Chen Xun hadn't retired yet, and Hang Min was summoned first.

Just right.

Zhu Jianji summoned Hang Minxuan to the Wenhua Hall and asked the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households to discuss the recruitment of Minfu to expand the scale of the Jingguang Road construction project in Annan.

It's actually a matter of money.

The household department is now rich, and the other six departments have something to ask, and the household department can meet it, and the tide is rising, and now the status of the household department Shangshu Chen Xun seems to have surpassed the ministry to become the head of Jiuqing.

Hearing Zhu Jianji say that a large number of Jiaozhi people would be recruited, Hang Min was still a little worried.

The main reason is that it is afraid that it will not be managed well and breed riots.

Zhu Jianji waved his sleeves, "I will order the local capital to send troops to ensure the normal operation of the Jingguang Road project." ”

The terrain of Jingguang Road is complex.

Dig mountains, build bridges, and even dig tunnels.

A lot of people will definitely die.

The people of Jiaozhi have earned a certain amount of money by then, enough to make a living, and in the face of the threat of death, it is estimated that resentment will slowly breed, and there is a high possibility of riots.

Then it is necessary to let the nearest local capital guard send troops to maintain the normal operation of the project and deter the troubled people.

After getting Zhu Jianji's assurance, Hang Min immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said: "You can follow the Heiguang Road, multiple sections of construction can be closed in both directions, and the people you need can reach a million at most, the most important thing is to see the needs of Your Majesty, if you catch up with the construction period, you can even start construction at the same time with more than one million people, but Rao is so, it will take three or five years, after all, this road is too long, and the terrain is extremely complicated." ”

Zhu Jianji hummed and looked at Chen Xun.

Chen Xun thought for a while, "The money is enough!" ”

Anyway, it's not a one-time allocation, it's a sectional allocation, and the money in the household department is enough, so it's really embarrassing, so it's a big deal to get more treasure money.

This cost is low.

In fact, the speed at which Daming prints treasure money has been very fast, because the demand is very large.

Of course, it's not an indiscriminate issuance of treasure money.

The treasure banknotes issued are all reserved in a corresponding proportion.

I'm still afraid that something unexpected will happen.

In case of a collapse of the banknote's credit, no one can bear the consequences, so the banknote can be printed, but within a limit, it is necessary to ensure the value of the banknote and maintain the credit of the banknote.

Hang Min heard Chen Xun's assurance, and immediately said: "After the Chinese New Year, Weichen will start arranging. ”

Zhu Jianji said with a smile: "In addition, there is another matter, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household have a psychological preparation, this matter is still about the official road, the official road of the Ming Dynasty is not only to build a Heiguang Road, there will be several, if the overall plan is ...... I call it four vertical and four horizontal. ”

Hang Min and Chen Xun glanced at each other.

All have headaches.

A Heiguang Road has cost a lot of money, plus seven such official roads, although Daming is rich now, but it can't withstand such a toss, how much does it cost to build these eight official roads?

And how much manpower, how much steel and cement.

I'm afraid I don't think about it for decades.

Zhu Jianji also knew that this project was too big, and New China only started this project after entering the 21st century, but New China's four vertical and four horizontal railways are high-speed rail expressways.

There is no high-speed rail in Daming, at least the ordinary official roads and railways must be built into four vertical and four horizontal spider webs.

So no matter how much it costs, you have to get it.

Don't say much else, professional things to professionals, to Hang Min said: "You tell the people of the Road Traffic Department of the Ministry of Industry, let them according to the national topographic map, comprehensively consider the next military operations of the Ming Dynasty, and then according to the development of maritime trade, the development of people's livelihood, plan out the four vertical and four horizontal road map, a requirement: these four vertical and four horizontal repairs, and then repair the official roads connected with each other, after success, the official roads of the Ming Dynasty should include every state capital, even including Mobei, Hami, Wusizang and other regions. ”

Mongolia, Xinjiang, Tibet......

It is indeed difficult to cultivate official Taoism in these two places.

But Lao Tzu did it first!

Let these three places be firmly in the hands of the Ming Dynasty forever, lest there will always be people talking about them in the future.

Hang Min sighed in his heart, "Weichen obeys." ”

He has a hunch that he will have to fight for these eight official roads all his life, but he is a little excited, if he really repairs these eight official roads, then his name Hang Min may really be as His Majesty said, the weight in the history of the Ming Dynasty is not inferior to Yu Qian, the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty!

Another scholar, Chen Xun, was complicated in his heart.

He had only one thought: how much would it cost!

Da Ming has only become rich, His Majesty is so tossed, and there will be more things to toss in the future, and his future work as a household secretary is only afraid that it will not be easier than Hang Min.

But like Hang Min, Chen Xun is also painful and happy.

After all, they are scholars who can see that the Ming Dynasty is so powerful that it is far away from the Han and Tang Dynasties, which is the long-cherished wish of this life, and it does not disappoint their ten years of hard work.

Zhu Jianji said: "In this matter, the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry will discuss it more, and it will be okay to retire." ”

Chen Xun retired.

Hang Min still had something to do, and said: "Your Majesty, regarding the matter of laying wires in the whole city of Gyeonggi, Your Majesty has entrusted the Ministry of Industry to be responsible, but isn't this a matter of the Daming Royal Power Company?" ”

This is yesterday's decree.

Zhu Jianji snorted, "It is indeed a matter of the Royal Power Company, but the Royal Power Company is a private royal property belonging to me, and it is also a commercial house, which is to make a profit, and it is impossible to lay power lines for the whole city of Gyeonggi for free. ”

Hang Min shook his head, "This matter has involved the Ministry of Industry, and it is even more unclear." ”

Zhu Jianji suddenly came over.

Said: "The holy decree has been issued, what can I do about it?" ”

Hang Min said: "Then Your Majesty, how do you see this, let the Ministry of Industry be responsible for this matter, but contract this line project to the Royal Power Company, during which the Ministry of Industry will supervise the progress and consumption of funds, and strive to be transparent and open, and the Royal Power Company will participate in the project, but it will not make a profit." ”

Zhu Jianji sighed, "Bidding!" ”

Feasible.

Hang Min, "Bidding? ”

Hearing this term for the first time.

Zhu Jianji said: "According to your proposal, the Ministry of Industry will plan this project and bid for external bidding, but there are commercial banks that can lay power lines in the whole city of Gyeonggi, and they can compete." ”

It seems that there is no competition at present, because only Daming Royal Power Company has this ability.

After all, there are too many projects that the Ministry of Industry will be responsible for in the future, and the Ministry of Industry cannot personally grasp everything, especially the short-distance official roads that are linked to each other between the four verticals and four horizontals, which can be tendered and handed over to private private firms. ”

In other words, the formula of cement will also have to be promoted to the people.

It is necessary to actively develop the upgrading of the civil construction industry.

Hang Min was confused.

He still couldn't understand it, after all, there were no private firms that could undertake the projects of the Ministry of Industry.

Zhu Jianji waved his sleeves, "This matter is so decided, about the follow-up operation, the time is right, you will naturally know, and now it is better to catch the city that never sleeps project in Gyeonggi!" ”

The Guanting Reservoir is already under construction.

In two years at the latest, Daming's first hydroelectric power station will be born.

At that time, Daming Gyeonggi will be the world's first city that never sleeps.

Now it is necessary to hurry up and lay power lines throughout Gyeonggi - this is actually a face-saving project.
