Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

Chapter 133 Unexpected surprise
Along the way, the atmosphere on the train was harmonious.

During this period, we passed several sites, eating and drinking when we should.

The whole journey was almost ridiculously easy.

Zhu Biao and the others were usually fed up with the bumpy ride of the carriage, but now this journey was simply enjoyable for them.

When the sun sets.

Suddenly the sound of horns was heard in the distance ahead.

This sound is no stranger to them now. After all, they have heard it several times along the way. It is the sound of a train arriving at the station.

The sound of galloping horses' hooves gradually slowed down.

The train also began to slow down slowly.

"Huh? Where are you, brother." Zhu Xi, who had just sobered up, rubbed his eyes and didn't even pay attention to the address for a while.He had been on the train, drank a few bottles of wine, and fell asleep quickly. Only then did he hear the loud horn horn and the train slowing down, which woke him up.

"We're in the capital."

Zhu Biao's voice rang in his ears. Zhu Xiang raised his eyes and glanced out of the train window, only to see a huge flag fluttering in the wind, with the two characters "京城" written on it.

Zhu Ping's whole body trembled, and he woke up immediately. If his father knew that he was drunk, that would be all right!

He quickly patted his face and straightened his clothes.

Finally arrived.

Zhu Biao and the others all got off the carriage.

Then a group of workers came out of the station and began to unload the goods in the next few carriages.

"How long did it take?"

After getting off the train, Zhu Biao couldn't help but look back at the train behind him and admired it.

"The road from Yangzhou to the capital is [-] miles, but now it doesn't even take a day. If this track can really be laid to all parts of the country, then thousands of miles away, it can be reached day and night. What a prosperous era it will be."

Yang Xian said: "If you want to lay the tracks across the country, I'm afraid it won't be completed in a short time. Trains, tracks, stations, all aspects must be considered in place, and the manpower, material and financial resources required will be astronomical. . At present, the Ming Dynasty’s treasury may not be able to afford it. The reason why the Beijing-Yangzhou rail train can be built so quickly is that, in addition to the strong support of the court, a large amount of Yangzhou’s financial and material resources have been used. I am afraid that it will not be able to expand more for a while. .”

After listening to Yang Xian's words, Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He knew that Yang Xian's "strong support from the court" was to give him face. Does the court support it? Yes.

But it's more about policy.

In fact, this Beijing-Yangzhou train track is almost entirely borne by Yangzhou’s finances.

"I want to return to the palace to report the specific situation of this rail train to my father. Do you want Yang Qing to come with me?" Zhu Biao said.

Yang Xian said: "After all, I am a local official. If there is no decree, it is better not to enter Beijing casually. The rules cannot be broken."

"I won't leave the station. I will go back to Yangzhou later. You can't live without me in Yangzhou."

Zhu Biao nodded and said solemnly: "It is the great fortune of the Ming Dynasty to have Yang Qing here."

Outside the Beijing Station, there were already official guards waiting here.

After Yang Xian said goodbye to everyone one by one, he got on the return train alone.

The moment he got on the train, Yang Xian discovered something through the system that surprised him.

This rail train actually counts as his territory!
This sudden surprise was really too big.

This system determines that there is really something.

Because of the crowd, he had never dared to show his emotions for fear of being noticed by someone interested.It wasn't until this moment, when he was sitting alone on the return train, that he suddenly started laughing.

Although even if an interested person discovers that Yang Xian is emotionally abnormal, he will probably have no clue. After all, outsiders don't know that he has such a system.

Royal Palace.

Kunning Palace.

"Didn't you use the dinner?" Queen Ma asked, sitting far away, picking up the soles of her shoes.

She didn't look up.And the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Comrade Lao Zhu, was sitting at the dining table at the moment, eating rice porridge in big mouthfuls.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook the hand holding the chopsticks, swallowed another big mouthful of rice porridge, and then replied: "I just like to drink the porridge you make."

"Okay, I'm full."

"Why, are you worried these days?" Queen Ma asked concernedly.

"It's not a big deal." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said. "It's just that some guys are secretly doing some tricks underneath, do you really think that I, Zhu Yuanzhang, can't lift a knife?"

When he said this, Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous aura was unusually heavy.

Only Queen Ma could sit beside him calmly without changing her expression.

"His Royal Highness is here."

At this time, the chamberlain came to report.

"Let the prince come in directly." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Biao walked into the room and saw Zhu Yuanzhang drinking porridge, and asked the same question as Queen Ma.

Like a mother, like a son.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "It's all trivial matters. I'm not old enough yet and it's your turn to worry about it."

"By the way, didn't you go to Yangzhou today to attend the departure ceremony of Yang Xian's rail train? Why did you delay your trip?" Zhu Yuanzhang put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, wiped his mouth casually with his sleeves, and asked.

"My son has returned from Yangzhou." Zhu Biao said with a smile.

"what?!"

"Is this rail train really that fast?!"

This time it was Zhu Yuanzhang's turn to be shocked.

After listening carefully to Zhu Biao's report, Zhu Yuanzhang praised: "This Yang Xian is really surprising every time."

Then he asked a question that Zhu Biao also asked at that time.

Sure enough, what kind of cub is what kind of father.

Zhu Biao repeated what Yang Xian said to him at that time.

"It's because the treasury has no money again."

But in this case, there are still moths down there, eating away at Ming's property.

How could this make Zhu Yuanzhang not grit his teeth with hatred?

Tax reform must be thoroughly implemented.

Zhu Yuanzhang secretly made up his mind.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought carefully for a moment and said: "There is no need to rush to lay the tracks all over the country. We can choose a few important transportation points and believe in the laying. This matter will be left to you and Yang Xian, the boss, and the three Tiande people." Let’s discuss it together. In the current situation, military priority is given, followed by people’s livelihood and economy.”

"The national treasury is poor now, but it is not completely without money. And it won't be long before there will be money soon."

"I understand, father." Zhu Biao said.

"I've been riding for a whole day. I haven't had dinner yet. Let's sit down and eat the porridge made by your mother herself." After discussing the business, Zhu Yuanzhang continued to cook.

Although Zhu Biao had something to eat at the stops along the way.

But he still responded with a smile.

A servant prepared the steaming rice porridge and brought it to Zhu Biao.

He picked up the rice porridge and started eating it too.

A family of three enjoying themselves.
