The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, but the household members are stumbling, and the Ministry of Industry is exploiting layer by layer. There is no money in the locality. How to repair the official roads?

This problem is not only for Fuzhou, but for all remote and backward places. But it cannot be generalized. Each region needs to discuss countermeasures based on actual conditions.

Is it difficult to build a road? Not difficult!

Your Majesty can send a supervisor to supervise the matter, or even intervene personally, but the monarch of a country personally supervises the repair of official roads in a state. What does this mean? It will not be laughed at by other countries.

So your Majesty is just asking about the renovation of Fuzhou's official roads? Naturally not. If Xiao Rui thinks that he only asks this, he thinks the question is too simple.

Your Majesty’s inquiry is an extension. It is actually asking how to let the backward Fuzhou get rid of poverty and get full development!

This problem is more difficult than building a road.

In Fuzhou, there are towering peaks and ridges, rolling hills, river valleys and basins interspersed between them. Mountains and hills account for more than 80% of the total area of ​​the state. Although the water system is dense and there are many rivers, the water is turbulent and the drop is large. The river transportation is not excellent Ways, in general, Fuzhou's internal and external environments have affected its development.

Of course, there are also advantages here. The forest is lush and the water is abundant, but does it matter?

Can we develop nursing homes, engage in farmhouses, or play hydropower?

In addition, the minerals in Fuzhou are relatively rich, the main minerals are iron, manganese, copper, lead-zinc, gold, silver, anthracite, quartz sand, kaolin, granite, etc. The output of many mineral deposits is among the top three in the Great Xia Kingdom.

As we all know, the weakness of Daxia has always been the scarcity of minerals. For this reason, after the alliance with Dayan, the primary product for trade is ore. Fuzhou is bordered by Dayan, and the natural land is also rich in minerals. If it can be developed and utilized, it will definitely be a profitable business.

But with this good set of cards, why can Fuzhou still lose?

First of all, because of the topography, minerals are not in front of you, but are hidden deep underground, in the mountains, in the lofty mountains, how to excavate, how to excavate, and how to transport? Moreover, the minerals are controlled by the state. At first, people could mine by themselves. Later, because of the shortage of minerals, it was banned. Nowadays, it must be carried out under the auspices of the imperial court, and the initial mining capital investment is relatively large.

Secondly, it is necessary to arrange for miners to look for mines and find mineral deposits. A large number of people are needed to mine, and mining is very dangerous. Once the earth dragon rolls over, it may collapse and the wages are low. The people are even more reluctant to do this. One line.

So a good project is delayed for various reasons.

As for the other advantages of Fuzhou, Xiao Rui couldn't think of it.

However, it is a very good development project from the perspective of minerals alone. As long as the problems mentioned above are solved, they are not problems.

Don’t forget, Xiao Rui now has black gunpowder. The explosive power of black gunpowder has the power of cracking rocks to open up mountains. Mom no longer has to worry about rocks blocking our way, and it can save a lot of manpower and material resources to make excavating mountains change. It's easier.

As the saying goes, with Belden, as long as the biggest problem is solved, the others can be solved.

But your Majesty also knows this truth, but digging a hole in the mountains is the biggest difficulty.

Xiao Rui understood the key, so he smiled and said, "Father, if the mining capacity in Fuzhou is excavated on a large scale, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for Fuzhou to build a spacious and flat official road?"

"I understand the truth naturally, but the minerals in Fuzhou are not so easy to dig out!" Xia Huang sighed.

Xiao Rui smiled and said, "Father, the son has a treasure, and I'm going to let my father see it!"

"Oh? Let me know?" Xia Huang came to be interested. He hadn't seen any treasures in the world, and it was really shameless to let him see and see.

Xiao Rui said to Mu Chen who was driving outside: "Mu Chen, stop the carriage."

Mu Chen immediately grabbed the reins, and then quickly moved to the ladder to let Xiao Rui and Xia Huang go down.

At this time, surrounded by mountains, there is a lot of greenery, and the secluded official roads are rarely crowded, and the time is quiet.

"Yuan Fang, take out this king's treasure!" Xiao Rui shouted immediately.

Li Yuanfang immediately dismounted, took out a pack of black powder, and presented it to Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui said, "Go and find a big tree, pull out a hole, and let your Majesty and the others open their eyes!"

"Yes!" Li Yuanfang did it immediately.

Xia Huang looked at the paper bag in Xiao Rui's hand curiously, and asked, "What is this? What's so peculiar?"

Xiao Rui unzipped the paper bag, revealing the leads and black powder inside. Xia Huang, Hai Dafu, Mu Chen and others looked around in order to come over, but they didn't find any strangeness about the black powder.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be sulfur and charcoal powder in it?" Mu Chen couldn't help but said after looking at it.

Emperor Xia nodded and asked, "Why, do you want to learn alchemy too? This is what you call a baby?"

Xiao Rui smiled and said, "Father, don't worry, wait for the good news."

Seeing your Majesty dumbfounded and seeing the appearance of the world before, Xiao Rui felt a deeply evil taste.

As for why he took out the black powder and didn't hide it as a secret weapon, this was also the result of Xiao Rui's deliberation. It can be used as a secret weapon once or twice, and one day I cannot keep it from your Majesty. Such a powerful baby will deliberately hide it from your Majesty, but it will cause very bad suspicion. In that case, why not take it out and let your Majesty see Xiao Rui's sincerity!

Xiao Rui had to work hard to express himself so that he could ascend to the position of prince, and black powder was a step for him to rise to the position of prince, allowing him to step up, higher than the other princes.

After all, the other princes had to make a small noise to win over officials, and Xiao Rui was already preparing for the expansion of the territory, and it was clear at a glance which one was strong and which was weak.

Therefore, taking advantage of today's topic, Xiao Rui took the initiative to take out the black powder!

Li Yuanfang quickly dug a hole in the tree, then took the gunpowder bag and stuffed it into the hole.

Xiao Rui pointed to the tree with a diameter of more than 30 centimeters and asked, "Father, how powerful do you think this package is?"

"Power?" Xia Huang shook his head and said: "Where do you start with the word power? What power does this have?"

Xiao Rui looked at the others, Yan Qing, Mu Chen, and Qinglian Swordsman frowned, looking puzzled.

"Okay, let's just announce it! Yuanfang, let's get started." Xiao Rui was full of evil interest, and then pulled Xia Huang back.

Li Yuanfang ignited the fuse quickly, and then quickly left. Everyone witnessed the fuse ignite to the end and burned to the full paper bag stuffed into the tree hole.

Then, as Xiao Rui expected, the unexpected explosion from Xia Huang and others blasted!

boom…

The explosion sounded, causing the unsuspecting Xia Huang and Mu Chen's hearts to tremble, and they contracted subconsciously, revealing a guarded nervous reaction.

Immediately afterwards, the tree trunk exploded, the white fibers of the tree were torn apart, the trunk was directly broken, and then the tree crown tilted and collapsed.

Even if Emperor Xia was very knowledgeable, the first time he saw something of this kind of power, his face was shocked, and the others were even more stunned.

Xiao Rui and Guo Jia looked at each other and smiled more happily. They liked the shocked and stunned expressions of others. They were full of superiority!

Emperor Xia was the first to recover, grabbing Xiao Rui, and asking, "What is this? Why is there such a terrifying power? Hurry up, tell me!"

Xiao Rui didn't dare to conceal it, and immediately pulled the origin of the black gunpowder to alchemy, which was related to the method of burning fire. This is a seamless story, and even if your Majesty pursues it, he won't find any mistakes.

After listening to Xiao Rui's introduction, Emperor Xia's mind immediately became alive.

It was just a small package of weight, which was to blow up a large tree. What if it was hundreds of kilograms?

"It turns out that this is the opportunity for the mining of ore in Fuzhou, Rui'er you said!" After Xia Huang finished speaking, his eyes brightened!

The blasting of mountains and rocks is for construction, but what about the military?

If you set up an ambush in a certain place, invite the enemy to enter the urn, and then use the dead soldiers to light the object, what will be the result?

Emperor Xia suddenly realized how terrible this thing was!

Xiao Rui took the opportunity to say: "Father, the son once said to the champion Hou and Zhuge in the Champion Hou’s Mansion that the son would create a weapon that they had never seen before. This kind of black powder is just one of them. It is the first, not the last. So the son is not arrogant or daydreaming, but really does not put Zhao Guo and Qi Guo in his eyes!"

Xia Huang was taken aback, looking at the confidence and arrogance on Xiao Rui's face. If it were normal, maybe he would think he was too naive, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that he was confident.

Yes, I always think of him too fragile and want to protect him, but he is an adult, he has the blood of himself and Ye Qianlan, will he be a weak and incompetent person?

"Very good!" Xia Huang responded with emotion, then patted Xiao Rui on the shoulder, and said, "What is the name of this object?"

"Gunpowder!" Xiao Rui told ~www.ltnovel.com~ Xia Huang solemnly said: "This object is a peerless secret, and should not be known to anyone, especially the enemy country! Since you discovered it, the production of this object will be handed over to you. You, in the future, there will be a time when gunpowder roars the world!"

"Yes, my son will follow the order!" Xiao Rui hurriedly took the order.

Everyone turned their heads and glanced at the trees that were blown down. The loud noise just lingered in their minds.

Next, the group continued on their way. When they came to a steep mountain peak, the Qinglian swordsman Zhang Ziqin who followed closely behind the carriage suddenly shouted: "Alert, there is an ambush!"

When it was said that it was too late, Yan Qing immediately set up a powerful five-stone bow, and Mu Chen also drew out the sword around his waist. Li Yuanfang and Dianwei were a little slower, but soon they were also alert around the carriage.

The Qinglian swordsman Zhang Ziqin was also a sixth-level master, good at swordsmanship, and had amazing ears. He was an assistant recruited by Emperor Xia and was not on duty in the palace, so Xiao Rui saw him for the first time.

And as everyone was on alert, the secret enemy saw that Xiao Rui and his party were not leaving, and could not fall into the ambush ahead, so they almost rushed out immediately!
