Jia Yujing of Red Mansion

Chapter 210
In the following days, Jia Qiong ordered the Freemasons to give priority to redeeming the land in Qinglongfang.

At the same time, let Feng Ziying and Liu Xianglian work hard to conquer those homeowners who are still unwilling to take action, even at high prices.

Of the more than 3000 acres of land in Qinglongfang, more than 1000 acres have actually been taken over by the Freemasons, with more than [-] acres left.

With the full operation of the Freemasonry, it took less than ten days to finally acquire them all.

The last batch of nail households totaled about 200 acres of land, and the Freemasonry paid a high price of 1000 taels per acre to win it.

At noon the next day, Emperor Longqing issued an edict, ordering the Fongji Department to lift the transfer restrictions in the three cities and allow all real estate to be traded freely.

This is a big deal. Qinglongfang has been completely taken over by the Freemasons. Everyone knows this.

So countless wealthy businessmen and dignitaries rushed into the remaining two markets and started snapping up real estate, waving gold and silver.

However, the homeowners in these two cities are not stupid. Originally, they could exchange for houses of similar size in Shuangquan Town.

One acre of land could be exchanged for 400 taels of silver, but they didn't exchange it, because they were determined to make a lot of money.

In addition, the last 1000 acres of land in Qinglongfang were all sold for [-] taels an acre. This news has already spread.

Although these two squares are not as good as Qinglong Square, no one is willing to sell them without seven or eight hundred taels of silver.

However, even if it is seven or eight hundred taels of silver, there is still several times the profit margin.

Therefore, the enthusiasm of businessmen still could not be stopped, and a large number of real estate transactions were completed quickly.

The wealthy businessmen were caught up in the carnival, but no one noticed that there were too many properties for sale in these two markets.

In fact, the Freemasons have secretly acquired more than half of the land in these two cities, and the two cities combined do not have [-] acres of land left to sell.

But the actual situation is that in just a few days, more than [-] acres of land were transferred.

The reason is naturally because Jia Qiong quietly sold the land acquired from these two markets at the market price.

From this alone, the Freemasonry gained a net profit of more than 300 million taels.

Those involved in the acquisition are basically big businessmen from various places, and they generally have properties in the capital.

For example, the Shanxi merchants who started out as ticket dealers, the salt merchants in Yangzhou, the maritime merchants from Fujian and Guangdong, as well as some big landowners and powerful people who wanted to take advantage.

They are the richest group of people in Dachu, and some of them even have the strength to take over all the land in these two cities alone.

Such a group of big eaters rushed to snatch a piece of small cake. No one was full, so naturally they couldn't notice anything unusual.

However, within two days, the first shareholder dividend meeting held by the Freemasons made these people depressed.

This shareholder dividend meeting is basically Jia Qiong's report meeting.

Emperor Longqing and other shareholders sat under the podium, listening attentively to Jia Qiong's pie painting.

“The work of the Freemasons in the previous stage has been fruitful, which is the result of the joint efforts of all colleagues in the Freemasonry Department and the stewards of the Freemasonry. Of course, it also relies on the strong support of all shareholders.

In the past three months, more than 22 migrant workers have been employed at construction sites and more than 50 victims have been fed.

Due to sufficient manpower, the overall project in Shuangquan Town has come to an end and is expected to be completed in early November.

The Shuangquan Town project is the first major project of our chamber of commerce, and it has basically met the expectations.

The next big project for the Chamber of Commerce is the overall renovation project of Qinglongfang.

Please look at the map. Qinglongfang is located in the southeast area of ​​Chang'an City, connected to Qujiang Pool to the south and Big Wild Goose Pagoda to the north. There are many springs that gather into streams and connect to Qujiang Pool. The geographical location is very advantageous.

The reason why Qinglongfang became a slum is because the terrain here is too low-lying.If it rains a little bit, water will accumulate here. If it rains heavily, it will be flooded.

Except for poor people, no one wants to live in such a place.

Now that we have acquired all the land in Qinglongfang, I plan to knock down all the houses here.

Then, earth was transported from outside the city to raise the entire Qinglongfang by one foot, so that its terrain would be at least the same as the surrounding area.

In addition, a large number of underground canals will be built for drainage, so that there will no longer be water accumulation problems in the future.

The total area of ​​Qinglongfang is [-] acres. Excluding road greening, there are still [-] acres available for building houses.

I position Qinglongfang as the top luxury residential area in Chang'an City.

There will be the widest roads, the best landscapes, and the most complete management measures here.

Qinglongfang plans to build 5 mansions covering an area of ​​ten acres, and the initial price is [-] taels of silver each.

There are fifty mansions covering an area of ​​15 acres, with a preliminary price of [-] taels each.

There are twenty luxury houses covering an area of ​​30 acres, with a preliminary price of [-] taels each.

There are four hundred acres of land left, and we can accept private customization services. We can build houses of more than fifty acres according to customer needs. The initial price is 60 taels of silver each.

We will invite the top garden design masters in Dachu to design individually according to the location of each house, making each house unique. "

After Jia Qiong finished speaking, he looked around and asked: "Shareholders, do you have any objections?"

After hearing this, Emperor Longqing made some calculations in his mind and found out that all the houses were sold for 300 million taels of silver. He immediately became excited.

He said happily: "President Jia, how much does it cost to build these houses?"

"Go back to the emperor and purchase all the land in Qinglongfang, costing a total of 25 taels of silver.

There are also 130 standard residential houses in Shuangquan Town, with a total cost of less than 35 taels.

The cost of building materials and green plants to build the house is initially estimated to be 240 million taels of silver.

The labor cost is estimated to be 20 taels of silver, and the total cost should not exceed 300 million taels. "

Hearing that the cost was so low, all the shareholders present were overjoyed. These people had all invested in the shares. The Freemasonry made money by themselves.

After everyone discussed happily for a long time, Luo Jin, the bachelor of Wenhua Palace, asked with a smile: "President Jia, I don't know when you plan to start the renovation of Da'an Fang and Changle Fang."

Jia Qiong glanced at him and said with a faint smile: "The Freemasonry has no plans to transform Da'anfang and Changlefang."

Luo Jin was stunned when he heard this, and many shareholders also felt a little confused.

Luo Jin asked in surprise: "President Jia, didn't the Freemasonry also acquire many houses in these two cities?"

Jia Qiong shook his head helplessly and said: "Qinglongfang has a superior location, beautiful scenery, and many springs. Naturally, it is possible to build a large house.

Those two squares are not in a good location and have no special advantages. If I build a large house in these two squares, who should I sell it to? "

He Zhongdao, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, invested a lot of money and acquired a lot of real estate in Liangfang City.

He couldn't sit still after hearing this, and asked: "President Jia, since you don't plan to transform these two cities, why do you want to acquire the houses here? Isn't this a waste of the company's funds!"
