It's a big deal, and it's so important to go out and play traffic.

At this time, there are no cars and airplanes, even the carriage is hard and the ground, and the carriage can make your stomach droop if you don't get sick for a few days.

The new cement official road has also been repaired for almost a year, and Liu Hongjian has never had time to ask.

"A few days before the new official road, Fan Daren, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, also told me that the meaning of the cabinet was ...... Suspension of maintenance of official roads. Zhu Cihong said a little embarrassed.

Since he said this, he must have agreed with the cabinet's opinion, but it was not easy to say it directly, after all, he had his approval for the construction of the new cement official road.

The problem is that he underestimated the cost of repairing the cement road, since last year to the present, the northern section of the new official road has been repaired from the capital to Kaifeng, Henan, and the southern section has been repaired from Wuchang to Ji'an, and the progress has been completed by two-fifths, costing a total of more than 28.9 million taels of silver.

This is not counting the other material expenditures of the Ministry of Industry, if the official road from Beijing to Guangzhou is repaired according to the original plan, it will cost at least more than 10 million taels of silver.

And according to Liu Hongji's previous plan, except for the Yellow River, the Great River and other moats, the rest of the rivers should be bridged, this amount of work is even greater, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, there are many rivers, if it is really repaired without discount, the silver in the treasury will cost at least one-third.

In addition, the earthquake in Henan, the imperial court accumulated more than 1.1 million stone of uncle's disaster relief grain, countless cotton clothes and covers, and spent millions of taels in the early stage.

He Zhu Cihong...... It's distressing!

Like his father Chongzhen, this child has not had a good life when he was a child, and he knows that silver is not easy to come by, so he can't wait to live like his father Chongzhen, one or two pieces of silver are broken into two petals.

So, he wanted to break his promise.

"A saint surnamed Lu once said that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and the emperor can't be short-sighted!" Liu Hong gradually admonished.

At first, he told Zhu Cihong that the cost of repairing the cement official road would be very high, and he wanted to win this unprecedented project in the name of Xishan Shanghe, and then collect tolls.

However, the imperial court still disagreed, so he had to repair it himself, and now it was okay, his silver was used to open Fuming money houses in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and where was there still working capital to repair roads.

What's the matter if you throw it away halfway through, is it all in vain?

Liu Hong gradually got better, talked to Xiao Zhu again about the benefits of road repair, and suggested that he set up checkpoints on the repaired road section to collect highway tolls to recover the funds, which dispelled the idea of stopping road construction.

But judging from Zhu Cihong's complexion, it was still very painful.

Liu Hong gradually looked at this miser's appearance and became angry, and he didn't want to think about where the silver in the treasury came from, it was all he robbed box by box!

Keep the sweat of this king to spend money on you, what are you reluctant to do, it's a big deal that this king will go to sea to grab some again.

The descendants of China are good anywhere, and there is only one point that makes people criticize, that is, they like to keep money when they have it, either in the bank or to buy real estate, but they don't know that money has its value only when it is circulated.

Fortunately for future generations, after all, there is the country's macroeconomic regulation and control, and the country has the ability to mobilize domestic demand and revitalize the market.

But now it's different, if it weren't for his tossing back and forth like a-stirring stick, now four-fifths of the silver in the Ming Dynasty is in the hands of nobles, corrupt officials, landlords, and profiteers, and this group of people would rather throw the silver in the cellar if it is moldy.

As a result, there is too little money in circulation, and prices rise as a result, and it is the people who suffer in the end.

According to Liu Hongchuan's original plan, it was originally to spend the silver in the treasury, whether it was to build roads or build large workshops, so as to stimulate the production of the people and scatter the silver at the same time.

Only when people have money can they afford to buy things, right? In this way, Xishan Business is only done by other merchants, right? If a merchant has a business to do, the imperial court can collect business taxes, right?

Xiao Zhu doesn't understand such a simple economic principle, and those courtiers who have lived for most of their lives don't understand?

He didn't believe it, but he didn't bother to care.

After returning from the palace, Liu Hongjian still stayed in Xishan to accompany his wife and children, so that Zhu Cihong held a banquet in the palace and invited hundreds of officials, he didn't go, he didn't like to be lively, but he didn't like to be lively with a group of uncles.

However, Uncle Han came to Xishan after the second assistant, which means that he can't be so maverick, and the relationship with the courtiers still has to be maintained.

Liu Hongjian didn't take it seriously, if he wasn't maverick, he wouldn't be him, what is a maverick, just like the Eastern Evil Yellow Pharmacist?

People just don't like to go with the flow, and they have to mix with a group of flies and dogs to be indistinguishable from each other, so they are called gregarious?

It's just that he also knows that Uncle Han is for his good, after all, the impeachment of him has never stopped, and it seems that this group of people is not enough to show their sense of existence if they don't impeach him.

However, for such a flying pigeon's fire-like behavior, Liu Hongjian just wanted to say to them that the Lord didn't care at all.

Compared with other powerful ministers of the Ming Dynasty, such as Yan Song, Zhang Juzheng, and even Liu Jin, Wei Zhongxian, etc., whether it is an internal minister or a foreign minister, they are all powerful ministers above 10,000 people under one person.

But Liu Hong gradually has one thing different from them, he never interacts with courtiers, even Uncle Han does not see him once a month, and all his proposals are from the position of seeking the benefit of the people.

is also due to his character, he is rich but not greedy, and has power but not love, which is also the reason why Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu regard it as an absolute dependence.

It was almost the time of the front and back feet, and six days later, the queen Chen gave birth to a daughter, named Zhu Heke.

As soon as he learned the news, Liu Hong gradually realized a problem, maybe there was another moth.

If Empress Chen gave birth to a son, even if it was a second son, the courtiers would have agreed to have a son-in-law, but Chen was unlucky enough to give birth to a daughter.

Liu Hongjian can almost think of the embarrassment of Zhu Cihong's harem, then Qin Guifei was already favored, and she gave birth to an eldest son, and the queen's situation was difficult.

In line with the principle of not finding trouble for himself if he has nothing to do, he doesn't bother to care about Zhu Cihong's harem when his own harem has not been completed.

However, he didn't want to find trouble, but things found him, on the fourth day of Queen Chen's birth of the eldest princess, an uninvited guest came to Xishan Villa.

"Lord Wang, the concubine is invited." A middle-aged eunuch stood at the door with a whisk in his hand, his tone could not tell good or evil, but he did not have much respect.

Liu Hongjian was riding a big horse with his son in the courtyard, and his gege, Ling Yu, and Ling Xue were applauded under the support of Yang Xue and other women, and when he saw a eunuch coming to the door, Liu Hong's brows gradually furrowed.

"Which one are you?" Liu Hong gradually stood up with an unkind face and motioned for Fat Tiger to play with his son.

It is the new Dongchang factory supervisor, the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi eunuch Fat Dahai came here, and he had to smile and say good things, for the beardless eunuch in front of him, Liu Hong gradually became surprisingly disgusted.

"Our family is the eunuch Wang Yuan, and the concubine Niangniang sent our family to invite the prince into the palace." Seeing that Liu Hong's face gradually turned gloomy, Wang Yuan immediately smiled again.

Relying on the momentum of Chen Guifei in the palace, Wang Yuan was used to being at ease, and when he left the palace, he forgot that he was a slave.

Maybe in the eyes of the foreign ministers, this Anguo County King is an unprovoked existence, but in his eyes, it is not the case, he knows the ability of the concubine.

"I'm not free, please go back!" Liu Hong gradually waved his hand, and didn't even look at Wang Yuan.

PS: Recommend a book "Northern Song" Kou Ji's soul penetrated the Northern Song Dynasty and became the grandson of Kou Zhun through the ages, as a standard official of the third generation, he should have walked the horse and lived the most arrogant life.

However, when he entered Beijing with a letter from his cheap father inviting him to Bianjing to enjoy his wealth, he found out that he was ......

Grandfather Kou Zhun seems to be cold!
