Chapter 63 I want to get a piece of land!

On the second day, Ouyang Xiu and Ouyang Bian and his son got up early.

Ouyang Xiu's face was flushed.

Originally, he was not interested in visiting Cai Xiang's house, but today he looked very energetic.

"Look at it again, have you brought all the things?"

Ouyang Xiu urged Ouyang Bian to check again.

Ouyang Bian said helplessly: "I brought them all, including the wealth of the country, tea, and Ouyang Xiu's collection of works!"

Ouyang Xiu nodded with satisfaction when he heard Ouyang Xiu's collection of essays, and waved his hand: "Okay, then let's go!"

The festive season of the Spring Festival permeated the entire Bianjing, and the Ouyang family's carriage traveled through the firecrackers from last night and headed straight for Cai's mansion.

Cai Xiang is from Fujian. His grandfather is Lu Ren, a famous scholar in Hui'an County. His family is also a prominent family member of Fengting. In addition, he has been an official for many years and his family is quite wealthy.

The Cai Mansion looks quite appropriate, but it is not like the image of Ouyang Xiu's family living in the alley before.

Cai Xiang got up early and quickly welcomed Ouyang Xiu and his son.

Cai Xiang had met Ouyang Bian. He had met Ouyang Bian when he went up and down to Chengyuan to open the tail teeth banquet.

Ouyang Bian first kowtowed to Cai Xiang to greet the New Year and presented tea as a gift for New Year. Cai Xiang also smiled and handed over a red envelope. Ouyang Bian was not polite and reached out to take it.

After that, the guest and the host sat down and started to laugh and laugh.

"Junmo, my son likes to do some social research, and he also opened several stores to do some small business. Chengyuan was one of them last time, but I actually don't agree with it.

But he handed in a homework for a while. I looked at it, but I didn’t find any special things. Junmo was very good at managing finances, so he helped me see what this kid wrote.”

Cai Xiang took the thick book handed over by Ouyang Xiu with a smile. When he saw the exquisite binding, he secretly spat: Ouyang Old Thief is here to show off his son again. I said it's so easy to come and wish me a New Year!

Ouyang Bian sat obediently on the side, while secretly looking at Cai Xiang's expression.

Cai Xiang's evaluation is more important because Cai Xiang's financial management ability is also quite powerful.

Ouyang Xiu focused on solving the financial problems in the Qingli New Policy, but Cai Xiang was the official envoy of the Three Divisions in charge of the court's finances.

At that time, the Song court's finances were not enough to make ends meet and the "poverty" had already become deep.

Cai Xiang is good at financial management.

"Compared with the world's fullness and emptiness, and use it in quantity and use it.

It is possible to get rid of the worms, book the rules and regulations, and make all the tricks."

He is a true financial expert.

Cai Xiang opened the National Wealth Discussion with a smile.

At first, I smiled, but after reading a few pages, I looked at Ouyang Bian, who was as well-behaved as a quail, and then buried my head in the theory of wealth. When I looked up, I found that the tea at my hand was already cold, and I realized that a long time had passed.

Cai Xiang felt very rude and quickly apologized: "I'm rude and rude, I'm rude and neglected Uncle Yong."

Ouyang Xiu smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Junmo just look at it, there's nothing wrong today anyway."

Cai Xiang gently placed the book on the table and sighed, "If there was such a book during the Qingli period, our proposal..."

Ouyang Xiu waved his hand with a smile: "The Qingli period is not a crime of war."

Cai Xiang closed his mouth and said for a while: "This book is like a revelation after reading it, it is so refreshing. Could it be that Uncle Yong used the name of a monk?"

Ouyang Xiu shook his head and said, "Didn't Junmo notice it? If the business tricks inside were not explored by himself, it would be difficult to find out the truth."

Cai Xiang recalled the contents of the book and couldn't help but nod in agreement.

His eyes when he looked at Ouyang Bian again had changed, no longer the eyes of his children and nephews, because if the theory of wealth of the country was really written by Ouyang Bian, then this student's profound knowledge, especially in financial management, would be a master-level figure!

Different people who read books will have different angles, and the conclusions drawn will naturally be different.

Bao Zheng saw how hard people livelihood was, Wang Anshi saw how rich the country was, when he saw how rich the country was, when the country was about to perish. Cai Xiang saw how rich the country was, but he was thinking about how poor the country was.

These top Song Dynasty literati were the best choices in terms of vision and knowledge. If it weren't for this, the Song Dynasty wouldn't have been so rich. It was just that the roots were wrong at the beginning and dragged down so many elites.

Ouyang Bian's theory of wealth of the country is as straightforward and easy to understand, but some concepts are still somewhat abstract. Cai Xiang tried to ask Ouyang Bian for advice. Ouyang Bian naturally answered it fluently, and also explained some of the concepts divergently, using the current actual situation of the state dynasty as an example to analyze them one by one.

Cai Xiang became more and more surprised the more he heard it.

When the perspective is formed, knowledge is placed in the book. Although the author explains everything and tries to condense his thoughts into words and tells them, the length is limited, and it is separated from the reader. After all, it is different from the readers. This gap is removed, and the shining points of the original author's thoughts will be revealed without any concealment.

In Cai Xiang's eyes, in Ouyang Bian's small body, there was a giant thought as huge as a mountain.

It was not until Cai Xiang's old wife came to urge her to have a meal that Ouyang Bian's high-profile discussions were temporarily stopped.

However, this discussion continued on the dining table.

"Writing books requires practice. Practice is for writing books. This is why I opened Chengyuan. Although my original intention also means to earn some adog things." Ouyang Bian smiled.

Cai Xiang and Ouyang Xiu laughed.

"...But these are just small fuss after all." Ouyang Bian shook his head sadly.

Cai Xiang knocked on the table and pondered for a moment, saying, "Monk, do you have any ideas? Just ask them."

Ouyang Bian smiled slightly, and it turns out that communicating with smart people is awesome.

"Uncle, I want to renovate the swamp. The swamp on the side of the Huimin River is flooded every year in summer when outside the Chengzhou Gate in the southeast corner of Bianjing.

There is no land there, and there is no way to live in it. It becomes a garbage dump. Kyoto was originally a waste of land and many people, which is really too wasteful." Ouyang Bian said.

Cai Xiang frowned.

Cai Xiang knew about the place. In fact, it was not considered Bianjing City, and it was not even considered the outer city, but belonged to outside the city.

That swamp is very large, and the outer city of Bianjing City has not been easy to expand over the years because of that swamp.

The swamp area is very large and the construction is very difficult. The key is that it is often flooded, and expansion is also flooded.

Now there has become a major problem that affects the appearance of the Bianjing capital.

Outside Chenzhou Gate, even though it was the facade of Bianjing City, there was a large sludge swamp there, as if there was an ugly piece of moss on a person's face.

“There is indeed a mountain of garbage, which is not elegant, but because of the low terrain, it is difficult to arrange.

I found a lot of people to see, but no one was willing to develop it. I even looked for the store office, but no one was willing to take it.

I think you'd better not take it, because it's likely that you'll lose a lot of money."

Cai Xiang advised.

The store office was a agency specializing in the management of real estate tax in the State Dynasty. They also built houses for rent. They could be said to be the number one real estate developer in the Northern Song Dynasty or the kind of royal enterprise, because the income did not enter the national treasury, but entered the palace treasury.

The biggest reason why swamps are swamps is that they are low-lying. Because Huimin River floods every year, this land cannot be used at all.

But the reason is not entirely geographical factors, but also artificial factors.

The Huimin River, which runs through Kaifeng City, is surrounded by the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, and builds elegant garden villas by the river.

He also built an embankment in the river, surrounding the rushing river water into his own garden lake for enjoyment.

Huimin River was completely blocked because of this, and floods were caused by disasters every year.

Ouyang Bian smiled. Now all he wants is to contract the land first. When Bao Zheng comes to power next year, he will be able to curb the powerful and powerful, and then connect the Huimin River, this swamp will become a treasure land!

If he goes to compete at that time, he will not have to spend more money, he will not dare to ask about his family property.

But if you buy it now, it’s not easy to buy it. Kaifeng Mansion is willing to throw this mess to him. What’s more important is that it’s cheap!
