Chapter 665

The emperor frowned slightly, and came again.Fu Wang mentioned before that the project was handed over to Jin Rong. He thought the project cost was much lower, and the job was not fat enough, right?
"Rail transportation is a big project, not a journey of tens of miles. Jin Rong has never done construction work, so I'm afraid he doesn't have the experience to undertake such a large project."

King Fu also seemed to feel that something was wrong. After thinking for a while, he said, "What Emperor Father said is, otherwise, the construction companies of Sixth Brother and Qi's family can only lay the tracks, and the tracks, sleepers and various auxiliary parts will be provided by the Ministry of Industry. We just need to get the materials according to the length of the distance, and assemble and lay the track.”

The emperor looked at Fu Wang again, and all the materials were made into finished products and delivered directly to the laying site. Then, the laying work was very simple, and there was no chance to reach out in the project.The production of rails, sleepers and spare parts, plus anti-corrosion treatment, requires multiple processes, so it is easy to exploit loopholes.

The track materials used in this kind of large-scale project, I am afraid that only the organizational ability of the Ministry of Industry can make it.The problem is that although Fu Wang is very selfish, this proposal is not bad.

The emperor's face was gloomy, but he asked King Yu to come in.

Jin Rong came into the imperial study, and after seeing the emperor, he heard from the emperor that the task of laying the wooden track should be handed over to him, and it was only necessary to assemble and lay the formed track and various materials, nothing else Do not care.

Then, the emperor explained the reasons why he should be appointed to the job instead.

Jin Rong didn't agree immediately, but only looked at Fu Wang and Wang Xian several times carefully, and finally responded, "Oh, my son, go back and find someone to discuss."

Hearing this response, the emperor couldn't help frowning, "What do you mean looking for someone to discuss? This matter is left to you. You make a plan first. After the year, you will go to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households to contact materials and civil affairs. Make sure that next year Start working as planned."

Jin Rong glanced at King Fu again, and said, "Yes, my son, don't you agree? The emperor should urge the second brother and the seventh brother to prepare the labor and materials properly. Those are the big ones, especially those who lay the track. It requires a lot of craftsmen and multiple processes, which is very troublesome."

Fu Wang's face darkened, he turned his eyes away, and pretended not to hear Jin Rong's words.

The emperor felt a little guilty when he saw Jin Rong's complexion.The sixth child did not contribute much to the imperial court, but he did not extend his hand to covet the imperial court's money.This is the first time to get a practical errand, it is a thankless job, it is hard for him to not shirk.

…………

The Qi family had given an errand to the imperial court, so they arranged for their subordinates to stop working. The Guangsha Construction in the north of the city had already closed its doors, and it was inconvenient for An Guogong's mansion to go there.

Therefore, Jin Rong and Jiang Yifan could only come to Qi's house to discuss matters.

There was no need to avoid people, the servants of the Qi family served the tea and the brazier, during which Hongzhi and Shi Yu also helped.All of a sudden, the originally deserted living room immediately became lively.

Jin Rong told Qi Younian the intention of coming, and then said: "The old man thinks whether this project can be taken over?"

Jin Rong did not expect that the emperor would entrust him with the task of laying the track.If you insist on rejecting it now, you can think about it.

However, at first, Jin Rong didn't want to upset the emperor.One more thing, Qijia Construction may not be able to get a big job next year. It is not bad to finish this big project first. The construction company that has cooperated with the government can also be regarded as having a foundation in the construction industry in the capital.

As for whether the Qi family can do it, Jin Rong just asked politely.In fact, this kind of worry is completely out of Jin Rong's consideration.

Although Qi Younian is old, he is really a character, but his fortune was not good in his early years, and he has no place to display his abilities.Moreover, in Jin Rong's view, the Qi family still has Ye Xinyan, Qi Younian and Ye Xinyan, there is probably no project that the Qi family cannot complete.

Qi Younian pondered for a while, and said: "I can only lead the work. It doesn't matter how big the project is. But, do you two know that Aqiao will not work at Qi's family next year? If the construction site is too far away from the capital, I'm afraid Leafs can't always look at the project."

Although Qi Younian thought he could do this project, he had to ask clearly.He is old after all, if the prince is worried about this, and knowing that the Qi family construction company has lost Wang Qiao, and Ye Zi can't take care of him all the time, is the prince worried?
Jin Rong smiled and said: "This year is not far away. This time, the track from Jinzhou to Ezhou will be built. The half of Jinzhou will be built this year, and the remaining half will be built next year. I think the place is okay. This year, the old man and Ye Zi will work harder. Bring it out by hand. If the project is still handed over to me next year, the old man can just send his subordinates to do the work, and the few officials in my house can supervise the whole process."

Qi Younian said: "As long as the lord can trust the little old man, the little old man will not disappoint the lord, just leave it to me. What's more, our family has Ye Zi to assist, so the lord doesn't have to worry."

As Qi Younian spoke, he asked Jin Rong again: "So, the lord knows that Aqiao is going back to his hometown?"

Jin Rong replied vaguely: "I know a little bit."

Jiang Yifan asked with a smile, "Guangsha Construction has stopped working, right? I don't know if Aqiao and Aunt Wang have said, when will we leave?"

Qi Younian took a look at both Jin Rong and Jiang Yifan. They knew that Wang Qiao was at home, and when they discussed with him about the construction company, they didn't see Wang Qiao, who was the chief steward of the Qi family. Without even asking.You know, the two of them are very familiar with Wang Qiao.

Even if Jiang Yifan knew that Wang Qiao was planning to go back to his hometown, he didn't know much and wasn't sure. At least he didn't know that Mrs. Zhao was sick from worry because he listened to other people's words outside.
Qi Younian looked at the smiling Jiang Yifan, and was even more uncertain what was going on with them, so he only answered Jiang Yifan's question: "Aqiao originally planned to leave on the tenth day of the first lunar month, but Mrs. I invited a doctor and prescribed a few doses of medicine. Let’s see what happens, if you feel better after the next year, then go as planned. If you don’t feel better, stay longer.”

Jiang Yifan didn't ask why he felt uncomfortable, just nodded and said: "Yes, although the capital city and Hezhou are not as far away as Yuyuan County, they are not close either. Aunt Wang's family is old and she must be It’s better to go on the road when you’re comfortable. It’s best if you can stay longer, and wait until Mr. Zhou’s family comes to the capital and explain the matter clearly to the Zhou family.”

Jin Rong also looked indifferent, nodding casually in agreement.

Qi Younian always felt that something was wrong.The Zhao family made troubles, forcing Wang Qiao to give up his career and go back to his hometown to dawdle.Jiang Yifan's behavior that day was very strange. Not only did he not do much to keep him, but he also encouraged Wang Qiao to immediately say that he would not work at the Qi family.

The same is true for Jin Rong, he has always been very optimistic about Wang Qiao, and even wanted to arrange Wang Qiao to be a small official in the Ministry of Industry.But at this time, he didn't ask a single question, as if Wang Qiao was a complete stranger.

These two have always had a good relationship with Wang Qiao, and this attitude is completely out of their style.

　I didn't make it to the third watch, so I will make it up at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning.
