The husband is the future chief [infrastructure]

After arriving in the capital, Lin Zhao rested at home for two days. Before the emperor ordered him to come back, he did not specify what official position he would be transferred to.

Unexpectedly, two days later, Lin Zhao received a formal transfer document, and the emperor transferred him to the post of minister of the Ministry of Industry.Li Que had always been in the position of Secretary of the Ministry of Industry before. After he was dismissed and investigated, this position was promoted from a minister of the Ministry of Industry, so there happened to be another position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry vacant.

The next day Lin Zhao went to the palace to thank him.

In the imperial study room, the emperor said: "You have made a lot of achievements this time. I have reserved the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry for you for a long time. When you come back to work, you will be fully responsible for the road construction of the Ministry of Industry. "

"Does the emperor mean to promote it in other places?"

"I think Lin'an is developing well, which shows that you were right when you said that if you want to get rich, you need to build roads first. If that's the case, you'll be responsible for building the official roads around the capital. Just tell me what you need, and I'll let the six ministries take full power." cooperate with you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After coming out of the palace, Lin Zhao didn't go back to the palace, but went to Yang Su's mansion.

Yang Su is still in charge of the Ministry of Punishment. Although the official position is not big, he has to do a lot of things every day.

This was the first time Lin Zhao met him after returning to Beijing, and since he didn't make an appointment with Chen Mian, Yang Su guessed that he was looking for something.

"I've heard about the achievements of the third brother in Lin'an, great job!"

Lin Zhao said, "Okay, Brother Yang, don't make fun of me. I came to see you today, not to catch up on the old days. Who needs your help."

"I guessed that you came to see me alone today, and you must have something to do. Tell me, if you need my help."

"You are in the Ministry of Punishment to sort out the files of large and small cases every day. I want you to help me check the files of the Lieyang Army collaborating with the enemy and treason."

Yang Su frowned, "The Lieyang Army case? Hasn't it been years? Why are you looking into it?"

"Brother Yang, please keep this matter a secret. I'm sorry that I can't tell you the truth yet, but I will definitely tell you when the time comes."

"It's okay, if you want to check it, I will check it for you when I go to work tomorrow. It is still very easy for me to get access to these files in my current situation."

After Lin Zhao talked to Yang Su about the past, he got up and left.

After returning to the palace, Steward Chen brought exciting news, saying that the people in the palace had inquired about a genius doctor who was very good at treating throat problems.

Feng Yi's voice is completely unable to speak, but Lin Xing is different.

The old prince specially asked the imperial doctor in the palace to show him, and said that although his condition is congenital, it is not impossible to treat it, but the risk is too high, and if it is not handled properly, it will cause serious problems.

This imperial doctor was a judge of a large hospital, he was over sixty years old and well-informed, and told the old prince that there was probably only one barefoot doctor who wandered around the rivers and lakes all year round who could heal him.

Therefore, the old prince Rong has been asking people to inquire about the news of this barefoot doctor, and until today he finally believed him.

"Where is this genius doctor now? Invite him here quickly." The old prince was very anxious.

Steward Chen said: "Our people reported that this miracle doctor lives in seclusion on the Fengming Mountain in the south, and the old slave has already ordered him to go down, and he will invite the miracle doctor at all costs."

After this incident, Lin Zhao started to work in the Ministry of Industry, and was responsible for all the repairs that were often closed around him.

And Jiang Ziyan continued to do his business, expanding his business territory.

Now his tailor's shop in the capital is very prosperous now, and he has merged the two adjacent shops, more than doubling the size of the whole.

And the order volume of wineries in the western suburbs is increasing day by day, and many businessmen from other places come here admiringly, and place a large number of orders to ship back to the local area for sale.

There is also a milk tea shop, which has become a daily check-in place for ladies and ladies in the capital.

Jiang Ziyan is thinking about opening milk tea branches all over the country, making a chain marketing model, and spreading the reputation of milk tea.

In addition, Jiang Ziyan also contributed to the imperial court a recipe for refining fine salt, which was highly efficient and the refined salt was finer, which made the emperor very happy, and directly named him the number one merchant in the world.

In addition to the thunder/pipe formula contributed by Jiang Ziyan, the emperor appreciated Jiang Ziyan very much.

In addition to the title of No. [-] merchant in the world, he was also rewarded with a token, allowing him to enter the palace at any time.So that when he has any ideas of benefiting the country and the people in the future, he can report to him in time.

With this name, Jiang Ziyan's business is even more powerful.

This is better than the token given to him by Shen Zhou before. All over the country, as long as Jiang Ji's things are trusted by the people, after all, they are boasted by the current emperor himself, can they be fake?

With this name, Jiang Ziyan's business gradually spread to all parts of the country, even to the south of the Yangtze River.

The silk textile industry in the south of the Yangtze River is prosperous, but because of the inconvenient roads, the silk products transported from the south of the Yangtze River are very expensive.

Jiang Ziyan couldn't help but think of the Grand Canal built by the ancients in the previous life.

If water conservancy can be built and the north-south Grand Canal can be built, it will not only help irrigate farmland and increase farm income, but also develop shipping and connect the north and the south, which will benefit the political and economic development of the country.

At that time, the north-south communication will be convenient, and the silk fabrics on the south side of the Grand Canal can be transported to the north for sale, and the unique things in the north will be transported to the south of the Yangtze River, which will greatly enhance the national strength of the entire country.

After Jiang Ziyan had this idea, he specially wrote a more detailed proposal.

After finishing writing, he specially showed it to Lin Zhao first, and asked, "Do you think the plan is feasible?"

After reading it carefully, Lin Zhao said, "I really don't know how your brain grows. There are so many strange and useful things. If the emperor sees it, he will be delighted again."

"Really? You said that the emperor will approve the proposal? Does that mean he will agree to build the Grand Canal?"

Lin Zhao folded the plan and put it aside, and said, "Not necessarily. Although I have read the plan, I think it is very feasible. And if it is completed, it will definitely benefit future generations for many years. But there is a problem, the construction The Grand Canal is a big project, and it is bound to cost people and money.

In the past few years, Da Wei has recovered some vitality after recuperating, but the treasury is still not rich.At that time, once someone mentions this matter in the court, there will be courtiers who will object.At that time, we can only see whether the emperor's will is firm or not. "

"What do you mean? See if the emperor is firm?"

"If he can withstand the opposition of the stubborn and corrupt old ministers below, then maybe this thing can be done."

Jiang Ziyan sighed, "This is obviously a good thing that benefits the country and the people, why do those veterans object?"

"Do you think they have been officials in the court for so long, and they don't have any family members or friends running business? The road map of the Grand Canal will definitely harm their interests when it is planned, so they object."

Jiang Ziyan said helplessly: "Okay, I will go to the palace to meet the emperor another day, and tell him about this matter. Let him decide whether to build it or not."

So Jiang Ziyan found a day to enter the palace and presented the plan to the emperor, and told him his thoughts in detail.

After hearing this, the emperor looked at Jiang Ziyan differently. Jiang Ziyan's proposal really touched his heart.

He had such an idea a few years ago, but he has been suffering from the empty treasury, and the whole country is waiting to be built. He dare not propose such a big project as the construction of the Grand Canal. After all, it is indeed a waste of money and people.

But a few years later, Jiang Ziyan actually proposed this idea, which was even more detailed than his idea, and the plan was written very well.

The emperor said: "It's really a waste of talent for you not to enter the court as an official. How about it? Do you have any ideas about becoming an official? I can make an exception and make you an official."

Jiang Ziyan quickly waved his hand, "No need for the emperor, Caomin is really not interested in being an official. But I am still very willing to do my best for the emperor and for us Great Wei."

When Jiang Ziyan left the palace, he brought a lot of rewards, all of which were rewarded by the emperor. It can be seen that the emperor is very satisfied with his plan.

As for how to pass the courtier's test, that's not something Jiang Ziyan should worry about.

The days passed by like this day by day, and it will soon be two months later.

One day Lin Zhao was returning home from the Ministry of Industry, but the carriage was blocked on the road before he got home.

He had been busy for a whole day, and he was resting his mind in the carriage with his eyes closed, when he suddenly felt that the carriage had stopped, he opened the curtain and saw that he hadn't arrived at the palace yet.

So he asked: "What's going on? Why did it stop?"

Chen He said: "Returning to my son, Princess Qingyang stood in front of the carriage and couldn't drive it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a delicate and melodious voice sounded from outside, "My lord, I am the princess of Qingyang, I am really disturbing you today, but Qingyang has admired your lord for a long time, and I will hold a banquet at the Manyue Tower tomorrow, and ask your lord to show me your face. Come and talk."

Princess Qingyang is the No. 1 woman who stops people and carriages on the street for an appointment.

She has always been confident in her appearance, so she ostentatiously blocks people on the street, one is to attract the attention of the other party, and the other is that she will definitely accept her post out of face.After all, she is the princess of Qingyang County, so it is impossible for her to get off the stage in the street.

Since Lin Zhao was transferred back from Lin'an, Princess Qingyang sent him a lot of posts to Prince Rong's Mansion, but all of these posts fell to nothing, and he didn't reply to any of them.

After waiting for two months, Princess Qingyang's patience finally ran out. This day, she spent a day on Lin Zhao's only way back to the palace after get off work from the Ministry of Industry, and finally let her wait.

But Lin Zhao didn't even look at her, and said through the curtain of the carriage: "Thanks to the princess's love, but this son is not blessed to bear it. Chen He, detour."

Chen He nodded, turned the carriage around, and left by another road that was farther away.

At this time, there were more and more people onlookers, Princess Qingyang was trembling with anger, staring in the direction of the carriage with a livid face, she always boasted that she was beautiful, but she didn't expect that the other party would be so disrespectful to her, and really let her stand on the street Can't get off stage.

Seeing that the master was so angry, the personal maid at the side said cautiously: "Master, why don't we go back first?"

There are more and more people watching here. If she doesn't leave, she will be seen as a monkey in the street. Finally, she shook her sleeves severely and got on her own carriage to go home.

The carriage drove all the way to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, and Princess Qingyang became more and more angry as she got off the carriage and went straight back to her yard.

In the room, with a flick of her sleeves, the teacups on the table, some expensive vases on the shelf, and even some imperial porcelain were all thrown to the ground by her.
