Chapter 353: Rapid Development
Chen Yu didn't care at all about whether the candidate went to the capital to sue him, first of all, the Great Xia Emperor knew that he had seven innate level subordinates, and he would not easily do anything to him, and secondly, the government exam was originally written by the prefect.
Even though the questions in the Northwest Prefecture Examination look a little unconventional, what can it be? Since there is no explicit rule on what questions must be asked, why can't he ask them? Even if the imperial history is impeached, what does it matter?
Those who can become emperors are either extremely intelligent, or cruel, or have a lot of talents.
Knowing that he has seven innate level subordinates, and still can't get along with him, his behavior is tantamount to looking for death, which emperor is so stupid?
The seven peerless masters of the innate level, who can attack and retreat, can go, and the heavily guarded Great Xia Palace cannot stop the seven innate powerhouses.
What's more, with his strength, he can destroy the entire world in a single thought, and he doesn't care about the emperor, let alone being impeached by the imperial history.
The nine candidates returned home excitedly, and after a little tidying up, they took the travel expenses sent by the local magistrate, took their servants, and went to the capital in high spirits to participate in the palace examination invigilated by the emperor himself.
More than 700 talents rushed to the capital excitedly, preparing to jointly sue the prefect of the Northwest Prefecture.
Under Ma Li's guidance, Zhao Zhiyuan asked people to plant sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes.
Ma Wencai sits in the government office and handles official documents sent from all over the country.
Chen Yu sometimes opened a court to try cases, sometimes refined some machinery and equipment, and sometimes went to Yunwu Mountain to plant some flowers and trees.
Hydropower stations, steel plants, cement plants, brick and tile factories, sand factories...... After the stone factory was completed, more than 10,000 young and strong people were recruited, and under the leadership of 100 private soldiers, they built a road from each factory to Yunwu Mountain and Fucheng.
"The sedan chair carried by eight people, the carriage made of wooden wheels, is very bumpy, so let people buy some natural rubber first."
Seeing that there were many rubber trees in Nanfu of the Great Xia Empire, Chen Yu was overjoyed, and after thinking about it, he immediately asked fifty private soldiers to bring silver tickets and go to Nanfu to purchase rubber.
He couldn't help but laugh when he remembered when he was younger, when he was making slingshots on Earth.
Once upon a time, he heard others say that rubber is divided into raw rubber and cooked rubber, and in order to turn raw rubber into mature rubber, he also put the rubber in a pot and boiled it.
As he grew older, he gradually learned that the inner tube of the bicycle that was easy to break was not raw rubber, but aged cooked rubber. Put the raw rubber in the pot and boil, no matter how long it is cooked, it will become immature rubber, and the real cooked rubber is made by heating and vulcanizing.
Over time, he realized a truth, no matter whether he is smart or not, he should read more.
It's one thing to understand or not, and it's another thing to do it or not.
No matter how much you understand the truth, if you don't do any of them, there is no meaning.
The first time you hear about a typhoon, many people think that it is blowing from the side of Taiwan Island, after all, the southeast wind blows from the southeast, the northwest wind blows from the northwest, and the sea breeze blows from the sea......
Some people think that the loach cat is a cat that eats fish and loaches, but it is not, the loach cat is a weasel badger and has nothing to do with cats.
In Chen Yu's opinion, it doesn't matter if you are stupid, read more books, and others will think that you are erudite and talented.
It's not terrible to be ugly, the most terrible thing is that people who look ugly have no culture, no money, and no power.
An ugly person, once he becomes a writer, a big official or a wealthy businessman, others will think that he looks very distinctive, and Mr. Feng Shui will definitely be able to say that the other party is a fairy god, and each shortcoming will become an undesirable advantage......
The large stones produced by the stone factory were spread on the ground by the people one by one and extended into the distance.
Horse-drawn wagons brought cement and sand, mixed it with small pebbles to form concrete, and spread it on top of large pebbles.
The concrete floor, which is up to 40 centimeters thick, continues to pave towards Yunwu Mountain at a speed of several hundred meters a day.
More than 100 young and strong people, holding all kinds of tools, built steps on the Cloud Mountain.
"Master Hou, the spring ploughing is over, most of the people are idle at home, do you want to recruit more?" Zhao Zhiyuan asked.
"Recruit another 50,000 young people." Chen Yu said after thinking about it.
The next day, more than 60,000 people were in full swing to build roads outside the city.
Soap and perfume earn more than 50,000 taels of silver a day, and the raw materials of each factory are all made of local materials, except for labor costs, there is no cost, and the daily wages and food expenses add up, which is only a few thousand taels of silver.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is more than two months.
"Master, the rubber has been bought." Zhang Ruyu said.
"Okay, I see." Chen Yu nodded and let Maria take charge of producing tires.
He had already refined the machinery and equipment of the tire factory, and in less than three days, the tires of the carriage were made.
Horse-drawn carriages loaded with bearings, tires, and springs have soared several times in terms of carrying capacity, and the speed of road construction has skyrocketed.
After the roads leading from the factories to Yunwu Mountain and Fucheng were repaired, it took tens of thousands of people only a few days to repair the walls of the fiefdoms, and then those tens of thousands of people under the command of 200 private soldiers built roads from Fucheng to the prefectures.
The whole family of five farmed for a year, paid all kinds of taxes, deducted daily needs, and the remaining silver was less than two taels.
A young man gave a month to the Northwest Hou, including food and shelter and a salary of two taels of silver, because if he could become a worker in the Northwest Hou, no people would be willing to farm.
Three hundred private soldiers with architectural knowledge, armed with various construction tools, built pavilions and pavilions on Yunwu Mountain.
"It looks picturesque, but it's still a lot worse than a holy place on earth."
Looking at the gradually forming Cloud Villa, Chen Yu turned around and returned to the mansion.
"Master Hou, someone from the palace has come to say that Your Majesty will come to us in three days." Ma Wencai said.
In just a few months, the Northwest Mansion has undergone earth-shaking changes, and Zhou Ming, the Great Xia Emperor who learned of the situation, decided to come to the Northwest Mansion to have a look.
"Come on, what's all the fuss?" Chen Yu said disappreciatively.
"Master Hou, do you want to prepare?" Ma Wencai asked.
"Welcome in the middle of the road or out of the city?" Chen Yu asked rhetorically.
"Don't you prepare anything?" Ma Wencai asked again.
"Prepare your majesty's food and lodging, and leave the rest alone." Chen Yu said.
"Yes, Master Hou." Ma Wencai nodded in response.
At this moment, Zhao Zhiyuan walked in.
"How?" Chen Yu asked.
"Harvest, great harvest......" Zhao Zhiyuan said with a smile.
"The corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes that I harvested last year are almost ready to be cultivated." Chen Yu said.
"The lower officials have let the people turn over the ground, and it is expected that in more than ten days, the second round of planting will be possible." Zhao Zhiyuan said.
"The whole province will promote the planting of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn, and strive to make the people of the entire northwest province no longer have to worry about food and clothing within next year, and they will benefit the local people for the sake of officials." Chen Yu said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Master Hou." Zhao Zhiyuan nodded enthusiastically.
"By the way, recruit another 5,000 people, plant a poplar tree every three zhang on both sides of the highway, and plant some osmanthus, gardenias, roses and the like between the two poplar trees." Chen Yu said.
"Master Hou, in this way, the cost will definitely not be small." Zhao Zhiyuan said.
"Don't care about money, soap, perfume, steel, bricks, cement, glass can be profitable." Chen Yu said that the purpose of renovating the Northwest Mansion is to let his family travel, and if he doesn't make it better, how can he be embarrassed?
He is immortal, the most important thing he lacks is time, if he can't get it in a year, he will use ten years, and if he can't do it in ten years, he will always do it in a hundred years, right? Even if it takes 10,000 years to do this, as long as he can make his family smile, he will not hesitate to do it.
If it weren't for the fact that the Time Changing Divine Stone was too boring, with his current strength, he would be able to transform the Northwest Mansion in an instant.
