Chapter 274: The stingy Yingzheng
"This." Li Zhao was embarrassed.
Ying Zheng's gaze suddenly became sharp, "What? Don't want to? Do you want to resist the decree? ”
directly threw out the best fatal threat.
Li Zhao smiled bitterly, Qin Shi Huang was determined to eat him, but he had to follow his will, but he couldn't accept it in terms of funds, this is a national economy and people's livelihood project, and it should be borne by the country, unless it is profitable.
"No, no, the minister doesn't dare, it's just . It is difficult to accomplish it alone. ”
He originally wanted to say that it was difficult to raise funds, but he didn't dare to say anything more halfway through the words, and immediately changed the topic, because to talk about it was to bargain, and Qin Shi Huang was resolute and never liked to be pushed away.
The words were said like this, but the complaining voice soon came out:
[Emperor, Emperor, you are embarrassing me, just a machine will cost me a lot of money, and then the train, this will not make me bankrupt, but you, it is not a meaning, let me say that I need money? How embarrassing it is. 】
Well! Ying Zheng heard it immediately, raised his eyebrows, and secretly said that this kid was really wrong, but he didn't want to mention the matter of funds.
Since the ban on the suppression of business, the world has a large number of commercial banks, commerce once flourished, and taxes brought a lot of income to the government, but he opened Chrysostom at that time, and did not collect taxes from Chang'an Township for three years, for which he regretted it for a long time, but he could not break his promise to take back his life.
It must be known that during this period of time, he saw the commercial development of Chang'an Township, and he definitely made a lot of money, and it was rumored that Li Zhaozu could become the richest man in Xianyang.
He is a rich man.
Since you can't take it back, you can get it from other sources, and it's clear that building a train is a good way to get it.
Of course, it is impossible for him to mean it.
Moreover, just to build a train, how much money can be used? It costs a few gold to build a carriage, and a train should be equivalent to dozens of carriages! The top and bottom are not more than 100 gold, and it is definitely not a burden for Li Zhao, who is so rich.
Thinking like this, Li Zhao's heart rose again:
[Building a train is not only to build a steam engine, but also to lay rails, and iron needs steel, the smelting of steel is a technical work, and it requires skilled craftsmen, which requires a lot of money, and the carriage also costs a lot, anyway, it is a bottomless pit. 】
Bottomless pit? Rail? Steel?
What's that?
Ying Zheng can't figure it out at all, but the carriage understands, and the carriage will cost a lot? It's obviously a lie, the servant has a report from time to time, and the carriage and horses in the palace are geometric? How much to spend? He still knows something in his heart, and Li Zhao's carriage is nothing more than made of wood, which can be worth a few dollars.
Horse-drawn carriages are expensive, but they are expensive on horses, but carts are cheap, so how can they cost money?
It was clear that he still wanted to shirk it, and he couldn't imagine that Li Zhao's words in his heart would be lying, so he couldn't help but shake his head, but the next moment Li Zhao's heart rose again:
[The carriage also has to be made of steel, at least dozens of tons for a carriage, no, hundreds of stones, dozens of carriages for a train, so how much steel does it take! 】
[And iron is not steel, hundreds of stone iron can't produce much steel, such a huge amount of iron, my iron ore is not enough at all, must be purchased, the capital is immeasurable! ] 】
What! Listening to this, Ying Zheng was startled.
Isn't it made of steel for the carriages, not wood? What is steel? It sounds as if steel is obtained from iron, but is this also the way that is realized in the steam ball?
Hundreds of stone steel for a carriage, this is too extravagant, if this is the case, it really requires a huge amount of money.
He thought that the steam engine would be more expensive to make trains, but he didn't expect that there would be so many ways.
Of course, just listen to it, he won't say a word, these are all up to Li Zhao's headache! Who called him so rich.
As for him alone? There are indeed some shortcomings.
"I won't let you do it alone, and in the future, Mu Rong and the others will be at your disposal."
