The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2172 Finalized

In the end, Dai Zhou and Wei Zheng negotiated and finalized the deal with a total price of 60 billion taels.

Yan Lide followed suit and designed the bridge.

And also took a helicopter to go to the local area to check, and sent people to measure the seabed of the ocean.

In order to ensure that the subsequent design conforms to the construction.

If the sea bottom is too soft at one point, you may need to change your route.

This will be a huge project.

Because the news of the bridge building spread, the people of Dengzhou were enthusiastic.Many people even volunteered to participate in the construction.

Li Shimin was very happy about this.

However, the subsequent construction will not only require manpower, but also requires mechanical ships, and these ships are not small and require more professional people to participate.

Therefore, the role of the common people can be said to be very small.

Someone proposed moving stones or something.

But Shengtang Group has excavators and trucks, so it doesn't need people at all.

Some people also proposed to dedicate their own fields, but the building materials required by the Shengtang Group were very harsh and strict.

Ordinary stuff is not enough.

In the end, the people felt that neither this nor that would work.

Therefore, we could only spontaneously organize food delivery to the people of Shengtang Group.

That's always okay, right?
But Shengtang Group doesn’t want it.

Although they don't want it, the common people still want to do it, saying that it is a good thing that benefits the country and the people, and it is a century-old plan.

As long as there is a Shengtang Group, the people will feel at ease.

Even many literati have written a large number of works praising the Shengtang Group.

But when these news reached Li Shimin's ears, he was not happy.

"What are these people thinking? I asked the Ministry of Industry to take the lead in doing this. How can they thank Shengtang Group?"

Li Shimin was very annoyed, he said to Empress Changsun.

In fact, it will be like this, and whoever it is, no one will be happy.

Empress Changsun said: "Your Majesty, because this matter can only be done by the Shengtang Group. This time the Shengtang Group has indeed contributed. If they don't do it, then no one in the world can do it. I I heard that this bridge is very difficult, so they are fully prepared for the next step."

"However, although what you said is correct, I am still upset."

"Your Majesty, as long as the economy of the Tang Dynasty is good, it doesn't matter who does it. If it is done by the imperial court, then the people will still turn to the imperial court. The key is who is doing it and who the common people only see. While doing things, I don’t know anything about the existence behind it.”

Empress Changsun's words relieved Li Shimin a little.

This is indeed the case. The common people only have two eyes. What they see is that the Shengtang Group is working hard to build the bridge, but they don't see people from the imperial court appearing in the construction team.

If it's the other way around, the common people will definitely turn to Li Shimin.

There is nothing wrong with this.

Therefore, Li Shimin really didn't need to think so much.

"Queen, you are right. I didn't understand it this time, but now I understand it."

Li Shimin said so.

Empress Changsun breathed a sigh of relief.

It doesn't matter if he really understands it or not.

It's best to really understand, that would be the best thing.

"Come here, let Dai Zhou enter the palace! I have something to ask him."

Then Li Shimin said again.

Empress Changsun was relieved because Li Shimin would not say anything more on this issue.

Therefore it is good.

"Yes!" Tai Tai listened to the order and left the palace directly.

Hurry up to Xuan Daizhou to enter the palace.

Dai Zhou stayed in Zhongshu Province, not too far from Taiji Palace.

And today he has a lot on his plate.

In addition to the original things, Li Shimin imposed many things on him, which made him miserable.

But since Li Shimin said to let him enter the palace, there is no possibility that he will not enter the palace.

Therefore, Dai Zhou came to the Tai Chi Palace in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, what are you looking for?" Dai Zhou asked.

"What about the Shengtang Group's money now?"

Li Shimin asked.

Turns out he was asking this.

Only when the money is in place, the bridge will be built faster.

If there was no money, the bridge would probably stop.

Sheng Tang Group is not like others, there is a question of how much to pay in advance.

Because they are very strict on quality.

As long as the money is in place, Shengtang Group will definitely do better.

Dai Zhou quickly said: "One billion taels of silver have been paid, and now they have started designing. The next step is to prepare a large amount of building materials!"

Li Shimin was very satisfied after hearing this.

This is Datang's speed.

But to be honest, after giving the money, it made him a little uncomfortable.

But for Datang's future economy, he didn't say anything.

"Okay, close relationship, the money must be in place, and there are 50 billion taels that you need to pay within a year, there must be no mistakes!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"By the way, about how they did the construction..." When Li Shimin said this, he suddenly thought of Duan Lun.

So, he said: "Let Duan Lun come!"

"Yes!"

The eunuch went to invite Duan Lun into the palace.

Then Li Shimin talked a lot with Dai Zhou.

Dai Zhou took the order and left Tai Chi Palace.

Then Duan Lun appeared.

"Your Majesty, what do you want from me?"

"During this period of time, I want you to select construction craftsmen to supervise the construction of the bridge on the surface. In fact, you need to understand how they build the bridge. I want them to learn from it. In the future, we can also build bridges. !”

It turned out that Li Shimin was thinking about this.

In this way, he will not be too passive.

The reason why he did this was because he was too passive in doing things.

Everywhere is limited by Shengtang Group's technology.

This made him very uncomfortable.

So, he wanted to do it himself.

In the future, if there is such a bridge, he can let his own people do it.

But in reality, he could hire someone out of architecture school to do it.

But he didn't.

Duan Lun should say: "Yes, Your Majesty, I understand."

"Okay, just understand it. Don't make this matter public. Those people have to be trustworthy, you know?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Okay, it's none of your business, you go out and do it."

"Yes!" Duan Lun left, and then Li Shimin's phone rang.

It was Cheng Yaojin calling.

Now Cheng Yaojin is already in Turks, fighting for the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin was very happy when he received his call.

"Zhijie, what's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, I want to report good news to you!" Cheng Yaojin said.When Li Shimin heard the good news, he became cheerful.

"Tell me! What's the matter!"

"Now the tribes of Western Turks are in chaos. We have supported some tribes and provided some relatively backward weapons to help them annex other tribes. Now Turks are in chaos!"

"Very good, how is Ashina Horu doing now?"

Li Shimin is very concerned about Ashina Helu's situation.

But even if Ashina Helu is killed, there will be a new Ashina Helu in the future, but according to Li Shimin, Ashina Helu must die.

And it is impossible for people from other tribes to form a joint force again.

The Turks will be broken up, and in the future, they may be in a stage of no rule.

Regarding the Turks, Li Shimin actually did not want to occupy them because it was not necessary.

As long as I develop to the east, that's enough, and there is no need to go west at all.

As long as the west side is well and stable.

Others he really didn't ask for much.

"Ashina Helu is beaten to the bum by us now, don't mention how happy he is, this guy, I will definitely bring his head back to Chang'an to His Majesty!" Cheng Yaojin said again.

"The main thing is to kill chickens and monkeys. Show off the strength of the Tang army."

Li Shimin said again.

"Your Majesty, I understand. I have done a lot in this regard!"

Cheng Yaojin has not fought a war for many years, and now he is very happy to fight.

Coupled with the crushing of weapons and equipment, he fought this battle extremely happily.

"That's great, and I'm also relieved."

"It's still the result of His Majesty's wisdom!" Cheng Yaojin said.

Li Shimin smiled without saying a word.

"Okay, if you have anything to say, try to say it, you know?"

"Yes! Na Chen hung up the phone!"

After Cheng Yaojin hung up the phone.

Li Shimin called the propaganda personnel again and said: "Go and notify the TV station immediately. There are also newspapers to broadcast the news about the victory of the Tang army. For specific reports, ask Zhijie! Do you understand?"

Li Shimin's purpose in doing this was to publicize his victory, which was a good thing for himself and Datang.

It's something that can be inspiring.

It can make people's hearts boil.

It can also improve Li Shimin's reputation.

This is a good opportunity to publicize, and he doesn't want to miss it.

Therefore, choose at this time to broadcast the news of victory.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Therefore, the relevant personnel of the propaganda immediately went to write some news about the front line.

And the intelligence on the front line was broadcast around the clock.

And these intelligence messages can be seen even by Li Yin who is far away in Dongzhou.

Today’s technology is different than it used to be.

It was impossible to see these things before.

Regarding Li Shimin's propaganda, Li Min said, this is very Li Shimin!
But he didn't say anything in particular.

Because this is a routine operation.

……

when everything is ready.

Li Shimin was also free.

He didn't leave the palace that day, so he flew to Daming Palace with Empress Changsun in a helicopter.

When they reached the top floor of Daming Palace.

Look at everything below.

Now the entire Chang'an night view project is already very beautiful.

Because of Li Shimin's help, the entire city of Chang'an became very modern.

And Li Shimin also let go of the building, but still restricted the height of the building, and everything was not allowed to be higher than Daming Palace.

Moreover, tall buildings are not allowed within five miles of Tai Chi Palace.

Because Tai Chi Palace does not allow tall buildings to sandwich Tai Chi Palace.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun stood on the top floor of Daming Palace, watching everything below.

As night falls, the night view project of Chang'an City begins to show its unique charm.

Looking down from a tall building, the sky is full of bright lights, like a dynamic and beautiful map.

The majestic tenement houses are flickering with huge light advertisements, running quickly like shooting stars piercing the night sky.Shuttle through the streets and alleys of the city, fluorescent tubes, neon lights, street lights and other lights build a gorgeous light curtain, dyeing everything revealed at night lively and beautiful.

At this time, there are already many scenic spots in Chang'an City.

Eighty percent of these classics are man-made by Li Yinrang.

The fountain in the Bell Tower Square has gorgeous lights, dancing in the wind and swaying shadows, bringing a visual feast to people.

In the Shengtang Group, the musical fountain plays music together, and the water splashes and notes dance alternately, as delicate and smooth as silk, and the brilliant mercury light jumps down, making people intoxicated.

The water pavilion full of artistic conception stands leisurely in the center of the pond, with rippling water, reflecting the starry lights, and the whole square is transformed into a picture scroll of nature.

Looking at everything in front of him, he suddenly felt majestic.

The exquisite reflections of the lights make the night view of the entire Chang'an city magnificent.

Chang'an at night seems to have become a commercial metropolis, and now Chang'an is a place where nightlife gathers, and it is also an antique city.

The Chang'an Night View Project makes the city exude endless charm at night, attracting countless tourists to linger and linger in the night.

The night here seems to never feel tired, and it seems that it will never lose that special charm.

"The night scene project in Chang'an has been deeply rooted in people's hearts, and it makes people feel very comfortable, especially in this night full of joy, people can't sleep." Li Shimin said with emotion.

"Your Majesty's words are very true. In the past, there were no shows at night, but now you can play until midnight without feeling too late."

Li Shimin also realized this.

"In the words of Shengtang Group, this is called nightlife."

Li Shimin said so.

"Yes, Your Majesty! It's nightlife."

"But problems have also emerged." Li Shimin added.

"what is the problem?"

"It's tantamount to using the time you used to sleep to complete economic development, trading human bodies for prosperity."

Li Shimin is still sober in the world and knows that this model is not good.

But the results are so good that it’s hard to stop.

Because the economy has developed, the lives of the people have become better.

People no longer spend their time sleeping.

Instead, do something good.

Like drinking.

Such as study!

Like many things.

And these behaviors have indeed played a great role in promoting economically.

Therefore, nightlife can at least increase Datang's economic vitality by ten times, or even more.

Empress Changsun was shocked by Li Shimin's words.

"Your Majesty, this is indeed the case, but the benefits of nightlife to the economy outweigh the disadvantages. Although some people's health will be lost. However, it has indeed improved the economic development. It has provided more job opportunities and made the people more stable."

"Yes, what you said is correct, but the problem is that our court is also under a lot of pressure. In the past, we only needed a curfew, but now we have to allocate forces to manage these merchants! We also need to prevent some people from doing things that are not conducive to society! "

Li Shimin said again.

But he quickly said: "However, the result is always good. That kid's idea is really unique, but recently, do you feel that the kid's improvement in this aspect is getting less and less."

"This..." Empress Changsun didn't know what to say.
