Can you still build bridges?

Paving?

The word paving completely suppressed Li Shimin and the civil and military officials.

Yes, look at that wall, it's so strong, it's so flat, if you put cement on the ground, the ground will be solid and flat!

Such a flat and solid ground will greatly increase the speed of the carriage and ox cart, and increase the speed of the carriage and ox cart, which means that they know everything in their hearts.

For a while, whether it was Li Shimin, Li Jing, and Fang Xuanling, they were all extremely excited.

Li Jing and these generals think that the soldiers are expensive and fast, and the allocation of money, food and materials is far away, and people will consume a lot of grain and grass when they eat horses and chew, and increasing the speed means saving more grain and grass.

And Fang Xuanling thinks even more, improving the convenience of transportation is equivalent to revitalizing the lifeblood of the entire Datang!

As soon as Li Shimin thought of the cement official roads leading to one big city after another, and finally connecting the entire Tang Dynasty, he was excited and almost trembled.

Originally, Li Shimin only wanted a way to repair the city wall, but Su Cheng came up with a big surprise of cement!

On top of that, the cement is simple to make and uses clay and limestone, which are found everywhere.

For Li Shimin, it was too surprising and exciting!

This kid has made a lot of contributions this time!

Li Shimin excitedly put his hands on Su Cheng's shoulders and shook them vigorously.

Come on! Swing together!

Su Cheng, who had a gold star in his eyes, seemed to hear BGM.

"Su Cheng, you kid has made a great contribution! I want to build cement roads all over the Tang Dynasty! Li Shimin said excitedly.

Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Eldest Sun Wuji and others said in unison: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" ”

This is indeed a moment of excitement and congratulations, with cement, it is foreseeable that the future of Datang will be earth-shaking.

However, not everyone was congratulating the emperor, and some people had a dark face.

That person was none other than Wei Zheng.

At the beginning, Wei Zheng was very happy, cement can repair the city wall, but also build bridges, build houses, this is beneficial to the people.

But when he heard the emperor excitedly say that he wanted to build cement roads all over the Tang Dynasty, his old face sank.

"Your Majesty, by all means!"

The congratulations stopped abruptly, and even the smile on Li Shimin's face froze.

At this moment of joy and encouragement, Wei Zheng's life is really abrupt.

"Your Majesty wants to build cement roads throughout the Tang Dynasty, how many conscripts will be levied? The lessons of the former Sui Dynasty, isn't Your Majesty still introspective? The people need to recuperate, Your Majesty! Wei Zheng said in a deep voice with a dark face.

Li Shimin's face was very ugly, and when anyone was still immersed in excitement just now, it was uncomfortable to be suddenly splashed with a basin of ice water.

Su Cheng couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at Li Shimin's ugly face, Wei Zheng really deserved to be a little expert in death.

Not to mention that Li Shimin was uncomfortable being blocked, Su Cheng felt very unhappy now.

The cement was made by him, and this is his credit, how can it be erased? And he feels that cement is really of great use to Datang.

What's wrong with road building?

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and you Wei Zheng don't know what truth is at all.

"Lord Wei's words are wrong, building roads is a good thing for both the people and the court." Su Cheng said with a smile.

The eyes of the others were suddenly focused on Su Cheng's body, they didn't expect Su Cheng to dare Wei Zhenggang.

Compared with Su Cheng, an upstart in Chang'an, Wei Zheng is a real big man in the DPRK and China.

Wei Zheng looked at Su Cheng sternly, and said in a deep voice: "An Kangbo, you have indeed made some contributions since you entered Chang'an, cement and red bricks can play a great role in repairing the city wall of the border town, this is your credit, but you should not be pampered and arrogant, and bewitch Your Majesty!" ”

Su Cheng shook his head slightly and said: "It's not that I bewitched Your Majesty, it's that Lord Wei is exaggerating, and building roads is not a matter of quick success, it can be achieved overnight!" ”

Li Shimin bowed his head slightly and said: "Yes, but slowly draw it!" ”

Wei Zheng's face was still dark, and before he could say anything, Su Cheng chuckled and said, "Besides, who said that you need to be conscripted!" ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, no need for conscription? So how to build roads? Does it depend on the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works? Then you have to repair until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Month?

Li Shimin's eyes lit up and he looked at Su Cheng, but found that this kid looked like a mountain man with his own clever plan.

Everyone was waiting with blank eyes, but Su Cheng had a faint smile on his face, as if he understood it yourself.

Syllable!

Li Shimin slapped Su Cheng directly on the back of the head, and said angrily: "If you have any ideas, say quickly, what to sell!" ”

Su Cheng's face was a little dark, Li Er seemed to be addicted to pumping the back of his head, and he would come at every turn, which was too shameless!

Don't you know that everyone is envious in their hearts, in their opinion, being able to be smoked by the emperor means that it represents intimacy, which means that the emperor is really regarded as a junior.

Cheng bites the gold, but they are looking forward to their cubs being pumped by the emperor like Su Cheng, but unfortunately, they are not angry!

Su Cheng said a little helplessly: "Prisoners, don't we have a lot of prisoners in Datang?" What are you doing in prison? Wasting food? Pull them all out for labor reform! In the future, if any captives are caught, it will be even better, let them build roads and accept labor reform! ”

Cheng Yanjin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he shouted: "Okay! That's a great idea! ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he felt as if he had opened the door to a new world.

Wei Zheng said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you must not do it, this move will hurt the peace of heaven and go against the way of the benevolent monarch, you must not do it!" ”

Su Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, pedantic, too pedantic!

Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "This matter can be discussed later!" The most important thing now is to repair the city wall of the border town as soon as possible, and Fang Aiqing must draw up a charter as soon as possible. ”

Fang Xuanling hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, the minister obeys the order!" ”

said that it was a charter to come out, but in fact, there was nothing to draft, send these craftsmen down, and let the garrison below toss it.

Li Shimin, who was in a good mood, also saw the Cheng Chumo brothers next to him, compared to Su Cheng's cleanliness and tidiness, the brothers looked disgraced.

Li Shimin looked at it and nodded slightly: "Cheng is silent, Cheng is bright!" ”

The two brothers hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The minister is here!" ”

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Yes, you two have also worked hard!" ”

In an instant, the faces of the Cheng Chumo brothers turned black and red, and they said excitedly: "This is what the minister should do, and the minister is willing to go to the soup for His Majesty!" ”

Seeing the emperor praising the Cheng Chumo brothers, Cheng Yanjin was full of red and proud, if it wasn't for the emperor still here, he would definitely shout loudly.

Even so, he frowned at Wei Chigong and the others, very embarrassed.
