    ¡°Railway?¡± Mr. Yang Bo shouted at the same time.

    "Yes, railway tracks!" Zhao Hao said solemnly: "It can increase the transportation capacity of Jingxing Road by more than ten times!"

    Yang Bo and Yang Sihe are no strangers to orbit.

    After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, the first thing he did was to "carry the same track and write the same text".

    Until now, there are still two or three-inch deep tracks on the official road to accommodate the wheels, which can prevent the carriage from wandering and greatly reduce the burden on the horses.

    But weren¡¯t the tracks cut out on the road?  How did it become iron?  Er Yang didn't understand this.

    "To put it simply, the original Jingxing Road is filled and compacted with ballast stones, and then the sleepers are laid, and then rails are laid on the sleepers! When the carriage runs on such rails, the cargo capacity will be several times the original, and  The speed will also be greatly improved, and you can go from Yangquan to Zhengding in the same day."

    "Is it so powerful?" Yang Bo and Yang Sihe gasped.  "Can it really happen?"

    The importance of Jingxing Road cannot be overstated because it is the lifeline of transportation connecting the Jinzhong Basin and the North China Plain.  Three hundred years later, Shanxi's first railway, the Zhengtai Railway, was built along the Jingxing Line.

    "Zhengtai" means Zhengding as far as Taiyuan.  Zhengding is Shijiazhuang in later generations, and Yangquan is at the midpoint of the Zhengtai Line.

    Zhao Hao was afraid of frightening Eryang by directly throwing out the "positive tai line", so he first folded them in half and came up with a "positive yang line".

    How could Er Yang, especially Yang Bo, not know what this ¡®Zhengyang Line¡¯ means to Shanxi?  That means that Shanxi will be connected with the prosperous North China Plain, and will no longer have to face the same miserable northern Shaanxi.

    What Yang Sihe thinks is that in that case, population and market will not be a problem.

    What Yang Bo thinks is that in that case, Shanxi¡¯s status in the Ming Dynasty will be greatly improved!

    But even from Yangquan to Zhengding, there is still a distance of 1,780 miles.  And they need to lay railroad tracks

    With such a huge project involving all aspects, even the dignified Heavenly Official Yang Bo would not dare to guarantee it!

    "Of course it can be done!" Zhao Hao knew their concerns well and encouraged them firmly:

    "Yangquan is a treasure land. In addition to coal, there is also a large amount of iron ore. This is an advantage that cannot be matched elsewhere. It is fully qualified for building railways. Moreover, ironmaking will consume a lot of coal, and it can also promote the business of Shanxi Company.  This coal-railway joint venture model is not as simple as one plus one equals two!¡±

    "Yeah." Eryang listened extremely seriously and nodded.  Yang Sihe did not dare to miss a word.

    "Besides, what we are talking about is, isn't this the second step?" Zhao Hao changed the topic and relieved the pressure on the two of them: "It will take you a year or two to finish Taiyuan, right? Wait until I settle down with my father.  Come down and lay a sample road first, then Brother Sihe will come over and see for yourself if it can be done. If it can be done, I will build this road for you!"

    A fox is a fox after all, and there will always be a moment when its tail is exposed

    It¡¯s just that at this time, even Yang Bo couldn¡¯t understand the importance of right of way ¨C it is the lifeblood of a province and a country!

    ? ? ? ? ?Old Yang Bo is still afraid that he will regret it

    "My dear nephew, this is what you said! I'll leave the Zhengyang Railway to you!" Yang Bo immediately grabbed Zhao Hao's hand and said in a loud voice: "You don't need to worry about the rest. I'm here to help."  You take care of it!¡±

    "Okay, I promise. If you let go first, you will break your bones." Zhao Hao wrinkled his face and gasped for air, which completely concealed the look on his face.

    The Zhengyang Road and the future Zhengtai Road he proposed are to closely connect Shanxi with the Central Plains.

    It saves Shanxi merchants from having no way out and always running away from home.  After running three times and two times, she turned out to be a traitor If there were no rich iron ore and saltpeter resources in Shanxi, what would the female straight people have to fight against the army?

    "It's better to attract their attention to the Central Plains and let them sell coal wholeheartedly than to betray the country, right?"

    Thinking that he might have saved Shanxi merchants from a bad reputation in the future, Zhao Hao felt that they would give him a glass of jealousy

    Oh no, Pu'er.

    ??~~

    Yang Sihe asked Zhao Hao again, what should he do if he goes south?

    Mr. Zhao stopped talking and asked them to take the first two steps first.

    "Okay, don't be dissatisfied." Yang Bo waved his hand and said to his nephew, "Nephew Zhao Xian is afraid that you will bite off more than you can chew."

    In fact, both smart men know that half of the shares can only be exchanged for so much

    But they were really reluctant to take out more.

    I have no choice but to hold on to my curiosity first and wait until the first two steps really show results.Say it again.

    Fortunately, Shanxi merchants have never been very curious.

    ??~~

    Before we knew it, we were chatting until noon.

    Yang Sihe said goodbye and left, but Yang Bo enthusiastically stayed with Zhao Hao, and called Wang Bengu and Lu Guangzu to his room to eat noodles.

    This time we won¡¯t talk about serious business anymore, just some official anecdotes and interesting things in Beijing.

    And whether it¡¯s officialdom or Beijing, the most interesting things these days are all done by Zhao Hao and his son

    When everyone said that Zhao Hao had someone carry Zhao Shouzheng and walked half way around Beijing before returning home, they all laughed so hard that they lost their dignity.

    "My dear nephew, you are so fucking cool with your skills. The other day I heard that Zhao Zhuangyuan petitioned for orders for the people and remonstrated with his face, but was brutally beaten by the imperial staff. I was stunned." Yang Bo laughed loudly while peeling garlic.  He smiled and said, "Could it be that we held a fake court meeting?"

    The last sentence was addressed to Wang Bengu.

    Wang Shilang picked up the handkerchief and wiped his mouth. He also became playful in front of his boss.  "Isn't that true? We clearly discussed Zhao Zhuangyuan's crime of beating Mr. Xiaoge. How could we not pay attention and Zhao Zhuangyuan became a persecuted loyal minister, while Mr. Xiaoge became a street rat?"

    "It can be seen that justice is in the heart of the people." Zhao Hao was very thick-skinned and said without any shame: "Besides, my father has received the imperial staff."

    "I think Mr. Xiao Ge will definitely want to change with your father." Lu Guangzu also smiled and said: "Even if he comes to receive this imperial staff? It is better than having people pour dirt on the door and throw garbage into the yard all day long  ¡­¡±

    "Oh? Is there such a thing?" Zhao Hao looked surprised, as if he didn't ask someone to do it.

    Generally speaking, if you want to improve yourself, you sometimes have to put others down.

    If you want to forcibly elevate yourself, you have to forcibly belittle others

    Zhao Hao then hired hundreds of ordinary people to go to the Prime Minister's residence on West Chang'an Street every day to curse loudly in the street.

    Not only did he scold the capital, but he also revealed the good deeds done by the old Xu family in Su Song.

    What¡¯s even more outrageous is that he also had people make up nursery rhymes and spread them all over the capital.

    In just a few days, Mr. Xu Ge¡¯s positive image has been completely tarnished.

    Originally, the old man planned to go to Lingji Palace for a farewell performance before leaving.

    Seeing that people were scolding me all day long outside, the old man also lost interest and canceled the lecture.
