Chapter 1321 Variables

Inside the palace, Cao Cao held Xiahou Dun's memorial in his hand and walked around in a restless mood.

The appearance of the steam loom had already given Cao Cao a great shock, and at the same time made Cao Cao more defensive against Bai Feng.

Now that the steam locomotive has appeared, Cao Cao no longer knows how to continue to suppress Bai Feng.

Although Xiahou Dun can directly lead his troops to Hanzhong to confiscate Bai Feng's assets, this can be achieved.

But the consequences are very serious.

Everyone in the world knows that without Bai Feng's full support, how can the Wei Dynasty unify the world? !

Now Cao Cao wants to kill Bai Feng, not to mention whether he has the ability, what does this make people in the world think?

Are all the Cao family members the kind of people who kill meritorious officials!

So Cao Cao cannot send troops to attack Hanzhong, unless Bai Feng sends troops first to change the world, so that Cao Cao has a reason to send troops to attack Hanzhong.

But Cao Cao knows that Bai Feng will not give him a reason to send troops.

The reason is actually very simple, that is, Bai Feng is young enough.

Even if Bai Feng did nothing, as long as Cao Cao didn't catch him with the unforgivable evidence of treason.

The greatest extent Cao Cao could achieve was to make Bai Feng the mascot of Wei, with a high position but not great power.

However, with Bai Feng's achievements and influence, it was very difficult to achieve this.

After this stroke, Cao Cao became more and more eager to pave the way for his successor.

Cao Cao, who truly realized the fragility of life and that even an emperor could not reverse the cycle of birth, aging, sickness and death, was more worried about whether Wei could continue to be ruled by the Cao family and continue to prosper after his death.

Bai Feng, who was busy building a railway in Hanzhong, naturally didn't know that in Cao Cao's eyes, he had become the biggest variable.

Even if Bai Feng knew Cao Cao's idea, he wouldn't care.

The development of industrialization would definitely have a great impact on Wei's original small peasant economy.

This means that Bai Feng would definitely be enemies with the original rentier class, that is, the aristocratic families that were truly rooted in the land of Wei.

However, since Bai Feng was going to take this path, he would certainly not be without this psychological preparation.

Cao Cao would never have thought of his biggest trump card and reliance, which is:

System!

With the system, Bai Feng has the confidence to fight against everything.

At this time, Bai Feng is instructing the craftsmen on how to build the railway.

It is basically impossible for ordinary people to run dozens of construction sites a day. After Bai Feng personally experienced it, he was exhausted physically and mentally.

"Now I finally know how the title of infrastructure maniac came from."

Even with the protection of spiritual energy, Bai Feng, who is invincible on the battlefield, can't help but respect the civil engineers of later generations.

After Bai Feng's guidance, the craftsmen on the construction site began to build the railway step by step.

It took three days for Bai Feng to let the craftsmen in various cities in Hanzhong carry out normal construction.

During this period, Bai Feng also made various tools according to his memory to help the craftsmen build the railway better.

After all, the railway is different from others, and the requirements are much higher.

Bai Feng doesn't want to build a barely usable railway that needs to be repaired every now and then.

In this way, the efficiency of railway transportation will be greatly reduced, and the advantages of railways will be seriously weakened.

That night, when Bai Feng returned to the mansion, Cao Jie saw Bai Feng, who was exhausted, and hurried forward and said:

"My husband looks bad, is he sick?"

Cao Jie, who was worried about Bai Feng, had forgotten that Bai Feng also had the title of a miracle doctor.

Bai Feng felt Cao Jie's concern and smiled:

"I'm not sick, don't you know my body?"

"It's just that I have to constantly guide the craftsmen on how to build the railway these days, and my energy consumption is a bit large. I just need to rest for a while."

After hearing this, Cao Jie's face looked much better.

After experiencing Cao Cao's stroke, Cao Jie began to pay great attention to the health of the people around him.

For example, if Diao Chan and Cai Wenji had a headache or fever, Cao Jie would immediately let them have a good rest, no matter how many things they had on hand.

"That's good, dinner is ready."

After dinner, Bai Feng asked Cao Jie whether the soap workshop had been delayed because of the construction of the railway.

Bai Feng has already finished the busiest task. If there is too much work in the soap workshop, Cao Jie can handle it first.

"The soap workshop in Yizhou has started working now. I have sent a group of craftsmen from the workshop in Hanzhong to produce and train the newly recruited craftsmen."

"There is no need to worry about the soap shop, but the sales growth of soap has been getting smaller and smaller."

Cao Jie said to Bai Feng after hearing this.

The soap market in Yizhou is close to saturation, which is also within Bai Feng's expectations.

"It doesn't matter. Next we will open up the soap market in Jingzhou."

"After Jie'er is done with this period of time, you can send people to Jingzhou to select a site, prepare to build a soap workshop, and buy a shop."

Jingzhou is the closest state to Hanzhong and Yizhou. Whether it is soap from Hanzhong or soap from Yizhou, it can be easily transported to Jingzhou.

After Bai Feng finished talking to Cao Jie, Cao Jie nodded excitedly.

In the near future, the whole Wei will use soap, and soap beans and bath beans will become history.

This feeling of writing history with one's own hands makes Cao Jie unable to stop.

"Well, after the railway construction is not so busy, I will ask Qiying and Liuli to go to Jingzhou to take a look."

Then Cao Jie said to Bai Feng.

Yecheng.

After Cao Cao finished handling some government affairs, he felt a little tired and came to the imperial garden to relax.

Then he thought again about what Xiahou Dun reported to him about the steam train.

The steam loom left a very deep impression on Cao Cao, so now he really wants to see with his own eyes how big the difference is between this steam train and what Xiahou Dun wrote in his memorial.

Then Cao Cao returned to the main hall, wrote a handwritten edict and sent it to Bai Feng in Yecheng.

After this letter arrived in Hanzhong, about one mile of railways had been built between various cities in Hanzhong.

Without excavators, dump trucks, or cranes, craftsmen relied on their hands in the cool autumn wind to extend the railway inch by inch.

The cavalry responsible for delivering the oracle to Bai Feng came to Hanzhong and saw the railways being built between various cities.

The curious cavalryman wanted to ask the craftsmen exactly what was being built, but the most important thing was to deliver the handwriting.
