Early in the morning of January 27 in the seventh year of the Great Song Dynasty.

At the end of the morning and the beginning of the morning, the sky has just dawned, and the Xianfeng Gate, one of the north gates of Bianliang, is lively.

When the spring sun was shining, the people outside the city carried all kinds of things into the city to sell, including rice, live fish, weaving, furs, livestock, and so on.

There are all kinds of cries and sounds of selling in the streets, and there are even people who drive a fat pig into the city, ready to go to the morning market to slaughter on the spot.

The air is filled with all sorts of smells.

At this time, after eleven years of development, Bianliang Kaifeng Mansion has already changed its new appearance.

Let's start with urban change.

Buildings have risen from the ground, small coal stoves are placed inside and outside every house, and honeycomb coal is piled up like a mountain, which has dispelled a lot of chill for last winter.

The population is growing, factories are opening one by one outside the city, and there are countless steel mills, textile mills, cement factories, and brick factories of all kinds.

From the original robe to the present spring and summer, there are long trousers, short shirts, and even the emergence of the button industry, which has greatly changed the clothing of the people in the Song Dynasty and made the life of the Song people colorful.

This is not only the limit test for people, but also for horses, even if there are post stations on the road to change people and horses, but many horses are running and running, foaming at the mouth and exhausted.

People screamed and ducked.

It was not until the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, during the Great Famine in Italy, that corn became a staple food, and the bolenta, or corn paste, was derived from corn.

Then there's the food change.

In addition, the clothes have also changed greatly, such as military coats are very popular in winter, and the clothing of the Song people is gradually loose and comfortable.

Most of the new potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes are actually used as livestock feed, except for the very poor.

Therefore, in the case that there is no shortage of staple food in the Great Song Dynasty and the grain reserves are relatively abundant, the newly introduced crops rarely become the main food. Either it is used as livestock feed, or, like chili peppers, it becomes a condiment for cooking.

The 800-mile rush is really a deadly run, and it must be changed in 24 hours, and in just one day, the distance of 800 miles can be run.

A citizen of Bianliang said.

"I guess it's too, tell me, did Fan Xianggong win or lose?"

Only after leaving the city, it is no longer the willow shore in Liu Yong's mouth, but the high-rise buildings, the traffic is crowded, and the excitement is more than 100 times more than before.

And this is only 800 miles in one day, if the destination is more than 800 miles, it is 1,600 miles in two days.

But it's a good thing either way.

In the early years, Western colonists brought corn from the Americas, but Europeans did not like it very much, so they used it as livestock feed.

With the development of the textile industry, cotton, wool and other products have flowed into large quantities, and the styles of clothes are constantly changing.

Now the dining table of the Bianliang people has not changed much, it is still mainly rice and wheat, and the increase is mainly meat.

It is estimated that in another five years, the streets of the Great Song Dynasty will no longer be dominated by wooden tire carts, horse-drawn carts, donkey carts, and ox carts, but plate carts, horse-drawn carts, donkey carts, ox carts, and bicycles made of rubber tires.

Some pedestrians even knocked over the stalls next to them in order to avoid fast horses, adding to the chaos of the already noisy market.

"That's naturally a win, didn't the newspaper say it a few days ago? Fan Gong surrounded Xijin. ”

"Alas, I really hope to win, but I always feel that this is like a dream, once upon a time, how strong the Liao people were, I didn't dare to dream about it."

Another said: "Only in this way can there be an eight-hundred-mile rush." Otherwise, there is no important news, and you need to run so desperately. ”

"yes, what could lead to such a big battle?"

A guest was hit with hot tea, but he didn't have time to exhale the pain, but while rolling and crawling to dodge, he got up from the ground, and immediately said in shock: "Oh my God, it's actually an eight-hundred-mile rush, I haven't seen it for many years." ”

"Eight hundred miles expedited!"

Now there is an 800-mile expeditious, which shows the seriousness of the situation.

"Now my Great Song Dynasty will still be afraid of him Liaoguo? We're strong! ”

As for travel, that's not to mention.

After all, although the introduction of new crops has not been used as a staple food, it has actually increased the development of animal husbandry. Moreover, Zhao Zhen has invented castration pigs to make pork meat more delicious, thus enriching the table of the Song people.

In the midst of this noise, a rider galloped from outside the Xianfeng Gate and rushed into the downtown area, causing a riot in the market for a short period of time.

Tea drinking has always been popular in the Bianliang morning market, and the tea stalls are full of customers, and the tea stalls are about to overturn after the galloping knights run over.

This is the same as when corn was introduced to Italy.

But in the face of this situation, the guards of the city, the officials of the Kaifeng Prefecture, and the guards, scouts, and messengers of the Imperial City Division who were supposed to maintain order in the city did not stop them, but instead shouted at the people and told them to hide on their own.

It is even rumored that there is a certain kind of black silk dyed with silk in the palace, and now there is a very small market circulating in the market, but even if the price of a black silk is extremely high, it is in short supply.

The friend next to him helped him and pulled him aside, and by the time they got up again, the knight had already slipped into the distant downtown and headed for the Imperial City.

Therefore, if there is an accident on the road, the slightest carelessness may be a person on his back, and the casualty rate is very high. As a result, the imperial court stipulates that such an extreme method is often not adopted unless it is absolutely necessary.

At the same time, with the acceleration of the construction of the Fourth Ring Road, the urbanization progress of the periphery is also higher, such as reinforced concrete houses are mainly concentrated outside the city, and there are relatively few outer cities and inner cities, which still maintain an antique atmosphere.

With Zhao Zhen's invention of better rubber, rubber tires slowly came to the market, and bicycles have appeared, but they have not yet become popular.

And sedan chairs are also very popular, and it is only a matter of time before rickshaws or even cars appear in the future.

Migrant workers who came to Bianliang to find jobs have entered the factory, adding bricks and tiles to the prosperity of Bianliang again and reaching a higher level.

"I don't have to think about it, there must be a result of the war in the north."

"Yes, we're strong."

An old man from Bianliang muttered to himself.

I still remember that during the Battle of Lanzhou, the Liao soldiers came to the city, less than 200 miles away from Bianliang.

But now, it is our soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty who have come to the city of his Liao people.

"What is the problem of river water pollution control in Bianliang City now? I'll go and inform Kaifeng Mansion later, I'm going to take a look. ”

At this moment, in the Constitutional Academy, Zhao Jun is processing today's official documents.

When he saw last year's industrial and commercial development report sent by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, Zhao Jun saw so many factories appearing, and he remembered the issue of environmental governance.

The main reason is that his home is on the edge of the imperial city, and he is too busy with official business on weekdays, so he doesn't even have time to check the situation of the river in the city.

The increasing number of factories will inevitably be accompanied by environmental pollution, although it is inevitable that there will be worsening environmental problems along the way to industrialization.

However, early preparation and prevention can also be managed while developing. Rather than waiting for development to be developed, the cost will be much greater than it would be before it deteriorated.

"I've been concerned about this issue."

Li Di took off his reading glasses and said to Zhao Jun: "Before the establishment of the factory, the rivers in the city had serious pollution problems, which were the historical legacy of the original dyeing and weaving industry and ink industry, and now these polluting industrial organizations have been relocated outside the city. ”

"And not only the dyeing and weaving industry and the ink industry, but also the domestic garbage and excrement of the residents in the city itself have to be transported away by the river, so that the water quality near the city gates of Xincaomen, Northeast Water Gate, Xinsong Gate, Datong Gate, and Xuanhuamen in the lower reaches of the river has not been very good, and the smell is stinking."

Yan Shu also turned his head and said: "Now Kaifeng Mansion has recently carried out rectification in this regard, prohibiting people from defecating in the open and throwing garbage into the river at will. Strengthened manure treatment, which can be used as fertilizer and cannot be wasted in rivers. ”

"Well, that's fine. We have to ensure the water quality of the Bianliang River, ensure the water quality of the residents, and not let the water quality of the upper reaches of the Bianhe River have problems. ”

Zhao Jun nodded and said: "This water is the people's daily water, and the Minamata disease in Japan in later generations is a lesson written in our own history textbooks, and we must not commit it." ”

"This rest assured, industrial water is now strictly required, and Kaifeng Mansion is also publicizing every day that the people's drinking water must be boiled to drink, and the basic popularization of coal burning in winter must be opened, and now the propaganda is so big, the people will not know nothing."

Cai Qi sighed: "That is, we don't have the ability to carry out sewage treatment now, otherwise it would be so troublesome." ”

Industrialization is a process, but it is also a trouble.

In the past, although there was river pollution in Bianliang, there was not much pollution.

After all, feces are very important, and most people use toilets at home unless they can't help it on the street and run to the river to defecate.

The rest is at most the pollution of the dyeing and weaving industry and the ink-making industry, which makes the lower reaches of the river colorful and green.

But industrialization is different, and this can have serious consequences.

So you have to be cautious.

Only by moving all the industries out of the city and so that the water in the upstream residential areas does not contaminate a little industrial wastewater, is the foundation of development.

"Well, the other thing is the issue of environmental development, and now the Yellow River is temporarily controlled, but it is reforested."

Zhao Jun is planning to continue talking about the environment.

At this moment, suddenly a member of the concert courtyard rushed into the courtyard and shouted: "Report, Fan Xianggong is in a hurry for 800 miles!" ”

Eight hundred miles in a hurry?

All the prime ministers in the Constitutional Yuan stopped what they were doing and their eyes converged.

"You read."

Zhao Jun didn't let people send the official document over.

"Our department defeated the Liao army in a battle, Yeluzong really fled north in panic, and the army has recovered Yanyun!"

The clerk of the concert hall reads.

A short sentence suddenly caused a monstrous wave.

In an instant, the house, which had been relatively quiet, suddenly became lively.

"Old Fan did a good job."

Yan Shu was overjoyed and said, "Yanyun has recovered!" ”

"Great, this is the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun that have been lost for a hundred years!"

"We need to get the news to the officials quickly."

"Yes, yes, we must go to the Chongzheng Hall immediately and inform the official family of this great event."

Many prime ministers were crazy, smiling and elated.

You must know that the Great Song Dynasty has lost the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun for too long.

Even many people think that it is impossible to recover it in this life, which can only be a luxury.

However, when the dream really comes true, it is the day when it is exciting.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Jun was also very happy, got up and said, "Go to the Chongzheng Palace." ”

As he spoke, he said to the eunuch on duty at the door: "You go and inform Lao Wang immediately, and let Lao Wang report to the official family." ”

"Yes."

The eunuch hurriedly ran to the harem.

Everyone didn't set off immediately, but tidied up their clothes a little, and then slowly walked towards the Chongzheng Palace.

At this time, Zhao Zhen was not in the Chongzheng Palace, but in the back garden to do experiments.

He only occasionally turns on the computer in the Chongzheng Hall in the morning and uses it, after all, the computer may break down if it is not used for too long.

But the computer can't be used all the time, so most of the time, he plays in his own lab in the back garden.

The eunuch rushed to the back garden, and Wang Shouzhong was waiting outside Zhao Zhen's physical palace.

Interested in electrification, Zhao Zhen wants to promote the second industrial revolution, so he has been researching electricity recently.

Hearing the eunuch's report, Wang Shouzhong also hurriedly ran to the door, knocked on the door, and said in a low voice: "Official, official? ”

"What?"

After a while, Zhao Zhen opened the door and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

He knew that if nothing serious happened, Wang Shouzhong would not easily disturb him to do the experiment.

"Fan Gong reported urgently, we defeated the Liao army in one fell swoop, Yelu Zong really fled north in panic, and Yanyun has been recovered!"

Wang Shouzhong reported the news to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly showed a look of ecstasy on his face and said: "Hahahahaha, Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, cough cough cough"

I was so excited that I coughed.

"Official, official."

Wang Shouzhong hurriedly patted Zhao Zhen's back and waved to the palace maid not far away.

The palace maid immediately came over with tea.

"I'm fine, I'm so happy."

Zhao Zhen took the tea and drank it all, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said excitedly: "Great, during my reign, I actually laid down the sixteen states of Yanyun, which is a great cause that Taizu and Taizong have not completed." ”

The smile on his face was almost irrepressible.

What Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi didn't do, he did it, and this merit is already greater than that of his grandfather Zhao Guangyi.

If they can destroy Liao and Western Xia in the future, and then occupy their territory, I am afraid that Taizu Zhao Kuangyin's exploits will not be comparable to him.

"Official, you are already waiting for the official family in the Chongzheng Palace."

Wang Shouzhong hurriedly said.

"Okay, then get over there."

Zhao Zhen urged: "Let's go, I want to amnesty the world, I want to reduce taxes again, and I want to have fun with the people!" ”

What is the point of this great achievement if it is not shared with the world?
