Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 438 Great Song Spectacle+1
Yanjing Mansion is full of construction sites one after another. The construction site without large trucks, cement trucks and mixers is extremely quiet.

Only the smell of woody fragrance spread faintly in the air, which was far from the extremely harsh construction site environment that Zhao Huan expected.

After all, there is no noise pollution, no air pollution and dust pollution. Zhao Huan has never seen Yanjing City, which is as blue as a sapphire.

The wind blows gently across the street, and Yujie is still built in the same style as Bianjing.

And this royal street is also the most expensive place in the entire Yanjing Mansion. The bricks on the masonry floor are all gold bricks from Suzhou.

And this kind of gold brick is smooth and delicate, and slightly golden yellow, and it sounds clanging when knocked, but it is very troublesome to fire, requiring at least more than 20 processes.

According to the report of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the entire Royal Street, including Zhao Huanxiu's palace, needs a total of 1000 million gold bricks to pave the floor.

And such a brick, transported from Suzhou to Yanjing City, needs a total of [-] yuan, seven hundred yuan in the Song Dynasty, that is to say, a brick.

Zhao Huan directly scolded Liu Chengqing, the servant of the household department, so bloody!

This is a waste of national and domestic money!Da Song is rich, but not so rich!

After Zhao Huan scolded Liu Chengqing all over his face, Chen Chong contributed the production process of the gold bricks in time, and it was considered that the matter was calmed down.

For this reason, Chen Chong left behind a reputation of long-sleeved dancing and exquisite appearance in the court hall.

This is not scolding Chen Chong, but Chen Chong's transformation from a person who is stupid in reading to a qualified politician.

After Zhao Huan received the formula from the Chen family, his heart ached for a while!
This brick is worth the price!

The cost of transporting a brick is really worth the same as the cost of damage!
But after excluding the damage and transportation costs, a gold brick is only two hundred dollars.

The Golden Brick Workshop outside Yanjing City was built by the Workers' Relief Supervisor, and the Gold Brick Workshop, which specializes in gold bricks, cost more than 300 million yuan to cover the Imperial Street.

And it cost 3000 million guan to pave the entire palace.

But the money, the labor relief supervisor earned back.

Because firing gold bricks is a monopoly job, after all, they are royal gold bricks, so it is a very famous name no matter what.Only the Su family in Suzhou and the Han family in Shandong are eligible for this production.

Sun Bo asked the built brick workshop to supply the newly built houses in Yanjing City at a price of 350 yuan per piece, which was the same as the supply price of Suzhou Su’s house, supplying all the houses under construction in Yanjing City, and made a lot of profits .

Of course, in order not to embarrass the slick Chen Chong, Sun Bo specially gave the Su family a profit of [-] yuan for each yuan.

A happy situation is Sun Bo's pursuit, and some wisdom has really existed since ancient times.

And Zhao Huan saw this Yanjing city full of gold bricks.

It's a pity that after the BRIC business earned back its capital, it began to fill in the holes in other urban constructions, and there were not many left.

Zhao Huan planned to bring some samples to Emperor Toba and Emperor Sutoku of Japan the next time a Japanese ship came, to try the samples and see if they could open up a new source of income.

Well, Zhao Huan didn't even have to think too much about pitting people, he just dug pits one after another, deep.

After he walked through the imperial street, he came to the courtiers to prevent Zhao Huan from going north. The most important reason was that he was worried that the officials would be wronged.

Yanjing Palace is too shabby.

In the entire Yanjing Palace, the largest expenditure was the floor tiles of 1 million yuan.

Everything else was in accordance with Zhao Huan's request, under the guideline of saving as much as possible. In the eyes of the courtiers, this palace was a bit dilapidated, not refined enough, and not enough to show the majesty of the royal family.

Zhao Huan always felt that this kind of thinking was wrong, Genyue Palace was built extremely beautifully, so could it be that Zhao Ji has royal majesty?
This big city created by myself can't help but create jobs, and it's stingy to use such messy extravagances as golden nanmu, gilded tiles, gilded window paper, mahogany palace utensils, etc. Does it have no royal majesty?

The Daqing Palace used by the Yanjing Dynasty, the glazed tiles are not pure bright red, but colorful, which is too nondescript in the emperor's specifications.

However, some people praised him for his magnificence. Even the tiles on most houses in Yanjing City are so colorful.

Zhao Huan didn't feel ashamed, on the contrary, Zhao Huan felt very majestic.

An emperor has brought dignity to the people, and even black can be boasted in colorful black.

The Central Plains Dynasty, which has never followed suit, is so real.If you do a good job, people will praise you.

Zhao Huan stepped into the Yanjing Palace through the Meridian Gate.

Zhao Ying pointed to the front and said: "Daqing Palace! It is eighteen rooms wide, five rooms deep, thirty feet long, ten feet wide, and eight feet high. The Danbi Terrace is about ten steps wide."

"Did you install the lightning rod I asked you to install?" Zhao Huan asked.

He is very concerned about this issue. Isn't the 24-meter-high building in this open place likely to be struck by lightning?

Zhao Huan didn't want to see a flash of lightning flashing by when he was going to court, and his Daqing Palace would disappear. Such a scene of people is really scary.

"That's inevitable, official." Zhao Ying nodded quickly.

Although I don't know what the reason is, but since the officials took out that strange fork and inserted it into the twin iron towers and the Daqing Palace in Bianjing, there really has been no thunder.

Zhao Huan nodded. This kind of palace fire can easily attract courtiers' comments. The principle of the lightning rod is not complicated. After Zhao Huan briefly described it, the effect of using it in the Daqing Palace of the Song Dynasty is extremely good.

He didn't want everyone to lose confidence because of some shitty court thunder.

Zhao Ying accompanied Zhao Huan and continued to walk forward and said: "Officials, according to Zhou etiquette, Zuozu, Youshe, facing the court, and Houshi, the Taimiao is on the left, the Sheji Altar is on the right, and the front of the palace is where the courtiers handle official business. The government offices of the three provinces, and the market behind the palace."

"Going further back is Long Live Mountain. It is a hillock formed by piled up soil after digging the moat. It has been built into a manor. It is not beautiful, but it is still pleasant. It is the highest place in Yanjing."

Zhao Huan's heart skipped a beat!This Longevity Mountain, why is it so chilling to hear?
"Zhao Ying, let me ask you, is there a crooked locust tree on Long Live Mountain?" Zhao Huan asked.

"Officials, I arrived at Yanjing one step earlier. On the top of Longevity Mountain, there are indeed a few crooked pagoda trees, but the twists and turns of trees are natural principles, official." Shen Cong added from the side.

He came to Yanjing early, deployed his own officials and cleaned up the garbage in the entire palace, and moved the royal supplies that the household department had prepared long ago into the palace. He was busy for nearly a month.

"Cut it down, the trees on Long Live Mountain can only grow straight!" Zhao Huan said.

This made Shen Cong a little baffled, why did the officials, who had never cared much about everything, suddenly compete with a few trees?
But he nodded and said yes, he can still let the gardener build it up and make the locust tree grow more neatly.

Zhao Huan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. If the battle goes wrong, have you even prepared the Emperor Killing Artifact, the Old Crooked Neck Tree?

Now he understands very well why Sun Bo sacrificed to the river god before building embankments, and he feels comforted!

"Official, are you tired from walking?" Zhu Lian carefully wiped the sweat from Zhao Huan's forehead.

The official family is still the same official family, except that she has visited her more often recently, there is nothing strange about it.

She was a little worried, whether the official's body could not take it anymore.

Zhao Huan waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

"Let's go." Zhao Huan smiled self-deprecatingly, this is Song Dynasty, not Ming Dynasty, just a crooked neck tree.

Zhao Huan walked up to the platform first, and saw the Wende Hall and the Yanfu Palace, which were used by the Chang Dynasty.

However, the Yanjing Palace is also a large construction site, and it will take at least a year before the main project of this city can be completed.

For example, the Sixth Bureau, Huanyiyuan and other places are still under construction.

The persuasion of the courtiers is justified. The imperial banquet with 36 dishes in the morning, [-] dishes at noon and [-] dishes in the evening will definitely not be held at the moment.

But Zhao Huan has long been used to Zhao Ying's small cafeteria, so it doesn't matter, I'm afraid Zhu Lian won't get used to it.

Zhao Huan was very satisfied with these not very exquisite, but uniquely flavorful re-engraved versions of the Forbidden City in the Song Dynasty.

"That's right, urging craftsmen to build."

"By the way, is the Confucian Temple and Wu Temple that I asked to build finished?" Zhao Huan said with a smile.

Zhao Ying said in embarrassment: "There is no Confucian Temple, but the Wu Temple has been built. Official."

"Cangjie, the chief priest of the official Confucian Temple, Guozijian and Taixue jointly opposed it. Up to now, the virtues of heaven and earth have crowned ancient and modern archways, Wanren palace walls, Lingxing gate, Panchi, Dacheng gate, Dacheng hall, Minglun hall, Zunjing The pavilion and other supporting facilities have been built, but the officiant cannot stand up."

"Oh?" Zhao Huan smiled meaningfully.

He does not set up Confucius as the main sacrifice, but it is not that he does not worship Confucius. He respects Confucius' various classics and life philosophies, which are bright pearls in the history of China. It illuminates the ideological field of the whole China.

But today's Confucianism overinterprets Confucius' remarks, and the whole Confucianism has long been different from Confucius' thought, and even runs counter to it in some places.

Confucianism slowly changed after it dominated Confucianism. Zhao Huan didn't want to break this situation all at once. The main conflict now is still the conflict with the Jin people.

Normal Confucian temples have everything, but Zhao Huan just added Cangjie on top of the two saints.These civil servants can't stand it anymore.

Big measures, pedantic.

"Wu Temple's main sacrifice is Wucheng King Jiang Taigong, no one objected." Zhao Huan asked.

Shen Cong said with a smile: "The Wu Temple has been built, but no generals have yet come to offer sacrifices. I don't know about it yet. Maybe I'm busy."

Zhao Huan burst out laughing, this is extremely subtle.

The main sacrifice of the Wu Temple is Jiang Taigong, the king of Wucheng, and Zhang Liang is the one who deserves it.

These are all the chief priests and companions of the martial arts temples in the past dynasties, and Zhao Huan has not changed the 62 priests and two temples that have been passed down since Zhao Kuangyin.

It's just that the Wu Temple in the Song Dynasty is slightly different from the Wu Temple in the Tang Dynasty. One of the ten philosophers erected in the Tang Dynasty, Bai Qi, the God of Killing, was reduced to 62 people in the two verandahs.

This was Zhao Kuangyin's personal preference. Bai Qi was removed from the seat of the ten philosophers, and Zhao Huan replaced Bai Qi to the top ten in the hall.

Zhao Kuangyin's reason is that Bai Qi's killing has already been surrendered, so it's not enough to use martial arts, so why enjoy it?

And Zhao Huan didn't intend to keep the Jinren captive, so he naturally raised Bai Qi back quietly.

No one knew about all this, because the warriors of the Song Dynasty were not as leisurely as the civil servants after all. They were busy fighting with the Jin people, how could they have time to care about this?
Zhao Huan walked towards the Wu Temple, the inscription on the loyal soul, the Zhaoxun Pavilion, which should have been added to the regulated building package of the Wu Temple.

　The wonder here is the Forbidden City.List of Wu Temples: Priest: Wucheng King Jiang Ziya.Sharing: Han Prince Shao Fu Zhang Liang.The Ten Philosophers: Guan Zhong, Sun Wu, Le Yi, Zhuge Liang, and Li Ji all went west; Tian Rangju, Bai Qi, Han Xin, Li Jing, and Guo Ziyi all went east.Fan Li fell to two verandas.The ten philosophers of the Wu Temple are almost all the ones who have been flawless in their achievements from Zhou to the founding of the Song Dynasty.They are all the same crazy characters as Grandpa Yue.
