I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 288 Grandpa, why is it winter, father and mother are still beating mosquitoes in the room.

"Brothers!"

"Hey!"

"Come on!"

"Hey!"

"Eat after pulling this cart!"

"Hey!"

"What's for lunch!"

"Canned meat!"

"There is also a white steamed bun!"

"........."

Next to Jinanfu Railway Station, tens of thousands of people are working.

The workers chanted, and under the command of each craftsman, they pulled the stones and stones loaded on the sled to the designated position.

The weather is very cold, and the dripping water turns into ice, but the workers are working hard.

Especially not far away, the smoke from the kitchen and the scent that came out stimulated their enthusiasm even more.

The snow in Shandong this year is later than in previous years.

On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, heavy snow fell, and Shandong was covered with silver overnight.

In the past seasons when the mountains were covered by heavy snow, the common people would stay at home and rely on firewood to keep warm. The whole family huddled together, covered with old quilts, and survived the severe winter with difficulty.

But this year is different.

There is no food or drink at home. If you don't participate in the work organized by the court, the whole family will starve.

Although the imperial court has basic relief food, it is distributed according to the population, and it can only guarantee that they will not starve to death. If they want to feed the old family, they can only work in the cold winter.

And more importantly, when participating in the work of the imperial court, the imperial court has three meals a day, not only every meal is full, but also a meaty meal at noon.

In this way, the young and strong can eat at the construction site, and the family can save a lot of food.

This work-for-relief work is mainly responsible for leveling the land of Shandong, and the future railway trunk lines and traffic arteries.

Now the cement factory of the imperial court has been officially put into production. In addition to providing the trains there, there is still a lot of output from the factory.

After Zhu Zhangui's planning, the construction of cement roads started from Shandong, and at the same time, the train tracks should run through the entire Shandong.

In Zhu Zhangui's plan, Daming's future train track will have a well-shaped main line.

Vertically, it leads to Guangdong Chaozhou Prefecture in the south and reaches the bank of Yinma River in the north. If you want to build northward in the future, you can continue to lengthen it.

The main purpose of this railway line is to allow the imperial court's troops to quickly deploy to the north and south to deal with various accidents.

As long as this railway line continues, the transportation and logistics supply of the army will be greatly enhanced in the future.

Moreover, due to the short transportation time, a large amount of logistics food will not be consumed on the road, which greatly saves the court's expenses.

On the other side, the vertical line of the well starts from Langjuxu Mountain, and it is built horizontally to the south. As for how far it can be built, it depends on the ability of the Daming Craftsman Camp.

The reason for saying this is because most of this horizontal railway is in mountainous forest areas, and the difficulty of building it has increased several times.

The well-shaped upward and horizontal route starts from Turpan, passes through the land of Shaanxi and Shanxi, then reaches Shandong, and goes directly to Weihaiwei on the seashore.

The reason for building this road is that a large amount of coal will be needed after the train is opened. There is coal in Shanxi, and there are train tracks, which can facilitate the transportation of coal to various places in Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, this road is the last line of protection for Ming Dynasty. To the north are the Great Wall checkpoints. Once the grassland cannot be defended, this will be the last position of resistance for Ming Dynasty.

If train tracks are built here, it will be much more convenient for the Ming army to go into battle in the future.

The bottom starts from Fujian and leads horizontally to the plateau, completely connecting the East and West of the Ming Dynasty.

With this tic-tac-toe route, the entire Ming Dynasty will be completely under the control of the imperial court.

If there is a disturbance somewhere, the imperial court will send troops to suppress it, and it will arrive within a few days.

This tic-tac-toe line will be the foundation of Daming's country in the future.

With this route, no matter where accidents occur in the north, south, west, east, the imperial court can quickly grasp and control them.

In addition to railways, cement, asphalt roads, and even expressways are also in Zhu Zhangui's plan.

But now Daming has not yet exploited oil, and there is no asphalt for the time being, so Zhu Zhangui decided to lay cement roads first, and the first pilot he chose was Shandong.

Shandong has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. With a very convenient road to travel, the imperial court will have stricter control over this place.

Moreover, the central power of the imperial court will move to the north in the future. If the land of Shandong can be developed, it will also be of great benefit to the imperial court.

After all, isn’t it true that if you want to get rich, build roads first? If you don’t have any roads, you can’t get things out, and you can’t get rich if you want to be rich.

In addition, Shandong is close to the sea, and many seafood that could not be transported to the inland before can be quickly put into the inland market.

In this way, Shandong can also rely on the seafood economy to slowly recover from natural disasters.

There are also various agricultural product industries. Zhu Zhangui will also send agricultural experts from the artisan camp next year to sign in various parts of Shandong to guide the local people in planting.

The two-way development of seafood agriculture, Zhu Zhangui does not believe that within 10 years, the land of Shandong will not recover.

The only thing that makes Zhu Zhangui a little regretful is that it is not the best choice to build roads now because it is winter and it is time for the mountains to be closed by heavy snow.

But with so many victims, it's not a problem if they don't do anything just to feed them.

Once a person is full, he will think about some messy things in his mind, and at the same time, his heart is also the most empty time.

If at this time, the White Lotus Sect, which has just been suppressed a little bit, makes trouble again, it will be in big trouble.

Therefore, for the sake of the imperial court and the victims, Zhu Zhangui asked the victims to level the road first, and transport various necessary items such as stones and sand to various places, and wait for the next spring to start farming before officially starting the road construction project.

Zhu Zhangui's plan is to build a connected concrete road between several prefectures and cities in Shandong next year to ensure that the imperial court first controls several large cities.

Then the various counties below, according to the main roads of Fucheng, branched and connected together.

The road is smooth, and all aspects of business will gradually develop. Even if Shandong encounters difficulties again in the future, it can rely on itself to survive slowly.

"Woooooooo..."

The whistle of the train woke up Zhu Zhangui's thoughts. He looked back at the busy construction site in the distance, wrapped his cloak around his body, and boarded the train going south.

Since the opening of the train, the old man has accelerated the process of moving the capital.

Before there were no trains, all the departments of the imperial court had to be relocated by horse-drawn people. More importantly, the roads were not easy to walk, and it was better on sunny days. When it rained or snowed, it was a crime.

But it's different now. With the train, everything is very convenient.

Zhu Zhangui heard that in order to grab a seat on the train and load their own department's stuff, all the departments almost did it.

Xia Yuanji, an old man, used finances as a threat to forcefully occupy 1/3 of the carriage.

Although everyone was a little upset about this, they also understood in their hearts. After all, the Ministry of Accounting has the most things among all departments.

After less than half a month, the trains were running day and night, all the departments of the imperial court had almost been relocated, and Beiping had begun to slowly take over the command of Jinling.

However, in order to prevent the turmoil caused by moving the capital, the old man still let Zhu Pangpang stay in Jinling temporarily, and gave Zhu Pangpang the rights of the emperor.

In order to let his fat son not think too much, and take over the commanding power with peace of mind, the old man also spoke very caringly.

He will retire after working for one year next year, and you will be the throne the year after next. Anyway, it is yours, and you are only short of a title. If you take over as soon as possible, you will be used to it.

Poor Zhu Pangpang, who was so painful and happy, was left in Jinling by the old man, accompanied by a group of old guys, and forced to take over the rest of the work.

But fortunately there is a big festival this year, the old man didn't plan to celebrate the New Year in the north, he set off from Beiping yesterday, and the ministers who just moved there returned to Jinling before their buttocks were warmed up.

"His Royal Highness!"

Zhu Zhangui had just boarded the train, and the little snot waiting at the door quickly greeted him.

"Grandpa didn't rest!"

Zhu Zhangui greeted him with a smile, and asked if the old man had time now.

"The emperor just woke up after sleeping for a while, and is waiting for you inside!"

"Concubine Tai and the others are also inside."

Little Snot took a look, and Hu Yu, who formally commanded the guard battalion to carry stacks of files, replied with a smile, and at the same time stretched out his hand to open the door behind him.

As soon as the door of the carriage was opened, the joyful sounds of the little ones and the hearty laughter of the old man came from inside.

"Daddy!"

Just as Zhu Zhangui walked into the carriage, Zhu Miaoyan, who was reading a book under the supervision of his mother, rushed up with a cheer, threw away the book that made her drowsy, and threw herself into Zhu Zhangui's arms.

"Haha, my little padded jacket, do you miss Daddy?"

Picking up his daughter whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Zhu Zhangui laughed and kissed her hot red face.

"Hmm, I can imagine it!"

The little guy was also very excited, hugged Zhu Zhangui's neck tightly, and nodded his head vigorously.

"father!"

Zhu Zhangui hadn't stepped up yet, a tiger-headed little guy saw Zhu Zhangui walking in, his little tiger eyes glared excitedly, rushed up hurriedly, hugged Zhu Zhangui's thigh, Howled dryly.

At the same time, Chubby pointed at his mother, Hu Shanxiang, who was staring at him, as if complaining to Zhu Zhangui.

"Father, my mother makes me study every day, and it annoys me to death. I don't want to study. I want to learn how to ride a horse and fight like you. When I grow up, I want to be a general."

Zhu Zhangui, who was staggered by the little tiger's head and almost fell down, helplessly put his eldest daughter down, and stretched out his hand to lift the little tiger's head up.

"You bastard, you dare to sue your mother, I haven't asked you to beat Qi Zhen yet!"

The little tiger head was not afraid either, snorted and said: "If he doesn't listen to me, I'll beat him up. I'm his elder brother. He will do whatever I tell him to do. If he doesn't listen to me, I'll beat him up."

Zhu Zhangui was angry and funny, and slapped the little tiger's butt hard.

Then he stepped forward and picked up Zhu Qizhen who was hiding behind his mother and was secretly watching him.

"In the future, if your brother bullies you again, you'll beat him up and don't cry anymore, you know, you're a big man, you have to be a man, and our Zhu family can't be lazy."

Hearing what his father said, the little guy nodded vigorously, and directed at Zhu Qiyu, who was behind Zhu Zhangui, grinning at him, and waved his little fist, saying that I am not afraid that you dare to bully me again, and I will beat you Small appearance.

"Hahaha…"

The old man, who was watching the father and son fighting, couldn't help but think of the three sons when they were young, and laughed happily.

"Grandpa, these little guys didn't disturb your rest!"

After letting go of the third boy, Zhu Zhangui picked up the shy second and third daughters, and greeted the old man.

"No, I'm not tired. I'm very happy to be with these little guys!"

The old man took the two little great-granddaughters with a smile, picked up the snacks on the table, and handed one to each of them.

The grandfather and grandson didn't talk about things in Shandong, they just talked about homework and the future education of the children.

The old man handed over the matter of Shandong to Zhu Zhangui, so he never thought about taking care of it.

He is old and has sheltered the children from wind and rain all his life, so it is time for these children to make their own way.

"Okay, I heard that you didn't sleep all night last night and were busy all the time. You don't need to accompany me anymore. It's fine to have these little guys by my side. You can go to the carriage to rest."

The grandfather and grandson chatted for a while, and the old man saw the exhaustion between Zhu Zhangui's brows, and waved his hand with some distress, and asked Zhu Zhangui to rest first.

Zhu Zhangui was indeed a little sleepy, and after telling the little guys not to be naughty, he gave his wife Zhao Linger a wink, and with his blushing face, he walked to the rest room next door.

Zhao Ling'er took a sneak peek, as if the old man didn't notice the two's petty actions, he gave the other sisters a wink, and they quietly went to the next room.

"Grandpa, my mother and the others are gone, are they going to steal something delicious!"

Zhu Qiyu, who was biting his finger and frowning and learning how to play chess with the old man, left his father and mother alone, suspecting that his father brought some delicious food to his mother, and asked the old man angrily if it was true.

"Cough cough..."

The old man, who was dealing with several chessboards by himself, coughed a few times when he heard this, glanced at the door of the closed rest room next door, and seriously preached to a few little guys who came over curiously.

"There are mosquitoes in that room. Your father is very tired these days and needs to rest, but there are mosquitoes making noise, and your father can't sleep, so your mother and I went to help fight the mosquitoes."

The little guys nodded in amazement.

Zhu Qizhen thought of the scene where Xia Tian's mother helped him drive away mosquitoes, and said very seriously.

"Grandpa is right. I used to have a lot of mosquitoes when I was sleeping, and my mother drove me away with a fan."

"But grandpa, but I also heard from my mother that there will be no mosquitoes when it snows. You said that when the weather is cold, the mosquitoes will go back to their nests and sleep, and they will only come out in the spring! Why do you want them to come out?" To chase away mosquitos?"

"this…"

The old man opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain this question.

"It is indeed a mosquito, I heard a crackling sound over there!"

Just when the old man was thinking about how to explain, Zhu Miaoyan, whose ears were always very sensitive, suddenly tilted his ears, and excitedly told several people that she heard the voice.

Hearing this, the little fellows jumped up one after another, clamoring to go over and help his father drive away the mosquitoes.

The old man still wanted to hug a few more great-grandchildren, but he couldn't let these little guys disturb him, so he stood up hastily and stopped the little guys.

"Ahem...that little bastards, let's leave them alone and continue playing chess. Grandpa has pondered a novel routine in the past two days. I will teach you. Go back and play with your grandpa. When the time comes, your grandpa will be ruthless." Lose hard!"

After being coaxed and coaxed by the old man and Little Snotty, the little guys sat back at the chessboard, frowning and followed the old man to play chess.

In order to prevent the little guy from hearing what he shouldn't hear, the old man also asked the accompanying musicians to play soft music to cover up some unsuitable voices for children.

After more than half a month of running-in, the train has reached its maximum speed.

After a day and a night of traveling, the train arrived in Jinling safely.

The old man didn't let anyone greet him, and returned to the palace in a low-key manner.

At the gate of the palace, Zhu Zhangui first asked a few daughter-in-laws to take the children back, and he accompanied the old man to the Shang study.

"The Great Court Meeting will be held the day after tomorrow, are you planning to make trouble at that time?"

On the way to Shang's study, the old man looked around at the scenery of the palace that he had seen countless times, asked meaningfully, and supported Zhu Zhangui who walked forward.

Zhu Zhangui, who was helping the old man to go forward, nodded and replied: "The big sacrifice will be held in a few days, I don't think my great-grandfather wants to see those dirty bits and pieces, it's better to clean them up early, everyone can live A year of peace of mind."

"Hehe, An Xin Nian, since the day I became emperor, our family has never had an An Xin Nian!"

The old man chuckled and didn't say anything more about it.

Now that Sun Tzu has made a decision, it means that there is absolute evidence to prove that those people deserve to die.

He has already made a decision in his heart, no matter who it is tomorrow, as long as the evidence is convincing, it will be dealt with immediately and seriously.

The old man now has a deep understanding of Lao Zhu's determination to pave the way for Zhu Yunqi back then.

Now, like his father back then, he is silently paving the way for his grandson.

As for the son, well, that little fat man is too kind-hearted to do such a thing. If he doesn't solve it as soon as possible, it will be difficult to end when his grandson is delayed.

So it's still the same sentence, Zhu Di's descendants are all good people, let this old man bear the notoriety of this murderous tyrant.

PS: I feel a little uncomfortable now. I just got off work and I am going to go back to take a test. I hope I won’t win the bid?
I'm really restless, and I don't have any ideas, so I'll just write so much for now. If I'm at home after winning the bid, I'll write more to compensate everyone when I get better.
