The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 432 What is the real behind-the-scenes operation!

The lingering sound surrounds the beam, and the emperor personally praises it.

The memory of Daming Palace was undoubtedly recognized.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a lack of cultural and leisure activities, coupled with the lack of wisdom among the people and the lack of an online presence that could promote itself, so even if Messi came here, he could only cultivate land and move bricks.

Even if your talent is earth-shattering, but there is no opportunity to learn and cultivate, no channel to show it, there is no use for it.

The memory of Daming Palace is an excellent piece of music, and there is still an opportunity to play it to everyone in the Hanyuan Hall, and it was even written into the notes of daily life by the historian.

This piece of music is destined to become an existence on par with King Qin's Breaking the Array in this world.

With the end of the movement, the atmosphere in Hanyuan Hall reached its peak.

When Li Er raised his wine glass, everyone stood up and responded, drinking the glass to the fullest!
We drank wine, ate food, danced, and listened to music.

Next, it's time to get down to business.

"My lords."

Li Er, who returned to the dragon chair, raised his hand and shook off his sleeves, and glanced at the thousands of people in the Hanyuan Hall, "There is a military weapon in the Tang Dynasty, and it is the railway!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone nodded in approval.

As long as the railway is not a sand sculpture, you can know its terrifying meaning and ability.

"I don't need to say anything more about the magical effect of the railway." Li Er, with a smile on his face, smiled at Empress Changsun next to him, "Everyone who has sat here agrees."

"Hahaha~~~"

Not at all surprised, everyone in Hanyuan Hall laughed very cooperatively.

After some harmony between the monarch and his ministers, under the impatient eyes of many people who were already waiting, Li Er finally dragged the topic to the main topic.

"Everyone knows that the construction of the railway is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. It is a pity that the construction of the railway is costly, and the court does not have so much money to continue to promote it."

Speaking of this, Li Er glanced playfully at those young people from aristocratic families who were eager to try. "After discussing with your family, I decided to open a few railway lines and build them with private funds. Once they are completed, they can be operated for 20 years." right."

The term management right was first proposed by Li Yunze.

With the rapid profitability of Changsheng Railway, the word spread very quickly.

As for Li Er's statement that the railway was built with private funds, it is naturally impossible for the folks to refer to the common people.

For things like building railways, even if it’s just a mile, it’s easy to start with thousands of guan, and the common people can’t afford it by selling pots and irons. Moreover, in this era of Tang Dynasty, there are actually many people who can’t even afford pots at home, let alone smash them. up.

The so-called folks who can afford money are actually only aristocratic families that have inherited and accumulated for many years, as well as emerging military aristocratic groups.

After telling the general things, Li Er picked up the wine bowl.

The next job is Du Ruhui's.

Originally, Fang Xuanling was supposed to do this job, but Fang Xuanling went to the Jiangdu Ship Repair Yard, Salt Field, etc. to handle errands.

As for Changsun Wuji, because the Changsun family also joined the consortium organized by the nobles, Du Ruhui was finally in charge.

"This time, the imperial court intends to build two railways from Chang'an City to Lanzhou, and from Chang'an City to Weizhou. After completion, except for the imperial troop transport, all operating expenses will be arranged by the contractor itself."

Du Ruhui took a breath, and then said, "Since the investment is too large to be afforded by the Leisurely Family, you can form a group to participate."

This is nonsense, the relevant information has been revealed early on, and the formation of the parties has already been settled. Now, it is here to compete.

The railway from Chang'an City to Lanzhou can actually be called the first phase of the Western Region Railway Project.

It can be said that it is built along the Silk Road.

People from aristocratic families are not stupid, in fact, they are smarter than most people in the world.

In fact, they knew very well that from Chang'an City to Lanzhou, it was directly parallel to the Silk Road, and the imperial court would obviously vigorously manage the land in the Western Regions, so this route would definitely make a lot of money.

As for the route from Chang'an City to Weizhou, although it is said to pass through the treasured Tianhua of Sichuan, it is still slightly inferior to the route to Lanzhou.

Its biggest attraction is the lowest quotation offered by the imperial court, which is much cheaper than the route to Lanzhou.

For the line from Chang'an City to Lanzhou, the imperial court set a guaranteed price of [-] guan per mile.

But for the line from Chang'an City to Victoria, the guaranteed price was [-] guan per mile.

The difference in cost is huge.

As for why the cost of going to Victoria is actually lower than going to Lanzhou, this is of course a trap set by Li Yunze for those aristocratic families.

There are many smart people among the aristocratic families, but no matter how smart they are, they will not know the specific cost of the railway under different terrain and climate conditions.

It can be said that in the entire Tang Dynasty, no one except Li Yunze knew about it.

Li Er had asked about this matter before, and Li Yunze's response was, "Use a cheap price to lure them in first, and then after repairing for a while, say that the investment is not enough, and then let them invest more. If you don't vote, before It’s all in vain. You don’t need too much at one time, but you can ask for more times. These things can be written into the contract documents, just make it a little more obscure and leave a hole.”

What is a profiteer, this is it.

However, the matter is not over yet, Li Yunze has to let everyone know that there is no darkest in this world, only darker.

With Du Ruhui announcing the start of bidding, Changsun Wuji, on behalf of the military aristocratic honorable group, and the head of the Cui family, on behalf of the aristocratic family group, sealed their respective bids in envelopes and handed them over to Du Ruhui.

That's right, this time the method of bidding was adopted, and it was the easiest hidden bid to operate in the dark.

Du Ruhui handed the things to Li Er, and Li Er directly tore them apart to watch, and announced the final result.

After reading the quotations for the two lines on both sides, Li Er smiled and said, "The price of the railway from Chang'an City to Lanzhou City is 660 per mile for the Guandong Mission."

Most of the aristocratic families are from the land of Kanto, and their consortium is simply called the Kanto Group.

After a pause, Li Er, with a half-smile, then announced, "The Guanzhong Tuan's offer is 660 liuguan per mile. The winner has already been divided. The railway line from Chang'an City to Lanzhou City will be funded and built by the Guanzhong Tuan."

The so-called Guanzhong regiment is naturally the nobles with the emerging military nobles as the main body.

After hearing the result, everyone cheered and shouted with great excitement, which was in stark contrast to the dejected representatives of aristocratic families not far away.

The aristocratic family thought it was unbelievable that they were only short of six pennies!
But if they could see the paper in Li's second hand at this time, they would be surprised to see that the quotation number on the paper of Guan Zhongtuan was simply blank!

What is black, this is called black.

As the referee, Li Er went off in person, how could the aristocratic family play with others?

Signaling everyone to be safe and calm down for the time being, Li Er continued to announce the result of Chang'an City to Victoria.

"For the railway from Chang'an City to Victoria, the price quoted by the Guandong Mission is [-] yuan per mile."

As soon as this remark came out, many people laughed out loud.

Obviously, the real goal of the Kwantung Regiment formed by aristocratic families is the route to Lanzhou, and even the follow-up plan to the Western Regions has been arranged.

The line to Victoria is just a random thought.

After all, the road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky.

It is really not an easy task to build a railway here.Moreover, in such a difficult place, the reserve price is so cheap, which really makes people doubtful.

Then they will soon understand that there is no shamelessness, only more shamelessness.

Li Er quickly continued to read "Offer from Guanzhong Tuan. No, they didn't make an offer."

The entire Hanyuan Hall was noisy.

I really never expected that such an operation would exist!
Hand over the two pieces of paper to your confidant servant, and your own servant will fill in the numbers on the back to avoid any possible accidents.

"Congratulations, everyone."

Li Yunze, who was full of smiles, walked up to many aristocratic family members who were still in a daze and said, "This is a line flowing with gold. It really allows you to pick up treasures."

This time the aristocratic family's group operation was led by Qiwang of the five surnames, and all the heads of the families who came were able to make up their minds.

Soon the Patriarch of the Zheng Clan in Xingyang asked Li Yunze, "I also ask Uncle Lan Tian to clear up the confusion for us."

"Everyone, the line from Chang'an City to Weizhou. It is Chencang (Baoji), Liangzhou (Hanzhong), Lizhou (Guangyuan), Mianzhou (Mianyang), Yizhou (Chengdu), Songzhou (Wenchuan) , Weizhou (Songpan.)”

Li Yunze clapped his hands, and said sincerely, "Look, everyone! This is the fertile land of the Tang Dynasty. If the railway is built, it will only be the personnel and goods traveling between Shu and Guanzhong. , is enough for you to lie on the sea of ​​gold and silver and earn him 20 years!"

What he said was really not fooling, it was indeed the truth.

Before Kuodan slaughtered Shu and killed tens of thousands of people in Shu, Shu had always been a land rich in treasures and treasures.

Originally, the traffic was difficult, but once the traffic problem can be solved, of course, it can make a lot of money.

The only thing wrong is that Li Yunze didn't tell them that he wanted to build a railway to Shu, and the cost would be several times that of the plain.

Their quotation of three thousand and one mile can be repaired to Hanzhong even if they die.

In the follow-up, they will be asked to continue to spend a lot of money to repair the railway.

If you don't pay, then I'm sorry, this railway line will be taken back by the court, and it will have nothing to do with you from now on, and the previous investment is of course in vain.

Anyway, there is still a long time to start fighting with Tubo, so we can slowly repair it.

The reason why Li Yunze came forward to describe this is because only the construction company under Li Yunze's command has the experience in building railways and various skills and equipment in the entire Tang Dynasty.

As for other people, even the Tang court didn't have the ability.

Not to mention anything else, just an I-shaped rail, except for Li Yunze, no one in the entire Tang Dynasty could make it!

Regardless of whether it is the Guanzhong Group or the Guandong Group, all they can do is pay Li Yunze and ask him to build it.

When it is actually being built, no one can intervene.

As all parties signed and pledged on the contract, and the prime minister attached it, the emperor used his seal and announced it to the world.

Even if this thing is done.

If anyone wants to repent, does it feel that the horizontal knife in the emperor's hand is not good?
