In the Qin Palace, Si Dou was reporting what he had seen recently to Ying Zheng: "Most of the powerful powers from the six countries have arrived in Xianyang City. They have been extremely active throughout the process, and the counties and counties along the way did not even need urging."

Ying Zheng nodded: "Huai Guzi's plan is very clever. I am very happy in my heart."

Si Dou was silent for a few seconds and then said: "In the past five days, a total of thirteen families have come to Xianyang City, all of which are top tycoons from the six countries. For example, the two brothers Xiong Da and Xiong Er from the Chu Kingdom. The two brothers from the Zhao Kingdom

Zhao Si. Therefore, South Korea and South Korea..."

Ying Zheng suddenly asked: "Has Tian Jing arrived?"

Si Dou said: "We have arrived. Tian Jing is an old member of the Qi Kingdom. King Jian of Qi surrendered without a fight, and Qi was not disturbed by the war. Therefore, Qi is powerful and powerful. This Tian Jing is the most powerful among the powerful people who migrated to Xianyang.

"

Ying Zheng chuckled: "A nobody has become the most powerful tycoon? It can be seen that there are still many tycoons from the six countries who are unwilling to migrate."

Si Dou bowed and said: "Yes. Therefore, the Chu Xiang family has disappeared, and there are royal descendants hiding in the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei."

Ying Zheng said calmly: "Send spies to find the whereabouts of these people. Monitor them closely and kill them immediately if there is any abnormality."

Si Dou responded.

Ying Zheng asked again: "How are the county guards and magistrates from various places who you were asked to investigate last time?"

Si Dou took out a piece of fairy paper with some names densely written on it. After the names, there were some notes.

Ying Zheng nodded and said calmly: "Continue to keep an eye on them. Now that powerful forces have entered Guanzhong, these county magistrates have lost their allies. It's okay if they stay on their own terms. If they do anything evil again, they will be killed."

Si Dou responded repeatedly.

Ying Zheng asked again: "What happened after the powerful powers from the six countries entered the customs? Did they collude with each other and talk nonsense?"

Si Dou said: "That's not true, they are busy buying a house."

Ying Zheng asked in confusion: "Buy a house?"

Si Dou said: "Yes. Most of the vacant houses in Xianyang City have fallen into the hands of the banished immortals. Nowadays, powerful people buy houses from the banished immortals for hundreds of yin per acre."

Ying Zheng smiled slightly and said: "No wonder Huaiguzi wants to buy the house. It turns out that he is waiting for the powerful men from the six countries to buy it."

Si Tu stood bowed beside Ying Zheng without saying a word. He was only responsible for providing information and never interfered with the emperor's decision-making.

At this time, a young eunuch came to report that Wang Wan wanted to see him.

Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Let him come in."

Situ retreated, and Wang Wan came.

After Wang Wan saw Ying Zheng, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, this Huaiguzi has done a great thing."

Ying Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Why did the Prime Minister say this?"

Wang Wan said: "Nowadays, the price of big houses in Xianyang City is extremely high. The powerful people from the six countries are accustomed to extravagance and squandering, and they cannot live in a post house or a small house. Therefore, they can only buy the house from Huaiguzi at a high price. In this way

If they come, their wealth will definitely be weakened. If the powerful's financial strength is reduced by 10%, they will be content with 10%."

Ying Zheng nodded in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Wan said: "However, there is another big flaw in this. If we don't find a solution in time, there will be serious trouble."

Ying Zheng asked: "What's wrong?"

Wang Wan said: "Nowadays, the price of large houses in the city has skyrocketed. However, there is no movement in the small houses where civilians live. If someone buys a large area of ​​small houses, demolishes them all and turns them into large houses. In this way, the prices of small houses in Xianyang City will also skyrocket.

"

"And the leaders of Guizhou may have no fixed place to live and live on the streets. Some people who have a little savings originally planned to live in the city, but now I'm afraid they can't do it."

Ying Zheng looked solemn, nodded and said: "Not bad, not bad."

He said several good things in succession, and Wang Wan suddenly said: "My lord, I do have a plan."

Ying Zheng said: "Speak."

Wang Wan said: "A few days ago, His Majesty ordered an inventory of the land. It was divided into cultivated land and residential land. Why not immediately follow this order and inventory the houses near Xianyang. Use two entrances as the boundary. Above two entrances are large houses, and below two entrances are small houses.

Registration is required. Houses of different sizes are not allowed to be bought and sold from each other. If someone buys multiple small houses and wants to convert them into a large house, he needs to report to the court."

"In this way, the increase in the price of big houses will not affect small houses. Therefore, all actions taken by Huaiguzi will only target the powerful powers of the six countries and will not affect the people of Guanzhong."

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you go and do it right away."

Wang Wan bowed and bowed, and walked away quickly.

Zhou Zheng took out all the money in his family and exchanged it for a stack of land deeds.

Last night, Zhou Zheng thought hard all night. When it was almost dawn, Zhou Zheng suddenly became enlightened and felt that the stars in the sky were brighter.

He finally figured out the secret of housing prices in Xianyang City. So, he spent almost all his money and immediately bought a large number of small houses.

He wanted to connect these small houses together and build many large houses.

After it is built, he will sell it to the powerful men of the six countries. By then, he will make a lot of money and become a richer person than Huai Guzi.

He wanted to buy ten pots for Li Xin and ten times as many gold hairpins for Mrs. Li.

Zhou Zheng clenched his fists vigorously, and suddenly thought: Why should I give them pots? Why should I give them gold and silver jewelry? Haha, if I have money, I won't spend it on them.

Zhou Zheng knew that there were many smart people in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty. Perhaps many people had also thought of this method. Therefore, he made a quick move. In order to quickly purchase the small house, the price was more than two or three times higher than the market price.

Now that it's good, the land deed has been obtained, and the mansion should be built immediately. It can't be delayed, it must be done quickly. By the time the powerful people have bought the mansion, it will be too late.

So Zhou Zheng gathered people within half an hour to demolish all these small houses. Coincidentally, these people were the same people in Guizhou who had just sold the small houses.

They had just bought a small house at a very high price, and in the blink of an eye they were hired by Mr. Zhou, and the wages they paid were also very high.

These Guizhou chiefs were very happy and ordered their family members to take the money and buy another small house. They also thought that they might become rich from this.

So they were full of energy and quickly demolished their original home without any nostalgia.

Zhou Zheng ordered: "Within one month, the house will be built for me. Within two months, the pavilions, pavilions, rockeries and flowing water must be ready. Within three months, the place must be habitable."

Ever since, it’s been a hot day here.

The house has been demolished and the bricks and tiles have been transported outside the city. Grooves have been dug in the ground in preparation for laying the foundation.

At this time, a servant ran over panting: "My lord, my lord. It's not good, the imperial decree has come down."

Zhou Zheng took a look and saw that it was his butler, Zhou Jia.

Zhou Zheng asked: "What decree?"

The Zhou family took out a piece of paper with the decree just issued clearly written on it.

Zhou Zheng looked at it for a few times and almost spit out a mouthful of blood: "Small houses and big houses... are not allowed to buy or sell each other? Doesn't this mean..."

He turned to look at the house he had just bought, which was now a wasteland with craters.

Zhou Zheng felt like the world was spinning, his body swayed twice and he fell to the ground.

The Zhou family hurriedly helped Zhou Zheng, found a carriage, and sent Zhou Zheng away.

The heads of Guizhou who were digging holes stopped one after another. They looked at the carriage that was getting further away, and they were all concerned. This Lord Zhou is a good man, and he doesn't want anything to happen to him.

Zhou Zheng was sent to his home. The doctor treated him for a long time and said, "Mr. Zhou is suffering from anxiety, but it's not serious. I'll prescribe a medicine, drink it and rest in peace. But you have to control your emotions and don't get angry."

The Zhou family nodded in agreement and sent the doctor away.

When he walked to the door, he saw a lot of Guizhou people gathered outside. Some of these Guizhou people were carrying several kilograms of eggs, and some were carrying several taels of rabbit meat.

After they saw the Zhou family, they asked cautiously: "How is Mr. Zhou doing? Can I go in and visit him?"

Zhou Jia saw the sincere expressions on the faces of these Guizhou leaders, and couldn't help but feel a little moved, so he nodded.

After they entered the door, Zhou Jia asked casually: "You guys, do you know my master?"

Those heads of Guizhou said with emotion: "Master Zhou, you are a very good man. Without Master Zhou, how could we live a good life? Although we are poor, we still understand the principle of repaying kindness with gratitude."

Zhou Jia groaned and thought to himself: "The Zhou family has suffered a series of disasters, and nine out of ten of their money has been lost. At this time, are you still helping the poor?"

While he was thinking about it, he entered Zhou Zheng's bedroom and said, "Master, there are some people outside who say they have been favored by you and want to visit you."

Zhou Zheng nodded slightly.

So those people from Guizhou filed in and asked Zhou Zheng's health in front of his bed.

Zhou Zheng looked at their faces carefully and then fainted again.

…………

Zhou Zheng was building a large-scale construction project in Xianyang City, and suddenly everything stopped, which attracted the attention of many people. When the emperor's edict spread throughout Xianyang City, everyone immediately understood what was going on.

For a time, Zhou Zheng became a laughing stock among the courtiers. In order to make money, this man did not care about the life and death of the people, and actually extended his evil hands to the small house. Now he has caused heavy losses, and he deserves it.

After Li Shui heard this edict, he was stunned: Your Majesty is your Majesty, and you have really thought carefully about it. Isn't this what urban land and rural land will be in future generations? Urban housing prices are sky-high, but rural houses are as cheap as cabbage. But

Do you want to buy a homestead in the countryside and build your own villa? There is no way.

In this way, the last avenue for the powerful powers of the six countries was blocked. They could only pay the money obediently.

The more Li Shui thought about it, the more he thought about it, and he immediately ordered the builders to double the price of the mansion.

This is basically a clear plan to trick those powerful people. The remaining powerful people who have not bought a house are all the top powerful people who have just arrived in Xianyang.

Their family is extremely wealthy, so they can indeed afford to buy a house, but... such an expensive house is a bit of a stretch.
