Chapter 253: Determination
Sikong, also known as Da Sikong, is one of the three princes of the imperial court and is a position of great power.
The current Sikong is in charge of water and soil engineering affairs, such as road repair, city repair, ditch digging, and dam building, anyway, the position of water and soil engineering can be mixed with a foot all over the world, a bit like the union of the modern transportation department and the water conservancy department, and in addition to this responsibility, in fact, Sikong also has other responsibilities, that is, to preside over the funeral of the royal family, of course, this latter one can be ignored.
Sikong is one of the three princes of the imperial court, it can be said that he is powerful, Lin Bei threw out this position, Huang Chengyan is not moved, and he can also see that this dragon god knows his own Yueying quite well.
Huang Yueying is good at the study of organs, and at the same time he is also involved in astronomy and geography, and he is indeed a person who makes the best use of his talents, if Lin Bei throws out a Taiwei or Situ, then Huang Chengyan will not dare to accept it.
Even so, Huang Chengyan still has a dreamy feeling, he originally just came to inspect Lin Bei and Wanghai City, but he didn't expect to encounter a big surprise here, Lin Bei and Wanghai are full of potential, and his daughter has ascended to a high position, Huang Chengyan suddenly thought of that An Zhong Zhi'an Pavilion Chief, Huang Chengyan was still thinking about this person making steady progress, how do you know that it is Huang Yueying's turn now.
Seeing that Huang Chengyan agreed, Lin Bei was very happy, and finally abducted Huang Yueying, he directly promised to take the position of commonplace, in addition to Huang Yueying's ability, there is also a reason that the Huang family does not have a man, so even if Huang Yueying is in a high position, it is very difficult to benefit the Huang family, after all, this era is still a patriarchal society, and besides Lin Bei, can there be other people in power who dare to be so bold? How could the Huang family not be dead set on him and Wanghai City?
"Gong Chengyan, if possible, Lord Ben hopes that you can do your best to let Yueying come to Wanghai City. This lord wants to borrow the talents of Yueying. ”
"The adults will call the old man Cheng Yan, and the old man is a little ashamed to be called the old man." Huang Chengyan began to correct his title, and began to let the dragon god call him Chengyan Gong, and now that he is ready to attach himself to this dragon god, Huang Chengyan can't make mistakes, and he enters the role quickly.
Cheng Yan Lin Bei was a little embarrassed, his age was not as old as this. It was awkward to call this kind of name, Lin Bei thought for a while and said, "If that's the case, then let's call Huang Gong." ”
Huang Chengyan could accept this title, so it was confirmed, Huang Chengyan asked, "What do you need Yueying to do?" ”
Lin Bei pointed to the forest and said, "Huang Gong should know that my Wanghai City is now at war with the natives, and has also defeated the two natives tribes. ”
Huang Chengyan nodded, and said in his heart that he had also captured the natives as slaves.
"I took a fancy to the river in the forest, and this river is called the Mekong. It can go up to the Central Plains, and the road to the west can go to the poisonous country, which is very important to the development of Wanghai City, so it must be taken down, but the road in the forest is very difficult, if you want to attack, the matter of building the road is imminent, if Yueying comes. I'll leave the road building to her, and I'll conquer one tribe at a time. I will build a city by the river, and I also need Yueying to make overall arrangements, and now I want to see the sea city withered, and only Yueying can do this. ”
When Huang Chengyan heard this, he felt so comfortable in his heart, his daughter was arranged by Lord Longshen to take such a heavy task before she came. It can be seen that Lord Longshen really attaches great importance to Huang Yueying, so why hesitate?
"My lord, after the old man returned to the city, he immediately repaired a letter and asked Yueying to come, but what about the marriage between Yueying and Yuanzhi?"
"How old is Yueying now?" Lin Bei asked.
"Exactly twenty-eight."
Twenty-eight? Only sixteen? That's just right. It will take a few years to get married, Lin Bei unceremoniously gave Xu Shu an idea: "Yueying is still young at this time, so let Yuanzhi and Yueying get engaged first, and it is not too late to get married in a few years, let Yueying come to Wanghai first." ”
"No." Huang Chengyan nodded in agreement.
"Yueying can come, and I will add another good talent to the sea, which is really gratifying, Huang Gong, you have a good daughter."
Praising Huang Yue made Huang Chengyan happy more than praising him, and Huang Chengyan smiled from ear to ear: "The adult has won the award, and the old man is ashamed." ”
"Huang Gong deserves it, by the way, has Yueying already made that wooden ox flowing horse at this time?" Lin Bei asked suddenly.
Huang Chengyan was happy, but he didn't notice the meaning of Lin Bei's words, and thought that Lin Beitong's letter from Guò Xu Shu knew about the wooden ox and the horse, so he nodded and said: "Exactly, the old man was still clever before, but compared to the steam cars and tank chariots made by adults, the wooden ox and horses are far inferior, and the adults are really talented." ”
Lin Bei's heart was suddenly relieved, this Huang Yueying was indeed not unexpected, it was really extraordinary, so one thing can be certain, the wooden ox and flowing horse made by Zhuge Liang in the previous life came from Huang Yueying, and Huang Yueying is really talented.
As for Huang Yueying, who is only sixteen years old, Lin Bei is actually not worried, the women of the family are very early adults, and sixteen years old is still a child in modern times, and she can be regarded as an adult here, and her thoughts and values are mature.
While the two were talking, the natives began to pour the mixed cement into the formwork again, and Huang Chengyan was not polite, jokingly saying, "My lord, you can sue the old man now."
What a miracle this cement is, right? ”
Lin Bei smiled, "This cement is actually extremely simple. Then he briefly described the effect of the cement: "It is very practical to use it to build roads. ”
Huang Chengyan took a breath when he heard it, this cement is really simple, this effect is too rebellious, with cement, the efficiency of building the road is dozens of times higher than before, and the road is not easy to damage, Huang Chengyan said cautiously at the moment: "My lord, this thing must not be known to outsiders." ”
Lin Bei was amused in his heart, this celebrity entered the role so quickly, and now he no longer treats himself as an outsider, Lin Bei is very satisfied with this attitude, but he still smiled and said: "It's okay, and don't hide it from Huang Gong, I am going to sell the production method of this thing to Zhen's firm, and they will sell it to Haoxiong from all over the Central Plains." ”
"My lord, why is that?" Huang Chengyan was shocked, "It's okay to sell the bicycle, but this cement is really a divine object, and when the time comes, the Central Plains will build a cement city wall, and it will be difficult for me to break it." ”
"Who said I was going to wield the Central Plains?" Lin Bei asked rhetorically.
"Ah" Huang Chengyan was stunned, this Dragon God Lord didn't attack the Central Plains? Don't want to get that seat? So what is he doing now? Is it a house? Huang Chengyan was dizzy, in this way, what was the use of the Huang family following this Dragon God Lord?
Lin Bei smiled again: "It's not that he doesn't wave the Central Plains. It's just that it's not time yet, and in the land of the Central Plains, Lord Ben still looks down on it. ”
A tiny area? Huang Chengyan was speechless, if the Central Plains is also considered a land of projectiles, then what about the rest of the barbarian countries? Huang Chengyan was a little unable to understand this strange thought.
"Huang Gong don't be surprised, all you see is the Central Plains. And what I see is the whole earth, can Huang Gong know what the earth is? "Lin Bei is ready to give this a popular science.
Huang Chengyan shook his head, of course he didn't know.
Lin Bei rolled a branch on the side with his tail, found a vacant space, and first drew a rooster on the ground, he didn't know if the territory of the Han Dynasty was like this, but even if it wasn't, it would be reconciled, and the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty were marked: "Huang Gong, this is the territory of the Han Dynasty." ”
Huang Chengyan nodded. This kind of map is simple and straightforward, and he can naturally understand it.
Lin Bei pointed to the edge of Nanyue: "This is Wanghai City, which is in the extreme south of the Han Domain. Subsequently, Lin Bei drew a piece of the sea, "This is the sea area, Huang Gong knows what country is on the other side of the sea area?" ”
Huang Chengyan shook his head honestly, he didn't know if he didn't know.
"Put this aside for now." Lin Bei smiled and drew a map of Asia again. The drawing must be a little inaccurate, but it is probably about the same: "This is the Huns." This is body poison, this is Qiuzi, Loulan, and Byzantium. ”
"My lord is talking about the Silk Road," Huang Chengyan said, he knew.
"Yes." Lin Bei circled the map, enclosing both the Han Dynasty and Byzantium, and then enclosing the area. Finally, he said: "This is collectively referred to as Asia and Europe. ”
Huang Chengyan hadn't heard of this kind of classification, but his receptivity was okay, and he nodded to indicate that he understood.
"And there are seven continents on the whole planet." Lin Bei drew several more maps, regardless of whether he drew them correctly or not, and said to Huang Chengyan: "This is Africa." This is North America, this is South America, this is Oceania, this is Antarctica, this fifth continent is bigger than Asia and Europe, you know what I mean? ”
Huang Chengyan glared.
"This is the seven continents, some of the seven continents are connected, and some are separated by the vast sea, which is what I call the earth, Huang Gong, look at these seven continents, and then look at the territory of the Han Dynasty, is it a land of projectiles?"
Lin Bei deliberately painted other continents bigger and Asia the smallest, so Huang Chengyan could only nod when he saw it: "My lord, according to this map, the territory of the Han Dynasty is really not big." ”
It's good to admit it, Lin Bei just wants Huang Chengyan to admit it: "That's right, you said that if I knock down all these places, will it be better than the original in the wave?" ”
Huang Chengyan looked at Lin Bei, and finally knew how Xu Shu's pattern came about, it turned out that the source was here, and it was the idea that this Dragon God Lord instilled in him.
If this qiē is true, then these places must be dozens or hundreds of times larger than only the territory of the Central Plains, no wonder this Dragon God looks down on the Central Plains, Huang Chengyan has to admit that he is a little infected by Lin Bei's pride and ambition.
"But this territory is so vast, I'm afraid it will take several years just to walk through it" Huang Chengyan said this, thinking of the steam carriage, and said in his heart that this dragon god had already planned, so he created such a strange thing that can run quickly, with the steam car, it can greatly shorten the time, it seems that this dragon god has really made up his mind.
Lin Bei said with a smile: "Looking at it now, it will take several years to walk through these areas, but Lord Ben knows a kind of divine artifact, and it only takes a day or two to go back and forth, so does Huang Gong still think that this territory is vast?" ”
Huang Chengyan took a deep breath, if there was no experience of the steam car, Huang Chengyan would definitely not believe it, but now, Huang Chengyan really believes it, this Dragon God said that there is, then there really is.
"These vast areas are still undeveloped now, mostly indigenous and local barbarians, I will conquer them one by one, and then these lands will be owned by my Wanghai City, and they are all my Yanhuang people, isn't it extremely fast? Huang Gong, are you willing to work with Master Ben to create such a prosperous era? Lin Bei looked at Huang Chengyan with a blazing gaze.
What does it mean to be ambitious? Huang Chengyan can be regarded as seeing, looking at the map, and then looking at Lin Bei, Huang Chengyan's expression was agitated, knelt down towards Lin Bei, and looked at him respectfully: "My lord's ambition, Huang Chengyan has no reason to obey, since I should attach the tail of the adult, I will do my best to help the adult succeed in this matter, and create a prosperous era of my Wanghai City!"
