Chapter 22 Grab the credit

"What a beautiful brick road!" Yang Ji'er jumped happily on the green brick surface.

Since there are not many red bricks, the last section of the road is made of blue bricks.

"The road of cars and horses." Yang Jier pointed to the road and said, and on the road full of blue bricks, several large characters inlaid with red bricks were clearly visible.

"His Royal Highness Dai is really wise. He came up with such a good idea. He embeds red bricks on the blue brick pavement to form handwriting." Su Sheng praised.

Yang You looked at the wide road with satisfaction and felt very proud. This brick road embodies the wisdom of 1,400 years of later generations, which is extremely exquisite.

The entire brick road is divided into three parts, with the widest chariot and horse roadway in the middle, about five meters wide and one meter wide sidewalk on both sides.

In Yang You's original idea, the three parts were paved with two different colors of bricks, but because there were very few red bricks, they had to use blue bricks to pave the road. The red bricks were used as few as possible, and only used to inlaid the handwriting and isolate the sidewalks and chariots and horses.

Even so, such exquisite design has shocked everyone.

"Yang You, is the brick road only built so long? Will it be repaired in the future?" Yang Jier asked curiously.

"Of course I've been repaired, but I have to test today's results first." Yang You said affirmatively.

Although I know the benefits of brick roads, I am afraid that the alleys are deep. These benefits must be displayed to the people of Daxing. Otherwise, if you do good things yourself, you will leave a bad reputation of extravagance and waste, which will be more than worth the loss.

"Let's go, then let's go and test it quickly." Yang Ji'er couldn't wait.

Wang Xi quickly climbed onto the shaft, and Dong Yue rode his guards on horseback, guarding both sides.

The four-wheeled carriage started at a constant speed and was exercising quickly and smoothly on the wide brick road.

The people had already been cleared on the brick road, and the people had returned to the fields on both sides to watch.

Whenever the carriage reached the middle of the people, the people on both sides of the road burst into cheers.

Is the road good? Do they still don’t understand when they look at the carriage running on the brick road?

"His Royal Highness Dai is really a magical one. You can think of such a magical idea." A farmer said in a worshipful tone.

He is the nearby farmer. He originally drove away these people who watched the fun. These people have been trampling on the fields and the ground has become hard. It will probably take a lot of effort to renovate the land next year.

As soon as he spoke, a man dressed in a businessman threw him a bunch of money and made him shut up. The money was enough to make up for his losses.

"How convenient would it be to transport goods in the future if such a carriage and such a road surface!" The merchant looked at the carriage running on the brick road intently and thought.

"The reputation of His Highness Dai will definitely rise to another level this time." A man dressed in a scholar murmured.

Almost everyone feels worried when they hear His Highness Dai King paving the road with bricks. This is a sign that is easy to be labeled as extravagant and wasteful. In the end, His Highness Dai King even used blue bricks, this view became even more popular.

But as the carriage was running, all speculations were denied.

Using bricks to build roads is not a nonsense, but rather a great thing. It is a wonderful note that others dare not think about. However, only His Highness Dai Wang has the conditions to implement this matter. Others probably will be sprayed to death as soon as they open their mouths.

"Yang You, you hear them cheering!" Yang Ji'er lay on the car window and looked out.

"Yes! In this era of lack of entertainment, I finally found a fun thing. Do you think it's fun or not?" Yang You muttered in a low voice.

"What did you say?" The cheers outside disturbed, and Yang Ji'er didn't hear what Yang You said clearly.

"Nothing, then do you want them to be louder?" Yang You said mysteriously.

"Um?"

Under Yang Jier's doubt, Yang You stood up, groped on the roof of the car for a while, and pulled it hard, and a sunroof appeared on the roof.

The two stood up on the seats and exposed half of their bodies on the skylight.

The carriage was moving forward at a very fast speed, and the cool breeze rushed towards him. Yang You looked at the crowd shouting on both sides, and was very excited. He was still enjoying this kind of treatment. He began to imitate a certain moment in the future, stretched out his hand and frequently signaled.

The people on both sides shouted excitedly when they saw Yang You on the roof of the car. No one expected that His Highness Dai would respond to ordinary people, such a major event that had never been heard of in the ages.

Yang Ji'er also learned to wave to the crowd on both sides in a good manner, and indeed received a warm response.

"His Royal Highness."

"Princess Izumo."

...

The shouts roared.

Yang Ji'er, who had never experienced such a thing, had her face flushed and her hands kept waving.

The five-mile journey was not long, and I arrived at Daxing City in a short while.

"What is that?" Yang Jier asked curiously, pointing ahead.

Yang You looked at the hundreds of people in front of him, pouring water on the brick road, and the water source was collecting water from the moat nearby.

"That was simulating the exercise of brick roads on rainy days." Yang You laughed.

This is a repertoire program he specially arranged, pouring water on the nearest mile to Daxing, so that everyone can understand that the best place for brick roads is to ignore the weather conditions, and you can use it at any time as long as you are willing to exercise.

The carriage was driving rapidly, but did not slow down because the road was wet, but kept moving forward at high speed.

The four-wheeled carriage was driving on the road where water was pouring, without any impact, and the people on both sides applauded.

It was not until the east city gate that the carriage slowly slowed down.

"Wait"

Wang Xi gently shouted at the horse, pulled the hand gate with his left hand, and the carriage stood firmly.

When Yang Jier got off the carriage, she looked at the wet ground curiously, but some places were almost dry, and the bricks had almost absorbed the water.

A gust of wind blew and the road surface dripped quickly.

"Gourmet to His Highness, King Dai."

After a while, Su Sheng and Xu Duo also rushed over.

"Get up!" Yang You raised his hand and said.

"I am guilty of my guilt, and I should not doubt His Highness Dai." Su Sheng apologized.

After exercising these five miles, Su Sheng was completely conquered by this magical road.

No matter how many roads were built in the past, they would be dusty and filled with big pits and small depressions in less than a few months, and they would not be used when it rains.

This is not the end. You have to wait until the road surface has dried before you can continue to use it. This will take more than one or two days.

If you have such a brick road, you will leave whenever you want.

If you are very anxious, you can walk in the rain. If you don’t want to walk on a rainy day, as long as the rain stops, you can walk immediately without waiting for any road surface to dry.

"What is the crime of County Magistrate Su? Brick Road is also my sudden idea. At the beginning, I didn't know whether it could be done. However, if any measures that can be better built into Daxing will not care even if I am misunderstood." Yang You tried his best to show calmness and be devoted to the public.

"His Highness of the King of Dai is really kind-hearted, which makes me ashamed. The construction of brick roads can increase the employment of refugees. The brick roads are durable and easy to maintain. It can be said that they have benefited from the present and future generations. His Highness of the King of Dai will surely leave their reputation in history today!"

"I dare not take it, I dare not take it." Yang You was modest,

Su Sheng cooperated very well, and the monarch and minister began to praise each other.

"I'm still paying attention to this brick road. If I hadn't despised the ground for dirty and used bricks to cushion the footsteps, how could you have thought of building brick roads!" Yang Ji'er looked arrogant.

The two of them were instantly stopped, but they didn't expect that Yang Ji'er not only likes to play, but also is good at snatching credit.

But, you want to leave a name in history, just kidding!
