Chapter 62 New Field Service

The ice in the Luo River has melted, the water has become particularly clear and flowing happily. The willow trees by the river have sprouted new buds, glowing goose yellow, giving people a breath of life. Unknown wild flowers are blooming under the tree, and the breath of spring is scattered everywhere.

The sun is bright but full of tenderness, and it shines on the body like a girl's hand gently caressing it.

Xu Ping stepped on the soft land after the ice melted under his feet and walked along the banks of the Luo River. Not far away, the Luo River divided into a tributary, which was flowing to a large area of ​​newly built houses.

Yang Gao pointed to the front and said, "Ducao, is this a newly built site? Use the water of Luohe River to do things?"

"Good! Let's go over and take a look. Now that spring is on, the venue should be busy."

Xu Ping said, walking towards the large new house first. Yang Gao and Zhong Shiheng looked at each other and followed closely.

The rivers and embankments in Sishui County have been built, but fortunately there was no accident in winter and everything went well. As soon as the winter passed, Yang Gao handed over the quest to inspect the river banks to Sishui County Magistrate, and he and Zhong Shiheng returned to Luoyang.

The magistrate is known as the marquis of a hundred miles. Generally speaking, everything is in charge of the territory, and it is even greater than that of the magistrate in terms of authority. For matters such as mining, rivers and canals, etc., unless the scale is large, the magistrate is appointed as the magistrate. Unlike the state, many of these responsibilities are held by the magistrate, but the magistrate is the less.

The notice on re-establishing households has been posted, which is gentler than Xu Ping originally thought. For example, money-entry households, etc., some economic lands, such as mulberry fields, cotton fields, hemp fields and various fruit trees, have been lowered accordingly to encourage the rural people to plant these economic crops. In cities, in order to reduce the resistance of money-entry households, the weight of self-occupied houses has also been lowered accordingly. The assets of households and other companies are mainly aimed at various commercial shops.

The measures against Fangguhuohu were completely opposite to what Xu Pingyuan had originally imagined. He originally wanted to increase the weight of his own house and reduce the weight of renting shops, so as to use policies to encourage urban residents to engage in commercial activities. After repeated persuasion by Wang Yaochen and others, Xu Ping finally gave in.

The policy of setting up companies to evade funds and count household registration has been announced, but the household registration has not been checked yet, and few people have figured out the meaning of doing so. On the contrary, some companies that used to run certain businesses in partnership will be supervised by the official after the establishment of the company, and there will be less quarrels and several small companies. However, although these companies were established, no one knows what it means, which is no different from previous stores and other businesses.

In this era, the name of money shop could not be used. In the end, it was imitated by the official Jiaoziwu in Yizhou. Xu Ping Zuoxun established Huiziwu on the West Road. The name Huizi is different from Jiaozi in Yizhou, and it also indicates that there is a time limit.

Because it is not necessary to make profits from Guizhou Huizi, Huiziwu on Jingxi Road is much more conservative than Jiaoziwu in Yizhou. No, the paper coupons on the market correspond to the copper coins deposited. In principle, the paper coupons in the bank are actually deposit certificates and cannot be circulated freely. Transfers must be at Huiziwu or an official approved Jiaoziwu. However, for convenience, the amounts below five silos are stamped in advance by Huiziwu, and can actually be circulated freely.

Seriously speaking, this is not a paper currency, or even a bank coupon, but just an official certificate of approval. Now the industry and commerce on Jingxi Road are not up to standard, and are far from the level of establishing a bank, which makes Xu Ping adopt the most conservative policy. Finance has a leverage effect on the real economy. Once a problem occurs, it will be magnified exponentially or even dozens of times, and the steps cannot be too big.

What Xu Ping is most concerned about now is the various newly established venues and the preparations for Sansipu. All new policies are just changes in production relations. Without the support of corresponding productivity development, it will not be possible to proceed smoothly. If productivity cannot be developed, Xu Ping, who proposed these policies, would probably become a joke.

When we arrived at the new ground gate, the guards hurriedly saluted, and the public officials who had been supervising the daily supervision ran over.

He brought Yang Gao and Zhong Shiheng into the field. Xu Ping said to Zhong Shiheng: "Zhongping, you have to be more attentive. When the river and canal work is done, you will be in charge of these chores. Whether the Transportation Department will do things smoothly in the future depends on how these business is doing. If you do well, not only will the Transportation Department have money, but also the power to mobilize at will. No matter what happens on Jingxi Road, we are at ease with the manpower and material resources here."

Zhong Shiheng hurriedly agreed: "The officials must take good care of each other and not let Du Cao down!"

Xu Ping nodded and walked forward with the two of them.

Because of his careful work in the past few months, Xu Ping submitted a memorial to recommend that Zhong Shiheng was restored to the capital, and became the Minister of the Weiwei Temple. Although his official rank was only promoted from the ninth rank of Sima in Mengzhou to the eighth rank, this was a real official, which had a completely different meaning from the scattered official like Sima in Mengzhou. Zhong Shiheng was still very grateful to Xu Ping.

Walking through the empty courtyard, Yang Qiao said in confusion: "Why is it so stable in the interior? The new venues in the capital were not like this before. The sounds were shocking and it was very lively."

Xu Ping said: "Luoyang is different from Beijing. The goods made in the Beijing yard are mainly sold to the people in the capital. Where are so many people in Luoyang? The goods made in the market here are mainly exported. The large courtyard we are stationed now is the goods yard in the yard. The place is large, of course it seems quiet, but it is different when it comes to the workplace."

As I spoke along the way, when I arrived at the end of the compound, I saw multiple rows of gates.

The three of them randomly chose a gate in the middle and walked in.

As soon as you pass the gate, you will hear a buzzing sound. The purpose is to enter a wide avenue, with the ground paved with stone slabs, which is extremely flat. At this time, the avenue is divided into two rows, and there are carriages neatly arranged. This carriage is smaller than what was produced in the capital back then, and it is much simpler, with almost no decoration. But it is lighter and can be pulled by one person.

Yang Gao looked at it and said to Zhong Shiheng: "Zhongping, the carriages and donkey carriages are produced here. This carriage looks inconspicuous, but it is extremely durable. It can pull heavy objects, is light and convenient. It likes the business travelers who travel to the prefectures and counties very much."

Zhong Shiheng nodded and remembered silently that he had seen this carriage, but he didn't know how it was produced.
