Prince of Chaos

Chapter 306

When Fang Shoushi heard Zhu Changluo ask him about the difficulties of his work, Fang Shoushi hesitated for a while, and finally said.

Fang Shoushi said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the most difficult thing about this matter is that the roads in central Beijing are not as wide as the roads in Xishan, and the pedestrians on the roads are not as well-mannered as in Xishan. It’s extremely difficult and difficult.”

After Zhu Changluo listened to Fang Shoushi's words, Zhu Changluo asked again: "Can you think of any solution?"

Fang Shoushi said: "Fachen has an immature method, but I don't know how to say it."

Zhu Changluo smiled, Fang Shoushi will finish his routine with him.

However, Zhu Changluo doesn't care what routines he does or not, as long as the final result is good, Zhu Changluo doesn't mind being routine.

Zhu Changluo said: "Let's talk about it, I'll just listen to what this immature method is."

Fang Shoushi replied: "I think that if you want to promote bus operation in the capital, the most effective way at present is to transform the roads in the capital and upgrade the roads in the capital to cement roads, so that the bus can be implemented smoothly. However, If the roads in the capital are to be upgraded, without the support of the imperial court, the Shuntian Mansion will not have the money to do so, so I am very troubled by this."

Zhu Changluo nodded, "Fangfu Yin is right. Renovating the roads in the capital city is indeed the most effective way. Moreover, it can also broaden the road conditions in the capital city during the transformation process. This method is good. In principle, Gu supports it. "

Fang Shoushi said: "But there is no money."

Zhu Changluo said: "Who said there is no money? Didn't I say that the Beijing Passenger Transport Company conducts a bidding system just like the cement industrial park? Since bidding is available, the money obtained from the bidding can be used to build and improve the roads in the capital."

After Fang Shoushi finished listening, he said again: "Your Highness, I have made a rough calculation, even if all the money in the bidding is used up, it will not be enough. The roads in Beijing and the middle of the road extend in all directions, and the total mileage is far higher than that of the Xishan Cement Expressway." How many times. The silver is not enough."

Zhu Changluo said: "It's really not enough to say that. However, everything can't be rushed. Shuntian Mansion can do it one by one. After the operation of one bus route and earning money, the second one will be opened. Then separate out the second operation line and set up a second Beijing Passenger Transport Firm for bidding. In this way, with the demonstration effect of the first company, the bidding price of the second company will definitely increase to a certain extent. In this way By analogy, wouldn’t the problem be solved?”

After Fang Shoushi listened to Zhu Changluo's words, his eyes lit up. He really didn't expect to be able to play like this?
However, after thinking about it for a while, it seems that the Daming Royal Passenger Transport Company only opened one route of the Jingxi Expressway.

Fang Shoushi carefully and repeatedly examined the profitability of this route.

Although, at first glance, it seems that there is no money to be made.However, after careful calculation, Fang Shoushi found that the profitability of this passenger transport company is really not ordinary.

They are earning silver almost all the time. Although these silvers are insignificant little money, the number is very considerable when they add up.

Therefore, Fang Shoushi also has great expectations for the future capital passenger transport firm.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your advice. Your Highness's words made me suddenly realize that I was too inconsiderate before."

Fang Shoushi thanked Zhu Changluo excitedly for his guidance.

Zhu Changluo smiled and said: "Fang Fu Yin is just a fan of the authorities. Gu only sees it clearly because he is outside the bureau. You should have no problem doing it this way. However, Gu has to say something in front, Shuntian Mansion thinks When upgrading a certain road in the capital, it is necessary to involve the Technical Research Institute of Xishan Huangzhuang and let them do professional road planning and construction. Moreover, Gu will always pay attention to it. After all, the capital is the best place. The construction of roads and the appearance of the city all show the dignity of my Daming. Therefore, we must not be stingy or act recklessly, everything needs to focus on the overall situation."

Fang Shoushi replied: "I obey the order."

After talking about this matter, Zhu Changluo finally changed the topic to the topic of summoning Fang Shoushi today.

Zhu Changluo asked: "Fang Fu Yin, you have been the Shun Tian Fu Yin for some time, I just want to know how much you know about the second counties under Shun Tian Fu?"

Fang Shoushi didn't expect that Zhu Changluo came to him for this matter.

Fang Shoushi replied: "Wanping and Daxing counties are two counties under the rule of Shuntian Prefecture. Although they are not large, the land of the two counties is the important place of Beijing secret. Since I led Shuntian Prefecture, I have been understanding And visited the details of these two counties. However, I found a problem, that is, Shuntian Prefecture does not seem to have much power to govern. For example, Shuntian Prefecture has no right to intervene in the crimes of the clan and nobles. It is stationed here, so most of the time, Shuntian Mansion seems to be passively doing things for them, and I feel very helpless about this."

After Zhu Changluo heard this, he couldn't help giving Fang Shoushi a high look. Fang Shoushi didn't whitewash him, but instead brought out the issue of Shuntian Mansion's grievances.

Zhu Changluo said: "I have written down these questions alone. There is one more question I would like to ask. I just want to know how many people are there under the Shuntian Mansion?"

Fang Shoushi took a deep breath and said, "According to the yellow book, there should be 120 million people."

Zhu Changluo was not interested in this number, because he knew that falsification of yellow books was a common thing in the Ming and Qing dynasties.As far as Zhu Changluo knew in later generations, there is a small island on Nanjing Xuanwu Lake where the population yellow book is stored. Although the yellow book there is said to be revised every ten years, most of the people who repair the yellow book are just perfunctory. Some people can actually live from the Hongwu period to the early Qing Dynasty, isn't this just a joke?

Obviously, the Yellow Book cannot be trusted.

Zhu Changluo continued to ask in a calm voice, "What about it?"

Fang Shoushi said with difficulty: "I don't know."

Zhu Changluo was really disappointed, but seeing such aggrieved Fang Shoushi, Zhu Changluo also understood his embarrassment.Although it is true that Shuntian Mansion is a third-rank official, this official is almost a display. If he really wants to make a difference, in addition to his own ability, he must also have strong support.

Otherwise, this position is at most in charge of the trivial things in the capital, and it is almost impossible to really do things.

Zhu Changluo said: "If Gu gives you absolute support and gives you another three months, can you find out the detailed population figures?"

When Fang Shoushi heard what Zhu Changluo said, he immediately replied: "I can!"

Zhu Changluo looked at Fang Shoushi who answered so resolutely, and asked, "Aren't you afraid of the clan, nobles, and intertwined family relationships in Beijing?"

Fang Shoushi said: "With His Highness' support, I am not afraid of anything."

Zhu Changluo smiled, this house guard really knows how to use chicken feathers as arrows.

However, Zhu Changluo also admitted this.

Zhu Changluo said: "Okay, then I hope you don't disappoint Gu. Gu needs a detailed and clear population data. If you still haven't produced it after three months, you can also hand over the position of Governor of Shuntian and go home. old age."

Fang Shoushi replied: "I will definitely live up to your Highness's expectations. I will definitely find out the real population of Shuntian Mansion."

"Okay, Gu will remember your promise. Of course, Gu's support for you will not be empty talk. You can do it with confidence. Everything in the future depends on Gu."

"The minister obeys the order!"
