Don't make trouble, let's build infrastructure!

Woo-!

There was a sound, white smoke billowed from the chimney, the axle turned, and the locomotive moved forward slowly.

"It's moving! It's moving!" The people from the Ministry of Industry jumped and shouted. Many of them didn't wear official robes, their hair was loose in a bun, and there were stains on their faces, but no one cared about these things at the moment. The hired craftsmen, yamen servants and servants in the yamen were all shocked by the scene before them, crying and laughing.

While the steam was rising, a stream of heat rose from the ground for no reason, swirling around the test site.

Many people present closed their eyes and sat down in place.The turbulent righteousness came with the joy of the successful development of the train, and poured into their altars.

In addition to the people on the test field, there was another wave of righteousness riding the wind and rushing towards the city.

Upstairs in Qifeng Building, the people from the household department want to drink three large jars of wine, planning to give them a hard meal when the people from the Ministry of Industry arrive.However, just after the wine was served, the bead curtain at the entrance of the hall moved without wind, and a surge of righteousness suddenly poured in, hitting the altars of some people present.

Tong Ran was the person with the highest level of righteousness present, and he was the first to respond.But even he didn't have time to say a word, and righteousness surged forward, scrambling to squeeze into his altar.

Tong Ran had no choice but to sit back in her seat, close her eyes and concentrate on refining.

"What's going on here?" an official from Honglu Temple asked.

Some people in the household department and the military department were instilled with a lot of righteousness, but there were still some people who were not affected or were only slightly affected. These people had seen the affected part, and Tong Ran, who was obviously surrounded by a huge righteousness, immediately With judgment.

"It's a steam train." An official from the Ministry of War said. He participated in the pre-production material preparation of the train. At this time, with the successful trial of the train, he got a little improvement in righteousness.

"What?" A Honglu Temple official who had the cheek to squeeze over asked blankly.

Another official from the Ministry of Households also suddenly realized, and replied: "It's what the Ministry of Industry is doing recently."

The people in Honglu Temple seemed to understand but half understood, but the people from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War tacitly stopped explaining.Although the matter of the steam train was made public in the three ministries of industry, military, and household, the other three ministries and the five temples and other government offices did not know about it. official way.

The people in the other yamen vaguely knew that the Ministry of Industry had recently moved, and that the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War were also helping. Although they didn't know what they were busy with, one thing was certain, Tong Ran, the big celebrity in front of His Majesty, was also involved in this matter. , which means that this matter is likely to be arranged by His Majesty himself.

It can attract such a huge righteousness, no wonder His Majesty has to summon the power of the three departments to do it.

Outside of Qifeng Tower, such a huge gathering of righteous energy also attracted a lot of attention, but because of Xiu Mu, most of them were in their own mansion, but if they wanted to communicate with people of higher rank in their own family, it was difficult to get accurate information. Not so fast yet.

In the yamen of the official department who worked overtime for Jingcha and Daji, Fu Lin's heart moved, he stopped what he had just explained, and looked up in the direction of the suburbs of Beijing amidst the doubts of the officials under him.

"My lord, what happened?" The officials of the Ministry of Officials knew that their ministers were able to find out some things they didn't know because of their high-level righteousness, so they asked.

Fu Lin looked into the distance for a moment, then closed his eyes and said, "Someone has been promoted."

"Promoted?"

"Is it a rank promotion?"

If it's just the Xuan rank or the Huang rank, their ministers can't pay attention to it, and the promotion that can attract his attention should at least be the lower rank of the earth rank.

"No." After a while, Fu Lin spit out another word, and then he said in a low voice, with a solemn expression: "Heavenly rank inferior."

The lowest grade!

Everyone in the official department was stunned, and then ecstasy emerged in their hearts.

Who is the lowest grade?

Now it is the time of the Beijing inspection, and all aspects of personnel have been transferred. This year's standards have suddenly become much stricter, resulting in the demoting of many high-ranking and unmotivated officials. lots of hair.

It's great to have a product under heaven now!

The vacant governor and governor can be chosen by him, and the minister of the Ministry of Industry has retired and returned to his hometown, so let him fill it!If you are not satisfied, let him replace Ren Jin.

However, in addition to the ecstasy, the officials caught sight of their Shangshu's face, and saw that his face was gloomy, and he was not at all happy to add another general to Dacheng.

How is this going?

The people in the official department couldn't help guessing.

However, Fu Lin had a lot of prestige, no one dared to ask.

On Qifeng Tower, Tong Ran felt as if a year had passed. He slowly opened his eyes, and in front of him were familiar faces, as well as chaotic tables and chairs.He closed his eyes, feeling as if there was a membrane between himself and the world, and the buzzing in his ears seemed to be separated by a layer of water mist.

The large amount of righteousness just now was more violent than any time he had experienced before, so that he had to stop everything else and concentrate on concentrating at the top level.

Fortunately, his grade is enough to withstand those righteousness.

When he was refining, he carefully distinguished that most of the huge righteousness came from the way of invention and creation. It should be that the steam locomotive was finally successfully manufactured and tried successfully.

No wonder the people from the Ministry of Industry said they would give him a big gift. This gift is really, really big.

In addition, a small part comes from the way of innovation and reform. It should be said that the emergence of trains will greatly change the current way of traveling, and it will also promote contemporary craftsmen to further master the application of steam engines.

Because he was the first to propose the idea of ​​a steam train, and participated in most of the links in the R&D and manufacturing, that's why he got such a huge righteousness in the end.

This righteousness not only allowed him to successfully advance to the lower rank of the heaven rank, but also made him rush to the eighth rank of the lower rank of the rank of heaven in one breath, and even soon be able to hit the middle rank of the rank of heaven.

This was something he didn't expect.

"Tong...Master Tong." An official of the Ministry of War asked, "Which rank have you been promoted?"

Tong Ran was still in the mist after being promoted, and Wu Li, Minister of the Ministry of War who was sitting at the main table, put down his wine glass and said: "Because it is the heavenly rank." He couldn't tell the specific paragraphs, but there is no doubt that Tong Ran has stepped onto the heavenly rank.

Tong Ran has slowly recovered from the state after being promoted, and nodded slowly upon hearing this.

Yan Liang, who was also sitting at the main table, had deep eyes, as if recalling something, and said, "If I remember correctly, you are the youngest person in the heavenly rank throughout the past and present."

Yan Liang's words were neither too fast nor too slow, and the volume was not too loud, but they were caught by everyone at the same time.

These people pondered slowly while slightly intoxicated by alcohol, and looked at each other, it seemed that what Master Yan said was not wrong.Throughout the past and present, there is no Tianjie younger than Tong Ran.

Tong Ran raised his hand and shook it.

It seems that there is only one step away from the top grade on the ground to the low grade under the sky, but the power condensed in his body has obviously been raised by a level, which is incomparable to the earth grade.

Now his righteousness can not only be condensed into substance, but he can even be turned into a sharp sword, causing irreparable harm to people.

Is this the heavenly rank?It really is extraordinary.

But at this moment, there were footsteps on the stairs leading to the upper floor, and the noise in the hall suddenly froze one after another. Chu Jun walked over in ordinary clothes accompanied by Su Jin.

There was a sound of moving, those who were sitting hurriedly stood up, and those who were drunk were woken up by their companions, and there was an untidy greeting in the hall: "Your Majesty, Wan An."

"No courtesy." Chu Jun said, walking in front of Tong Ran.

Based on his rank, it is easy to determine Tong Ran's current rank, and then he said: "The decree, Tong Qing was promoted to the heavenly rank at the age of eighteen. There is no precedent in ancient and modern times. He is the youngest person in history. Breaking the rules, he was granted the title of Marquis Hui, and bestowed a hundred acres of fertile land and a thousand taels of gold."

In fact, Chu Jun wanted to give more, but there was no other way. Recently, the national treasury was tight and couldn't afford more.But it doesn't matter, as well as letting him pick something from his little coffers later.

Tong Ran's first reaction when seeing Chu Jun was, why did you come down.

Realizing that there were officials all around him, he forcibly swallowed the unruly words, and said respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

According to the rule, only those who have military merits can get the title in Dacheng.Tong Ran was an exception because he did not have military merits.

But regardless of his meritorious deeds, or the title of the youngest person in the sky, it is not difficult to understand a title.The most thought-provoking of His Majesty's will is the title "Hui Hou".

Leaving aside the fact that the word Hui is rarely used, the title alone is very special.

Dacheng's royal title is one-character titles, princes are one-character titles, and county kings and below are two-character titles.As for titles, the most honorable title of a duke is the title of a duke of a certain country, which is roughly equal to one word, while for marquis and below, generally two words with good meanings are chosen.

The title given by His Majesty Jinkou Yuyan is already grace, and this title highlights that Tong Ran's marquis is above all other marquises, and even from some perspectives, he is more noble than the higher-ranking duke.

Someone looked at Wu Li, he was the only one with a title present.

The Wu family is one of the five great gentry families after the founding of the country. Wu Li inherited the title of Marquis of Changping, which is comparable to Tong Ran in rank and ordinary title.

In addition, the most powerful Fu family in the court today holds the title of Lord Qing, which was also owned and passed down when Dacheng founded the country.Dacheng does not implement the feudal system, so the name of the Duke is only for honor, and there is no corresponding fiefdom.

Fu Lin is currently in power in the Fu family, but Mr. Fu is still alive, so even though Fu Lin is old enough to know his destiny, he can only be called the Prince of Qing.

The prince of the state is comparable to the prince. In such a comparison, Tong Ran has jumped from a fifth-rank local official to one of the most powerful people in the Dacheng court.He really is a young talent!Many people sighed in their hearts.

After this decree came down, there was one more thing to celebrate at the scene.

It's a pity that His Majesty came in person, and no one dared to mention drinking again.As for Chu Jun, he was not so generous and left Tong Ran here to drink, and took him away directly.

When they left, the rest of them were still dreaming.

Wu Li woke up relatively quickly, he frowned, and suddenly remembered something.

Your Majesty just came down from upstairs.

Before Tong Ran left the table, he also went upstairs.

Could it be that His Majesty has always been there?

Wu Li poured himself another bowl of wine, he seemed to have discovered something serious.
