Chapter 852: Is Your Brother's Time Running Out? ! You Actually Want to Make Me Live a Life Worse than Death!
Before Ying Chengyu could come to his senses, Ying Zheng had already spoken loudly: "Order!"
"Xiangbang commanded all the ministries and planned the cement road starting from Xianyang City, passing through Daliang, and heading to Helu."
"This matter needs to be done as quickly as possible, and all departments must cooperate with each other!"
Ying Zheng ordered Ying Chengyu to take over the position of Shaofu Cheng and supervise the construction of water mills and water mills in Daqin. This was not only because the water mills and water mills were made by Ying Chengcheng, but also because Ying Chengcheng knew more about these two things. It was also because water mills and water mills were very important but they were not used. To the extent that it is important to the national destiny, there are few stakes involved in its construction, so it is very suitable for Ying Chengyu to practice.
However, this cement road is directly related to the Qin Dynasty's control over the Guandong region and the national destiny of the Qin Dynasty. It also needs to open a road and move water along the way. There are many problems and complex relationships.
Ying Zheng neither dared nor could he hand over such an important task to Ying Chengxuan.
Only veterans like Lu Buwei can be given such an important task by the political commissar Ying!
Lu Buwei solemnly raised his hands and shouted together with the ministers: "Wei!"
Only then did Ying Zheng look at Ying Chengyu again, his eyes full of encouragement and he said: "Brother Wang is currently shouldering many important responsibilities, among which coordination requires more attention from Brother Wang."
"When the weather gets warmer next year at the latest, the DPRK and China can decide on the route of this avenue and complete the preliminary preparations."
"But when the construction will start, it all depends on when Brother Wang can produce enough cement!"
Ying Chengyu glanced at Ying Zheng with a resentful look and muttered: "I know how to put more burden on my brother!"
But facing Ying Zheng's eager and expectant gaze, Ying Chengyu could only hold his hands solemnly: "I will live up to my command!"
Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction and smiled happily: "Very kind! You are worthy of being my prince's younger brother!"
"Brother Wang, are there any wonderful things in this Lantian workshop that you want to see together with Brother Nai?"
Ying Chengyu's head shook wildly like a rattle: "It's gone, it's gone, it's really gone!"
"It's already dawn today. Brother and all my colleagues stayed up all night last night. It's better to return to Xianyang early to rest!"
Ying Zheng glanced at Ying Chengyu with a half-smile, but did not expose Ying Chengyu. He just said loudly: "Go back to the palace!"
Ying Chengqiu suddenly showed a relieved smile, and quickly said with his right hand: "Brother, please come this way!"
After leading Ying Zheng to the five-horse cart, Ying Chengyu couldn't hold it back after all. He put his head under the curtain of the cart and asked in a low voice: "Brother, why did you come to Lantian County today?"
"Although my shoulders are weak, if necessary, I can still resist more or less."
"Brother, don't be stingy!"
Ying Zheng had already boarded the carriage and was about to leave, but he never mentioned why he came, as if he just came to see Ying Chengyu.
But Ying Chengyu knows Ying Zheng too well!
On weekdays, Ying Chengxuan would go to the Weishui River to fish with Ying Zheng, but it would take a lot of effort.
If there was nothing both important and urgent, how could Ying Zheng drive so far to come to Lantian County to look for him!
Ying Zheng looked at Lu Buwei, who was about to board the car to accompany him. When their eyes met, Lu Buwei's mouth turned bitter, and Ying Zheng's eyes raised a smile: "Brother Nai has indeed come to see the king for something."
"But in front of these craftsmanship developed by Brother Wang, all difficulties are easy!"
Even if Earth Dragon does not turn over this year, so what?
The water mills, water mills and water mills developed by Ying Chengyu alone are enough to appease all the people.
When the construction of the cement road is completed, there is nothing to fear even if Guandong rebels against the Yingzheng government again!
Although Ying Zheng did not even mention the difficulties he faced to Ying Chengyu, the difficulties faced by Ying Zheng had been resolved by Ying Chengyu!
Ying Chengyu's eyes were a little confused, but he smiled: "This way, my brother's heart is at peace!"
Ying Zheng's eyes returned to Ying Chengyu, and he asked with a smile: "Brother Nai's dilemma has been solved, but brother Nai has a doubt, so he should ask Brother Wang to solve it!"
Ying Chengyu said without hesitation: "Brother, what are your doubts? You can speak out!"
Ying Zheng asked seriously: "If Brother Nai's prediction is correct, Brother Wang has already made plans for the many craftsmanship Brother Nai saw today, right?"
Ying Chengyu coughed slightly, turned his eyes to the side, and said in an erratic tone: "How can we say that this craftsmanship thing is a draft?"
"Crafts require many conditions such as materials, environment, craftsmen, etc. It is not just a fantasy, just like the steel-making technique developed by my brother..."
The words that followed were difficult to understand, secretly diverting the topic.
But in Ying Zheng's view, Ying Chengxuan's lack of direct denial was already an admission.
Ying Zheng smiled and waved his hand: "Brother Wang doesn't need to explain so much. Brother Nai really doesn't understand craftsmanship. Brother Nai can't understand it even if Brother Wang explains too much."
"Brother Nai just doesn't understand why Brother Wang wanted to build the Lantian Workshop when he already had the Chang'an Workshop, and then spontaneously developed so many craftsman-made things, and even pursued the art of steelmaking. ?”
"Brother Nai knows that Brother Wang is a good craftsman."
"But Brother Nai has never seen Brother Wang being so obsessed with things made by craftsmen, let alone seeing Brother Wang taking out many things made by craftsmen so casually!"
"Brother Wang, can you tell Brother Nai what the reason is?"
By the end of his words, Ying Zheng's expression became quite serious.
Ying Zheng knew very well that Ying Chengxuan's attitude towards the craftsmanship he studied was stingy.
Just like oil, Ying Chengyu had clearly asked his soldiers to collect a large amount of oil a long time ago but did not reveal it to anyone. Even he himself was unwilling to use it. He only took it out stingily when he had to use it.
It was not until the war that destroyed the Wei Dynasty that Ying Chengyu's stinginess improved, but he was limited to taking things as needed and encouraging the Qin clan to study craftsmanship.
The Qin Military Academy needed learning supplies, so Ying Chengyu went to develop Chang'an paper.
Da Qin needed to implement family planning, so Ying Chengxi established the Boar Management Institute to research excellent breeding pigs.
But the Lam Tin Workshop Group broke this rule!
Water hammers, water mills, and water mills all serve the art of steelmaking and cement.
However, neither the art of steelmaking nor cement was directly linked to a certain goal, and Ying Zheng never asked Ying Chengxuan to support Da Qin in the fields of road construction and steel.
Moreover, Ying Chengyu's confidentiality attitude towards the Lantian Workshop Group was obviously weaker than usual.
All this made Ying Zheng quite puzzled and even a little uneasy!
In the past, the lazy brother Wang was now in a hurry to realize everything he knew in Da Qin. Combined with the appearance of Ying Chengyu repeatedly leaking secrets without any cost.
It's hard for Ying Zheng not to suspect that the price Ying Chengyu leaked the secret was his lifespan!
And now Ying Chengyu's time is running out!
Ying Chengyu had no idea that Ying Zheng's inner drama was so complicated.
Facing Ying Zheng's question, Ying Chengyu showed a narrow smile: "It's because the Prime Minister returned to the court!"
Lu Buwei missed the mark and almost fell to the ground.
Standing firm with the help of Zhao Gao, Lu Buwei got on the car again and looked at Ying Chengyu with a puzzled look: "If you return the truth to the court, what is the use of Chang'an Jun to study more craftsmanship?!"
Ying Zheng carefully observed Ying Chengyu's expression and eyes, and at the same time reached out and said, "Brother Wang, get in the car and talk in detail!"
Hearing the words, Ying Chengyu rushed into the car and sat side by side with Ying Zheng. He took out a jar of wine from the cupboard and took out three wine coins. While pouring the wine, he said: "I once said to my eldest brother: Technology determines the foundation of people’s livelihood, and the foundation of people’s livelihood determines the way of governing the country.”
"So, technology is the foundation of everything!"
"Correspondingly, with the rapid development of various technologies in our country, the foundation of people's livelihood in our country will also rapidly improve, and the way of governing the country will also have to change rapidly."
"Otherwise, our Great Qin will definitely be in turmoil!"
Lu Buwei frowned slightly and wanted to refute, but in the end he nodded slowly: "The former Prime Minister heard Dr. Fei's talk of change and didn't agree with it."
"But today I saw the cement road that Lord Chang'an studied, and I think this statement is indeed reasonable!"
Lu Buwei is already a very outstanding reformer in this era.
But even in Lu Buwei's view, Han Fei's thoughts were still a bit too radical.
But when the cement road really cut off Lu Buwei's possibility of admonishing for enfeoffment, Lu Buwei had to admit it.
Times have really changed!
Ying Chengyu's voice was a little more serious: "Water mills, water mills, gold juice to treat dung, Chang'an plow and other things can greatly increase the harvest, allowing Da Qin to feed the whole country with less investment in farming in Guizhou. At that time How can I, the Qin Dynasty, make the leaders of Guizhou willing to take the initiative to fight against the enemy? "
"The cement road will greatly shorten the distance from Xianyang City to the border of Da Qin. How should Da Qin govern the border land that is far away but easily accessible?"
"And if the art of steelmaking is successful, it will make tools, armor, and weapons cheaper and easier to obtain, and even lead to the emergence of more craftsman-made things. Guizhou leaders will be able to obtain their daily necessities more easily. How will we, the Qin Dynasty, govern the people then?"
"This is only the most superficial and direct change. There are many deeper and more indirect changes."
"I can say with certainty that there is no need for me to produce more craftsmanship. If the craftsmanship in Lantian Workshop is spread throughout the Qin Dynasty, my country, the Qin Dynasty, will change with each passing day and be in constant turmoil!"
Ying Zheng also had a solemn look on his face and said in a deep voice: "What brother Wang said makes sense!"
"Brother Wang has already told Brother Nai that the technology will definitely shake the foundation of the Qin Dynasty."
"However, in this age of great strife, if you don't advance, you will perish!"
"Since we, Da Qin, have the possibility of taking a further step, we, Da Qin, must hold on to it firmly and not stop eating because of choking!"
"And." Ying Zheng said with a smile on his face: "Since Brother Wang has changed his previous attitude and studied craftsmanship extensively, it seems that he has already thought of a good strategy to face this turmoil?"
Ying Cheng turned his smiling eyes to Lu Buwei and said, "Here's a good strategy!"
Following Ying Chengyu's gaze, Ying Zheng's gaze also turned to Lu Buwei.
Lu Buwei:? ? ?
Pointing his finger at himself, Lu Buwei wondered whether he should laugh or cry: "Could it be that the good strategy mentioned by Lord Chang'an is not true?"
Ying Chengxuan said matter-of-factly: "Does Xiangbang think that I can think of a way to face such turmoil?"
"You know I don't have that ability, right?"
"Of course, I believe that Xiangbang must have such ability!"
Lu Buwei did not directly deny it, but asked: "After Chang'an Lord has successfully developed the art of steel-making, will he continue to develop craftsmanship?"
Ying Chengyu nodded and said, "The art of steelmaking is the starting point of industry!"
Lu Buwei's heart trembled violently.
Ying Chengyu has already demonstrated craftsmanship that is enough to shock the whole world.
As a result, in Ying Chengyu's view, his unfinished steel-making technique is just a starting point? !
The impact that cement, water mills, water mills, etc. may have on Da Qin already makes Lu Buwei feel dizzy just thinking about it.
When Ying Chengxuan truly sets foot on what he calls the starting point of industry, how much shock will he bring to Da Qin? !
And all these shocks need to be faced by Lu Buwei!
After Lu Buwei was silent for a few seconds, he looked at Ying Chengyu with bitter eyes and said, "No wonder Lord Chang'an wanted to shoot the poisoned wine out of the hands of the Prime Minister!"
"The truth is that I thought Lord Chang'an had put aside the past grudges, but I never thought that Lord Chang'an wanted the truth..."
"Life is worse than death!!!"
