Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 181 Wait and see
Chapter 181 Wait and see
Zhang Yunji couldn't imagine what the new district would be like, could it be better than the existing county?
He was a little disapproving, but he still praised the place and said: "Your Majesty, I'll just wait and see."

As soon as Qin Yang heard it, he knew that the other party didn't believe it.

This is also normal. Who would believe that a new district built by tens of thousands of grassland people in a short period of time can be better than a county town?
He wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't given the construction drawings and had people use cement and new bricks and other good things.

However, facts trump all.

Qin Yang didn't say anything, just smiled.

The carriage continued on.

Go straight along the spacious cement road.

Finally, on both sides of the concrete road, saplings that had just been planted for a few days appeared.

They've all been watered, and they all look short and small, but there are already some green shoots popping out.

Zhang Yunji raised his eyebrows slightly when he opened the curtain of the car and saw it.

"My lord, there are so many trees planted here? Why are they all planted by the roadside?"

At this time, the general tree planting pays attention to a freehand brushwork and artistic conception.

It is really rare to see a row of trees planted on the side of the road like this, with each tree being about the same height and about the same distance apart.

Anyway, Zhang Yunji had never seen him before.

"This is the wild fruit tree... No, it is now called the eucalyptus tree."

"Excellent fruit tree? Excellent fruit?"

Qin Yang smiled and said: "The pronunciation of Youzhou is excellent. After all, this fruit tree grows vigorously regardless of the land and time. It can grow dense fruits, and the fruits are sweet and sour. Isn't it excellent? "

"Extremely extreme, Youguo, Youguo, that's a good name!" Zhang Yunji was almost overwhelmed by the details.

What a wonderful name!
It turns out that the saplings of the excellent fruit tree look like this?
Before that, Zhang Yunji only watched the fruit trees grow into excellent fruit trees, but he really didn't take a closer look at the appearance of the saplings.

Knowing that this row is planted with high-quality fruit trees, he can already imagine the scene where the fruit fragrance will be pervasive in a few months.

"The business district is ahead." Qin Yang suddenly reminded.

Zhang Yunji hurriedly withdrew his gaze from the Youguo tree and looked forward.

I saw that there was an open space on both sides, which was gradually replaced by houses.

Rows of houses with white walls and green tiles are bungalows, neat and tidy.

Rows of trees are similar to the previous small trees.

It looks a bit too rigid, but it also gives people a very strange and comfortable feeling.

In front of these houses, people come and go, but they don't go in, but look inside.

Most of these people are more boldly dressed.

Zhang Yunji could see that these were all prairie people.

Some women and children also looked ruddy, much happier than the prairie people he had seen.

The faces are full of hope.

Zhang Yunji didn't see hostility from them, which made him feel more at ease after accepting that grassland people have become Youzhou people.

It seems that the king's decision is right.

These people are not wild wolves that cannot be tamed.

"The new area is divided into commercial areas, residential areas, and industrial areas. It is temporarily divided into these three areas."

"The commercial area and the residential area occupy the largest area. The residential area has to accommodate more than ten thousand people. The houses that have been built so far are all houses with more than three floors. Tens of thousands of people can probably reach one-third of the occupancy rate. , and the remaining two-thirds will be temporarily vacated, and can be sold slowly later.”

"The business district consists of five blocks in total, and there are about a thousand or more shops. These shops are all owned by me. Part of the rent is included in my private treasury, and part of it is included in Youzhou's tax revenue."

Qin Yang kept introducing Zhang Yunji.

Looking at these shops, Zhang Yunji couldn't help asking: "Are there more than a thousand shops for rent?"

"Yes, it's not for sale, it's all for rent. It can be rented every three months, or every year. The longest period is five years. When renewing the lease, the previous tenants will have priority in renewing the lease."

"At present, [-] shops have been booked, and most of them have been rented for at least one year."

Qin Yang's words shocked Zhang Yunji.

This is a new area that hasn't been fully built yet!

More than 1000 shops have just been built, and [-] shops have already been rented out?

It is conceivable that the remaining shops will not be empty for too long.

The prosperity of the new district is already visible to the naked eye just from the construction.

Especially in this neighborhood, the carriage passed by on the street, Zhang Yunji looked at the houses on the left and right, and couldn't help panting.

"This is really neater than the streets of the county city, and better than the streets of the county city."

Youzhou County City has been established for a long time. Most of the houses on both sides of the street are old. Even if they look good, they are directly compared with the houses in this new area.

How can it not be depressing?

After Zhang Yunji was sour, he discovered another problem.

He couldn't help asking Qin Yang: "Your Majesty, with so many houses, why haven't you heard that the price of stones has increased?"

In the past, to build a house, manpower was one aspect, and a lot of stones were needed, which is also another aspect!

After all, even if most of the house is built with adobe, stones are still used for the foundation and the lower floors!
Qin Yang smiled mysteriously and said, "Well, keep it secret for now."

Because the brick kiln was directly built in the industrial area of ​​Xinyi District, no one outside knew about it.

Even Zhang Yunji, because he has been busy with other things recently, is not clear about this matter.

Anyway, I will take Zhang Yunji to visit the industrial zone in a while, so there is no need to talk about it now.

Seeing the king's attitude, Zhang Yunji knew that he couldn't ask questions for the time being, so he could only keep his doubts in his heart and continue to visit the residential area.

Originally, he thought that the business district was good enough.

As a result, Zhang Yunji's eyes were not enough to see when the carriage drove into the residential area of ​​Xinyi District!
"This, these houses are for those prairie people to live in?"

This, this is too reckless!
The latter sentence was stuck in his throat and he didn't say it, but the expression on Zhang Yunji's face said so.

Qin Yang knew that even if Zhang Yunji agreed to let these [-] prairie people enter Youzhou and become Youzhou people, he still treated them differently in his heart.

This is not unusual.

Qin Yang had no choice but to explain: "Master Zhang, the new district is just the beginning. In the future, the county, no, the whole Youzhou, will live in better houses than here."

"A house like this is good enough."

Zhang Yunji's eyes kept falling on those rows of three-story buildings.

These houses, looking bright from the windows, all have large windows, and the windows are actually glass!
Where is this for ordinary prairie people?

Even those wealthy businessmen would be happy to live there, right?
Is such a house free for prairie people to live in?
Even knowing that these houses were built by the prairie people themselves, Zhang Yunji still felt sore.

"Your Majesty, if other people know that these houses are lived in by grassland people, I'm afraid, I'm afraid they will feel uneasy!"
