Chapter 287 The Magnificence of Luoyang

Chapter 288 The Magnificence of Luoyang

Cao Chong finished arranging the activities of the school affairs office in Jiangdong, and started busy with Luoyang.

Rebuilding Luoyang is his most important job at this stage, but fortunately, it is progressing well.

Although everyone in Luoyang was very displeased with Cao Chong's insistence on appointing women as officials and forcefully implementing the New Deal.

But Nianzai Cao Chong was not bad to them in normal times, and Luoyang had achieved good results in the past year, so he held his nose and endured it.

But Cao Chong understands very well that it will be very troublesome if the results cannot be seen quickly, just like Wen Jiao said: "It's hard to gather some people's hearts, and it's about to disperse!"

Thinking of Wenjiao, Cao Chong showed a wretched smile: Master's persistence has paid off!

Last time Wen Jiao had revealed a little bit of her thoughts, although she was misunderstood by her own slow reaction.

However, it didn't affect Wen Jiao's affection for her. After Wen Jiao lost her temper that day, she returned to normal the next day.

And recently, Wen Jiao seems to have slowly accepted her stalking of the young master.

Instead of deliberately avoiding the young master like last year, when encountering the young master's excessive behavior, he blushed and ran away.

This made Cao Chong even more itchy!

"Oh, it's a pity that I have to go to the construction site tomorrow. This Muxiu is in vain. I try to come back sooner, and I want to strengthen my relationship with Wenjiao!" Cao Chong thought to himself.

The first piece of construction in Luoyang New Town is finally completed, and Cao Chong will take the main personnel of the Luoyang County Government to inspect and accept it tomorrow.

According to Cao Chong's design, the entire New Luoyang City has three pairs of gates from east to west, among which the two ends of Xingluo Avenue are the main gates.

Luoyang City is also divided into north and south by Xingluo Avenue, and then the north and south districts are further divided into two parts by two east-west avenues.

These two avenues have not yet been named, and they are temporarily called the South and North avenues, so there are three main east-west avenues in New Luoyang City.

Similarly, there are three north-south main roads in New Luoyang City, which are Zhuque Street on the central axis, and three streets on both sides that are temporarily called Zuo and You Streets.

Xinluoyang City is divided into 16 yuan by three vertical, three horizontal and six main roads, but because the inner city occupies four blocks in the center of the northern city, there are still 12 yuan left.

Including four blocks on both sides of the inner city in the northern urban area, and eight blocks neatly arranged in the southern urban area.

The four areas on both sides of the inner city of Beicheng District were directly and simply called one, two, three, four by Cao Chong. This time, the Beiyi District in the most northwest corner was completed.

Because this area has the farthest way to transport building materials and is close to the inner city, in order to prevent the inconvenience of transporting building materials in the future, this area was the first to be built.

Cao Chong took the important officials of Luoyang County around the construction site of Luoyang City, and finally came to Beiyi District.

Everyone was amazed by the various new construction tools and construction materials and advanced construction methods along the way!

Then I was shocked by the majestic building in front of me!

"Young master, will all the houses in Luoyang City be like this in the future?" Liu Jing stared straight at the huge building in front of him.

"Northern urban area is about the same. The southern urban area must be denser than here. The northern urban area is mainly where dignitaries and wealthy families live, so the houses are wider and more retro-styled."

"The area of ​​the South District is much larger than that of the North District, and each area has to be planned separately, so the building format and scale will be different, and there will be more people living there than in the North District, and their identities will also be much more complicated. .” Cao Chong explained.

Cao Chong led the crowd around the North [-]st District, and they were fascinated by the various mansions here.

"Actually, the houses in North [-]st and [-]nd districts are only spacious, and they are mainly for those old and stubborn people. The level of refinement is far inferior to those in North [-]rd and [-]th districts."

"Northern Third District will be completed in two months. When the time comes, everyone will go there and have a look. Those are the houses that are called good houses." Cao Chong said triumphantly.

Coming out of the North District [-], several officials from the Six Departments pointed to the large area in the center of Beicheng District and began to inquire.

"Young master, where will the inner city be built in the future?"

"Yes, all kinds of architectural planning and measurement data have been prepared. When the third north district is completed, the construction of the inner city will begin!"

"The area is really not small! Why not build the inner city first?" In ancient times, the inner city was generally built first, and then expanded outside the circle.

"Building the inner city first will affect the transportation of construction materials in the North [-]st District and the North [-]nd District. Most of the construction materials for Luoyang City must be transported from the southwest."

"Now we are constructing the North District [-], and at the same time transport the building materials for the North District [-]. The layout of the North [-] and [-] Districts will be the same. When the North [-] District is completed, the building materials for the North [-] District will also be complete. At that time, we will start to build the inner city." .” Xia Houshang stepped forward and explained.

"The area of ​​the new city is much larger than the old city, right? It felt like it was more than ten miles along the way just now." Liu Ba sighed.

"It is indeed more than ten miles from east to west, and only more than eight miles from north to south, but it is indeed much larger than the old city, even larger than the Chang'an city in the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

This is actually just the central area that Cao Chong originally planned. Cao Chong's first plan was much bigger than this.

Later, I thought it was unnecessary. One was that construction was too difficult, and the other was that there was only such a small population left in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Building a city that was too large was a waste.

Moreover, the terrain of Luolong District is narrow. Cao Chong's original plan was to stick to the river bank, and the whole city was twisted and crooked. After revision, only the middle part was taken, which just fit into a square area.

After hearing this, everyone was startled and exclaimed, what a big city!

"This is already too big. After the inner city is built, the outer Guo should not be too large. Don't compare it with Chang'an. Chang'an has been expanded for more than 100 years to form such a scale. When Gaozu was in power, Chang'an City was only around the Weiyang Palace. The area is not as large as your inner city."

Yi Ji pointed to the direction of the inner city and told Cao Chong that he had wanted to persuade Cao Chong a long time ago.

"That's right! Young master, it's better not to build such a big building all at once!" Everyone echoed.

"Young master, there were more than [-] people in the city of Chang'an back then, but now Luoyang has a large number of refugees migrating here, with a population of more than [-]."

"If you build such a big city, it's still empty. Why don't you build a smaller one first, and it won't be too late to expand after the population is full." Liu Ba also came up to persuade.

Cao Chong stared at everyone, what's wrong?
I brought you here today to open your eyes, why are you all here to persuade me?
Since the young master came to Luoyang, whenever the scale of New Luoyang was mentioned, you all discouraged it collectively!

Do you know how big Luoyang was in my original plan?
Saying it doesn't scare you to death!
What does it mean to be built and empty?

When Luoyang becomes prosperous, you will know how strong the siphon effect of the super city on the population is!
Cao Chong was disdainful in his heart, while coping: "Alright, after the inner city is built, I will adjust the plan."
