"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, the Bathing Pool Alliance launches a new service, delivering hot water to your home."
"Selling newspapers, selling hot water at a cheap price. You don't have to boil hot water at home in winter."
The day after Bi Goo took the two kinds of medicine from the Li Family Zhuangzi, the hot water advertisement for the bathing pool was published in the newspaper.
Some of the people bought a copy to read, while others listened to others read the newspaper.
Before the bathing pool came out, it was troublesome for many people to take a bath.
In winter, it was cold in the house. Many people didn't open the fire and only ate outside.
There was no bathing service outside, except for Pyong Kang Square.
If you went to Pyong Kang Square to find someone, you could take a bath there. Women couldn't go to Pyong Kang Square.
So you could only wash your hair. It was normal not to wash your body once in winter.
After the bathing pool came out, the people had a place to take a bath in winter. The key was that the price of the bathing pool was affordable.
People with less money could take a bath once for two yuan. They could soak in a big pool.
People with more money could enjoy all kinds of services, such as a bath, a massage, a pedicure, a haircut, and ear cleaning …
When the bathing pool first opened, the people who boiled the water were exhausted and had to change the water constantly.
After some time, everyone's clothes wouldn't be so dirty anymore.
Now, a new service was launched. As long as you prepared a big bucket or even an empty tub, you could find the bathing pool and ask, and the bathing pool would send hot water to your home.
"The capital office is really changing day by day." The base of the first inspection group of the Tang dynasty was actually in the southwest corner of the imperial city.
It was a big organization. When the emperor wanted to hold a ceremony, such as praying for rain, etc., it was held here.
It was close to the people, and the people could watch from outside the city.
Now, it was given to the office of the first inspection group of the Tang dynasty. It meant that the people in the world were watching them.
All of them had been prime ministers, so they knew what Li Longji meant.
Li Longji learned from Li Yi, "The people are easy to bully, but the heavens can't bully them. Wealth is meritorious service, and the military is the country's capital. My title will be rewarded at the right time. Your salary will be paid and the people will be nourished … "
At the very least, the officials of the capital office would receive additional rewards. At the same time, those who didn't have houses to live in were also moved into new houses.
At this moment, Liu Youqiu stood on the city wall and watched as a wooden bucket cart carrying hot water set off from a nearby workshop and soon arrived at a house.
Compared to the past, it was only then that he felt so emotional.
Yao Chong, Lu Huaishen, Li Rizhi, and one other person. She was not the Prime Minister, but a former Minister, Yin Sizhen.
He resigned when Li Longji was the Emperor. After the inspection team finished dealing with the matters in Hua Zhou, Li Longji remembered him and rehired him into the Regiment.
He was seventy-seven years old this year and should have died, but he still looked very healthy.
It was probably because he had joined the group and had something to do. He felt that he could still live. Some people had lived to the age of ninety.
For example, Wang Youzhen, who had passed away two months ago at the age of ninety-nine, was not very sad at her last moments.
During the funeral, everyone was chatting and laughing. It was 99, what was there to be sad about?
Everyone was watching and feeling the changes in Chang 'an, little by little.
"The Li Family Zhuangzi has started digging again. This time, the people know what is going on. The people within five miles of the southern part of the city will be able to live in the new houses if they wait a little longer."
Lu Huaishen explained the actions of the Li Family Zhuangzi. They signed the contract, checked the situation, and started construction immediately.
At this rate, all the people in the slums would be living in the slums before November.
They had more people than the officials and built more houses. Naturally, it would take more time.
"Why don't we go take a look? Take my car." Yao Chong's car was big.
He had resigned as the Prime Minister, but his place of residence was not taken back.
The five of them left the imperial city, got into the car, and headed south along Vermilion Bird Avenue.
"I remember there were about a hundred houses in the west of the city." Liu Youqiu pointed to the west.
There were also houses in the north of the Forbidden Garden. The Winged Knights needed to train, so the people moved to the south of the city.
There were no houses in the east of the city. Some people went to the west of the city to build sheds for convenience during the shaking of briquettes.
The rest of the people had all run to the migrant worker area of the Li Family's farmstead.
"Li Yi built more than a hundred houses and moved them to the west of the city." Yao Chong was not worried about the west of the city.
There were not many people. Li Yi's Zhuangzi had to do it at least once.
Li Yi would consider it even if others did not mention it.
The car drove out of the Illustrious Virtue Gate and continued south. They arrived at the construction site after a while.
The captives worked hard at digging. There was a big pot every few meters.
In the pot, there were stewed vegetables, big white meat slices, pickled vegetables, blood sausage, and big bones. When the wind blew, the aroma spread.
The captives worked harder when they smelled the aroma.
They were treated well. There were no longer chicken racks, and there were no more staple foods.
The scallion pancakes were baked one by one. When one was done, it was placed in a bamboo basin, covered with a lid, and covered with a quilt.
Not to mention the captives, even the commoners who came to watch the show and were waiting to move were drooling.
"Everyone, let's help. This is a house we're building for ourselves."
Some commoners were anxious. They hoped that the houses would be built quickly so that they could move in the next day.
When the others heard this, they were also anxious, but they did not have the tools.
"Everyone, go home and do your own work. Making money is the most important thing. Don't watch."
The Li Family Zhuangzi's supervisor saw that the commoners wanted to help and quickly stopped them. The captives had a tacit understanding. If outsiders joined, it would delay the progress.
These people lived in shacks, but they still worked for the Li Family Zhuangzi.
They were paid for their work, so they just watched the show for a while.
"Let's go, let's go. Don't make trouble." An older person shouted. The others left looking back every three steps.
A few days ago, they saw the new houses built ten miles behind them. Then, the officials moved in. They were envious.
They heard that the Emperor gave the officials benefits because he wanted them to be honest. They could not be jealous.
They did not expect that after a few days, it would be their turn to live in a new house.
It was also said that the Emperor could not bear to see the commoners living in shacks, so he asked the Li Family Zhuangzi to work.
"The captives that Li Yi bought are really useful. He did not spend money in vain." Li Rizhi watched the captives work through the window.
"Except for his willingness to donate, he has never done a business that loses money.
The captives do not have family members. They are full of strength. As long as they eat and drink, they can work quickly. "
Yao Chong smelled the fragrance of the stew and was a little hungry.
He was also amazed by Li Yi's means. Whether it was business, management, or even captives, he was willing to work hard.
There were nearly 30,000 surrendered households in Hua Zhou. Before winter, the mountains to be farmed were cleared.
The trees and shrubs that were cleared were firewood for the surrendered households in winter.
In addition to learning to understand and speak the Tang dynasty's language, the surrendered households also learned weaving and breeding techniques.
The breeding techniques were taught in the past, but they did not really raise them. The weaving techniques were given to them and they were slowly weaving.
Lu Huaishen smiled. "Li Yi has done too many things for the Tang dynasty. What will happen in the future?"
