Chapter 568 The old man has also got your stink
Chapter 577

Seeing Wang Yang sitting next to him with ghostly eyeballs, the idol of the University of Su was sipping tea leisurely, admiring Wang Yang's appearance, and looking forward to it, let's see what this guy can do .

"Jingzhao Mansion is the most important place in the Song Dynasty, so it is necessary to report to the court, right?" Wang Yang rolled his eyes for a long time before looking at Su Dongpo with a smile.

After seeing Su Dongpo nod his head, Wang Daguan spoke again. "The little nephew wants to build a concrete road connecting Gyeongju and Huanzhou. It seems that this matter does not need to be approved by the court?"

Su Dongpo couldn't help but be stunned, and after stroking his long beard and pondering for a while, he said: "Huanzhou and Qingzhou are matters between two states after all. Generally speaking, you need to ask the court for instructions."

"What if it's not an ordinary situation?" Wang Daguan's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood that there was something in Su Da's words.

"Of course, after the old man, the appeasement envoy of the Shaanxi Road Economic Strategy, makes the decision, he will inform the court. After all, Huanqing Road has just experienced a war, and the threat of war has not been completely eliminated. Right." Su Dongpo said with a very natural look.

"Thank you sir for your advice. My nephew knows what to do." Wang Yang couldn't help but be overjoyed and bowed deeply to Su Dongpo.Sure enough, the proverb that people above make things easier is really true.

"You boy... But having said that, the imperial street in Bianliang, Tokyo, is already very illustrative." Su Dongpo is naturally not an ignorant person.

Facing the strong, waterproof and durable cement imperial street in Bianliang, Tokyo, Su Dongpo once sighed with emotion, if the roads leading to various roads and states and counties in the Song Dynasty were so firm and smooth, what would be brought about? The convenience is absolutely immeasurable.

Even those old party bosses who have always been conservative are also aware that such a road will inevitably play an excellent role in promoting the development of the Song Dynasty. Therefore, the Ministry of Industry strongly requests to repair a road from Jingzhaofu to Tokyo Bian Liang's concrete straight was not just to stop that guy Wang Yang from doing big things to gain his reputation.

After all, if the bigwigs of the old party are all just looking at the world for their own benefit, how can the shrewd empress dowager tolerate them tossing up and down like this?

Su Dongpo stroked his long beard, and said deeply: "If such a smooth and strong concrete straight road can be laid between the frontier fortresses of the Great Song Dynasty, I believe that by then, the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty will not be easily affected by that. The impact of the climate, and it is difficult to advance and retreat.”

"What do you mean, sir?" Wang Yang couldn't help being taken aback, and he also keenly heard the meaning of the old driver's words. I'm afraid it's not just as simple as laying such a straight concrete road from Huanzhou to Gyeongju.

Su Dongpo chuckled, laughing like a cunning and cunning man. "Just allow your kid to know how to take advantage of the court's loopholes, and not allow the old man to take advantage of it?"

"There are more than 4 prisoners of war, which is equivalent to more than [-] slaves who don't need to pay wages. They only need to take care of food and tools. They can work all year round. With a mere two hundred miles from Huanzhou to Gyeongju, what do you think? How long can you keep them going?"

"My nephew has already calculated before coming. As long as the materials are sufficient, the cement straight road from Huanzhou to Gyeongju can be completed in at least [-] days and at most one month. It is still three feet wide, and the ditches on both sides are still open. Each has a four-foot walking path. The thickness of the road surface is a straight concrete road with a thickness of one foot and a half." Wang Yang replied confidently.

"Three feet wide..." Su Dongpo's eyes suddenly bulged and he looked at Wang Yang. "I asked you, do you think our Shaanxi Road taxes are too much to be used up? If it's three feet long, wouldn't it be as wide as this hall?"

"Sir, is this road very wide?" Wang Yang shrugged helplessly, walked to the center of the hall and started gesticulating. "The road has to be divided into left and right sides, one coming and one going, so that there is only a width of one foot and five feet on each side, and the width of the ox carts and carriages of my Song Dynasty is generally about four to five feet.

If there is an ox cart moving slowly in front, and if the horse cart wants to overtake the ox cart, there must be a certain space to go around. In this way, do you think it is still very wide? "

"Now the main road in Huanzhou City is as wide as three feet, but it is extremely congested all day long. If such a straight road is not built wider, accidents will easily happen."

"And the reason why the walking path is made is to prevent the people from competing with the horses and carts. In this way, the horses and carts on such a straight concrete road will not only fail to exert their speed, but will easily cause accidents." , causing civilian casualties..."

Wang Yang knew very well that the rural roads of later generations often had car accidents, because there were no sidewalks or sidewalks on both sides of the roads that were sufficient for pedestrians to walk on.

If there is, and the ditch with a width of [-] centimeters on both sides is used as a boundary, the probability of the carriage colliding with pedestrians has been reduced to an extremely low situation.

To a large extent, accidents have been prevented. What is important is that Wang Yang hopes that the road he built will set a standard for the concrete straight roads that will spread throughout the vast territory of the Song Dynasty in the future.

"So, I decided to name this kind of concrete straight road that is safe, can ensure drainage, and can also be used by people and vehicles..." Wang Yang raised his head, and he didn't finish speaking triumphantly.

Behind him, Su Dongpo rolled his eyes angrily and replied. "My name is Wonwoo Naomi, right?"

"Eh? As expected of Mr. Dongpo. The name he chose is almost the same as what my nephew thought. It's really wonderful..." Wang Yang immediately got all fired up and started flattering him. He was just trying to ridicule Wang Yang. The idol of the University of Su, who never took the emperor's year name seriously all day long, could only calmly think that this title was quite easy to pronounce.

"Okay, okay, let's just call it this way. Alas, I've caught on to your bad habits..." Su Dongpo could only roll his eyes and weakly acknowledge the naming right.

"However, now that the weather has entered winter, what are you going to do with the more than 4 prisoners of war? Didn't you once say that cement cannot be used after winter?"

"It doesn't matter. Taking advantage of this opportunity, they can dig the roadbed and level the ground first. In this way, they can start construction in the spring of next year." Wang Yang waved his hand disapprovingly.

"No matter what, after all, we can't let this group of guys eat in the territory of my Great Song Dynasty. These Xixia prisoners of war have been fighting against my Great Song Dynasty all year round, and their hands are stained with the blood of my Great Song soldiers and people. Why? Might it make them feel better?"

Su Dongpo also nodded. "Well, my nephew's words are very much in line with my wishes."

But at this time, Zhang Wei came hand in hand with two military leaders, Shi Dao and Zhe Kexing.The opened door curtain allowed a gust of cold wind to carry broken snow into the hall, and also brought news from further north.
