Wang Xing's righteousness was awe-inspiring, but after seeing Chang Zhifu, this old thing entered the state, and it was completely a lion's mouth.

"Lord Fuzun, now the old man has raised three million taels of start-up funds, and the overall operation of the road construction has begun. However, the project is huge, and there are too many overheads...... First of all, I hope that the imperial court can provide a batch of old grain from Taicang. ”

"Stale grain?" Chang Zhifu frowned, "What do you want Chen Liang for?" Isn't the new grain fragrant? ”

Wang Xing said with a straight face: "How can those widows deserve to eat new grain?" They are doing evil, and it is good for the old man to give them stale grain to eat...... I am ready to pay 10,000 taels, hoping that the imperial court can provide 200,000 stone grain! ”

Get lost!

Chang Zhifu is about to scold his mother, in Yingtian, the cheapest grain, Zhancheng rice from Annan, also costs 380 Wen and one stone, even if it is old grain, there are more than 250 Wen, your old thing is 10,000 taels to buy 200,000 stone, why don't you go and grab it?

"Lord Fuzun, it is said that it is old grain, but in fact, it is no problem for you to give a little bran and bran. The old man only needs 200,000 stones. ”

Chang Zhifu snorted: "You treat people as piglets, right?" ”

Wang Xing didn't care at all, "The old man agreed as a prince...... Let's talk about land requisition...... The old man means that he hopes that the court will help pay in advance, and it is best to pay in full, if not, it will be eighty percent...... Also, the old man hopes to provide a loan, the sooner the better, and it is better to give me a ...... tomorrow."

Wang Xing put forward more than a dozen conditions in one breath, all of which made people's faces black, and by the end, Chang Zhifu was already dry and couldn't say anything.

Once this person is in business, once he only focuses on profits, he can do anything, and he can say anything!

If you have the surname Wang, you should be a person!

At such an age, you are not afraid of leaving a stench for 10,000 years!

"I can't make the decision, I have to ask the Taifu to decide."

Wang Xing smiled, "Then it's annoying Lord Laofuzun, come back to visit you when you are old, don't worry, it will trouble you!" Wang Xing walked briskly, hummed a little song and went down.

Chang Zhifu almost wanted to die headlong, but in the end, he had no choice but to hang his head and go to Liu Chun.

"Master Taifu, there is no way for the lower officials, this surnamed Wang is simply inches, eating people without spitting out bones...... I see, in order to build this road, he can't dig up anything except the ancestral grave, can you come forward, talk to him, and let him restrain ......"

Liu Chun laughed and interrupted Chang Zhifu's words.

"Use the merchant here! What if they dig out their minds and keep costs down? If the imperial court is allowed to do it, the officials will expropriate the people without compensation, and they will occupy the land without compensation, and the result will be even worse. I really don't care about his current methods...... You just have to stick to it, no matter how he repairs it, the specifications of the railway must meet the requirements, and you can't make a set of standards by yourself. When the time comes, the court wants to take it back, and this is the property of the court! ”

Coming out of Liu Chun, Chang Governor sighed in the sky, no wonder he can only be the prefect, Liu Chun can live in a good place, and he is ranked as a master!

There is a gap in this realm!

Since there is a gap, then you must obediently listen to the arrangements of others.

The Chang Governor was very loyal to implement Liu Chun's request.

Actually, this guy still forgot a little bit...... If something goes wrong, not only Wang Xing is the one who bears the blame, but he, the prefect of Yingtian, is also likely to fill the pit.

Anyway, for Daming, what is needed most is the railway, no matter how much it costs, as long as the railway can be built, it will already make a lot of money.

Receiving almost all-out support from the imperial court, Wang Xing quickly tossed.

About two months later, not far from the eighth year of Yongle, a huge red paper was posted in the preparatory office, on which a line of large characters with silver hooks was painted on it, announcing the completion of the initial project of the railway, and everyone was welcome to watch the ceremony.

When the news came out, let alone ordinary people, even Liu Chun was a little hesitant, did this old man Wang have a bad brain, or drank too much and said drunken words!

At this time, even the land acquisition has not been completed, and the ordered steam locomotives will not be delivered until the first half of next year.

What are you braggating about, old thing?

"Master, Wang Xing sent you an invitation, let's go, or don't we go?" Zhu Gaosui asked hesitantly.

Liu Chun looked at the invitation, it was still written by the old man himself, and the calligraphy was really good.

"Go, why don't you go! If he doesn't succeed, he will change again! Liu Chun said viciously.

"Change?" Zhu Gaosui was dumbfounded, "Master, isn't there no one?" ”

Liu Chun chuckled, "What do you know? In the past two days, a merchant surnamed Zhuang has been in operation, planning to mortgage his family's 30,000 looms to raise 1 million taels and fight for the right to build a railway. ”

Zhu Gaosui blinked his eyes, and he finally remembered who this businessman surnamed Zhuang was.

In terms of character and financial resources, he is much stronger than Wang Xing, but it's a pity that this person is too conservative, and I don't know if he can take on a big responsibility?

Let's see, if the king can't do it, replace him!

The master and apprentice agreed to attend, and now Zi Wang Xing was very happy, Taifu and Zhao Wang both nodded, what else did the others have to be reserved!

Sending invitations one by one, Cao Guogong Li Xian, Ying Tian stayed behind Xia Yuanji, and other celebrities from all walks of life, Ying Tian, officials and gentry from all over Suzhou, even the Jimingshan School, and the Royal Scientific Research Society did not let go.

Everyone was invited.

The old man Wang Xing also got a red silk robe, and if you look closely, you will find that on the red silk, there are even red thread embroidered flowers, which perfectly interprets low-key luxury.

There are also two pieces of spring green jade on the belt.

Big red with big green, people who are almost seventy are stunned to make a feeling of being fifty years old.

His face was full of spring breeze, and he greeted Liu Chun with a smile.

"Taifu, King Zhao, the old man is polite."

Liu Chun nodded slightly, Zhu Gaosui coughed, leaned into Wang Xing's ear and whispered: "If the emperor's grandfather is alive, your head will be gone!" ”

Wang Xing's face was full of indifference, and he said with a smile: "Only in the prosperous era of Yongle can there be such a situation." The old man is just for the prosperous Ming Dynasty...... Add color! ”

What a shame!

Zhu Gaosui snorted angrily: "You'd better not mess up, otherwise you'll have a good look!" ”

Wang Xing is full of confidence, playing smashed, non-existent!

Speaking of which, Wang Xing is not an ordinary scholar, let alone a corrupt Confucian...... He was a military counselor in the army, and he knew the way to use troops and won by surprise.

On the battlefield, isn't it just more than operation!

With the old man's experience, who are you afraid of? Who can overcome me?

Wang Xing invited Taifu and King Zhao into the viewing platform, and the rest of the guests also arrived.

The old man's face was full of spring breeze, and he hugged his fists at the big guy and said: "Princess, the old man studied at the age of ten, practiced martial arts at the age of fifteen, and practiced martial arts for more than fifty years...... Unexpectedly, the Taifu favored and the princes helped each other, so that the old man had the opportunity to show his skills. ”

"Building the railway, this is the last thing the old man has to do. The old man has already chosen a cemetery at the back of this station, and when the old man dies, he will bury me here, and listen to the train passing by every day, so that the old man can smile at Jiuquan......"

Lose your marbles!

It's completely insane!

If you have the surname Wang, you can brag!

is still buried next to the railway, aren't you afraid that you won't be at peace after death?

But don't say it, it works, at least many people shed tears, especially some young students...... is really worthy of being an example of Confucian businessmen, Mr. Wang is so touching, amazing!

There are also some reporters who immediately thought of the title: Do your best, life and death together!

Wang Xing saw that the beautiful words had an effect, and his heart was overjoyed. But the most important thing is to take out something, otherwise Taifu won't rub sand in his eyes.

"Everyone, please see, this is the result of the first phase of the old man, everyone look here."

He pointed to a particularly tall house, from which a railway stretched to the east, for a total of about thirty miles.

This is the result of Wang Xing's time in this time, in order to build this road, there have been hundreds of Japanese laborers exhausted, but the old king does not care at all.

Ci is not in charge of the army, let alone doing business?

"Look, everyone!"

He once again made everyone's eyes look at him, Zhu Gaosui snorted coldly slightly, "Master, he made this similar to the second brother, but he was much more attentive than the second brother." ”

Yes, Zhu Gaoxu built a temporary reed shed, and people even got the house out...... But the problem is to look at the things inside, Zhu Gaoxu is experimenting with a real train, what does Wang Xing's old goods have to show to the big guys?

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the mystery to be revealed.

As the two iron doors opened, two tall and stout horses appeared, and the two animals walked forward with steady steps, and a carriage behind them appeared in front of everyone.

Zhu Gaosui was not interested when he saw it...... He's even been on a real train, so what's the point of getting a horse-drawn carriage?

Zhu Gaosui looked disdainful, but Wang Xing was a spiritual leader, and both eyes turned into light bulbs, full of brightness!

"Look, everyone! Some people may say, isn't it just a carriage? What's new? The old man wants to tell everyone that the secret is on this railroad track. ”

Wang Xing walked over quickly, pointed to the rails, and said with a smile: "With this rail, the capacity of the carriage can be doubled!" That's double! ”

"Let's think about how many people there are, how much food and how many goods will be transported! How many people are going to travel! As long as we build the track inside and outside the city, even if we don't use trains for the time being, we can double the capacity! Double! How much profit is there? ”

Wang Xing boasted that the other merchants were indeed interested, and they looked closely and found that the old man still had reservations, and the goods loaded in the carriage were almost three times that of ordinary carriages, and the profits were indeed amazing!

The merchant surnamed Zhuang was already red-eyed at the moment...... Only Zhu Gaosui, his eyes widened angrily, and he roared in a low voice: "Master, this, isn't this a method that my second brother has used a long time ago?" How do you let this old thing learn to fool people? ”

Liu Chun sighed, "This is the use of business wizards...... But don't worry, being a teacher won't let your second brother suffer. ”
