Yang Reform is thinking about it, is this paper money a positive result? It has always been the case that twice as many banknotes have been issued, but now, is it possible to send a little more? Recently, tens of millions of taels of silver have entered Beijing, and more than 1,000 carriages have pulled silver to show off, and it is to repair the gold mountain in the Liulizhai "Guang" field, in addition to these self-propaganda, such as Beijing officials, Beijing camps, and the salaries of the new army have almost been changed to paper money, if the relevant investment is also counted as paper money, this paper money has a considerable scale, this paper money, although it has not been officially declared legal tender, is also the default currency of the people.

For this reason, Yang Gaicao is also quite complacent, it is considered to have completed an unfinishable thing, and now, it is to continue to expand the use of paper money, and the capital has done it, then, it is other cities, other provinces, although there are still many officials who say this, saying that history repeats itself, so that Yang Reform cancels paper money.

Yang Gaicao listened to these discussions, as if he was farting, Yang Gaicao also came to an experience, paper money, or not to let civil officials participate in the matter for the time being, those people, only play lip service, a mess of paste in the brain, read and read to the brain rust, do not understand the matter of paper money at all, let alone how to operate paper money, Yang Gaicao firmly believes that paper money must be controlled in their own hands, and it is impossible to give up, give up the right to issue banknotes, no matter which regime in the future, will not do such a stupid thing.

The matter of the carriage yard and the steel-making yard has been settled, and it is basically finalized, and a total of millions of silver coins have been raised.

That is to say, "Nowadays, many big families in the south are running to the capital?" Yang Gaicao summoned Li Ruolian, the president of the bank, in the Qianqing Palace.

Recently, the fund-raising of the steel-making yard and the carriage yard has been quite smooth, and it is very easy to raise millions of silver coins to come out, "so that Yang Gaicao, who originally raised less than enough money, was a little surprised, and the original steel mill and carriage yard should have been officially launched, but unfortunately, the fund-raising factory because the amount of fund-raising could not satisfy Yang Gaicao, and Yang Gaicao has been dragging it out like this, because Yang Gaicao really doesn't want these two very important enterprises to raise funds so much in a hurry to finalize, and make a bad start for larger-scale fund-raising in the future" In Yang Gaicao's view, for a large coal company, it must raise at least more than 5 million silver coins to be qualified, otherwise, there is no "state-owned enterprise". It is not to say that state-owned enterprises are the norm, but in the future, heavy industries such as coal will basically have to build roads, just like railways, if they can't raise enough funds, even if they have the will, they are powerless, and there are many obstacles to promote industrialization.

Therefore, "for the two leading enterprises like the carriage yard and the steel yard, Yang Gaicao will not let him raise only four or five million silver coins to open in a hurry, so things have been dragging on there, not that the future of these two factories is not good" but that the north, especially in the capital, is really out of silver, and almost all of them are sucked up by Yang Gaicao, and if he wants to absorb gold again, he really can't absorb anything.

Yang Gaicao is unwilling to wait for things to turn around, "things are really turning around, recently, and it is very easy to raise as much as Yang Gaicao expected, so that the carriage yard and the steel yard can be officially baked, a question about the reason, but because many large households in the south, rich people ran to Beijing and participated in this investment, otherwise, the amount of funds raised will not meet Yang Gaicao's expectations.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, I heard that it is easy to make money in the capital, and many families in the south are not far away and send people to Beijing, so the business in the bank has been very good recently, and there are a lot of people who deposit and withdraw silver." Li Ruolian's face was full of spring breeze, and her face was full of smiles, "Oh, that's it!" Yang Gaicao knew the reason and nodded straightly, this game of chess in the whole country is to play a game for himself, and the rich people in the south are running to Beijing, which is enough to show that Beijing is attractive to them. It is good to have them participate, so that there are enough funds for the operation of capital, and there will gradually be more workshops in the future, which require more huge financial support, and the funds in their hands are still less, for the heavy industry and basic industry with millions of investments, Yang Gaicao has tens of millions of taels of silver in his hands, and he does not dare to be extravagant, and now he hears this news, undoubtedly, it is quite good news.

"Back to Your Majesty, it is all thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, and now, the capital has today's weather." ，,

Li Ruolian said again and again.

"Well, this is a good thing, in this way, if you release the news again, it will be said that I am going to set up another factory specializing in coal business, which may require two or three million capital, if you are interested, you can participate, it is still the old rule, I will not be verbose." Yang Gaicao saw that the form was gratifying, since there were so many people who came to the door to send money to themselves, why should he be humble? When taking the opportunity to become stronger and bigger, empty gloves and white wolves, these heavy industry bases will be propped up one by one. Nowadays, coal companies do not need to build railways, there are no large machinery, two or three million silver coins scale enterprises, is already quite large, Yang Gaicao set the price at this number, if this thing is done, basically, Tangshan's coal, steel complex industrial base, will take shape.

"Obey the order!" Li Ruolian got the emperor's words, and immediately replied happily, with the emperor's reputation, once the wind is released, everyone is eager to flock to it, no one will doubt the emperor's ability to make money, and those who doubt it are now regretting, and those who follow the emperor have made a fortune, otherwise the people in the south will not run to the capital with their eyes open, nor will they send silver worthlessly, looking for a way everywhere, there are many people in the capital who have a way to enter the capital, and people who have no silver have made a lot of money by taking the door for others, Li Ruoyou only listened to the emperor's words that were almost flickering. I was very happy. Now countless people who are seeking a way are holding the silver and have nowhere to go, just waiting for the emperor to speak.

Yang Gaicao talked to Li Ruolian again, and then let Li Ruolian go back, Yang Gaicao got the good news that the rich people in the south had entered Beijing, and felt that there were some things that could speed up the progress.

"Big friend, has Xiaoshunzi returned to Beijing? Find him, I have something to ask him, and in addition, I also call Fu Mingde, I have something to command......" Yang Gaicao commanded. Things have taken a turn for the better, then"

The matter of subsidizing the carriage" can officially begin, and the wind released before has been floating in the sky, "Now, it's time for him to land."

"Slave obeys!" Wang Chengen agreed. Wang Chengen soon went out to deliver the decree.

Yang Gaicao picked up the "homework book" again and began to correct the students' homework. Looking at the homework, Yang Gaicao's brows wrinkled for a while, and relaxed for a while......

After a while, Wang Chengen returned.

"Big Companion" I heard that there is a kind of well salt in Sichuan, which is pumped from hundreds of zhang underground, so do you have such a thing? Yang Gaicao didn't wait for Wang Chengen to stand firm, so he asked with a slap in his face.

"Sichuan ......? Well Salt \\1",...... Hundreds of ............" Wang Chengen is really inexplicable, he really doesn't understand this. He was a eunuch who served people, and how could he know such a distant thing.

"Yes, I've heard that there is a kind of well salt, which is beaten from hundreds of feet underground? Is there such a thing? Yang Gaicao asked with a frown.

"Back to Your Majesty, this slave really doesn't know, this, maybe you have to ask the internal officials and supervisors, the War Bureau, or the Ministry of Industry to know, maybe Liulizhai knows......" Wang Chengen replied, this matter, he is inexplicable, "However, since the emperor is talking about wells, he is talking about salt" Then, find an expert in this area.

"Well, you can send someone to these places to ask, and see if anyone knows what's going on?" Yang Gaicao instructed, it is not that Yang Gaicao wants to dig a few hundred meters of wells to dig salt, but that Yang Gaicao has taken a fancy to this drilling technology, hundreds of zhang! It is thousands of meters, if there is this technology in ancient times, the oil drilling technology, is really ready-made, the drilling technology is there, the refining technology is also so-so, the oil industry, when it can really be forcibly born, to build the road, the road of Sanhetu is useless, the cement is not reliable, then there is only the asphalt road, then it has to give birth to the oil industry.

It took a few million silver coins to build a forty-mile stone road, and there was so much silver that it was used to give birth to the oil industry, and the oil industry was really going to soar, and the oil industry was up, and the asphalt road came out.

"Slave obeys, let's go!" , Wang Chengen just came in, and went out to deliver the decree again.

Yang Gaicao looked at the letter from Shaanxi, and was in a daze, this letter from Shaanxi finally mentioned this matter.

Yang Gai grassland has always wanted to bring up this matter, but he was afraid that it would be too weird, so he kept it in his heart, waiting for this matter to ferment naturally, but fortunately things did not disappoint him, Li Yanyi of Shaanxi Province quickly mentioned that larger-scale oil production can no longer be completely leaning on the ground, "scooping", and needs to dig wells, and only slightly mentioned the problem of oil-related drilling. ,

In fact, the salt wells in Sichuan have existed in ancient times, and with the passage of time, the salt wells are getting deeper and deeper, even hundreds of zhang deep, that is, it is not uncommon for salt wells to be more than a dry meter, since the salt can be brought up from a thousand meters deep in ancient times, there is no reason why oil cannot be obtained, since the well can be drilled to a thousand meters, then this drilling technology is naturally also leveraged. Yang Gaicao has long watched a CCTV documentary, which mentions that the salt wells in Sichuan have a long history, and some salt wells are even drilled to a distance of hundreds of zhang underground, which makes Yang Gaicao amazed, and also allows Yang Gaicao to see the possibility of the oil industry, with oil refining technology and drilling technology, the threshold of the oil industry is basically gone, and the oil industry is worth large-scale investment, otherwise, it is really like investing heavily in the oil industry for no reason. It was really his head caught by the door, and after a while, Wang Chengen came back.

"Back to Your Majesty, the slave has already passed on the decree, I believe there will be news in a while."

Wang Chengen said that this matter can only be asked everywhere, and it is impossible to get an answer immediately.

"Well......", Yang Gaicao nodded.

“………… Uh, dare to ask Your Majesty, why is that? Wang Chengen saw that the emperor was looking at things in a daze, and driven by curiosity, he tried to ask.

"Oh, hehe, Li Yanyifu from Shaanxi mentioned that they were refining oil in Shaanxi, and they were "scooping" from the ground, scooping, not much, if they want to have more oil, they have to drill wells, maybe they have to dig very deep wells, I know, they are embarrassed to talk to me, since they mentioned this matter, then I have to help them solve it, so I asked my companion to ask ...... about Yanjing", Yang Gaicao said with a smile.

"Your Majesty Shengming\\1," Wang Chengen replied. Speaking of Li Yanyifu, Wang Chengen seemed to remember something again, and said: "The oil residue sent by Li Yanyifu has arrived.

The internal officials and eunuchs are paving the way, can Your Majesty go to see it? Wang Chengen saw that the emperor was kind to Li Yanyifu, so he said this matter by the way, "This matter, the emperor has already explained, it is a matter that can be said or not, since the emperor attaches so much importance to Li Yanyifu, then he might as well talk about it."

"Oh, here's the grease? How many? "When Yang Gaicao heard about it, he immediately became interested"

Asphalt road! It's finally time to meet again.

"Back to Your Majesty, there are twenty carts and 20,000 catties." Wang Chengen immediately replied that he had been paying attention to this matter, but he knew it very well.

"Twenty thousand catties?" , Yang Gaicao silently calculated, there are about twelve tons of asphalt, which is a lot, if it is mixed with stones, I am afraid that I can build a road of two or three miles.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, 20,000 catties!" Wang Chengen replied affirmatively.

"Good! Check it out! Yang Gaicao is interested in asphalt roads, this is a strange thing!

The emperor's team drove to the place where the road was repaired, this place, Yang Gaicao came several times, the first time was to see the road of the Sanhe soil, the second time to see the cement pool, by the way to see the crushed Sanhe dirt road.

In the face of the craftsmen who kowtowed to the ground, the eunuchs Yang Gaicao was exempted from the ceremony, and everyone got up.

Yang Gaicao was surprised to look at the scene of road construction, which can only be described as in full swing.

Dozens of large iron pots are lined up, next to them are piled with firewood and charcoal, each pot has several people waiting, in the pot, there has been a lot of oil residue, it looks black, the person in charge of the pot, is also full of black charcoal, smoked by the smoke.

Because Yang changed the grass to raise Q requirements, so, this roadbed, but built in advance, the stone is paved at the bottom, the top is a layer of Sanhe soil, the top, only ready to pave oil residue, this is the emperor explained, now, the road of Sanhe soil has been paved, just on the edge of the previous rotten Sanhe soil road.

Yang Gaicao found that although everyone was dark and not slippery, they were still orderly, and it seemed that someone was obviously commanding.

In the nineties, the country is still very poor, and there is no machinery to build roads, especially in the township, the scene of road repair, not much better than this, it is also to build a stove, use an iron drum filled with oil to burn asphalt, after burning asphalt, mix some stones, and then pave it on the roadbed, even if the asphalt road is built, and there will not be many people who generally build roads, there are a few, more than a dozen of them, every day to repair a twenty meters of the look, there is oil residue to continue to repair, no wait for a few days. ,

"Is there a steward here?" Yang Gaicao asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes!" , Wang Chengen replied immediately. After a while, he found a steward for Yang Gaicao.

"Slave and maidservant, official and young eunuch Zhang Chun knock to see Your Majesty!" , a well-dressed eunuch bowed.

"Oh, Zhang Chun? I ask you, has anyone taught you how to build a road? Yang Gaicao asked, looking at the posture of building a road, it is obviously not the first time to build a road, knowing that the pot burns asphalt, and there are dozens of mouths.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, there are craftsmen who are responsible for road construction with the car." Zhang Chun immediately agreed, the construction that the emperor valued, he personally came to supervise the construction, it can be regarded as diligent, and the road construction here was done according to the requirements of the craftsmen sent by Li Yanyi.

"Oh, call me and ask." Yang Gaicao was a little curious, although the asphalt road has no technical content, but looking at this scene, he must know something.

"Slave obeys!" , Zhang Chun agreed movingly, and then immediately went to find someone.

After a while, Zhang Chun received an old man who was full of jī.

"The grass people knock to your majesty!" , this old man can go to the palace, he has been accumulating virtue for eight lifetimes, and he can still see the emperor, this ancestral tomb must be smoking, trembling all over, not trembling.

"What's your name? Listen to Zhang Chun, do you know how to repair oil residue roads? Yang Gaicao asked with a smile.

"Back to the emperor, the grass people's surname is Zhang, everyone calls the grass people old Zhang Tou, and the grass people's real name is Zhang Dayue!

However, this name is used in a few ...... "This old Zhang Tou was so nervous that he couldn't do it, and he spoke tremblingly, and finally finished speaking."

"Oh, old Zhangtou? I ask you, do you know how to build roads? Yang Gaicao asked.

"Back to the emperor, the grass people know that the grass people built the road for the shopkeeper and used oil residue to build the road, which was tried by the grass people." Lao Zhangtou said that he was proud, and his voice immediately became much higher, and the person was much calmer.

"Who's the shopkeeper?" , Yang Gaicao didn't come back to his senses all of a sudden.

"Back to the emperor, the shopkeeper is the shopkeeper, and she is the ...... who refines oil for the emperor", Lao Zhangtou explained as much as he could.

"Oh, I see!" Lao Zhangtou reminded him slightly, and Yang Gaicao understood that this probably meant that Li Yanyi's daughter-in-law fù Ma Lan Huā, judging from the letter to himself, the oil industry base was taken care of by this Ma Lan Huā, and the little woman who dared to knock on the palace door in Yang Gaicao's impression was now vague and clear.

“………… Tell me how you paved this grease road. Yang Gaicao threw away some thoughts and asked.

"Back to the emperor, the grass people obey the order!" , Lao Zhangtou said excitedly, the shopkeeper did not lie to him, did not treat him badly, and did not be greedy for his merits, he can enter Beijing to build a road for the emperor, which is the recommendation of the shopkeeper, otherwise, how can he enter the palace? If you don't enter the palace, how can you see the emperor, since the emperor attaches so much importance to this road construction, then the day of his soaring prosperity is not far away, although the villagers have not seen the world, but they also know some good and bad, and vaguely know that they are going to develop.

“………… Back to the emperor, the grass people first use this cauldron to heat the oil residue, and then put in the prepared stones, this is self, the best is granite stones, the size is best about the same, to be heated, mixed, poured into this small car, and then transported to the road, paved, after paving......@.
