Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

Time passed quickly, and now it was four years since Chen Yang ascended the throne.

It is now the fourth year of Taishi.

spring.

Chen Yang sits safely on the throne of the emperor, and the long-lost peace is restored in the world. Haiyan and rivers are clear, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. There has not been a single war in the past four years.

Also in the past four years, Dayu's industry has developed rapidly, and its level has never been higher.

Under the arrangement of Pan Xiong, a hydropower station was established in Weishui River, and power generation was officially started. First, the cables were brought to the palace in Chang'an.

Now oil lamps, candles and other things have been eliminated by them, and electric lights are used as a luxury.

Many things that will only exist in future generations have been tossed out by Pan Xiong and Ma Jun one after another, and the changes are too great.

In the past few years, Pan Xiong didn't have any problems, and he wholeheartedly helped Chen Yang develop his industry.

But Chen Yang was very curious, but he didn't ask him about this doubt.

Maybe he has a secret and doesn't want to say it.

As for the idle prince, Chen Yang certainly satisfied his request, but the extravagant life this guy wanted to talk about, singing every night, marrying ten or eight wives, has never been realized.

In the huge palace, there was only him and a few maids.

One day, Pan Xiong asked someone to enter the palace and said that he had a surprise to show Chen Yang, and invited him to visit the factory.

Chen Yang felt curious, and came to the factory under the protection of a group of guards.

Wang Yue naturally became the head of the guards around him and continued to be the personal guard.

"Your Majesty, you are here!"

Pan Xiong said eagerly, "Come on, take our things out."

Chen Yang asked curiously, "What the hell are you tossing about?"

"It's definitely a good thing, His Majesty will definitely like it!"

As soon as Pan Xiong finished speaking, he saw several workers coming out carrying a familiar object.

Chen Yang looked at it carefully for a while, and said in surprise: "Isn't this an internal combustion engine!"

He couldn't help but groan in his heart, this guy even made an internal combustion engine, so wouldn't he be helping him build a car next?Thinking about it this way, I suddenly became excited, there is really such a possibility.

Traveling through such a long time, Chen Yang had forgotten how long he hadn't touched the steering wheel if the virtual world wasn't counted.

Pan Xiong said with a smile: "It turns out that His Majesty still remembers the internal combustion engine, and it is indeed the internal combustion engine!"

Chen Yang quickly asked again: "You can use this thing?"

"Of course!"

Pan Xiong patted his heart and said: "In order to get this thing, three years ago, I took people to a place called Daqing in later generations, and extracted a lot of oil."

As he spoke, he personally poured a can of gasoline into the internal combustion engine and started it again.

As the familiar mechanical sound sounded, the machine was really moving, the sound was a bit noisy, and the black smoke was thick.

"It's still a little bit worse. I'll remodel it in a month or two and it will be almost there."

Pan Xiong was caught off guard by the black smoke, coughed hard, and quickly turned it off.

Seeing that the internal combustion engine could really start, Chen Yang asked expectantly, "Can you build a car?"

Pan Xiong smiled and said: "I just made this thing for the purpose of building a car. It can definitely be made for His Majesty in a year at most. But there is a car. In terms of roads, Chang'an's is still not very good at present."

The current roads are all the most primitive ones. If you want a car to run fast, you must at least have a cement road. It just so happens that Chen Yang has already tossed the cement out.

"Of course there is no problem in building roads, but my Dayu has just been established for a few years, and it is difficult to build it on a large scale across the country. I will do it in Guanzhong first, and then spread it out later."

Chen Yang considered this, nodded slightly, and said, "When will you be able to figure out things like radios, computers, and chips?"

Pan Xiong smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you really think that I am omnipotent. I have done so much in four years, which is already at the level of my ceiling. If you give me another ten years to do things like chips, I may not be able to achieve them."

Chen Yang laughed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then in ten years, teach more apprentices, and you should work together very quickly."

"I have many apprentices in the factory, but how much they can learn depends on their own understanding."

Pan Xiong really had no private possessions, but he said: "Your Majesty, I will give you a suggestion. If possible, first control the Persian Gulf area. Anyway, it is not very far away from us. There will be an energy crisis in future generations, and there will be the most contested area. fierce."

This proposal sounds good, and it seems that it can be implemented.

For the sake of oil, the beautiful country of later generations has always acted as a shit stick in that area. In the era when other new energy sources were not popularized and discovered, oil has always been the most important resource.

Chen Yang pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "During the five years since I ascended the throne, my plan is to only cultivate my life and rest, and I don't want to fight against the outside world. But what you said makes sense. I will think about it after five years, but I have one condition. , all the cars you build are off-road."

Pan Xiong instantly understood his thoughts and said with a smile, "I understand. After all, it is difficult to build a road as far as the Persian Gulf."

After making these arrangements, Chen Yang went back to the Ministry of Industry to discuss the road construction.

Jiang Wei and the others opposed it at first, after all, it was a waste of money.

In the end, it was Chen Yang who persuaded Mizhu to invest a sum of money in lieu of advance payment from the treasury, to build the road first, and then to guarantee that he would get corresponding benefits in the future. He also discussed the benefits of the road to the country and so on.

Since there was no need for money from the treasury, Jiang Wei did not refuse.

Less than a year later, when the road was almost built, Pan Xiong sent someone to tell Chen Yang again that he had already built the first off-road vehicle.

"Go and see!"

When Chen Yang heard this, he immediately dropped his official duties.

When Xun Yu and Jiang Wei met, they directly said that Chen Yang was playing with things and lost his ambition, which would only ruin the country.

As for cars, they have only heard of them and don't know what they are. Before, they only knew about horse-drawn carts and ox carts, and they didn't have any concept of cars.

But they all objected to throwing money into it, thinking that it shouldn't be like this.

Chen Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he just explained: "You two have misunderstood, I'm not just playing around with things, it's just that you follow me to take a look, and you'll know what a car is."

No matter how they objected, Chen Yang dragged them outside the factory.

The road here has long been open, the ground is solid concrete, and a tall and mighty off-road vehicle appeared in front of them.

Pan Xiong also transformed it into the shape of a pickup truck, with a heavy machine gun on the roof, and a miniature turret behind it, as well as various shells.

These weapons were produced by Pan Xiong in the past few years.

Chen Yang knew that the truth was only within the range of cannons. After he took the throne, he vigorously developed national defense, especially weapons.

Because weapons are good for guarding the country, no matter how much money is spent, Jiang Wei and the others will not oppose it, and they are very supportive.

Anyway, Mi Zhu is responsible for making money for Dayu, so he still has to invest.

But when they saw the car, they opened their mouths in surprise.

This is the car?

Not quite what they imagined, more like a fort.
