Chapter 681 Build Guzang City first, then repair Yumen Pass! Ask for a monthly ticket)
Hearing this, Ying Gao didn't say much, but came to the map. The pole in his hand fell on where Gu Zang was. He turned towards Lu Hui and said, "Jiang Lu, I originally planned to build a big city here, with
The capitals of the Six Kingdoms are comparable, second only to the large city of Xianyang."
"This general calls it Guzang City. It will be the administrative seat of Liangzhou and the center of Qin's rule over Liangzhou. I wonder if Carpenter Lu is confident?"
Hearing this, a blush appeared on Lu Hui's old-fashioned face. It was obvious that he was excited. As a craftsman, who doesn't want to leave a masterpiece that will be handed down for generations? Lu Hui also wanted to do so.
It's just that he didn't have the chance before.
Now that Ying Gao had personally given him the opportunity, Lu Hui was naturally very excited.
"Thank you very much for your attention, Mr. Wu An, I will hand over Guzang City to you!"
Lu Hui raised her hand towards Ying Gao and said with a hint of impassionedness in her tone: "I wonder, what else does Lord Wu An want from this Guzang City?"
"One month!"
Ying Gao put down the pole, stretched out a finger towards Lu Hui, and said: "There are still a large number of slaves in the northwest. I could have decided to keep them all for you, but Guzang City must be closed within a month."
It will be completed within 10 days, this is my only request!"
"A month?"
Lu Hui hesitated for a moment, then shook her head towards Ying Gao and said: "Even with a large number of slaves, it is impossible to complete the construction in one month. This construction period is too fast!"
At this moment, Ying Gao's attitude was extremely firm, and he did not give in at all: "If the construction period is too tight, then we will start working day and night. I have only one request, and that is to complete it within a month!"
Hearing Ying Gao's decisive answer, Lu Hui knew that Ying Gao could not give in. She hesitated for a moment and said to Ying Gao: "With such a tight construction period, can General Ying tell me why he is like this?"
"Can!"
Looking directly at Lu Hui, Ying Gao said word by word: "Because in a month, I will sacrifice to heaven and earth here, summon the kings of the countries around Liangzhou, and review the officers and soldiers of the three armies of Qin."
"So, no matter what the cost, this big city needs to be completed within a month!"
After listening to Ying Gao's words, Lu Hui was silent for a long time and said: "General Ying, I need to give you an answer on this matter in three days. It requires surveying, mapping and calculations."
"Um!"
Ying Gao nodded, knowing that what Lu Hui said was correct. This is the style of a great craftsman. He would never talk nonsense without going through surveying, mapping and calculation.
Although Lu Hui knew that Guzang City alone was a huge project, he always felt that Ying Gao had other plans. After all, the entire northwest was still deserted.
"General Ying, is there anything else besides this?"
"have!"
The Zhangpole landed on the map, Ying Gao said solemnly: "Jiang Lu, this is the dividing line between the Great Qin and the Great Yueshi in the future, at least within ten years."
"Here, the general planned to build two gates to completely seal off the northwest. This is the gateway for my northwest expedition and the throat to prevent the northwest from being attacked."
"The one to the north was originally going to be called Yumen Pass, and the one to the south was going to be called Yang Pass, but due to specific needs, Carpenter Lu personally led people to investigate!"
"The information I will give you can only be used as a reference!"
"Yumen Pass and Yang Pass are both located in this area, which is an extremely important place for garrisoning troops. In the future, transportation between Daqin and the Western Regions will all pass through these two passes. Only on-site inspections can draw conclusions!"
Having said this, Ying Gao was silent for a moment, then turned to Lu Hui and said: "I can accompany Lu Jiang for this matter. The most important thing now is to build Guzang City. By then, Jiannan Chamber of Commerce and the
The Peacock Chamber of Commerce will also provide full assistance."
Lu Hui also knew the importance of this matter to Great Qin, and could not help but bow to Ying Gao solemnly and said: "Please rest assured, Lord Wu An, I will do my best to help Lord Wu An succeed in this matter!"
Hearing this, Ying Gao raised his hands to Lu Hui and other craftsmen and said: "I will take the place of Da Qin and thank you all. Please leave this matter to me!"
Lu Hui quickly helped Ying Gao up, with a solemn expression, and said word by word: "You don't have to be like this, Mr. Wu An, it's all for the Qin Dynasty. I am also a Qin man, so I should be loyal to the king and die for the Qin Dynasty!"
"Um!"
Nodding, Ying Gao raised the Qin sword in his hand and said impassionedly: "For Great Qin——!"
"For Great Qin——!"
...........
"General Ying, King Dayuezhi has begun to retreat, but in terms of the total retreat time, it will take about half a month!" At this point, Tie Ying changed the subject and said: "At the same time, Ning Sheng and Qin Hui
I have completed the handover with King Dayuezhi, I have also completed the handover with Loulan, and I am returning east now!"
"Um!"
Ying Gao nodded slightly, heaving a sigh of relief in his heart, and told Tie Ying, "Inform Ye Zhong and ask him to keep an eye on him. I am worried about King Dayuezhi."
"Don't let anything happen along the way!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Tie Ying turned around and was about to go out when Ying Gao's voice came again: "At the same time, order Jing Yu to come to the shogunate!"
"promise."
.........
"My subordinate Jing Yu has met General Ying!" After a moment, Jing Yu walked into the shogunate.
"Here he comes!" Ying Gao waved his hand and motioned for Jing Yu to take a seat: "Sit down first, I need to discuss something with you!"
"promise."
After Jing Yu sat down, he waited quietly for Ying Gao to speak. He knew in his heart that Ying Gao was looking for him this time, most likely because of something other than a merchant.
After Ying Gao finished his work, he turned to Jing Yu and said: "There are some things here that need to be handed over to the Chamber of Commerce. Remember, these things are very important. Even if you spend a high price, you still have to get the seeds!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Jing Yu's eyes flashed. He knew that since it was a seed, it must be a crop, not a businessman's business. Food is the most important thing for the people. At this moment, Jing Yu's expression suddenly became more formal.
"I have received news that in this Western Region and other places in the far west, there are some flowers, fruits and vegetables that can be used, but I do not have them in Daqin. I will make statistics and give them to you. When the time comes, the Chamber of Commerce will go and let them pay attention.
one time!"
"My subordinates know it!" Jing Yu knew that since Ying Gao personally gave the order, it must be an extremely important matter, so he recorded the matter in his heart.
"One more thing, there are huge iron ore veins and other mineral veins in Liangzhou, but the Peacock Chamber of Commerce cannot get involved with these things. It plans to establish two new chambers of commerce, namely the Liangzhou Salt Chamber of Commerce and the Liangzhou Mining Chamber of Commerce.
"
"On the basis of the whole, a chamber of commerce will be established, which will be called Daqin Capital. Daqin Capital has four major commercial banks: Liangzhou Salt Industry, Liangzhou Mining, Liangzhou Coal Industry, Liangzhou Animal Husbandry, and Jiannan
Chamber of Commerce, Peacock Chamber of Commerce, etc.”
"However, these four words Daqin Capital should be as low-key as possible!"
