When Li Longji inquired about Daqi Trading Road, Zhou Jun knew everything and spoke in detail. Not only was he able to answer fluently, but he was also able to put forward his own suggestions on the details of future operations and expenses, which made the saint happy.
After answering the questions, Zhou Jun returned to the banquet and saw that Yin Yu was still talking to Du Meiren, so he lowered his head and drank and ate by himself.
After a while, a middle-aged man wearing a purple shirt came to have a drink with Zhou Jun.
Zhou Jun looked at his clothes and guessed which prince he should be, so he stood up and left the table to greet him.
After some conversation, Zhou Jun finally learned the identity of the other party—Prince Li Heng.
Facing Tang Suzong, who would ascend the throne during the Anshi Rebellion in the future, Zhou Jun cheered up and kept company with him carefully.
Perhaps due to his long life in the palace, the high-spirited edges of Li Heng's words and deeds have long been worn away. He speaks slowly and calmly, and his expression has an old-fashioned look that does not suit his age.
The two just chatted for a while, drank a few drinks with each other, and then parted ways.
Zhou Jun looked at Li Heng's back and thought to himself, who would have thought that such a harmless-looking prince would dare to ask for the throne in the future.
After that, Zhou Jun met with some people and had wine; Yin Yu also finished talking to her mother and returned to the banquet.
Li Longji turned sideways and said a few words to Gao Lishi. The latter nodded, left the hall, and went to the first floor.
Not long after, the Yang family went up to the second floor and saluted the saint again.
Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan walked down from the seats and came to the Yang family.
Li Longji turned to Zhou Jun and said, "Tuesu Lang."
Zhou Jun quickly stood up and walked to Li Longji's side.
Li Longji introduced everyone in the Yang family to Zhou Jun.
When introducing Yang Zhao, Li Longji said to Zhou Jun: "Jun is a heavy strategy, and Zhao is a golden fold. Both are tools and can be used by the country. In this way, you two are like my right-hand man."
Yang Yuhuan also smiled and said: "Brother Yang Zhao is very popular among the Yang family. Everyone in the family, big and small, thinks of him well. Occasionally he acts carelessly, but he soon reflects on himself."
After speaking, Yang Yuhuan looked at Yang Zhao and gave the latter a wink.
Yang Zhao frowned, raised the wine glass in his hand, and said to Zhou Jun: "Zhao and Zhou Jun have known each other for a long time. They have met several times in Chang'an and Luoyang, but they have been together less and separated more, and they can't wait to meet each other. Now,
Zhao is very happy that Zhou Yilang has become the emperor's son-in-law. You and I will definitely move around more in the future."
Seeing this situation, Zhou Jun couldn't understand why.
Because of his contribution to the Daqi trade route, he was appreciated by the saint, but he also attracted the hatred of Yang Zhao.
He married Princess Wanchun, who had a good personal relationship with Yang Yuhuan.
Therefore, Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan turned around and planned to ease the conflict between Yang Zhao and themselves.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jun raised his glass, bowed and said to Yang Zhao: "Jun came from a humble background. When we met in the past, you did not despise my status and were willing to condescend to make friends with me. Jun will keep this in mind and be grateful all the time."
Zhou Jun's attitude was sincere. After hearing this, Yang Zhao looked slightly better.
Zhou Jun said again: "Jun is young and weak, so I will treat you as my brother. From now on, I will never refuse if I am asked to do something by you."
As soon as he said this, Yang Zhao sighed lightly, raised his glass with Zhou Jun, and drank the wine in the glass.
Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan just thought that they had settled their differences and laughed together. Zhou Jun sat back in the banquet, and everyone in the Yang family left the hall and returned to the first floor of Huaxianhui Building.
Yang Yuhuan asked Yin Yu: "The princess mansion is still under construction. Now you and your wife are temporarily living in Bachuan Villa. Is there any inconvenience?"
Yin Yu shook his head and said: "The scenery of Bachuan Villa is beautiful. It is close to the market and has everything you need to eat, drink and have fun. What inconvenience is there?"
Hearing about the Bachuan Market, Li Longji asked Zhou Jun: "I heard that the market was originally a barren land. It was Zhou Zuolang who planned and managed it and it became the scale it is now?"
Zhou Jun: "Your Majesty, I don't dare to take credit for the development of Bachuan Market to this day. I only took the lead. Later, many capable people and strangers helped to build it into what it is today." Reading La
Li Longji nodded after hearing this, and then asked: "How much profit will Bachuan Market make in one year?"
Zhou Jun made a calculation in his mind and said: "Jiazhou, Xizhou, Xizhou, annual rent, lake property, private market, etc., all calculated, it is almost a million dollars."
Li Longji paused with the chopsticks in his hand, raised his head and confirmed to Zhou Jun: "A million strings?"
Yang Yuhuan gently covered her mouth with her hand, looking shocked.
Li Longji calmly put down his chopsticks and asked again: "I also heard that in addition to the fixed annual revenue of Bachuan Market, the biggest profit comes from selling houses?"
Zhou Jun nodded and said: "At first, Bachuan Market sold the land directly to buyers, allowing the buyers to build their own houses. However, the income from selling the land was not only small, but also the buyers had to go to great lengths to design their own homes.
, construction, and decoration also found it inconvenient. Therefore, Bachuan Market changed the sale of land to house sales. That is, Bachuan measured and divided the land, and then unified the design, piling, beaming, wall building, roofing, etc. to the buyer.
All you need to do is approve the model house before buying or selling it, and then come and inspect it after it’s completed.”
Yang Yuhuan was puzzled: "What if a buyer is dissatisfied with the sample and plans to design it himself?"
Zhou Jun: “If a buyer wants to use their own design, they can customize the house, such as style, materials, compartments, courtyards, green plants... everything in the house can be customized according to the buyer’s preferences.
Customized construction. The relevant quotation will also be handed over to the buyer for confirmation after the customization plan is completed. Of course, if it is a custom-built house, it will naturally be much more expensive than buying a unified house. "
Li Longji thought for a while and asked: "Wouldn't it be a lot easier for the sellers to hand over the land to the buyers and let them build their own houses? Why should we go to all the trouble to help them build the houses and then sell them to them?"
"
Zhou Jun: "Your Majesty, because the income from selling land and selling a house are completely different. If you sell land, you can only get the silk from selling a piece of clean land. But if you sell a house, there is a lot of knowledge involved.
But it’s too big.”
Li Longji: "Oh? Please tell me in detail."
Zhou Jun: "First of all, the design drawings of the house can be written by people in the engineering field. A set of drawings only needs to be paid once, and it can be applied to dozens or even hundreds of houses, but every buyer
Every home needs to pay a design fee for this artwork. This is the design income from selling the house."
"Secondly, if the buyer finds a supplier or a craftsman to do the piling, building materials, green plants, roof tiles, interior decoration, pond excavation, etc. of the house, then the fees will naturally be charged exclusively. However, the number
Hundreds of houses are purchased together and then constructed together. There can be a discount on the purchase price and construction price. The income from this discount is the construction income from selling the house."
"Thirdly, after the land is sold, the houses built by the buyers have different styles, which may even lead to the encroachment of public land, and the daily life of the buyers will be inconvenient. Selling houses is different. Every house is unified.
Design and plan details such as water supply, roads, green plants, etc., and then assign dedicated personnel to be responsible for theft protection of each household, the dumping of kitchen waste and night fragrance, etc. The management of this public land also includes the decontamination of the courtyard.
, and you can collect a considerable sum of money, which is the management income from selling the house."
"Finally, if you only sell land, after the buyer builds the house, most of the maids and servants will have to go to Zhongshi to purchase them separately. If the house is sold, Bachuan can go to Zhongshi first, record the information of all the slaves, and then record it.
The book is handed over to the buyers so that they can compare and check one by one. If there is one they like, they will agree on a time, invite all the buyers, transport the slaves to Bachuan in a cart, and unify the sale and transfer. There can be a fee in the process.
An intermediary fee is the proceeds from the sale of the house."
Zhou Jun knew clearly that, except for the last slave income, the other three incomes corresponded to design fees, construction installation fees and property management fees that were common in later real estate projects.
When people in later generations heard these words of Zhou Jun, they thought they were nothing short of ordinary.
However, most of the landowners in the Tang Dynasty only sold land and did not help buyers build houses. Even if there were already houses on the land, the old properties were sold individually. They never acquired large areas of land and then sold them on a large scale like in later real estate projects.
Ask the design institute to design several model houses, then ask the construction team to unify the building, install and complete the interior decoration, and finally sell it.
At some point, when Zhou Jun was talking about selling his house, the surrounding princes, princesses and noble ministers all gathered around him.
When he finished saying this, the hall was silent for a moment, and no one spoke.
Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan looked at Zhou Jun, their eyes were stunned, their mouths were slightly open, and their faces were full of shock.
Yin Yu listened for a long time, but she was confused. Looking at the expressions of the people around her, she felt that her husband might have said something very powerful.
Among the others, those who understood the theory of selling a house took a breath and sighed in admiration; while those who did not understand could only ask others for help in explaining the mystery.
