4356 Cement has to be grabbed too
Cixi in this era did not experience the taste of monopoly of power, so she was not as arrogant as Xiao Letian in his previous life!
At this time, Cixi felt that her life was at its peak. Her own son finally got married and took power. As soon as she came to power, she tripped her biggest political enemy. This is such a great thing!
As the water rises, the ship is high, so of course my own mother will follow you to show off your power. Look at this period of time, Ci'an will not come to the Forbidden City at all, but will cultivate in Beiyuan!
Moreover, when Cixi was married, she humiliated the Empress Arut. Zaichun also endured it and did not turn against her mother. At first, Cixi was a little worried, but later when she saw that Arut moved to the Yangxin Palace, she didn't dare to raise her tail at all!
All aspects encouraged her arrogant arrogance, and she was the most arrogant and ignorant at this time!
As soon as she heard that Isha was not committing a crime because of a romantic case, her mind immediately became active!
"Your Majesty is just a fool. How can you send the great guard to guard the spirits casually? Well, there is no fault, so take me to see Your Majesty!"
"Ah?" Li Lianying's face turned pale. "The Queen Mother... How can I go? Don't be impulsive, oh, wait for me..."
From ancient times to the present, if this woman falls in love, her IQ will basically decrease. Of course, Cixi cannot say that she fell in love with Isha, but don’t forget that this is the time when the freshness between them has not subsided, and it is the time to be sticky!
Even if Isha's body is greedy, Cixi has to save her!
In Cixi's heart, wouldn't she give her mother a guard when she asked her son for a guard? How could she reject this little face? She punished her daughter-in-law for a night before, but didn't Zai Chun say anything?
Regardless of Li Lianying's dissuasion, Cixi went to see Emperor Tongzhi before taking the lamp. At this time, Emperor Tongzhi from the Yangxin Palace was watching the hot samples sent by the Office of the Interior!
The Style Lei family has always designed gardens for the royal family. Now there is no garden for them, but the craftsmanship cannot be left behind. Zaichun had ordered the Style Lei family to produce a batch of high-precision sand tables in the Gyeonggi area for him.
At the same time, there are also hot samples from the large iron factory. Now the first batch of hot samples have been sent in. Zai Chun and his confidants are looking at the huge sand table with interest, which replicated the terrain of the northern suburbs of the capital.
Master Qing San pointed to the sand table with a wooden stick and said, "Your Majesty, look, this is Deshengmen, Andingmen, the Old Summer Palace is here, Xiangshan, Yuquan Mountain, Qinghe... This is what our future iron factory looks like..."
"Blast furnace, coking plant, slag material yard... workshop, factory... along the upper reaches of Qinghe River is a large residential area. Your Majesty, look north, this is Shunyi, Changping, and the city walls at this edge. This is the Great Wall..."
"According to the current progress, the Chinese engineers who supported him said that they would ensure that the first furnace of steel will be refined for His Majesty in two years, and the trains from Tianjin and our capital will be opened to traffic in three years!"
Zaichun's eyes lit up. Looking at the fine mountains, rivers, dense forests and villages on the sand table, and the Jingshi Iron and Steel Factory, which occupies the best position in the northern suburbs of the capital, he rubbed his hands excitedly!
"Can you get a little faster? I can't wait. I can afford the reward. Can I get one and a half years ahead of time?"
Lord Baofeng smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't be so impatient. It's already a high efficiency that I would never think of even killing me. Do you need to be faster? It's impossible..."
Zai Chun looked up and smiled at him, "Mr. Baosheng, you probably don't know... The progress of the Chinese people's pursuit project is still another way!"
"Let's go back and tell those Chinese support engineers! Don't hide that little cement quota secretly! Continue to increase the amount of concrete used in my engineering!"
"To the present, the most effective way to improve engineering efficiency is to promote cement on a large scale. The south is called Shuimengding... We also use blue bricks to pave the roads and red bricks to build houses, people fill them directly in concrete!"
"Our wood also needs to be processed by carpenters, and even needs to be dried. People tie steel bars into a cylinder and then poured into cement directly to wait for solidification!"
"The north side of Tanggu Special Zone... is close to Tangshan, and the Kaiping line goes directly to Luanzhou, which has allowed Chinese businessmen to invest in many cement factories. The whole sky over there has been covered by dust, and it doesn't look like a human scene!"
"This is a very important factor in their construction projects! As long as we can get the cement quota, our projects can also be accelerated!"
Fuqing's subordinate Shi Shan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know that this cement quota is really hard to grab! Now the Chinese are building a large-scale construction in the concession of our Qing Dynasty, and various places have begun to select sites to build cement factories!"
"Some areas are not suitable for building cement factories, so you can only rely on external transportation! The supply of cement in the Tangshan area is in short supply. On the one hand, it needs to be sold in large quantities to the south, and on the other hand, it is even more terrifying!"
Shi Shui added, "Yes, what's even more terrifying is that the talent is being removed in large quantities! Boiling cement is also a technical job. The south is going to build a factory, Luzon, and Borneo also needs to build a factory. How many technical talents are removed by the head of state!"
"Without technical talents, cement plants in Tangshan area cannot expand their production capacity!"
"Your Majesty! Now only your face is good...why do you write a letter to the head of state? Get a quota of tens of thousands of tons of cement. You have enough cement to make the progress faster!"
Bao Jing and the old ministers were stunned when they heard this. Who knew that there were so many twists and turns in it, and they kept sighing in surprise, "Oh... I've learned a lot today. So this is the case?"
Zai Chun laughed and scolded, "I have to do everything myself? I'll raise you for free! Alas... I can't just give up my face and send a telegram to the master!"
"Your Majesty! Don't just ask for quotas. If you find a group of engineers in the head of state, we have to boil cement and build a factory..." Fu Qing reminded on the side.
"Damn, I don't know how to ask for talents yet? Use your reminder..."
Just as the king and his ministers were laughing and making a peaceful life, Da Sixi suddenly smiled and walked in with awkward smile, "Your Majesty... The Empress Dowager arrived and said she wanted to see Your Majesty!"
Before Zai Chun could speak, Cixi had already rushed in carelessly. The ministers of the Xihun Pavilion were so shocked that they knelt down and kowtowed to pay their respects!
Cixi's actions were actually very unruly. There was a difference between inside and outside the Qing Dynasty harem, and men and women were always very particular about the defense!
Otherwise, how could there be a ruler from behind the curtain? That is, women in the harem cannot show up and meet with the ministers of the previous dynasty!
Even if you want to meet, you have to make plans in advance and break in without saying anything!
Fortunately, Cixi had been upgraded to the empress dowager, and her son got married and became a mother-in-law. According to the etiquette and rules at that time, women who are mother-in-law still have some relaxed privileges!
