Li Er was right. In fact, as early as three days ago, Li Qieyou proposed to build a large polo field so that tens of thousands of Chang'an people could watch the polo game.
After returning to the palace, Li Er recruited officials from the Ministry of work and asked how much it would cost to build such a polo field according to Li forgetful's idea.
However, the cost roughly calculated by the officials of the Ministry of works surprised him.
The first is the need to requisition land and install li forget worry's plan. For such a large polo field, only those Lifang in the south of the city have enough area.
Moreover, to build such a huge polo field, the area of one lane is not enough. At least two lanes need to be combined.
Taking the map of Chang'an City, the Work Department official circled two Li Fang, Zhaoxing Fang and Da'an Fang, next to the Anhua gate of Waiguo city for Li Er.
Zhaohang square is 661 meters long, Da'an square is 955 meters long, and jingyaomen street, which is 100 meters wide in the middle of the two squares, has a total length of more than 1700 meters, and the two squares are 477 meters wide from north to south. The area is enough to build a thousand step polo field.
Moreover, the two squares are close to the Waiguo city wall. If they are combined into one, it will not affect the traffic of jingyaomen street. It is very convenient.
The cost of building houses in Datang is not high, but the land area in Chang'an city is quite high.
As the saying goes, "every inch of land is the same price as gold". Even if zhaohang square and Da'an square are located at the South Gate of Chang'an, they are the cheapest places in Chang'an City, they are still sky high.
Historically, Ma Zhou, as a censor, wanted to buy a house in Chang'an City, but he couldn't afford it, because the house sold for 2 million yuan.
Two million dollars is more than two thousand dollars and more than three hundred liang of gold.
The house Ma Zhou wants to buy occupies only one thirty second of the area of a Lifang.
At last, Li Er waved his pen and asked the Yamen to help Ma Zhou pay the house price. Only then did Ma Zhou have his own house.
Although the land price in the south of Chang'an city is much cheaper than the living area of officials in the north of Chang'an city. However, according to a rough estimate by the Ministry of industry officials, the acquisition of all the land of zhaohang square and Da'an square also requires 60000 or 70000 copper coins, more than 60 million copper coins and more than 10000 taels of gold.
This is only the price of land acquisition.
According to Li's idea, a lot of soil needs to be piled on both sides of the polo field to form a high stand.
A simple elementary school math problem, a rectangle 1500 meters long and 400 meters wide, has a circumference of 3800 meters. Ten meter high mounds were built, which was amazing in the eyes of the Tang people.
The officials of the Ministry of industry calculated the cost and estimated that it would cost no less than 50 million yuan, which is another huge cost.
In addition to other ancillary facilities, many and many, the officials of the Ministry of work reported a number of toothache to Li Er.
120 million yuan, 20000 taels of gold!
In fact, Li Er certainly took out the money. Only Cheng Yaojin's old rogue gambled today. Apart from the compensation, he fully won more than 40000 liang of gold from all officials and honourable nobles in Chang'an city.
Li Er will take half of the more than 40000 liang of gold. Cheng Yaojin will take 30% and Li forgetful will take 20%.
The gold taken by Li Er alone is enough to build this unprecedented polo field in the Tang Dynasty.
But Li Er is reluctant.
How much gold do you have to buy back if you want to buy horses in the western regions? He didn't think it was cost-effective to take it to build a polo court for people's entertainment.
"Ziyou, it takes at least 20000 taels of gold to build the horse course you said. The Treasury is really short of money for such a large sum of money. If you don't believe it, you can ask Fang Xiang, Du Xiang and Wei Gong." Li Er shared it with both hands and said he didn't have any money.
Li Er's prevaricating words would have been believed by others.
But Li forgot to worry, but he knew that half of the money Cheng Yaojin won would be given to Li Er. This goods is stingy!
Li forgot to worry about deliberately nuzui in the direction of Cheng Yaojin, saying that he knew about sharing the stolen goods: "Your Majesty, think of another way."
Li Er ignored his hint at all. He just didn't see it and didn't let go: "Ziyou, I'm also a clever woman. It's hard to make bricks without rice. There's really nothing to do."
Paralyzed, this goods belongs to the goods, only in and out.
Li Er plays such a rogue. Li forgets to worry and has nothing to do with him. Don't you understand that if you want to have output, you must have input?
Three days ago, he came up with the idea of building a polo court. But these days, Li forgot to worry about it carefully and felt that there was much to be done.
The tickets, on-site advertisements and affiliated surrounding shops of the polo field are all money.
And for a long time in the future, there will be no second Polo court of this size in Chang'an city. Are you afraid it will not be profitable?
With such a lack of entertainment in Datang, Polo is popular, but it is rare to see. Are you afraid that the stadium will not be full in every game?
Seeing that Li Er didn't want to pay, Li forgot to worry, turned his eyes, gathered around Li Er and asked in a low voice, "uncle, can you borrow money?"
"Borrow money? How much do you want to borrow? I don't have twenty thousand taels of gold to lend you." Li Er looked at Li QIAOYOU with great vigilance.
Li forgot to worry and smiled: "not much. Just borrow 10000 liang of gold."
"No!"
"Uncle, how about I pay you the interest according to the interest of the public money?"
"No, I have no money."
"Seriously not?"
"Don't borrow."
Li forgot to worry and shook his head with regret: "if uncle doesn't borrow it, I'll ask all the officials later to see if I can borrow 10000 liang of gold. By the way, I can talk to them about the gambling set up by Duke Lu."
"Come back, you bastard, be careful I smoke you! All right, when Duke Lu receives the gold, let him give you 10000 Liang. Don't talk nonsense!"
Li Eryi was worried when he heard this. The grand emperor of the Tang Dynasty, together with the founding Duke, set up gambling to deceive all officials of gold. This matter should be spread out. Does he want Li Eryi's face?
"Hey, uncle, don't worry, my nephew's mouth is the strictest." Li forgot to worry and clapped his chest to promise.
"Go away, go away, don't let me see you again today! You bastard boy, I'm so angry!" Li Er turned and left. He didn't want to say a word to Li forgetful.
Empress Chang sun and imperial concubine Yang both covered their mouths and smiled, and followed Li Er away.
After Li Er left, Li forgot his worries and was very proud. He was not at all reluctant to let the dandies invite him to pingkang square.
Thanks to these lovely dandies, he was forced to watch the polo match at the military camp of the northern yamen imperial guards.
As a result, watching a polo game not only promoted his title one level, but also earned a huge polo field in Chang'an city.
Of course, what satisfied him most was the "shining white at night". Li forgot to worry about the horse and was extremely grateful to Zhang Liang, the boy who gave money.
Good people, Datang needs such good people!
But as the saying goes, handsome but three seconds. Li forgot to worry about his complacent mood, but it didn't last too long
