The entire Wuchang Prefecture is actually divided into two parts, one is the prefectural city, and the other is the new city where the imperial government offices are located.
It is worth mentioning that due to his foresight, all the wasteland near the new city was purchased by Yuzhu himself, taking advantage of the extremely low price.
In other words, the wilderness and lakes within a radius of thirty miles near the new city are the emperor's personal property.
This also means that no matter who it is, it is impossible to use the privileges in their hands to annex or appropriate the land around the new city.
If you want to buy land to build a house, you can’t go to anyone but the emperor.
Yuzhu knows better than anyone that the land near Nandu will only become more and more valuable, and it is a non-renewable and scarce resource.
In addition to having to buy land from the emperor, building a house in the new city must be more than two stories high.
In other words, the original courtyard house must be built with more than two floors no matter how many times you enter the courtyard.
Why do you do this?
Because most of the courtyard houses in old Beijing are one-story courtyards, which is a waste of land resources and is not conducive to the intensive development of the city.
The urban development of the Celestial Dynasty had a distinctive feature, that is, the capital and provincial capitals had the power advantage to absorb resources from other cities.
For example, during the pre-Ming Dynasty, when Governor Zhending was stationed in Zhending, Zhending Mansion was much more prosperous than Hejian Mansion.
After entering the new society, Zhengzhou, which was originally far inferior to Kaifeng, has turned Kaifeng into a tourist city after decades of development due to the magnetic effect of power.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as Quanzhou and Shenzhen.
In order to solve the pain point of future traffic congestion in advance, Yuzhu planned the roads of the new city in advance.
The overall road layout of the new city is in a dense well-shaped shape.
In layman's terms, apart from the ten vertical and ten horizontal main roads, any street in the city is a living alley extending in all directions, which can perfectly serve as capillaries to clear the city's traffic.
Everyone wants to buy land and build a house, and Ma Qi is no exception.
"Your Majesty, I want to buy more land so that all the big families in Beijing can be settled here." After Ma Qi reported the official business, he took the initiative to ask Yuzhu to purchase the land.
There are a lot of open spaces around the new capital. Except for the palace, which cannot be sold, other places can be sold.
Yuzhu didn't say anything, and took out the land purchase regulations prepared in advance from the document basket, and gently pushed it in front of Ma Qi's eyes.
Ma Qi held up the charter with both hands, read it carefully, and asked Yuzhu in surprise: "Your Majesty, what is real estate tax?"
Yuzhu pursed his lips and smiled and said: "For example, if you need to purchase one hundred acres of land, then in addition to the money for purchasing the land, you also need to pay a tax on one mu of land every year. This tax is called real estate tax.
”
Seeing that Ma Qi was confused, Yuzhu explained in detail: "For example, the land you buy now will belong to your Fucha family forever as long as you pay the real estate tax on time. However, if your grandson loses
If you want to sell your house, you will have to pay a large sum of value-added tax and deed tax according to the current market price of the land."
Ma Qi understood. If you want to buy land and build a house in the new capital, there is no problem for the first generation to live by themselves. If you want to profit from the huge price difference, then I'm sorry, the emperor and his descendants will follow.
Get huge benefits from it.
"Competing with the people for profit is afraid of damaging the emperor's sanctity!" Ma Qi deliberately advised Yuzhu to change his ways quickly and not go astray.
Yuzhu smiled and said: "If you want to buy my land, you must follow my requirements. It's not a forced sale, so you don't have to buy it at all."
If he didn't buy a large piece of land while it was cheap, Ma Qi would be really out of his mind.
The former Qing Dynasty died less than eighty years after entering the customs, but the land price in Beijing has increased more than twenty times?
Every fool knows that the closer the land is to the highest power, the more valuable it is. This is true at all times and in all countries.
Most people know that apartments in Manhattan Island, New York, are very valuable.
However, many people don’t know that apartments in Washington, DC, near Capitol Hill are ridiculously expensive.
Think about it, how many congressmen want to live close by? The professional brokers surrounding the congressmen also want to live close.
Only by shortening the physical distance can lobbying be facilitated anytime and anywhere.
Practice has proved that the business monopolized by the emperor is a super money printing machine.
The Fucha family in Ma Qi was very rich and did not care about such a small expense. Therefore, he spent a huge sum of two hundred taels of silver per acre and bought ten acres of land.
After Ma Qi left, Tong Xuanyu, the eldest son of the emperor, was ordered to come in.
Yuzhu led Tong Xuanyu, who was already twenty years old, into a small office next door.
"From now on, you will work here. You must carefully read the memorials from all counties across the country and attach your own opinions on the folder." Yuzhu pointed to the desk of the smaller one with a smile.
Tong Xuanyu’s instructions.
If the Tong family's legacy is to be passed down smoothly, Yuzhu's descendants must not only know the sufferings of the lower ranks in the military, but also be proficient in local politics.
There were nine emperors in the former Ming Dynasty, starting from Xianzong to Sizong.
Among these nine emperors, there are only a handful of people who have received a complete monarch education!
The last emperor's Sizong did not receive any systematic royal education at all, so he did the stupid thing of cutting off his own wings, allowing the civil servant group to continue to grow in power.
Without the effective restraint of imperial power, the civil servant group was seeking death unscrupulously in politics, economy and military. The final result was that most of the ministers surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, but the emperor was hanged in Meishan.
Yuzhu has profoundly learned the lessons of the Ming Dynasty. As long as he is his son, no matter who he is, he is qualified to learn government and military affairs.
Reappearance of Kowloon seizing the heir?
Haha, it doesn’t exist!
When the princes become familiar with the entire government and military affairs process, they will be sent to the colonies to serve as governors or commanders of the garrison.
In the future, after Yuzhu establishes the crown prince, the remaining sons will be sent to the colonies to become princes of the surrounding small countries.
Anyway, as long as Yuzhu doesn't close his eyes, it is definitely impossible for any of his sons to get involved in the military power.
In the afternoon, when Xiuyun saw that her son was back, she couldn't help but said with joy: "Have a good job as an errand beside the emperor."
Tong Xuanyu understood the hidden meaning of Xiuyun's words, but did not say a word.
According to Tong Xuanyu's understanding of Yuzhu's temper, because he is the eldest, he is the first prince to work with him.
In the future, when the younger brothers gradually grow up, they will have a small office next to Yuzhu's office.
However, no matter what, it is much better to learn to handle official affairs from the emperor's father than to study the so-called sages' books, right?
What Ling Yuzhu didn't expect was that after Little Iron Hammer came to study office work beside him, party struggles would inevitably begin.
