Ye Chunqiu accepted all the rewards, and then sent the ritual officer out.

Old Mrs. Ye, who always said he wanted to treat guests with etiquette, lost the intention of Gu Shang's ritual officer, and hurriedly received the imperial edict and looked at it carefully.

After looking at this, Old Lady Ye's eyes were a little straight, and then she hid in the hall and asked someone to look for Ye Dong to go. I thought it was because she told Ye Dong that the issue of holding a banquet for someone to have a drink.

Ye Chunqiu was not concerned about this. What he cared about was whether the Duke of Zhenguo had complete control over the Zhenguo Mansion as he said before.

I have been an official in the capital for some time, so why don’t I know that there are all old fried dough sticks in the court? Who knows if anyone will set up any traps in it?

He was born in Hanlin, so he was most familiar with official documents and edicts. He recalled the order just now and felt that it was no problem, so he calmed down.

But I couldn't help but sigh that he pulled the Zhenguo Mansion with one hand, but I never thought that now he had become its owner, but I also felt that he deserved it.

Ye Chunqiu went to Zhenguo Mansion that day. The Zhenguo Mansion was only one mile in radius, but now it is already overcrowded.

When Ye Chunqiu entered the Zhenguo Mansion in a crane cart with a crane cart and almost didn't have to get off the car or lift the curtain, he knew that the ground was here. Because the road surfaces in other places, even on the imperial road, were paved with bricks. No matter how shock-absorbing the crane cart is, some slight bumps can be transmitted from the chassis. Although the bumps are filtered by the sofa, people are still comfortable in the car, but when the car is really driven into the concrete road, this completely different feeling appears, very stable, and almost no shaking can be felt. Compared with other roads, it is a feature of Zhenguo Mansion. Even many people in the capital came to visit specifically, which was purely due to curiosity.

Before the carriage arrived at Zhenguo Mansion, Ye Chunqiu ordered people to stop and then walk. His speculation was correct. Zhenguo Mansion could not handle it at all. It was because he chose not to give work meals to craftsmen and apprentices, nor to provide clothing, which made Zhenguo Mansion prosperous.

Between the workshops, on both sides of the road, there are buildings springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain. For any wine shop or tea shop, this place is simply their gold rush. The capital is indeed prosperous, but it is very large after all, with various markets such as East City and West City, City God Temple and Confucian Temple. The most important thing is that most people there may not have consumption power.

But here, it is completely different. Tens of thousands of craftsmen and apprentices, because they need to work, cannot make fires and cook by themselves. On the other hand, they have a lot of wages, so various foods are established. As long as almost any food store is opened and there is no business that is not popular, more people flock to come here to buy land with money, build their shops, recruit friends, and start business.

Many cheap restaurants, a meal plus a little dish is only a dozen cents. If this price is placed elsewhere, it is already expensive for ordinary people. However, for Zhenguo Mansion, where even apprentices can receive two taels of silver a month, the price is not unacceptable. Moreover, they have to eat when they work. Because of this, the business can be described as hot. It is precisely because of the entry of various stores that many friends and even chefs are necessary, but there is another interesting phenomenon.

Ye Chunqiu saw signs hanging outside at least in front of several stores, roughly recruiting various laborers, from washing dishes to holding spoons and welcoming guests, the price was not low, and even washing dishes was even included in addition to food and accommodation, adding 700 ci for the base. This salary was almost twice that of the capital.

The reason is actually understandable. On the one hand, the business here is too hot and the merchants make a lot of profits. Of course, you can't expect them to have any conscience. After all, the workshop will recruit apprentices, and other merchants are also logging in one after another. If the price is too low, I'm afraid someone may not be willing to come to apply. The master who is in charge of the listing is now three taels of silver. According to copper coins, this is nearly three thousand yuan. In addition, food and accommodation are generally treated like ordinary craftsmen.

In addition to low-priced restaurants, there are all kinds of ready-to-wear shops. There are fewer ready-to-wear in this era, and it is only because the women's clothing restaurant appeared that a trend of ready-to-wear appeared in Jiangnan.

In the era when men farmed and women weaving, women made women's red at home. Even if they refused to weave their own cloth, they would pull a few pieces of cloth to sew clothes by themselves. However, it is different here. The pace of life is too fast. Apart from work, no one has the heart to weave men farmed and women. Here in Zhenguo Mansion, two ready-made garments workshops have appeared, and three weaving workshops have invited many female craftsmen to be embroiderers, sew ready-made garments, and then sold them in the store.

There are also many high-end restaurants and inns. Not far from Zhenguo Mansion, Ye Chunqiu saw the large Changning Inn. This is a large-scale building. The standard of the building is a brick building, covering a total of five floors, covering an area of ​​seven or eight acres. They are also windowsills, made of crystal glass windows.

Ye Chunqiu could not help but laugh and cry when he looked at the word Changning. All fools knew that this was created by Shouning Hou and Jianchang Bo. They both tasted the sweetness here. Yesterday, Ye Chunqiu heard people say that they were lingering here day and night, but they didn't expect these two guys to do a big deal.

Just looking at the number of windows, Ye Chunqiu roughly estimated that the number of rooms in this large inn was as many as 200. Although this matchbox-like brick and stone building is not beautiful, the biggest advantage is that it can save space the most. The same piece of land may just be to open up a unique courtyard for seven or eight households. It is easy to create hundreds of rooms here.

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but sigh: "These two guys still had chicken blood after taking gun medicine."

Ye Chunqiu was really shocked, but when he saw the China Merchants Group not far away, he understood everything.

Changning Inn is located opposite the investment company. If you think about it carefully, it would be difficult to get such a piece of land if it were someone else. However, the ability of Shouning Hou and Jianchang Bo would be simple. There is only one reason why they acquired the land, which is a treasure pot.
