Chapter 506 Gambling Contract!

After thinking about it for a long time, the determined look in Zhao Jun's eyes became more and more prosperous!

Railway, must be repaired!

This is something that I have decided since the successful research of the steam engine, no matter what kind of obstacles I encounter, no matter how many difficulties I encounter, I must fix it.

But how to repair it can be a little more flexible, and the reason why they oppose the construction of the railway now is nothing more than that the manpower and material resources required for one-time construction are too huge, and they don't know how big the strength of the train is, so they don't know the bottom of their hearts.

In this case, he will first build a railway connecting Yunzhou City, Yunzhong City, and Dingyang City, and use these three cities as a testing ground, so that they can see with their own eyes the role of the train and the help it will help Yunzhou City.

In this way, they will slowly and naturally agree to build these two large railways.

And you can also use this railway connecting the three cities as a practice, presumably with the experience of building this railway, when building two long railways in the future, you will be able to have more experience, reduce and solve the mistakes and difficulties that may arise in the construction process.

With a group of skilled personnel, it can also speed up the construction in the future.

It's a win-win-win, no! It's a good thing for three things!

Zhao Jun's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, brighter and brighter, and his eyes are becoming more and more determined!

Looking up, he looked at the ministers who were trying to persuade him and said aloud: "Ladies and gentlemen, how can you hesitate because you see difficulties?

My Yunzhou County has developed from a poor and white border wilderness and a remote border that everyone disliked to such a prosperous scene today, and how much time and difficulties have been overcome to achieve today's achievements.

Now in the face of a thing that can make my Yunzhou County stronger, but you want to give up because of the difficulties that appear in front of you, and let yourself shrink back into your comfort zone today, do you still have the perseverance and fearless determination of my Yunzhou County during the development period?

Are you still the same person you used to be?

If it was five years ago, six years ago, seven years ago!

Faced with such a crossroads, will you be what you are now?

You have disappointed the king so much! ”

Zhao Jun's words suddenly made the officials who had just made Zhao Jun give up building the railway open their mouths for a long time, but they didn't know what to say.

Zhao Jun's words reminded them of the extent of desolation in Yunzhou County, which had never been developed before, only they knew, a city with a population of just over 10,000, and simple stone houses made of stones everywhere.

The people in the city cultivate the most barren land in the whole world, and they can survive the winter by watching the imperial court relief every year, and every family is poorly clothed and hungry!

Days like that are almost their daily routine.

Today's high-ranking officials, except for Ding Hongguang and his military and Jiang He, who came later, many of the rest are originally from this Yunzhou City.

Along the way, only they know how many difficulties they have overcome and how many choices they have faced.

Since the arrival of King Yun, every time he put forward amazing words, everyone was asked to do what he said, and everyone was terrified almost every time, because the capital in everyone's hands at that time was limited, and if there was a mistake, the whole family might be starved to death that year.

But they didn't have any money, although they were frightened at that time, but they had the courage to fight, under the leadership of King Yun, they walked on the gambling table of fate countless times, and won the final victory again and again, and slowly Yunzhou County gradually prospered, and their families also had more capital in their hands, but their courage seemed to have gradually lost.

Under Zhao Jun's scolding, they suddenly realized this, but in the face of the huge consumption of manpower and material resources, this time it was to block Yunzhou County for the next few decades!

How can they not be timid and fearful?

Even if it was the Cloud King who brought up this matter, he was victorious.

Zhao Jun looked at their expressions, and he didn't know what they thought.

Snorted coldly, secretly thinking about Chun, although these people are getting up with themselves, but slowly their minds have gradually failed to keep up with the times, if they have been in charge of the rights of Yunzhou County, sooner or later the development of Yunzhou County will stagnate because of their self-contained old-fashioned ideas, it seems that they have to prepare early.

But that's all for later, and the immediate priority is to solve the railroad problem.

Zhao Jun saw that they were all quiet, so he spoke.

"I know what you guys think, it's just that you don't want to spend so much money to block the future of the train, thinking it's not worth the price.

In this case, let's make a bet that now we will not build the railway from Yunzhou County to Yoel County, nor will we build the railway from Yunzhou County to Grassland City.

We will build a railway between the city of Yunju and the three cities of Yunzhong and Dingyang, and then we will see how much change the railway can bring to the three cities with a one-year limit.

Finally, how about we decide whether to start building the two railways? ”

The officials looked at each other for a while, and then Jiang He hesitated and stood up and asked, "Lord Wang, why do you have to build this railway?" ”

"Because he's the future!"

Zhao Jun's face was firm, and he replied categorically.

Jiang He was choked by these words, turned around and discussed with the hundred officials again, sighed and turned back and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, you are the lord of Yunzhou County, since you insist, then as a courtier, we naturally should not stop it, since you are so confident."

Then we will make a bet on this three-city railway, and after the road is completed, it will run for a year, and we will bet on the role of this train with the prince!

But if the prince loses, please give up this idea, it is not easy for Yunzhou County to have today's weather, you are a pioneer, so don't do the old things of the former Tang Xuanzong. ”

The meaning of his words is already obvious. Boss, it's not easy to save up your family money, don't be like Li Longji of the former Tang Dynasty and lose the family money you saved up later!

The corners of Zhao Jun's mouth twitched, good guy, he actually compared himself to Tang Xuanzong, so sure that he would lose, thinking that I was messing around?

Good! Let's see who's crying and who's laughing!

Zhao Jun nodded confidently and said, "Okay!" Since you have gambled with this king! Then let's wait and see, let's say first, during the construction of the three-city railway, no one is allowed to do anything, if you dare to make an off-the-beaten-path move, then don't blame the king for being ruthless, you also know the temper of the king, don't cry dad and call mother when the time comes! ”

Jiang He was suddenly full of black lines, you are also our prince, even if we oppose you to build a railway, but on top of this gambling contract, we will not make any external moves, everyone knows your character, and no one dares to come out.

Are you going to threaten us directly?

When even bowed his hand and said: "Don't worry, the prince still has this kind of integrity, and it is impossible to do such villain behavior." ”

Zhao Jun looked at him: "A gentleman's word!" ”

Jiang He said solemnly: "Whip the horse quickly!" ”

"Good! The bet will take effect from this moment, and you will start preparing for the construction of the three-city railway tomorrow, and the construction will begin soon! ”

"No!"
