Most of this huge team heading to the Luoshui Bridge are officials and officials who ride horses, as well as escorts and entourages, but Li An and several important ministers sit in the comfortable bus and walk to the whole team. At the forefront.

The road from Luoyang City Railway Station to the Luoshui Bridge is a wide official road. Although the concrete pavement has not been laid, the dirt road is basically flat, even the depth of the rut is almost the same, and it is obviously often maintained by someone.

In order to accompany the officials sent by Imperial Court to inspect the Luoshui Bridge together, the local officials of Luoyang City got up early to go to Luoyang Railway Station and departed with Li An entire group.

“This is Assistant Minister Guo’s first time in a steam car! How does it feel?”

Li An comfortably leaned on the seat, looking towards Guo Xuji opposite.

“It’s more comfortable than the carriage and wider than the carriage, but it’s a bit louder and a bit noisy.”

Guo Xuji speak frankly and gave a very pertinent answer.

Li An nodded, said with a smile: “Assistant Minister Guo said that this noise is indeed a bit louder, but there is no way! The noise of the steam engine is relatively large. In the future, it may be possible to perform some noise reduction treatment to make the noise It doesn’t sound so harsh. “

“Haha! That would be better. By the way, after the Luoshui Bridge is closed, the next step is to build the Canal Bridge. After celebrating the Luoshui Bridge, can we go to the location of the Grand Canal Bridge to see the situation.”

Guo Xuji asked.

“Of course you can go over and look at it. However, the Luoshui Bridge needs to go one hour. If you go to the Grand Canal, you have to go another hour. I am afraid that time is too late!”

Li An means that the Grand Canal is dark. After all, Luoshui Bridge is more than 50 miles from Luoyang City Railway Station, and the location of the Grand Canal Bridge is about 50 li away from the Luoshui Bridge. Halfway through the water.

The width of this river is not narrow, and a railway bridge is about to be built soon. However, Li An no longer intends to build a double-layer bridge. One layer is enough. As long as the bridge deck is built wider, the railway goes in the middle, pedestrians Just walk 2 sides with the horse and horse, separated by a fence in the middle.

Of course, this one-layer bridge is relatively ordinary, far less impressive than the two-story bridge, and there is no need to send people to stay in the future, nor to collect tolls. In Li An’s thinking, like Luoshui This kind of river is a small river, it doesn’t need to invest too much, it is enough. Anyway, this river is relatively short, and the water transportation and water transportation are not used. Ordinary fishing boats can pass through a small bridge hole. Raise the bridge deck.

On the road from Luoyang to Laizhou, there will be dozens of large and small rivers, and only the ones with the widest river surface and the longest watershed are worth spending huge amounts of money to build a double-layer grand bridge, an ordinary small There is no need to invest too much in the river, it is sufficient to make the single-layer bridge wider.

“If that is the case, then forget it! After the Canal Bridge is built, we will use the opportunity of inspection to take a look.”

As soon as it was too late, Guo Xuji decided to give up the opportunity to visit the Grand Canal and instead go next time.

The journey of more than 50 miles, arrived within an hour, and across a long distance, the ministers saw the magnificent bridge across Luoshui 2 shore.

At this time, the basic works of the bridge have been completed, only the last concrete deck has not been installed, and this is deliberately not installed, just wait for Li An and other ministers to arrive, and then put the last piece in front of them. Install the bridge deck.

Li An and several ministers successively acted together to give encouragement and praise to all the builders who participated in the bridge building, and greeted them on behalf of Emperor, let them continue their efforts to build more bridges for the Great Tang Empire .

“Minister Li, it’s almost time to start.”

A small official responsible for building the bridge project reminded him.

“Okay, the bridge closes immediately.”

After a series of orders, several hundred craftsmen began to get busy, and very easily installed the last bridge deck in place. At this point, the Luoshui Bridge was fully penetrated, and the style was displayed in front of everyone.

“Assistant Minister Guo, please see, this bottom layer is dedicated to the train. When the rails are paved, the train can pass from here. The road is above. Pedestrians and horses and horses must walk on it. Interference can avoid danger and increase efficiency. “

Li An introduced as he walked forward, a group of officials followed, and gathered in small groups to talk about the style and grandeur of the Luoshui Bridge, and expressed various views.

The railway passage on the 1st floor was only one mile away, and it soon came to an end. After that, a large number of officials continued to move forward, from the approach bridge on the other side to the 2nd floor bridge.

The length of the 2nd floor bridge is 2 miles, mainly because the approach bridge is too long, doubling the total length, the slope of the approach bridge is relatively slow, and there is no pressure to walk up.

And when everyone stood in the middle of the 2nd floor bridge, they felt much more refreshing than the 1st floor. It felt like standing on the top of the highest mountain and overlooking the mountains.

Many ministers are very talented, and from time to time have heard someone appoint a poem, of course, in this case, Li An will choose to hide far, so as not to expose his literary cultivation.

“Minister Li, the Luoshui Bridge has been closed, the next step is to build a more grand Grand Canal Bridge, but there is a Luoshui in the middle, why not build the Boshui Bridge first.”

Guo Xuji looked at the white water in the distance and suddenly asked.

Li An said with a smile: “Who said no, the Bishui Railway Bridge will be built together with the Grand Canal Railway Bridge, except that the Bishui Bridge is designed as a single layer and the deck is not wide, can’t be considered What bridge, so I did n’t mention that ’s all, otherwise, we will go over to see now, anyway, it ’s not far away, only 20 li or so, the steam car is only one hour away. ”

“Okay! But wait a minute and let This Official blow the wind for a while.”

Guo Xuji has not experienced enough yet, and continues to stand in the middle of the bridge, gazing at the white water in the distance.

After a moment, the steam bus drove up to the bridge and carried a few officials, such as Li An, and went straight to the water outside 20 li or so. Dozens of guards followed the horses, and most of the officials continued to stay on the bridge to watch beautiful scenery all around.

Regarding the drawings of the Bishui Bridge, Li An had already drawn it. After arriving in Bishui, Li An took out the drawings and re-examined the building address of Bishui, and further determined that his plan was Correct and excellent.

After handing over the drawings to Guo Xuji and several people for viewing, the crowd returned to Luoshui Bridge by car and took the capital to the minister to return to Luoyang City Railway Station, preparing to take the night train and return to Chang’an City.

The noble train has been lying at Luoyang City Railway Station. After the ministers got on the bus, Chang’an City was started overnight. Of course, due to the weak night light, the speed was reduced by half. It is estimated that you can return to Chang before the noon of the second day. ‘an City.

Dinner was eaten on the train. Many officials were tired for a day. After dinner, they lay on the soft bed and fell asleep. The little officials and their entourage could only lie on the soft seat for a nap and feel soft. The seat is more comfortable and you can fall asleep when lying down.

At noon on the second day, the train returned to Chang’an City Railway Station on time, everyone got off in sequence, Li An and Guo Xuji got off together, and went to the Ministry of Industry ’s Yamen. Some necessary guidance.

“Minister Li, come back so soon.”

Chen Xuanli walked past the gate of the Ministry of Industry and happened to meet Li An who walked out of the gate of the Ministry of Industry.

“Great General, what a coincidence?”

Li An was stunned.

“Minister Li, you said the day before yesterday that when you want to draw a World map, when can you draw it?”

Chen Xuanli asked with concern.

Li An was very puzzled and opened the mouth and said: “What’s wrong with the Great General, so anxious to find me, just to see the map? When were you so interested in the map.”

“I do n’t hide Minister Li. After I went back that day, I talked to some of my subordinates about the overseas World. The result reached You Majesty ’s ear in less than a day. Your Majesty asked me for a picture. Pushed on me. “

Chen Xuanli said helplessly.

“It turns out that this is not the case. Great General does not have to worry. The map has been drawn. It is in the other courtyard outside the city. I will go back and get it.”

“Minister Li, I will go with you, and I want to see the map earlier.”

Chen Xuanli demanded urgently.

“Okay! Follow you, go.”

Li An and Chen Xuanli drove towards Li An ’s other courtyard outside the city. Chen Xuanli remained in the main hall and Li An ran back to the main house.

“Master.”

“Master.”

“Husband, are you coming back so soon?”

Xiaoyin and Xiaomeng, as well as Yan Ruyu are copying the map, and when Li An returns, they all stand up.

“Huh, you are copying the map, how much has you drawn?”

Li An asked.

“Husband, we have copied 3 copies, and these 3 copies are being copied.”

Yan Ruyu answered softly.

“Wow, so fast, I just walked for more than 2 days, you copied 3 copies, and show me quickly.”

Li An is overjoyed, which is actually quite normal. The reason why Li An took a half a month to draw a map is because only a short period of time can be taken out per day, and half a month does not add up very long. In addition, Li An is Drawing out of thin air requires constant thinking and modification, but Yan Ruyu 3 people are copying the map, as long as the bottle gourd draws the scoop, the speed is of course much faster than Li An.

“Husband, look, these three, which one is the best?”

Yan Ruyu and Xiaoyin Xiaomeng hung up all three maps copied, and let Li An comment.

“Okay, it’s very good, the copy is in place, so that’s it.”

Li An was overjoyed, reaching for one of the pictures and packing it up, ready to take it away.

“Husband, haven’t you said which copy is the best?”

Yan Ruyu pulled on Li An’s sleeves, not resigned.

“The three maps are very good, and Wife and Great General are still waiting for me in the main hall? Come back and make trouble, be good.”

Li An suddenly kissed Yan Ruyu on the forehead, scaring Yan Ruyu to take a step back, and Li An immediately put away the map and strode toward the main hall.

“Don’t laugh, then copy.”

Yan Ruyu covered his face with both hands, gave Xiaoyin and Xiaomeng a blank look, and continued to copy the map for Li An.

“Great General, this is the World Map I drew, please see.”

Li An first opened the map and let Chen Xuanli glance at it, then put away the map and rushed to Daming Palace with Chen Xuanli.

“Everyone, Minister Li and General Chen outside the palace begging to see that they are offering maps.”

A small Court Eunuch walked into the great hall to report the situation.

“Hurry and let them enter the temple.”

Li Longji greeted him directly.

“No need to be saluted, Minister Li has the map in his hand.”

Li Longji stopped 2 people from the courtesy and looked towards the map in Li An’s hands.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, This Small Official is a map in hand, recording the mountains, lakes, oceans, and islands in the world. Please visit Your Majesty.”

Li An nodded, together with Chen Xuanli, slowly opened the map.

“This, this is the world map?”

Li Longji saw the familiar Great Tang territory, as well as the nearby Tibet and Turks, but there are more large areas that he has not heard of.

“Yes, Your Majesty, the world known by This Small Official, is on this map.”

Li An answered yes.

“Come here, hang this map, I want to take a good look.”

Li An and Chen Xuanli were not stable, and they could not watch the map well. After hanging up, it was more convenient to watch.

“It turns out that the world is so big, my Great Tang is just a corner of land that’s all, eh, Minister Li, how do you know so much, you have been to these places?”

Li Longji sighed, then looked towards Li An in doubt, at Li An’s age, how could it have been to so many places? But if you haven’t been there, how did you draw this map?

“Back to Your Majesty, this is the map I got from an expert when Grandpa was hiding in White Wolf Mountain. This Small Official has seen it a few times, so I remember it in my heart.”

Li An is helpless and can only lie.

“Hey, there are always some experts who are reluctant to contribute to the Imperial Court, but Minister Li really believes that this map is real?”

Li Longji continued to ask.

“Your Majesty, This Small Official used to doubt it too. However, this expert marked the map so carefully. Many of the places we already know are correct. Why are these extra parts all false? Moreover, In the future, when a large steam ship is built, it will send a soldier and horse to find these places according to the map, can’t it prove the authenticity?

Li An said seriously.

Regarding the dispatch of sea vessels to explore the unknown land, Li An needs no words. He believes that Chen Xuanli has connected the railway to Laizhou and told Li Longji about the construction of a large steam ship in a bay in Laizhou.

“Well, since that’s the case, I think this map is true, but what is going on with these blank spaces?”

Li Longji also showed great interest in most of the blank land.
