After a conversation with Zhao Zhe of Song Huizong, the two sides finally reached an agreement: Master Li returned to the palace with Zhao Zhe, and he would announce to the world that Master Li would be crowned as a concubine.

Wu Ming was the marquis of Yanggu County, and the entire Yanggu County was later governed by his uncle Wu Ming.

As the well-known living god of wealth in the Great Song Dynasty and the elder brother of Master Li, Wu Ming's dowry to Master Li certainly cannot be shabby.

Wu Ming promised Zhao Zhe very generously: All the cities of the Great Song Dynasty, no matter how big or small, old or new. All of them are reinforced and renovated by Wu Ming.

When Zhao Zhe learned that Wu Ming was going to use the latest building materials cement, steel bars, and concrete to strengthen all the walls of the Great Song Dynasty, he couldn't help but feel impressed by Wu Ming's wealth.

In Zhao Zhe's view, although he didn't get a tael of cash from Wu Ming, it was a hundred-year plan to strengthen the city, and in the era of cold weapons, the city was the most important weapon of the country, and the strength of the city was equal to the safety of the country.

Whether he has a large amount of silver in his hand or strengthens all the cities to the point of being impregnable, he still knows which is more important.

Wu Ming is not stupid to make such a promise, Wu Ming also has his own plans: first, the Yanggu County Cement Factory has hoarded a large amount of cement in Wuming for so long, and it needs to be disposed of.

Second, through the excuse of using steel and fortifying the city this time, Wu Ming was able to move a part of the dwarves from the underground world to the surface world.

After all, the construction and forging of the dwarf clan are incomparable to those of the Song people.

The third is from the perspective of the international situation, at present, the Great Song Dynasty, Jin, Liao, and disputes are continuous, and there are small countries such as Western Xia and Jiaozhi in the middle.

Although Wu Ming had invincible troops under his command, Wu Ming did not want to use them easily. At present, he is still in the honeymoon period with Zhao Zhe, what will he think if he knows that Wu Ming has so many private troops under him?

Wu Caishen, what do you mean? There are so many private armies under your command, do you want to rebel?

In Wu Ming's opinion, although the Song Dynasty was weak, as long as he strengthened the city first, with the current strength of the Song Dynasty, not to mention the attack, the defense was more than enough.

During this period, Wu Ming will find ways to improve the overall national strength of the Song Dynasty, and the so-called wealth of the country will make the people strong. Only when you are strong first can you think about fighting out.

Several traitors in the court have no conflict of interest with Wu Ming for the time being, and Wu Ming doesn't bother to pay attention to them, in his opinion, everyone has the value of use, such as Gao Yu, the reason why he didn't clean it up was to leave it to Wang Jin, and Lin Chong to deal with it.

Wu Ming, who straightened everything out, gave an order to Master Li: "Bewitch Zhao Zhe to recruit people and send troops to build roads." ”

Zhao Zhe is a playful emperor, and he basically listens to his ministers for government affairs, and basically believes whatever his favored ministers say.

But since Master Li entered the palace, Zhao Zhe has been completely infatuated with Master Li.

Not to mention Master Li's rare beauty in the world, it is the charm techniques learned in the fox clan and the classic actions that are deeply engraved in Master Li's mind that make Zhao Zhe addicted.

At the same time, under the systematic training, Master Li can be said to be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can do everything in blowing, playing, and singing. Master Li entered the palace for ten days, and Zhao Zhe did not go to court for ten days, and he did not even go back to the queen of the main palace once.

stayed here for ten days, and the queen and the other concubines were angry and scolded Master Li for being a vixen. But there is no way to take her, Master Li's backstage is too hard, and they all know that she is the righteous sister of the God of Martial Wealth.

From the rumors they heard, they knew that the God of Martial Arts was a god descending from heaven and a figure with boundless power. Therefore, he didn't dare to make any small moves against Master Li.

Zhao Zhe and Master Li stayed together for ten days, and the whole person lost more than 20 pounds, and the two were tired of being together until Master Li received a phone command from Wu Ming. Zhao Zhe smugly promised Master Li to go to court the next day.

Through the hologram Wu Ming saw Zhao Zhe, who had lost a lot of weight, he couldn't help but show a lewd smile, and said in his heart: This method is good for weight loss. After laughing, Wu Ming severely criticized Master Li again, telling her to pay attention to moderation and not to collapse Song Huizong's body.

The next day, above the court, Zhao Zhe sat on the dragon chair and listened to the words of the officials impeaching him for abandoning government affairs and not wanting to make progress. His eyes wandered everywhere, wanting his favorite to come out and relieve himself.

But this time he did a little too much, he didn't go to court for ten days, and his henchmen, Cai Jing, Gao Yu, and others didn't dare to offend Yanguan in the limelight, and they all shrank their necks and didn't see Song Huizong's eyes for help.

Wu Ming really couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward directly and said: "Your Majesty, there are no major events in the country now, instead of letting them have nothing to do, let's raise so many van troops and let them have nothing to do, it is better to recruit some more people and repair the roads in the Great Song Dynasty." ”

After hearing Wu Ming's words, before Zhao Zhe could speak, Hubu Shangshu jumped out and said: "No, now the treasury is empty, and the cost of road construction is huge, and the imperial court can't afford it." Emperor. ”

When the officials saw that they began to discuss national affairs, they stopped their verbal attacks on Zhao Zhe.

Zhao Zhe, who was finally quiet in his ears, remembered Master Li's demagogy and said to Wu Ming: "Uncle Guo, your proposal is very good, I also want to build roads, but there is no silver in this court, how can this be good." ”

Wu Ming sneered in his heart: It's not that there is no silver in the court, it's just that the silver has been embezzled by these subordinates of yours. You still trust these corrupt officials so foolishly, if they weren't useful, I would have caught them in the mountains and smashed stones.

Wu Ming, who thought of this, said: "There is no need to worry about the matter of silver, everything is with me." As long as the emperor agrees to build the road, then I am responsible for the food and clothing of these migrant workers and the van army. ”

When Prime Minister Cai Jing heard that Wu Ming actually said such a thing, he was very happy in his heart, and couldn't help but think: This is not a small amount, it seems that he can embezzle a sum of money from the middle.

Who knew that Wu Ming's next words completely cut off the minds of Cai Jing and the corrupt officials.

Wu Ming continued: In order to prevent unnecessary expenses, I have drawn up a road construction plan.

1: All the road building materials are provided by me, mainly using cement and sand to build the road, so that the road built is strong and durable.

2: During the road construction, the food of the Xiangjun and the people was provided by our group of heroes in the wine shop.

Three: I also provide all other food and clothing, but I will send special personnel to manage these, and no other personnel can interfere in the middle. In this way, corruption and waste are avoided.

If the emperor agrees with my plan, then I will pay for the construction of the road, if the emperor does not agree, then the emperor who repairs the road will find a way himself.

After listening to Wu Ming's road construction plan, all those who wanted to make money from it were all pale, and said in their hearts: Wu Dalang, you are so ruthless, you don't leave us any oil and water.

But they have no choice, one is that Wu Ming's current identity is Uncle Guo, and the other is that they have all suffered Wu Ming's losses, and they have all shaved their heads by Hu Dabai.

After listening to Wu Ming's words, Zhao Zhe asked Wu Ming with great interest: "Wu Caishen, it is not that the domestic roads are unusable now, why do you have to pay so much about road construction, and even pay for road construction for the country yourself?" ”

Hearing Zhao Zhe's inquiry, Wu Ming directly replied to a classic slogan of later generations: "If you want to get rich, build roads first!" ”
