years to generate benefits.
The problems that banks are facing now cannot be solved in two days.
If banks want to get rid of the problem of capital turnover and fill the financial gap, short-term gains are essential.
However, there is a huge vacancy in the bank, and ordinary short-term income projects cannot plug this hole.
When Bai Song shifted his mind and thought about how to solve the bank's problem, he gradually discovered that the matter was more difficult.
Qing'er was tired and fell asleep sitting on an old recliner.
Bai Songshou thought for a long time, and finally found inspiration from the third thing Qing'er wrote.
Short-term gains can only be achieved by real estate.
Bai Song took a map of Chang'an and circled all the slum areas in the city.
There are fewer slum areas in Chang'an, so drastic renovations like those in Jixian are not realistic. However, if all the land is used to build houses, it will not cost as much as the renovation of Xicheng in Jixian.
On the contrary, the cost may be ten times or even a hundred times that of Jixian.
Speculating on real estate in Chang'an is not a wise choice. All kinds of big shots are watching at the feet of the emperor. It is better to live in some remote places, where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and there is more room for maneuverability.
Bai Song calculated it. If he was ruthless and gambled in Chang'an, the probability of making money was low. At least he wouldn't be able to make money, and he might even lose money.
The bank's hole is imminent, and a solution must be found.
Finally, Bai Song made up his mind.
If you want to sell land and build a house in Chang'an City, you only need to go to the municipal officials of each district, and the officials will report it to the Sifang Yamen for signature.
But what Bai Song wanted to buy was not just a piece of land, he needed a lot.
A similar situation has not occurred before, but according to the division of responsibilities among the six ministries, this matter should be related to the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works.
This will be a big move. If you say it rashly, you will definitely be rejected.
Some relationship management is indispensable, but Bai Song has no idea which path to take.
So Bai Song arrived at Yu Mansion.
In the relationship network in the capital, Bai Song trusted Yu Shinan even more.
Although Yu Shinan is no longer in the capital, Yu Ji and Yu Qingqing still remain in the city.
Yu Ji was a little surprised to see Bai Song visiting.
After hearing Bai Song's request, Yu Ji introduced Bai Song to Jiang Zheng, the minister of the Ministry of Industry.
This person is a disciple of Yu Shinan and a staunch supporter of the Yu Shinan Group. It is absolutely right for Bai Song to go to him for discussion.
Upon arriving at the Ministry of Works, Jiang Zheng personally received Bai Song.
This is an old official who is over fifty years old. He has a good position but no reputation. He also knows that his official career has come to an end, so he has no desires and requirements and rarely even comes to work at the Ministry of Industry.
Seeing Bai Song, Jiang Zheng was very enthusiastic and polite.
Obviously, as the core of Jianghuai Group, Bai Song's name has long been heard.
This is Yu Shinan's closed disciple.
Recently there has been news circulating in Chang'an that this boy who will never serve as an official will be appointed as the Prince's Young Master.
Now all the officials in Chang'an understand that the stage for the boy named Bai Song is not now, but in the future.
Therefore, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this boy's future is limitless.
Jiang Zheng and Bai Song met very secretly. Bai Song felt that it was a bit of a fuss, but Jiang Zheng had his own considerations.
Nowadays, many people in the capital only hear Bai Song's name, but don't see Bai Song in person. He doesn't want Bai Song's identity to be exposed, so he avoids more people coming to show their courtesy and weakens his sense of existence.
In a separate room in the Ministry of Industry, Bai Song expressed his thoughts.
Jiang Zheng frowned when he heard that Bai Song was going to hoard land in Chang'an.
Let’s not talk about how much money it costs to hoard land. What are the thoughts of the people above?
It is very problematic just for the Bai Song Dynasty to have such a problem.
Bai Song was a young master and would serve as a high official in the imperial court in the future.
Everyone who is an official knows that they should stay away from businessmen to avoid being talked about, and to avoid falling into the trap of others.
But now Bai Song is still a commoner, just a scholar, and now it is his right to hoard land.
Jiang Zheng thought for a long time and asked: "Have you really thought about it?"
"I've thought about it."
"Show me which land you want to buy."
Bai Song took out the map. When the other party saw the circles on the map, his eyes widened.
"so much?!"
Jiang Zheng thought Bai Song would buy a lot, but he never thought he would buy so much.
My heart tells me that I am a good boy and you are teasing me!
With so much land, even the imperial court couldn't afford so much money to squander it.
"That's all."
Jiang Zheng's back was sweating, and he was a little embarrassed: "This... involves too many things. Even I don't dare to make a decision on you. If you really want to buy it, you need to ask the Minister for permission."
Bai Song had thought about this a long time ago and nodded calmly: "Please also ask Mr. Jiang to lead the way for the common people."
After saying that, Bai Song took out a banknote and handed it to Jiang Zheng.
Jiang Zheng did not answer: "Bai Song, what do you think this is? We are all disciples of Mr. Yu, and you are my junior brother. Do you still talk about this in your own family?"
"Because we are from the same sect, I have to be more careful. If I don't give it to my senior brother, why should I give it to outsiders? My lord, just take it. This is just for this time. If you bother me in the future, I won't give it to you if you want."
It was the first time that Jiang Zheng saw someone talking about bribery so easily. Jiang Zheng was also happy. He no longer felt guilty and stuffed the banknote into his pocket.
"No wonder Mr. Yu attaches great importance to you. It's different when I see you today. However, I can pass on the message, but in front of Lord Shangshu, please don't use this kind of cleverness. Lord Shangshu doesn't like it."
"clear."
Zhang Liang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, will also be one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the future. Compared with Li Jingcheng and Yao Jin, his presence in history books is lower. In the memory of the Bai Song Dynasty, it was this person who exposed Hou Junji.
Conspiracy, but this is all in the future.
For Bai Song, this was Bole whom he had never met before.
Because of Zhang Liang's letter, Bai Song was designated as a scholar, so he had a trip to the capital, and everything that Bai Song had encountered before happened.
In the sixth year of Zhenguan, Zhang Liang was much younger than Bai Song imagined.
Bai Song thought he was an old man like Li Jing, but in fact he was a middle-aged man under fifty, and looked more like he was in his early forties.
Zhang Liang still vividly remembers this young man who wrote the chapter on flood control.
When he heard Bai Song's name, the first thing that came to his mind was not the Prince's Young Master or Never to Be an Official, but the paper from the provincial examination.
Bai Song arrived in front of Zhang Liang and found what the other person was looking at.
It was only later that I found out that Mr. Zhang was reading the chapter on flood control written by Bai Song again.
Most of Bai Song's test papers are a combination of pictures and texts, and the words and sentences are all in vernacular. This makes some senior officials who are accustomed to ancient prose uncomfortable. There are many things they don't understand. Mr. Zhang has long wanted to ask Bai Song.
, I just never had time.
When Mr. Zhang saw Bai Song visiting, the first thing he did was to ask Bai Song for help with some diagrams and some strange words that he couldn't understand.
