Nanjing finally came, it was the team led by engineer Ruan An, what Hu Ye didn't expect was that the famous Ruan An was actually a eunuch. I guess I didn't have any energy to spend on this thing, so I specialized in architecture.

In order to support his son's water conservancy, Zhu Yuanzhang also allocated 100,000 taels of silver from the already insufficient treasury. He didn't expect that his son had already made a million taels in Beijing.

As soon as you have more money, your horizons will be broadened. In the past, Zhu Di saw 10,000 taels of silver, and he had to look at it carefully for a long time. But now he was not surprised to see the 100,000 miles of silver sent by his father. However, Zhu Di doesn't think there is a lot of money, and 100,000 taels is also money, so let's keep it for now. Maybe it will become a military expense for the rebellion.

It is estimated that Zhu Yuanzhang knew about it and decided to vomit back three bowls of blood. But he will never know in his life, because by the time Zhu Di rebelled, he was already squatting in the imperial mausoleum in Nanjing.

These are not the holy decrees that surprised Hu Ye the most, the most incredible for Hu Ye Ruan An, this is simply the most easy-to-understand holy decree in Chinese history.

"Son, well done, this group of Northern Yuan Tartars should be beaten up. This time you are going to build two dams, and I should have fully supported you, but the treasury does not have much money, so I can only allocate 100,000 taels to you. You will use it, but if it doesn't work, you will borrow some from your brothers. As for the matter of letting the sons and grandsons of businessmen take the imperial examination, we should not make a big fuss, and we can give ten places this year to see how it works. ”

This is a passage that popped out of Ruan An's mouth, and there were some sharp voices, which made Hu Ye think that this eunuch was crazy, and he dared to call Zhu Di his son.

As a result, Zhu Di came to thank the lord Longen, which completely made Hu Ye messy, it turned out that Ruan An was reciting a holy decree.

This suddenly reminded Hu Ye of a joke about Zhu Yuanzhang. That is to say, during the Hongwu period, there was a disturbance in Fujian, and Zhu Yuanzhang issued an order to the officials of Fujian to prepare for the defense of the people of Fujian, and the holy decree was written like this.

"Tell the people that they are coming, do not be afraid, take up the sword, and kill it."

Hu Ye felt that how could these words pop out of the emperor's mouth, even if Zhu Yuanzhang said it, it should be embellished, at least add "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said" in front of it.

But Hu Ye believes it now, and the holy decree that Zhu Yuanzhang gave to Zhu Di is exactly the same as the joke Hu Ye heard, which is directly written in the vernacular. There is no beginning of "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict", not even Qin, it is completely a letter from home.

If it weren't for the words "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity" printed on it, Hu Ye would have felt that it was a holy decree forged by Ruan An.

"His Royal Highness King Yan, I heard that you are going to build two dams on the Wuding River and the Chaobai River?" After Zhu Di received the holy decree, Ruan An asked curiously.

"Yes, a few years ago, the Wuding River was diverted and caused flooding, but building a dam can prevent this from happening again." Zhu Di put away the holy decree and said casually.

"There are really benefits to building two dams, and when there is a flood, it can alleviate the water situation. In times of drought, drought can be alleviated. However, the construction of the dam is huge, and tens of thousands of laborers are needed, and four or five hundred thousand dollars of silver are needed. This time, Bixia only allocated 100,000 taels, which is far from enough, how can His Highness get the rest of the hundreds of thousands of taels? ”

Ruan An asked very seriously, in his opinion, the treasury could only come up with 100,000 taels. Zhu Di definitely can't take out much of a vassal king, and Zhu Di still fights year after year, and the consumption is definitely more than that of ordinary vassal kings, and it is impossible to come up with hundreds of thousands of taels.

"You don't have to worry about money, I've prepared a million taels of silver, which is more than enough to build two dams. I also want to build a few more deep wells for the people, and now the people's draft is a problem. As for labor, you don't have to worry about it, there are now 100,000 laborers in Beiping, just waiting for you to start work. Zhu Di smiled mysteriously, and then said.

"What, Your Highness has prepared a million taels of silver, and there are 100,000 laborers?"

Ruan An was a little surprised, he knew what the concept of one million taels was, and he had been paying taxes to the treasury for a few months, but he didn't expect Zhu Di to take it out.

"Haha, don't be surprised, I have been preparing for a long time to build these two dams." Zhu Di said loudly, and then said, "When Gonggong Ruan first came to Beiping, he first rested in the house for a day, and then went up to the river tomorrow to check." When you choose a good place, you can start work. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern, but this matter is urgent, our family will not rest, so we will go to the river to choose a site, build it as soon as possible, and benefit the people as soon as possible." Ruan An is worthy of being the imperial engineer of the palace, and he has never seen anything in the world, so he was only a little surprised that Zhu Di was able to come up with so much silver and labor, and then regained his calm.

"Since Gonggong Ruan has this intention, Zhu Neng, you can follow Gonggong Ruan, and after choosing the address, you will order someone to build a camp there. And Hu Ye, you also take a trip, you have a lot of ideas, maybe you can help. Zhu Di gave an order.

Zhu Neng was very happy, he went back to his hometown a few days ago to save his relatives, and he didn't catch up with Zhang Yujinzhong and them to count the money, which made him very depressed. Now that I have an opportunity, I can take my father-in-law from Nanjing to visit Beiping, of course, I am very happy.

But Hu Ye is not happy, he has been busy with money and food in the past few days, and he hasn't slept after a good night's sleep, and now he still has back pain. originally thought that after finishing these things, he could sleep to his heart's content, but who knew that Zhu Di pulled himself out again.

Hu Ye didn't want to go, but after looking at Zhu Di's eyes, he knew that the resistance was ineffective, so he had to go with Zhu Neng.

Ruan An was very strange, why was there such a little doll in King Yan's mansion, and it didn't seem to have a low status. He thought it was one of Zhu Di's sons just now, but now it seems that it is not like that.

Therefore, when Hu Ye stood up, he looked at Hu Ye twice more and became interested in this little hairy child.

But just look at it, but the eyes are a little weird, which really scared Hu Ye into a cold sweat, and thought that this eunuch had some other thoughts about himself, but he heard that many eunuchs have that kind of fetish.

Although Ruan An looked at Hu Ye a little strangely, his vision was good, and after walking around the Wuding River, he immediately chose the address of the Guanting Dam, which was actually the same as the address of the Guanting Reservoir in later generations.

"Well, the water here is fast, and the sides are not flat, so why did Weishenme build the dam here? Wouldn't it be better to build where the water is flat? Although he went back to his hometown, Zhu Neng still likes to ask questions, as long as he doesn't understand, he has to ask.

Hu Ye believes that with Zhu Neng's second goods, in the 21st century, he will only have the life of moving bricks, and he will not be able to do anything else, and he will definitely be fooled to death. It is only in the era of the early Ming Dynasty that there are wars for many years, and there is a place for him.

"Master Zhu, where the water flow is gentle, most of them are plains, and if you build a dam in that place, although it is easy to build, it is very costly. The amount of water that can be stored is not large, and the role it plays is much smaller. Ruan An patiently explained to Zhu Neng.

In his opinion, those who love to learn are good comrades, and if Zhu Neng can ask if he doesn't understand, he should try his best to explain it to Zhu Neng.

But he overestimated Zhu Neng's IQ too much, and Zhu Neng didn't understand a word of what he said. Weishenme's role in building the dam here is mostly the same? Weishenme: If you build a dam here, the storage capacity will be large?

Zhu Neng's two questions made Ruan An, the big eunuch, speechless.

"Brother Zhu, think about it, if the Northern Yuan army attacks, it will pass through a grassland, and it will also have to pass through a canyon. If you were to fight an ambush, would you be in the prairie or in the canyon? "Hu Ye came out to relieve the siege.

For Zhu Neng's second goods, other explanations are pale and weak. But as soon as it is linked to the military, this goods will immediately understand. He can't do anything else, but he's a good hand at fighting.

Sure enough, Zhu Neng suddenly realized, and said in a loud voice, "I see, I see." ”

Let's talk about it, I didn't forget to pat Hu Ye on the shoulder twice, so Hu Ye's shoulder pad had another victim.

Ruan An was very appreciative of Hu Ye's words, and looked at Hu Ye with appreciative eyes again, feeling that Hu Ye was a teachable son.

But Hu Ye glanced at Ruan An, and only felt that he was cold and thin under his pants. Could it be that this product has taken a fancy to himself and wants to castrate himself and arrest him back to Nanjing as an apprentice!

Thinking of this, Hu Ye broke out in a cold sweat, this Ming Dynasty, really everyone has it!
