Chapter 131: The Road (2)

Wang Ke's blankness made everyone present feel a little disappointed, in their opinion, Wang Ke must have thought about the future before making this suggestion, but now Zhang Liang's explanation made Wang Ke have nothing to say, which can't help but make them a little uncomfortable.

Their attitude towards Wang Ke has now changed from suspicion to affirmation, and Wang Ke's inability to answer at this time makes them really a little troubled.

Comrade Li Er asked with some regret: "Is there really no way?" ”

In the face of Comrade Li Er's questioning, everyone couldn't speak, they only felt a fever on their faces, and the people present were all think tanks of Datang, in their opinion, as long as they got together, there was no problem that could not be solved, but today, they were stumped by such a very real problem, and everyone felt a trace of shame in their hearts.

Zhang Liang was a little disappointed when he saw this group of people being said by himself, and he also knew that everyone present was thinking about the court, and this matter made everyone a little embarrassed because of what he just said, and he also wanted to say something more, so that these people could restore their confidence and come up with any way to do this thing well.

Zhang Liang couldn't help but say: "If there is no other way, just according to what Lord Xiao Wang said, use the stone to pave it first, and then there will be a good way in the future, and the court will build a better road again." ”

"No way!" As soon as Zhang Liang's words were finished, Wang Ke objected: "This is absolutely not possible, the financial resources of the imperial court are not enough to build roads like this, the cost of doing so is too great, if there is really no other good way, the kid still suggests that this matter should not be moved, and the better way is to do it again in the future!" ”

Wang Ke's resolute rejection of his proposal moved Comrade Li Er and all the ministers present. Wang Ke did this, so that they felt that every suggestion put forward by Wang Ke was not for the sake of what benefits they could get, but for the sake of Comrade Li Er's governance, for the sake of the imperial court, and for the sake of the people of the world.

At this time, although there is no corruption and bribery, everyone wants to be a virtuous minister who will leave a name in history, and whenever he wants to put forward a proposal, he will definitely try every means to make it implemented.

For a while, as Wang Ke's voice fell, the entire imperial study became silent, everyone closed their mouths tightly and did not speak, silent, silent, making people feel a little suffocated, and there was a sense of loss in the room, which made people feel breathless.

Comrade Li Er was very unhappy with this situation, and he tried to break this atmosphere and said: "Think about it, and see if there is anything to replace the stone pavement with the current conditions, and to prevent the soil from turning up after the rain." ”

Comrade Li Er's questioning made everyone's brains in the room reactivate, and the suppressed emotions just now disappeared at once.

The mood changed, everyone's brains were more active, you said a word, and really put forward a lot of proposals, although after everyone's discussion, all the proposals were rejected one by one, but now everyone's heart, there is no such loss as just now, just thinking about how to solve this problem, so that Wang Ke, which makes everyone feel that it is necessary to start immediately, can be successfully realized.

Du Ruhui, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke at this time: "Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen, the old man has an idea, but you have to ask Lord Xiao Wang before you can decide." I also asked Lord Xiao Wang to solve the 'confusion' for the old man. ”

The last sentence Du Ruhui said was said to Wang Ke, and when he said it, he arched his hand towards Wang Ke.

Wang Ke immediately stood up and saluted Du Ruhui in return: "If Lord Du has anything to ask, the little nephew definitely knows everything. ”

Du Ruhui nodded and said: "The old man's family also built a small building with the house construction team built by the virtuous nephew. The old man just remembered that in the past few months, he has also been washed by a lot of rain, but there is no damage at all. The old man wondered, can this method also be used to build roads? Please also ask Lord Xiao Wang to make it clear. ”

As soon as Du Ruhui finished speaking, Wang Ke already vaguely felt a trace of activity in his mind, and as soon as Du Ruhui finished speaking, Wang Ke already felt as if he had seen the sun through the clouds, and there was a smooth road in front of him.

Wang Ke didn't bother to answer Du Ruhui's question, he jumped up from the chair at once, patted his forehead, and said loudly: "I'm stupid, why didn't I think of it." If it weren't for Uncle Du's reminder, I would have forgotten about this thing. This is the best road building material out there! ”

Although Wang Ke did not answer Du Ruhui's question, his performance at the moment undoubtedly shows that what Du Ruhui said is correct.

Looking at Wang Ke who was dancing, Comrade Li Er was also very tolerant because the matter was resolved, and did not reprimand Wang Ke's faux pas, but pointed at Wang Ke and said with a smile: "Look at you like this, you look like a court minister, you are completely a village urchin." Hurry up, tell me in detail what kind of material you have, so that I and all Aiqing know what's going on. ”

Comrade Li Er's words made Wang Ke slowly calm down, Wang Ke put away his excitement, and explained this method of road construction in detail to everyone present.

After the introduction, Wang Ke continued: "Although this method of road construction seems more complicated than the current method, its advantage is that it can withstand crushing, it can be used for a long time, and the repair of damaged road surface is not troublesome. As long as the new construction is strictly required and no corners are cut, then the quality can be guaranteed. ”

Wang Ke said that many benefits made everyone very satisfied, but the last thing he said cut corners made everyone a little puzzled, and in their minds, there was no such concept.

Comrade Li Er asked puzzledly: "Why cut corners, is there any benefit to doing so?" ”

How did Wang Ke know what these people were thinking, and when he saw Comrade Li Er ask this question, which was very common in later generations, he explained: "There are too many benefits. If the cost is saved, the profit will be much more; In addition, it can shorten the time, reduce the wages of the craftsmen, and save a lot of expenses. ”

Wang Ke said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "There is a greater advantage of cutting corners, that is, after doing this, the quality of the road will definitely be much worse, and the time of use will be shortened." The road can't be used, doesn't the imperial court have to build a new one, so that you can make more money? ”

When the ministers heard Wang Ke say this, they were all shocked and lost their faces, and Comrade Li Er was even more furious, and stood up with a slap on the imperial case, and said loudly: "How can this be reasonable, if I find out that I have done this, I will definitely kill his dog!" ”

As soon as Comrade Li Er's words came out, all the ministers present 'showed' their faces with their "expressions" of approval, only Wang Ke was secretly surprised, he did not expect Comrade Li Er to be so angry.

The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, since the question of how to start the construction has been decided, do you want to think about the specific method now?" For example, where to repair first, where to repair later, and how many silver taels are needed. These should be arranged in advance, and it is also conducive to the household department to arrange expenditures and the Ministry of Industry to arrange construction. ”

Comrade Li Er's anger did not subside, and he waved his hand fiercely and said: "You can discuss these things first, and then report them to me to know, so there is no need to discuss them here." I'm tired, so stand down. After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

The ministers looked at each other, looked at the direction in which Comrade Li Er had left, saluted, and retreated.

Wang Ke arched his hand towards the group of people and said, "Uncle Lao, the little nephew will also retire first." ”

When these ministers didn't react, Wang Ke ran away without a trace, leaving only this group of people to be busy again.
