Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Chapter 958: Talk slowly, I am not in a hurry

In front of Pei Meng and Mr. Dou, two dark iron bars were laid on the gravel road, moving side by side, extending straight ahead, as if there was no end in sight.

The carriage wheels are specially made, with grooves on the wheels, which just fit on the smooth fine iron.

The carriages of the carriages are linked by hooks and locks, and only one horse can pull more than ten times the goods.

The carriage moved forward quickly along the two rails, pulled by the horses. Compared with ordinary carriages, the speed is probably three or four times faster.

Uncle, Mr. Dou, how do you feel after seeing the double-track road?

Mr. Dou sighed again and again, It's amazing. Who is such a genius to come up with such a method, which saves time and effort and can pull more goods, which is so convenient. If a double-track road can be built to the northwest, to the Grassland, why worry about logistical supplies not being delivered to the front line in time.

Mr. Dou's idea is very good! It's just that the cost of the double-track road is extremely high and the distance is too long. If you use the railway tracks for the whole journey, it is difficult to avoid people from stealing.

Iron is a valuable commodity.

Even if the court can afford the cost of laying railroad tracks, it cannot afford to be stolen and destroyed.

Is there a way to solve this problem? Mr. Dou asked curiously.

Qian Fu nodded, Wooden rails can be used. Craftsmen are trying and hope to succeed.

Mr. Dou exclaimed again and again, This is a great idea! It is fast and can transport a large amount of supplies at one time. As long as the horses can be replaced smoothly on the road, the carriage can run forward twelve hours a day without resting at all. This thing is very important for the army. That's great, it's very useful. Uncle, what do you think?

Pei Meng was greatly touched.

However, he kept a straight face and said nothing, It's good, but can it be promoted and used? Can it build a double-track road for thousands of miles to go straight to the depths of the prairie?

Qian Fufu smiled, After visiting Huanyu Iron and Steel, our family will take the two of you to ride a double-track carriage to experience it for yourself. Uncle, Mr. Dou, please get on the carriage.

He avoided answering again.

Pei Meng raised his eyebrows and sneered.

Da da da!

An extended and specially-made carriage slowly came to the three of them along the railroad tracks.

The interior decoration of the carriage is comfortable and luxurious, the space is spacious, and the roof is high enough that adults can walk freely in the carriage.

Two rows of seats with a bed.

If you are tired from sitting, you can lie down.

There is also a closet with wine and dishes in the closet.

The three sat down in the compartment.

Mr. Dou is very novel, like an old urchin, he has to experience everything.

He raised his wine glass, Sit in such a carriage and drive on the road, even if you don't get out of the carriage for three days and three nights, the old man will be happy! It would be even more beautiful if you add the whole pot.

so comfy!

Compared with the traditional carriage, it is more than ten times more comfortable.

No bumps, fast speed.

It's just a little stiff when turning.

Can the carriages communicate with each other? Mr. Dou asked curiously.

Qian Fu said: Huanyu Transportation is developing horse-drawn carriages that can communicate with each other, and the doors are closed and independent of each other. If you hurry up, Mr. Dou will be able to experience it for himself next year.

Mr. Dou cried out in comfort, It's so comfortable to ride a horse-drawn carriage. It's worth it for me to come to the capital this time! It's a pity that I won't be in the capital until next year, so I can't experience the new double-track carriage for myself. I feel very sorry.

Qian Fu said: There will always be opportunities.

Pei Meng stared at Qian Fu and made a surprise attack.

Uncle Ben followed my father-in-law to visit, and I have wasted several days. I don't know when His Majesty will summon Uncle Ben again?

Qian Fuzhu said: Uncle, don't worry! When it's time to meet, we will meet.

Pei Meng smiled coldly, his eyes full of sarcasm.

He sees through it all.

It's really hard for Liu Zhao to make such a big battle out of his power.

Huanyu transportation is full of various accessories and vehicles. In fact, there is not much to see through.

Moreover, Huanyu Transportation is not the end of the double-track road.

The double-track road continued to extend forward, but there was still no end in sight, and no one knew where it was going.

Pei Meng pointed to the railway track and asked, Where does it lead?

Qian Fufu said with a smile: If uncle and sir are interested, you might as well sit on it and see for yourself where this double-track road leads eventually.

Keep it up!

Pei Meng and Mr. Dou exchanged glances, and they boarded the carriage resolutely.

They want to see how long this double-track road has been laid, how many mountains have been opened, and how much land has been leveled.

The horses started to run, and the double-track carriage moved forward quickly along the rails.

The scenery outside the car window quickly passed by, like shadows.

It was obvious that the carriage slowed down as it climbed uphill.

Mr. Dou was cheerful, Eunuch Qian, please don't be impatient, let me tell you, where is the front?

Qian Fu said: Mr. Dou, don't worry, he will be there soon.

Can he not be in a hurry?

After visiting for so many days, I didn't mention a word about the business.

All the questions were dismissed perfunctorily by Qian Fu, who refused to confide a single word, and was very angry.

Mr. Dou was very helpless, and he couldn't force Qian Fu to submit, so he could only sulk himself.

The carriage climbed up the mountain, galloped for a certain distance, and slowly slowed down.

This is the end?

The carriage stopped, and the three of them walked out of the carriage one by one.

At the end of the double-track road is a luxurious villa hidden in the mountains.

Uncle, Mr. Dou, please come in! Your Majesty is waiting for you two inside.

Empress? Pei Meng asked eagerly.

Qian Fufu smiled and nodded, It's the empress.

Pei Meng took a deep breath. After wasting so many days, it was finally time for the main course.

The gate of the villa opened, and the palace servants bowed and stood on both sides of the gate.

The servant girl Ah Qing stood up and bowed slightly, Uncle, Mr. Dou, please follow this way!

Young lady lead the way! Mr. Dou said politely.

With a smile on her face, Ah Qing led the two of them through one corridor after another, and finally came to the flower hall.

The three-story flower hall and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows are unique and shocking.

Pei Meng and Mr. Dou were invited to the third floor.

From the first impression, the house is very spacious and bright!

Never seen such a bright house.

Liuli can be made into a transparent color, and it can be burned to such a large size. Mr. Dou was amazed again.

Uncle, Mr. Dou, please sit down!

Gu Jiu sat lazily on the soft bed, and greeted the two of them with a smile.

Meet the Empress!

Free gift!

Today, I am lucky to finally meet the empress.

Pei Meng and Mr. Dou each chose a single soft seat.

so comfortable!

Mr. Dou found that all objects related to daily life and travel are always very comfortable.

Is this also the style of the Empress Dowager?

Live in luxury!

And find ways to make life easier and more comfortable!

Mr. Dou observed secretly, wanting to confirm his guess.

Even though Pei Meng was sitting on the soft bed, his back was straight and straight, like a knife out of its sheath, which would be cut if he was not careful.

It's really not easy to see the empress! Pei Meng was expressionless and serious.

Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows and smiled, Uncle has visited the capital for a few days, what do you dare to think about?

Pei Meng said bluntly: The Northwest Army wants steel knives, cannons, and a sufficient number of vices. What price do they need to pay?

Uncle is so straightforward! But I can't answer this question for you for the time being.

Why?

As long as we can reach an agreement, the court will supply as many weapons as the Northwest Army wants. If we can't reach an agreement...

Gu Jiu smiled but wasn't smiling.

They couldn't agree, because of course they couldn't even touch the edge of the weapon.

Pei Meng was very straightforward, What do you want to talk about, Madam? I'm all ears!

Gu Jiu smiled, Drink tea, both of you. We have enough time today, we can talk slowly! If there is no result, the two of you can stay in the villa and continue talking tomorrow.

Mr. Dou signaled Pei Meng not to be impatient with his eyes.

He was the first to pick up the teacup and drink the tea, Good tea! But it's not any famous tea in my memory. I don't know where the tea leaves come from? I don't even know that there is a new kind of tea in the world.

Hahaha……

Gu Jiu laughed, Mr. Dou is really well versed in the tea ceremony, and he judged that this tea is not any famous tea in the world after just one sip. To tell you the truth, Mr. Dou, my palace bought several tea houses in the south a few years ago. It’s a new tea sent by the tea house half a month ago, and it hasn’t been named yet. Why don’t Mr. Dou give this tea a name, how about it?”

Mr. Dou shook his head again and again, It's better to ask His Majesty to give you a name for such a good tea.

Gu Jiu smiled and said, Mr. Dou doesn't have to be so cautious.

It should be, it should be. Mr. Dou was terrified.

Empress Gu and Emperor Liu Zhao have completely different conversation styles.

Emperor Liu Zhao, who has been in the military all year round, has a strong military color on his body. Based on Mr. Dou's understanding of soldiers, it is relatively easy to guess the core of Liu Zhao's conversation.

But facing Queen Gu, he was very passive.

The conversation was too scattered and unrestrained, and I don't know when a sentence suddenly came out.

When talking to Queen Gu, one must think quickly and divergently, and must also think about ten sentences for one sentence, and ten steps for one step.

Her style is too unique, if you distract yourself a little bit, you may miss the true meaning of the words, and you will be led by the nose in the end.

For example, is this tea really just a discussion of tea?

South!

Let's spread out, does it mean that the empress has been planning in the south for many years, and has already achieved results, and is ready to move the south?

Gu Jiu asked casually: I heard that the two of you have been visiting the capital for the past few days, what do you think? Can Mr. Dou share a thing or two?

Mr. Dou took another sip of tea.

Tea is good tea, but he is not in the mood to drink it.

His thoughts turned quickly, and then he openly flattered, This minister admires the empress so much!

Gu Jiu had a half-smile, Mr. Dou is flattering, should I let the situation go, or should I reprimand you?

Mr. Dou said solemnly: Weichen is not flattering, I really admire your empress. Just talking about double-track carriages is simply a genius idea. If it can be promoted, the efficiency of material transportation and personnel exchanges will be increased by three or four times. In the past Jiangnan, even by boat, takes about half a month. If a double-track road is built to lead to Jiangnan, it may take three to five days to reach Jiangnan. The distance between Jiangnan and the capital is shortened, which is conducive to the imperial court's control of Jiangnan, and it can also control Jiangnan's officialdom. It’s an earth-shaking rectification.”

Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows and smiled: Old fox!
