Chapter 201: The Gentleman is Frank


Regarding road construction this time, Luo Yong originally planned to use the same methods they had used in various villages in Shizhou.

But when they actually arrived here and showed their identities and explained their intentions, many local big families sent money, silk and food over.

Then Luo Yong took advantage of the situation and changed his plan and used the money, silk and food to work with them.

The living people are paid to make food and work.

In this way, the big families are responsible for providing money, and the common people are responsible for contributing.

Luo Yong and others only need to play the role of an organization and provide some technical support.

Luo Yong divided the people he brought with him into several teams.

Each team chose a place to build a cement workshop and was responsible for the construction of a section of road.

Whoever completes his task first will go to the front first.

The plan for the front has been determined.

At a good location, start the construction work of another section of the road.

In this way, the efficiency is relatively high.

It took Luo Yong almost a month to finally complete the first section of the road he was responsible for.

Because it takes a lot of effort to build a temporary cement workshop, and things like large stone mills used to crush cement are heavy and difficult to carry, so the distance between each of their cement workshops is not too close.

However, for the first section of the road, many of them, such as mud and stone mills, were pieced together or even improvised.

They also spent a lot of time preparing the tools.

When they build the second and third temporary cement workshops in the future, they can bring everything they can.

If they really can't, they can wait until they find a new place to find a way.

In this way, the speed will be slightly improved.

Some.

The local people in Suizhou are very enthusiastic about road construction.

As far as Luo Yong is responsible, the number of workers at most can be three to four hundred.

Some of these people work in cement workshops, and some are responsible for laying cement roads.

The speed is the fastest.

When it was fast, nearly three miles of road were paved in one day.

Their paving work is actually to lay a layer of cement on top of the original road.

As long as the cement is in place, there are enough manpower, and the weather is sunny, the actual operation is relatively fast.

When leaving the first temporary cement workshop, Luo Yong took away dozens of skilled workers from the local area.

A group of them pushed this cart and drove the donkey cart, and walked on the cement road they had built.

Every step they took, they couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in their hearts.

This was the cement road they had built together.

It was smooth and spacious, as if A link connects the villages and towns along the way.

When they walked out of the cement road they built themselves, there were roads built by several other teams in front of them.

Everywhere Luo Yong went, he had to go and say hello to them.

If he encounters places where supplies are scarce, Luo Yong will leave some cloth, silk, money and food for them from his own team.

"Enough is enough, enough is enough, you should keep some more for yourselves."

Seeing Luo Yong commanding his group of people, almost emptying the convoy of money and food, a disciple tried to dissuade him.

"Your master, how can I still be hungry?"

Luo Yong said with a smile: "If you guys can't use up all the flowers, you can bring them up later."

Of course Luo Yong couldn't be hungry, and no one could starve him when he was hungry.

That evening, they went to a village east of Suizhou Prefecture.

The villagers heard that Luo Sanlang was coming from Lishi, and not only took them in the village We stayed overnight and prepared a sumptuous banquet.

Big steamed chicken and big roasted lamb, the cooking techniques were not very particular, Luo Yong did not eat less.

The villagers were very happy when they saw that he ate a lot.

There was also a squire who took out money and silk from his home as a gift.

Luo Yonggong accepted it and took out a small notebook from his arms.

He made clear notes.

Since someone donated, when the road near this village is repaired, , it is always necessary to erect a merit monument.

On the second day, their group went to a temporary cement workshop nearby.

Luo Yong left the newly obtained money and silk there.

The few data in his small book also left the disciples here unchanged.

Made a copy.

Let’s talk about the previous one, the team that Luo Yong forced a lot of money, silk and food into.

After two days of busy work, they encountered another team that broke out from behind.

That team was also like Luo Yong, and he forced them to stay.

Good food.

A few days later, another team came from behind and left them with a pile of food and supplies.

Over and over again, after a few times, the people in this temporary cement workshop finally came to their senses: "Do you think they are too lazy to move things themselves?"

"In the future, the team that falls behind will become the last ones to move goods."

"It's okay.

After we finish building this section of the road, the next place will be at the front of the team.

With so many teams taking turns, we won't have to move things every time."

The captain of the team comforted everyone.

Everyone thought it was true, so they stopped worrying about it.

Anyway, after they finished repairing it, cement roads were built in many places ahead.

Just move it, and get a few more carts to push it.

Not too hard.

About seven or eight days later, this group of people finally finished repairing the section of road they were responsible for.

They happily loaded up the pile of things and pushed the cart to the temporary cement workshop in front of them, waiting to get there.

I’ll give up my picks from now on, but it turns out "Where are the people?"

Looking at an empty cement workshop, these people were dumbfounded.

"He left early yesterday morning."

The local fellow told them.

"quack" "know" The sun is shining brightly in the sky, men are walking on the ground, and debris on the cars is piled up in mountains.

"Brother, who did you say started this?"

a man asked.

"What do you think?"

the other man replied.

"Master, we can't."

When the master smiled and asked people to move things into their warehouse a few days ago, what he felt was obviously care and love.

"You'll get used to this kind of thing."

Another man patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Let's go faster, don't let those guys in front slip away," someone in the team shouted.

After a series of "Ouch" responses, the team moved a little faster than before.

As for Luo Yong and the others, they had already set up camp next to a village in the east of Dabin County.

The local people had known that they were coming for a long time and had leveled the site for them and prepared a lot of lime plaster waiting there.

As soon as Luo Yong and others arrived, they could immediately start mixing clay and bricks.

The earth kiln for burning cement was also repaired by the advance team in advance.

This location was also decided by the advance team.

The teams behind them responsible for the construction would be ready when they arrived.

Just keep going.

Nowadays, the news that Lishi Luo Sanlang is building a road on Guannai Road all the way to Liangzhou City on Longyou Road has spread in many places.

People from Guannai Road and Longyou Road naturally applauded, and people from other places mostly praised him.

But people from various places have different opinions on why Luo Sanlang wanted to build this road.

People in Lishi County generally believe that Luo Sanlang wanted to bring a running water to their local area, to the Chang'an City.

The noble men generally believed that he was seeking fame.

As for what His Majesty the Emperor thinks about this matter, it's really hard to say.

At least few people can figure out what he is thinking right now, and those who can really figure it out can't just tell what they know.

Tell others.

In fact, at the end of summer that year, what really concerned the emperor was not Luo Sanlang's road construction, but the emergence of two private colleges in Chang'an City.

There used to be no private colleges in Chang'an City, and the few higher education schools were all established by the state.

The emergence of this kind of private college now is not a very good thing from the perspective of the supreme ruler.

In this era, the relationship between students and teachers is natural and close.

As there are more and more private colleges like this, some knowledgeable and capable scholars are likely to teach a considerable number of outstanding students.

These Outstanding students then pass the imperial examination and enter the court.

Among them, they are a naturally close group.

The emperor was not happy at all to see such groups appearing in the court.

If these groups were strong enough, they could even shake the imperial power.

Could it be said that what he will face from now on is not only the original clan group, but also an emerging force?

It is absolutely impossible to abolish the imperial examination, that is, to stop eating because of choking, unless he wants to watch those few families become powerful and eventually control the entire country.

Besides, although the current imperial examination is not of great practical significance to ordinary people, it is still a hope.

Who can endure such a small hope being extinguished every life.

It is not advisable to directly ban these two private colleges.

Since these two colleges do not restrict the enrollment of children from ordinary families, they are now very popular among the people.

In fact, whether it was Rishi Luo Sanlang building roads in Guannai Road or someone building an academy in Chang'an City, neither of these two things can be called a bad thing, depending on the perspective from which the person looks at the problem.

From a good perspective, this is a manifestation of the prosperity of the country.

Everyone is working hard and has a sense of responsibility.

Whether it is road construction or culture and education, they are developing in a positive direction.

If this trend continues, this country will inevitably will become stronger and more prosperous.

Looking at it from a bad perspective, each of these people is so active and trying to gain popularity for themselves.

Will he, the emperor, be squeezed out by them and lose his sense of existence in the future?

What the emperor thought and thought, whether he was more defensive or more happy to see the outcome, was unknown to outsiders.

In the afternoon of that day, the emperor summoned an official who was responsible for negotiating with Luo Yong and was later sent by him to supervise the construction of the road.

Some well-informed people in Chang'an City began to speculate that the emperor was beginning to pay attention to Shi Luo Sanlang's recent actions.

What kind of action was he planning to take?

Is it a compliment or a beating?

There were a lot of discussions and whispers outside the palace walls.

Inside the palace walls, the emperor sat leisurely on the wooden couch, smiling and saying to the officials who came to see him: "I heard people say that your house has been full of guests recently, and the mapo tofu in your house is now famous throughout Chang'an."

When the official heard this, his expression suddenly became serious, and he thought that it was a good thing that he didn't have the jar of bean paste for Bai Zuluo at that time.

Otherwise, he might have followed in the footsteps of Tang Jian.

"Reporting to your majesty, the bean paste used to make Mapo tofu was bought by me from Narasaburo for twenty cents."

The gentleman is magnanimous.

Since he bought the jar of bean paste with his own money, he Not afraid of the emperor's intervention.

"Oh."

His Majesty the Emperor nodded and asked again with a smile: "Is Mapo Tofu delicious?"
