Chapter 213 The Great Project Starts

After half an hour.

Yuan Tan soaked alone in the crystal-clear special large bathing pool, with only one head exposed, "It's too unfeminine, fairy tales are all deceptive..."

He rested his elbows on the edge of the pool, looking very lonely.

Creak, suddenly the door opened, and Da Qiao slipped in.

"Daughter-in-law! I knew you were the best for me!" Yuan Tan was very excited when he saw Da Qiao.

1 minute later.

"No! Someone is coming!"

Da Qiao hurriedly hid behind Yuan Tan.

And Yuan Tan looked at Xiao Qiao who came in, and said pleasantly: "Daughter-in-law~, I know you are the best for me!"

Whoops~.

With a scream, Yuan Tan grabbed a slippery little hand on his lower back.

Another 1 minutes later.

"No, someone is here again!" Yuan Tan shouted.

Why add another?Xiao Qiao hurriedly hid behind Yuan Tan, and when she saw Da Qiao, she immediately understood everything, stretched out her hand and pinched her, "You lied, we agreed that no one can come!"

Ding!Congratulations to the host for successfully pretending to be coercive, and the pretense value will be increased by 5.

Big Qiao just stuck out his tongue and knocked off Little Qiao's hand, "Didn't you come too. Who is it this time?"

So I looked from both sides of Yuan Tan's back, and it was Cai Yan!

"Daughter-in-law~, I knew that only you would come!" Yuan Tan slapped the surface of the water to stir up the mist and said boldly.

Immediately, his mouth turned crooked, and he felt a forceful twist from behind.

a while.

Squeak, the door opened again.

Cai Yan quickly hid behind Yuan Tan, and saw Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.

"..." Cai Yan.

"..." Big Joe and Little Joe.

Ding!Congratulations to the host for successfully pretending to be coercive, and the pretense value will be increased by 6.

Yuan Tan was overjoyed, he could pretend to be coercive. Fortunately, there was a layer of mist on the upper layer of the pool, so he was able to hide and pretend to be coercive.

I saw Zhang Chunhua come in.

"Daughter-in-law~, I knew you were the only one who would come!" Yuan Tan spread his arms, and suddenly there was a sharp pain in his back.

After a while.

Squeak, the door opened again.

Zhang Chunhua quickly hid behind Yuan Tan.

Feeling the forceful twisting in four directions, Yuan Tan suddenly felt that pretending to be real would be fatal. All of this made up a mahjong table.

Ding!Congratulations to the host for successfully pretending to be coercive, and the pretense value will be increased by 7.

I saw Fu Shou coming.

"Daughter-in-law~, I knew that you are the one who loves me the most!" Yuan Tan also went all out, and he did whatever he could to pretend to be shameless.

a while.

The eldest daughter-in-law Zhen Mi came in.

"Daughter-in-law~, you are true love!"

Suddenly Yuan Tan sank in pain.

"We thought our husband had finished washing, but we didn't expect to be caught by him, so we had to accompany him."

The daughter-in-law fans complained to each other.

Yuan Tan felt that he was too happy. He thought he was abandoned, but there was an inside story. The more such inside stories, the better.

"I'm so happy!" Yuan Tan floated on the big bath.

At this time, the maid Xiaoxue brought someone to add water, and she was really shocked to see that all the mistresses had arrived in such a short period of time.

"My lord, why are there so many red spots on your body?" Xiaoxue was very concerned about Yuan Tan's health.

Yuan Tan smiled lightly: "This is the cupping pot that your mistresses pulled out for me for my health."

The maids were all moved when they heard this, and they felt that the mistresses really cared about the lord. You can see that there is no good place to pull up, and I have never seen so many pull ups.Seeing the lord's smile that is uglier than crying, I feel that the lord is really happy.

Ding!Congratulations to the host for successfully pretending to be coercive, and the pretense value will be increased by 10.

Ding!Congratulations to the host for acting aggressively and triggering the lottery draw. Is there a lottery draw?

Yuan Tan thought that I was already like this, and if I didn’t draw a lottery, this wave would be a blood loss, “Draw it now!”

Ding!Congratulations to the host for obtaining the "Art of Craftsmanship" once, which increases the construction progress of a project by 10 times, that is, a 10-year project can be completed in one year.

"Wow~, daughters-in-law, you are so great!"

Yuan Tan paddled the water.

The daughters-in-law felt that they should be angry, why did they start accommodating him after hearing this sentence!It's so annoying!
…………

The next day, Yuan Tan called a meeting of civil servants.

What!Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal Project.

Xun You and the others were immediately shocked by this project, which was ten times more powerful than Zheng Guoqu.

Ma Jun's eyes brightened suddenly, and it seemed that he was not in vain as an official of the Ministry of Industry, and this was a project with a long history.

"I agree!" Ma Jun immediately raised his fist.

"I object!"

Immediately, everyone else raised their hands in opposition.

Ma Jun was stunned, "Why do you object to such a good project?"

"Why do you agree with a project that has consumed our side for more than ten years?" Tian Feng looked over angrily and said.

Xun You and the others expressed their support one after another. If this project is started, will they still rule the world?On the contrary, it will drag us down, and others will annex us.

They all looked at Yuan Tan, my lord, although you have the best economy in the world, you can't be so wasteful, right?

Yuan Tan had already predicted that some people would object, but he didn't expect all of them to object, so he laughed and said, "Everyone, don't rush to object, just listen to the truth and say a few words."

"The northern land is not as fertile as the black land, mostly because of the dry land, not the irrigated land."

"The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal project can realize the irrigated land in Beidi."

"The Grand Canal can also provide water transportation, shorten the distance between various parts of the world, and strengthen the economic and military ties of various places."

"These are in our favor."

"Besides, this is a nationwide project. We can start the construction of the northern section first, called the Northern Canal."

"After the Grand Canal is completed, we can completely suppress the Central Plains!"

The military advisers were shocked. The ambition of the protagonist is really big, so big that we can't even imagine it.

"But my lord, this will cost us a lot of money and food. It will also be a burden to the people, and it will delay our grand strategy of unifying the Central Plains. It will even drag us down!"

Xun You has become the chief military adviser, so he has no choice but to come out and persuade Yuan Tan to turn around.

"Zheng Guoqu did not bring down the former Qin State." Yuan Tan reminded, and added: "Unifying the Central Plains is a long process, and it cannot be completed in a short time."

"And as long as the Grand Canal is built, our productivity will be unmatched by anyone. This is not a burden, but sharpening the knife and chopping firewood."

"But my lord, Qianliang..."

Yuan Tan interrupted Xun You, "Think about it, thousands of miles of land will become irrigated land, and the yield per mu will increase by at least [-]%. How much wealth will it increase every year?"

So Yuan Tan, like Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, tried his best to push forward the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal project.And the northern canal started immediately.

However, Yuan Tan was not as aggressive as Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. He knew that this project was difficult, and it was enough to wear him down.

But don't forget that he has the skill of a master craftsman, which can shorten the construction period tenfold.In other words, you only need to pay one-tenth of the money, food and labor. If you don't dare to do this, you will be a fart in the future?
Moreover, the technique of a master craftsman is aimed at a project, so of course Yuan Tan wants to carry out a big project.This is the same as choosing the same car. You must choose a car, not a bicycle.

So the North Canal project of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal started.

The North Canal takes Yecheng as the center and flows through Youzhou, Jizhou and Qingzhou.

It will provide rich water sources for North China and East China Plain, which are suitable for planting, and open up high-speed passages for businessmen from the north and the south.

half a month later.

It is in Linshui County, [-] miles north of Yecheng, the capital of the country. This is the Zhanghe River Basin, and it is an important excavation site for the Northern Canal.

Xun You and others came here to inspect the construction of the project.

I found that the folk husbands are too bitter.

Tens of thousands of civilian husbands gathered here, and the sound of chant was heard everywhere.

However, it is easy to dig a foot, but difficult to dig a foot, and it is even more difficult to dig a width of [-] meters.

Blood soaked the palms of many people, and they beat the hard part of the ground with all their strength.

Without a hook, without any mechanical power, it would be difficult to rely solely on manpower.

"This project is too difficult." Xun You said
"I'm afraid it will take ten years to dig." Ju Shou said
"Ten years, how many decades are there in one's life? All the money and food have been invested here." Tian Feng was very indignant.

Moreover, this will not only consume money and food, but also consume the hearts of hundreds of thousands of people.If it takes ten years to excavate, at least 300 million civilians must be mobilized, and the torture of people's hearts will not be as simple as one year.

"My lord is a benevolent person. Let him see the difficulties of the people. If he thinks about it, he will suspend this project?"

Xun You and the others had to make a decision, that is, to let Yuan Tan come here to see the real difficulty of this project, which is not as simple as saying a word.

At night, after Xun You and the others returned to Yedu overnight, they harassed Yuan Tan from the bed.

"My lord, you must go and see!"

Yuan Tan originally planned to go to the construction site tomorrow to use the skill of a master craftsman, and let his confidants see that his arrogant master is absolutely amazing. At this moment, he looked at his iron-framed ministers with angry eyes, and said seriously: "Okay, let's set off overnight!"

The military advisers immediately looked over with admiration. If the lord attaches so much importance to our speech, the project must have been successfully stopped.

They clapped hands and celebrated each other, and they were more motivated to correct Yuan Tan's mistakes in time in the future.

 I was so busy at the end of the year that I even had to arrange the venue for the party.

  New Year's Day explosion! ! !

  Although today is the second shift, the number of words is the same as the third shift.I wish you all a happy New Year's Day in advance, and always smile.
