Take the mall to Datang

"Your Majesty, Yuan Pushe and several Guogongs plan to hold the Lion King Competition. I heard that it is a large-scale entertainment event. It will be performed at the Blue River Village Stadium." Seeing Li Shimin's reaction, Ma He immediately sent the prepared news speak out.

Sure enough, after hearing the new news, Li Shimin's attention was diverted.

"That kid Yuan Shan came up with the entertainment show again, tell me what happened after seeing it." Li Shimin said.

There is nothing curious about an event, but the word "Lion Fighting for Hegemony" sounds very domineering, which is very in line with Li Shimin's taste. This is indeed the case, men have a passionate complex.

Ma He told all the information he had learned, because he was very interested in this matter, so when he said it, he felt a little bit more.

"To make a sensation, the princes of the state are making such a fool of themselves." Li Shimin said lightly.

Ma He was very familiar with Li Shimin's expression. Now that he looked at him, he knew that he was talking ironically. It seemed that His Majesty was very moved. Wouldn't it be a chance to watch it.

Li Shimin doesn't know about Ma He's little thoughts, but this matter is really harmless. He doesn't advocate extravagant life, but in fact, is there any wasteland for not extravagant? To be honest, he is all introverted.

In addition to mass entertainment, it is not expensive to charge tickets, but it can win the fun of the common people.

Li Shimin didn't know the role of entertainment, but he didn't care about such trivial things at all. The princes were just messing around to make a little money. Even if the stadium sold tickets, their income would be at most a hundred dollars.

Wasn’t that the football match between Youwuwei and Youwuhou before? Soon Li Shimin stopped thinking about this issue. He was very busy. The situation in Lanzhou is not optimistic. The soldiers and horses are expected to quickly capture Tubo. Could it be that they don’t have the strength However, the local altitude sickness prevented many soldiers from continuing to fight.

He was trying to figure out a way now, and he didn't have time to take care of too many trivial matters, but he had to deal with the matter of asking for money from the Building Materials Chamber of Commerce to replenish the money he had consumed.

Yuan Shan is very knowledgeable, and the Ministry of Economics and Development is also dealing with the proceeds when he is fooling around with several state princes.

The venues for civil and military assessments are all paid by the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War. The money earned is being distributed reasonably by the Ministry of Economic Development. Bonuses were also given out.

When it comes to His Majesty, there are only a thousand or eight hundred guan left, and the accounts are very clear, and there is no way to take the blame for Li Shimin.

Yuanshan is also under great pressure. The Ministry of Economic Development is not a money-printing machine, and there is no wireless funds to support the operation of Lanzhou. The large investment in the early stage is just a good start to revitalize the project and speed up the project.

In fact, the problems of the Ministry of Economic Development were the same as what Guo Shouyi encountered now. It was impossible to support the operation of a county or a state capital forever on their own, and ultimately they had to rely on themselves.

The labor of the common people, the capital operation of the merchants, etc. will be much easier to connect.

Lantian County is finishing up recently. After completing a part of the project, it will not start a new construction project, but put all this part into the ongoing project, let it speed up the project, and gradually carry out the project finishing work.

Lantian’s real estate household registration system will support until the next tranche of funds from the Ministry of Economic Development arrives, and then continue to improve the construction of public facilities in the county area. The funds are used to solve the problem of starting expenditure in Lantian.

In this way, there will be no verbal disputes in other counties. If you want to support it, you can also raise the tax to the level of Lantian County.

The situation in Lanzhou is not the same as that of Lantian County. After all, it is located in a place where there are few people. Now it is supported by the merchants who were fooled by Yuanshan. It has almost become a complete commercial city, but the benefits are obvious. As the largest The importance of transit points.

Thanks to the efforts of Zhang Wenyi, the governor of Lanzhou, he had close contacts with the Anxi Governor's Mansion, because the Silk Road itself is not easy to do business, and there are many ethnic groups in the area. If someone robs the caravan, it will be a loss. This will affect the Silk Road. Good trade on the road.

Therefore, with the efforts of Lanzhou and Anxi Dufu's protection of trade routes, they have some common interests.

As a result, trade in the outer regions of the Silk Road became more frequent, and more merchants wanted to go to the outer regions to seek gold. As long as they arrived in Lanzhou, it was very convenient to travel between Chang'an and the sales of goods. The profit is higher than before, so many People choose to take risks.

Although there are not too many people in Lanzhou now, they are not inferior to the surrounding state capitals in terms of population. After the assembly of several engineering teams, there are tens of thousands of people.

Moreover, the emperor reclaimed a large amount of land and attracted many people. The Ministry of Economic Development organized the planting of melons, melon seeds, roses, etc. Melons, fruits and flowers are special products here. Don’t underestimate roses. After cultivation and planting, they can be made into Herbal tea leaves are purified and used to make cosmetics, and can also be used as medicine.

Needless to say, no one paid attention to melons and fruits before. After the melons and fruits are produced, they will definitely be able to support the economy of Lanzhou. With the train, fruits such as cantaloupe can be quickly transported to Chang’an for sale. It’s your fault if you don’t make money, plus roses Cosmetics made of flowers, and herbal teas are bound to be very profitable.

The years were quiet and steady, and the Cangzhou sailed twice in one and a half months, each time on the route of Kyushu Island and Silla Golden City, and sold a large amount of cloth and porcelain.

Every time there is a lot of income, but the sales volume does decrease a lot every time. After all, the two places are relatively poor. This is sincere. The noble consumption was very powerful at the beginning, but the stamina was not enough.

However, Fusang already had a plan. The construction of the paper mill started, and the cheap labor and raw materials were all used to make toilet paper. The low-cost transportation to Datang for sale was a huge profit.

The key manufacturing technologies are all under the control of the Tang people. In fact, it doesn't matter if they are leaked out. After all, there will be a day sooner or later. Yuan Shan hopes to keep the secret as much as possible.

Not to mention the production of toilet paper, Yuan Shan is very confident in this.

With the help of Daimyo Taniguchi, ten papermaking workshops were built within a month along the commercial area. The scale is very large. Daimyo Taniguchi accounts for [-]% of the profit of the cost. In fact, the cost price is very low, and it is even lower in terms of cost sharing. Yes, it is completely a free gift, but even so, the income is quite good when calculated from the output of toilet paper, and this part is all paid for by food.

Therefore, the nobles of Kyushu Island are used to eating polished rice every day, and the lives of the samurai have improved later, otherwise they would rarely be able to eat polished rice.

Chapter 725

The commercial and trading companies in Fusang are still developing very fast. The Cangzhou ship has brought many people there twice. The paper mill is polluted, so the place where it was established is much farther away. There is no reason not to use these resources.

It has to be said that the offshore fishing industry in Kyushu Island is very developed, and the fish caught can satisfy part of the food of the Tang people on the island.

Gao Biaoren and Zhou Ru became more and more at ease, because the increase of Tang people made their small group no longer feel "lonely". A village with hundreds of people can be regarded as a relatively large ethnic group in Fusang.

The paper mill increased the income of Taniguchi Daimyo and other nobles. In order to protect this income, Taniguchi Daimyo began to gather strength secretly, not against Tang Ren. Taniguchi would not be stupid enough to ruin this way of making money like this.

All the grain obtained through dividends may be converted into Datang’s goods, and then sent to the metropolis for sale, coupled with the combination of nobles such as Murata Yuren, Sancun and Ma, the speed at which Datang’s goods are popular in Fusang very fast.

Fine china, earthenware, and even a small amount of kitchen iron were popular.

Don't think that iron pots and pans are not sold outside. In fact, every shipment will carry some for export, and the price is quite expensive.

It’s just that most of the uniform rewards are in food. The population of Fusang is said to be small or not, and the rice that can be used every year due to the limitation of mountain forests is all used to supply nobles and officials. A little money, even a little bit of name, will be deducted and delayed.

In short, the systems in each region are different, and the food Taro Taniguchi received in just a few months is enough for him to show off.

Gao Piaoren wanted to know what Taniguchi would do. Through this period of time, he learned more and more about Taniguchi Daimyo's situation.

The power of Taro Taniguchi has always been controlled by his wife, the Yamamoto family. In other words, Taniguchi is somewhat similar to the son-in-law who stepped in the door. If there is no luck, it is impossible to grow from a low-level samurai to a daimyo.

However, there are many things that are restricted everywhere, and there are many things that he can't decide. In Kyushu Island, this place is actually considered a remote place. Don't look at the daimyo who seems to be a lord of one party. In fact, the lord of Kyushu Island is not only him. The Taniguchi family.

Being suppressed for many years, Taniguchi is still young and he doesn't want to be controlled by others everywhere. Although he is doing well with the power of the Yamamoto family backing him, it doesn't feel good. Besides, he is a person with dreams.

Tang Ren was his opportunity. Taro Taniguchi knew very well that he felt that Taniguchi was easy to talk to, and that the countrymen compromised without much knowledge and offered some benefits. In fact, Taniguchi was accumulating strength.

Now a large amount of food can be obtained every month. If it were changed to before, the Yamamoto family would definitely account for the majority, but this time it is not the case.

Because Taniguchi daimyo cleverly let most of the Fusang people in the fief go to work in the area of ​​the Tang people, and the food and taxes are all exempted. His "generosity" made the money collected by the daimyo begin to decrease, so Uemoto Kumi also did the same under Taniguchi's operation. Helpless, although her heart is toward the Yamamoto family, she also lives in Kyushu, and knows that Taniguchi daimyo can't do things without money, so the food paid by the Tangren has become the daimyo's main source of income.

Of course, a large part of it was secretly handled by Daimyo Taniguchi. How could it be possible to lack food if he wanted to feed his subordinates, so most of it became activity funds.

In just a few days, Taniguchi absorbed and recruited a lot more ashigaru and samurai, and won the nobles through the form of interest binding, so that they can get support in the battle for Kyushu Island.

Gao Biaoren didn't know what Daimyo Taniguchi was doing, but Daimyo Taniguchi's ability to suppress labor was still very high in order to benefit Daimyo Taniguchi, so Tangren didn't need to worry about it.

Zhou Ru leads people on patrol in the trading house. This is the daily routine of Coal. Even though they have a lot of people now, there are only a few hundred people who are actually fighting, so we must be cautious every day.

Gao Biaoren counts the situation of materials in the trading company every day.

People from the Akiyama family came over today.

Zhou Ru was the first to see that under the protection of the Tang people's guards, he came to the trading house, and the leader of the group was Akiyama Kota.

"Boss, is the amount of food we negotiated last time enough for our Akita family?" Akiyama Hikari asked with a smile.
