The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 273: Gan Ning meets the Medical Saint, Luo Yuan wants to start infrastructure construction
"Make clothes, make quilts in winter, chicken feather quilts, duck feather quilts are very warm, Jiangling now has quite a few people making this kind of quilt clothes." Gan Ning said contemptuously: "You know shit, you are just a boatman!"

"You can raise silkworms in the future. Anyway, the big warehouse under the General's Office will collect everything, even your manure."

"..."

Zhang's face twitched and he didn't know what to say. It felt weird.

Gan Ning took out a booklet and handed it to Zhang Da: "Memorize it, this is the rule!"

“I understand this”

I have been illiterate all my life, but now I can recognize words. Zhang Da thought about it and felt it was very strange.

Gan Ning had already noticed Zhang Zhongjing and his group a long time ago. It was obvious at first glance that these people were different from Zhang Da and the other common people.

Gan Ning's eyes were alert, even a little fierce.

Zhang Zhongjing was a man who had seen the world, and he was stunned. What a great general! He was polite to the common people, but turned vicious to him in the blink of an eye.

Gan Ning asked, "Who are you and what are you doing on the other side?"

Zhang Zhongjing said, "I am a businessman, doing business in medicinal materials, and I want to go to the other side to take a look."

Gan Ning saw that some of the other party were actually carrying boxes of medicinal herbs, and nodded slightly, saying, "Since you are a medicinal herb merchant, Jiangling welcomes you all to come. Our army needs a lot of medicinal herbs. I see that you have an extraordinary temperament. Do you know medical skills?"

"I understand a little bit!"

Gan Ning said with a smile: "Are you willing to come to Jiangling? I will tell you the benefits. My Lord Luo Yuan has established a medical bureau and is now recruiting doctors. You have medical skills, so let's not ask how good your medical skills are. If you come to Jiangling, I will give you a house, money, and an official position. You will be a medical officer in my army and the treatment will be generous. Are you tempted?"

Zhang Zhongjing shook his head: "I don't like these."

Damn it!
You don't want these?
Are you still human?
"Then what do you want?"

"I want ten thousand gold coins. I wonder if the general is willing to give it to me?"

Gan Ning glared: "You are so arrogant, asking for ten thousand gold. I am rich in Jiangling, and ten thousand gold is nothing. But what ability do you have to make me give you ten thousand gold? If it weren't for your extraordinary bearing, how could I give you face? Speak nicely, otherwise my knife is extremely sharp!"

Zhang Zhongjing laughed and said, "If you are not willing to give a mere ten thousand gold coins, how can you be sincere?"

"Are you worthy? If you were Hua Tuo, Dong Feng, Zhang Ji or the like, I would dare to give you 100,000 gold, not to mention 10,000 gold. But are you worthy? You are not worthy!" Gan Ning said, "I sincerely invite you to Jiangling, and give you an official position, land, cattle, horses, beauties and houses. You are just a doctor, and you are greedy. We don't want people like you!"

Bad character!

Gan Ning rolled his eyes. "My master once said that a doctor should be sincere and dedicated. I don't think you are good enough. You have a problem with your thinking and bad conduct. You must be a mediocre doctor. Just go to Jiangling and sell the herbs and leave!"

Zhang Zhongjing's mouth twitched. "Am I a bad person? Are you so polite?"

His disciples couldn't help themselves and actually said that the teacher was not a good person and that he was blind.

They immediately showed disdain for Gan Ning, but seeing that Gan Ning was carrying weapons and subordinates, Zhang Zhongjing and his disciples were smart enough not to offend Gan Ning.

After waiting for a long time, the people all followed him across the river.

Gan Ning finally took Zhang Zhongjing and others on board. He did not have a good impression of Zhang Zhongjing, so he said, "You guys should stand at the bow of the boat, and you are not allowed to enter the warehouse!"

Zhang Zhongjing's disciples were angry and said, "How can this be possible!"

"Haha, I have the final say over my boat. It's good enough that I can get you across the river. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

After Gan Ning finished speaking, he turned around and left. Zhang Zhongjing hurriedly comforted his disciples!

When the boat reached the middle, a large ship approached and brought a man with it.

"Wen Pin, are you still measuring the water?"

Wen Pin said, "It's almost finished." Wen Pin has been measuring the water depth on the Yangtze River for half a month. Winter is coming soon, and the water flow of the Yangtze River is much calmer. The purpose of measuring the water depth is to ensure the navigation route.

Second, Luo Yuan prepared water pattern data for future bridge construction.

There is no war in Jiangdong now, and the navy is very idle. They train fishing during the day, and generals like Wen Pin take their men out to work.

Wen Pin asked, "Why did my lord ask me to measure the water?"

“Repair the bridge!”

"What?" Wen Pin stared at Gan Ning.

Gan Ning laughed and said, "When I heard you say that, I was just as shocked as you are. This is a big river, right? Isn't it a joke to build a bridge?"

"What does the Lord think?"

"It still needs to be repaired. The Lord said that it can be repaired with the current means. Just build a few large pillars in the river. With cement, it can be used for more than ten years."

Crazy!
Looking at the surface of the Yangtze River that was as big as the sea, Wen Pin felt like he was dreaming. He didn't know whether he was still asleep or Luo Yuan was still asleep!

Building a bridge over the Yangtze River?

How to fix it?
Crazy!
The two men did not hide what they were saying from Zhang Zhongjing, and Zhang Zhongjing was dumbfounded. It was simply outrageous.

He really couldn't figure out how Luo Yuan planned to build a bridge over the Yangtze River.

In the military headquarters.

Xu Shu was also talking to Luo Yuan about the bridge.

"I still think it's unreliable. How can we repair it in such a vast river?"

"It can be repaired," Luo Yuan said with great confidence.

If they can build the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, why can’t they build a bridge across the Yangtze River?
Without the mechanical means of later generations, life would be impossible.

After I took Changsha, the transportation between Jiangling and the opposite side became a big problem, and this problem must be solved.

Luo Yuan said: "In a suitable location, we can build an island, then use cement to build large pillars, and lay huge logs on top as a bridge surface, which can accommodate troops, cattle and horses!"

Such a bridge does not need to consider the loads of trains and cars passing through it, and there is no need to consider the weight at all. It just needs to be usable.

Anyway, there is plenty of wood at this time, it is all virgin forest, and you can cut it at will.

He piled up small islands in the center of the river as a low foundation, and then used huge trees and iron chains to build a cable-stayed bridge. The water surface was only two or three hundred meters in front and behind, and the amount of work must have been huge, but he now had many civilians under his command.

They are all laborers and can be used to build bridges!

"Yuanzhi, Jiangling has too many people now. If we don't do a lot of earthworks, the people will be idle and have nothing to do, and sooner or later something will happen. If we have to do this, if the bridge can't be built in one year, then we can take two years. It doesn't matter if we take several years."

As long as the construction continues, the people will have something to do and the GDP will be boosted. As for whether the Yangtze River Bridge will be successful in the end, Luo Yuan doesn't care at all!
Now countless people join Jiangling every day. If we don’t give them something to do, public security will definitely be a problem!
Anyway, we can’t let the people sit idle, so let’s build infrastructure!
Build roads, build bridges, build everything that can be built.

Anyway, his finances were good, and porcelain was very profitable. Especially now that Jiangling was prosperous, people had some money in their hands, so their consumption increased.

The first thing that people who earned copper money thought of was to buy a pot for their home, ceramic would be enough, and then tableware and various furniture.

In particular, Jiangling built houses for the people. The houses were given to the people, but daily necessities such as pots, bowls, and pans were not given.

Luo Yuan's Military Headquarters now earns hundreds of gold coins a day from taxes, which cannot be described as a fortune.
