Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

The next day, the butcher shop owner selected a few kilograms of the best quality pork and came to the palace to ask to see Chu Ze, hoping that his street would be included in the cement road reconstruction plan.

"Prince Chu, I am the owner of the butcher shop near Dongshi. I came here to pay you a special visit. Please take care of me!" The butcher shop owner saluted respectfully.

"Oh? The butcher shop owner in Dongshi?" Chu Ze smiled and nodded: "Please tell me, what can I do?"

"Your Majesty, I kindly ask you to include the streets where several of our small vendors in the East City are located in the cement road reconstruction plan. At present, there are still dilapidated dirt roads there, which really hinders our business." The butcher shop owner said sincerely.

"So that's it!" Chu Ze suddenly realized: "Nowadays, the newly built cement road has convenient transportation, but the business in your old street cannot compare with it, so I hope that a section of cement road can also be built, right?"

"That's right!" The butcher shop owner nodded quickly and said, "Since the opening of Xishi New Road, our passenger flow has dropped sharply, and our business has gone from bad to worse. If we don't rebuild the road, I'm afraid we won't be able to maintain it!"

"Okay, I understand your difficulty." Chu Ze said with a smile: "Since it is for the sake of the people, I will send people over as soon as possible to check the actual situation. If conditions permit, your street will also be included in the new one. The planned renovation plan will allow you to enjoy the benefits of cement roads as soon as possible.”

"Thank you so much, Your Majesty, for understanding everything!" The butcher shop owner knelt down excitedly and thanked him.

"Okay, I'm just trying my best to resolve the people's problems." Chu Ze waved his hand kindly and said: "The support of the people is the motivation for me to continue moving forward, and your happiness is my greatest happiness."

"Your Majesty is such a wise king!" the butcher shop owner sighed sincerely.

"By the way, building new roads requires certain material support." Chu Ze said with a smile: "Can your merchants in East City provide some materials for road construction?"

"No problem!" The butcher shop owner nodded quickly: "We vendors will definitely help with road construction, and we can also do our best!"

"Very good! With the common people's participation, the preparation of the new road will go more smoothly." Chu Ze praised with a smile.

"I'm so grateful to you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" The butcher shop owner thanked him again and left happily.

Watching him leave, Chu Ze felt a sense of relief in his heart.

Yes, I will try my best to solve the sufferings of any common people, because their happiness is my happiness.

Building roads is just the beginning, there is more to do in the future.

As long as I have good intentions, the people will definitely support me!

One day, Chu Ze and Zhao Si were walking on the newly built cement avenue, admiring the wide and smooth new road.

"Your Majesty, the cement roads you personally presided over have been basically completed, which has greatly improved people's travel." Zhao Si said with a smile: "Seeing the joy on the people's faces, part of your wish has come true!"

"Yes, the happiness of the people is my happiness." Chu Ze said with a smile: "The road conditions in some places can be further improved, and we cannot stop here."

"Exactly!" Zhao Si nodded heavily and said, "Your foresight, Your Majesty, makes the future of Ming Dynasty more hopeful!"

"Come, let's go around and see how the people respond to the new road." Chu Ze greeted.

So the two strolled to the door of a noodle shop and saw the owner enthusiastically soliciting customers at the door.

"Oh, isn't this our Prince Chu!" The noodle shop owner came forward with a smile on his face and said, "You came here personally to check on the public sentiment. You are really too caring!" "Is the noodle shop still in business?" Chu Ze said with a smile. ask.

"Thanks to the new road built by the prince, my business has skyrocketed recently, and customers come in like a cloud every day!" The boss said happily: "You know, life in my shabby little shop was actually very difficult in the past. The residents can barely sustain themselves with their daily consumption. Now that there are spacious concrete avenues, outsiders are also coming in to spend money, and the business is booming.”

"Haha, since business is booming, you should offer more good noodles to the people!" Chu Ze joked with a smile.

"Absolutely! I have newly developed some signature noodles, and I will let you, Your Majesty, taste them first!" the boss smiled.

"Very good. The people are rich and I am happy too." Chu Ze nodded and asked, "Do you have any other ideas about this new road?"

"Hmm..." The noodle shop owner scratched his head, thought for a moment and said, "It would be perfect if the new road could continue to extend to more blocks. At present, the transportation in some remote areas is not convenient. I hope Wang Ye can improve it soon!" "

"You are right!" Chu Ze nodded in agreement: "Building new roads must be done step by step. Over time, I will definitely transform all streets into cement pavements!"

"Haha, with the prince in charge, our Ming Dynasty's future will be even better!" The boss clapped happily.

"Okay, you go about your business!" Chu Ze dismissed him with a smile.

"Take care, Prince Chu!" The boss smiled and waved goodbye.

Seeing his back, Chu Ze smiled slightly.

The thoughts of a small citizen are also worthy of my listening carefully, because their voices are the motivation for me to continue moving forward.

Building these cement roads is just the beginning, there is still a lot of work waiting for me to do.

As long as I have good intentions, the support of the people will make me invincible!
News that Chu Ze was promoting cement pavement in Fengyang quickly spread to nearby states and counties.

For a time, officials from all over the country came to Fengyang one after another, hoping to learn from Chu Ze and learn how to build such advanced roads locally.

In the early morning of that day, Du Cheng, the prefect of Taixing Prefecture, came to the Chuze Mansion and said respectfully to the envoy at the door: "I came here to pay a visit to Prince Chu on the orders of Du Cheng, the prefect of Taixing Prefecture. Please convey this to me."

The probe asked Du Cheng to wait for a moment, then went in and reported back.

Not long after, Chu Ze came out with a smile.

"Oh? Isn't this Magistrate Du? Please come in." Chu Ze smiled and asked Du Cheng to take a seat in the reception room. He poured hot tea for him personally and asked with a smile: "The Magistrate is here, what do you do for me?"

Du Cheng quickly stood up and returned the gift, saying: "I feel very sorry to have the prince welcome me in person. I came here for no other reason than because I heard that the prince has recently vigorously promoted cement pavement in Fengyang, which has won the love of the people and achieved great success." . So I came here to pay a visit to the prince and ask for advice on how to make and lay cement. "

After hearing this, Chu Ze laughed and said kindly: "So that's it! Since Governor Du has sincere intentions, I won't make it difficult for you. I will tell you the secrets of making cement. Please listen carefully."

After that, Chu Ze explained in detail the cement formula proportions, preparation methods, and pavement construction techniques. (End of chapter)
