Li Yi finally couldn't help it.

A fat meal of sheep and scorpions almost didn't taste anything, and he endured it until the end of the banquet, and Li Yu couldn't wait to ask Yang Shaofeng: "Zhongning has a matter and wants to ask for help from the champion?" ”

Yang Shaofeng took the tea and gestured to Li Yu before saying: "If the prince has anything to say, as long as he can help him, there will never be half a point of excuse!" ”

Li Yi nodded, first thanked Yang Shaofeng, and then said: "Zhongning wants to ask the champion to build the so-called cement road, how much does it cost?" Especially cement, how is this thing calculated? ”

"There is no cost," after silently adding a few zeros to the price he calculated, Yang Shaofeng said directly: "If the levy is conscripted, the people will not be paid, as long as they provide meals and ensure their accommodation."

You don't need money to buy sand, you don't need to buy crushed stone, and the only thing you need to buy is cement, although the amount is larger, but the price is also cheaper.

If the cost of labor is removed, and materials such as cement and sand and gravel are calculated separately, then the construction cost of each mile of a road that is one zhang wide and one foot thick is about 1,000 guan. ”

One mile is a thousand runs, and three thousand miles is three million runs?

Of course, Li Yi also knew in his heart that this account must not be calculated in this way, because it is impossible to build a one-zhang wide road in the whole of North Korea, and many places also need to avoid special terrain such as mountains and forests, and it is estimated that the total length will more than double in the end.

If you calculate more, the cost of 5,000 miles is 5 million?

Li Yu couldn't help but feel pain again - this is just to build a road, and the cost of nine million guan is thrown in, and I don't know when it will be recovered?

If you add to that the mess of building a school and buying books, wouldn't it cost more? Not to mention the impact of delaying the people's agricultural time.

Seeing the tangled look on Li Yi's face, Yang Shaofeng simply smiled, picked up the tea and drank it.

A road needs to use cement, sand and other materials, the cost is about seven or eight times, if all the labor is included, the cost is only about ten times.

Now he has added three zeros according to the cost of ten guan, even if Li Yi wants to build a road of three thousand miles, the cost will be three million.

In the thirteenth year of Yongle, the taxes collected by the Ming treasury were only 280,000 taels of silver.

The most important thing is that there is only one cement in the world, there is no other semicolon, even if Li Yi wants to find someone else to buy it, he has nowhere to find it!

Seeing that Li Yi, whose face was constantly changing, had completely sat on the wheelchair, and all the watches and bicycles were thrown away, Yang Shaofeng put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Dajun? ”

Being shouted by Yang Shaofeng like this, Li Yi came back to his senses, and after arching his hand towards Yang Shaofeng, he asked, "If Zhongning wants to take out a loan of 10 million yuan, I don't know what I need?" ”

Seeing that Li Yi finally got into a wheelchair, Yang Shaofeng put on a confused look and said, "Didn't you already tell the monarch before?" You have to go to Xia Butang for this matter, ask him to arrange someone to calculate, and then talk about the mortgage. ”

Li Yu nodded, arched his hand towards Yang Shaofeng and said, "Then there is still a Gong Lao Zhuangyuan to introduce Xia Butang to Zhongning?" ”

Yang Shaofeng put down the teacup and said with a smile: "This is nothing, it's just a gesture." ”

After Li Yu thanked Yang Shaofeng again, he then asked: "In addition to building roads, Zhongning is most concerned about the school and children's enlightenment. ”

Okay, this is no longer taking the initiative to get into a wheelchair, this is directly lying on a stretcher!

After secretly boasting a few words about Li Yu in his heart, Yang Shaofeng thought about it and said: "Teach children to learn to look up the dictionary with the method of phonetics, and then start with three, hundred, and thousand, and then there are four books and five classics, and then you can take the imperial examination." ”

patting his forehead, Yang Shaofeng explained again: "The dictionary is a good thing, I forgot to tell Dajun last time."

After having a dictionary, if you encounter a character you don't know, you can use methods such as radical strokes to find Chinese characters, and there will be marked phonetics on them.

If you encounter a word that you can't write, as long as you know how to say it, you can also search it through phonetics, and write it according to the words on the dictionary. ”

Li Yi was overjoyed, got up and bowed to Yang Shaofeng, and thanked: "The champion is worthy of being the champion of the six heads, and his thoughts and worries are really complete, which is much more thoughtful than Zhongning's thoughts." Zhongning is here, and the first generation of the Korean people thanked the champion duke! ”

Yang Shaofeng hurriedly got up, and only after holding Li Yi did he say: "The prince is really too polite, Yang's move is not only for the people of North Korea, but also for the people of my Ming Dynasty, and he really deserves the gratitude of the king." ”

After thinking about it, Yang Shaofeng continued: "In order to let the Korean people accept Zhuyin as soon as possible, I will see if I can hire some gentlemen for the Maharaja and let them go to the North Korean school to teach the children Zhuyin." ”

Hearing Yang Shaofeng say this, Li You, who had originally maintained a courteous posture, simply straightened up, and then threw himself to the ground towards Yang Shaofeng, and bowed: "Zhongning, thank you for the champion!" After Zhongning returns to the country, he will definitely let people set up the ancestral hall of the champion duke, and I, the Korean people, will never forget the great kindness of the champion duke! ”

After scolding in his heart I believe you are a ghost, Yang Shaofeng, who got up again to help Li Yi, said with a smile: "It must not be, the Korean people should remember the monarch more!"

If it weren't for the Maharaja coming to the Ming Dynasty, if it weren't for the Maharaja thinking about the phonetics of Chinese characters, if it weren't for the Maharaja's care for the Korean people, how could these things have happened? ”

After another business blow, Yang Shaofeng stopped in moderation, and never mentioned any loans, even the matter of sending instructors that he had already said before.

What else do you need for a bicycle?

For Yang Shaofeng and the current Da Ming, it is better than anything to be able to fool Li Yu into building roads well and using money to support the dictionary that Yang Shaofeng made.

As for the matter of sending instructors and garrisons, you can take your time, anyway, Yang Shaofeng has time, so there is no need to rush at all.

arranged for someone to send Li Yi away, Yang Shaofeng hurriedly asked the dog to find Zhu Zhanji, and at the same time instructed Ling'er to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and when Zhu Zhanji arrived, Yang Shaofeng said impatiently: "Hurry up, I said, you write."

Li Yi planned to find a bank to borrow 10 million taels, and then asked Xia Laojiao to arrange someone to negotiate with him, the focus was that Daming wanted to get the right to explore and exploit the mines in North Korea.

In addition, it is necessary to have a good talk with Li Yu about the opening of a branch of the bank in North Korea, and try to let him deposit the 10 million yuan he borrowed into the bank and continue to make money.

In addition, once the negotiations with Li Yi are successful, a new cement workshop will be built immediately to increase the output of cement, but we must not delay the construction of roads and schools in North Korea. There are also printing bureaus, and we have to get a few more quickly, the dictionary is the big head, and the three, hundred, thousand, and four books and five classics are also printed.

By the way, the after-sales service has to keep up, remember to let Ji Gang get a group of rotten Confucians to come over after the year, let them follow Yi Xiao and Bai Geng to learn Zhuyin, and when they are done, let them go to North Korea to preach the teachings of the saints.

Also, remember to ask Xia Laojiao to explain to the people in the household department that those who should trade still have to trade, and encourage the merchants of the Ming Dynasty to go to North Korea to make money.

Also, the most important thing is to quickly finalize this matter with Li Ying, either let him contact Li Fangyuan to sign the contract directly, or sign it directly with him. ”

After writing a few lines frantically, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but put down the pen in his hand and said angrily: "With so much content, you can't write it yourself?" Do you have to catch me to write it for you? If I wasn't on Zhuangzi, who would you ask to write it? ”

Yang Shaofeng sneered: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and send it to the palace after writing it, this matter must be approved by His Majesty, and you have to notify Xia Laoxuan, the time is very tight." ”

Zhu Zhanji, who was stunned, pointed to himself and asked, "I write?" I'm going to the palace? Looking for Natsube again? Are you using me as a coolie? ”

Yang Shaofeng said: "Let others send it over, don't worry?" Naturally, the fewer people who know about such a confidential matter, the better. ”

Zhu Zhanji snorted hatefully, and had no choice but to pick up the pen again and write.

……

After the ink dried, Yang Shaofeng and Zhu Zhanji rode to Shuntian Mansion, ignoring that the sky had slowly darkened.

Then Xia Yuanji was carried into the palace by Zhu Laosi.

After signaling that he had no intention of handing the recital written by Zhu Zhanji to Xia Yuanji, Zhu Laosi pointed to Zhu Zhanji and Yang Shaofeng and said, "It's the two of them tossing it again, Xia Aiqing will take a look first." ”

Xia Yuanji just looked at a few lines, then raised his head in astonishment, first looked at Zhu Laosi, saw Zhu Laosi looking like an old god, and then turned his eyes to Yang Shaofeng, and asked: "Zhuangyuangong, if the old man doesn't remember the difference, the cost of building a one-mile road seems to be only a dozen times?" ”

Yang Shaofeng nodded and said, "Yes, even the cost of labor and accommodation is included, and the cost of a mile of cement road is about ten times, and the fluctuation is only half a percent." ”

Xia Yuanji, who was full of surprise, flicked the music in his hand with his fingers, and asked Yang Shaofeng: "A thousand runs!" Why does such an exaggerated figure appear in the song? So will Li Yi agree to this offer? ”

Yang Shaofeng laughed and said, "Exaggerated? R&D costs don't need to be counted? At the beginning, I had people run all over the Shuntian Mansion to find stones and get them back for repeated experiments, several days, hundreds of taels of silver, and my wisdom, not the cost? Why should he disagree? ”

"What about this?" Xia Yuanji pointed at Song Shu and asked, "Why did you want to open a bank to North Korea?" ”
