Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter Eight Hundred and Thirtieth Eight: Shame and Courage

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!

The student roughly recorded the damage of this storm.

Because of the preparations in advance, many building materials were put away before the storm.

The only loss, which is some half-finished places, and some cleaning costs.

After a whole morning of statistics, the student said: "Master, it needs to be repaired now, at least 20,000 taels of silver..."

twenty thousand...

Zhu Houzhao was about to suffocate.

Silver.

I still owe a lot of debt now.

Fang Jifan was also a little annoyed: "There are so many, are you still allowed to live?"

The student said ashamedly: "It's the students who didn't do it well. There were a lot of unnecessary losses, but because of lack of experience... next time..."

"I still want to have a next time, two acres of land will be gone like this. Fang Jifan only has hundreds of thousands of acres of land. Are you so spoiled?"

The student's face changed. In fact, he was quite ashamed.

I'm really sorry for my teacher. If I had been more cautious at the beginning, why would I have suffered such a huge loss? His eyes were red, and he knelt down: "It's the student's fault, the student will die, the student is ashamed of the teacher's teaching, the student is nothing! "

In Xishan, Shigong is everything, he is their originator, and Shigong's temper has long been widely spread in Xishan Academy.

The students in Xishan are all proud. In Xishan, even if you are admitted to the second-class Jinshi, it is a shame to the master. You can't hold your head up.

Because of this, almost everyone in Xishan Academy puts all their efforts into doing better than their fellow apprentices, not for any other reason, because outside, they are all proud Xishan students.

The student bowed down and kowtowed: "Master, the student has made a mistake and must repent in the future. Please punish me, Master!"

Fang Jifan put his hands behind his back, his temper has improved a lot recently, but he raised his head and looked at the ceiling: "You guys, I really don't worry, what can I do, I treat you like my grandsons."

Liu Jin, who was standing aside, was a little confused.

It seems... I suddenly have hundreds of brothers.

Subconsciously, he took a fried peanut and put it in his mouth, chewed it, suppressing his shock.

The student was still crying bitterly.

It would be fine if the master slapped himself, but the master didn't show any punishment, and he treated his grandson with a sentence, which made him feel warmer.

Shigong treats me like this, but I really don't live up to it, I let him down so much.

I, Chang Wei, am really ashamed of my master, a shame of my master.

He burst into tears: "The master doesn't punish, and the students can't forgive themselves. The students just knelt outside, kneeling for a day and a night, in order to reflect on themselves."

As he said that, he got up and walked out of the shed without hesitation. In front of the craftsmen and coolies on the construction site, his eyes were red, but he knelt down on the asphalt road.

The asphalt road was still wet, and it was full of fine particles, sticking to the knees, which was extremely painful.

The other students outside the shed originally came to report together.

Seeing Senior Brother Chang kneel down, all of them looked ashamed, shame on their faces, the loss of 20,000 taels of silver was truly a disgrace to the Xishan Institute of Engineering, such a painful loss, how could I still have the face to stand on.

Dozens of students, without saying anything, came behind Chang Wei and knelt down on the side of the road.

They remained motionless, with mist in their eye sockets, deeply self-criticism and introspection, this humiliation seemed to make them unable to hold their heads up for the rest of their lives.

People passing by and driving cars felt strange when they saw them. In the eyes of the 60,000 to 70,000 craftsmen and coolies on this construction site, these people from the engineering institute were like parents and officials. The progress of the project, check the materials of the project, and improve the craftsmanship with the old craftsmen.

Every student holds great authority in his hands.

But who would have known that they were kneeling here in such a state of embarrassment now.

Facing a pair of fiery eyes, a student lowered his head in shame, wishing he could bury his head in the sand.

But Chang Wei raised his head and said: "You all raise your heads. If you do something wrong, are you still afraid of being seen by others? Know your shame and be brave. This is what the gentlemen taught us. Today, being punished here is for us to remember. Learn from the lessons and come up with a better way in the future, so as not to worry the master, not to shame the academy, remember what happened today, everyone look up."

So everyone looked up, even if every pair of passing eyes made them extremely embarrassed.

………

in the shed.

Zhu Houzhao walked through the open door from the inside, looked at the students, and couldn't help saying: "Old Fang, forget it, just give them a beating, and let them kneel here like this, what a waste of time."

Fang Jifan lowered his head, forgiving these students long ago in his heart.

After all, they were brought out by themselves, and they have always been valued. These people are as precious as their own grandsons.

But seeing them face the wall and think about their mistakes at this time, I felt a little bit unbearable, after all...Fang Jifan is a person with a conscience, he can't bear to blame these grandsons.

But, I thought in my heart, it's not a bad thing to let them reflect on it. After learning this time, they will use their brains to do things next time. Well, let them go.

Fang Jifan read the notebooks sent by Chang Wei just now one by one, and he probably knew the progress of the project.

He sat down and took a sip of tea: "Jinzhou Road is about to be completed. This is a main road. Once this road is connected, the land around here should be sold. There is also Jinghang Road, which is also ready to be repaired... Well, This is related to His Highness's land."

All the planning of the new city is named after the place names in the world. For example, Jinghang Road, the road names within the third ring road are mainly from northern cities, while the third to fifth ring roads are named after southern place names. Use the name of the chief envoy, and the sub-trunk roads are named after prefectures and counties.

The reason why Fang Jifan called this road the Beijing-Hangzhou Avenue is because, in this world, it is the famous Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal that connects the north and the south. The specification of this road will use the highest specification, and the road will extend directly to the Fifth Ring Road.

In this way, Zhu Houzhao's land will be marketable.

Fang Jifan said: "The quotation has already been made. This road alone will cost 300,000 taels of silver."

"Three hundred thousand, that's a lot!" Zhu Houzhao couldn't help being speechless.

Three hundred thousand taels of silver was just to build a road. Zhu Houzhao even suspected that if his father knew about it, he would kill himself.

What a loser.

"There are also these road networks, um... Xuanfu Road, Shanhaiguan Road, and Liaoyang Road... These secondary roads will also be built. I am afraid that it will cost millions of taels of silver. We must start breaking ground at any time and repair the roads first. , after the repairs are completed, the government offices will not be around, such as the Wucheng Bingmasi, the Dongcheng Bingmasike is here, and the West City is here... I would rather they be built farther away, even if it is on the Fifth Ring Road, it doesn't matter. besides……"

Fang Jifan continued to frown.

Zhu Houzhao suddenly said: "Old Fang, I haven't seen my father for so many days, and it's been stormy these days, nothing will happen to him, right?"

"..."

Fang Jifan also seemed to have remembered something.

Since waking up in the morning till now, my mind is full of my new city, and I forgot about His Majesty.

He looked at Zhu Houzhao in bewilderment: "Your Highness, go and have a look?"

Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "Nothing will happen. I think about it carefully. If something serious happens, there will definitely be eunuchs in Daming Palace to report it, so I don't want to see it."

Fang Jifan nodded and nodded, it makes sense.

He immediately beamed with joy: "That's fine, as we all know, His Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year King, and auspicious people have their own appearance. Of course, there will be no problems. I just said something."

…………

A group of people almost waded through mountains and rivers, stepping on mud, finally, someone saw the towering bell tower, and finally... heaved a sigh of relief.

The Daming Palace is right in front of you, and after a few more miles, you will be there.

During this journey, for more than three hours, countless people were almost weak.

Liu Jian was exhausted, he had just recovered from a serious illness, and he couldn't hold on, so Zhang Zhaotian ordered someone to weave a simple rattan chair out of rattan, asked Liu Jian to sit, and ordered someone to carry it all the way.

As for the others, no such luck.

This is a day that is still fresh in the memory of all the civil and military officials, and no one is almost exhausted.

When Wang Bushi saw the bell tower, tears were about to come out. At this moment, he was desperately looking towards the new city.

But... the new city is still a little far away, so I can't see clearly.

In front of him, there was a puddle deep enough to submerge his knees.

They all rolled up their trousers, so they had to walk in the water obediently.

This puddle is extremely slippery, and if you are not careful, you may fall.

Because of this, everyone held hands with each other, and Wang Bushi held hands with his colleague Liu Zhengjing. Liu Zhengjing couldn't bear Wang Bushi's appearance, but couldn't say anything. I cheated my whole life...

Wang Bushi only felt that his brain was buzzing, and he felt emotional in his heart, it's over, it's not far from the new city, and even if it's flooded like this, the new city... I'm afraid it's over.

As for Daming Palace...God knows what it looks like inside.

He walked briskly, and almost slipped several times, but was helped up by Liu Zhengjing, his body was covered in mud, and he was in extreme embarrassment.

After slowly walking through the water and walking all the way, there is a dead end in the new city ahead.

It can be said that it is also strange.

The asphalt road is still as good as new. What's even more amazing is that once you reach the Duandu Road, the nearby water almost disappears without a trace.

However... there is still a lot of mud, but without the stagnant water, the road will be easier to walk at once.

People walked on the asphalt road and wanted to enter the palace. They could have taken a shortcut, but there were too many mud and puddles there. Walking on this road is surprisingly comfortable.

I didn't think it in the past, but today, people realize the value of such a road.
