Chapter 2631: Money moves people’s hearts

[Chen Zichuan, it is Chen Zichuan after all. Even if he does not use conspiracy and trickery, his ability to take one step and count ten steps is really amazing. And this kind of meticulous thinking, even if he knows it, there is no way to solve it. With upright means, he can win.

If he wins, he wins, so no wonder everyone is willing to believe in his morality.] Liu Ba looked at Chen Xi who was swaying diagonally in front of him and was filled with admiration.

"It's just that we can't complete the construction of such a specification." Zhou Yu said with a smile, "If we really want to build it to the towns, I'm afraid it will have to exceed a million kilometers."

"So I plan to open up the cement lime burning technology to the governors of each county in the future." Chen Xi smiled and said, "Only in this way can roads be built in each village. By the way, I plan to go back and try to report to the eldest princess to build the roads.

Construction is included in the assessment of local officials.”

"In this case, you can give it a try." Zhou Yu nodded, "But in this case, what should we do for civilian use? How to calculate the price? Do we price it internally, and subsidize the internal price at a high price externally?"

"We are going to open it up for civilian use. As for price, it can be brought under control like other things. Now, many things no longer need to be controlled. After all, after unification, there will be no prohibition." Chen Xi also said in this regard.

He has considered that he will gradually liberalize the purchase of kitchen utensils and farm tools, and will no longer impose quantitative controls on these as before.

"If that's the case, then there's no problem. It's just that I think it will take twenty or thirty years to achieve what you drew on the map." Zhou Yu shook his head and said.

"Whatever, I'm doing it slowly according to a century-old plan. Maybe I'll be lucky to be able to complete it in twenty or thirty years." Chen Xi said nonchalantly. He really wasn't joking about this, and the road is not that easy to repair.

of.

As the area under control became larger and larger, Chen Xi's lime factory was also built more and more, but even now it is barely enough to supply the area under control. Otherwise, after the Northern Xinjiang, Chen Xi would not directly burn the lime.

The recipe was given to Cao Cao, who built a factory in Yongliang.

After all, the production capacity is not enough. Things like large-scale lime plants also need to burn money. Moreover, it is quite difficult to recover the cost of social infrastructure such as roads without collecting tolls. That is to say, Chen Xi can barely do it.

We rely on the official high price to buy and sell lime cement and subsidize part of it. After all, we are doing an exclusive business and we can still cover it.

In Chen Xi's opinion, the return on investment of this thing is a bit slow, but this thing is a basic building material. If he does not want to return to the previous civil structure, then even Chen Xi has to build it. Besides, infrastructure construction stimulates domestic demand.

It is better to give the people work under the rule than to let them be idle. As the saying goes, people in idleness lead to right and wrong.

Chen Xi also didn't want to think that he had finally managed to feed and clothe the people under his rule. As a result, these people had nothing to do in the off-farm period and had all kinds of troubles. So they came to move bricks during the off-farm period. The bricks were responsible for the food. The official food was good and the oil was

If the salt is in place, you will still be satisfied.

So every year during the busy farming season, Chen Xi would send people to investigate those simple, crude, mindless jobs that only require a lot of effort. Then when the time comes, he would have his subordinates start informing the people that the government would build roads, dams, bridges, and reconstruction projects.

Dangerous houses, etc.

However, even if it is the most important type of work, it cannot support the huge scale. Chen Xi's site can barely cover the amount of concrete consumed every year, just like what is said in later generations, the price increases for whatever the Chinese eat.

If anything multiplied by 1.3 billion, it would be a crushing scale. Although it is not as exaggerated as that of later generations, the output is far from comparable to that of later generations.

If it weren't for setting up road cards and collecting tolls, it would be too much. Chen Xi could barely cover it with other financial subsidies. Maybe road cards, a toll method unique to the feudal dynasty, would appear on the roads now.

Fortunately, Chen Xi is also a good money manager at present. He keeps the ratio between the commercial and official aspects and does not repair too much. Let the output exceed the input. Even if it is slower, at least he has stumbled along the way and the road has been repaired.

What should be built has been built, and the revenue and expenditure are considered balanced.

But we can’t do this anymore. The country has been unified. In many places, let alone county roads, national roads have not been built. If we continue to advance in the same way as before, it will be too slow, and a country cannot even build roads.

, then many aspects will be restricted.

It is precisely based on this that Chen Xi gritted his teeth and distributed technology to each state, and then invested part of the money at the national level, and the local government invested part of the money, and then the local government raised a part of the money together to build the common materials needed for this kind of infrastructure.

field.

If this thing really has to be sold at Chen Xi's price, the speed of repayment is really disappointing. I hope all the states can be kind and help take over the deal...

However, factories at the county level do not need to invest too much at one time. As for the support of benevolent merchants, the current environment of the Han Dynasty is very good, and there are still relatively many benevolent merchants.

Well, it’s not a question of benevolence or not. The main thing is that in this era, businessmen are allowed to participate in public welfare undertakings. To be honest, the real intention is not to exploit businessmen, but to give businessmen face.

The old Chen family's dirty information and Lu Buwei's dark stuff have made the status of businessmen and the difficulty of their business ethics skyrocketing. If the country is willing to let go in this regard, there will be many wealthy businessmen who are willing to cut their heads.

Mixing inside.

After all, the vast majority of businessmen cannot be wealthy families like the Zhen family with hereditary titles and official positions, nor can they be as lucky as the Mi family and have the opportunity to turn their fortunes around.

Most businessmen are more dependent on certain branches of aristocratic families. Just like Chen Xi's father helped the Chen family handle business. At this time, they are ashamed to associate with businessmen. Most of the Central Plains aristocratic families have branches to remotely rely on themselves.

Very few businessmen step down personally.

Even though Chen Xi is constantly adjusting various rules and regulations, the status of merchants is still not high. Most of the top three hundred merchants in the Central Plains rely on aristocratic families to survive. As for Chen Xi personally standing up for merchants, doing so

Less than.

Therefore, although Chen Xi said that he hoped that some benevolent businessmen would lend a hand, in fact, if there was such an opportunity, many businessmen would be willing to participate, even if it is very likely to turn a large amount of money into a long-term investment.

There is so much dead money that one is willing to jump into the pit.

After all, participating in this matter is equivalent to the official opening of a talisman, and it can be regarded as a clear connection with the official. As long as you don't seek death in the future, life will be much easier than before. The big businessmen of this era and the businessmen of later generations

There is probably no difference mentally.

After all, no one wants their hard-earned money to be unreasonably handed over to others to provide so-called protection. If possible, everyone actually hopes that they can protect themselves.

"It's just that the first investment is a bit taxing." Liu Ba frowned and said, paving the way for Chen Xi.

"Well, so the plan is to use technology and money to allocate it, and then the local government will raise part of it on its own." Chen Xi didn't explain it very thoroughly, but except for Sun Ce, there was probably no one with really low intelligence in the room. Everyone understood it in an instant.

.

When Chen Xi spoke, all the civil servants who heard this frowned. Some wanted to ask, but in the end they did not ask. And in this kind of thing, not speaking means acquiescence.

"Okay, there seems to be no problem with this, let's pass." Chen Xi smiled and said, it's best if no one talks, so passing it like this can be regarded as a talisman for those businessmen who abide by the rules.

"These roads connect all major states and counties in the country, and the next thing involved are distribution points and trading centers." Chen Xi nodded to Lu Su, who nodded and continued.

As soon as these words came out, both Cao Cao and Sun Ce became interested. They had always wanted to do this thing. After all, the tax revenue of one county in Taishan directly overwhelmed the tax revenue of their entire state. This was such a devastating thing.

However, after understanding the situation, they all stopped their actions. After all, whether it was rules, control methods, or management models, Chen Xi had grasped them. Some things were simply not something that both Cao and Sun could do if they wanted to. Even if it was

Imitation also requires a minimum capital.

And now Chen Xi is thinking about it again. Even if they are destined to leave the Central Plains, the traces of their influence circle are very obvious. Even if they leave the Central Plains, the influence circle will not collapse immediately.

After all, they are not dead yet, and as long as they are not dead, their faction and their political power will not be finished.

As for saying there are no parties or factions, wake up, Liu Bei has them all, it’s just that someone can suppress them and prevent them from turning into vicious competition. Naturally, they have a profit-seeking mentality. Cao Cao and Sun Ce are interested in this.

The items are all of great interest.

Even if the world is unified, people like them can block guns for each other on the battlefield and fight for this country, but they have to fight for everything that should be fought. Even if the final trading point must be owned by the country, this thing can be rooted in their own past.

The circle of influence is also easy to take advantage of.

"Seeing how bright your eyes are, I know you are very interested in this." Chen Xi scanned it and found that even a gentleman like Xun Yu has very bright eyes. This is a real big fortune, very big.

That kind of.

"This kind of thing has a profound impact on us, so we naturally need to be cautious." Xun Yu didn't mean to hide it, and said with a gentle smile.

"Okay, this makes sense. I haven't thought about the location yet. I plan to build three locations. Where do you think they should be built?" Chen Xi raised an eyebrow and said with a smile that was unclear whether it was malicious or kind.

.

"Three places?" Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows. This was news, but Chen Xi said that he hadn't thought about it yet. He didn't believe it, but it didn't matter whether he believed it or not. This kind of thing related to great interests might be involved, so Zhou Yu said

Willing to try.
