Liu Weiqian and the eunuch who delivered the decree got on the boat to talk about things, and they were busy demolishing the house elsewhere, and there was no place.

"Here, long live the Lord gave it to you, you can see it yourself." The eunuch handed over the letter written by Zhu Yuanzhang to Liu Weiqian.

Liu Weiqian looked at the lacquer seal, checked it, and then baked it and opened it, the words inside were very simple, ask him if he needed anything, and the court could help.

Now there are twenty steam-engine ships, which can quickly travel on the Yangtze River, and the 100,000-strong army has returned to Yingtianfu, plus the prisoners, there are enough men.

If there is a shortage of grain, we will give grain, and the winter wheat will be harvested soon, and we have accumulated some last year, which is enough to deal with it.

Liu Weiqian's eyes turned red when he looked at it, and tears fell, Your Majesty is asking people to give people, food to food, and money to money.

The letter was followed by a statement that regardless of whether there was a flood or not, the time would come to build more rooms for the people.

It is convenient for people to have a house to have a baby, and if they have a baby, they will have a population, and they will be more at ease if they have many houses.

"Yun Neishi, is it easy to walk on the road?" After reading the letter, Liu Weiqian found that the pressure was even greater, His Majesty gave everything, and then something went wrong......

The eunuch's name is Yunqi, the internal history of Xihuamen, according to historical records, Zhu Yuanzhang went to Hu Weiyong's mansion, he knew in advance that Hu Weiyong rebelled, so he went to stop Zhu Yuanzhang, he was speechless in a hurry, he was beaten to death, and before he died, he pointed to the location of Hu Weiyong's mansion to tell Zhu Yuanzhang to be careful.

Zhu Yuanzhang sent him this time, he was clever and had people under him.

"Other boats are not easy to go, the water is big in spring, the Yangtze River is upstream, it is quite difficult, and the key point must be dominated by slender men.

Our ships are paddle wheelers with steam engines, which are not afraid of turbulent currents and can fly up.

This time, there were six ships, another nine on the way, and five more in Yingtianfu, a total of twenty ships, which could carry a lot of supplies. ”

Yun Qi briefly talked about the waterway situation of the Yangtze River, and straightened his chest, indicating that the boat was good.

The ship was loaded with a lot of stuff, and when the soup and came back, a ship was loaded with a lot of coal and water and other parts.

If you don't need a wheel or chain rail, from Yingtianfu to here, 4,000 miles, all are waterways, and you can reach it in six days.

It's fast to go back, downstream, and ten days of a round trip is enough.

If Liu Weiqian is in need, the fleet can make ten round-trips to Yingtianfu before the arrival of the big water.

The key is not necessarily to take things from Yingtianfu, some food is temporarily transferred from other places, and it is no problem to replenish it from other places later.

Moreover, the imperial court is working hard to build a new steam engine, and a batch will soon come out, maybe a month later, hundreds of steam engine paddle wheels will run on the Yangtze River.

"I want a boat to transport vegetables from other places to the people who have migrated away, and they can only go up the mountains, and it is difficult to grow vegetables on the mountains, and there is enough food to eat, at least until the normal rice harvest here is a month before the harvest."

Liu Weiqian thought of the daily life of the people, planting rice and harvesting it in late autumn, and the month before that was a green and yellow crop.

Now the food in the hands of the people is enough to last for a while, and after that, it will naturally be food.

It is most convenient for the imperial court to transfer the land that should be handed over to the people in other unaffected areas of Sichuan to the people in the affected areas.

"So I'll leave you five ships, you write a question book, and I'll take it back to Lord Banzai."

Yun Qi felt that it was reasonable, so he made the decision to keep the boat, and at the same time left the people who could operate the boat to cooperate.

Coal was available locally, and there was no need to get it from elsewhere, so there was no shortage of fuel for steam engines.

Liu Weiqian started writing on the spot, and the others withdrew, and after a while he finished writing, put on the lacquer seal, and handed it to Yun Qi.

Yun Qi only followed a boat to turn around, and did not stop, and quickly disappeared from Liu Weiqian's field of vision by the current of the Yangtze River.

"Tell the people that Your Majesty will solve all the remaining problems, and look at this ship, the reverse current is also fast."

Liu Weiqian took the opportunity to let the steam engine ship perform for the strange people who ran to the river to see how the reverse current went up.

'Oh~~! ''Wow~~! ''Ah~~! ''Ha~~! ’

The people watched the steam engine paddle steamer freely shuttling on the river, going as they wanted, and let out all kinds of exclamations.

……

"Grazing~~" The rain stopped, the snow melted, the sun was drying for two more days, the temperature rose rapidly, and the livestock couldn't help it and wanted to eat grass.

The herders set up their tents, brought a lot of salt, and went to graze.

The army also divided horses, cattle, sheep and camels into groups, and some followed the herdsmen to find good places and write them down.

Some of the laborers ate nearby to help transport supplies, and the steam engine could no longer be used to pull carts.

The craftsmen and other soldiers continued to build the fort, and the salt drying area here pumped water to dissolve the rock salt, and followed the steps.

"There are two more days of Lixia, and it's so boring here, counting the days, and there's nothing."

Zhu Fan stood by the river, looking at the muddy river rolling away, homesick.

There are a lot of things going on at home, and I don't know what happened to Jubiqi and the beer workshop.

There are also department stores, and I can't see the accounts, and my heart is itching.

Zhu Biao was in a similar mood to his younger brother: "After the beginning of summer, let's go southeast, go around, and go back from Beiping." ”

"The matter here has been arranged, and the 20,000 soldiers and 2,000 craftsmen we brought will continue to guard it.

Let's build the fort while walking, and the main place of delay is in Datong Mansion and Beiping.

There are good coal mines in Datong Province, and from there to the east to Beiping, it needs to be built, and then take the canal to respond to Tianfu. ”

The lieutenant chief is responsible for the specific affairs arrangement, which is actually the route planned by Han Han.

Go to Datong to find out the good coal mines, and tell the local people how to improve their living standards.

Then there was the former capital of the Yuan Dynasty, where the Yan Palace, and Zhu Di would be the place of the domain in the future.

Passing by cannot be treated as if nothing happened, and technical support must be provided as before.

When Zhu Yuanzhang once went to Kaifeng, he didn't care about the livelihood of the people along the road, he wouldn't, and the ministers didn't think they should do anything extra.

Zhu Biao and Zhu Fan came out, followed by Xiaqiu Village, and taught all the way, teaching two people knowledge, and teaching the people along the way to improve their living standards.

"It's a pity that Taiyuan Mansion, our younger brother! Let's help again in the future, this time we really can't go around again. ”

Zhu Fan felt embarrassed that he didn't help his brother once.

"That salt lake can be carried out according to the beach drying method, otherwise it will always be bitter." Zhu Biao thought of the rock salt here.

Rock salt can be continuously purified, and there is no problem in the salt lake, which used to be boiled, and the salt lake was also boiled, but the boiled salt was not good, mainly bitter, and it was uncomfortable to eat too much.

"Yes, go back and tell my brother, let him find his father, where he is in charge, see how his prefect is, anyway, we are sad, go back and replace it."

Zhu Fan nodded, yes, my brother has a salt lake there, which has been used since ancient times, but the quality is not very good, everyone barely eats it, and it is estimated that it is the most suitable to feed the livestock.

"The arrangement that should be arranged, the packing up that should be packed, let's take the gold, silver and jewelry and go, the jade seal is the most important."

Zhu Biao turned around and walked back, talking as he walked.
