Chapter 550: Expanded Chang'an City
A fast boat, moving fast on the sea.
The weather was fine, Yan Ming stood on the side of the boat, letting the wind blow the hair on his forehead.
blueprint, he gave Huo Quai. But Yan Ming also knew that Huo Quzhi would not completely follow the strategic ideas he designed.
In the war, his talent is far inferior to Huo Quai.
Fusang's matter has nothing to do with Yan Ming. His mind was now on thinking about the train.
In fact, Yan Ming was not very worried about the train that Da Lao Chen and they built. After all, this thing was built according to its own design. Even if something goes wrong, with a few minor changes, it should be up and running.
However, no matter how anxious Yan Ming was, he couldn't go directly to New Taipei City.
Chang'an is indispensable.
It is necessary to report to Liu Che.
Coincidentally, when Yan Ming's ship docked at Penglai Port, Dou Wen also arrived at Penglai Port.
When he heard the news that Yan Hou had also arrived today, he immediately happily ran to the edge of the harbor with a large stack of scrolls.
This time, Yan Ming came back in a low-key manner, only he and Han Yan came back with two entourage.
When Dou Wen saw Yan Ming's figure, he shouted at the teacher from afar with joy.
Yan Ming raised his head and looked at the man in front of him, as if he was a little unrecognizable.
It took a while to understand that it was Dou Wen, who was the most naughty and mischievous in Hongyan Hall back then.
"Grown up." Yan Ming patted Dou Wen.
Dou Wen knelt directly on the ground, didn't say a word, and kowtowed directly to Yan Ming.
Yan Ming wanted to help him up, but Dou Wen didn't do it, and only stood up after insisting on kowtowing. His height was already a little stronger than Yan Ming at this time.
The tendon meat under the regular clothes shows that this guy is building the road by himself.
"Over the years, you've suffered a lot, haven't you?" Yan Ming patted him on the shoulder, looking at the young man in his twenties in front of him, who was now bearded, looking older than himself.
"The teacher has taught and learned knowledge to benefit the people. The disciple did not dare to forget for a moment. Without practice, there is no voice. Over the years, the disciples have been on the front line. Dou Wen said.
"Okay, in a few years, you will be an expert in this area of our big man." Yan Ming said with relief.
The teacher laughed. Dou Wen shrugged the backpack on his shoulder and said with a smile: "I'm stupid too." I just ran over with the drawings on my back, but I forgot that the teacher still had to rest. ”
"What's the problem?" Although Yan Ming didn't know much about road construction, it didn't prevent him from taking a look.
The two of them were very anxious to find an official post station, and opened the drawings directly to read.
Han Yan saw their obsessed looks, said hello and went out for a walk.
He hasn't returned for a few years, and he also wants to see how Dahan has changed now.
Penglai Port, because of the construction of the port, has become an important area connecting the north and the south.
Yan Ming took the drawings at this time, pointed to the coastal zone above with Dou Wen, and said, "This area can be developed first. Once developed, the southeast coast will drive the economic development of the whole country. And in the northwest and southwest, it will take a few more wars to stabilize. Don't be in a hurry to build a road over there. ”
Dou Wen nodded and said: "The maritime transportation in the coastal zone is relatively developed. Do the roads still need to be repaired? ”
He nodded despite his doubts.
Yan Ming said: "Land, water and land are two different things. ”
Then, the two continued to plan for the construction of the road.
Although Yan Ming is not very professional, after all, he has a lot of insight and experience in later generations, and it is still possible to give Dou Wen a macro control.
Dou Wen's matter can be regarded as a coincidence.
Yan Ming and Han Yan stopped at Penglai Port for a day and then set off along the road.
Before leaving, Yan Ming told Dou Wen that other roads could be put back. However, Chang'an is the center and radiates out in all directions, and the route must be repaired first.
After all, Gyeonggi is a big place.
Dou Wen is not weak in this regard.
Literati either only know how to work, not politics. Either they only know how to play tricks and tricks, and they don't want to work.
Like Dou Wen, there are not many people who know how to work on the one hand and politics on the other.
Dou Wen has other things to do, and he needs to stay in Penglai Port for a few days.
Yan Ming and Han Yan were in a hurry to report on their work, so they had to take a few steps first.
Douwen's railway from Penglai Port to Chang'an has been built.
The road was very easy to walk, and the carriages were much faster.
Yan Ming looked at this road and studied it all the way.
Han Yan said: "Your van, it's best to run this road." ”
Yan Ming said: "I don't know how their machine tools are doing. If you can, it's not impossible to study a locomotive. ”
The two of them said, but Yan Ming thought in his heart that things like locomotives should be suspended. This should not be applied to the people first, but to the army first.
Most of the countries in the Western Regions are now dependent on the Han Dynasty. But further west, there are many more countries.
Now that Dahan is developing like this, it is almost inevitable to expand the factory in the future. If the locomotive can be applied to the army, it will bring unprecedented improvements to the Han army.
The road is easy to walk, and the road is fast.
Chang'an City has gradually appeared in the wilderness.
Today's Chang'an City is very different from before.
The original Chang'an City, seen from a distance, is the black city wall.
But today's Chang'an City, before it came to the front, began to gradually have residents.
On the outskirts of Chang'an City, a large number of traders and civilians gathered around Chang'an City, selling all kinds of utensils.
It is these vendors who make the periphery of Chang'an City appear more prosperous.
Today, the original city walls of Chang'an City have become the political and economic center. Today, most of the civilians have moved from the inner city to the outer city.
The prosperity and construction of the outer city are not much better than the original Chang'an City.
The buildings are all the handiwork of Lao Xu.
"Old Han, Chang'an City changes every year." Yan Ming sighed.
Han Yan looked at the prosperous and wealthy Chang'an City and said, "If it weren't for these many years of conquest, New Taipei City would not be much worse than Chang'an City. ”
Yan Ming looked at Han Yan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, New Taipei City will definitely be a new star in Northern Xinjiang." ”
Han Yan said: "With Yan Immortal here, you can't become a new star if you don't want to." ”
He paused, looked at Chang'an City, and said, "If it weren't for you, Chang'an City wouldn't have such a prosperous scene." ”
Yan Ming shook his hand and said, "All of this is the merit of His Majesty the Emperor, I don't dare to take it." ”
The corners of Han Yan's mouth pulled up a hint of a smile, she couldn't tell whether it was mockery or sneering, and said, "That's it, it's okay for you to deceive others." But you told me that you don't think of me as a brother anymore. ”
Yan Ming smiled helplessly.
Han Yan hugged the back of her head with both hands, leaned on the carriage, and said, "Don't talk about this." After this time, I will go back to New Taipei City. Look at those boys. ”
"I'll go back too. Let's experiment with trains. Yan Ming said.
