Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 151 Hidden danger
It is an honor to be appreciated by the immediate superior, no, the boss of the department. For most people, as long as they are not too unreliable, there are shortcuts to official careers in the future.

However, for a guy like Zhu Changyuan, the biggest purpose of coming to the capital is of course not to be an official, and naturally it is impossible to take Liu Zunxian's praise to heart. He cupped his hands at Lord Shangshu and said, "My lord is a waste of an award."

Then he raised his hand to greet the workers, "Okay, just follow the method I just did, and make another small wall, the height of which should be equal to this."

The workers got another water tank along the small wall that had already been built, and started to get busy.

When the sun was rising, four small walls with the same top elevation were built, surrounding the base of the tower, like a square city wall.

The next thing to do is simple. It is nothing more than filling the space inside the small wall with earth and rocks next to it to form a horizontal plane, which is naturally a perfect foundation for the tower.

As for how to level in the middle, Zhu Changyuan didn't care anymore. Although the ancient society in this parallel world was backward, it wouldn't be so simple that he couldn't do such a simple thing as pulling a thread.

"Great kindness!" Xue Lianqian, a member of the Ministry of Industry, looked at the small square wall with a smile on his face, and said to Liu Zunxian: "My lord, the base of the tower can be completely leveled in just half a day, and we have completed the task assigned by the court." gone."

"Yes." Liu Zunxian was in a good mood, looked at the sun, and it was already noon, and said: "It seems that you don't need to stay overnight again today, this is all thanks to Chang Yuan." He stared at Zhu Changyuan with a smile After two seconds, he said: "You can do the rest. I'm a little tired, so go back and rest first."

Although Liu Zunxian was in his 60s, he was in good health, and he didn't feel sleepy after standing all morning. However, it was not a problem for a dignified second-rank official of the imperial court to always stare at the construction site with his subordinates, so he got up and went home.

Left servant Liu Zongzhou followed closely behind and chased him out.

Once the two Dashans left, the biggest official here was Xue Lianqian, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry.

Both Xia Congliang and Liu Yunzhou looked at him eagerly, Xue Lianqian knew what everyone meant, and said, "Don't look at me, Mr. Liu has just said that you don't need to stay here tonight."

Xia Congliang and the others breathed a sigh of relief. You must know that although Master Shangshu has explained, if Xue Lianqian, who is in charge of this matter, insists on keeping a few people on the construction site overnight, they have nothing to do.

Xue Lianqian said: "Don't slack off. Although you don't need to stay here at night, you still have to keep an eye on it in the afternoon, and go back after leveling the foundation."

After Xue Lianqian finished speaking, he left on his own.

Of course, as Yuanwailang, Li Ji couldn't stay at the scene, so naturally he also left.

So far, the remaining officials at the Yangtai Mountain construction site are Zhu Changyuan's three principals, and Yu Guang, the director.

On a general construction site, it is impossible for the principal to stay and take care of it. At most, the principal will come to inspect it occasionally, and the department under the Ministry of Industry will arrange people to take care of the site.But Yangyangshan Guanyin Pagoda is different. This is a major matter for the imperial court, and no one dares to be careless.

In the afternoon, due to the large number of people, the speed of moving stones, digging and filling soil was also extremely fast, and it was completed in the middle of the afternoon.

Zhu Changyuan took a chance and rode back home.

The time has come to the end of July, the weather is hot at noon, but it is a bit cooler at night.

Zhu Changyuan couldn't sleep after eating, so after putting his two wives to sleep, he sat in the study alone and started planning.

It's not planning to live in the capital.Because the biggest purpose of going to Beijing this time is not to be an official, but to collect treasures, cultural relics, and those extremely valuable things.

Next, the development of the entire island will require immeasurable wealth. To transport a large amount of scientific and technological materials from modern society, the money in Liu Guang's hands alone is not enough.

Not to mention, building a city requires at least several basic hardware facilities, such as houses, streets, ports, factories, and energy systems.

And so on, which one does not require a lot of wealth?

For example, to build a house, you need raw materials, and you need reinforced concrete. Steel bars can be purchased from modern society, but can cement be brought in from modern society little by little?

Obviously it is impossible.

If you have to fire it yourself, then you must consider the issue of building a cement factory.

To build a cement plant, the prerequisite is not only money, but also technology.The technology is easy to say, you can use the skill book to train; but what about the money?Even a small cement plant needs hundreds of millions of yuan in equipment, or even more.

As cities develop, they also need power plants, and energy lighting is inseparable from power plants.

However, now that Zhu Changyuan is empty-handed, why should he buy these things?

Therefore, there are tens of thousands of things, and in the final analysis, there is only one thing, which is money. If you have money, you can build a city, and if you build a city, you can save your life. Otherwise, there will be no bones left after seven years.

Even if Chongzhen didn't kill him and Huang Taiji didn't beat him, he would still be eaten by the system until there was no flesh and blood left.

"money!"

Zhu Changyuan wrote this word on a piece of white paper about a foot in size.

Backcountry, poor money.If you want a lot of wealth, the best place is the Great Ming Capital and Yanjing City.

More than half of the best curios, jewelry, and historical documents of the entire Ming Empire are here.

Putting down the pen, closing his eyes and meditating, after thinking for a long time, Zhu Changyuan still shook his head with a wry smile, and muttered to himself: "It seems that if you want to accumulate wealth quickly, you still need to transport some strange things from modern society. Only in this way can we exchange for antique treasures."

Suddenly, Zhu Changyuan frowned and stood up from the chair, tiptoed to the door of the study, squeezed the door through a gap, looked outside, and jumped suddenly.

I don't know when, some uninvited guests came to my yard!
Flying fish suit, embroidered spring knife.

Jinyiwei!
Zhu Changyuan took a deep breath, and thought to himself: Nima, when did you get into trouble with these bastards? It's broken, it's bad, and there will be no good life in the future.

Just as this thought came to my mind, I quietly opened the door and stepped out.

The guards in brocade clothes in the courtyard were very bold, they watched Zhu Changyuan come out of the study without any fear, one of them said softly, "Master Zhu is really hard, I can't sleep in the middle of the night!"

Zhu Changyuan snorted coldly, and cupped his hands, "I don't know what the adults are doing late at night to visit." He didn't think that he would commit crimes when he first entered Beijing. The biggest possibility was that these guys were blatantly monitoring him.

Huh!No, there's no need to show up to spy on me.

While thinking about it, the leader said: "Your Excellency, don't panic, I waited to come here according to your noble's order, please come over to talk to me, Your Excellency."

Zhu Changyuan calmed down, and suddenly felt that it was extremely inappropriate for him to bring his wife to take office.

They are still too young, just like today's situation, if Jin Yiwei is here to arrest people, how many people in this courtyard can escape?What will happen if one day she turns against the court?
The fish died and the net broke.

That's a joke, the net will not break if the fish dies.Even if Lana and Yu Min are trained to be masters against thousands of people, can they stop the rain of arrows from thousands of people?
I can pull away the system and escape, but what about others?It is estimated that it will become meat sauce.

Thinking of this, my back felt chilly, and cold sweat dripped down my face.I really want to thank this group of Jinyiwei today, they reminded myself: It is okay to bring your wife, but you must be prepared for a surefire escape route.

It doesn't matter if he offends Liu Yunzhou today, because at most he is only the elder brother of the minister of the Ministry of Industry, but with his bad temper, what if he offends a powerful official one day?What if offended the royal relatives?What if he offends the emperor?
Zhu Changyuan didn't dare to think about it anymore!
"Ha ha!"

The leader of Jinyiwei, seeing that Zhu Changyuan didn't answer for a long time, thought he was frightened by the behavior of his own people, and said kindly: "My lord, don't panic, I'm afraid to disturb your family in the middle of the night, so I waited for brothers to do this in this way." Come in, please don't take offense, sir."

He thought that Zhu Changyuan was scared.

Zhu Changyuan nodded and said, "Who is looking for me?"

The leader of Jin Yiwei said: "Master Zhu, don't ask, you will know when you go." Afraid that Zhu Changyuan would think too much, he said again: "Master Zhu, don't worry, we are all officials, so naturally we are not embarrassing you."

Zhu Changyuan thinks about it too, if these guys want to make things difficult for him, they probably won't be so polite, maybe there are more than five or six people here.

But who the hell wants to talk to himself?There are many officials in the capital, but who can mobilize Jin Yiwei to find him?

Is it the emperor?
Jinyiwei is the emperor's private property, and other people should have no right to transfer it.

But why did Nima Zhu Youjian want me to talk to me so late, it's really inexplicable.

Zhu Changyuan was inexplicably nervous. If he offended this guy, it would be difficult. Chongzhen in history was notoriously suspicious.

"Okay, sir, please lead the way." After Zhu Changyuan finished speaking, he looked around again. After making sure that there were no outsiders, he followed them all the way out of the courtyard, and then walked in one direction.

The capital city at night was also bustling, but the group of guards in Jinyi was not in the mood to drag Zhu Changyuan to the streets, they only picked some remote and dark alleys to walk, and after about half an hour, they came to the gate of a deep house compound.

Zhu Changyuan looked up and saw that there were two big red lanterns hanging under the corners of the eaves of the tall gatehouse, and a cluster of torches were burning inside, illuminating the gate brightly.

The gate is wide and tall, with a beast head inlaid under the knocker, and outside, on the stone steps not far from Zhu Changyuan's body, two mighty stone lions stand on both sides of the gate.

And on the door plate directly above Zhu Changyuan's head, the word "Zhang's House" was written.

Zhu Changyuan noticed that, unlike the house number, the words "Uncle Xingyang" were written on the lantern.

It became clear that the owner of this family should have been conferred the title of Earl of Xingyang.
