Royal Gold Magistrate

This banquet was eaten until it was getting dark.

During the discussion, the atmosphere continued to be heated, and many people kept asking Fang Zhengyi questions with strong curiosity and alcohol.

Fortunately, he was well prepared and answered all the questions one by one.

It wasn't until the mouth was dry that everyone's curiosity was satisfied.

At the end of the banquet, Emperor Jing was very drunk, with a satisfied smile still on his face: "Zhengyi, you have developed steam engines and supervised the manufacture of steam engines. This is an extraordinary achievement! Jiangshan Sheji, the contribution is indispensable. The Eastern Suburb University and the Royal Academy of Sciences are the main ones, and the Ministry of Industry coordinates the handling, and the rest must not interfere!"

"Eastern Suburb University... wants to expand its enrollment! Enrollment will be greatly expanded, and the Ministry of Finance will allocate money!"

"There are also various directors of the Ministry of Industry who entered Eastern Suburb University to study scientific theory. Since the establishment of Dongda University and the Royal Academy of Sciences, they have made great achievements, and the Ministry of Industry is far behind. This... The design of the steam engine train allows them to study hard. Achievement, I... don't support idlers!"

Although some of Emperor Jing's words were drunk, Fangzheng's mouth was already crooked.

Whether he is drunk or not, golden words are golden words, if you say it in front of so many people, then you have to count.

With this promise, even if you get your wish, it will be a complete success!

All the officials were still pushing cups and changing cups, Emperor Jing staggered up while supporting the table: "It's getting late, if there is anything to discuss tomorrow, it's time to go back, get ready."

Fang Zheng said together: "Your Majesty, the train is already waiting for you at the station, please move to the station, Your Majesty."

The officials all smiled.

Go back by train?Go back by train, we love trains!

......

After this exhibition, the train exploded in the capital as expected.

The people in the capital turned from fear to pursuit of such spectacular and miraculous new things in just two or three days.

The railway has been in continuous operation for three days, and with the collective publicity of the Banshan Daily and six newspapers, there has been a wave of enthusiasm among the people.

After get off work, I was full and went to the railway station to squat on the train.

Railway stations and railway stations are often crowded with people.

Whenever the train passed by a group of people who looked like meerkats, they raised their hands and cheered in unison.

The scene is both weird and a little hilarious.

There are also superstitious people who bow down to the train, and some who are bold enough to deliberately put stones on the rails.

There are even a few greedy people who found the attractive 'dried meat' beside the railway, and were sent to the hospital after eating it by mistake...

There are many strange phenomena caused by short-sightedness.

In order to prevent accidents, Banshan Daily urgently launched several popular science articles about railways.

So far, the atmosphere has been suppressed a little.

Compared with the prosperity of the people, the DPRK and China are becoming more cautious.

.....

In the cabinet, everything was quiet and peaceful, and everyone in the house was holding the Banshan Daily to read today's public sentiment.

After a long time, Li Yansong took off his glasses and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's really scary. The train is still running stably without any problems, which shows that Fang Zhengyi's words are not false."

"It seems that the railway connecting Taoyuan County to Hengjiang Prefecture is imperative."

Zheng Qiao put down the newspaper, hesitantly said: "Is it too urgent... That is an investment of millions of taels, and it only takes a few days?"

Li Yansong shook his head: "Your Majesty is determined to build it, and Taoyuan County has already taken the lead. This railway will be [-]% Hengjiang Prefecture and Gyeonggi Province. By then, the flow of materials will be greatly accelerated, and even military expenditures will be greatly saved."

"Your Majesty's attitude has been made very clear, and there is no objection to this matter...Who doesn't want to see the grand sight of the railway running through the whole country?"

"A change that hasn't happened in a thousand years...Fang Zhengyi really came up with something amazing."

Zheng Qiao felt sorry for her.

After returning from Taoyuan County that day, on the second day after waking up, he recorded everything he saw and heard in his diary.

Every time I look at it, the deeper I go, the more frightened I am. This railway seems to have innumerable benefits.

The only trouble now is that although this thing has many benefits, the initial investment is also frighteningly high.

If it weren't for the extremely rich profits from the fleet going to sea, I am afraid that the court would not have the courage to make up their minds so quickly.

And there is another troublesome thing, how Fang Zhengyi should award the court is still deliberating.

He was promoted too fast, and almost every one of the achievements he made before can be highlighted. The power in his hands is no match for the grace of the Holy Grace, and now there is a train that shocks the world... .It is really difficult.

But at this time, Zhang Dongxiang suddenly said: "The train is so popular, wouldn't the land price along the railway go up?"

Li Yansong and Zheng Qiao looked sideways at the same time, looking at him curiously: "You just thought of it?"

What, they've already made a move! ?

Zhang Dongxiang's face froze, and a bad feeling rose in his heart: "What do you mean?"

"It has risen a long time ago, and it rose the next day. Even the wasteland along the railway line has doubled."

Zhang Dongxiang was stunned, and slapped his thigh suddenly: "Why didn't you say it earlier? You said earlier that the old man also bought some land. How much did you buy?"

The expressions of Li Yansong and Li Yansong gradually became inexplicable again: "If we can't buy it, we have already asked about it. The people in the dental shop said that when the railway was built, there were mysterious people who bought all the land along the railway at a low price."

"Don't even think about it, it must be Fang Zhengyi, this kid has already plotted! Cunning!"

Zhang Dongxiang gritted his teeth: "He should be damned! He had a plan and kept it hidden. He kept calling me the third uncle, but luckily I bought him a lot of milk tablets!"

"Do you have any more milk tablets? Give the old man two, they are really delicious."

"Give you."

Li Yansong chewed the milk tablet, and said, "The land is indeed in Fangzheng's hands, and there is no news of it being sold for the time being. However, houses outside Taoyuan County are being sold recently, and it is said that the price is very high."

"Forget it, the old man sent someone to investigate. The location is outside Taoyuan County, and the house is pitifully small, only about one-tenth of an acre. Who would buy such a house?" Zheng Qiao shook his head with a smile, "There are also big houses. Son, it’s just not cheap.”

Zhang Dongxiang's eyes lit up: "Why are you afraid of a small house? As long as its price rises, you can buy it and sell it again. What's the difference with buying land? You have high vision, and you are used to living in big houses and don't look down on small houses?"

Li Yansong and Zheng Qiao's eyes lit up at the same time, and then calmed down again.

Zheng Qiao picked up the newspaper again, read the news carefully, and said indifferently: "I am not interested in it. The land price in Taoyuan County has always been horribly high. Those who can go there are rich people. Who would look down on a small house?" It’s rising, but it’s just speculation.”

Li Yansong put on his glasses again, and chuckled: "That's right, whoever would buy a small house outside the city, don't hesitate to give Fang Zhengyi some money."
