"The child understands the importance of the matter, and the father does not have to worry, there are few workers here who can speak Chinese, and even if they know anything, they cannot tell others. They were so nervous when they first arrived here that they didn't dare to leave the camp easily. During this time, the work is also busy, and with your pro-army guards, outsiders can't fly in even if they have wings. ”

Wang Qi was not too worried about security, 80 percent of the engineering troops under his command were all strong people of all ethnic groups in Western Xia who had just been trained for more than three months, and all their family members were detained on Ganliang Road, and the language was not yet understood.

"Is there a big engineering problem?" In addition to arranging personnel exchanges, Hong Tao also had to ask about the construction of the bridge, this time it was not a fool's errand, but really to build the bridge.

"There is no big problem, in recent years, several cement kilns have been built on both sides of the river, and the steel parts have also found contractors and sent them by boat from Fujian Road and Zizhou Road. Manpower is sufficient, and the construction on both sides of the strait at the same time will be much faster, and the bridge piers can be built before winter. ”

It is said to be a bridge across the river, but in fact it is connected by four chain bridges, and the construction technology is not much more difficult than the chain bridge on the Futuo River. It is nothing more than the use of many materials and the large scale of the project, Wang Qi is still very sure.

"Don't rush the deadline too much, then the casualties will be very large. If you train them to maturity, they can come in handy in the future, you can't just have a bridge, you have to have a road. ”

Hong Tao was not worried about Wang Qi's technical ability, nor was he worried about his control over the engineering corps. The kid was a natural building contractor who was very good at putting together a group of reluctant strangers and was genuine.

But he is more similar to Wang Shi in one place, that is, he treats slaves more ruthlessly. This can be said to be with themselves, but they only do it when they are forced to do it, they are even better, and they really don't treat human life as human life.

"Daddy is going to communicate the north-south passage!" As soon as he heard this, Wang Qi immediately showed joy.

Over the years, he has been running around the country, guiding the promotion societies of various states and provinces to use non-governmental forces to build standard hardened roads, using stones to build those that are conditional, and using cement three-layer soil if there are none.

But no matter what kind of highway it is, he has an accurate plan in his mind, all of which serve one goal, connecting the main road from north to south of the Great Song Dynasty and the branch line that diverges in the shape of a fishbone to the east and west.

Seventy percent of this plan has already been completed, and it is only necessary to build a few connecting points and build bridges across the Yangtze River, Huaishui, and the Yellow River.

In the future, in addition to sea vessels, goods that are not too important or afraid of water can also be loaded by land, and they can also reach Hebei Road within a month, and vice versa.

With this road, it is not only beneficial to economic development, but more importantly, it is to cooperate with the promotion of non-governmental exchange activities organized by the society. The logistics are smooth, including the personnel.

In the past, it was difficult for most Song people to leave their hometowns hundreds of miles away in their lives, and only a small number of merchants and scholars had the possibility of traveling far. The result is that the townships and counties are relatively closed, and no matter how lively the city is, the radiation area is dozens of miles around, and no matter how far away it is, it has no influence.

When people can travel more easily, more conveniently, and at a lower cost, an exchange of ideas ensues. If more peasant households could see the benefits of agricultural cooperatives and the affluent life of their families, would they be indifferent?

It doesn't take much, a few people out of a hundred people are tempted. They are like sparks that are likely to ignite a fire in their homeland. At this time, the promotion society will come forward to guide and assist, and the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort can be achieved, and the spread speed will also increase geometrically.

It can be said that wherever the highway is built, new ways of life, production methods, and ideological concepts will follow, and the files will not be able to stop it.

Hong Tao spent a lot of money and food, and the promotion society spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and worked hard for six or seven years on the road network plan.

The main thing is that it is not easy to attract the attention of the imperial court, and in fact, so far, no official has questioned this matter.

Historical limitations are talking about this phenomenon, no matter how smart the ancients were, even if it was all Zhuge Liang, they could not guess in advance some theories that had been proven countless times by later generations.

Not only did it not be expected, but many officials and gentry would actively participate in it, and they really did good deeds. As everyone knows, the good deeds they do are digging their own foundation in their bones.

The result? It's huge. For example, when it came to Cheung Kong College five years ago, only ordinary people and businessmen who had close contact with the promotion society would consider sending their children to school, and they also understood the benefits. Most Song people still avoided it, always thinking that it was heresy and contrary to the teachings of the saints.

Today, five years later, Yangtze River College has been expanded three times, and four or five teaching buildings and dormitories have been added, and the number of students admitted each year is still less than one-tenth of the applicants.

Wang Er and Zhou Zhou had already issued a statement in the newspaper that the Yangtze River College would open branches in Fuzhou and Chengdu Prefecture, and it would be completed by the end of the year.

At that time, students from all over the world will not have to travel thousands of miles to study on Guazhou Island, and they will choose the branch closest to their homes to enroll, the teachers will be similar, the courses will be similar, and they will also be assigned jobs after graduation.

Another example is the cooperative model, when Wang Er was initially promoted in Fuzhou, he had to rely on the Shanchuan Supervision Institute to secretly manipulate the local government to turn a blind eye, and then use force to persuade those local big households who tried to obstruct it.

Now, when it comes to cooperatives, most of the local government will take the initiative to support them, and if they are not happy, they will send officials to do the work. The reason is very simple, whichever county has more cooperatives, the county will have a higher grain yield.

Whoever is an official does not want to rule himself under the full granary, the increase in taxes, and the prosperity of the people, this thing is also an iron-clad political achievement, and it can also be praised by the people.

Besides, the local area is rich, and the oil and water of the officials are also large. This kind of money that can be obtained without much effort is not earned, and it is necessary to snatch food from the bitter mouth, and there is a problem with IQ.

As for whether the cooperatives will shake the court of the Great Song Dynasty and even the imperial power, or that sentence, historical limitations. People who haven't experienced something will not think of the result if they want to break their heads. Even the emperor himself was kept in the dark, and perhaps he was secretly happy that the treasury was becoming more and more abundant.

Now the imperial court is basically concerned about two things, the new army and the special zone, and even the Yangtze River Academy does not pay special attention to it. In their opinion, this academy, which graduates hundreds of students every year, is nothing more than the descendants of a group of peddlers and pawns, who are begging for money, and they can't understand the scriptures and history of the saints at all.

"Well, one of the key issues discussed at this meeting is to build roads, and when the time comes, you don't have to do everything, you must do what you can and leave room for yourself." Hong Tao is not worried about Wang Qi's ability, but he is afraid that he will overdraw.

Since it is an overall plan, each person in charge must do what he or she can, and affect the whole body. Whoever has a problem in the link will stop the whole moving forward, and the losses caused are often greater than the enemy's destruction.

These words have to be told not only to Wang Qi, but also to every participant. They're all very motivated, and that's a good thing, but you can't let a good thing turn into a bad thing. In good times, young people can easily play and play to make a big leap forward, and then it will be troublesome.
