"This is nothing. When the embankments on both sides of the river are built in the future, King Wu plans to build a bridge across the river!" Fang Keqin said.
hiss!
Everyone gasped, not one of them could believe it.
"Master Fang, I can understand building a dam, but look at how wide the river is. What kind of bridge can stand firm in this fast river?"
And didn’t you just say that boats should be used on this river? How can we build a bridge if we have to take a boat? "
"Yes, Master Fang, we are not doubting His Highness King Wu, but what he said is a bit whimsical!"
Everyone said politely.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he called it ridiculous. If the width of the Huaihe River was only one-third, he would still believe it, but the width was at least 150 feet.
And the Huaihe River is not a small river. Even in the dry season, the flow of the river is very large.
Unless you cut off the river, it's absolutely impossible.
Fang Keqin's face also felt a little burning, but he thought of the drawings he saw and said, "To be honest, King Wu has already designed the drawings of the bridge.
After the flood control period is over and the embankments are repaired, construction will begin. The bridge will be completed and directly connect the north and south. Boats can pass under the bridge and people can walk on the bridge.
In the future, there will be no obstacles to connecting the north and south! "
Everyone was just listening to fantasy.
Boats go under the bridge and people walk on the bridge. So how high and big is the bridge?
Is that something that can really be made by humans?
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but secretly shake their heads.
But even if Zhu Jun can't build a bridge, with this embankment, there is no need to worry about the dam breaking.
Moreover, the conditions given by Fang Keqin are still very tempting.
If you buy a property here, the land will be given to you for free. Not only that, it will also be tax-free and a monument will be erected. If you are short of funds, you can also ask the prefect's Yamen for help. The Wu Prince's Palace will act as a guarantee, and you can borrow money with little or even interest-free interest.
However, it is limited to members of the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, there are conditions, and priority is given to recruiting locals.
No withdrawal is allowed within ten years. Once you withdraw, it will be a breach of contract. The prefect's Yamen will join forces with the Wu Palace to sue the defaulters.
They had already been exposed to these in Yingtian and were not in conflict with them.
Overall, it's a win-win situation.
At present, many people have agreed to invest here.
Fang Keqin was overjoyed and said quickly: "It's easy to talk about. Which piece of land you are interested in, and what kind of industry you want to invest here, write a plan."
You can pass without any problem. "
After everyone inspected it, they also seriously considered whether to invest here. Those who were ready to invest also wrote applications according to the template of the prefect's Yamen.
If you don't understand, there is someone from the yamen waiting to explain.
Returning to the magistrate's yamen, Fang Keqin sighed, "Your Highness is right. Sitting in the yamen at a high level is not a good official. Only going out, bringing in people, and prospering the place is what an official should do."
Fang Keqin felt that he had touched the true meaning of being an official, and he felt ashamed of his former nobility.
That's just false innocence.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang left the State Guesthouse and walked on the streets of Fengyang, looking at the newly built Fourteenth Square, which was filled with dust.
There are craftsmen and...soldiers from the Huaixi Governor's Mansion.
"The family relationship between soldiers and civilians is indeed a love between fish and water!" Zhu Yuanzhang thought of the memorial submitted by Zhu Jun and couldn't help but laugh, "But, how much money does these fourteen squares cost?
Fengyang is still building roads, traveling five miles a day, and building dams along the river. How much money is this? Is the little money given by the court enough?
And... does he really plan to build the bridge across the river?
Oh, we also forgot that there are more than 10,000 villagers who are raised by him in the Zhongdu Palace.
The food, drinks, clothes, clothes, headaches and fever are all money. "
At this moment, even Zhu Yuanzhang felt a headache. How much money did the court receive?
He knew very well, how long could this money last?
That bastard will never speak in order to fulfill the bet.
"Master Zhu, do you want to go into the palace and have a look?" Liu Ji asked.
"No, keep walking, we want to see the school and the hospital!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Liu Ji followed Zhu Yuanzhang silently. To be honest, after following him around for a while today, it felt like he had entered another country.
It's hard to imagine how Zhu Jun did all this.
The prince's talents are outstanding, but there are traces to follow.
There is a shadow of Zhu Yuanzhang in his work.
But there was no trace of the two of them in what Fengyang did.
Have you ever seen the prefect standing outside the city to greet a business delegation?
Have you ever seen the prefect let merchants stay and invest in order to attract investment, eat and drink at public expense, and receive them personally?
An official is an official, and a businessman is a businessman.
What's more, Fang Keqin is an extremely honest and upright official.
But he bowed his proud head.
Liu Ji wanted to ask him, where is your arrogance and nobleness?
Have you fed the dogs?
He ignored Song Lian's attempts to win over him.
It is simply unreasonable to treat a mad king with special eyes and even take his words as a guideline!
Zhu Yuanzhang asked all the way and finally found out where Fengyang Fenjin Hall was.
It used to be Wu Lang's Huaiyin Marquis Mansion, but now the sign has been removed and it has become a school.
There were soldiers guarding the door, and the sound of reading could be heard inside.
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to go over and have a look, but as soon as he got closer, he was scolded by a soldier at the door: "During class, no one is allowed in!"
Jiang Huan was furious and wanted to take out the sign of the Arch Guard, but was stopped by Zhu Yuanzhang, "Forget it, let's go to the hospital!"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, not angry at all, but left with a smile. Not far away was Xue Yang's mansion, which was converted into Fengyang Hospital!
No one is allowed to enter here, and there is an endless stream of people coming in and out.
"Oh, it's amazing. Once this medicine is taken, my high fever goes away!"
"That's not what happened. My Huzi has been burning for three days. He is all confused from the fever. He is holding the baby and crying, and his eyes are almost blind from crying.
I went to a doctor and gave him medicine, but it didn’t help at all!
As a result, I carried him over here and gave the injection. Within an hour, the child was sweating, became energetic, and no longer had a fever! "A middle-aged woman was holding a three- or four-year-old child in her arms. Her eyes were still a little red and swollen, as if she had cried.
"Hey, I heard the doctor at the hospital say that this medicine is very expensive, and one injection costs several taels of silver. It's because His Highness King Wu took pity on ordinary people like me, knowing that I can't afford to see a doctor, so it only costs a hundred cents.
The hospital can't even take back the money for this hundred yuan! "An old man next to him said: "Hey, His Highness King Wu is really a bodhisattva who saves the suffering. Since he came to Fengyang, the lives of our people have become better day by day! "
As soon as these words came out, the patients sitting next to them couldn't help but nod, "It would be great if the imperial court could place His Highness King Wu's fief in Fengyang. In this way, we Fengyang people can all live a good life!"
