"Master Horse, you have gained a lot from conquering the two countries!" Kang Zeen introduced the topic. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"What, do you have a crush on someone? I'm the one who marked the price! Wei Xi responded.

Talking to smart people is a matter of convenience, and Kang Caien took out a list and said, "I want to redeem these people!" ”

The relationship between the Lites is inextricably linked, and many characters in the captured Shi Kingdom and He Country have become slaves, and the relatives and friends of the Lits who are outside pay to ransom them.

"Cheng, for your face, after the people on this list have been screened, I will release everything I can for you!" Wei Xi is very face-saving.

Later it turned out that Kang Caien carefully avoided the royal family, the big officials, the big generals, and the big merchants, and ransomed the less sensitive people, ninety percent of the people on the list were ransome, and they became free people again, and it cost millions of dollars.

After that, the ransom buyers of the conquered Zhaowu countries came one after another, and the money also rolled in, this business is good!

……

Wei Xi was busy almost from the New Year to after the Lantern Festival, and after the New Year's seal, he wrote a book "Please Open the Liangjing Railway", which immediately attracted the attention of the imperial court.

In the fold, Wei Xi requested the opening of a double-track railway between Chang'an and Luoyang!

It's a new thing, but everyone is not shocked, after all, this pony master has been tinkering with unique things from time to time.

The double-track railway runs steam locomotives at speeds of up to 30 miles per hour and can carry up to 800 people in ten carriages!

This new gadget appeared, the officials of the Tang Dynasty were ignorant, and the helpless Wei Xi could only briefly describe it: "The iron machine, powered by coal, can run on the iron track, day and night!" ”

Very good, Wu Zetian understood, and the officials understood. (I didn't say anything about the emperor, because this emperor's presence in the palace was far less than that of the minister, and he sat on the side and barely said a word now)

After understanding, the eyes of these guys lit up, and it was obvious that they all thought about the money on the railway!

The reaction was not slow, Wei Xi said calmly: "The important weapon of the country belongs to the empire!" ”

Wu Zetian smiled, and the others, their eyes were gloomy, like the three uglies of the martial arts, looking at Wei Xi with undisguised hatred!

M's, don't give good things to my brother, do you think you offend us less?

Wei Xi chuckled, fingered three ugly and said, "Queen Mother, look! ”

The three ugly immediately retracted their fierce gaze and pretended to be serious.

But it was too late, and many officials saw their appearance and forced themselves not to smile.

Wu Zetian also saw it, and he only sighed secretly in his heart!

Her three nephews, even if they are in high positions, can only cheer for her, and they can't do practical work. Wu Sansi once had high hopes for her, but she couldn't govern the army, there was no way to use the soldiers, and even the big seal of the Ministry of War was lost, and the Ministry of War had to change the seal. Wu Chenghe, who used to offer Ruixiang Baishi to get her favor, but unfortunately in the high position of the Ministry of Officials, he wantonly appointed private individuals, and it was nothing to use private, like Wei Xi also used his own private, but those private individuals were indeed able to do things, and many of the officials selected by Wu Chengsi were pig-headed and incapable, which led to Wu Chengsi being ridiculed as 'Ju Xuan Department (Ministry of Officials), both Quan Zong (appointed officials) without description, and was very scorned (laughs) at the time. ’

Wu Yizong is not much better, his people are fierce, but unfortunately it is not used for foreign races, but for internal fighting.

Because of his poor appearance, short body, and low self-esteem, he used tyrannical force to show his majesty, and the world did not accept it.

Wu Zetian is an understanding person!

If it weren't for the fact that they were her nephews, they couldn't be close to each other, and they had many choices, she would never use them!

Wei Xi ...... is too capable, powerful to the point of being frightened, if he is not the husband of Princess Taiping, with Princess Taiping in charge of him, Wu Zetian gave him a way out only to let him be the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and he must not be allowed to hold the military power for a long time!

Wu Zetian lowered his eyes, knowing the treacherous undercurrent in the court, and thought for a while: "According to what the concubine said, the prime minister Wei will wait for the price of the railway, and the local official (household department) Shangshu will allocate the corresponding money according to his request, start building the railway, and complete it on schedule!" ”

"Your Ministers obey!" Wei Zhiqi and Guo Zhiju, the head of the household department, immediately stood up and received the order.

Guo Zhiju is Wei Xi's comrade, Wu Zetian wants to change him, but he can't change it, this surnamed Guo is indeed capable, and his ability to manage money is very strong, although the court is very chaotic, but the income of the court is always abundant.

With him to help Uncle Wei and Wei Xi provide technology, the success of the railway is almost certain.

"Oh, the horse also promoted Ji Ji as the deputy prime minister, yes!" Wu Zetian said lightly.

All the eyes of everyone in surprise were fixed on Ji Ji, making him deeply feel the pressure of being focused.

Ji Xu, a native of Henan, Luozhou, is seven feet long, tall and burly, and has a very good background.

He is mean and outspoken, and he is a member of the cool official sequence, and now Wei Xi actually promotes him to practice, is it possible that he has some collusion with him? But I've never heard of it before.

Scrutinizing, unkind, suspicious eyes looked at him, making him sit on pins and needles.

After thinking for a moment, he stood up and said, "Command!" ”

……

Wei Xi said that he wanted to build a railway, such an unprecedented thing was surprising, and his promotion of auspiciousness made the officials talk a lot, everyone knew that Wei Xi and the cool officials were not on the same board, and they hated each other.

Not to mention that they were surprised, even Wei Zhiyuan found Wei Xi and said, "Why did you let a guy like Ji Ji be my deputy?" ”

"You'll find out soon!" Wei Xi didn't say it explicitly.

Indeed, Wei Zhi's price will soon be known!

The Chang'an----Luoyang railway is not actually the first railway in China, the first railway is a railway built by the Tang family in Liangzhou for transporting coal, which is thirteen kilometers long.

Then there is the railway built by Liu Xianli in the Western Regions, to the ----- Shanyan of Qiuci ----- the ---- of Xizhou, the ---- of the Bow City, which has taken shape, and is the first railway, and has accumulated a lot of experience, so that he dares to build a railway in such a sensitive area as Chang'an --- Luoyang.

There is no shortage of railroad tracks, and the enterprises of the Tang family and Princess Taiping in Liangzhou can produce them; There is no shortage of money, and there are brothers in the household department to watch it; There is no shortage of manpower, and the power of the state is not a problem to mobilize the people.

Where's the trouble?

Land acquisition, land acquisition!

The world doesn't understand, don't accept it or a trivial matter, the key is that they think that the railway is repaired, the place is bulldozed all the way, and the roar of the machine is hindering feng shui and disrespecting the ancestors!

The land between Chang'an --- Luoyang is a first-class good place, and there is no shortage of wealthy families occupying it.

Well, that's where Jizo comes in handy.

To build roads or not to give land?

Don't give!

"Yes, you want to rebel!" Gizo said.

"Inexplicably, not giving land is a rebellion?" The landlord retorted unconvinced.

"The railway was built by order of the Queen Mother, and if you don't build it, it's not a rebellion or something!" Ji Zuo is strong and wants to argue with him?

Okay, please go to prison and try what is called "Routine Gate"!
