Chapter 1238 Ask the Chief Advisor About Development Choices

It started snowing at noon, and the government offices of various counties in Jingzhao Prefecture sent yamen runners to the village to check the situation.

The village chief had already looked several times and asked whether the houses in the village were OK.

If you find any problems, tell them in advance, don't wait until they collapse or people die before crying.

The people took out bamboo snow pushers, bamboo snow shovels, and bamboo brooms and prepared them. When the snow stopped, they would sweep the snow together.

When sweeping, a snow path should be left for running sleds.

Don't sweep everything away, will the sleds be parked outside the village or outside the county town?

The sleds can run directly in front of each house when they come up from the river channel of the water network.

If there is less snow, they have to move snow from other places.

In the entire development of Chinese history, such things have never happened.

In the Jingzhao Prefecture of the Tang Dynasty where Li Yi was, he could play like this in winter.

"Brother Yi, it feels unreal." Li Longji came back at noon and brought back a woman.

Li Yi didn't ask, and no one else mentioned it.

Obviously, this woman had to sleep with him at night, Wu Jieyu was taking care of the child, and Queen Wang was pregnant.

Li Longji didn't want to go to Xingqing Palace to do that for an hour, and he didn't want to live in Xingqing Palace, so he just brought her here.

The woman went to find Queen Wang and Wu Jieyu, and had to get along well with them.

She also had to meet Li Dan and Concubine Dou Lu, who lived in the manor, so it was obviously not possible not to meet them.

Li Longji was eating hot pot with Li Yi in the shed outside, just three people, and Li Chengqi was there.

The Sixteen Guards and the Yulin Flying Cavalry were on standby. If there was any problem, they had to rush over immediately.

Li Longji had never thought, or dared not to think, that Jingzhao Prefecture had a water network all over in summer and could still be used in winter.

Li Yi was eating mutton, which he cut himself. A piece of mutton was placed next to him. After eating, he cut two plates and washed his hands.

"Some people once dreamed of living upstairs and downstairs, with electricity and telephones, but later found that living in a building was uncomfortable and wired telephones were inconvenient.

At the same time, they dreamed of having their own car, which they thought of when they couldn't even afford a bicycle.

Later, they found that they could have whatever they wanted, some expensive and some cheap.

Some people dreamed of destroying the enemy dozens of miles away during a war, but later found that they could do it thousands of miles away.

If we are bolder and move faster, nothing is impossible."

Li Yi is open-minded, isn't it just development!

When he was a child, his family didn't even have a telephone, but later they had many things, because the speed of social development was too fast.

The current Tang Dynasty is nothing, not even a tractor.

Everyone brings a shovel to the sled, and waits for the warm sun to melt the snow. If there is always a lack of snow in the place where they are running, they will quickly get some snow nearby to cover it.

In winter, when people go on a "long journey", such as from Zhuoying County to Chang'an City, they don't walk, but take a sled.

Otherwise, how can we survive the nights when walking from Zhuoying County to Chang'an in the snow and ice?

In the past, we could walk, calculate the location of the villages, start from one place? How fast to walk, arrive at a certain village? Stay overnight.

If there is no job, it's okay, can we find a job? The money earned by delaying one day is more than that of taking a sled? Who is willing to walk?

"Can we beat the enemy thousands of miles away?" Li Longji didn't care about whether it was a luxury or not? He was seeking confirmation.

"Yes? The key is that there are still weapons that can destroy the entire Jingzhao Prefecture with one strike. By then, no one dares to really use force against us."

Li Yi put the meat on the plate and sighed.

"The attack is above the nine heavens." Li Chengqi put oysters in the hot pot.

He was relieved. The more powerful the skills Li Yi showed, the more relieved he was.

Li Yi always wanted to maintain the current imperial power, that is, to ensure that his third brother became the emperor.

In this way, he could play around, make money as he wanted, and develop the coastal areas as he wanted.

Without suspicion, Li Yi would not allow him to usurp the throne, so the third brother and others were relieved.

"Build rails, stabilize the border first, build rails, and then steam locomotives and other ships to go out. Is three years enough?"

Li Longji was unwilling to develop slowly. He wanted to speed up and create a prosperous era, a real prosperous era.

Li Yi poured out the water in the ceramic basin for heating wine, picked up the thermos and poured water again, and continued to heat wine: "See how determined you are."

"How much determination can be achieved in three years?" Li Longji made up his mind now.

"In one year, as long as we spend money, the railway will be built to the seaside by this time next year.

There is an economic account. The same railway will cost two million strings of cash in three years. Seven or eight Chinese geniuses remember ωωω.78zщ.cδм м.7:8zщ.cōм in one second.

It will cost five million strings of cash in two years.

It will cost fifteen million strings of cash in one year.

Do you want time or money? Do you want to keep the technology secret at a low cost or keep it at a high cost?"

Li Yi is calculating the output of steel. There are more steelmaking furnaces, so confidentiality measures must be increased.

Because they have to be placed outside, there is not enough space in the manor.

At the same time, iron ore mining and coal mining are increased.

The cost has increased geometrically, like the two hospitals he built when he was sick.

It is good to be able to use it in three years if it is repaired at ordinary times.

But at that time, it was required to be calculated by day. How many machines were mobilized? How fast are the materials mobilized from all over the country?

It is okay for Datang to build railways now, depending on how much money you are willing to spend.

Two million strings of cash in three years and fifteen million strings of cash in one year, for the same project, which one would you choose?

Li Yi knew that according to the speed of national construction at that time, UＵReading www.uｕkanshu.net he spent all his money and built the railway that the Tang Dynasty needed in half a month.

All the sections were constructed at the same time, and even if they used airplanes, they could deliver the goods.

"So much difference?" Li Longji was entangled.

Li Chengqi didn't bother himself, he asked directly: "Brother Yi, which one do you think is more cost-effective?"

"Completely follow my plan, one year's cost-effective, snatched time, by the third year, the money earned is guaranteed to exceed 15 million strings of cash."

Li Yi calculated the throughput, and the rails were laid to the seaside in one go, which reduced some of the pressure of transportation on the Yellow River and saved a lot of time.

First, block a canal, otherwise, if you go to the Yellow River through the canal, how can the speed of river transportation compare with that of railways?

The key railway drives not two points, but all locations along the way.

It also includes the prefectures around Jingzhao Prefecture. They send things to Jingzhao Prefecture and load them on trains.

Then he could build a new wharf at the location of Lianyungang at that time. If the foreign merchants were willing, they could sail their ships close to the shore and get cheaper goods.

At the same time, Lianyungang was close to Silla and Japan, which was conducive to providing convenience for trade between the two places.

One thing led to another. Japan needed things from the Tang Dynasty, but it was unrealistic to ship them into the Yellow River by sea, as the ships were different.

Anchoring in Lianyungang was just convenient for the exchange of materials.

Another effect was the people's hearts. When the people of the Tang Dynasty saw the railways and trains, they naturally felt proud and looked at others differently.
