In short, Severus has been quite lazy lately and probably doesn't pay much attention to Eastern Europe. By the way, Chen Xi actually doesn't know much about the cost of the Arc de Triomphe. Otherwise, he would be laughing and banging the table now.
Compared with the triumphal arches of other giants that disappeared amid wars and the Mediterranean climate, Severus's triumphal arch has actually been standing there for more than 1,800 years. It is a true thousand-year-old building, 23 meters tall.
High, twenty-five meters wide, made of pure marble...
Eighteen hundred years have passed, and in the Mediterranean climate, even the reliefs of the Arch of Severus are clearly visible.
Chen Xi has no idea how high this cost is until now. You must know that marble is not produced in Rome. It costs money to transport it from other places and find stones with suitable patterns.
This thing will be regarded as a civilized spectacle in future generations. Generally speaking, there is no problem with spectacles harming the country. Pompianus has gone further and further on the road to sudden death. The Arc de Triomphe is not good.
It is even more difficult to build a triumphal arch that has endured thousands of years of wind and rain. Regarding treasury expenditures, if there is no deficit, Severus will not create a deficit!
Of course, the Han Dynasty was also engaged in such things as wonders detracting from the country. Compared with the relative restraint of Rome, the Han Dynasty had at least two wonders, one was the Yellow River Bridge and the other was Chang'an City. Although Chang'an City was still
It is still in the middle of construction, but it is indeed already a wonder.
"Severus should be building the Arc de Triomphe, which also comes with a large rooftop. I guess he doesn't have time in the past two years. I've also saved up to build Chang'an City." Chen Xi flipped through the official documents and felt relieved.
, to Chen Xi, Chang'an City is not a wonder, it is not a majestic sight!
"Severus repairs the Arc de Triomphe?" Jia Xu thought for a while, and it seemed that such a thing really happened, but he didn't think the Arc de Triomphe was that difficult. Isn't it just a stone gate more than 20 meters high? I guess if Jia Xu understood the Arc de Triomphe,
If the stone was equivalent to the stone mines transported from Sichuan and Sichuan during the Han Dynasty, he would understand how deadly this thing is.
"Ignore that guy, has there been any special progress in Chang'an City recently?" Chen Xi knocked on the table, "I won't deal with anything else today. Let's take a look at the progress of the new Chang'an City."
"As soon as I mentioned this, a report came over." Pang Tong flipped through his official documents. He had seen an official document before, but he suppressed it and did not give it to Chen Xi. But now that he mentioned it, he could give it to Chen Xi.
Let Chen Xi take the pulse.
"What report?" Chen Xi curiously reached out and took it, and then browsed it briefly. The Hedong Wei family's proposal was full of humility and sincerity.
After reading it, Chen Xi sighed softly, "As expected of the Hedong Wei family, the five wealthy businessmen are indeed not easy to deal with, but they are also powerful."
Pang Tong didn't understand what he meant. In his opinion, this thing was simply money paid out by the Hedong Wei family. Although he was a little surprised that the Hedong Wei family had spent so much money, considering the extent of the Hedong Wei family's misfortune and the current overall situation
Given the situation, it is understandable that the Hedong Wei family spent so much money on this matter to buy themselves a way out.
Although it was a bit strange during Pang Tong's period, after all, Chen Xi was not the one who cared about these things, and Cai Yan had no intention of pursuing them. Although it was possible, it would not make the Hedong Wei family so afraid. The only Cao Mengde has now gone abroad.
, even if we want to clean up the Hedong Wei family, it is not now, not to mention, the foundation of the Hedong Wei family is not weak.
"Let me take a look." Jia Xu took the thing from Chen Xi's hand. After looking at it, he understood the core after a moment of thinking. After all, he and Chen Xi have worked together for so many years, so this method is still clear to him.
Weijia plans to make standards and brands.
Speaking of it, the Wei family in Hedong is also miserable, even worse than the Yang family in Hongnong. The first thing is Cai Yan. This was originally a small matter, but it turned out that Cai Yan became stronger and stronger. Now the Wei family really has to worry about Cai Yan.
Even though Cai Yan didn't even mention the Wei family, it was still a hidden danger.
If you say this, it's okay. After all, Chen Xi and Cai Yan are still very reliable people. The Wei family can only worry about the world for a while, but there is still a big problem.
When Liu Bei showed his strength during the military parade, all the aristocratic families in the world understood that Liu Xuande was going to overwhelm the Central Plains and had no rivals. Many aristocratic families who had originally supported Cao Cao and Sun Ce swayed, and even Chen Qun and Xun Yu said it,
After all, the family is the family, and you are yourself after all. It can be said that the situation became clear at that time.
The situation at that time was very bad. The Hedong Wei family and the Chenliuwei family who invested in Cao Cao were both discouraged. However, the head of the Chenliuwei family, Wei Zi, was a die-hard Cao Cao in the true sense. Even after seeing Liu Bei's situation,
I don’t mean to be cowardly at all!
Later, Wei Zi persuaded everyone in Chen Liuwei's family to donate all their property to Cao Cao to buy iron and steel for armor. He even told Cao Cao to get rid of it, sell it to other businessmen, and stop doing this in the future.
The Wei family in Hedong was cowarded and had no choice. The reason why Hedong followed Cao Cao back then was because Cao Cao's situation was not bad and he had people from his own family, so he followed him. But now the overall situation is clear, the Wei family in Hedong sighed softly and did twenty-five
Tsai, voted for Liu Bei.
If you really want to say it, this approach is right, but what is wrong is that not even a year has passed, the Central Plains has ended in peace, and it has truly ended in peace. The Hedong Wei family was instantly in trouble, and now there are four other wealthy businessmen, not to mention the Chen Liuwei family.
Although Cao Cao was a bit suspicious, he was really loyal, especially to his comrades who shared weal and woe. Naturally, Chen Liuwei's family had a lot to eat.
The previous channels for spreading rumors had to be sold off, and the chamber of commerce policy meetings were also withdrawn. Chen Liuwei, who would not be a businessman in the future, appeared with a bang, and then swallowed up all the words he had spouted before, and continued to work as a wealthy businessman of his own, and compared with them before
You will feel more confident when wrestling.
As for the Mi family and the Zhen family, the former has good vision and the latter is well-born and watched the whole process. The Wu family has not been involved in the situation from the beginning and is now on Liu Bei's boat. Only the Wei family in Hedong is considered a loser.
Big mold.
Even though neither Liu Bei nor Cao Cao said anything after that, the business of the Hedong Wei family naturally began to decline. A few years ago, it had already fallen slightly out of the top five wealthy businessmen, and the newly promoted juniors at that time were very powerful.
Maybe Sun Min.
There is no way anyone can let her father build roads and bridges. He got the road construction drawings in advance. The collusion between government and business is not such an exaggeration. However, during the Chinese New Year this year, the huge investment was exposed, and he was caught by Sun Qian, and then investigated
After a while, she became furious. Now she has been banned, her property has been sold off by her father, and she heard that people are being sold off.
In short, it's not a bad word, but even Chen Xi has to admire this kid's vision. Before other businessmen have changed their thinking, this guy can follow the paving of the road to advance his own industry, which is also very capable.
But now there is nothing left. It seems that people are about to be married off by the impatient Sun Qian. Tsk, tsk, tsk, so now the five wealthy merchants are still the five wealthy merchants. The even worse Hedong Wei family cannot be easily surpassed by other merchants.
Sun Min was completely cheating, and no one else wanted to offend Sun Qian. After all, the profits brought by passing through a road were not even a small amount, and there was nothing to say about his daughter sharing the profits.
After all, from the county level, everyone's business is business, and their states and counties will not suffer any losses, so they will give it to them. After all, road construction in this country also requires queues, and various places are eager for Sun Min to come and open a store. She He came here to open a shop, and it won’t be long before his father comes...
Needless to say, the result is that for relatively remote counties, Sun Min is more popular than the five wealthy businessmen. After all, if the former comes, he will be given a way. How can he not be respected by his aunt?
The vast majority of local governments really do not have no mines, no resources, and no output, but they do not have the first money to send these things out. If they cannot send these things out, they will lose their hands, and they will directly enter an endless cycle. But Sun Minneng looked at the map If you know where to cultivate, others don't know, so how can you be disrespectful?
However, after being discovered by Sun Qian, one of the five wealthy businessmen in the future fell down like this. Even he himself was dealt with, not just one of them was miserable.
The Wei family in Hedong can also take a breather, but being kicked out of the top five is just around the corner. After all, there are many aristocratic families watching the excitement, and there will never be a shortage of people who make trouble with red-topped whites, so that the crisis of the Wei family is already in front of them, even if it is Without this huge business network, the Wei family is still the Wei family, but sometimes, when they lose, their anger dissipates.
After all, the Wei family's previous betrayal had already offended Cao Cao. Even the Chenliu Wei family would at best help the Hedong Wei family when the time comes. They would not use their family reputation to help the Hedong Wei family when Cao Cao really liquidates it one day. Give it a try, after all, when the two parties parted ways, it was impossible for the two guards who were so close to each other to return to the past.
"The Wei family is okay." Chen Xi knocked on the table. He didn't notice these details before, but the Wei family noticed it and found an opportunity. There was no need for him to hold it back. "I agreed to them renovating Weiyang Palace and will Weiyang Palace is heightened."
"How high should it be increased?" Jia Xu raised an eyebrow and looked at Chen Xi and asked.
"Ask the eldest princess, let's see if it's ninety-five or ninety-nine." Chen Xi replied with a smile. The current Weiyang Palace is only fifty meters. It is indeed very high, but this height has already been constrained. The height of other buildings in Chang'an City is where the etiquette is after all.
"It's a bit too high!" Jia Xu looked at Chen Xi blankly and said. He estimated that the height could be increased by more than ten meters, but Chen Xi raised it to ninety-five or ninety-nine, which was a bit embarrassing.
