Chapter Seventy-Six: The Spirit of Steel
"If you kill people for a while, you can't manage them for a lifetime." Yao Guangxiao said with a smile.
Ge Cheng smiled: "It's enough for a while." ”
Yao Guangxiao did not continue to argue, and it did not make much sense to argue with Ge Cheng about the next crisis in Ying Tianfu.
Both of them looked at King Yan.
"When my father was young, he broke out of the killing and naturally used thunderous methods, but over the years, everything has been lenient, and the intimidation of corrupt officials is the first, and the heavy punishment is the last."
Zhu Di said half of it, and didn't say the rest of the words.
Yao Guangxiao is not afraid to say.
"The military generals left by the saint for the crown prince can be said to be all over the Manchu Dynasty, especially the military generals, the martial arts led by Lan Yu, who have made great achievements and are unrivaled.
"They don't even pay attention to the King of Qin, the King of Jin, and the King of Yan, and only recognize the crown prince. This was a good thing for the imperial court in the past. ”
"But when the prince died suddenly, who could suppress these people? Is King Yan confident? Not to mention anything else, Lan Yu has hurt King Yan a few times. ”
The emperor appointed his sons as the kings of the border lands, in addition to dealing with the remnants of the Yuan court, but also to suppress Wuxun.
Although the idea is correct, but now with the strength of these people in the military, as well as their past military exploits.
Who can they serve except the prince?
If they rebel, who will stop them?
Zhu Di shook his head, although he paid for himself, he didn't dare to boast that he could defeat them.
"Jiang Xian came out of the mountain again, which shows that the saint has a murderous intention, who is this murderous intention? Ge Changshi, do you want to guess who it will be? ”
Yao Guangxiao said with a smile.
Ge Cheng kept silent.
There are signs of many things, and smart people can understand it at a glance, but with his identity, it is not as convenient as Yao Guangxiao.
There are some things he can say, but he can't say them himself.
"It will definitely not be aimed at the vassal king, the king of Qin has lost power, even his personal guards have been taken away, and the king of Jin returned in vain last year, and his prestige in the army has been greatly lost."
"Among the strongest princes, only King Yan has performed well, but it is difficult to hold alone, so at this time, the prince is not in any danger, and he should not take the initiative to give up military power, presumably the saint does not want to see it."
Yao Guangxiao had a thorough analysis of the affairs of the imperial court, and Ge Cheng was speechless and couldn't help but admire.
Compared to the previous secrets, this person's talent is far stronger than theirs, no wonder King Yan trusts this person more and more.
Zhu Di nodded calmly, which was a response to Yao Guangxiao.
I felt embarrassed in my heart.
Could it be that the boss's mind, as smart as Yao Guangxiao, also saw this? Wouldn't that compare yourself to a father?
Fortunately, the boss dissuaded him, made himself hesitate, and did not make a decision immediately, otherwise when he informed the Beiping Dusi, even if he listened to Yao Guangxiao's words today, there would be no room for reversal.
Yao Guangxiao and Ge Cheng left Yan Wang's place, Yao Guangxiao stopped, and Ge Cheng turned back curiously.
"I have heard the name of the eldest prince for a long time, and I have never met, I heard that the eldest prince set up a new factory, and recruited people to the health center, Ge Changshi is not interested, and the poor monk went to visit."
Hearing Yao Guangxiao's invitation, Ge Cheng hesitated for a while and nodded hesitantly.
He didn't want to go there.
If you don't see it, it means that he doesn't know, and if you don't know, you can't say it.
The two rode on horseback.
"Dongbeitai Village is different from the rest of the villages, it is a place where artisans gather spontaneously, there are not many surnames, and the clan is not prosperous."
On the way, passing through the village all the way, Ge Cheng took the initiative to introduce.
"Oh." When Yao Guangxiao heard it for the first time, his eyes were full of interest.
"Originally, there was an iron shop, a guild of craftsmen here, but it was not very famous, and with the decline of the iron smelting station, it became more and more famous."
Hearing this, Yao Guangxiao explored: "It is similar to the women's society of the Tang and Song dynasties, but unfortunately it has disappeared for a hundred years, and I don't know if our dynasty has risen." ”
"The master has traveled from south to north, and his footprints have spread all over several provinces, haven't you seen it?"
"Nope."
"In that case, there shouldn't be any."
"I have only been in the dynasty for more than 20 years, and there will naturally be one in the future, just like the good hall of the Tang and Song dynasties, many local big families and clans have paid for it."
"The ancients had a saying that they knew etiquette and knew honor and disgrace when they had enough food and clothing. Our dynasty has gradually prospered under the rule of the saints, and it is natural that we should take the restoration of China as our important task. ”
"Private learning has begun to rise in many places," the two of them have great respect for the words of the Holy Heavens today.
"In front of it is the Northeast Taiwan Village."
Unconsciously, the two rode their horses slowly for a long time, and Ge Cheng pointed ahead.
Yao Guangxiao raised his head, and it was really different.
It was gray and black in sight.
When they got closer, they were full of wood slag, coal ash and iron slag, piled up like a mountain, and the river was full of large and small waterwheels.
Half of the ten families have kilns in front of the doors, and the wooden and straw sheds are the same, and the sound of clanging is endless.
"I don't know why, after entering here, the poor monk has a lot of strength in his heart, and he only feels that there is great energy here."
"Haha." Ge Cheng couldn't help but laugh.
"Could it be that the poor monk said the wrong thing?"
"The master is not wrong, the eldest prince has explained."
"Please Ge Changshi to solve your doubts."
"The eldest prince calls it the power of industry."
"Industrial?"
Yao Guangxiao lowered his head and chewed the word carefully.
"China Heavy Industry Steam Engine Factory", "China Heavy Industry Coke Refinery", "China Heavy Industry Railway Engineering Department", "China Heavy Industry Engineering Department"
The four big gold signboards were hung high, and under the sunlight, they were unusually dazzling, and Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but squint his eyes.
To the south of the river is the Chung Hwa Heavy Industry Steam Engine Factory, with two large chimneys taller than the number, seven or eight huge houses, and construction sites in the vicinity.
To the north of the river is the China Heavy Industries Coke Refinery, but there are many wooden frames built in many small houses.
Some of the houses are being torn down from the beams, and some of the walls are being torn down, kicking up a lot of dust.
And that's not all.
In the distance, there are also many places that have become construction sites, with brand new houses, houses with only missing beams, and some laying foundations.
"How many people are needed here, no wonder there are not enough people." Yao Guangxiao was amazed.
He has seen a lot of workshops, such as the silk workshop in Yingtianfu, the total number of people is not many times that of here, but he is indeed the first time he has seen a factory like this.
"No wonder King Yan loves the eldest son, just with the industry established by the eldest prince, it is the same wherever it is placed."
Ge Cheng was shocked by the earth-shaking changes here for a long time.
"Iron Spirit."
He thought of what the eldest prince had said.
Originally, he thought he was an iron-making worker, but he always felt that it wasn't, what did the eldest prince mean?
"Oh my God, my lord."
"Hi Zo"
……
Six men sat in a circle, each holding a thick hemp rope in both hands, and pulling a large and heavy stone plate in the middle.
In the center of the circle of more than a dozen people, an old man with a felt hat commanded in the center.
Whenever he issued that peculiar emphasis, every word has a node, which accurately hits people's hearts and makes people feel a lot of strength.
And people will respond to him with inexplicable language.
More than a dozen stone disks were lifted into the air with inertia, and the ropes kept it from flying, smashing heavily on the ground, making the land rammed.
"Tired of tamping and making sins"
"Hi Zo"
"Smack." The sound of a stone plate falling to the ground.
……
Ge Cheng and Yao Guangxiao looked at each other, and the two of them were so enthusiastic that they felt embarrassed.
