Daming: Let you build roads, you have access to highways throughout the country

Chapter 67: Long Live the Mountain Hu!!!

Zhu Yuanzhang, the prince Zhu Biao, and the Yan King Zhu Di, who were far away in Yingtianfu, all realized the importance of Qingzhou City.

This small state and county has never made grandpa pay so much attention!

Now, Qingzhou City must not be chaotic!

Winter supplies, one after another, were sent to Qingzhou City.

This even includes winter clothes that should have been given priority to the army.

However, it was only enough for 300,000 winter clothes.

But in Qingzhou City, there are 500,000 disaster victims!

There is still a gap of 200,000!

Zhu Yuanzhang, Prince Zhu Biao, and Yan King Zhu Di are all thinking of a way, and after getting these winter clothes, Zhu Rong is determined in his heart, because Qingzhou City itself ~ is also rushing to make winter clothes.

200,000 gaps, for him, is not at all – nothing.

20,000 women workers have temporarily stopped the production of cotton cloth, and now there is enough cotton cloth on hand.

There is only one task for everyone, that is, to make winter clothes for the disaster victims!

These are all winter clothes to wear on their bodies, and the female workers are naturally extremely active.

20,000 female workers, working in three shifts, day and night, can’t wait to wipe the needle and thread out of the spark!

At the same time, outside Qingzhou City, one simple house after another has been built.

These houses, made of hollow brick and concrete, are not only strong and reliable, but also have a certain effect on the cold.

At the same time, Zhu Rong used the silver two he had on hand to purchase a large amount of coal.

Coupled with the firewood prepared in advance, the heating problem can be basically guaranteed.

With these, 500,000 victims can survive this cold winter.

As for other materials such as quilts, it is not so urgent. After all, it is a disaster victim, and the living conditions are certainly not comparable to the aborigines in Qingzhou City.

It is already very rare to be able to reach this level.

Zhu Rong has realized that behind the Qingzhou incident, it is not so simple, but now the forces involved in the investigation of the incident are very complicated, and it is difficult for him to make a move.

If you continue to send people to investigate, if you don’t investigate things clearly, you will cause a commotion.

This matter is related to the stability of the old Zhu family. Whether it is a cheap father, or the eldest brother or the fourth brother, they all attach great importance to it.

Their investigation will definitely be much stronger than their own.

And what he has to do now is to take care of the 500,000 victims, avoid other bad pools, and then wait quietly for the results and wait for the big fish to surface.

Jiang Yinhou’s mentality is not as good as his, and he frowns all day, because he finds that he has been followed by several groups of people when he travels these days.

There is no need to guess, and I know that there must be people from the imperial court here, and if not, there will be people from the prince and even King Yan.

Jiangyin Hou is in the textile workshop with Zhu Rong, checking the progress of winter clothes in time.

Rows of workshops, neatly arranged, like Wang Yang, every time he came here, Jiangyin Hou felt extremely shocked.

The two chatted while walking, the sky became overcast, and the north wind was a little cold.

Jiang Yinhou was old, and hurriedly tightened his clothes, and then, he felt a trace of coldness on his face.

He looked up at the sky, and his face changed slightly: “Your Highness, the sky has changed.” ”

Zhu Rong also noticed something different, spread out his hand, and a snowflake fell in the palm of his hand, crystal clear, and slowly melted under the heat of his palm.

“It’s snowing”

After all, Qingzhou City still fell for the first snow.

In a year of great drought, this winter came a little earlier.

This snow, a little earlier than usual, made many people nervous.

The first to bear the brunt were the tens of thousands of victims gathered outside the west gate of Qingzhou City.

These people basically have no ability to work. Survivability, but also the most vulnerable.

When it snows, it means that the temperature drops sharply, and it is difficult to say whether it can survive it.

And at this moment, carriage after carriage of winter clothes, led by Zhu Rong, were transported from the huge base of the textile workshop and sent over non-stop.

“Get in line! Come out and get your winter clothes! ”

The servants of King Qi’s mansion shouted loudly over and over again.

When tens of thousands of victims heard this, cheers erupted.

The winter clothes assigned to these people are all winter clothes made of cotton and cotton, and they are also the best quality winter clothes with the strongest warmth.

The elderly, children, and women, as well as the victims who took care of them, lined up like a long queue to receive winter clothes one by one.

After an old man received the winter clothes, his eyes were wet.

“Is this made of cotton?” This is cotton stuffed inside?! ”

The people next to him were also stunned.

“God, King Qi’s Mansion actually gave us such good winter clothes!”

“I’ve never worn clothes made of cotton in my life!”

Among the victims, there was another burst of cheers.

They didn’t expect that the winter clothes provided by the Qi Royal Mansion were of such good quality.

It turned out to be cotton clothes and cotton winter clothes made of cotton!

Most of them are very ordinary people. Having worn rough linen clothes all his life, he simply cannot afford to buy it on weekdays, and he is not willing to spend silver on this expensive cotton cloth.

However, in this year of catastrophe, the Qi Royal Mansion not only provided them with meals that they usually could not eat, but also provided them with such good clothes to wear.

This winter, you can get through it!

“Even for the sake of His Royal Highness King Qi, the old man will live until the spring of next year, and I will never disappoint His Highness’s wishes!”

There was laughter all around.

The sky was covered with snow, but the victims on the earth were smiling, as if it was a New Year.

Mukden Temple.

Officials who rushed back from Qingzhou are reporting the progress of the investigation to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Now the case has not been thoroughly investigated, but many changes in Qingzhou City, with these investigators, feedback to Zhu Yuanzhang’s ears.

And the most noticeable thing is naturally the black asphalt roads.

Now the construction of asphalt roads has radiated from Qingzhou City to all around, and even built to Jinan Province.

Entering the territory of Qingzhou City, you can see the completely different official road.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought hard, and he couldn’t imagine what the asphalt road looked like.

“You draw us a picture, what is this asphalt road?”

Zhu Yuanzhang said curiously.

The eunuch hurriedly brought pen, ink and inkstone, and the official grabbed the brush, frowned, scratched his ears and cheeks, thought for a long time, and then drew a thick straight line on the paper.

Then he stopped writing.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared blankly at this thick and straight black line, and asked with some doubts: “Finished painting?” ”

The official looked up pitifully, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and nodded, and said: “The painting is finished, Your Majesty, it’s so black, very straight, and it is very strong to step on, the carriage runs on it, there is no bump at all, and the rain falls on it, and it will not be muddy!” ”

Zhu Yuanzhang gasped, and he couldn’t help but think of what happened before Zhu Rong was kicked to Qingzhou City by him.

At that time, Zhu Rong made a boastful statement in the court hall that he wanted to build a new official road for Daming, even in rainy weather, it was by no means muddy, and it was extremely flat and traveled very fast.

Could it be that this is the asphalt road in the mouth of the old seven?

It’s just that by imagination alone, he really can’t figure out what kind of asphalt road it is, and this official is not a bullshit, and he can’t see anything.

A vertical line on the paper said that the drawing was finished, and Zhu Yuanzhang who looked at it wanted to carry a knife to kill.

Zhu Yuanzhang could only imagine randomly, well, it was black, so he thought about leaning on the road paved with black bricks.

The official also said: “Returning to Your Majesty, asphalt roads are better than such masonry paved roads!” ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little shocked: “Is it still good?” ”

This is a little beyond Zhu Yuanzhang’s imagination, what kind of road is Lao Qi’s cultivation?

No, I have to let him send people to build a few such roads in Yingtianfu.

Let’s take a walk, this rainy weather, will not be muddy road, this carriage will not run up the road will not bump, what is it like.

He once said to the Empress Ma before that there is no rainy weather in this world, and there is no official road that will not be muddy.

However, this old seventh actually built it, and in the name of fighting, he was still ordered to build a road!

Zhu Yuanzhang pouted, let’s just say casually, you kid actually came for real.

If it weren’t for the internal and external troubles now, he would have been eager to pay a private visit and kill Qingzhou City to see it with his own eyes.

Subsequently, the sweet potatoes brought back by the officials also opened Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes, but this time he did not dare to eat them directly.

Although he does not believe that potatoes are highly toxic, this kind of food that he has never seen before, it is only appropriate to eat it himself after confirming that it is completely safe.

“How to eat this sweet potato?”

The official hurriedly said: “You can cook porridge, the feeling of satiety is particularly strong, you can also eat it raw, His Royal Highness King Qi said, the most delicious way is to bake, make roasted sweet potatoes, fragrant, sweet and glutinous, extremely delicious.”

Chen once had the honor of eating a roasted sweet potato in Qingzhou City, and this taste is really amazing.”

This official, as he spoke, almost drooled down, obviously in this unfinished memory!

Zhu Yuanzhang was also overwhelmed by what he said, so he couldn’t help but lick his lips, and asked the eunuch to send a few to the imperial dining room and bake them out to take a look.

It didn’t take long for the roasted sweet potatoes to be delivered.

Before he could bring it in, Zhu Yuanzhang twitched his nose and smelled a strange fragrance.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the roasted sweet potatoes on the table, his eyes widened, and his saliva kept swallowing.

This sweet potato is a sweet potato type, and after baking, the skin is charred and crispy, and in some places it is slightly charred and has turned black.

After burning, the skin is crispy, revealing Huang Tongtong’s flesh sac inside, and on the side, there is still a tempting oil juice!

The aroma was fragrant, Zhu Yuanzhang swallowed his saliva frantically, after all, he couldn’t help it, picked up the roasted sweet potato, and started eating.

The eunuch next to him was shocked: “Your Majesty”

Before this eunuch had time to taste it, Zhu Yuanzhang held it up with gust.

Zhu Yuanzhang said impatiently: “It’s okay, Lao Qi’s ability to poison Lao Tzu can’t succeed.” ”

The eunuch hurriedly retreated.

“Ouch! It’s still hot! ”

The official swallowed saliva next to him: “This roasted sweet potato is to eat it while it is hot, it is the best to eat.” ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn’t help it anymore, went to a piece of roasted crispy sweet potato skin, and took a gentle bite.

I only felt that the mouth was sweet and soft and glutinous, and the unique sweet potato aroma instantly filled his mouth, making him can’t help but close his eyes with enjoyment, intoxicated to the extreme!

“Old Seventh is in Qingzhou, but he will enjoy it!”

Zhu Yuanzhang muttered while eating.

“It’s so delicious, why don’t you send it to us early to taste!”
