Take the mall to Datang

Yuan Shan didn't have time to go back to the old house, but Yan Bei informed the two women of the family the news, so the Yuan family's old house construction plan started, and all the hundreds of craftsmen on the treasure ship had their work done.

The news of the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce was brought back by a businessman who was released from Suzhou. After Yu Gui heard about this, he found a lot of rich Yuezhou merchants the next day. After discussion, they decided to set up a Yuezhou Chamber of Commerce. The attack happened to be a pretext.

Yu Gui and others raised [-] yuan as a loan from the shipwreck merchant. There is no condition for the loan, and only the principal needs to be returned after one year. Because of this matter, the Yuezhou Chamber of Commerce was formally established. The nature is similar to that of Suzhou, but overall it feels a bit similar. business alliance.

According to the actual situation of Yuezhou merchants, there are not many foreign commercial activities, and the business in Yuezhou has not been done. Many merchants are unable to do business outside. Therefore, the purpose of the Yuezhou Chamber of Commerce was to develop the local economy together in the form of an alliance. Coupled with the encouragement of the staff of the Ministry of Economic Development, the people who got together cared about this alliance very much.

What Yuanshan didn't expect was that although the merchants who funded the shipwreck were just a pretext, it also became a good foundation for the development of the Yuezhou Business Alliance because of this small incident.

In three days, all the goods that could be found on the sea were salvaged, and the invisible ones were really lost. The treasure ship also found the location of the sunken ship, but salvage was impossible, so it gave up decisively.

Although the shipwreck is not too deep from the coast, it is unrealistic for people to swim to the bottom of the sea.

It is precisely because of the appearance of treasure ships that many merchants have seen the power of treasure ships with long-distance sailing capabilities. Such ships will be fine even if they encounter strong winds and waves. The businessmen were all moved.

Rich people like Yu Gui have long wanted to use the idea of ​​treasure ships, but after hearing about the ten treasure ships ordered by the imperial court, they knew that it might take three to five years for these merchants to have a chance.

In Dugu Mansion, Yuanshan has nothing to do now. The sinking of the merchant ship is a small episode. After a few days of tossing, Yuanshan still sees hope. I don’t know what happened. Organize together to form a chamber of commerce.

The Yuezhou Chamber of Commerce was established, and he was invited to participate in the witness, eating, drinking and chatting about various things. After all, Yuezhou is his hometown, and the business development naturally has some emphasis on allowing his hometown to develop rapidly.

With the help of Liu Guangyao, the construction of the Ministry of Economic Development in Yuezhou took less time than other prefectures, and there was no need to build a house. Most of the three-entry houses were rented cheaply, and the Ministry of Economic Development soon entered the role. Investigate businesses in Yuezhou.

The craftsmen on the treasure boat also knew that this year would be the New Year in Yuezhou, so according to the Ministry of Economic Development, some of them were repairing the old houses of the Yuan family, and most of them started industrial construction, building brick kilns, cement kilns, and clay kilns.

In the cold weather, digging started. Fortunately, the temperature in Yuezhou was not too cold, and then began to hire a large number of idle farmers at home. They were very active when they heard that there was work and wages.

These industries were built with Yuan Shan's money, and the scale is not too large. He is developing some industries in Yuezhou, and laying some foundations for benefiting Yuezhou. His plan is that these industries will eventually be left to future generations. , although he doesn't have a son and a half now, everything must be planned in advance.

The Yuezhou money bank is also raising funds. It is not a simple matter to start a money bank. It can't be done in a few days. The deployment of talents and the construction of the fresh-keeping warehouse will take time. Besides, a single office building will have to wait for next year. Start construction in spring, otherwise how will the foundation be dug.

"Caiyi, how is the Yuan family's house going?" Yuan Shan asked.

"Master Hou, the outer walls have been renovated, and now the eldest lady and the second lady are supervising the interior decoration, and it is estimated that it will not be completed in more than a month." Caiyi said.

"It's been so long, did the decoration take so long?" Yuan Shan asked curiously.

"Master Hou, don't be in a hurry. The main reason is that the ground needs to be paved with floor tiles. These things need to be supplied by the kiln factory, so there is no rush. The meaning of the lady is to let Lord Hou live in Fudu Gujia with peace of mind." Said Caiyi .

"What Ruolan means." Yuan Shan was thoughtful, but in fact, the Yuan family's house is really nothing compared to Dugu Mansion.

"By the way, what are Lan'er and the others doing these days, why don't they see anyone?" Yuan Shan asked.

"Oh, they are planning for a clothing store." Caiyi said.

"Is it Da Furen's idea to open a shop in Yuezhou for a clothing store?" Yuan Shan asked.

Other than himself, the only person who could command the female secretary was Dugu Ruolan, the eldest lady. He would not guess that Du Qianyu asked them to do it, because it was not logical at all.

"Yes, the eldest lady said that Yuezhou is the hometown of Lord Hou and his wife, and they want to buy some properties. She also said that if Lord Hou returns to his hometown in the future, this will be the foundation of the Yuan family. "Caiyi said.

"It's a good idea to develop Yuezhou as the foundation of the Yuan family, away from Chang'an." Yuan Shan thought carefully.

"En, not bad, the idea is very good." Yuan Shan subconsciously agrees, who wants to be restricted in Chang'an, it is better to live happily in the local state capital, but think about whether it is really easy for His Majesty to release people today.

And the past few years are the key to the changing situation. The Supreme Emperor left, and then the Empress Changsun, and then the Qiangu Empress appeared. Thinking of this Yuan Shan gave me a headache. Compared with Li Shimin, this empress is obviously more difficult to deal with, really. It was the emperor who laid down millions of corpses in a fit of anger.

Chapter 748 Imitation Kiln

"Why think so much, let's take one step at a time." Yuan Shan thought.

But he has already made up his mind that things must not be sloppy. Although he has never really met Wu Meiniang, the evaluation of her and her various actions in history have already shown what kind of person she is.

Don't think that being an emperor is easy, just come to Xuanwumen, think about it, she is a female emperor, and even her own son, husband, etc. will not show mercy, kindness and everything are simply a joke.

Although Yuan Shan didn't want to seek power and profit, the things he did from the beginning were also aimed at targeting the empress. As for Li Shimin, he really didn't care too much. He was more afraid of madmen than ruthless people.

I have been in Yuezhou for a month, and the weather started to get cold. It took a month for the Xiaolong to arrive, because Zhang Liang wanted to use the Xiaolong for short-distance transportation. It is still necessary to ask Li Shimin for the escort of Satisfaction.

After getting the approval, it took a month to rush from Cangzhou to Yuezhou.

Yuan Shan and Zhang Liang have known each other for a long time, but the captain of the Xiaolong is not Zhang Liang himself, and even a prince from another country will not come to help you escort him. It is Zhang Liang's subordinate who thinks that the right-hand man is named Tian Yuan.

Like Zhou Ru, he is better at water warfare, and this Tian Yuan was a shipbuilder before, and he is more familiar with warships. However, what Yuan Shan didn't expect was that Lian Jia and Song Kangde were also on board.

He is not very familiar with Tian Yuan, but Yuan Shan, who will get along with him in the future, also expressed due enthusiasm and affection.

"Yuan Pushe, we are also on the Xiaolong." Lian Jia said.

"What's going on?" Yuan Shan asked.

Tian Yuan's attitude towards the two people who came over was very respectful. From this point, it can be seen that the military supervisor seems to have something to do with Xiaolong, but there is no need to guess that Lian Jiahao and Song Kangde will tell the matter soon. The instrument inspection is very secret, but it is nothing to Yuan Shan.

Lian Jia and Song Kangde didn't hide it and said that the craftsmen of the military supervisor directly modified the hull of the Xiaolong.

"You said that you were working on the Xiaolong, so you have moved the military supervisor to the ship." Yuan Shan said.

"Yes, it is mainly to build and install a new type of artillery for Xiaolong. This is a big project. Afraid of delaying the progress of the renovation, Xin Zhengjian directly put some people from the weapon supervisor on board. Hey, won't there be many treasure ships in the future? This is also done in advance. Get ready." Lian Jia said.

Yuan Shan understood, this is to use the Xiaolong as a mobile weapon supervisor, build as many firearms as possible, and then refit the treasure ship after it enters service.

"It's really talented to put all the military inspectors on board." Yuan Shan gave a thumbs up, he really thought this idea was great.

The two were a little embarrassed. In fact, it was for the sake of confidentiality that the modification on the ship would not attract attention, and the Xiaolong would show its power when it was used.

"Okay, I won't interfere with the affairs of your Xiaolong. It may be the New Year in Yuezhou in winter. Let's celebrate the New Year with the Ministry of Economics and Development." Yuan Shan said.

The few people naturally agreed that all the expenses from the arrival of the Xiaolong at the Yuezhou port were all on Yuan Shan's head, and of course Yuan Shan didn't care about the matter of the military supervision.

So in name Yuan Shan is the employee of Xiaolong, and the crew members naturally have to listen to his arrangements.

"Okay, you're tired too. The inn at the Yuezhou port will be your permanent residence in the future. Let the crew prepare and you can't always live on the ship." Yuan Shan said.

Tian Yuan got Yuan Shan's order and went to arrange it, and Lian Jia and Song Kangde also left. The crew could go down, but the military inspectors were at most active on the shore. They were not allowed to leave the treasure ship too far. Inns are a luxury.

As the two people in charge, they didn't dare to be careless. After all, what the military inspector is doing now is the secret of the secrets, and one mistake will really lose their heads.

In one month, the Yuan family established several businesses in Yuezhou, and opened two ceramic kiln factories. The clay wares they fired were cheap and beautiful. A ceramics factory is dedicated to the production of masonry and rubble. Floor tiles, glazed tiles and other varieties are even more expensive.

In the Yuan family’s house, the ground is now paved with blue bricks in the courtyard, and the floor is paved with ceramic tiles. The current technology of ceramic floor tiles cannot be particularly resistant to pressure, but it doesn’t matter if you step on it and replace it with a new one, anyway. To be rich is to be willful.

In order to reduce the breakage of the floor tiles, the ceramic floor tiles fired are all small pieces, which greatly reduces the breakage. These industries earned [-] guan in a week, which is not counted by the Yuan family.

At the same time, merchants in Yuezhou began to study their kilns, and they were very curious about the new kilns, and the Yuan family did not keep these things secret, so a large number of imitation kilns appeared.

Yuan Shan was very angry when he learned about this, not because his own kiln was prevented, but because he saw a lot of prevention kilns that were unqualified, which would cause excessive waste of materials, especially the waste of wood. In the next few years, Yuezhou will be made into a miasma in decades, which is not what he wants.

The temperature rose a little that day, so Yuan Shan found Yu Gui.
