382 New Chang'an City

Feihouzhou, Botan Prefecture, and Kumamoto Castle.

Why does this name sound so weird?

This city looks weird, it doesn't look like the city of the Ming Dynasty at all.

The buildings in the city are not even at all characterized by the Ming Dynasty. Except for the county government, the others are basically Japanese buildings.

Taichang stood on the wall of Kumamoto Castle, held a telescope and glanced at the buildings in the city, and frowned slightly.

To be honest, he doesn't like the name Kumamoto Castle, nor does he like Japanese architecture.

Originally, he planned to set this place as a fishery processing center in the future, because the conditions here are unique.

First of all, this place is right in the middle of Kyushu Island, which is the New Tang Dynasty Mansion, and its geographical location is quite superior.

And there is also a huge bay here, which is larger than the bay in Dongyang Harbor, so it is fine to park at many fishing boats.

Moreover, this is the most densely populated area of ​​the New Tang Dynasty. Most of the civilians migrated from Siguo Island were on the nearby plains, so there were as much cheap labor required for fishery processing.

Moreover, there were originally cities and ports here, and it was quite convenient and fast to build a fishery processing center. Just find a few open spaces to build a processing plant.

Before he came, he had decided to build a fishery processing center here.

However, he changed his mind at this moment.

Because this fishery processing center will surely become the most prosperous place in the New Tang Dynasty Mansion, and it is the place that demonstrates the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.

How can such a place be named with such a Japanese specialty name?

How can such a place be filled with Japanese-style buildings?

This is extremely unfavorable to Chineseization!

He frowned slightly and pondered for a while, then said decisively: "Drop this Kumamoto Castle!"

ah?

Not only was the magistrate who had full fields dumbfounded, but also the King of Tang Zhu Youjian.

Why is the emperor going crazy all of a sudden?

What a good city, why did it be demolished?

This is a city, not a house!

King Zhu Youjian of Tang could not help but ask: "Emperor, Xiao Wang dared to ask, why did this good city be demolished? How can we deal with so many civilians in it?"

Taichang explained patiently: "You also know that we want to build a fishery processing center here, and this place will surely become the most prosperous place in the New Tang Dynasty Mansion. Most of the civilians in the New Tang Dynasty Mansion will probably gather here.

We retain such a name with strong Japanese characteristics and so many Japanese characteristics. Isn’t this what makes them miss the past?

This will be extremely unfavorable for us to control this place for a long time in the future.

We must vigorously promote Sinology and Chineseize the common people here as soon as possible.

Therefore, this city cannot be kept.

We need to build a city with the most Ming Dynasty characteristics here."

So that's the case.

King Zhu Youjian of Tang could not help but nodded repeatedly and said, "The emperor is wise, this city must be demolished! By the way, the emperor, what is the name of the newly built city?"

This is simple.

Taichang said without hesitation: "Isn't this the Tang Kingdom? The newly built city is called Xin Chang'an City. It sounds awkward to Feihouzhou, so it can be changed to Xin Yongzhou, and Feiqianzhou can be changed to Feizhou directly."

New Chang'an City, this name is great!

In Xinyongzhou, this name is much better than Feihouzhou.

Originally, the world was divided into nine provinces, and Chang'an City was just in Yongzhou.

There is also Feizhou, which also sounds much better than Feiqianzhou.

King Zhu Youjian of Tang nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.

As soon as Taichang finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, how big is this new Chang'an city? Should it be built according to the regulations of small county towns or large county towns?"

What a small county town?

Why are you so petty?

Don’t you lose the name of New Chang'an City?

If you want to build it, build a big city!

Taichang thought for a while and then made a decision: "This new Chang'an City will be built in the current style of Xi'an Prefecture City. Just order people to take over the drawings of Xi'an Prefecture City. The Qin Palace will be changed to the Tang Palace. You will move here to take charge in the future."

This is a good thing. Not only did he live in the New Prince's Mansion, but he also handled affairs of the New Tang Dynasty Mansion here more conveniently than in Zhenwucheng.

After all, this is the middle of the New Tang Dynasty Mansion, and it is much more convenient to pass official documents on all sides of the prefectures.

The problem is that Xi'an Prefecture City is not an ordinary city. Its scale is almost as big as the inner city of the capital. How long does it take to build such a large city?

King Zhu Youjian of Tang thought for a while, then said carefully: "Your Majesty, don't you need to build New Chang'an City so big? You know, Xi'an Prefecture is considered large in all prefectures, and it's okay to live in hundreds of thousands of people! And the New Tang Prefecture has only a population of more than two million. With such a large city, most of the places will be empty!"

Is it big?

Taichang shook his head and said, "It's not big or big. You know, this new Chang'an City is a fishery processing center. There are many factories alone. Factory processing dried fish, smoked fish, dried shrimp, shrimp, fertilizer, etc. must be built very largely. Otherwise, there is no room to dry fish, shrimp, fish bones, etc.? As for the population, will it be more slowly? "

Well, drying fish, shrimp and fish bones does take up space, because you have to spread all the fish, shrimp and fish bones.

You know, there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of kilograms of fish and shrimps that can be spread out at any time. I don’t know how much place it will take.

Problem, the speed of building a city seems to be unable to keep up with the speed of building a ship!

King Zhu Youjian of Tang thought about it again and then reminded: "Your Majesty, didn't you say that the Wubei City Shipyard will speed up the progress and build five large fishing boats within three months. Problem, this new Chang'an City will basically not be built in three months. What should I do if the large fishing boats have been built and the city that processed the fishing catch has not been built yet?"

It is indeed unlikely to build a large mansion in three months.

But that was before.

There is nothing impossible now.

Because there is cement now!

There are no high-rise buildings in the city at this moment, and there are very few two-story buildings. With cement, the speed of building bungalows is simply too fast.

And there is no shortage of labor for building cities now.

Taichang said a little crazy: "There is nothing impossible. You have never seen the speed of building a city with cement. Also, there are more than 200,000 prisoners in the New Tang Dynasty Mansion at this time? They just happened to have nothing to do, so they gathered them here to build the city! I still don't believe it. I can't build a new Chang'an city in three months!"

Well, with more than 200,000 prisoners and cement, it is really possible to build the new Chang'an city in three months.

When the emperor goes crazy, nothing is impossible!

When the Tang King Zhu Youjian heard this, he bowed without hesitation and said, "The Emperor is wise!"

Taichang is really crazy at this moment, because the benefits brought by monopolizing marine resources are enough to make people crazy.

At least tens of millions of taels a year!

If this matter is done well, then the Ming Dynasty will no longer have to worry about money.

Of course, such a big thing cannot be done by thinking about it. You have to do it by doing it and mobilize enough resources to promote it with all your might.

For example, this new Chang'an City will be the template for the fishery processing center in the future. If the Ming Dynasty really dominated all the sea areas, I still don't know how many such fishery processing centers would be built.

Therefore, this new Chang'an City should not only be built quickly, but also better.

Taichang simply stayed here and stayed there!

With the emperor's personal push, the speed of building the city was naturally not slow.

Soon, officials from the Ministry of Works rushed over with the drawings of Xi'an Prefecture City. Building materials such as cement, wood, stone and other construction materials were quickly transported. The prisoners scattered in the states of the New Tang Dynasty were also escorted one after another.

In less than a few days, a huge construction site started construction.

Not to mention, the construction speed of this new Chang'an City is really fast.

Because most of the city is factories, and most of the factories are used to dry things.

This place where you dry things is the cement floor!
