With the popularity of banknotes in the state capitals along the highway, the matter quickly spread across the country. State governments from all over the country have written letters and want to use such banknotes. For them, banknotes are simply inconvenient.
Who wants to walk around the streets with heavy money all day long?
With the rapid issuance of banknotes, Qin Huaidao also received a desire for banknotes from all over the world. In order to speed up the issuance of banknotes, he even transferred some of the printing workers of Chang'an Daily to Wang Xuance, allowing him to print the banknotes as quickly as possible.
Finish.
With the help of this group of people, the remaining banknotes can be completed in about three months at the earliest.
Here in Daye City, three-story cement houses were built one after another in just a few months. People from Momen soon moved into Nancheng. At the same time, they also started the research and manufacturing of steam tractors. From the drawings
Look, it is not difficult to manufacture a steam tractor, but they still have a long way to go from drawings to finished products. At least they need to understand how the key parts of the machine work together.
, Fortunately, Qin Huaidao would give guidance from time to time, and the Momen people also made rapid progress.
Han Qi's entry into the Ministry of Industry also provided Momen with resources they had never had in Yuezhou before.
It can be said that since the Qin Dynasty, Momen has never fought such a wealthy war.
With Qin Huaidao's guidance and support, Li Xueyan not only rapidly expanded the number of people in the Sky Eye Intelligence Network to all parts of the country in a short period of time, but also used Qin Huaidao's methods to allow him to detect many undercurrents, some of which were used by people in the Sky Eye.
After taking care of them, Qin Huaidao specifically told them not to act rashly for the time being.
In short, the Great Han's Heavenly Eye, which was originally covered, has reopened its door.
Yuezhou.
After Chu Suiliang was transferred to the government, he carried out drastic reforms in the entire Yuezhou. First, he introduced the literary museum system into Yuezhou and actively encouraged scholars to rule the country and bring peace to the world. Later, he imposed laws and regulations to improve people's livelihood and brought bandits from all over the country.
Catch everything in one fell swoop, and encourage people to open up new lands and actively have children. Some policies will not see results in a short period of time, but the appearance of Yuezhou has taken on a completely new look.
There is also a new commander-in-chief of the Eastern Group Army, Fang Yiai, commander of the First Army of the Jiangnan Army, who has vigorously trained the army, and introduced new troops to strengthen training and military discipline. Although the current First Army of the Jiangnan Army cannot make the surrounding states fearful, it has
It also has its own prestige.
With the onset of summer in the south of the Yangtze River, Fang Yiai also gradually slowed down the intensity of military training after achieving certain results. This summer seems to be different from previous years, with more rain and mostly continuous rain. If the soldiers are exposed to too much rain,
It would be bad if it left any hidden wounds.
Taking advantage of the rainy season, Chu Suiliang did a lot of things.
When it rains more, the soil becomes softer. Once the soil is soft, it is very convenient to open up wasteland. When it rains, Chu Suiliang not only calls on the people to wear raincoats and bamboo hats to open up wasteland, but he also takes people to dig a few pieces of land when he has nothing to do.
, to set an example.
Even though he didn't dig a few pieces of land, the people in Jiangnan followed suit. In a short period of time, the entire cultivated land in Jiangnan increased by about 10%. If food is planted, a bumper harvest will be achieved next year.
The rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River brings joy to many people, but it becomes a disaster in other places.
Longyou Road, Lanzhou Prefecture.
At this time, the governor of Lanzhou was a person from Longyou, whose surname was Chen Mingwang. He not only served as the governor of Lanzhou, but also served as the chief river supervisor of the capital. At this time, he looked at the rainy weather for several consecutive days with a sad face.
Since last month, not only has rain continued in the Yellow River area, but the water level has also continued to rise. It seems that the flood season of the Yellow River has not yet arrived, and the water level has already approached the height of previous years' major floods.
If this continues, the Yellow River may be in serious trouble this year that it has not seen in a century.
He has already sent Lanzhou Bijie to Jingzhi to inspect the upper reaches. If the upper reaches are like Lanzhou, he may have to make plans for this matter early.
Looking up at the sky, it is rainy again today.
"When will this damn weather end?" Chen Wang thought more and more uneasy, so he hurried to the Yellow River embankment with a few people to check it out.
Riding on horseback in the rain, the distance is sparsely populated.
After traveling all the way, Chen Wang arrived at the embankment of the Yellow River in the Lanzhou section in just one day. At this time, the river workers were still reinforcing the embankment in the rain.
Numerous river workers carried strips of bluestone to heighten the embankment. They also used soft materials such as firewood, bamboo and wood, and bundled earth and rock paper to cover the embankment to prevent floods from destroying the embankment. Under the embankment, there were also many piles of
A large kettle used for emergencies.
Seeing Mr. Fu Yin arrive, Hetou ordered the others to continue working while he came to see Chen Wang.
"Wang Heng, head of the Lanzhou River Section, pays homage to Mr. Fu Yin."
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Wang held his hand tightly to prevent him from kneeling: "Your Majesty issued an imperial edict in Chang'an. Now everyone in the world is equal. You and I are all public servants of the people. There is no need to kneel down. Wang Heng,
I know that you have been working as a river worker for more than 20 years, and you have been working as a river head for seven years now. You are most familiar with the Yellow River. It has been raining heavily in recent days. I wonder what you think about it?"
He stared at Wang Heng, who was nearly fifty years old. The wrinkles on his forehead were like the winding course of the Yellow River, bottomless.
Wang Heng looked at the rolling yellow sand water under the embankment, and then looked at the large dam pushed up under the river, shook his head and sighed: "The rain in recent days has far exceeded that in the same year, and the flow rate of the Yellow River has also been much faster these days. If it is the flood season, the precipitation will
The amount is still the same, Mr. Fu Yin should have made plans in advance."
The two looked at each other in silence for a while.
What plans do you have? If a flood really occurs, Chen Wang has only two options. One is to blow up the embankments and release water. In this way, not only the entire Lanzhou, but also the six states and 71 counties behind Lanzhou will be affected by the floods. By then, corpses will be everywhere.
How can he face the people and His Majesty when the straw is floating?
One is to raise the dam to support it. Whether it can survive it or not, after these floods pass through Lanzhou, they will inevitably put greater pressure on the Bronze Man, Hekou and Sanmenxia behind. If they accumulate to the rear and then the dam breaks, the consequences will be
Even more unimaginable.
The only hope is that the rainwater should be reduced as much as possible or even disappear completely.
After returning to his residence, Chen Wang immediately wrote a memorial in a hurry and had it sent to Chang'an.
After the memorial was sent, the rain in Lanzhou became even heavier.
Lanzhou Bie Jingzhi went up the Yellow River and found that the rain not only did not slow down, but intensified. With a heavy heart, he checked the water speed along the river. By chance, he met a strange man.
Not only was this man not afraid of water, but he was also able to plunge into the river with such rapidity and ride the current down the river until he stopped at the bank.
Jingzhi was so curious that he quickly walked forward with a few people, hoping to find him and ask him.
