Chapter 680 The Third Step of the Plan!

Chapter six hundred and eightieth

Building a city has always been a huge project that consumes a lot of gold and silver. As a master civil engineer, Zhang Shouzhi was most worried about the lack of funds during the construction, which caused the project to be abandoned halfway.

But now, the funds that have been raised are more than enough to build several cities. This is no longer as simple as a few hundred thousand taels or a few million taels of gold.

For the first time in his life, Zhang Shouzhi didn't have to worry about money at all, but at this time, not only was he not surprised at all, but he was a little worried, worried about Wang Chong.

But the money of the aristocratic family is not so easy to collect!

"My lord, this matter is no small matter, I hope you will be careful!"

Zhang Shouzhi said in a deep voice.

Wang Chong smiled without saying a word. Of course he knew what Zhang Shouzhi was worried about. If his purpose was only to use that fiefdom to make money, it would of course be a problem to collect money from so many aristocratic families.

But Wang Chong is a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking. Making money is just an appearance, not the truth. Moreover, the bigger the city and the more noble families it recruits, the greater help it can provide to the Western Regions, and the more resources and support it can get from the noble families.

And to a certain extent, only in this way can one's fiefdom have the greatest influence!

To be a general requires extraordinary vision and courage, which Zhang Shouzhi does not possess.

"I have my own opinion on all this, Mr. Zhang doesn't have to worry about it."

Wang Chong smiled indifferently, and raised a finger while speaking.

"In addition, I hope that the construction of the city can be put on the agenda as soon as possible. One month, at most one month, excluding the transportation time of various wood and iron in the middle, I hope to complete the construction of the city within one month. "

"Buzz!"

Hearing Wang Chong's words, Zhang Shouzhi was shocked and raised his head suddenly. The construction of a city has always been time-consuming and labor-intensive. The larger the city, the longer it will take.

It is completely normal for an ordinary city to take a year or two. Now that Wang Chong has received money from so many aristocratic families, it is simply impossible to use all of it to build a city and complete it within a month.

"Hehe, it's man-made,

Has Mr. Zhang forgotten the steel city on the mountain that we built in the southwest against Mengshezhao and Wusizang? "

Wang Chong seemed to have seen through the thoughts in Zhang Shouzhi's heart, and said with a casual smile.

"But even that's not enough!"

Zhang Shouzhi was in a hurry.

Building a huge city within a month is a miracle that only God can accomplish. Wang Chong's request is simply impossible.

"Of course it's impossible for an ordinary city, but that's not necessarily the case for a city of steel."

Wang Chong smiled and waved without looking back.

"Wei Guo, Wei Wu, bring things in!"

Bang, the door opened, and outside the door, two guards, Wei Guo Wei Wu, walked in carrying a big iron box that had been prepared long ago. Zhang Shouzhi, who was still full of sorrow just now, seemed to have expected it a long time ago, looked at the box and laughed, and left the table in two or three steps, rushed over before the big iron box was settled, and pulled the iron box away cover.

"Hahaha, as expected, I did not make a mistake, the young master has already prepared for it!"

Zhang Shouzhi looked at the rolls of white drawing scrolls in the iron box, his eyebrows were beaming, he reached out with his right hand, and picked up a roll with a swipe, without the slightest bit of sadness from before.

Swish!

The white blueprint was opened, and there were mysterious, complicated, and incomprehensible structural drawings on it. If it was before, this blueprint would be the entire Tang Dynasty. Unless Wang Chong explained it himself, otherwise, even the most powerful civil engineering master would not be able to learn from it. See Wang Chong's secret.

Most people probably don't even know what this thing is.

However, he and Wang Chong had the experience of cooperating on the "Steel Wall" on the surface of the mountain before. At a glance, Zhang Shouzhi figured out that this was a blueprint of the components of the steel city wall, and it belonged to a huge and complicated building that was bigger than Wang Chong in the southwest. The "Wall of Steel" is a much grander building piece.

"Not bad, not bad! Hahaha..., this is the real wealth, young master. I knew from the southwest that you would definitely build a real city of steel. My premonition was not wrong. Although it took a month It's a bit short, but if it's the city of steel, I'm willing to do my best and use all my strength to complete him as much as possible!"

Zhang Shouzhi's eyes were sharp, his whole body trembling with excitement, looking at the white blueprint in his hand, it was like looking at the most precious treasure in the world. Those gifts from aristocratic families are indeed heart-warming, but for a real, pure master of civil engineering, only truly great architectural drawings are the most heart-warming treasures in this world.

City of Steel!

Although what he saw was only a small part of this huge building, for Zhang Shouzhi, from this moment on, there is nothing, anyone, or anything in this world that has never appeared before in this world. The steel city that passed by was more able to attract his attention.

Now, anyone, even if it is an imperial decree, even if it is to kill him, it is absolutely impossible for him to give up, let alone withdraw.

One, two, three..., Zhang Shouzhi kept opening the blueprints one by one, with an excited expression, as if he had found a treasure.

Wang Chong watched this scene, sipped the tea lightly, smiled without saying a word.

Ever since he learned that he could make a feudal city, he put his mind on this city of steel on the Silk Road. Time is limited, the war in the Western Regions will come soon, it is impossible for him to build a city in two to three years.

So modular construction, building a "Steel City" that has never appeared in this world is Wang Chong's best choice!

Under normal circumstances, even with modular construction, it is absolutely impossible to build a city of steel within a month. This kind of huge and complicated project is definitely not something that any family, any wealthy family, or powerful, prince can complete.

However, Wang Chong completed the most complicated part:

Bring in the entire capital's aristocratic family!

When these people come in, with the help of the financial, material and human resources of the big and small families in the capital, Wang Chong will be able to move the world, borrow the strength of the whole world and the entire Tang Dynasty to build this extremely important building in his plan. The "Steel City"!

When this plan is successfully realized, it will no longer be a matter of Wang Chong building his own fief, but the entire Tang Dynasty, the whole world is helping Wang Chong build his fief!

This Fangfangye talk requires huge material resources, financial resources, and power, which has never happened before in the history of Tang Dynasty. But now, in the hands of Wang Chong, this kind of thing that the aristocratic family can't even imagine will become a reality with his own hands!

"The blueprints for this city of steel are all here. All the things needed for construction, manpower, material resources, and financial resources, I will hand them over to you in charge. In addition, I will let the four major swordsmith families and all the people in Beijing The sword tower and sword shop cooperate with you, in this respect, Wei Guo and Wei Wu will fully cooperate with you!"

Seeing Zhang Shouzhi's happy expression on Lie Xin's face, Wang Chong smiled knowingly, put down his teacup, and stood up from his seat:

"In addition, after all the money from the aristocratic families has arrived, you can really mobilize all the sword towers, sword shops, mines, and mines in the world, and start your construction plan!"

"Hahaha, I already have this intention. Even if you don't tell me, I will do it. This big project is exciting to think about. If you don't mind, I want to leave immediately and officially start the preliminary stage preparations."

Zhang Shou said excitedly.

For a master of civil engineering, construction is life, and it will be the dream of all masters of civil engineering to create a huge project that is famous in history.

And a city of steel with a large scale on the westbound road, beyond imagination, can definitely be achieved!

Zhang Shouzhi left soon. With the box full of blueprints, he called more than 30 guards from the Wang family, and asked Gong Yu Lingxiang to help him secretly, and escorted him home all the time. It is not blueprints, but the most valuable treasure in the world.

...

"There's only one last thing to do now!"

In the lobby, when Zhang Shouzhi left, Wang Chong raised his head and knocked on the table unconsciously with his fingers. Thoughts flashed through his mind. To change the western border of the empire and the fate of the Anxi Protectorate, it is far from enough to build a city on the Silk Road.

Similarly, this is not something that Wang Chong can solve by recruiting some Wushang warriors in Wushang.

To solve the problem of the Anxi Protectorate once and for all, relying on these alone is far from enough. In Wang Chong's plan, the last step is still missing among the three major measures.

"Get out of town!"

Walking out of the house, Wang Chong boarded the carriage, walked through the streets and alleys, finally passed through the city gate, and entered a mountain outside the city. Among the vast mountains, a flat, artificially built mine stands at the foot of the mountain.

The periphery of the mine is heavily guarded, and countless energetic soldiers are guarding the outside.

Wang Chong's appointment as Marquis is a major event for the entire Wang family!

To celebrate, the roots of the entire Wang family gave out gifts. These soldiers were all sent by the old subordinates of Grandpa Wang Chong. And extremely reliable.

And the latter is what he values ​​most.

"Young master!"

Seeing Wang Chong's appearance, a group of figures hurried out of the mine, strode to Wang Chong's carriage, and bowed in salute.

"Jing Dian, you don't need to be too polite in front of me."

Wang Chong waved his hand, stopped the road, turned his eyes, and quickly looked into the mine.

"How is my preparation going?"

"Back to the young master, all the lime and clay have been prepared. In addition, according to the young master's instructions, we have also summoned a large number of masonry craftsmen and asked them to prepare it."

Zhao Jingdian said respectfully.

"Well, take me to have a look!"

Wang Chong said.

Before he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves, and he was already striding towards the mine, faster than Zhao Jingdian.
