Returning to the Ming Dynasty as a Corrupt Emperor

Transmigrated to the Great Ming Dynasty, I became Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the Carpenter Emperor. Well then, I'll hide behind the scenes; I'll take the blame, and you all go die.

Chapter 428: Wuqing Hou Li Gao Requests for an Audience

Zhu Youxiao looked at Huang Zongchang and a smile appeared on his face.

It seems I made the right choice. Apart from other things, this hunger marketing strategy is quite effective, making everyone wait impatiently before starting. However, the ultimate effect is still uncertain.

Judging from the layout and atmosphere at the scene, Huang Zongchang was likely to make a killing. This was exactly what Zhu Youxiao hoped and expected, so he stood aside, waiting to see the excitement.

"Everyone, I am Huang Zongchang. On behalf of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I welcome you all today." Huang Zongchang smiled and bowed, his attitude very polite.

No one around spoke, waiting for Huang Zongchang to continue.

Huang Zongchang said directly without hesitation: "I don't need to elaborate on the purpose of inviting everyone here today. Let's not beat around the bush and get straight to the point."

"First, let me introduce the new district's plans. Look here," Huang Zongchang said, pointing to a building on the wooden model. "This is a very important area in the future urban area. It's called the Guanguan. As the name suggests, this is where officials live."

"This is a residence built by the current emperor for the officials of the capital. As the saying goes, it is not easy to find a place to live in the capital, and this is also true for many officials. Your majesty is considerate of us all and has built this official residence."

"This official residence occupies 40% of the entire area, the largest area. Three hundred residential units will be built for everyone to live in."

Huang Zongchang introduced the official residence in great detail.

Everyone listened with great interest.

In fact, there weren't many people present, and the reason was simple: many officials couldn't come. The houses here weren't for high-ranking officials to live in, and lower-ranking officials weren't qualified to send their families here.

Under such circumstances, not many people are interested in these houses. Moreover, as can be seen from the model, most of the houses here are suites with small courtyards, which do not meet the requirements of these wealthy families.

But it is suitable for officials to live in.

Many people still doubt that this place is so small, can it be habitable if so many houses are built here?

In fact, in the design of the Ministry of Industry, a stacking method was adopted, which not only ensured the use of space, but also ensured sufficient building area and used less land.

With bricks, stone and concrete, this is possible. Low construction costs and good architectural effects are the advantages of bricks, stone and concrete.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Huang Zongchang with a smile on his face and became more and more satisfied with him.

Obviously, Huang Zongchang did this on purpose. To put it bluntly, he was still trying to whet the appetites of the people present, making them continue to be upset and irritable without being interrupted.

The residence for officials must naturally be well introduced. Officials have high status. Although it is for minor officials to live in, they are still officials after all.

Once you provoke this group, it's like stirring up a hornet's nest. It's hard to say what will happen, so everyone can only listen obediently.

Huang Zongchang was so thirsty from speaking that he drank a cup of tea and then continued his explanation.

After repeating it several times, Huang Zongchang finally finished speaking with a lingering feeling.

During the entire explanation, he said "Your Majesty is wise" countless times, expressed gratitude countless times, had red eyes countless times, and cried bitterly several times.

It can be said that Huang Zongchang’s explanation was very comprehensive and he was very good at flattery.

Zhu Youxiao wanted to laugh when he saw these people, especially when he saw the impatient and helpless looks of the people around him, who had to put on a respectful look every time they mentioned the emperor. Zhu Youxiao admired Huang Zongchang even more.

This fat guy is really capable and a talented person.

"Okay, we've finished discussing the official residence." Huang Zongchang glanced at everyone and said, "The official residence won't be sold. It will only be rented to officials. Of course, the price will be very low, maybe even free. We'll discuss the details later."

After planting this seed, Huang Zongchang pointed to the mansion next to him.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Huang Zongchang said, "This is the essence of the entire area. Built around the artificial lake of the former Shoushan Academy, there are a total of fifty mansions."

"Thirty of them have three courtyards with three entrances and three exits, and the rest have five entrances and five exits. Each courtyard has its own garden, rockery, and stream. You can rest assured about this."

"In addition, all the houses are of modern construction, and the style will definitely not disappoint you. Once the houses are completed, you will be able to see the real thing."

"This building next to it is the clubhouse for the new district. What is the clubhouse? I'll keep you in suspense. I'll take you there to experience it after it's built."

Now that the land has been leveled, Huang Zongchang is already preparing to start selling the house. As for what the house will look like after it is built, who knows now?

However, this does not mean that it cannot be praised. Huang Zongchang praised this place to the skies, saying that it has a century of history and is a place of culture and education of the Ming Dynasty. It used to be an academy and the feng shui was particularly good.

In short, it's all nonsense. If you don't buy a house here, you'll be letting your descendants down. There's an official residence next to it, and all the officials live there. If you buy a house here, you can also get a touch of official aura.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Huang Zongchang who was talking with saliva flying, and felt a sense of absurdity in his heart.

At this moment, Zhu Youxiao actually had a feeling of time and space confusion, as if he was buying a house in his previous life.

It was the same at that time. The sales manager talked nonsense and completely confused Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youxiao smiled and shook his head. This feeling seemed pretty good since he wasn't the one paying for it.
