Chapter 354: Holy Land on Earth
"Chen Feng, the prefect of Weichen Northwest Prefecture, has seen Your Majesty!" Chen Yu clenched his fists and arched his hand.
Now that he is an official in the Great Xia Empire, he should take people to greet the Great Xia Emperor outside the city gate.
"No need to be polite." Zhou Ming said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, please!" Chen Yu said.
"The road surface is as smooth as a mirror, isn't it the cement road?" Zhou Ming asked curiously.
"Yes." Chen Yu nodded.
"How?" Zhou Ming asked.
"First level the ground, then mix cement, gravel, and yellow sand into concrete and lay it on the ground." Chen Yu said.
Zhou Ming used his internal force and stomped on the ground, only to see that the ground was intact, and he asked suspiciously, "Why is it so hard?" ”
"Your Majesty, the hardness of cement is not weaker than that of hard stone." Chen Yu said.
"Chen Aiqing, I heard that your carriage here is very stable, I want to feel it for myself." Zhou Ming said.
"Arrange some carriages." Chen Yu said.
"Yes!" Ma Wencai nodded in response and asked someone to find a few carriages.
Sitting in the carriage, he only felt that it was flat and steady, and the speed was not much slower than that of riding a horse and whipping, Zhou Ming was amazed in his heart.
And when they had gone round about the city, they came to the palace.
"Chen Aiqing, I heard that sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes can be planted twice a year, but is there such a thing?" Zhou Ming asked with a smile.
"It's true, sweet potato, potato, and corn have two varieties, one for spring planting and one for summer planting." Chen Yu said seriously. With his current ability, he can easily make food crops that can be grown in all seasons.
"I want to plant sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn in the territory of the Great Xia Empire." Zhou Ming said.
"Your Majesty, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn cannot replace rice and wheat after all, and they can be used to satisfy hunger, and it is inevitable that they will be boring to eat for a long time, especially sweet potatoes and potatoes, which will ...... if you eat too much," Chen Yu said.
"I see." Zhou Ming said suddenly.
"Your Majesty, lunch is ready." Zhao Zhiyuan walked over and said.
"Three Aiqing, stay and have a few drinks with me." Zhou Ming said.
"Wechen obeys." Chen Yu, Zhao Zhiyuan, and Ma Wencai responded in unison.
After the meal, Zhou Ming asked, "Chen Aiqing, I heard that your fiefdom is almost built, can you take me to take a look." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Yu nodded in response.
The group took a carriage, and in less than half an hour, they came to the foot of Yunwu Mountain.
"Chen Aiqing, why don't you build a road that leads directly to the top of the mountain?" Zhou Ming asked.
"Your Majesty, the road leading directly to the top of the mountain is time-consuming, laborious and costly, and it will also destroy the scenery of Yunwu Mountain." Chen Yu said.
"According to me, the cost of the highway from the capital city of the northwest to the states is not cheap." Zhou Ming said.
"Take it from the people, use it for the people." Chen Yuyun said lightly.
"Well said." Zhou Ming couldn't help but praise.
"More than ninety percent of the people in the world want to get gold and silver, Hou Ye makes a lot of money, and the speed of using money is also extraordinary." Xu Fu said with admiration.
"Gold and silver are just two metals, gold and silver tickets are made of paper, whether it is gold and silver, or gold and silver tickets, they have no meaning in themselves, if they can buy things, they will be worthless."
"How much money can a person use, how much money can a family use, Weichen has no other skills, there are many ways to make money, however, no matter how much money you make, if you don't use it, there is no point in except taking up space." Chen Yu said slowly.
Looking at the scattered exotic flowers and plants, Zhou Ming praised with a smile: "Yunwu Mountain is picturesque and can be called a holy place in the world. ”
"Weichen likes flowers and trees, so he planted a lot of them on the mountain." Chen Yu said casually.
"Does Chen Aiqing have a marriage match?" Zhou Ming asked suddenly.
"In addition to benefiting the people, Weichen just wants to climb to the top of martial arts." Chen Yu said like a mirror, he knew very well in his heart that if he said that he was not married, there would be no accident, and then he would be a colt.
Concerned about the invincible beautiful girl of youth, the future wife has not yet been won, as a dedicated man, no matter how beautiful the rest of the women are, he is indifferent, rich and systematic, why worry about his wife is not beautiful enough?
Hearing this, Zhou Ming was stunned, he wanted to marry the third princess to the other party, but he knew that the other party only had martial arts in his heart, out of curiosity, he asked again: "Chen Aiqing, what kind of realm is the top martial arts in your heart?" ”
"An innate martial artist can live to be one hundred and fifty years old, and Wei Chen guesses that his cultivation is more than congenital, and his life span will increase, and if he practices martial arts to a certain level, he may be able to live forever." Chen Yu said.
"Last year, the Hu people invaded south, Chen Aiqing led 300 soldiers and killed tens of thousands of Hu people and retreated, so it seems that Chen Aiqing's strength must be very strong, right?" Zhou Ming asked with a smile.
"The sea is boundless, and the mountain is the peak!" Chen Yuyun said lightly.
"Chen Aiqing, can you let me see your martial arts?" Zhou Ming asked expectantly.
Chen Yu nodded, grabbed his right hand in the air, dozens of fallen leaves flew upside down, and with a twist of his wrist, the leaves rushed to the sky.
The leaves were like flying knives, rushing into the sky like a shadow.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of birds fell from the sky and fell around everyone.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Hong, the commander of the Wolf Guard, was horrified in his heart, and killed the birds in the air at a height of thousands of meters with leaves, and killed more than fifty at a time, such a powerful strength had already exceeded his imagination.
The innate true qi of the innate martial artist, although he can slash enemies within a few zhang in the air, he has never heard of anyone who can kill birds hundreds of zhang away with leaves, not to mention killing dozens of flying birds at a time.
The rest of the people were also shocked, such strength was obviously far beyond the early stage of the innate stage.
How did everyone know that Chen Yu only used a meager strength to kill a bird at a height of thousands of meters with leaves.
The group walked along the clean and smooth steps towards the mountain.
"Chen Aiqing, can you eat all these fruits?"
"It's all edible."
"Xu Fu, go pick a few for me."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
It took more than an hour to stop and go before everyone came to the top of the mountain.
"Chen Aiqing, how are these houses built?" Zhou Ming asked.
"The walls are reinforced concrete, the floor is tiled, and the windows are glass......," Chen said.
"Chen Aiqing, I also want to put the palace on the floor tiles and install transparent glass." Zhou Ming said expectantly.
"If Your Majesty likes it, Weichen will provide the floor tiles and glass needed for the palace." Chen Yu said.
"Ordinary craftsmen don't know how to install floor tiles and glass, right?" Zhou Ming hesitated.
"It's simple, Your Majesty can send craftsmen to learn." Chen Yu said.
"Chen Aiqing, your Cloud Villa is a little more elegant than my palace." Zhou Ming praised.
"Your Majesty laughed, the world is so big, what can compare to the palace?" Chen Yu asked rhetorically.
"Let's go down, I'll take a look at Aiqing's factories." Zhou Ming said.
The crowd descended the steps, rode in dozens of carriages, and galloped along the wide and smooth road.
"Your Majesty, this is the Glassworks."
"I didn't think the glass was made of sand."
"Your Majesty, this is a steel mill, and the steel that has been smelted has been used by Weichen to build houses and roads."
"It's okay to build a house, don't Chen Aiqing feel wasteful to use these high-quality steel to build roads?"
"Add some steel in it, and the road can be used for dozens or hundreds of years."
"Can cement last for tens or hundreds of years?"
"It shouldn't be a problem."
"If the walls were to be built of reinforced concrete, wouldn't they be impregnable?"
"As long as the country is strong, it can shock the nations, even if there is no city wall, who dares to attack?"
"What Chen Aiqing said is extremely true."
