"As Xiangzhou is set, it's okay to build this road all the way."

"It is said that there is still a road to be built in the capital, which is to go to Chang'an City."

"There is such a saying, but this is a loss-making transaction, and there will be no money back for three to five years."

"Didn't you hear that the Road Administration Office has distributed 'rail tickets'?"

"You want it? I still want it!"

Among the teahouses in Beijing, there are many new high-ranking people who take a walk to drink tea. Some get idle positions, and some get sent. In short, the first month of the 26th year of Zhenguan was very lively.

The more coal burns, the more coal transportation business is a big job. Nowadays, coal is still divided, and some coal is used for the royal use. Although ordinary people can use it, they have to queue up or pay more.

Ordinary coals are transported in and dug out.

They are all expensive careers, and they can’t play without their family background.

But the same is true, as long as you spend money in, it will be like farming for a year and you will not encounter natural disasters, and you will have a steady harvest every year.

Unlike farming, the harvest is quite good.

Although he officially obtained the status of the governor of Hubei, Zhang De still stayed in the capital and had no intention of going south to return to Wuhan.

However, the news from Hubei is far more exciting than Zhang De's direct return to Wuhan.

Jing Xiang was pacified so quickly that it exceeded most people's imagination. Moreover, Xue Rengui, the lucky one who accompanied people to get married, actually achieved such amazing results.

Three guns to determine Jingzhou... are so powerful that China!

When Mr. Li occasionally went to Luoyang Palace to inspect government affairs, he also praised Xue Rengui repeatedly, saying that he was Guan Yunchang of the Zhenguan Dynasty.

What followed was the second wave of "shocking China", which still had something to do with Xue Rengui. The government and the country were still in a state of terror. Another news came from Hubei that the "Gucheng Cai Family" was appointed as the primary school and general counsel for the two prefectures of Jingxiang and Zhuxian County.

The position of consultant has always been there, but most of them are staff members.

But this time, the Ministry of Education gave the position of "doing cheaply" and "advisor" to be considered a formal demolition.

He has a salary and a rank, but his power is relatively weak, and he is a position with a strong voice and low strength.

But now for the "Gucheng Cai family", it is simply tailor-made.

Moreover, there are also many people with "high positions and power", such as Cai Xing's nephew, Cai Sanlang and Cai Jing, who are the "Baishui General Teacher". He has to take charge of the primary school in three counties and one town on the north and south sides of Baishui. He has to take charge of the work in detail.

Unlike others, Cai Sanlang studied at Jiangxia Middle School and Linzhangshan Academy one after another. If nothing unexpected happens, it would be Zhang De's last "disciple". It is absolutely reasonable for the Ministry of Education to bring such a young man out.

He even slapped Zhang De's flattery.

The outside world knows that "Gucheng Cai family" and "Nanping Cai family" are not in conflict, so in the eyes of upstarts in the capital, the fuck is that after the Cai family was fucked by tens of thousands of people, they are still willing to kneel down and lick... They are so cheap that they are extremely cheap.

This makes people wonder what kind of thing that Xue Rengui, who accompanied people to join the prostitute, did to force and humiliate Cai to this extent. Can they still work for Xue Rengui honestly?

Thinking about it from the perspective of others, I suddenly felt creepy.

"Shocking China" can be done once, and twice.

Even for the upstarts, the second "shocking China" has a stronger deterrence.

The old nobles who knew the details were not in the mood to reveal the truth. They said that the "Cai family in Gucheng" actually hated the second and third houses of this sect to death. These big families who have been married to "Shandong people" for hundreds of years are now unable to deal with themselves, just because they are afraid that Dong Li and the native dogs in Jiangnan are completely shameless... How dare they care about other people's affairs?

As for complaining about a certain local dog or an emperor, there is no chance of complaining about it, the current situation seems to be that there is no chance of complaining.

Cui family in Qinghe is now digging sand in the "Kunlun Sea" so well. They hope to return to the Central Plains to complain. They don't know that such a story will happen only in the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

But I never expected that in February, the nobles in Beijing had not had time to digest the shock brought by the Jingxiang tribe. The Hubei Provincial Governor's Office joined forces with the Inner Government, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Works, and the General Administration of Road Administration to prepare for the construction of the road north of Xiangzhou.

But the road was not disclosed at the beginning. It was not until the General Administration of Roads was suddenly reorganized into the Ministry of Transport on the second day of the second month of the second month. Du Chuke in Hongwen Pavilion suddenly became a bachelor's degree. Only then did people understand how powerful the power of betraying the old clan of Jingxiang was to the point.

If you don’t kill Jingxiang Group, you will only build any road to Dengzhou and then end here.

When Jingxiang Group was crushed by Xue Rengui, the young supervisor of the Hubei Provincial Police Department, the situation became clear in an instant.

The road from Nanyang to Rang County may not be very high, but now, in order to connect with Xiangyang, the formal process originally planned has been completed in February.

The true appearance of the Ministry of Transportation was on the second day of February.

Du Chuke participated in a series of large-scale national dynasty rallies on this day as the Minister of Transportation.

At the Hongwen Pavilion meeting, he officially became the new "giant" of the empire as a bachelor's.

And the line of minions on the surface that contributed to all this was still Xue Rengui.

Many of the policemen who scattered from Xiangyang went directly to Rang County. There were a lot of people seeing them, which naturally made people think of them.

As a result, the "rail bonds" that were originally digested within Hubei Province were once again elevated to the overall level of the empire.

The "Han'an Line" can no longer satisfy the appetite of upstarts in Beijing, and Emperor Li, Empress Changsun, was quite indifferent to me. Based on the long-standing argument, she boldly planned the "three vertical and one horizontal" railway line.

Among them, the "three vertical lines" are based on the "Han'an Line", and then the east and west are based on Xiangzhou and Haozhou as the transfer centers, and a "rail transport envoy" is set up to preside over the construction of future northbound railway lines.

The Haozhou route north is to connect Xuzhou and Yanzhou, and finally connect to Jishui, which is equivalent to an important transportation route in the vast area north of the South Canal.

Xiangzhou went north through Dengzhou and finally entered the capital according to the original planned route. Its end point was consistent with the "Han'an Line", but it allowed Jingxiang to contact and communicate with China more directly.

Due to geographical and geomorphology, these "three verticals" consume little steel and the project difficulty is relatively simple. The urban population, raw material resources, agricultural and sideline products along the way are extremely rich, which is beneficial to the court without any harm.

It is even possible to regulate the central government in resource allocation through the "three verticals" route. This demand is the instinct for all the friends of Hongwen Pavilion to realize their political ambitions.

"One horizontal line" further expands the original "Beijing-Luo Line", starting from Luoyang, further eastward, passing Zhengzhou, Bianzhou, Caozhou, and Songzhou, and finally connecting to Xuzhou.

In the long run, the utilization rate of the South Canal may be greatly reduced, but the impact in the short term is minimal. Because the scale of the project is beyond imagination to achieve the "three verticals and one horizontal". Just one "Han'an Line" is already a huge problem. The total investment volume is astonishingly expensive for Wuhan, and it is a long time to recover the money.

Calculated according to the cost of the "Han'an Line", no matter which route "three vertical and one horizontal" is an investment of tens of millions of yuan.

This kind of long-term large-scale investment is no longer a game that ordinary tycoons can participate in.

Without the support of the central court and local governments, ordinary tyrants would not even have the courage to reach out when facing investment of this scale.

However, any new Zhenguan newcomer who has read newspapers for two years is not unfamiliar with the new thing of "railway".

Before the East Palace of the "Han'an Line", Luoyang Daily had been out for more than a year, and various "steam engine" models and applications have been well known.

The most famous one is the "Yongxing Elephant Machine". Even now, local giants who have learned some technology from Wuhan, as long as they involve coal mining and coal processing industries, copying a "Yongxing Elephant Machine" is not even a 2.0 version, and they will not lose money if they are made.

Elite grassroots have basically understood the application of new technologies.

Therefore, when Hongwen Pavilion announced the "three vertical and one horizontal" railway line to the public, Xue Rengui's name just flashed through the newspaper, and became familiar with the tabloids of the hotel, and magazines, but this did not prevent him from "shocking China" for the third time.

Even though there are few pages, it is said that Xue Rengui is the "guardian saint" of two railway lines in Hubei Province, but there is no intention of stopping every few days.

The entire officialdom and the people's atmosphere gradually pushed Xue Rengui's image up.

Whether in Hubei or in Beijing, Xue Rengui can definitely be regarded as a "political star".

Knowledgeable people and old ministers of the two dynasties have keenly grasped a change, that is, the previous method of "raising hope" may completely fail after 26 years of Zhenguan.

The market, or the Zhenguan Dynasty's monarch, ministers and people, each of them, took out a Kaiyuan Tongbao and invested in something, and they had to see its full picture and its reality. The truth needs to be exposed, description needs to be vivid.

The old "Wine is not afraid of deep alleys" is completely meaningless at this moment.

Perhaps after a long period of impetuousness, people will return to nature, but now, the nature of "pursuing profit" has made people more believe in Xue Dading, Wang Zhongdi, Xue Rengui and other long-known "capable officials".

Those lonely people who "hidden merits and fame" will choose to put them aside, regardless of whether they are really talented or not, in order to safely achieve large-scale appreciation of their own wealth.

Only when they take out their achievements and expose them to the sun will they be sought after by people.

In view of this, the reasons for the shock of those top elites who saw the inner changes in the face of Xue Rengui's third "shocking China".

Even Tang Jian, who was used to the strong winds and waves, always treated him calmly, sighed with shock when he was drinking at Zhang De, "The changes in the Zhenguan administration began today."

"What? Maoyou Gong thought it was inappropriate?"

Lao Zhang smiled and poured Tang Jian a glass of wine. The rice wine in February warmed the stomach and was very friendly to the old man.

After taking a sip, Tang Jian nodded and shook his head: "It's right or not, to be honest, I really don't know. Fuck me, I will never fall behind in my life and think that I am a hero of the world. Even last year, I don't think I'm missing the size of a junior like Xue Rengui."

“Look at it now…”
