Chapter 585 New Weather

From the second of September, the development of the lower right corner of the white paper square planned for the South District officially began. The long wooden fence surrounded the whole area, leaving only one gate to enter and exit; hundreds of craftsmen and handymen moved in and lived in a temporary simple shed.

From this day on, the ox cart full of sand, blue bricks and earth came in and out from morning to night, and the noise and horns inside also sounded from morning to night. People outside could not see the situation inside and looked curiously, but were driven away by the Song family servants with red sleeves on their arms. Go inside and wander around.

The curious people finally heard some clues from the few remaining residents who did not want to sell the land deeds of Songfu. One night, Chen Er's bald man appeared outside the fence outside the construction site. As soon as he appeared, he was recognized by a group of idle people and surrounded him.

"Hey, this is not a second bald man. What's inside? Don't you live inside?"

"Mother, my house is surrounded by fences. I got through the fence before I sneaked out. These sons of bitches are going to trap me in it. I'm so hungry that I'm dizzy."

Ah? They bully people so much, why don't you report to the official? I heard that the Ministry of Industry has finished repairing this matter.

"Reporter? These people did not break into my house, and the wall is also outside the area of my land deed. They are surrounded by other people's land. What should I take to report to the officer? It's all because of those visionless and bold things. The Song family came to collect the house. As soon as the conditions were put out, they all went to the pole to sign agreements one after another. It was really stupid. Originally, if everyone worked together, we could still get more money. Now it's all right. There are only me, Wang Laowu and Widow Li, who have been wrapped in it as dumplings, his grandmother's.

"Hee, they give you a fence for free, and you complain without giving you a penny."

"Li Goudan, are you laughing at me? Standing and talking without back pain, which makes me angry. I'll treat you to eat the eye-blocking hammer.

"Come on, how angry are you? To be serious, what kind of broken conditions did the Song Mansion offer? You are desperate to do it.

"It's nothing. The house will be given 80 taels of silver, and a new house will be given to me a year later, that's all."

Ah? Don't you agree? This Song family is really rich. Isn't this a big man?

"Bah, where they want me, I'm the uncle. If the conditions don't meet, we won't sell it."

"Second bald, you are an idiot. You are greedy. Don't think I don't know. Your house was bought for fifty taels of silver. It's shabby. It's raining outside, light rain outside, heavy snow outside, and light snow inside. People buy you with 80 taels of silver in a new house, but you think it's too little. What a fool. If it were me, it would be 80 taels of silver. Do you like to sell it or not? What else can you do if you don't sell it and keep your shabby house?

"Hey, how to talk? How can the villagers help outsiders talk?

"I'm telling the truth. If this condition is given to me, I will be the first to sign the agreement to give way. In the future, you will live in a new house, spend thirty taels to marry a daughter-in-law, ten taels to start a small business, and the remaining forty taels are stored in the bank to eat interest. Life is prosperous. Your head has been kicked by a donkey. Look, maybe they don't want your land at all now, waiting to regret it.

The two bald man was an eyesless fool. The second bald man said in a daze, "You really feel a little stupid when you say that. If you can't, I'll go to them quickly."

The second bald man raised his feet and ran away. The people hurriedly stopped and said, "Try to us first what's going on inside? It's been more than 20 days. It's hot inside, and you can't see it outside. The fence is tight and you can't see it clearly.

The second bald man slammed his lips and said, "Don't mention it, it's quite neat. The roads under our feet are all widened by more than ten feet, and the top is covered with blue stones, just like the streets in the inner city. The shops on both sides are also two-foot-three-four openings, and more than a dozen houses behind them have been built, all of which are brand-new quadrangle courtyards, which look quite greedy. I don't have time to delay here. tomorrow is the last day of the deadline they said. I have to go to their boss to make an agreement quickly.

The second bald man ran away without finishing his words and drilled into the hole under the fence in the blink of an eye.

The progress of the project is progressing in an orderly manner. After the end of the Mid-Autumn Festival harvest in September, Wan Dabao hired Wanjiazhuang and the idle people in several villages on the left. One silver per day, including three kinds of food, drink and accommodation, and three taels of silver in a month. How can this work be cheaper for outsiders, so Wan Dabao's first choice is the villagers and Zuo Jincun.

After hundreds of people joined in, the speed of leveling and building houses was also rapidly accelerating; Song Nan came to visit every day and was very relieved to see that things were going in an orderly manner. When Song Nan heard that the nail households took the initiative to come to ask for an agreement, Song Nan smiled. Ancient and modern are the same, caused by human nature, and the human world in front of interests is sometimes so ugly and ridiculous.

God seems to have some help. The autumn tiger continued until mid-October. As the north wind gradually intensified, the weather became colder day by day, and the soil gradually became hard as iron. By late October, the civil engineering on the construction site was forced to be suspended.

Hurry up, coupled with God's help, the nearly 600-person civil construction team still failed to complete the expected progress before the land was frozen, but the pattern of the whole southern area has begun to see, and 60% or 70% have been completed.

In the early morning of October 26, a frosty morning, after the early morning, the winter sun shines. Song Nan invited his father-in-law Zhang Lun, Jiang Bin, Xu Tai, Wang Yong and others to visit the construction results of the southern area. After opening the huge fence gate, a straight and wide bluestone avenue extends from east to west; on both sides of the road, brand-new pavements have been covered with the lower layer, and the pine wood boards exude the smell of rosin. Some carpenters who can continue to work, some climb on ladders to install wood-carved bird and beast decorations, some The jingling chisel of stones on the open space is still a busy scene.

"My God, this street, this pavement is no less than the street in the inner city. Song Nan, it's really yours." The young man Zhang Lun couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

How about it? Do you still have eyes?" Song Nan pointed proudly: "This is a semi-finished product. Do you see that this shop is flat? There is another floor above, so that people can live on the top and open a shop on the bottom; if you buy such a shop, you don't need to buy a house separately. There is also a yard behind, which can be changed into an inner hall or a warehouse, even if it is a garden, but this is a matter for future buyers.

"Tut, this place can't see the original appearance at all. This pattern is second to none in the capital. Song Nan has spent a lot of money." Zhang Lun smashed his mouth and looked around.

"The whole South District has spent 800,000 taels. After completion, it is expected to be 1.2 million taels, and all the family is here."

"God, brother, you are risking your life to work. How much is this shop worth? Ordinary people can't afford it." Jiang Bin said without worry.

Song Nan laughed and said, "Don't worry, the land of the capital is the place that my Ming merchants want to come, but not everyone can come. Naturally, they will value business opportunities and pavements with strength. They won't care about this little money. This shop is only sold for seven or eight taels of silver. It's a little expensive, but it's definitely worth it."

"Where did you get so much money? Didn't you raise a lot of debt?" Zhang Lun frowned.

Song Nan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let your sister drink the northwest wind. There will be a gold owner to invest in shares with me, otherwise I wouldn't have such a great ability. By the way, if the little father-in-law believes in my vision, your 500,000 taels of silver can be regarded as a share of gold and can be distributed in the future. To tell you the truth, Jiang Bin, Xu Tai, Wang Yong and Wan Zhi are all shares.

Wang Yong was stunned and said, "Your Excellency, when will I buy shares?"

Jiang Bin quickly squeezed his eyes and whispered in his ear, "Silly brother, have you forgotten the silver you brought back from Qingyang? The adult has counted a share for us, and everyone has a share.

Wang Yong laughed and said, "So it is. I'm also a shareholder. Damn, I'm in my thirties. I finally have an industry and made a fortune with adults."

Zhang Lun was hesitant. Song Nan whispered to his ear and said, "Brother, will I cheat you? This is a great opportunity to make money. Do you think anyone can have one? If you hadn't been my brother-in-law and always been good to me, how could I have told you this? In fact, I can return the 500,000 taels of silver to you now, so that the old man will not mutter, but I don't want you to miss this opportunity. Think about it yourself. Everything is voluntary. If you don't want to, I won't force it. In the evening, I will order someone to prepare 500,000 taels of silver to be sent to the Duke's mansion.

Song Nan turned his head and pointed to a fork in the road: "Go in. There are houses and alleys inside. It's more eye-opening to take care of you. Come with me."

Everyone followed Song Nan to the small alley of green brick. The place behind the shop is flat and open. The green brick paths divide the brand-new quadrangle courtyards into single-door single-door households, and the houses are staggered and arranged, with green walls and black tiles, warped corners and flying eaves, which are brand-new style. In the front and back of the house, tall trees can be preserved, and a small The river winding between several rows of houses, with arch bridges winding like moon, and there are even rockery pavilions in every corner.

Although the road of the house site has not been fully completed, it can be seen that the whole place is like a super large garden, which is an excellent place for living and living.

As everyone walked and looked, everyone's mouths were half open. With Song Nan's introduction, they unconsciously made exclaims such as 'oh', ah' and 'ho'.
