Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1755
As soon as the notice came out, there was a sensation in Chang'an.

What makes people excited is not only that the train will finally be officially opened to traffic, but also that the cost of taking the train is unexpectedly low.

It takes only half a day to get there from Chang'an to Luoyang, which is [-] li away, and it only costs [-] Wen, which is beyond everyone's expectations.

Before this notice came out, there were quite a few discussions in Chang'an about the cost of taking the train. Some thought it would cost a penny, while others thought it would cost eight hundred wen.

But no one has ever thought about one hundred Wen, because everyone thinks that it is at least five hundred Wen, and it is not impossible to get even more.

I didn't expect that it only needed a hundred texts!

What a bargain!
Of course, compared to the [-] cash for the ordinary carriage, the two pennies for the premium carriage is simply sky-high.

However, no one had any objections.

If you want to take a premium car, it means that you are not short of money. If you are not short of money, then spend more money, there is nothing wrong with it.

Moreover, the price may be higher, how can it show dignity?

The people in Chang'an are happy to see Su Cheng's behavior of being friendly to ordinary people and being slaughtered by rich people.

Of course, there are also many rich and noble people in Chang'an City, and they are also very happy after knowing that the train is divided into ordinary carriages and distinguished carriages.

This division is simply too good, they feel very caring, which means that they don't have to squeeze together with common people.

The premium compartment is definitely different from the ordinary compartment, it must be more spacious and comfortable, and the most important thing is to show your identity.

In the official office, Wei Zheng was buried in government affairs when he suddenly heard his subordinates hurrying over.

"Wei Gong, Wei Gong, good news, Rong Guogong posted a notice, and the train station will be officially opened to traffic in three days!"

Wei Zheng raised his head and laughed, "It's not surprising at all. His Majesty has already tried the train himself. Everything is ready, and it's time for the official opening of the train."

"The notice says that we will go from Chang'an to Luoyang in one day and return in two days."

Wei Zheng laughed and said, "Now only one railway has been built, so that's the only way to go."

"The notice also states the fare to be charged. Wei Gong may wish to guess how much the fare is."

Wei Zheng immediately regained his energy when he heard this, and this was what he was most concerned about.

"Three hundred Wen?" Wei Zheng mused, he felt that this was already a relatively low price.

Before that, he had been thinking about five hundred coins. Later, Su Cheng said that it was divided into premium carriages and ordinary carriages, and said that the fare for the noble carriages was set high, so that the price of the ordinary carriages could be set lower. That's why Wei Zheng was bold. I thought of three hundred words.

"Wei Gong guessed wrong! Rong Guogong's pricing is beyond everyone's expectations. A seat in an ordinary car is only [-] yuan!"

Wei Zheng couldn't help being surprised when he heard this: "What? Only one hundred Wen?"

"Duke Wei also finds it unbelievable, right? However, it is written in black and white on the notice that it is indeed a hundred coins. Now people in Chang'an are discussing it hotly. They think that Duke Rong is generous and kind!"

Wei Zheng said with a smile: "One person is one hundred renminbi, and a car can hold seventy or eighty people, that's seven or eight guan. If dozens of cars get down, it's a few hundred guan. Therefore, although the price is unexpectedly low, but For Rong Guogong, it is still a lot of money, and it is not a loss at all."

"Although that's the case, if Rong Guogong sets a price of [-] or even [-] Wen, it will cost less than taking a horse-drawn carriage, and it will be faster. People will still take the train enthusiastically. In that case, Rong Guogong can Earn more. It can be seen that Rong Guogong still has a conscience." The subordinate laughed.

Wei Zheng couldn't help but nodded and said, "You're right, Su Cheng still has a conscience. By the way, what's the price of the premium car?"

The subordinate made gestures and barked: "Two pennies! It's really high enough!"

Wei Zheng was not only emotional when he heard it, he was really tall enough!It turned out to be a full two pennies!It is twenty times higher than ordinary carriages!
At the beginning, when Su Cheng said that he would ruthlessly slaughter the wealthy people who took the train, he really did what he said.

However, Wei Zheng didn't think there was anything wrong with it, let alone complain about it.

Anyone who thinks it is expensive can go to take the ordinary car, and no one is forcing you to take the noble car!

Wei Zheng said with a smile: "It's really tall, but those who want to sit in the premium car won't be hurt. Those who feel the pain will go to the ordinary car. It's not a requirement."

In the Lizheng Palace, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun also knew that Su Cheng had posted the notice, and they were very moved.

Li Shimin is not an emperor who doesn't understand people's livelihood. He knows how much money it costs for ordinary people to take a carriage from Chang'an to Luoyang. That's why he was shocked by Baiwen.

Empress Changsun pursed her lips and said with a smile: "This announcement probably shocked many people. I guess no one would have thought that one day, a trip to Luoyang would only cost a hundred coins and only take half a day."

"I have to say, Su Cheng is still very conscientious, this is to benefit the people!"

Li Shimin couldn't help staring after hearing this: "Give it to the people? Even if you only charge one hundred coins, you can get seven or eight coins for one car, and hundreds of coins for dozens of cars. He has made a lot of money!"

"And there are also distinguished carriages. A seat in a distinguished carriage costs two coins, thirty seats equals sixty coins, and ten compartments equals six hundred coins..."

It can't be counted, it can't be counted, Li Shimin will be greedy once he counts.

Empress Changsun said with a smile: "However, on the other hand, even if Su Cheng sets a price of [-] Wen or [-] Wen, people will still choose to take the train! However, Su Cheng still chooses to set a price of [-] Wen."

There is really no way to refute this, Li Shimin nodded slightly and said: "That's true, this kid is not a money-gatherer."

A man who is rich in the world is not a man who makes money. At first, it sounds absurd, but thinking about Su Cheng's actions, it is very convincing.

In Zhao Guogong's mansion, Chang Sun Chong had a troubled expression on his face. He was very happy that the train was about to open to traffic, but he felt very distressed when the price came out.

"Father, why does Su Cheng set a price of [-] Wen! Isn't it too low? You didn't go out, and the people in Chang'an City were all dumbfounded. They didn't expect the price to be so low!" Chang Sun Chong looked unwilling .

"Before everyone talked about the minimum price of [-] Wen! Even if the price is [-] Wen, there will be an endless stream of people taking the train. Even if he thinks [-] Wen is too much, the price of [-] Wen is fine! He actually set a price of [-] Wen One hundred Wen, how much less money do you have to earn?"

No wonder the eldest grandson is anxious, this is not a matter of thousands or tens of thousands, but hundreds of thousands or millions.

However, Changsun Wuji still looked indifferent, and said calmly: "Although we have shares, Su Cheng has the final say. Since he has made a decision, he must have thought it through carefully. Besides, now that the notice has been issued, I want to It's too late to change."
