Of course, the imperial court has become a little richer recently due to the autumn harvest and the southern expedition, but it is not to the point of being extremely rich.
Where is Jiankang Prefecture? It was the capital of the Southern Dynasties for three hundred years.
That is a place where every inch of land is precious.
Especially on both sides of the Imperial Street near Da Sima Gate, the people living there are naturally either rich or noble. After all, from here to the north is the Imperial City, which was the absolute power center of the Southern Dynasty.
If you want the dispensary to expand directly to the south by fifty houses, let alone the inner palace, even if you take out the money from the treasury, it will not be that much, and in Jiankang Mansion, one-third of an acre is owned by your own officials.
On the ground, Li Xingchen naturally cannot buy or sell by force.
The reason why the pharmacy successfully expanded into the Royal Hospital in the end was mainly due to Li Xinchen's father-in-law.
What was the most famous thing about the former emperor Chen Xu? He was able to give birth to children. One person could almost breed a nation. Throughout the history of China, the emperor was no longer unbeatable. Even if he pulled out the princes and nobles, he would only be able to reproduce.
Liu Sheng, Prince Jing of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty, was slightly better.
And what kind of figure is Liu Sheng? He is truly a figure who was born into a nation. He greatly promoted the growth of the Liu family and the Han population.
Although Chen Xu is still a little worse, he is still pretty close. He has contributed a lot to the prosperity of the Chen family. Historically, it is precisely because there are so many people in the Chen family that even Yang Jian cannot.
If you dare to really do anything to them, forty or fifty direct royal relatives, and hundreds or thousands of collateral relatives, if you cut them all with one sword, it will make the world angry, so you can only throw them all into the capital as idlers or throw them away.
Go to the frontier and drink the northwest wind.
Chen Xu was so prolific and had many heirs. The adult princes would naturally be given the title of prince. The older ones, such as Chen Shuying, Chen Shujian and others, could already go out to join the feudal lordship. The younger ones, although they had already moved out of the palace,
But of course part of the reason for staying in the capital is that if so many people are dispersed, then Nanchen will not need to send local officials, because basically every larger state capital, county, and county can have a prince.
.
Therefore, the Jiankang Mansion is dotted with various palaces, large and small.
After Li Xingchen entered the Jiankang Mansion, the Chen royal family became prisoners. However, Li Xingchen was considered Nan Chen's son-in-law no matter what. He was the eldest brother-in-law and brother-in-law of these princes. Li Xingchen should not be too difficult for them. Basically, everyone
Let it go, someone as capable as Chen Shushen can still serve as an official in the court, but their mansion, I'm sorry, a place like Jiankang Mansion with a lot of land, please move your butt.
However, these mansions vary in size and are quite numerous. Most of the new dignitaries of the Han Dynasty actually have mansions in Jiankang Mansion. For example, the Xiao family and the Pei family only need to expand the original ones.
It was necessary to give new mansions, that is, those from Bashu and those from the North needed these mansions, but in the end they were not distributed.
Now that the Royal Pharmacy is expanding outwards, many of the places it engulfs were the former residences of royal princes. Naturally, this saves a lot of money for acquiring land, which was originally owned by the imperial court.
Naturally, the ministers and merchants in Jiankang Prefecture also donated generously, and even those who had homes in this area actively helped evacuate their houses.
These ministers are not stupid either. His Majesty took them to have a look. He didn’t really let them watch the excitement. He just wanted to tell them that this thing is very useful. Even if you don’t keep it, it can save your lives someday. So
Those who are rich should be generous. The court does not have that much money to buy land.
Needless to say, merchants, everyone has seen the results of the Southern Expedition. "Throw in peaches and repay with Qiong Yao." The current court is different from before. Be proactive when the court needs you to pay.
, the imperial court will also wear a pair of trousers with you in the future. The advantage is that it will never forget you.
Merchants will never refuse this kind of forward investment. After all, His Majesty's credit has always been good.
In return, the income from the newly built Royal Hospital will be rewarded to the merchants according to how much they spend. Although the amount is small, it will continue to flow smoothly, and the Royal Hospital, the Royal Hospital, holds the dividends of the Royal Hospital.
, it is equivalent to taking the name of the royal family. It is not impossible for everyone to brag about being an "imperial businessman" when they go out.
When doing business abroad, reputation has always been very important. If even the emperor trusts someone, everyone will naturally like to do business with him.
For Li Xingchen, who had given such instructions, he certainly took this as an opportunity to introduce a joint-stock system and used the Royal Hospital as a pilot. After all, Dahan's current financial system has fully formed a network after several years of rapid development and construction. If no new policies are introduced,
If so, it is very likely that it will develop disorderly and eventually backfire on the big man.
Therefore, as Li Xingchen, who single-handedly established the financial system of Dahan, he must provide guidance at the right time. Regarding the development of this era, whether it is the economy or industry, Li Xingchen only guides and instructs, and never says anything.
Necessary orders, he would rather let his people think and explore, and allow these theories and systems to undergo slow and smooth self-transition and development.
Some people say that the cruelest thing in history is "We have taken some detours."
Li Xingchen also hopes that he can bring everything to the Han Dynasty for future generations, so that this era can quickly enter industrialization, electrification, and finally informatization. But as a superior, he knows very well that these are just his own wishful thinking, and he
You can't do that either.
It takes time for a sapling to grow, it needs sunshine, rain and dew, and it even needs to grow more branches.
Pulling the seedlings to encourage them to grow will only make them die faster, and pruning off those branches that seem to have grown wrong can certainly make it grow taller, but a lonely trunk standing there cannot withstand any wind and rain.
If it is blown, a strong wind may break it directly.
Only a big tree with branches as lush as green clouds can withstand everything.
In Li Xingchen's view, these detours are the branches of a big tree. Although one or two branches may rob the trunk of the big tree of nutrients, for a big tree, a towering tree wants to grasp the ground and cover an area of the earth.
For a tree, branches are indispensable, and for a man, the experience brought by these detours is also indispensable. Only when these experiences exist can the man learn from them and choose the right direction to go up next time.
.
This should be the so-called spiral upward, and it is also Li Xingchen's own understanding of social development. After all, he does not study sociology, let alone philosophy.
But at least what I think about should do more good than harm to the big man.
