Chapter 775 Post-disaster reconstruction
Electricity was the chief culprit of the disaster. Once this statement was spread, it immediately caused a sensation.

According to Zhang Xianyong's words, the avenue he proved is the avenue that everyone can prove. What he can do, ordinary people can also do. Therefore, there is another trend of using electricity to light gunpowder and oil lamps.

Science is science. No matter who does science, science will never produce another result. This is the science of science. After people have personally verified this statement, Zhang Xianyong looks even more dazzling.

The discussion about that catastrophe gradually turned towards this possibility.

……

Zhang Ruitu was appointed by Yang Reform to deal with the catastrophe.The catastrophe has passed for so long, and it is imperative to report it to the emperor.

Zhang Ruitu talked a lot about the aftermath of the catastrophe.Yang Reform also listened carefully. In fact, many things were handled and decided by Yang Reform himself. He was even more clear about the process of this matter than Zhang Ruitu. Listening to Zhang Ruitu's report, he was naturally very "careful".

"So, as of today, the aftermath of the catastrophe has been almost done?" Yang Reform asked after listening to Zhang Ruitu's report.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yes, as of today, the resettlement of the catastrophe is almost the same. The injured have been treated, the homeless have been resettled, and the poor have been resettled..." Zhang Ruitu agreed.

"Not bad..." Yang Reform gave an evaluation. A disaster with more than [-] casualties occurred in the capital. Yang Reform is confident and still has some organizational and mobilization skills. , then there is no need for him to come out to hang around anymore. After working for so long, he finally heard a better news, and Yang Reform finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"...However, Your Majesty..." Zhang Ruitu hesitated.

"Oh, just tell me if you have anything to do with the Qing family..." Yang Reform said.For Zhang Ruitu, Yang Reform has always been unique.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, although the common people are all resettled and have houses to live in, I have to worry about this. Your Majesty, you can live in temples or Taoist temples for a while, but you can't live forever! Your Majesty, this collapse And the damaged houses should be rebuilt..." Zhang Ruitu said, speaking a little hesitantly, obviously there was something interesting in his words.

"Oh, what does the Qing family mean to rebuild houses for those affected by the disaster?" Yang Reform asked. Yang Reform also knew that after the earthquake, the state has always provided various support, such as reconstruction, various tax reliefs, etc. Seeing that there was something in Zhang Ruitu's words, Yang Reform asked casually.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yes, I have already counted, except for those who are well-off and capable of rebuilding their own houses, except for those who rely on relatives, except for those who are self-reliant, there are still more than a hundred poor families who are unable to rebuild their own houses. The people who give up, these people, the minister thinks that they must be ignored, didn’t your majesty say 'don’t abandon, don’t give up the house’, the minister thinks that they should not be ignored..." Zhang Ruitu said, if it was before, he would never have mentioned it to the emperor. This matter, because the emperor has no money, telling the emperor about this matter is to make the emperor angry, and to cause trouble to the emperor is to make himself uncomfortable, but the emperor is not short of money, and he has always been more forthright when he does things Well, the emperor was bold and willing to spend money, so he was bold and dared to think and say more things.It was impossible to repair houses for the people affected by the disaster in the past. Now, maybe the emperor is in a good mood and will repair them.

"Here, more than a hundred households? Does the Qing family mean to ask me to pay for the rebuilding of their houses?" Yang Reform understood Zhang Ruitu's meaning and said.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think this matter is feasible..." Zhang Ruitu said.

Yang Reform began to think about it. To be honest, according to Yang Reform's way of thinking, since such a catastrophe happened, it was natural for the government to pay for reconstruction.Besides, in the capital city, the popularity of banknotes is quite high. In the capital, there is absolutely no problem with the use of banknotes, which have largely replaced silver transactions.Therefore, Yang Reform has never been worried about spending money. After all, it is quite prudent to issue two banknotes for one reserve silver. Spending money has never been difficult for Yang Reform.

"It's no problem, I'll pay for it..." Yang Reform has already done the calculations. There are more than a hundred households, and the construction of a house is at most dozens of taels. If you count them together, 1 taels is the top. This kind of money It's not much, but it can get a good reputation. Of course, Yang Reform can't refuse.Ten million taels of immigration fees can be spent, and there is no reason why 1 taels of reconstruction fees cannot be spent.

"Your Majesty is holy, thank you on behalf of those homeless people!" Zhang Ruitu breathed a sigh of relief, his request for money was over, and this kind of thing really wasn't difficult, the emperor was really easy to talk to.The emperor was also willing to spend money.

"Your family is polite. You don't need to thank me for this. This is what I should do..." Yang Reform said, this time, after Zhang Xianyong proved that electric energy can ignite gunpowder, the impact of the catastrophe has been gradually eliminated. At the very least, I can make arrangements for my funeral. Although Fu Mingde is only a eunuch, but Yang Reform has never given up on those who work for him, especially those who are sincere and serious. Instead, he spent a lot of effort to protect him Yes, now the dust has almost settled, it's time to find a way for Fu Mingde.

Sending Zhang Ruitu away, Yang Reform thought for a while, and said, "Big companion, go and summon Fu Mingde..." Yang Reform said, Yang Reform decided to meet Fu Mingde and arrange a way out for Fu Mingde, and Fu Mingde could not be allowed to retreat. It was such a waste of money, just after finishing speaking, Yang Reform felt that something was wrong, and said again: "...No, forget it, let Fu Mingde come to see me by the Taiye Pond..." Yang Reform suddenly remembered Well, seeing Fu Mingde in the Qianqing Palace is indeed a little inappropriate, after all, Fu Mingde still has to bear the responsibility for the catastrophe, even if I want to excuse him, I can't be so unscrupulous.

"Slaves lead the edict!" Wang Chengen said immediately moved, although he was not talking about him, but the emperor treated eunuchs like them really well, he was definitely a good emperor with affection and intention.

Yang Reform set off, left Qianqing Palace, and went to Taiye Pool.

At this time, the Taiye Lake has long lost the lush and lush scenery in summer, and it looks a bit depressed. Although there is no scenery to speak of, the field of vision has indeed broadened a lot.

Yang Reform just found a place to rest when Fu Mingde arrived.

"My servant kowtowed to His Majesty, this servant deserves to die, this servant must die, this servant has caused trouble for His Majesty..." Fu Mingde immediately knelt down and kowtowed when he saw the emperor, he was already sobbing.These eunuchs rely entirely on the emperor's favor and trust, and their failure to gain power is a matter of the emperor's words. He committed such a big thing, and the emperor did not abandon him. He excused, even at the expense of letting Zhenren Zhang go out. All these things have already moved Fu Mingde, a eunuch, and he couldn't be more moved. A good emperor with affection and intentions is by no means empty words. It is worth it to be able to work hard for such a master.

"Get up and talk..." Yang Reform sighed. Originally, this person was in charge of the arsenal for him and did a good job, but he didn't expect this to happen, and it was indeed a big blow to him.I haven't seen Fu Mingde for some days, Fu Mingde's whole body has lost weight, he's already out of shape, and the injury on his forehead hasn't healed yet.

"Your Majesty is guilty. I have caused trouble for Your Majesty. You are not worthy of standing up to speak. Your Majesty, let your servant kneel and speak. Your Majesty, this servant is so ashamed!" Fu Mingde said in a crying voice.

"Get up, I believe that you are a serious and strict manager of this disaster. On this basis, I have spent so much energy to save you. If you are a perfunctory, not serious, and not strict manager , I will never save you if you are not up to what I have told you to do." Yang Reform gave Fu Mingde a relatively high evaluation.

"Thank you Your Majesty, if this servant can get His Majesty's words, even if it is death, it is worth it..." Fu Mingde said in tears.His complexion also began to turn rosy. After many days of suffering and waiting, the result finally came to fruition.

"Okay, get up." Yang Reform said again.

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Fu Mingde touched his tears and stood up in a crying voice.

"I will never forget what I said..." Yang Reform said.

After hearing the emperor's words, Fu Mingde cried even more violently, and the grievances he had suffered for many days disappeared all of a sudden.

"...However, although I have thought of many ways to excuse you, but such a big disaster always requires someone to take responsibility. I am afraid that you will be punished..." Yang Reform said, for Fu Ming De excused and saved him, but it wasn't unprincipled, nor was it unlimited.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this servant understands His Majesty's difficulties, and this servant will not embarrass Your Majesty. If His Majesty can praise you, this servant is willing to die..." Fu Mingde said immediately.What moved him was the emperor's love and care.

"It's not that I want you to die. If I want you to die, why would I waste so much energy? Is that the kind of person I am?" Yang Reformed.

"Your Majesty's lesson is that your servant will completely listen to your majesty, what your Majesty says, and your servant will never frown." Fu Mingde said immediately.

"Well, in this way, with such a big incident happening this time, you can't stay in the capital anymore, and the eunuch's position can't be kept. I have arranged a place for you, and that is Nanjing..." Yang Reform said, saying After that, look at Fu Mingde.

"Your Majesty, my servant is willing to go to Nanjing to guard the mausoleum. This is a blessing from my previous life..." Fu Mingde said immediately without any hesitation.If other people are sent to Nanjing to guard the mausoleum, it means that this person will not be seen by the emperor and has fallen out of favor. Nanjing is a place to provide for the elderly and send away the losers of the competition. Of course, that is for others, but for him, It's still a good place, at least there is a place for the elderly, so you don't have to worry about living outside the palace without food and clothing. Someone will collect the body after death. This is a good thing, of course, for him .

"...No, it's not going to Nanjing Shouling. The Nanjing shipyard is getting bigger and bigger and needs help. A branch shipyard has opened in Shanghai. Zheng Huaizhong is too busy alone. You go to help him. Learn from the beginning, if you study hard, how about taking care of the shipyard for me in the future?" Yang Reform said.Yang Huaizhong thought about this matter for a long time. Zheng Huaizhong has always wanted to go abroad, and he agreed to him, but the shipyard can't be left alone. The shipyard is an important place, and there must be someone who can trust it. People around Yang looked at him. If Yang Reform is said to be capable, Fu Mingde is really one. If he is said to be trustworthy, Fu Mingde is definitely one. Yang Reform will send Fu Mingde to the south. thought out.In the future, the territory of the Ming Dynasty will expand to the south, and the force and territory will pass, and the eunuch must follow suit, and the eunuch must also gradually move south. At this time, it is just right to send Fu Mingde there.

"...Your Majesty..." Fu Mingde knelt down on the ground while weeping. The emperor really had nothing to say about him. Not only did he not abandon him, but he found a way out for him. Where is this kind of emperor going? to find ah?Their identities are like ants, but the emperor never looked down on them.

Wang Chengen's eyes were also red, if the emperor treated Fu Mingde so well, he would naturally treat him better.

"Okay, don't cry. Before you go, you have one more thing to do." Yang Reform said.

"But according to His Majesty's orders, the servants will not frown even if they go through fire and water..." Fu Mingde said with tears all over his face.

"This time, Reverend Zhang has done a lot to save you, but Reverend Zhang himself has caused a lot of trouble. Reverend Zhang needs to prove that the electricity can ignite the gunpowder. This is relatively easy and has been verified. But, Reverend Zhang We also need to prepare ways to prevent this kind of thing from happening again. This kind of thing is related to the production of gunpowder. Zhang Zhenren is a Taoist priest, and he can't even enter the gunpowder factory. You have to pay back this favor. You have been in charge of the military for so long. You must know a lot more about the management and defense measures of these weapons and ammunition. Before you go to the south, manage these Experience and know-how, including the things that need to be paid attention to during the production and management of weapons and ammunition, I would like to list them one by one. Firstly, it is to repay Zhenren Zhang’s affection. Something similar happened..." Yang Reform said.

Yang Reform has always attached great importance to the summary of experience and the construction of the system. This time I met Fu Mingde, the main thing is to sum up the experience of weapons and ammunition production, build relevant systems, and move forward step by step.

"Your majesty is in command! Don't worry, your majesty will never let you down. I will sum up a complete experience and know-how..." Fu Mingde immediately said confidently. He really has a lot of knowledge about how to manage the production of arms. Seeing that the emperor was talking about this matter, he immediately agreed that he might not be able to do other things, but he was absolutely sure of this matter.The emperor was also right, he had to repay this favor, not only from Zhenren Zhang, but also from the emperor.

"Okay, then it's settled. You need to take good care of your body for two more days, and then start preparing. Based on the relevant experience summary, the more detailed the system construction, the better. I understand..." Yang Reformed.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I understand that I will not disappoint Your Majesty." Fu Mingde immediately said confidently.

After solving this matter, Yang Reform put aside one thing on his mind.

Yang Reform pointed to a scene in the distance and said, "Big companion, if I remember correctly, that place should be a two-story building built by me..." Yang Reform had noticed that place a long time ago, and now the leaves It was almost all fallen, bare, without the cover of leaves, the buildings that were originally hidden in the forest were easily found.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is exactly, that place is exactly His Majesty's house built with cement. It is very wonderful. Your Majesty, but do you want to see it?" Wang Chengen asked.

"Well, go and have a look..." Yang Reform had a whim, and decided to go and have a look immediately.

……

The team soon arrived in front of that special building, and Yang Reform had been observing this building.

This building was something Yang Reform used to test the possibility of building a house with cement when cement was first invented.This house is plastered inside and out, "tiles" are pasted on the walls, the windows are glass, and the walls are plastered.It can be said that this is a small rural western-style building in the 90s.

Yang Reform stepped down from the chariot, and only then did he formally look at the building.

Earlier, Zhang Ruitu told himself that to rebuild the houses of more than 100 disaster-stricken people, Yang Reform also approved the money.When Yang Reform saw this two-story small western-style building built with cement, he had other ideas in his mind. Could this rebuilding project for the victims be built in the style of this small western-style building? With more than 100 households, at least one residential area can be built. Sun Yuanhua wants to build a demonstration project of a dam, why can't he build a new style demonstration project built with cement?

In this way, you can take this opportunity to rebuild houses for the common people and launch your own cement buildings in a grand manner. If a trend of cement construction can be formed in the capital, then the sales of this cement will probably explode. I'm afraid the demand will skyrocket.

Thinking of the beauty, Yang Reform smiled unconsciously. It seems that this kind of small rural western-style mansion in the 90s of the [-]th century will probably appear in this Beijing city soon.

Although this catastrophe is a disaster, it is also an opportunity for many things. In the past, even if I wanted to do this kind of demonstration project, it was difficult and I had to find various excuses, but now I am rebuilding houses for the victims. One community can be built at one time to show the advantages of concrete buildings. This catastrophe has a bad side, but it also has a good side. The pros and cons are indeed two sides of the same coin.

Yang Reform began to circle around the small western-style building, turned around, and then went inside to look east and west.I kept planning in my heart how to build that demonstration community.

The more I look at Yang Reform, the more I feel that this is an interesting matter, and I must act immediately to deal with it.
