"This is an order from His Highness the Crown Prince. It is rare for our Ministry of Industry to be valued by His Highness the Crown Prince. Therefore, this mission must be completed successfully!"
Gao Tianyun said coldly.
"this……"
All the officials present were silent. At this time, Lin Fan walked in with steps.
Seeing that the officials present were all grimacing, they asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Seeing Lin Fan, Gao Tianyun stood up hurriedly, and the officials also stood up and knelt down, saying: "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Lin Fan waved his hand and told them to get up, and then said: "Did you encounter any difficulties because of what I asked you to do?
If you have any difficulties, just speak up, I am not a person who cannot be reasonable."
this……
The officials wanted to tell them about the existing difficulties, but were frightened by Gao Tianyun's look.
Gao Tianyun said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I have no difficulty and I will definitely spare no effort to complete it."
Lin Fan rolled his eyes at Gao Tianyun. Just by looking at your faces, I can confirm that you are definitely in trouble.
"Gao Tianyun, did you turn a deaf ear to what I said?
If you encounter any difficulties, just tell me honestly and I will find a way to help you."
Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
this……
Gao Tianyun hesitated again and again, and said in a deep voice: "Currently, the first martial arts academy of the Ming Dynasty that His Highness the Prince asked us to build has encountered some difficulties!"
"The martial arts academy is built on a large mountain. However, the mountain is rugged and there is very little smooth ground. Therefore, the houses are mainly small houses!"
"However, I have made a decision. Even if I have a chisel, I will create a flat land. At the same time, I will also carve out a training ground large enough for 20,000 people to practice at the same time!"
Forehead……
Hearing what Gao Tianyun said, Lin Fan was speechless. You are really a fool!
"Gao Tianyun, what do you want me to say about you?
There are huge rocks on the high mountains. Since it is difficult to cut them, why can't you use gunpowder to blow them up?"
Lin Fan asked rhetorically.
kindness?
Hearing what Lin Fan said, Gao Tianyun was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly realized. Then, his eyes showed a look of shock. His Highness the Crown Prince's mind is amazing!
"Your Highness, how did you come up with this method of blasting mountains with gunpowder?"
Gao Tianyun asked.
This gunpowder has always been used in artillery and muskets, and it is strictly controlled by the Ministry of War, and people from the Ministry of Industry have no right to mobilize it.
Even the Gunpowder Factory, which was originally under the Ministry of Industry, is now controlled by the Ministry of War. Because there is no such precedent, Gao Tianyun has never thought about it.
Lin Fan said solemnly: "Because I am the prince, this gunpowder is very powerful. You just need to dig a big hole in a suitable place, then fill it with gunpowder, ignite the gunpowder, and the mountain will explode!"
"As long as you blast out enough open space and you find a way to level it, won't the amount of work be reduced by more than half?"
"Not only has it been reduced by more than half! Your Highness, as long as we use explosives to blast it, the amount of this project will be reduced by ten times!"
Gao Tianyun said excitedly.
The officials present also nodded, feeling that the method of using explosives was extremely good.
“Now that we can use explosives to blast out flat ground, do we need to upgrade our houses next?
Is it okay to build a large palace that is tens of meters high?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Well... Your Highness, this is a bit difficult! It's a high mountain there, and there are strong winds. If you build a house too high, it may not be safe!"
an official said.
"Your Highness, we have also calculated that even if it is built with cement and bricks, the strength is still not enough. It can only be built with two floors at most."
Another official said.
Gao Tianyun said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, don't worry, as long as it is what you want, our Ministry of Industry will do our best to do it!"
Lin Fan waved his hand and said: "Gao Tianyun, I don't want you to do this without thinking. What I want is your wisdom!"
"If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me and I can give you some advice!"
"This is not just your method of building a house. Can you build a foundation on a high mountain?
Next, put steel bars in it and pour cement!"
"In this way, this house will not only have cement, but also the toughness of steel bars, and the wind limit it can withstand will be much enhanced!"
"Furthermore, now that we have steel bars, can we consider building the house wider?
Because, we don’t need to use wood to measure it!”
"The width of the house can even be equal to the height of the house. In this way, no matter how strong the wind blows, it will not be able to blow the house!"
hiss!
After Lin Fan said this, all the officials present took a breath of air. Is His Highness the Prince's brain a god's brain?
How could you come up with such an idea!
"Your Highness, your suggestions are simply too powerful!"
One person said.
"Your Highness, if steel bars are added to increase the horizontal width of the house, then it can definitely be built as high as tens of meters!"
Gao Tianyun said excitedly.
"So, are there any other questions?
For example, things about the second college.”
Lin Fan asked again.
This second college was prepared for Xing Fengchu, a talented person in mathematics, and Lin Fan wanted to build an engineering college for him.
At that time, these officials from the Ministry of Engineering will enter it to teach. Gao Tianyun learned the lessons from the previous two times and said honestly this time: "Your Highness, the location of this engineering college has not been selected yet. Therefore, this
The college has not yet developed a design.”
"This matter cannot be delayed. You should try to make a decision as soon as possible. Is there anything else?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Your Royal Highness, we have encountered some troubles in your South-to-North Water Diversion Project. For example, here, there are mountains and rivers blocking it. If it is bypassed, the amount of the project will increase a lot!"
"Moreover, rivers with too many twists and turns can easily cause blockages."
Gao Tianyun said in a deep voice.
"Didn't I just tell you the solution?
The mountain is full of rocks, so it is indeed difficult to dig out, but the river channel does not need to be too delicate, just blow it up!"
Lin Fan said.
kindness!
Gao Tianyun slapped his brain, he was so smart that he was fooled by his cleverness. His Highness the Prince even said that he could use explosives to blow up rivers, but he never thought that rivers could be blown up.
"Your Highness, I am stupid!"
Gao Tianyun said in a deep voice.
"Are there any other difficulties?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Reporting to His Majesty the Crown Prince, we have no difficulties now!"
Gao Tianyun said.
"Okay, I'm going to build a medical school in Wudaokou. You can design the drawings as soon as possible and show them to me. Once approved, construction will begin immediately!"
