Chapter 729: [Transportation Network]
Chapter 729:
...
Last year, the road to Songzhou was proposed to be built for convenient transportation during wartime and passive.
I mentioned it last year, and then I will continue to repair it according to the plan. Wouldn’t it be enough?
But it's now brought up again.
What I want this time is obviously not to build a passive transportation path, but to build an all-round transportation type. When needed, all kinds of materials can be transported to Songzhou. This is an active and attacking type.
In other words, the prime minister and his team had already seen a long time ago, thinking about attacking Tubo in the future.
Li Chengqian took the documents and agreed with the eyes and opinions of the prime ministers who were full of food. He had decided to let the Foreman Lu and his friends repair the road to Songzhou after going back, so that they would not be damaged after one or two years.
..
The Tang Dynasty wanted to fight Tubo, but it was not within one or two years, but it seemed that it would take at least three years later. Therefore, this road must ensure quality and cannot do tofu projects. The quality will remain at least ten years later. Only in this way can we support the capture of Tubo and take initial control of Tubo.
The third project is to build a cement road to the north.
Since the Turks were destroyed by Li Jing, the country that threatened the Tang Dynasty in the north was Goguryeo.
The demise of Hou Junji was also caused by Goguryeo spies, so Goguryeo was a country that must be eliminated for the Tang Dynasty.
It was a battle with Goguryeo, so the road had to be repaired.
The fourth project leads to the south.
Chang'an is too far from the south, which also causes insufficient control and management. Build a highway to lead to the south, which facilitates Chang'an's control of the south.
Speaking of which, in the south, such as Guangzhou in later generations, there are too many regional differences and too many cultural differences. The northerners have to manage them, but there is too much barrier.
The construction of this path is convenient for control and also promotes communication and exchanges between the north and the south.
The canal is a water road, while the cement road to be built now becomes a land road.
The canal was opened by Yang Guang, so Old Li wanted to drive a land route to compare with Yang Guang!
These four projects are available in the east, west, south and north.
After completion, it will become the main transportation road from Chang'an to the whole country. This is a trend of a traffic network centered on Chang'an. In the future, complex traffic networks can be developed in this basic trend.
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian felt that he was doing something very amazing. He was actually doing such a big thing as a traffic road!
He took the documents and walked while yyy became the father of transportation and the like. He entered the East Palace and saw Xiao Chen in front of him leaving from Lizheng Palace and going to Chongren Palace. The person she was carrying was obviously not a palace maid or something.
I don’t know who it is, and Li Chengqian didn’t ask too much.
After entering Lizheng Hall, he met Su Mi. Su Mi said sweetly to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, you are back, Xiao Chen has just gone to Chongren Hall. She..."
"Oh, I saw it." Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "I have to go out of the palace, prepare clothes for me!"
The palace is the prince. All clothes are well worn. When you go out, you are just casual clothes for traveling, so of course you have to wear them in a more ordinary way.
Su Mi was stunned: "Did you see it?"
Didn’t you just see Xiao Chen going to Chongren Palace just now? You still have to ask. “Yes!”
Su Mi breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Chen brought her sister into the palace and told her that her sister might be kept in the palace. She would wait for the palace to come down and ask His Highness for instructions. Now Li Chengqian said that he saw it, that she had asked for instructions, and with Li Chengqian's son, she also agreed. So Su Mi did not repeat to Li Chengqian.
This also caused Li Chengqian to not know why Chen Xiaowu was going to enter the palace to live.
Su Mi went to get clothes for Li Chengqian, and then took Li Chengqian into the room to change clothes.
After changing his clothes, Li Chengqian took the documents sent by the Ministry of Works and went to Xiamaling.
During the Chinese New Year and the festival, people usually start working after the Lantern Festival.
But Li Chengqian's subordinates were busier than the other, and Foreman Lu had returned to his post now.
After Li Chengqian arrived at Xiamaling, he pulled Foreman Lu into the manor and showed him all the documents.
Foreman Lu glanced at him for a few more times, then went out and called his little foremen in. Then he began to calculate the amount of these projects.
Finally, these projects will take at least three years to complete.
This project volume did not scare them. Instead, the longer the project period, the more things their engineering team will have to do, which is a good thing.
Three years is not short, but for national projects, three years is not long. Li Chengqian asked them to make a simple plan for these projects, and then asked Xiao Chen's finance department to come to them. Xiao Chen should control the money, and the Lu Foreman should control the speed of the project by Xiao Chen's rhythm.
After Xiao Chen and Lu foreman agreed, Xiao Chen asked the Ministry of Works to ask for money and obtained green cards from various places through the Ministry of Works to ensure the smooth progress of the project.
This project is about three aspects of cooperation, Lu Foreman, Xiao Chen, and the Ministry of Industry.
Of course, strictly speaking, it is the Foreman of Lu and Xiao Chen, both of Li Chengqian’s subordinates, so it is still a cooperation between the two departments.
After arranging the Lu Foreman, Li Chengqian went to Wangjiazhuang to take a look.
The Wangjiazhuang is also very busy.
Most tenants are preparing for chun plowing. As the owner of the farm, the Wang family has to prepare oxen and allocate oxen for the tenants. Cows are rare and not every family has it, so they need to be distributed by the farm to ensure the smooth progress of chun plowing.
Gui'e handed over these things to Mr. Zhou's son to arrange them. Seeing that she was like this, she wanted to train Mr. Zhou's son and let Mr. Zhou's son get up and take over Mr. Zhou's work. Gui'e and Mr. Zhou were busy with important things.
Fudan sold very well this winter, which allowed Gui'e to see the strong market of Fudan. This market is still monopolized by her family, and this market is still larger. Her Fudan eggs are in short supply, so what she has to do next is to produce more Fudan eggs to satisfy this market. Of course, she also earns more money for herself.
To increase yield, you need to raise more chickens.
Guan Zhou is no longer in the farm, and he is sent out to buy chickens everywhere to fill the farm.
To raise more chickens, there must be a large chicken farm. Just so happens that there are more than ten acres of wasteland behind Wangjiazhuang, and crops cannot be grown, so it can be used to raise chickens.
Gui'e is in charge of the repair of the chicken farm herself.
Li Chengqian walked over and looked at Gui'e so tired that she was sweating in the middle of the winter. She couldn't help but say with distress: "Why don't you let Fang Niang deal with it?"
