Chapter 414: Negotiations are underway
Better and faster?
First of all, there is not, in Wang Zhonghe's cognition, the concrete road is already the best!
And, of course, the slate-paved ones! But the cost of the two is very different, and fools know which one to use!
Looking at the confident Sao Nian standing next to the notice board, several people were silent!
"Shi Pinghou, what's straight!" Zheng Hao was very curious, but he didn't have any other concerns, and he didn't have as much thought as those old foxes.
"So be it!" Ding Yi pinched his chin and cleared his mind.
"Now you know that concrete roads are affordable and durable, and once they are built, they will be transported several times faster. Faster shipping, that's what we want. But now we are stuck in a misconception! ”
"Thinking Mistakes?" Li Cungong frowned and said, I can understand a lot of the words here, but I don't understand them when they are combined.
"Uh......"
"To put it simply, now we only think that building roads can increase the speed of transportation, but have you ever thought about improving or researching new means of transportation to improve it?"
"We used to haul goods in horse-drawn carts, but now we have more options – tricycles!"
"And this tricycle doesn't need horses, people can! With tricycles, the people didn't need horse-drawn carts, they didn't have money to buy horses! ”
"You don't need an ox cart, there can be a few cows in a village, and you should have seen the speed of the ox cart!"
With such an explanation, several people instantly woke up.
It's just that......
"Minister Ding, I understand you! But...... What do you have to do with road building? "Wang Zhonghe's face is weird, and he can't bear to sit here and listen to your beard?
"Okay, I'm not going to sell it anymore!" Seeing that he had aroused these interests, Ding Yi paced and said.
Cui Bencun's face is not very good-looking, he and Wang Zhonghe have the same idea, but whenever he wants to talk, he will be pulled by Cui Yong next to him.
"Everyone understands people, and I won't hide it! Then my road construction in the Taiji Hall can be recognized because it will not harm any benefits, and there are even people who can profit from it, right? Ding Yi glanced at a few people in the field, and he didn't shy away from it at all.
Seeing Ding Yi's gaze, several people were silent and turned their heads to look aside.
"However, while this will allow the road to be built quickly, have you considered the consequences?" Ding Yi held a thin stick in his hand and tapped his palm as he walked.
Consequence?
What are the consequences of building roads?
It must be a bad consequence to hear him mean this, but how can it be bad to build this road?
"Ding Yi, you proposed this road repair, and now Your Majesty will also hand it over to you to do, what do you want Your Majesty to agree on, don't sell it now, everyone is waiting!" Li Cungong said helplessly, this son is outspoken, but he can't stand it anymore if he asks questions at every turn, sells Guanzi!
Ding Yi smiled awkwardly and waved his hand: "These guys may not care much, then I'll show it to the county king!" ”
Li Cungong's face was black, but he also guessed a little.
"The road has been built, and it has been charged, and it has been fine for a few years, but once the days are long, the people will definitely not be angry in their hearts. As for the consequences, I don't need to understand it! Ding Yi raised his eyebrows and stared at Li Cungong.
Li Cungong immediately understood that he knew that he was here to be His Majesty's mouthpiece. However, his problem does exist.
Although Wang Zhonghe and the others were dissatisfied, they were nothing, obviously they also knew the reason why Li Cungong appeared here.
"That's why I thought that this road toll will be collected for a few years, and when the contributors can recover the cost and make some profits, it will be implemented for free!" Ding Yi turned and walked back to his place and poured a glass of juice to comfort his dry mouth.
"You are certainly reasonable, but have you considered that after the toll is stopped, the imperial court will come up with money to carry out the maintenance of your road surface? There are so many states and counties in Datang, and it will be a big expense after the road is paved! Li Zebo couldn't help it, being able to sit down and listen to his nonsense was because of Li Er's face, and he didn't know the reason behind Wang Zhonghe.
"No, no, no......"
Ding Yi put down the cup and hurriedly said, "These money are from the imperial court!" ”
"Humph! The ignorant are fearless, and the annual tax revenue of the imperial court is useful, how can you do whatever you want! Cui Bencun finally seized the opportunity to humiliate Ding Yi, he is positive, he is duty-bound!
"Alas!"
Ding Yi suddenly sighed and lowered his head, and said slowly: "I will inform Your Majesty of these things, and as for the final decision, Your Majesty will come." These are just a blending relationship, but ...... Either way, this charge will eventually be removed! ”
"So, I invite you to come here today to discuss another piece of cooperation! Of course, the previous ones are not empty words, I just hope that you can support them then! ”
No way!
A few people finally understood that these two chapters are just to pave the way for the rest of the matter!
I also want us to support you to cancel the charge, I'm afraid you think too much!
In the Taiji Palace, what you keep saying will be canceled in the end?
It seems that he has already made up his mind to use the fee to arouse the interest of hundreds of officials, and then use the upcoming matter, let us help him settle the matter of canceling the fee!
How could there be such a good thing down there? Do what you want? I'm afraid it's not out of my mind!
Li Cungong looked at him with strange eyes, and went around in such a big circle, just to be able to build the road in Datang, and finally cancel the toll to popularize the public.
No matter how you look at it, this is all for the sake of Datang, and it is not mixed with any distractions of everyone!
Not bad, not bad!
The other people obviously understood, but they didn't come out, but thought about what Ding Yi wanted next.
"Let's cooperate first!" Choi Yong-do.
Ding's face was happy, it seems that these people have acquiesced!
"The road is on track, and I will resign as Minister of Transport! After that, I'll go back to Shiping and study one thing! ”
"The same thing that can change Datang and change the whole world!"
"With it, distance is no longer an issue, number of people is no longer an issue, and weight is no longer an issue!"
……
……
……
The scene was eerily quiet, and everyone looked at Ding Yi like a fool.
One thing?
Anything can change Datang, and people, distance, and weight are not a problem!
Listen, listen, what kind of bastard is this, it's a mistake to stay here today!
Ding Yi glanced at everyone, all of them looked disdainful, even Li Cungong and Zheng Hao both lowered their heads and ate vegetables, so that they could get out of this embarrassing situation.
"Okay...... Ding spread his hands and said, "I know you don't believe it, people couldn't get on it before, but I sent two people into the air with a hot air balloon!" ”
"Again, now is the time to open your eyes!"
