Changsun Wuji was a little dumbfounded and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I don't have a good impression of Goguryeo after hearing his tone."
"It's better to wait until he comes back and ask more carefully!"
"Eh."
Du Ruhui sighed and said, "He is going to Jiannan Road this time. I am a little worried that something will go wrong."
"It'll be okay."
His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and said: "I have ordered Youjin Wuwei to deploy three thousand soldiers and horses to escort them secretly."
"Li Junxian's hundred elite knights are also secretly protecting him. That bastard boy is probably safer than me now!"
…
Time flies by, and it has been more than half a month since Su Chen set out for Jiannan Road.
Although, the uneven road surface still tormented Su Chen to death.
But with his sisters, Princess Changle and Xiao Sizi, accompanying him, he still lived quite comfortably in his little life.
Moreover, under her arrangement, the construction of earth and cement roads along the way began.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Judging from the current speed, Su Chen will be able to ride on a flat and neat cement road in less than half a year.
The Su Road built by Su Chen has also become the most talked about headlines in various states and counties along the way.
Although no one knew that Su Chen was building the road, people were full of respect for him.
Because he built roads on such a large scale, not only did he not call for corvees, he also gave money to the people!
Such behavior was well received by everyone.
Qingchuan County.
This is the last supply area for Su Chen to reach Jiannan Road, located at the junction of Jiannan Road and Guanzhong.
Now, there are still more than ten miles left, and Su Chen does not intend to continue riding the carriage into the city.
After asking someone to stop the carriage, Su Chen came to Li Chengqian's carriage at the rear and said, "Xiao Li, come down and take a walk. Staying in the carriage will make you suffocated."
After this period of contact, Su Chen discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with Lao Li's son.
He doesn't talk much all day long. He just likes to sit in his carriage and don't know where he is.
Su Chen wondered if Lao Li's son had autism, right?
"Okay, sir."
Inside the carriage, Li Chengqian simply responded and then got out of the carriage.
"Xiao Li, when you left, your father Lao Li specifically asked me to teach you something."
"But you stay in the carriage every day, and there's nothing I can teach you."
Su Chen was very distressed. He was entrusted by others, and if he couldn't handle it well, he wouldn't be able to explain it to Lao Li when he went back.
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was speechless for a while.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to get off the carriage, it’s that he doesn’t even have a chance!
His two sisters stayed in Su Chen's carriage almost the whole day, so how could he ask questions?!
However, he couldn't say these words, so he could only sigh silently, and then followed Su Chen towards the city.
Although Qingchuan County is not too large, it is adjacent to the Guanzhong area and has thousands of households living there.
After being out for so long, this is the first time Su Chen has seen such a person.
For a while, Su Chen started walking around the street with everyone, and was not in a hurry to find an inn to rest.
Looking at the market with people coming and going, Su Chen sighed in his heart, people are indeed creatures that like to live in groups.
While strolling on the street, Su Chen suddenly noticed many people gathering outside a quaint courtyard.
The scene seemed very lively, and Su Chen couldn't help but become curious, so he led everyone over.
"Old man, what are you doing?" Su Chen grabbed an old man and asked.
"We are going to offer incense to the noble man!"
The old man looked at Su Chen for a few times and asked, "Aren't you from Qingchuan?"
"Um."
Su Chen nodded and said, "I came from Guanzhong, who are you talking about?"
"You should know about the Su Road that has been under construction in many counties recently, right?"
The old man said: "I am talking about this noble man who built the road!"
Hearing this, Su Chen was immediately shocked!
I'm not dead yet, why are you offering incense to me?!
Seeing Su Chen's doubts, Princess Changle gently pulled his sleeve and whispered softly: "Brother Su Chen, I think they are talking about the Monument of Immortality!"
"Yes, our village has already built an immortal monument for the noble man."
The old man said excitedly: "You must know the sufferings of us common people, so you came to give us money specifically in the name of building roads!"
"A month's salary is a full six hundred cash!"
"Moreover, you can have one day off every seven days, and you only have to work for five hours a day!"
"Tell me, where can I find such a good nobleman?"
"Stop talking, I'm going to offer incense to your noble lord, otherwise I don't know when I'll be here."
After saying that, the old man rushed into the crowd.
Everyone wanted to give Su Chen, this noble man, a nice fragrance.
"this……"
Seeing the enthusiasm of the people in front of him, Su Chen felt inexplicably embarrassed.
Originally, I was too bored, so I came up with such a nine-nine-six work system.
But I didn't expect that these simple people would be so grateful to me.
Although this road was planned and built by himself, the main investor is still His Majesty Li Er.
Moreover, after listening to the old man's words just now, Su Chen actually felt quite uncomfortable.
A salary of 600 copper can actually make these people feel so grateful to themselves.
You know, if you only have six hundred cents a month, then the tenants on your farm will definitely not even bother to look at it.
However, in the eyes of these common people, these 600 coins are the money that the family needs to survive!
Along the way during this trip, Su Chen also saw many sad scenes.
It seems that it still takes a while for me to get rid of poverty in Datang!
"Brother Su Chen, let's go in and have a look too." Princess Changle said curiously.
"Well, it just so happens that I also want to see what this Immortal Monument is like!"
With that said, everyone squeezed in with difficulty from the crowd.
Originally, Su Chen came in with excitement, but in the end he was instantly confused.
It’s not that there’s anything wrong with the Immortal Monument, it’s just a normal inscription.
It's just that... the portrait of the person being worshiped is actually a circle!
Su Chen hurriedly pulled a commoner who was offering incense and asked: "Why is this noble man's portrait in a circle?"
"What circle? That's called Hongsu!"
The man corrected him seriously: "It is said that this red sage was also popularized by the noble master. One acre can produce fifty hours of food!"
"Not only did the noble Lord pay us for building roads, but he also gave us such a kind of food that can fill our stomachs. Don't you think this is touching?!"
"It's a pity that none of us know what the noble gentleman looks like, so we can only use red persimmon instead."
