I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

So he blinked at Zhu Fugui, an innocent and curious little mung bean, and waited for the principal to give him advice.

"This one……"

Zhu Fugui pondered for a while, and said lightly: "Xiao Geng, please tell me your opinion first, young people should be more courageous!"

"This...principal, I'm saying something immature..."

Geng Junhua swallowed his saliva, he is not an idiot, since Long Live God deliberately used "Xiao Geng" instead of "Geng Aiqing", it means that it is not a test between the monarch and his ministers but a test between teachers and students.

This is Long Live God's special test of himself!

"In the previous plan given by the Ministry of Industry, the total mileage of this road is nearly 80 kilometers, the roadbed is 5 meters wide, the roadway is 4 meters wide, and the road surface is covered with cement."

"If you don't consider the re-mapping work, there is still hope that the construction of this road will be completed before the Spring Festival, but according to the current actual situation, I think that forcibly launching the horse will only slow down the construction progress of the Zhuchino Line of Defense and related forts."

"I saw the introduction on your PPT, principal. In addition to the roads of ordinary countries, there is also a road called the road of Tianzhu Kingdom... If we follow the standards of Tianzhu Kingdom, I think it will be completed within a month. ..."

Chapter 139

Economists have an old saying that third-rate countries sell products, second-rate countries produce technology, and first-rate countries set standards.

Obviously, India, a world-renowned power, the number one hegemon in South Asia, and the world's largest democracy, is a first-class country among first-class countries.

Believe it or not, according to the world’s highway mileage reported by the United Nations, India claims that its domestic highways are as many as 800 million kilometers, and this data ranks first in the world, far exceeding the total of 400-600 million kilometers in China, the United States and Europe. mileage.

As for why India can achieve such impressive infrastructure achievements, it is not due to the hard work of the Chinese people, nor the strong capital of the Americans, but the ingenuity and bold innovation of the great Indian people.

The rammed-earth highway, which is comparable to Qin Zhidao, has a simple charm, an unpretentious structure, and the most affordable construction cost. It shows the confidence and self-improvement of the Indian people in the surging tide of global industrialization roads.

These beautiful landscapes are not comparable to those dilapidated asphalt roads and cement roads in China and the United States...

Ok……

Zhu Fugui couldn't make it up anymore.

Indian roads are a fucking pile of shit!

The so-called national first-class roads, that is, the highways, can drive donkey carts, and the second- and third-class roads are even more cheating.

In short, what Geng Junhua proposed was to build a temporary dirt road based on the Indian Class III road standards.

After thinking about it again and again, Zhu Fugui succumbed to reality, approved this plan, and said that the hero sees the same thing, and I think so too.

Geng Junhua was praised by Principal Zhu and left full of fighting spirit.

Zhu Fugui couldn't help but sighed deeply.

I am brilliant and bright, how did I end up in a field where the military is on par with Yuan Datou, and the infrastructure is on par with the third brother?

How annoying!

However, considering that it is the 60s, if the third brother is brought over, Tu Mei Mie Ri Ping Duzhen Lu is no problem... right?

Zhu Fugui shook his head vigorously.

Love whoever you like, in short, if you can repair the roads that you can drive by before the end of December, you will have nothing to dissatisfy with.

Speaking of which, although thousands of laborers were abducted from the Vancouver area, the total population of Daming will exceed 12 when the piggies ship arrives in December, but all departments are still complaining about the lack of manpower.

In a sense, what is happening in Ming Dynasty at this moment is the opposite of what happened in later generations, which may be called "outward scrolling".

The serious external volume lies in the shortage of high-quality population.

In addition to the army with 2800 people, the navy with 800 people, and the Jinyiwei with 500 people, the logging factory occupies the largest population.

In later generations, coal was no longer worth much, so besides handing over the coal from the Plash mining area to the railway company, it was produced and sold by Daming itself. Timber was still the most important export product of Daming to earn foreign exchange for later generations.

Fortunately, the primeval forest of the Tenglong Mountains, which is larger than the Shennongjia forest area, is enough for Zhu Fugui to harm for a long time.

Moreover, since the sale of rare tree species would consume additional cultural value, the destruction of forest vegetation by the Daming Lumber Factory was not so frenzied.

At least currently equipped with more than 50 transport vehicles, and the number of male and female workers has reached more than 4000. The speed of forest destruction is still not faster than the recovery speed of natural forests.

In addition to these two major employments, there are also flour mills that are in operation and instrument and watch factories that are under planning.

In addition, the six ministries of the imperial court are also robbing people.

The engineering team of the Ministry of Industry, the Royal Gun Factory, the reservoir research team, and the diesel engine special research technical team all need a large number of unblinded young people.

The Royal Academy of Sciences, the Royal Hospital, Kindergartens under the Ministry of Rites, the primary and secondary schools under construction, and the Royal Art Troupe all need people with special skills.

For the time being, the Ministry of Officials is decided by Zhu Fugui with one word, and the structure has not yet been formed.

Ma Er of the Ministry of Finance is basically just a professional manager, far from the real power of the Minister of Finance.

The country's finances basically depend on the internal subsidies of the Lord Long Live, which is also arbitrarily determined by the Sacred Heart.

As for the criminal department, Rock's criminal arrest team currently only has a dozen arrests, basically playing the roles of traffic police and film police.

The major cases that really endanger social stability are still dealt with by Jin Yiwei.

In addition, there is a force hidden in the shadows, no one knows how many people it has, and no one knows how it works.

That is the Dongchang directly under Zhu Fugui.

Although the old eunuch Li now looks like a very kind old man weighing more than 200 catties.

But no one dared to underestimate the energy he possessed.

The so-called eunuchs have the most poisonous hearts, and the head of the Dongchang stall is even more poisonous.

In addition, there is Aunt Niu, the deputy admiral of the East Factory.

This person has a high prestige among the older generation of Yin people and has a large number of informants.

And as a relative of the emperor, Aunt Niu is also a ruthless person with all hands and eyes.

……

All the above are made up by the officials themselves.

In fact, Aunt Niu is indeed doing something to make use of the residual enthusiasm of middle-aged and elderly women who are keen on gossip, but the old eunuch Li is really just a happy fat house immersed in Coke and fried chicken.

Now it is the nineteenth century, and Zhu Fugui did not expect to rely on the ancient spy system to control the officials.

Of course, they can be in awe, which is a good thing.

However, the more than 200 years of history of the Ming Dynasty has proved that it is impossible for secret agents to govern the country, so Zhu Fugui is still planning to put his treasure on system construction.

It's just sad that, looking at the dynasties of various countries in ancient and modern China and foreign countries, it seems that there is no particularly successful case in eradicating corruption that Zhu Fugui can copy in its entirety.

The electoral system that is regarded as the standard, if it works well, can ensure a clearer grassroots level to a certain extent, but it is of no use to the top.

They have too many ways to turn corruption into legitimate political contributions.

However, if the electoral system operates incorrectly, such as the situation where Zhu Fugui's hometown elected village officials, it will be a disaster.

Zhu Fugui couldn't think of a good way for the time being, so he could only restrain himself as much as possible.

Fortunately, like most of the emerging regimes that make big cakes, Daming is currently still in good spirits.

Generally speaking, the current Ming Dynasty is and will be in a special state of imperial training + military control for a long time.

……

After the spring breeze reappeared in the simple container palace in Xinjin, Zhu Fugui and Yin Susu didn't get up until 09:30 the next morning.

After washing up, the two were drinking milk, while Lao Li was wearing an apron and frying poached eggs.

The guards brought new newspapers from Fengdu.

Reading newspapers during breakfast time is a good habit Zhu Fugui developed.

As for "Korean Manga Collection", Zhu Fugui has quit.

This thing is really not suitable for sharing between husband and wife, the massive army of tauren made Zhu Fugui suspicious for a while.

The newspaper today is still the classic New England Journal.

The headline this time was not the American Civil War, but the news that the British Whig Party had officially changed its name to the Liberal Party.

The New England Gazette, which seemed to be a pro-Whig paper, reviewed the history of the Whig Party in its articles and sang its praises.

And intentionally or unintentionally belittle the Tory Party, the old opponent of the Whig Party.

Zhu Fugui had never heard of the Whig Party or the Tory Party.

After searching the Internet and studying carefully, Zhu Fugui knew that the former was the later Liberal Party, and the latter was the later Conservative Party.

Now it is the Liberal Party, which has a good relationship with Queen Victoria, who is in power.

To be honest, Zhu Fugui still prefers their original names, Whig and Tory.

The word "Whig" is of Scottish origin and means "robber".

The word "Tory" is of Irish origin and means "outlaw".

Listen, how apt!

Zhu Fugui does not agree with the so-called "faithfulness and elegance" in the translation circle.

This kind of translation method that strives to beautify foreign works makes all the originally neutral or even derogatory Western words look grandiose, which is very embarrassing to the Chinese.

Therefore, Zhu Fugui decided that in the future, he would use "Liberal Bandit Party" and "Conservative Criminal Party" when translating for the British political parties.

How simple and straightforward, you can understand their proposition at a glance.

If possible, Zhu Fugui plans to change the names of the four obviously beautified countries of "Britain, America, Germany and France" in the future.

Not to mention using obvious derogatory terms like Luocha, Xiongnu, and Guifang, but at least use neutral words like Russia and Mongolia, right?

Of course, these are things for later, and it doesn't make sense for Daming to unilaterally change his name now.

Just like the Belarus of later generations desperately asked the Chinese to read them as Belarus, who would pay attention to them who are almost like air?

"Okay, Belarus!"

"Understood, San Maozi!"

"Ulla! Ulla! Ulla!"

Chapter 140 Morishita's Speech

Zhu Fugui continued to read this nineteenth-century newspaper.

Looking at the bizarre news above, I can feel that I am in the era of robbers far more than strolling in the territory of Daming.

puff-

Looking at it, Zhu Fugui suddenly spat out a mouthful of milk.

"Why are you so careless!" Yin Susu quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped Zhu Fugui's mouth.

"Don't blame me, Susu, look at this!"

Zhu Fugui pointed to a photo on the second page and said.

"Ah, aren't these the naval cadets? How did they get into the newspaper?" Yin Susu didn't understand English, so she didn't notice anything.

Zhu Fugui explained the whole story to her.

It turned out that the "Shogunate Apology Group" finally arrived in Washington, the capital of Midi, after more than a month's long journey.

As expected, Lincoln was very happy to see the English credentials written by Zhu Fugui himself.

At this time, he was at the peak of being criticized by domestic public opinion because of his unfavorable war.

Lincoln specially held a high-level press conference on the lawn outside the White House to introduce his Japanese friends to the world.

Obtaining the support of a big country in the Far East (Japan has a population of 3000 million at this time, which is comparable to the United States), regardless of whether that country pulls across or not, is a major political plus item.

At the press conference, Lincoln read aloud a letter from his close friend, General Napoleon "Yokyo Tokugawa" of the Far East.

Lincoln, of course, abridged the letter as necessary.

After all, there is a very long section in it, which is all about "Tokugawa Yoshiki" crazily inciting the US government to land in Kyoto and kill the emperor.

This kind of request is really whimsical, and of course Lincoln would not read it out.

What he mainly read was "Tokugawa Yoshiki"'s self-report how he admired American culture and how he admired the two greatest leaders in American history——

One is George Washington, the father of the nation, and the other is naturally His Excellency Lincoln, who is as talented as George Washington.

In addition to flattering flattery, "Tokugawa Yoshiki" did not pay lip service.
