Chapter 379: The Great Tang Dynasty (Part 1)
Qin Hao naturally read Dream of the Red Chamber in his previous life. Why can the Rong Duke's Mansion be so exquisite and luxurious? And I only have about 30 servants in the Rong Duke's family? So he became unbalanced and became angry and insisted on improving his living conditions in all aspects and three-dimensionally.
But if you really think of a three-dimensional method, he really can't think of it. For him, money can be regarded as infinitely large in the field of consumption. Anyway, he has never considered how much money he has. Anyway, he knows that he can't spend it all, but he just has enough money to spend it all, but he doesn't know how to spend it.
It’s not that he had thought about buying a house and buying land. If he wanted to buy a place as big as the Grand View Garden in Chang'an, it would be no problem to build a house, but their family has a small population. The main owner is only him and Li Xin, and Xiaodie is only three. Now their family is not full. Isn’t the entire Grand View Garden really a haunted house?
As for increasing the number of servants, it is even more nonsense. More than 30 people serve them, which is almost the limit. You can't match the servants who serve them with them, so it's not called spending money, it's called burning.
So Qin Hao decided that he would build a children's playground for the soon-to-be-born baby in his home.
Therefore, since the war in Goguryeo ended, Qin Hao could be said to have turned a blind eye to the outside world and was devoted to carpenter work. He had never left the house for more than half a month.
Xu Jie and Su Dingfang also moved away some time ago, so their three-entry courtyards were almost two empty courtyards. Qin Hao's local tyrannical nature was exposed, and they were used to build a garden. Li Xin, a princess, was stunned and her heart was trembling.
Except for a super large pool that uses water to change water manually every day, other places are secretly kept for the baby son.
Like slides, swings, etc., these are definitely necessary for time travelers. This guy also invented a cartoon children's castle and a water park. The kind that is made by hand-made carpenters. All the places that originally needed to be driven by electricity were replaced with artificial gear structures, one word, Hao.
It is said that the cost of a water park is about the same size in Chang'an. Once this thing is running, the maintenance fee alone is enough for an ordinary family of three to spend for forty years.
For such a thing, he invited more than 200 top carpenters in the Tang Dynasty to eat and live and eat and live in their house every day to make this thing for him.
Of course, it must be a bit of a waste to do such a thing. In fact, this thing is more of a craftsmanship. Qin Hao did it alone, so in order not to waste the unit time of outstanding talents, Qin Hao also asked them to design another thing: a textile machine.
It has been more than two years since the promotion of cotton, and the cotton harvested this year has been almost the same. After planting all these seeds, the cotton of the Tang Dynasty can be considered to be of the same size as the city. The people of the Tang Dynasty can also buy a quilt or a cotton coat in winter.
The output of this thing is so large that it is to use a spinning needle to hook cotton thread. In Qin Hao's opinion, this is a very stupid thing. A female worker can't make a few kilograms of cotton thread that she doesn't eat or drink all day long, let alone cotton yarn.
So, let’s take a look at this thing, but everyone misunderstood Qin Hao’s meaning. The masters thought that Qin Hao was using children’s parks to protect him and that the main goal was to build a textile machine. He was truly a good Duke of the Tang Dynasty who was for the country and the people.
It is precisely because of this that Li Tai and Li Yuan came to him seven or eight times and he was free from his life. The court did not blame him. They all thought that he was busy with more important things, but they didn't know that this guy was just because he was lazy and he was just easy to do this machine.
After Goguryeo finished the battle, each soldier snatched up a few general vouchers from Goguryeo and eventually deposited them into the Tang Federal Reserve. The amount of banknotes on the market increased significantly.
Although they still barely maintained the conversion between general coupons and Kaiyuan Tongbao, inflation is always inevitable. The most typical example is that no one spends copper coins, because the current price of copper is far more than that of copper coins, and it is inevitable that there will be some public grievances for a while.
Qin Hao used his toes to know that Li Yuan and Li Tai must have looked for him for this. This kind of work is the most tiring. He doesn't want to get involved at all. It's just to increase deposit interest rates and loan interest rates, and there is no need for any other means at all.
Qin Hao even felt that even if Li Yuan and the others did nothing, this phenomenon would disappear without a trace in the Tang Dynasty in one or two years.
Because, the Tang Dynasty has now entered an era of material boom.
As we all know, inflation is nothing more than a lot of money and little goods. According to common sense, the GDP growth rate of feudal society was very slow, and almost all it relies on land production.
But the Tang Dynasty is now in a blast, and it is also a very powerful type. It has a huge wealth of material resources and has driven the rapid development of the economy. So much so that after Qin Hao returned from the war, he, the instigator, was a little stunned.
The reason for the blowout is actually simple, it is just a big voyage.
When the first ship of the Qing Gang Navy was launched, it went to Southeast Asia and brought back Chameng rice from there. This thing alone was enough to more than triple the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, which is no exaggeration at all.
Because of Chameng rice, Jiangnan and Lianghuai became homes for fish and rice. Based on rice fields, there were rice fields to raise fish, mulberry fields, go up the mountain to scrape paint and go down the river to catch shrimps, and the Jiangnan region became the economic center. The total economy not only surpassed the north but was more than three times ahead.
Qin Hao even felt that it would not take long to make the prosperity of Yangzhou City more than Chang'an.
In addition to Chameng rice, the Tang Dynasty also introduced a large amount of sugar cane and cotton that Qin Hao had been popularizing for a long time, which can extend the two major industries of sugar making and textiles. As we all know, these two pieces are the economic pillars of feudal society. What is it that the explosion in the Zhenguan year?
The Tang people were much smarter than Qin Hao imagined. They thought that many things needed him to guide them to form a scale, but they were not. They were still stunned when they ate sugar cakes that day and realized that there were already dozens of sugar-making workshops in Yangzhou. It took less than two months for the Tang people to see sugar cane to learn how to make the most basic brown sugar.
Of course, sugar is still a super high-end food that only a nobleman like him can afford.
So Qin Hao, the old Yinpi, sinisterly developed a method to make white sugar and ate it secretly himself, intending to wait for the brown sugar to enter the lives of ordinary people in two years before bringing this thing to the market and specialize in aristocratic business.
