Ha ha!
"Same Jubilee! Same Jubilee!"
Li Er is in a good mood!
It's really good!
Within the empire, various principles and policies have been implemented, and the living standards of the people are improving day by day.
The national power is increasing and the military power is improving.
Successive victories in foreign wars.
Not only took down Tubo, which was a threat to the empire, but also took down Yanhuang No. 1 Island.
The key point is that the imperial army did not suffer much in the battle between the two places, but gained a lot.
"Your Majesty, from Yanhuang No. 1 Island, our army escorted back millions of native captives for the construction of imperial water conservancy,
Road construction played a huge role.Weichen suggested that to completely solve the flood problem, the Yellow River must be dredged again.
Only by dredging the river again will it not cause harm to the surrounding areas of the Yellow River. "
Wang Gui said.
"Master Wang, the project to dredge the Yellow River is huge, and the empire is short of money! Let's make it easy first, and wait until the empire's finances improve!"
The eldest grandson said nothing.
When it comes to money, the Minister of the Household Department immediately looks bad.
"Your Majesty, the tax revenue of the empire has gradually increased in recent years, and it is indeed a matter of dredging the Yellow River. It is really terrible to spend money on disaster relief on the Yellow River every year. It is better to take care of it because it is repaired every year."
Wei Zheng suggested.
"Your Majesty, I also feel that we should really dredge the Yellow River while we have a lot of free labor."
Wei Ting said.
"Your Majesty, it doesn't cost much money to dredge the Yellow River in all directions. With free labor, this matter will not be too troublesome. I agree to dredge the Yellow River."
Gao Jian said.
"Chongyuan, if you have any thoughts, let everyone listen."
Li Er called out his name.
"Your Majesty, I also feel that the Yellow River can be dredged, after all, it concerns thousands of families on both sides of the river.
The losses caused by floods in one year are really huge.That kind of expenditure, accumulatively for ten years, is enough for all-round dredging. "
Kong Yingda said.
"Xuanling, what do you think?"
Li Erdao.
"Your Majesty, I agree to build the Yellow River. However, I feel that it is not advisable to dredge the Yellow River in all directions.
Since it costs so much, why not rebuild a Yellow River and divert the Yellow River completely.
In that way, not only solve the problem of flooding, but also alleviate the arid areas in the north.
Once, Weichen heard from Du He that in order to completely change the flooding of the Yellow River, a new channel must be dug. "
Fang Xuanling said.
Oh!
"Xuanling, you're right! I've also heard from that kid Du He that it seems to be from the big bend of the Yellow River.
Instead of turning the Yellow River, it flows directly into the northern region, and from a suitable place in Youzhou, let the river flow into the sea.
In that way, not only has the problem of water shortage in the northern region been changed, but it has also completely solved the flood problem on the two banks of the Yellow River for thousands of years. "
Li Erdao.
More than a dozen important officials hurriedly checked the map that Li Er had spread out.
The important ministers talked one after another.
Good idea!
If it can be opened, the Yellow River flood will no longer exist.
The investment is too great.
"Auxiliary machine, the investment will not be large. There are so many prisoners, we just need to give some food and some tools.
In the past few years, the empire's food harvest has been bumper every year. Couldn't it supply the food for more than a million captives?This is a major event that benefits the country and the people.
No matter how difficult it is, a project must be established.Let people survey the river route first, and then estimate how much food will be needed. "
Li Er made a promise.
"Your Majesty, I suggest that when surveying the new river, let Du He's Chang'an Industrial Park send craftsmen,
On the new river course, build a river dam together and reserve a generator set.otherwise.It will not be easy to build dams in the future. "
Fang Xuanling said.
Six months ago, through Tesla's hard work, several industries were opened up, and the hydroelectric generator set was finally built.
Chang'an City was the first city to benefit.
At this time, Chang'an was powered on, and every household was powered on, and the lights were turned on.
This has a huge impact.
This made Li Er, the Holy Lord and Ming Jun, extremely excited.
As a result, many new factories have been built in Chang'an Industrial Park.
What wire drawing factories, cable factories, smelters, motor factories, light bulb factories, power companies, transmission companies, etc.
Because Du He was not in Chang'an, some interested people attacked the craftsmen in the park.
Offered a lot of very tempting conditions, trying to poach Du He's corner.
But what?
Of the tens of thousands of craftsmen, only a dozen accepted the temptation and left the industrial park, while the rest of the craftsmen were not tempted.
This made Du He very happy.
After leaving more than a dozen craftsmen, Du He was not afraid at all.
A lot of technologies have been applied for patent protection. Once it is found that someone wants to imitate, Du He's subordinates will immediately go to the Yamen to file a complaint.
Although in this era, the awareness of property rights is not high.
But what?
You can make people have a sense of innovation through litigation.
Du He did not sue for money, but wanted people to raise awareness, emphasize the spirit of contract, and not to infringe upon rights.
The artisans who left were blacklisted by the industrial park.
All Duhe's industries will not be used again in the future.
Speaking of electrification, the ministers were excited.
"Your Majesty, Xuanling is right! If all the people in the world are connected to electricity, it will not only be convenient for scholars, but also for the common people.
This is a great thing. We must inform the craftsmen in the Duhe Industrial Park and send personnel to survey the route together. "
Wang Gui said.
"Your Majesty, there is another matter. Du He is on an expedition and is not at home. However, I heard that some people in Chang'an City
Want to occupy Duhe industry.Originally, Weichen didn't want to mind this matter, but Du He's industrial park,
Not everyone can manage it well. The people in the park, whether artisans or managers,
Including those technical school students who respect Du He very much, besides, Du He's industrial park has driven the development of surrounding industries,
Let the imperial tax increase every year.If the industrial park collapses, the loss will still be the empire.I hope that Your Majesty will have time to ask. "
Wei Zhengdao, the straight man of steel.
Li Er frowned slightly.
Li Er knew this in his heart, and he knew it well.
But what?
The person who made the decision was Li Er's relatives and son.
I never asked. To be honest, Li Er also had thoughts in his mind.
There is even a shadow of Li Er in it.
It's just unexpected that the industrial park is really hard to grab.
If it is not done well, the artisans will quit.
In the end an empty shell remains.
Like Tesla and Shen Wansan, no matter how seduced Li Er is, it will not work at all, and he will not betray Du He.
Of course, Du He was very clear about these things.
The shadow that Du He planned to build is not for nothing.
Report the situation to Du He immediately.
"Okay, I will come forward in this matter and let those people with ulterior motives stop, otherwise, I will cut their hands."
Li Erdao.
Li Er also does not want the industrial park to affect its tax revenue due to random actions. After all, industrial and commercial taxes increase every year.
It has already accounted for about half of the total tax revenue of the empire.
Most of them are contributed by Duhe Industrial Park.
Once the industrial park collapses, the empire's tax revenue will drop sharply, which is not what Li Er wants.
Chapter 419 The First Island Chain
It is also because the four industrial parks under Du He have too much tax revenue, so that Li Er dare not take it lightly.
After all, Li Er and his sons and relatives could not control the four industrial parks at all, and many new technologies came from Du He.
Du He provided drawings for production, and there were many production links.
It's not that it can be produced by seducing a few craftsmen.
Half of the imperial army's tax revenue is provided by Duhe's industrial park.
Li Er had to be cautious.
In particular, Tesla invented alternating current and many products, which made Li Er very worried and difficult to start.
That being the case, Li Er can only cooperate, and cannot rob or occupy unscrupulously.
Another point is that the navy really doesn't care much about Li Er, and he still doesn't care about sea power.
For the development of the Beihai Fleet, Li Er did not give money, nor did the military, and Du He paid for it all.
Li Er didn't know how powerful the fleet's warships were, and only received reports from spies.
The spies don't know the situation of the navy, and the performance and firepower configuration of those warships are also unclear.
After all, Lu Xun is a member of Du He and will never betray him.
Du He is secretly seeking self-protection, and will not easily entrust his life on Li Er's reputation as a holy master and a wise king.
"Okay, dear friends, now let's discuss the control and development of the four Yanhuang Islands."
Li Erdao.
According to past practice, the empire would not be interested in islands like the Four Yanhuang Islands, only the land.
This is because for thousands of years, people in the Central Plains know too little about the sea. No matter what great works, they only discuss land, not sea power.
