Chapter 1234 Eat people without spitting out bones
Han Qi was even more shocked when he heard these words!
"Is there anything more magical?"
He couldn't believe that there was something more magical than this.
Qin Huaidao laughed and nodded, "It's natural. I'm just telling you now. I'm afraid you won't be able to absorb it. Let's make the steam engine first. Then I will teach you."
The first product of the Industrial Revolution in Western countries was the steam age. Only with the beginning of this era can we enter the second era.
This will take time to overcome, and we can only move forward when the steam engine comes out.
It is useless to say it now.
"Okay, Your Majesty! I will make it as soon as possible!"
Han Qi was extremely excited. He learned a lot from His Majesty today. To be honest, he felt that what he had learned over the years was far behind in front of His Majesty.
Qin Huaidao felt relieved and left the Science and Technology Museum, letting them continue their work.
All you have to do is wait.
He believed that within half a year, Han Qi would be able to completely build a steam engine.
The world of the Han Dynasty has been completely settled, and the various states and territories are also proceeding in an orderly manner.
However, this trade is still too slow. Qin Huaidao established the east-west, north-south vertical and horizontal expressways, and established trade routes and trade on a credit-for-work basis to further promote the economic system.
And this road is naturally the best cement road!
"Your Majesty, if these highways are really built, then... it will be of great benefit to our Han Dynasty business!"
In the imperial study, Qin Huaidao distributed the plan in surprise. Fang Xuanling and others were so shocked that they couldn't believe their eyes.
However, it has been extremely difficult to build roads since ancient times, and many places are home to grass bandits. Although grass bandits have become restrained in the Han Dynasty, there are still many such guys after all.
They are surrounded by mountains and rivers and occupy dangerous areas, which is really difficult to manage.
You can’t really send a large army to encircle and suppress it, right?
Even so, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it may be difficult to eradicate.
"Your Majesty, it would be easier if this project were connected to all major states and counties, but in the barren mountains and wild ridges...I'm afraid..."
Fang Xuanling didn't finish speaking, but his meaning was very obvious.
Qin Huaidao smiled, naturally understanding.
"If there are difficulties, they must be solved easily. Don't worry, I will personally supervise the construction of this matter!"
Since Qin Huaidao wants to do something, he must set an example!
"First take Chang'an as the center point. I will be responsible for the south side, Li Chunfeng will be responsible for the north side, Wei Shuyu will be responsible for the east side, and Xue Rengui will be responsible for the west side. Within a year, I will see these two roads completely opened!"
"If you can't do it, you will be dealt with by military law, do you understand?"
Qin Huaidao directly issued a death order, which was nothing more than building roads. This kind of thing is much simpler than fighting.
"Here!"
Li Chunfeng and others naturally did not dare to have any objections!
Now that he had made up his mind, Qin Huaidao naturally started to do it. The next day, he took Luo Wu directly towards Lingnan Road in the south.
However, Qin Huaidao did not bring many soldiers, just a thousand.
"Your Majesty, we are building roads, but... are there too few people with us?"
Luo Wu was very confused. Can such a small number of people build a road? It is still such a long way.
"I have said that using work in exchange for credit is not only for building roads, but also to solve the problem of hunger and hunger for this group of poor people. If we only rely on the court's disaster relief grain, we will not be able to provide porridge to the world, but using work as a substitute
Credit can better solve the problems we face."
"After all, road construction also requires manpower, and if they want to eat, it is best to do so."
Qin Huaidao smiled, the south of Chang'an is still rich, and the first one to bear the brunt is Lingnan Road. Although this area is rich, the traffic is still a problem.
Looking at the map, Qin Huaidao came directly to Lingnan Road.
Lingnan Road has high mountains and rivers, which are outstanding. However, they are only inhabited places. There are still many poor mountain villages in Lingnan.
"Hey... In this world, it will never be possible for everyone to become rich. After all... there are too many poor places, and it is impossible for one or several generations to become rich."
Qin Huaidao saw a villa in front of him, sighed in his heart, and flashed a look of loneliness.
"Where is this place?" Qin Huaidao asked.
"This place... is called Straw Hat Village. There are only a hundred or so families in the village. They are really poor. Moreover, they are surrounded by grass bandits. Their lives are not easy."
Luo Wu did his homework, took out the illustrated book, read it and responded.
"The army is setting up camp outside. When you enter here, don't call me your majesty. Just call me Mr. Qin. I'm afraid they will have to kowtow and thank you when they see me. I don't have the face to let them kneel down now." p>
Qin Huaidao sighed. If he couldn't make them rich, Qin Huaidao wouldn't let them admit him.
This is a rule he set for himself.
Making an already rich place rich is not a big deal, but making this remote place rich is a big deal!
"Here!"
Luo Wu nodded immediately, and then the two walked into the village one after another.
What just puzzled Qin Huaidao was why all the people in this village were missing? After walking all the way, he didn't see many people at all.
"Are the people in this village completely gone?"
Qin Huaidao spoke curiously, and Luo Wu also looked confused after hearing this.
At this moment, I saw a half-grown young man walking out of the world in front of me, carrying a burnt potato in his hand, gnawing it as he walked, making a mouth full of black.
"Boy, come here."
When Luo Wu saw the young man, he immediately said hello.
The young man was also stunned, looked at Qin Huaidao and Luo Wu, and couldn't help but said: "Are you from outside?"
Qin Huaidao smiled and nodded, "Yes, we are recruiting long-term workers from outside. In your village... are all the people gone? Why are there no people there?"
Hearing this, the young man quickly shook his head and said: "No, it's not that there is no one in our village, but because the village chief married his wife today, so... everyone went to celebrate him."
Qin Huaidao was stunned and then laughed.
Little wife? This village chief really knows how to enjoy it.
"Can you take me there? I also want to ask for a drink and something to eat."
It just so happens that everyone is here, so it will be much more convenient for Qin Huaidao to recruit a permanent worker.
"I advise you, don't go there. You are from outside. You are dressed in extraordinary clothes. You can tell that you are rich. But our village is a village that eats people without spitting out their bones. Even a rich person like you will probably
You have to be stripped of your skin before you can leave!"
The young man shook his head immediately, and what he said shocked Qin Huaidao!
A village that eats people without spitting out their bones?
This is really shocking. Under the founding of the Han Dynasty, could there still be such a village?
Qin Huaidao's face looked a little ugly, and he quickly asked: "Young man, tell me, who are these people who eat people without spitting out their bones?"
