Chapter 477 Buying Land and Building a House
Zheng Sisi clapped her hands and said, "How could I forget? I mentioned before that we can make lotus root powder. After this batch of wild fruits is done, we can dig lotus roots and make lotus root powder.
I also saw kudzu root vines on the roadside, and we can make kudzu root powder. The soybeans are ripe, and we can make soy products. Fresh tofu can be supplied to the county town and nearby villagers, and dried tofu skin can be shipped out to supply other state capitals and towns!"
Sheng Zhen was happy for Zheng Sisi when he saw her excitement. At the same time, he also admired how she could hold so much knowledge in her little head!
In the compound, the delivery people were queuing up to be weighed. In the kitchen, the cooks were divided into several groups, all making different candies. It seemed that after a few days, everyone had mastered the skill and would be able to keep up when the buyers came back tomorrow.
The two went to the warehouse again and checked that there should be no problem with the goods ordered tomorrow, so Zheng Sisi felt relieved.
After returning, Zheng Sisi discussed with everyone the idea of continuing to hire people. Everyone agreed and said that they didn't expect that there would be more things to do after making this batch of candies. Everyone was really impressed by Zheng Sisi.
Two more busy days passed like this, and one could feel that there were more businessmen from other places in the county town.
On this day, news suddenly came from the county government that it would expand the county outside the city and build an unprecedented new city to form an inner city and outer city with the current county town.
As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation. People speculated what the new city would look like and whether it would become a prosperous commercial center.
Moreover, the method of building the city was also unique. The county government divided the land into countless plots, sold the land first, let people buy it first, and then built houses in a unified manner after paying the money. Moreover, the houses were built with cement, which was more solid and durable than those built with wood.
Everyone was very excited about the news because they knew that this way of building a city meant they had the opportunity to participate in the construction of the city and own their own property and business.
When the news of buying land and building houses was heard, everyone was excited. Some visionary businessmen saw the development prospects of Qingshui County and were raising funds to buy land and build houses.
Once the house is built, you can rent it out even if you don’t do business there. Storefronts in Qingshui County are hard to come by these days.
So, these people began to ask around about the specific procedures and prices for buying land, preparing to make a big move.
Among these people, the most active are those merchants who have been operating in Qingshui County for many years.
They are well aware that Qingshui County has great potential for future development. If they can buy a good piece of land in the new city, it will definitely bring rich returns in the future.
For a time, the entire county was enveloped by the enthusiasm for buying land and building houses. Everyone was looking forward to the rise of this new city and their own place in it.
At the same time, the news spread throughout the state capital like wings, attracting many foreign businessmen to buy land.
However, Magistrate Cao said that these lands would be sold together, and as long as the buyer paid enough money, the contract could be signed on the spot.
Once the contract is signed, the next step is unified planning and construction. The homeowner only needs to wait to receive the house in the future. The whole process is expected to take one year.
After hearing this, Duke Zheng couldn't help but admire his granddaughter and the third prince. They dared to expand a city so boldly, and their courage was really admirable.
He is well aware that this project will require huge manpower and material resources, but in the long run, it will greatly promote the development of the city and bring more opportunities.
It was a sunny day with no clouds in the sky. The weather was so good that it made people feel happy. Many people came to the gate of the county town early in the morning. It turned out that today was an important day in the county town - selling the shops and houses on both sides of the newly planned streets.
Magistrate Cao, along with the county magistrate, the chief clerk, and Mr. He, a lawyer, arrived early at the open space outside the city gate. They set up several tables and chairs, placed the four treasures of the study on them, and hung a huge street plan on the city wall, ready to start today's work.
Due to limited funds, manpower and material resources, it was impossible to build the entire street at the same time. So after discussion, everyone decided to build half of the street first. After this side was completed, the vacant land on the opposite side would be developed. This not only avoided extending the construction period, but also did not affect pedestrians and vehicles entering and leaving the city gate, which was a two-birds-with-one-stone move.
Master He stood at the foot of the city wall, holding a ruler in his hand, and enthusiastically introduced the street plan to the crowd.
He explained in detail the location, length, width and size of each street, and the size of each storefront. He spoke clearly, enthusiastically, and even spitted at me.
