When he returned to the room, he immediately sent a decree to tell the government not to touch them, taking this opportunity, Chen Chen also wanted to see which of these rich businessmen agreed to Chen Guo's request, and then took the opportunity to get rid of them, and naturally he couldn't stay for half-hearted people.

While eating and looking at the map of Dongshui, Chen Chen sighed in his heart, now that there is the Dongshui Peninsula and the Shengzhou area, it can be regarded as a step from the coast to the inland.

Dongshui terrain is a typical hilly area, Shengzhou is high in the north and low in the south, and both places are tropical rainforest climate, this precipitation is really too frequent, as long as a precipitation, then the road surface will become mud, it seems that road repair work is essential, after all, to get rich must first build roads!

Since the cement plant has been built, the cement road must be built to repair the road, so that the road surface is smooth, which greatly reduces the hardship of labor, and makes it more convenient for major businesses to enter the operation.

After eating, he immediately summoned Li Chuanwen from the Ministry of Industry and Sun Sheng, who was in charge of the factory.

"Master Sun, how is cement production lately? There is no expansion of production. Chen Chen beckoned the two to sit down, looked up and asked Lord Sun Sheng.

Sun Sheng hurriedly got up: "Back to the prince, according to your orders and instructions, a lot of cement has been produced, and after the construction of Shengzhou is completed this time, a lot of cement has been piled up, and the minister is trying to ask the prince for instructions on how to use these cements." ”

Chen Chen nodded: "Lord Sun has worked hard, Lord Li, now you need the Ministry of Industry to take action, let people measure the road surface of the country, plan the route according to the unified size, and then build the official road, this time the king plans to pave the road with cement, I hope the Ministry of Industry will bother more this time." ”

Li Chuanwen nodded hurriedly: "Lord Wang, our road ministers have been paying attention, and now that Shengzhou is also under construction, it is time to repair the road. ”

"Master Li really has a heart." Chen Chen praised it, he didn't expect this Li Chuanwen to be so discerning.

took the silk cloth map and looked at it carefully: "Lord Li's route is the shortest and the most cost-effective, but now we are also rich in Dongshui, so we don't need to save money. The roads in large villages can be wider, and the roads in small villages can be narrower, so that it is easier for people to enter the city. "To build roads, we must maximize the connection to market resources, rather than giving up some places to save money.

Master Li kept them all in mind.

"Well, then build the road as soon as possible, this matter can't be delayed, the factory should produce cement and stone in large quantities, and Master Li should make the route as soon as possible." Chen Chen ordered at the two.

The two nodded and quickly went down to prepare.

Just when Chen Chen led the people of Dongshui to work hard, Chen Guo was full of contradictions at the moment.

"Hurry, hurry." Chen Zhuo sat on the dragon chariot and kept urging everyone to move forward, and the person carrying the dragon chariot hurriedly jumped and rushed to the queen mother's bedroom.

"Queen Mother, it's not good, it's not good......." Chen Zhuo quickly rushed into the queen mother's bedroom before he could speak, but he saw his queen mother and a famous lady at this moment, and they didn't know the night.

Chen Zhuo was stunned, standing at the door stupidly, the man seemed to have entered a state of selflessness at the moment, and continued to roar and exercise hard, and the Queen Mother was also gasping for breath.

After a long time, Cheng Zhuo came back from the shock and shouted: "Come on, pull this adulterer out and kill him, from today on, the queen mother will not be allowed to leave the palace." ”

"Zhuo'er." When the Queen Mother saw the emperor standing by the bed at the moment, she exclaimed in fright, pushed the man on her body down, and pulled the quilt over to cover her body.

Chen Zhuo stabbed his sword into the man's throat, and then quickly left the dormitory with a cold snort.

The Queen Mother saw that her son was leaving, and knew that he would not come back if he was going, so she hurriedly shouted: "Is it Tianzhou's business?" Nanzhao attacked? ”

The emperor's footsteps stopped stiffly: "The queen mother takes care of herself, I left first." ”

Without waiting for the emperor to leave, the Empress Dowager hurriedly said: "Immediately cede the land and ask Xichu to send troops, and at the same time cede the land to Dongshui in exchange for Chen Chen's support." ”

"Chen Chen is my subordinate prince, why should he give him land." The emperor said angrily, turning his head and staring at the Queen Mother angrily.

The Queen Mother smiled and comforted: "Chen Chen has not paid much tribute since he went to Dongshui, you have also seen, Dongshui is almost an independent country, and its wealth is almost rich, think about it, if it were not for his secret support this time, we would not have been able to fight Nanzhao for so long." ”

"If there is no matter of Nanzhao, we will naturally go all out to encircle and suppress it, but now we must let him contribute, otherwise our position will be difficult to protect, give him Luoshui in the east, let him have financial support immediately, and let his grandson come back, even if he has wisdom, but he can't fight Chen Chen at all."

The emperor was taken aback: "Queen Mother, do you mean that this time with Nanzhao, will it be Chen Chen's ghost, it is said that the army fell from the sky, and only Chen Chen can figure it out." ”

The Queen Mother smiled bitterly: "We were blinded by lard at the beginning, what's the use of talking about this now?" We are already mired in war. ”

"Damn, hateful, hateful, I didn't expect Chen Chen to persuade the four major merchants in the imperial capital to Dongshui." The emperor's nose was crooked.

In the past, Chen and other countries were heavy on agriculture and suppressed business, but when Dongshui quickly became rich with the power of merchants, all countries saw the power of merchants, and when they changed their strategies, the merchants had already gone to Dongshui, and all countries sent spies into Dongshui in the hope that the merchants would return, but they were all rejected.

"Queen Mother, if it is said that it is to continue to fight with Nanzhao, it is better to let all countries focus their attention on Dongshui's head, I believe that with Dongshui's strong financial resources, it is enough to make other countries covetous." Chen Zhuo lowered his head and thought about it, and suddenly turned around and said impulsively.

The Queen Mother's eyes lit up: "That's fine, since Dongshui uses Chen Guo as a shield, then it's time to change it, but we have to suffer, forget it, as long as we keep the glory and wealth of our mother and son, we will immediately pay compensation to Nanzhao, and then find Xichu, Xiqi, Nanzhao, and the four of us to jointly exterminate Dongshui." ”

Chen Zhuo nodded: "I will deal with it, and at the same time I will inform the emperors of other countries." ”

Chen Zhuo left quickly, the Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, ordered someone to drag the body out, killed the guards guarding the door, and then changed a batch, and found a new celebrity to continue to enjoy the happiness of the world.

Chen Guo acted quickly and sent an envoy to Nanzhao to sue for peace, and at the same time said that he would cede land and pay compensation, which Emperor Nanzhao naturally accepted.

Three days later, Nanzhao regained Tianzhou, and at the same time gained four states in the south of Chen, and for a time Nanzhao's territory expanded by nearly one-fifth, and Chen lost a quarter of its territory.

The news quickly spread to Dongshui, at this moment Chen Chen was leading the army and civilians to build roads, and he was also shocked when he suddenly got the news, and hurriedly sent someone to greet Chen Cheng and Commander Wei to discuss, and at the same time sent someone to Lushui Island as soon as possible to quickly recall Yang Cheng.

For a while, the atmosphere of the whole Dongshui became different.
