Chapter 99 Remote drone in place

It would have been even more perfect if it weren't for the guards in front of Wang Chengen from time to time, who couldn't see the various ditches and ridges falling to the ground because it was dark.

"Master, it seems like someone is knocking on the door?"

At night, Chen Xinjia, who had fallen asleep, was suddenly woken up by the eldest lady. After listening carefully, he also heard a gentle knock on the door outside, and a voice saying, "Please inform Mr. Chen, the prince has something to ask for."

Chen Xinjia's servants, who lived close to the outer courtyard, were all awakened. When the master heard the noise, he lay on the wall and took a peek.

Seeing a group of torch-bearing guards standing outside, I was so frightened that I fell off the wall, rushed to the backyard on my knees and crawled, and shouted into the room.

"Master, it's not good, the Jin Yiwei is knocking on the door outside, run away!"

"What? How is it possible? I haven't offended anyone recently. Why are Jin Yiwei here? Did he find out about me collecting money?"

"Ah!!! Master, what should I do? If I go to jail, I will have to shed my skin even if I don't die!"

When Chen Xinjia's eldest wife heard this shout, she panicked. After being taken away by the Jin Yiwei, could she still survive?

"No, Jin Yiwei was knocking on the door? And he didn't shout loudly?

Madam, please quickly put away the valuables in the house. I'll go out and take a look. Why are you standing there? Come and help me dress."

"Yes, sir"

Chen Xinjia noticed the problem. It didn't look like someone was coming to deal with him.

So he quickly ordered the servants in the house to put on his clothes.

After a flurry of tidying up, and after his wife hid the silver coins, Chen Xinjia, neatly dressed and with a serious face, opened the door.

"Eunuch Wang, why did you come here late at night?

Uh, Eunuch Wang, are you being beaten?"

Chen Xinjia, who originally had a stern expression on his face, almost laughed out loud when he looked at the group of Jin Yiwei outside who were in a state of embarrassment with injuries on their faces and hands.

Now, he could be sure that Jin Yiwei was not here to arrest him.

"Chen Shangshu, His Majesty needs to build a cement road in an area in the new military camp area. We don't know the details.

Aren’t you recently integrating soldiers from the Beijing camp who are willing to build roads? Lead a team of capable and smart veterans to go with us to level the road first.”

"On this matter, Eunuch Wang, can you tell me personally? Don't you have a walkie-talkie?"

"We are thinking that we have to leave the city anyway, so why not inform you directly."

Wang Chengen said this, but he was complaining in his heart.

If you don't do this, how can you, an old guy like you, fall asleep and get up again?

After Chen Ye uploaded the cement to the display window, Chongzhen also received the purpose of this thing and the precautions, so he took out the fully charged drone.

[Call Wang Banban, call Wang Banban, have you arrived at your location? Over!]

【Call the Emperor, call the Emperor, have arrived, finished.】

After receiving the answer, Chongzhen released the drone and controlled it to fly more than ten kilometers away according to the direction of the map.

After seeing Wang Chengen's ignition position, he ordered Wang Chengen to lead people to avoid it and pile the cement on the spot.

Half an hour later.

The sleepy Chen Xinjia blinked his eyelids, but he still had to accompany Wang Chengen here to instruct people on how to use cement.

"My lord, it's almost time to be ugly. Can you go back to sleep?"

"Chen Shangshu, this is a task ordered by His Majesty. Do you want to refuse?"

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything. Please work faster. Do you still want money?"

After hearing Wang Chengen's words, Chen Xinjia was sensible and did not respond. Wang Chengen was a popular figure in front of Chongzhen.

After quarreling with him, given Chongzhen’s temperament, what should we do if we let Chen Xinjia go to Liaodong tomorrow?

The soldiers from the Beijing camp who were brought over by Chen Xinjia were also very angry and their work was a bit slow. However, they had no choice but to work temporarily. Wang Chengen promised to give each of them fifty coppers.

That is to say, after staying up all night, everyone gritted their teeth and got to work.

Carrying water, mixing mud, adding stones to mix, running horses, leveling the ground, rolling the ground, laying cement, and scraping it with wooden boards.

After watching the whole process, Wang Chengen began to marvel again.

"Chen Shangshu, we have said before that these soldiers in the Beijing Camp are usually used to being bossed around by those who control thousands of households. This is better for building roads and houses than training for war."

"Um."

Sitting on the chair, Chen Xinjia had no interest in any of this. He chatted with Wang Chengen from time to time, but his eyes were completely closed.

At the end of the morning, a quick-drying cement road one hundred meters long and twenty meters wide was completed with the joint efforts of the sergeants.

"Father-in-law. Father-in-law."

"Huh? Oh, you're done, right? Let's go back and rest."

Wang Chengen looked at the already bright sky, but he didn't expect that he actually fell asleep and had an extra coat on him that his wife had put on him.

Looking next to him, Chen Xinjia was gone.

"Where is Chen Shangshu?"

"Chen Shangshu said that he had an early morning meeting today, so he went back to sleep first."

Wang Chengen looked at the concrete floor that was almost dry and did not continue to ask. Yesterday he called Chen Xinjia to come over. He was more likely to ask him to transfer people. After that, Chen Xinjia was of no use.

Keeping him is just for fun, since he is gone, forget it.

By the time Wang Chengen returned to the palace to report, the morning court had ended, and Chen Ye had also shuttled over and was beside Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, the owner.

The cement floor has been mixed with gravel, sand and soil as instructed, and after mixing, it is spread in the excavated road pit, about one foot thick."

"Well, shopkeeper, the runway is built next to the New Army barracks, so it can be easily protected."

Chongzhen looked at the map for Chen Ye, pointed at the location and explained.

"The location is okay. I'll go right away. I have to rush back in the evening. This way, the cooling time will return faster."

"I'm going too. I'm going too."

Chongzhen felt itchy. The last time he went out of the city, he was to review the soldiers, but this time it was different. This time he and Chen Ye were going to play with large drones.

He really couldn't wait to see the scenery of mountains and rivers outside the capital. The scenery seen through drones was not comparable to the satellite map Chen Ye gave him.

"That's okay. You're not afraid of assassination anyway. Change your clothes, put on a mask, and let's go together."

"Wang Banban, please arrange this immediately and don't allow anyone to know about my departure from the palace."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will take care of it immediately and make sure that no one else in the palace will know about it."

Wang Chengen, who had already slept, quickly accepted the order and then went to the palace to make arrangements.

Because both system users were in the same time and space, Chongzhen and Chen Ye were not afraid of accidents. Chongzhen put on a set of ordinary clothes and a mask, and left the Forbidden City with Chen Ye.

At the palace gate, Chen Ye released a sidecar motorcycle and asked Chongzhen to sit on the sidecar. Chen Ye started the car and drove towards the New Army barracks.

Along the road, Jin Yiwei rode on horseback to clear the way, followed by Dongchang Fanzi. They were very close to Chongzhen, and several of them often went in and out of the palace. Just by looking at his chin and eyes, he could already tell who Chongzhen was.

Therefore, the Jinyiwei and Dongchang fans were all on tenterhooks all the way, fearing that an assassin would come out somewhere and chop them all into pieces without saying a word.

Arriving smoothly to the outer city, Chongzhen looked surprised when he saw the quick-drying cement road that had been repaired overnight and that he had already done most of the work.

"Shopkeeper, how can this cement dry so quickly? Is it really as strong as a rock as you said?"

"It takes five hours to dry. It's still half dry now and can't be stepped on. Judging from the time, it will be ready in three hours."

Chen Ye saw that Chongzhen wanted to step on him, so he quickly stopped him. Suddenly he thought that there was still a need for someone to watch the plane, so he turned to look at Wang Chengen.

"By the way, Eunuch Wang, help me call Song Yingxing."

"Shop owner, wait a moment, we will send someone to go immediately."

"Why did the shop owner think of calling her Song Aiqing?"

Chongzhen was let go by Chen Ye, and he quickly stretched his foot towards the edge of the cement road, making a footprint in the almost dry cement, and then feeling funny, he made another footprint.

Chen Ye had a dark look on his face.

Chongzhen was embarrassed by being stared at by Chen Ye, so he pulled out his foot, looked at the series of footprints on the cement roadside, and laughed out loud.

"Song Yingxing was considered a relatively enlightened celebrity in the Ming Dynasty, so letting him come over to watch the plane take off would also give him some insight.

If you want someone to be loyal to you, you must have fame, fortune, and ability. You have to show what he doesn't understand and educate him, so that you can control him."

"I understand, it's because Song Aiqing is a famous person in history, right? Although the latter points are correct, my current knowledge is enough to educate him. Can Song Yingxing know what the moon looks like?"

Chongzhen said proudly and did not refute what Chen Ye said.

In the past, he believed in Yuan Dudu because he had little knowledge and lack of confidence. He could not control Yuan Dudu, so much so that the coffin was almost completely defeated by Yuan Dudu.

"Your Majesty, the shopkeeper, the people below have already set up two tents.

It’s just that the twenty-meter-long shelf room takes time.”
