The route that Li An said is exactly in line with Li Longji’s intentions, which makes Li Longji very happy. Of course, as long as there are people with strategic vision, they can see that Anxi and Shuofang are extremely important places, especially Anxi is very important to the Great Tang Empire. This area is a great channel for the Great Tang Empire to communicate with the outside world. It is also an area where the Great Tang Empire expands its influence. For the stability of the capital, Anxi must keep it.

This is also the reason why the Great Tang Empire has to spend a great deal of money to maintain this area of ​​Anxi, but it is very difficult to maintain this area because the road is too far away. It is very difficult to maintain 20000 soldiers and horses in Anxi. This is enough to raise 200,000 soldiers near the capital, which is why the Anxi army must be elite. It costs ten times the price. If you do not raise soldiers, what is the point?

Now that the rails and steam locomotives have been invented successfully, only the railway needs to be paved to Anxi. In the future, the materials of Imperial Court can be continuously transported to Anxi, thereby greatly reducing the loss of the road. Great Tang can also send more troops to Anxi. In order to strengthen Anxi ’s control even further, it will further expand its territory and capture further lands.

“Anxi, very good. I also mean this to the prime ministers. However, Anxi is ten thousand li away from the capital. Is the amount of engineering for laying this railroad track too large? Are the materials, manpower and financial resources sufficient? , Minister Li can have calculated. “

Li Longji is very eager to build a railway to Anxi, but he is not sure about the cost of this railway. After all, in addition to the length of the rails can be directly calculated, problems such as foundations, bridges, culverts, etc., can not be determined. .

“Your Majesty, the route has not yet been determined. It is not easy to calculate. You must determine the route before you can calculate. Also, if you feel that you can’t finish it in one breath, you can follow step 2 and lay a path The Yu Sect railway is connected to Shanzhou and Liangzhou, so the soldiers and horses in Longyou and Hexi can be more easily mobilized, and the remaining half can be laid later to reduce the pressure of one laying. “

Li An gives advice, after all, this staged victory is the most appropriate.

“Well, Minister Li thinks when to lay it.”

“Your Majesty, after the autumn harvest, the weather will turn cold. You can use this time to determine the route and reserve the rails. After spring ploughing in the next year, you will immediately collect labor and start laying rails.”

Li An is suggested.

“Okay, that ’s it. After the autumn harvest, immediately send 2 people to explore the rail line leading to Yu Sect Pass, and another person to explore the railway line leading to Zhongshoujiangcheng. After spring ploughing next year, the 2 rails will be together layout.”

Li Longji decided on the spot, he has been thinking about the new rail line for a long time. After listening to Li An ’s suggestion, he decided immediately.

“Your Majesty, there is one more thing, This Small Official must say.”

Li An thought of agreeing to Yu Chaoen, opened the mouth and said.

“Minister Li has something to say, but it’s okay to say, no need to put it through.”

“Your Majesty, the rail track from Chang’an to Luoyang is now fully connected, and 20 steam locomotives and a large number of carriages are also under construction. It will not be long before passenger and freight trains can be put into operation, which greatly facilitates the two cities. Connection, but it must be charged, and the profit will be very considerable. Moreover, with the further popularization of the railroad in the future, the profit will be greater. Whoever has the right to operate the railroad track can be rich. The enemy country, Your Majesty, how can this opportunity be given to others. “

Li An follows the path of temptation.

Li Longji hearing this, I am very excited. Recently these days, he has learned a lot about the train and the railroad track. He has also transported 2 labor in 10000 days to return to Chang’an City. He has seen the huge practical potential of the train. Li An reminded him that he naturally understood how high profit the railway could bring.

Imagine that a large transport caravan with 100 carriages from Chang’an City to Luoyang takes half a month. Moreover, it requires a lot of horsemen, horses and escorts. Both the horsemen and the escorts need to eat and pay. The wages, and the horses also need to eat forage, must consume a lot along the way, and it is also very time-consuming. In short, the transportation cost is huge.

And a train can easily transport these commodities to their destination within a day, which is greatly reduced by this General. For those who have train resources, they only need to drive less than carriage. Double the price, you can make the merchants gladly accept, and the profit in this is simply against the sky!

“Minister Li means let me add another industry and personally send my heart to be responsible for railway operations?”

Li Longji asked.

“Your Majesty, This Small Official is exactly what this means. Such a high profit can never be shared by any Aristocratic Family lords. Only all of them belong to Your Majesty and the Imperial Court, which is the blessing of my Great Tang.”

Li An did not shy away and said directly that through the solar cooker, he did not believe that Li Longji could not be bothered.

“Minister Li’s proposal is good, but how do I do it specifically? Who should I send to be responsible for railway operations?”

Li Longji looked towards Li An for help.

“Your Majesty, there are too few Bureaus of Internal Affairs, why not add a railway bureau to let Yu Chaoen serve as the railway order, who is responsible for this matter, and assign a large number of relevant officials to it, so as to ensure that the profit of the railway is firmly in Your Majesty In hand. “

Li An blunt said.

“Yu Chaoen? Such a big thing, he is a small court Eunuch, can he really be competent?”

Li Longji is very suspicious of Yu Chaoen’s ability, is Court Eunuch? Generally, many are ignorant and incompetent. Court Eunuch with skill is relatively few. Imagine that Scholar with knowledge and culture will choose to go to the palace without taking the imperial examination?

“Your Majesty, This Small Official has discovered through these months of observation that Yu Chaoen is still very capable and does meticulous things. Moreover, considering Your Majesty everywhere, even Guo Ziyi Old General can’t take him.”

Li An almost laughed. When he thought of the departure of Guo Ziyi panting with rage, he wanted to laugh.

“Guo Ziyi? What the hell is going on?”

Li An did not conceal, and told Guo Ziyi’s intention to deceive Yu Chaoen and go down the 500 solar stove to without omission and in detail.

“Good Guo Ziyi, I asked him to wait a little longer, he is good, even dare to deceive me.”

In Li Longji’s angry expression, with a hint of smile, he also admired Guo Ziyi’s boldness. If the 500 solar stove was really deceived, he, as Emperor, was really not good at handling this Guo old man. After all, old Guo is all about saving fodder for the military, and this is not a big deal. As an Emperor, he can only suffer dumb.

But at the same time, he also found Yu Chaoen’s reliability and high principle. If he is a general official, he might succumb to Guo Ziyi’s request, so that the 500 solar stove can’t be guaranteed.

“Haha! Yu Chaoen is really a personal talent, let him take charge of the solar cooker, but it is a bit flexed, okay, anyway, he is only responsible for the overall situation, the specific railway operations, or should be arranged by Minister Li.”

Li Longji figured it out and felt that Yu Chaoen could be appointed.

“Yes, Your Majesty, this Small Official.”

Li An responded happily.

“By the way, Minister Li, putting the railway into Internal Affairs, will definitely be opposed by the ministers, especially those who are admonishers, and I will definitely have trouble playing. How should I deal with it?”

Li Longji suddenly thought of a very headache.

“Your Majesty, the reason why the ministers will object is that the biggest reason is that they are worried about Yu Chaoen’s ability and think he can’t do well in railway work, but Yu Chaoen is only responsible for overall management, and does not need to be responsible for specific scheduling work. This point can be explained by Your Majesty. In addition, these advisors will only make comments, do nothing but do it, they will be included in the railway residence, responsible for supervising the work of Yu Chaoen, whoever dares to object, will be included in the railway bureau , In this way, not only can you reduce the opposition of the group officials, but also supervise Yu Chaoen to prevent him from doing extraordinary things. At the same time, it can also make Your Majesty’s ears quiet and quiet, and you can get 3 in one fell swoop! “

Li An gives the strategy.

“Okay, Minister Li is really resourceful. I will listen to you once. However, the grades of the internal service bureaus are too low. The rank of the railway bureau is higher. The highest grade is the Fourth Grade!”

Li Longji decided to raise the status of the railway bureau to show the group officials that Emperor attaches importance to railway work.

Later, Li An carefully told Li Longji about the soft sleeper, hard sleeper, soft seat, hard seat, dining car and stable car that he developed, and calculated the prices of various seats.

Li Longji listened to this and felt very new and excited, especially Li An’s approach of dividing fares into different grades is what excites Li Longji most.

“Minister Li, after the autumn harvest, I plan to patrol the Luoyang city and take the railway. You must prepare for it. Also, now that the steam locomotive has been invented, the capacity has greatly increased, and my Imperial Family special train should also be hung more. A car! “

Li Longji said with a smile.

“Your Majesty, This Small Official must be fully prepared. In addition, This Small Official has added ten more royal carriages for Your Majesty, which is connected to the last 5 knots. There are ten or 5 knots. If Your Majesty needs it, you can do it again. Add some more to store things like walking hoops and horses. “

Li An answered with a smile.

“Well, Minister Li is in charge? In addition, I need to prepare a few more trains. I can’t let the guards and horses run behind the train, so that they can also get on the train and guard my front and back on the Imperial Family.”

Li Longji was quite thoughtful, and even the guard horse thought of it.

“Your Majesty can rest assured that 20 locomotives can be completed in half a month. When the time comes, you can ensure that Your Majesty and the accompanying 10000 people will be shipped to Luoyang at once.”

Li An promised.

“No no no, I do n’t need to follow so many people on the day I travel. All the horses should be controlled at about 5000 people, but you can transport the 2 Armed Forces to Luoyang City 20000 days in advance. I have thousands of personal soldiers around me. enough.”

Li Longji felt that there were too many people, affecting the mood of travel, and decided to reduce the number of people and let the main body of the escort arrive at the destination in advance.

“Yes, Your Majesty, This Small Official knows what to do.”

Li An responded confidently.

“By the way, Minister Li, after the autumn, the weather will become more and more cold. Minister Li has vegetable greenhouses and can continue to grow vegetables, but the land of the old 100 people is completely deserted. Minister Li can engage in this aspect. Do research so that the 100 surnames can plant another crop after the autumn harvest and harvest it when they are plowing the spring next year. “

Li Longji just wanted Li An to retreat, but suddenly felt that Li An could be engaged in research in agriculture. After all, agriculture is the foundation of the Great Tang Empire. If you can plant 2 seasons a year, Great Tang ’s food shortage The problem is solved completely.

Li An hearing this, if you think about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case. In Guanzhong area, it seems that there is only this season crop of millet millet. After the autumn harvest, the land is deserted, and it will not be used until spring cultivation in the next year.

“Your Majesty, you don’t need to study this, just plant wheat directly.”

Li An directly gave the answer

“Wheat? In this weather in Guanzhong, can wheat be grown in autumn and winter?”

Li Longji is puzzled.

“This Small Official thinks it’s okay. If Your Majesty doesn’t believe it, you can plant a small area after the autumn harvest this year to see the effect. Then, if the effect is good, it can be promoted next year.”

Li An said easily.

“I understood and will arrange for the Ministry of Revenue to be responsible. If it really works well, Minister Li makes a big contribution.”

Li Longji said happily and waved his hand to make Li An step back.

“Minister Li, Minister Li …”

Li An had just left Zichen Hall and met Yu Chaoen at a corner outside. However, it did not look like an encounter, but Yu Chaoen was waiting here deliberately.

“Minister Li, what a coincidence! The little slave just passed by, just by.”

The acting technique of Yu Chaoen’s lying seems to be true, but Li An has already seen through everything. There are so many coincidences in the world.

“What a coincidence, what a coincidence! Envoy Yu is going to the Zichen Hall! Your Majesty is inside, go!”

Yu Chaoen took 2 steps and turned back to Li An, said with a smile: “Minister Li, this railway has been repaired. I do n’t know what plans are going to come. Someone has to take care of such a big thing!”

“Envoy Yu wanted to ask This Official to promise you something! How long have I been waiting here.”

Li An smiled slightly.

“Hehe, nothing can be concealed from Minister Li, just arrived, just arrived.”

Yu Chaoen said with a smile.

‘Your sister is still lying, but this is not the point, it is not important. ‘

“Congratulations to Envoy Yu. Your Majesty has decided to set up a railway bureau under Internal Affairs. The highest railway bureau is the Fourth Grade officer. Your Majesty also attaches great importance to Envoy Yu. If there is no accident, Envoy Yu will be responsible for the railway. The work of the Bureau. “

Li An said softly.

“Is it true? That’s really good, many thanks Minister Li, the slave will always remember your good.”

Yu Chaoen was so helpless that he was so excited.
