Chapter 453: Chen Qinghe

"What else?"

When Chu Hui heard this, he said, "Oh, that's the case, in addition to their group of craftsmen arriving, those who repair the river are also here." ”

"What?"

Chen Baichuan couldn't wait to slap it Chu Hui's head, and he asked, "It's a big deal to get through the Yuan Chunjiang River, and you didn't even talk about it until now." You kid, let me meet the craftsman who repaired the tombstone first. ”

Chu Hui touched his nose and said timidly: "After all, the matter of building a tombstone for the old general is more important. ”

Chen Baichuan knew in his heart that this guy was favoritism for him, although he didn't like this, he couldn't say anything. He could only say weakly: "Okay, you call in those people who are repairing the river in your mouth." ”

Chu Hui said that the status of the river cultivator was higher than that of the craftsmen just now. More critical things, opening up the Yuanchun River is a big project, and Chen Baichuan can only pay lip service to command, he can't decide how to construct it at all.

"The ministers meet the general."

The group of people, old and young, knelt down in front of Chen Baichuan.

The leader was a gray-haired old man, and Chen Baichuan knew about his existence. The construction of many rivers in Chen Guozhong is inseparable from the guidance of this old man. Speaking of this old minister, he can be described as a national treasure.

Chen Baichuan is like a dragon who only likes to collect treasures, and in the face of such a talented old man, he has already merged the old man's entire department into the bureau. In this way, the old man is now Chen Baichuan's subordinate.

Chen Baichuan picked up the old man and said, "Old Yuan, you don't need to be polite to these vulgar courtesies. ”

Yuan Lao smiled faintly and said: "The general is joking, after all, the subordinate is a person who depends on the general's snort, and there must be etiquette." ”

Chen Baichuan will only be respectful to two kinds of people in the Chen Guo court. One is a person with status, and now the only people in the Chen Dynasty who can meet the standards are Jiang Changyin and Chen Wang. The second is people like Yuan Lao.

For generations, they have worked hard for the water conservancy of the Chen country, and they have worked hard. Yuan Lao was already old enough to enjoy his family, but when he heard Chen Baichuan's invitation, he still rushed over wearing stars and moons.

Just because, this matter is beneficial to the country and the people.

Chen Baichuan has never advertised himself as a noble person, but when he really meets a noble person, he doesn't want to be stingy with his respect.

Chen Baichuan said politely: "Yuan is honestly polite." By the way, the kid merged you directly into the game without consent, can you get used to it? ”

Yuan Lao glanced at a few young people behind him and said, "It turns out that I am still very resistant in my heart, after all, everyone originally said that the bureau is made of gunpowder. But fortunately, Lao Yu entered it and was able to recognize this group of energetic students. Otherwise, the old decay may have no successor for all his skills. ”

"This is the luck of the bureau, and I can recruit a person like Yuan Lao who is really talented and learned."

Chen Baichuan said one after another:

"Okay, Old Yuan, have you heard of the kid's original idea? How, is there any possibility of implementation. ”

When Yuan Lao heard this, his eyes were filled with golden light.

He seemed to be many years younger, and said passionately: "The great general is really a genius who can come up with such an unheard of idea. In fact, at first, Xia Guan thought it was impossible. However, after carefully looking at the map of the water flow mountains of Chen Guo and Qing Guo, I found that there was really a possibility of implementation. ”

Chen Baichuan interjected: "Since there is a possibility of implementation, Yuan Lao might as well consider using gunpowder." Gunpowder can only kill people on the battlefield, but it can also dig mountains and rivers. ”

Yuan Lao nodded, and he said, "Originally, I was also prejudiced against gunpowder in my heart. But after listening to my apprentice say yesterday that gunpowder can blow up mountains and rivers, my opinion changed. With such a sharp weapon as gunpowder, I am very sure of it this time. Also, in addition to gunpowder, I also went to various departments in the bureau, and sure enough, I found many things that were conducive to the opening of the river. ”

"Yuan Lao just call it as much as he wants." Chen Baichuan said with a smile.

"This time it's for the sake of the people, of course the lower officials won't be polite to the general, and in a few days, those items should be sent to Qingguo."

Chen Baichuan glanced at the sky outside, found that it was close to noon, and said, "I don't know what else is inconvenient about Yuan Lao, please tell me in detail." In this case, I will write you a warrant, and the resources in the capital will be at your disposal for the time being. ”

Yuan Lao nodded and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the general, but at the moment I only need one person, and that is the official who originally managed water conservancy in Qingguo." With his help, the time consumed by this project will inevitably be greatly reduced. ”

Chen Baichuan naturally would not refuse, he said: "This is a trivial matter, I believe that person will not refuse Yuan Lao." In this way, if Yuan Lao thinks that the other party is a manufacturable material, help me include him in the game. ”

Yuan Lao laughed, and then resigned and left.

After Chen Baichuan waited for him to leave, he wrote down the three words Chen Qinghe on the paper and pen on the table in the living room.

This river is about to carry the cultural materials of Chen Qing and Qing to exchange with each other. One day, the two places will merge into one.

Chen Baichuan still has one thing to complete at the moment, that is, he needs to announce to the original Qingguo people that their Qingguo no longer exists. Instead, there were thirty-six new provinces belonging to the state of Chen.

The names of these thirty-six new provinces, Chen Baichuan had already prepared them in advance.

Even the notices to be put out have to be transcribed first. As long as Chen Baichuan gives an order, he can announce the news and let the people and magnates of Qingguo know about this matter of great significance.

Chen Baichuan made a decision immediately, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the notice was posted.

It didn't take long for the people to be crowded under the notice, and even the illiterate people rushed forward. With curiosity and doubt, they finally heard the contents of the notice in the angry tone of the readers.

For most people, it seems that life has not changed except that Gyeongdu has been named Gyeongdu Province since then.

For many readers, this is simply to cut off their last trace of fantasy about Qingguo. Many people knelt directly on the ground and muttered, "Qingguo is gone, Qingguo is no more." ”

Qingguo used to be a proud country, so his people also had a certain recognition of this country.

Chen Baichuan listened to his subordinates' report on the situation outside, and did not say anything except for sighing.

As for the magnates in Qingdu, they were not much shocked by the news, but they were relieved in their hearts.

They had long expected that they would come back on this day, and all they could do was accept it calmly.
