"Rails?" Yang Boye and the two of them snorted at the same time.

"Yes, rails!" Zhao Hao said in a deep voice: "It can increase the capacity of Jingcheng Road by more than ten times!" ”

Yang Bo and Yang Sihe are no strangers to orbits.

After Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, the first thing he did was 'the same track and the same book'.

To this day, there are still two or three inches of track on the official road to accommodate the wheels, which can prevent the carriage from deflecting and greatly reduce the burden on the horses.

But weren't the tracks carved out of the road? How did it turn iron? Eryang doesn't understand.

"To put it simply, the original well road is filled with ballast and compacted, and then paved with sleepers, and then the sleepers are covered with rails! On such a track, the carriage will carry several times the original load, and the speed will be greatly increased, and it will be able to travel from Yangquan to Zhengding on the same day. ”

"Is it so powerful?" Yang Bo and Yang Sihe gasped. "Can it really be done?"

The importance of Jingcheng Road cannot be overstated, because it is the lifeline of transportation connecting the Jinzhong Basin with the North China Plain. Three hundred years later, Shanxi's first railway, the Zhengtai Railway, was built along the Jingcheng line.

The 'Zhengtai' is set to Taiyuan also. Zhengding is the Shijiazhuang of later generations, and Yangquan is at the midpoint of the Zhengtai line.

Zhao Hao was afraid that he would frighten Eryang by throwing out the 'Zhengtai Line' directly, so he first folded them in half and came to a 'Zhengyang Line'.

Eryang, especially Yang Bo, how can he not know what this 'Zhengyang Line' means to Shanxi? That means that Shanxi will be connected to the bustling North China Plain, and there will be no need to be just worried about northern Shaanxi, which is also bitter.

Yang Sihe thought that in that case, the population and the market would not be a problem.

What Yang Bo thought was that in that case, Shanxi's status in Daming would be greatly improved!

But even from Yangquan to Zhengding, there are 1780 miles of land. And it's going to lay railroad tracks......

Such a huge project involves all aspects, even if it is Yang Bo, a dignified official, he does not dare to play this package ticket!

"Of course it can be done!" Zhao Hao knew their concerns well, so he categorically cheered them up and said:

"Yangquan is a treasure land, in addition to coal, there is also a large amount of iron ore, which is an advantage that cannot be compared with other places, and it is fully equipped with the conditions for building a railway. Moreover, ironmaking will also consume a large amount of coal, and can promote the business of Shanxi company, this coal-iron joint operation model, is not as simple as one plus one equals two! ”

"Hmm." Eryang listened extremely seriously and nodded. Yang Sihe didn't dare to miss a word.

"Besides, let's talk about it, isn't this the second step?" Zhao Hao changed his words, and then relieved the pressure on the two of them: "It will take you a year or two to get Taiyuan to talk about it, right?" When I settle down in the place with my father, I will first pave a model road, and then Sihe and my brother will come over and see for myself if it can be done. If it can be done, I will build this road for you! ”

A fox is a fox after all, and there is always a moment when the tail is exposed......

It's just that at this time, even Yang Bo can't understand the importance of the right of way - it is the lifeblood of a province and a country!

Old Yang Bo is still afraid that he will regret it......

"Nephew, that's what you said!" Zhengyang Railway' will be handed over to you! Yang Bo immediately grabbed Zhao Hao's hand, and said in a voice like Hong Zhong: "You don't have to worry about the rest of the things, the old man will help you take care of it!" ”

"Okay, I promise. You always let go, you're going to break a bone. Zhao Hao wrinkled his face and gasped, but he completely covered up the color on his face.

The Zhengyang Road he threw out, as well as the future Zhengtai Road, is to closely link Shanxi with the Central Plains.

Save the Jin merchants from having no way out, and always run out. ran three times and ran twice, and as a result, he became a traitor...... If there were no rich iron ore and saltpeter resources in Shanxi, what would the female direct do to fight the officials and soldiers?

Or is it better to firmly attract their attention to the Central Plains and let them sell coal wholeheartedly than to sell the country?

Thinking that he might let Jin Shang avoid a stinking reputation in the future, Zhao Hao felt that they would respect him with a glass of vinegar......

Oh no, Pu'er.

~~

Yang Sihe asked Zhao Hao again, what should he do if he goes south?

Zhao Gongzi no longer opened Chrysostom, and only asked them to take the first two steps first.

"Alright, don't be satisfied." Yang Bo waved his hand and said to his nephew: "Nephew Zhao Xian is afraid that you will be greedy and chew too much." ”

In fact, the shrewd two men know that this half of the shares can only be exchanged for so many ......

But let them come up with more, but they are really reluctant.

I had to hold back my curiosity first, and wait until the first two steps really saw results.

Fortunately, the curiosity of Jin Shang has never been large.

~~

Before I knew it, we talked until noon.

Yang Sihe said goodbye and left, but Yang Bo enthusiastically left Zhao Hao, and called Wang Bengu and Lu Guangzu to his signature room...... Eat noodles.

This time, I won't talk about business, just some officialdom anecdotes and interesting things in Beijing.

And whether it is officialdom or Beijing, the most interesting thing in this period is done by Zhao Hao and his son......

Everyone said that Zhao Hao asked Zhao Shouzheng to carry him, and he went around half of Beijing City before going home, and they all laughed like no one.

"Virtuous nephew, your operation is really fucking sassy. That day, I heard that Zhao Zhuangyuan asked for his life for the people and made a direct admonition, but he was tragically beaten by the court staff, and the old man was stunned. Yang Bo laughed while peeling the garlic: "Could it be that we have opened a fake court and can't do it?" ”

The latter sentence is said to Wang Bengu.

Wang Shilang picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and in front of his boss, he also became playful. "Isn't it? Obviously, we are talking about Zhao Zhuangyuan's crime of beating the elder of Xiaoge. Why didn't you pay attention, Zhao Zhuangyuan became a persecuted loyal minister, but Xiaoge Lao became a street rat? ”

"It can be seen that justice is at ease in the hearts of the people." Zhao Hao was extremely thick-skinned, and said without feeling embarrassed: "Besides, my father has received the court staff." ”

"I think that Xiaoge is old now, and he definitely wants to exchange with Ling Zun." Lu Guangzu also smiled: "Even if he comes to accept this court staff?" It's also better than having people splash dirt on the door and throw garbage into the yard all day long......"

"Oh? And what's going on? Zhao Hao looked surprised, as if he didn't let him do it.

Generally speaking, if you want to elevate yourself, you sometimes have to belittle others.

If you want to forcibly elevate yourself, you have to forcibly belittle others......

Zhao Hao hired hundreds of ordinary people to go to the prime minister's mansion on West Chang'an Avenue every day to scold the street.

not only scolded the affairs of the capital, but also shook out the good things that the old Xu family did in Susong.

What's more, he also made up nursery rhymes and spread them everywhere in the capital.

In just a few days, Xu Gelao's positive image has been smeared enough.

Originally, the old man planned to go to Lingji Palace to say goodbye to the performance again before leaving.

Seeing that there were people outside scolding all day long, the old people were also upset and canceled the lectures.
