In fact, building a restaurant has limited improvement in national strength, but it can indeed benefit some people. So Zhu Houzhao still agreed.
Of course he also wants to build roads, preferably a military highway to allow strategic materials to reach the front line directly. But the technology of hardening pavement and the important material cement are high-tech products that he cannot produce at all. Of course, in ancient times, burned bricks were used to pave roads, but the smoothness of the road was so rough that driving on a carriage could knock someone's entire meal out of the way.
"Based on your idea of building a restaurant, I thought deeply about it. If possible... would you like to try to build it a little higher? You go to the academy to find a man named Zuo Zonglu, and you give him money to hire him. , let him help you with the mechanics."
"Silver, I'm not afraid of flowers. But if it's too high, I'm afraid..."
"No living person should be suffocated to death by peeing. You can leave the highest level to me. Does anyone want to compete with me?"
But Zhu Houzhao didn't dare to go up. If these mechanics laymen built an unstable thing and disintegrated freely, the gain would outweigh the loss.
What he was thinking was that human subjective power was not enough to promote any technological progress. Just like he always emphasized the importance of arithmetic and studying things with the people in the academy, but after working on it for a long time, they could not find any direction.
The power of the market is actually powerful.
For example, if Mei Huaigu made this high-rise building popular and the court encouraged it from the policy level, then money would naturally drive people to imitate, surpass, and build taller buildings. At this time, the basic knowledge of building high-rise buildings will be required, thus forming a driving force.
Maybe when he was alive, he still couldn't see any obvious effect. But it is of great significance to the entire Chinese nation.
In fact, similar technology development driven by market forces already exists in the South.
Mei Kejia was ordered to build a shipyard. He was still qualified to do business at sea. Naturally, he wanted a larger ship. Not to mention safety, he also transported a lot of goods. He used to make three trips, but after changing the ship, he only used Isn't it good to make two trips? The extra space can also be used to store some weapons.
It turns out that Chinese people are accustomed to doing things based on experience, but the academy strives to explain this phenomenon.
Anyway, good luck. Maybe someone will come out sometime, maybe there won't be any change for decades. Scientific development is never linear; it stagnates and waits for the next big thing to appear.
When Mei Huaigu heard the emperor's topic, he could probably use the words "unable to complain." The atmosphere has been set off for you here, but as soon as the door is closed, you still talk to me about governing the country...
…
Most of the people in Meifu who left did not know why.
Mrs. Mei was even more cold-hearted towards the Gu family. The emperor naturally has a high level of vision. It is not his problem but yours to look down on him. Originally, she wanted to become a relative of this family, but now it was all in vain. She hoped that the subsequent disappointment would not make people who used to hate each other suddenly understand each other.
Huaixiao lowered her head, her eyes were a lot red, and her tender little mouth was pouting. She is still a girl. What do you want her to think? She is the older sister, and she used to be the strong and decisive person, but she was speechless when faced with this situation.
….
Although Huaiyan is lively, she is actually soft and timid. If her family is not around, she would not dare to say a word to strangers. She was probably too arrogant. At this time, she was not like mourning her concubine, but just a little distracted.
Their mother, Mrs. Gu, only felt that it was such a shame. She herself had nothing to do with it. Mainly, how could the two daughters raise their heads in Mei Mansion in the future?
"Madam," Mrs. Gu has never felt that Mrs. Mei's gaze is so piercing. "If you want to punish me, let me punish you as a mother."
Mrs. Mei didn't say anything, she just glanced at it and went to the backyard. The other servants who followed her didn't look kindly on her either.
After that, Mrs. Gu took her two daughters back to her side courtyard. When she entered the house and closed the door, her eyes closed, and two lines of tears ran down her cheeks. "My miserable smile and face." Son...mother brought you to this world, but what?
I can't do it either... Mom, I'm sorry for you. "
Huai smiled a little wider and was a little more sensible. Even though she was in such a mood, she couldn't hold back her tears. "Mom, don't say that. It's my sister and I's fault. We are not favored by the emperor. It's all because we were not good-looking." "
She wiped her tears, feeling infinitely aggrieved.
In fact, since childhood, others have always said that they are good-looking. Is it possible that the palace really has the most beautiful people in the world?
"... Anyway, Huaiyan and I can't get married like this, and we will be looked down upon in the Mei Mansion. Why don't you take us out? The emperor is thinking about the people now, and everyone has a bite to eat. Come on, we have worked hard. A little, but I can’t starve to death even if I make some clean money.”
Gu is an adult and does not have the illusions of a young lady.
There is no such thing as being so nice outside. Not to mention anything else, it was the appearance of these two sisters that attracted Uncle Huaiyuan and frightened her. Hiding in Mei Mansion is at least safe, but what if other bad guys target me when I go out?
"...Let's wait until your father comes back."
This had to be done for now, so the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried again. After crying and feeling relieved, you will feel better. It is Huaiyan who is always wandering in the sky.
She held her chin up and looked through the window at the peach trees swaying gently in the wind. Hearing the footsteps, he asked, "Sister, does that person really not like us?"
Huaixiao felt that his sister was a little strange, so he covered her head, thinking not to burn her out, "...it should be so. You see, adults all react like this."
"But...but, he didn't say anything." My sister held her hand and looked up with watery eyes. "They all said he was very powerful. I originally thought he would have a lot to say. There’s a lot we don’t know.”
~~
The news here was probably delivered deliberately, so it quickly reached the cabinet.
When Li Dongyang and Xie Qian heard that the emperor was in Mei Mansion, they immediately stood up. Those who didn't know it thought they had rejuvenated.
They were in a hurry for two reasons.
First, Emperor Hongzhi just passed away in the first month of the first month. How long has it been since then? Not to mention a year, not even half a year.
Secondly, Mei Mansion has always had the reputation of being a "beautiful widow". Now that the young emperor has gone, what will others think if word spreads about it? Compared with the saying that people in the Mei family have a beautiful little daughter. The word widow is actually more deadly.
….
So the two cabinet ministers immediately set off for Mei Mansion without saying a word.
On the way, the cabinet's message was also conveyed, so four people from the Military Aircraft Department, other ministers, ministers, and officials from Dali Temple, Duchayuan and other ministries also went to Mei Mansion.
So the lane in front of Mei's house was soon filled with rows of red-robed officials.
The little eunuch who reported the news was frightened and thought that the Zuo Shunmen incident was coming again, and sweat dripped from his forehead.
But Zhu Houzhao sat still like an old monk, not in a hurry at all, and had a good talk with Mei Huaigu about the management of high-end hotels, from integrity and dedication to guest first, from teamwork to brand first, and what makes guests happy The feeling of being at home made Mei Huaigu feel dizzy.
Mei Huaigu was in the midst of it, answering the words wholeheartedly, without any extra thought.
But Liu Jin and You Zhi on the side could tell that the emperor was stalling for time. He waited until a young eunuch came to report that all the ministers were here.
Only then did Liu and You realize that they had been waiting for these people.
"Nostalgic." The emperor stood up.
"There are many important officials of the imperial court standing outside. You are the master, so you should show your face."
"yes."
"Hey. They still don't believe me." The emperor sighed slightly. Didn't he know that the previous emperor had just passed away and it was not appropriate for the new emperor to go out of the palace to have fun? So once you plot against them, you will be fooled once.
When he arrived at the door, Zhu Houzhao realized, my dear, where are the ministers? The guards standing with guns are all from the third floor inside and the third floor outside.
When Li Dongyang saw that the emperor was really here, he couldn't hold back the anger in his chest. He looked at Mei Huaigu even more fiercely, "Your Majesty, the most powerful person in the world, if you can
How could a merchant's house come to him at this time? If the news spreads, I may harm my saintliness. Mei Huai, the son of an ancient merchant, did not know justice and reason, acted rashly, and put His Majesty in a place of neglect. Moreover, Mei Mansion has a beautiful reputation. How will the people of the world treat your Majesty when he comes here? ! It can be seen that Mei Huaigu has a sinister heart, even more sinister than a ferocious tiger. I am sure that your Majesty's decree is important in order to correct the conduct of the court! "
"Mr. Ge." Zhu Houzhao seemed to be in a good mood, "Don't worry, I have good news to tell Mr. Ge."
Li Dongyang was stunned.
"When I arrived at the Mei Mansion, I sold my face and it was quite fruitful. Mei Huaigu had already promised to use his own money to build a restaurant in the capital and employ thousands of people. I said that the government would give the people a chance. A way to survive, this is a way to survive for thousands of people!"
Mei Huaigu responded at this time, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I have already prepared the money. As long as the place is certain, I will ask the housekeeper to open the door to recruit workers."
"be quick."
"yes!"
Li Dongyang and others were dumbfounded, what kind of idea is this?
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty has come to Mei Mansion..."
"I came to the Mei Mansion to discuss a big matter, what else would Mr. Ge think?" The emperor smiled with a knife hidden in his face, and then his tone turned slightly harsh, "Go back to the palace. You all come, you are disturbing the people."
As soon as Zhu Houzhao said this, he became a good person! Who is blaming whom?
"Your Majesty, you cannot enter the Widow's Gate!"
Behind the emperor, an old man with white hair suddenly knelt down.
But Zhu Houzhao didn't care, "That's already done. What do you think we should do? Depose me as the emperor?"
"Your Majesty, calm down."
"Go back to the palace! Don't be embarrassed outside." Zhu Houzhao flicked his sleeves, "If I can feed thousands more people, I'm not afraid of going to the widow's house. Even if there is something unknown, it is my fate, Emperor. It’s just for the people to make a living! This is what I said, you can pass it on, even if the King of Heaven comes and says I’m wrong, I won’t admit it.”
The emperor is on the bright side,
Secretly, Mao Yuwen sent people to carefully follow the previous targets. He thought a little pervertedly that when encountering such a big event, some people should meet each other, right? After all, this is the fun.
