Chapter 340: the truth

At the end of the year, the entire capital was not happy.
Road closures in heavy snow and cold weather are not a joke, although Grand Master instructed the Ministry of Industry to get ice carts and ice lanes, which can quickly transport some canal supplies back to Beijing, slightly alleviating the shortage of supplies in the city.
However, relying solely on ice cars and ice roads, it is impossible to meet the huge needs of the people in Beijing and the exiles outside the city. All kinds of materials are very scarce.
That is to say, the granges outside the city are basically private wealthy industries, and the output of them makes the wealthy wealthy in the city barely nourish, which is a step back from the usual quality of life, causing complaints.
Today is also depressed. If it were not for the production of Huangzhuang outside the city, even the supply of materials to the palace would be a bit difficult to continue. From the lunar month to the year after today, the mood is relatively gloomy.
After all, it was difficult to wait until the weather showed signs of recovery, and trouble came again.
The ice layer of the canal began to melt, and the means of transport by ice carts were slowly becoming unusable. The thinned ice layer was no longer able to carry the ice carts.
This time, it is necessary to be personal. There is no problem in the connection between Beijing and the outside world, but the outside supplies cannot be transported in.
The Yuzhou section of the canal is full of pieces of ice. General cargo ships are afraid to move forward quickly. Even if the goods are transported to the previous distribution center, they cannot be quickly transported to Beijing without the ice truck transfer.
As the weather warmed and the ice and snow melted, all official roads became muddy, and materials could not be transported on a large scale at all. As a result, the supply of materials that Beijing could get was even scarce than it was during the snow disaster.
It wo n’t work like this!
The royal family and the nobles in the city can also rely on the farms outside the city to transport living materials for the ‘hard days’, but they ca n’t stand it for a long time.
At this time, the water and land transportation was considered to be broken for more than eight floors, and the situation was quite bad.
"May you ministers have an idea to resolve this matter?"
At the New Year's meeting, regardless of the rules of etiquette, today I directly asked the Minister present if there is a solution?
This time, I can ask a minister, but I don't have any idea now. How can they do it?
The Chaohui Palace is silent, and it is inconvenient to say things on such occasions. Even if you have an idea in your heart, you will not say it in the public eye.
Today, I was furious at first, but I quickly reacted and waved my hand to end the meeting in a hurry, greeted the old cabinet minister, and all six Shangshu books went to the Qianqing Palace for discussion.
Is this the correct way for the emperor to handle things!
In each case, it is not appropriate to discuss the matter at the small dynasty meeting first, and then pretend to announce a cut-off at the large dynasty meeting. How can such a regular official dare to take the initiative to challenge?
The grandfather entered the palace of Qing Dynasty with a senior cabinet and a few still-identified Shangshus.
"You guys, can you solve your troubles?"
There is no politeness at all, and he directly asks: "If you don't solve the problem as soon as possible, it doesn't matter if you don't worry about it, but can you guys who like it with patience and pamper?"
Can't stand it!
It was just this, but it would never be said before the emperor.
"Jiahou, do you have any ideas?"
He doesn't want to fool around like this now, he called people out.
"It's simple, give up the canal for the time being!"
Grandpa directly said: "Transfer from Tongzhou will soon arrive!"
"No, never!"
The Ministry of Finance Qian Shangshu jumped out to object again: "The Canal Relations Book 100,000 Ship Workers' Livelihood, once something goes wrong, it is not a joke!"
"I didn't say to abolish canal shipping. What is Qian Shangshu doing so urgently?"
The grandfather laughed, "But it's just to solve the immediate need, and it will be restored afterwards!"
"Light words!"
Qian Shangshu sneered: "Where did the goods shipped from the sea arrive?"
"Tongzhou!"
The grandfather revealed a smiling face for the intellectually disabled, and said lightly: "Tongzhou is the transit point, and the supplies from the sea can be delivered to the capital in time!"
"Ha ha, Master Jia seems to have forgotten, the road between Tongzhou and Beijing is already muddy!"
Qian Shangshu continued to be a demon, saying, "Your Majesty, don't listen to Master Jia's nonsense!"
"Indeed, the official road is muddy by the melting snow!"
Today, with a bitter laugh, he said helplessly: "This is not bad, I'm afraid that shipping will not work!"
Qian Shangshu sneered again and again, but he wanted to see the joke of Grandpa.
It's just a pity ...
"It's easy!"
The old man said directly, "Isn't the previous ice road built in a few days?"
"Right now, the roads are paved with cinders. So many people will be able to call the official road from Tongzhou to Jingcheng for half a month at most, and all of them will become solid and tight cinder roads!"
"Jia Hou, how long does it take to build such a road?"
A joy in today's eyes, he hurriedly asked, "I'm afraid that the official road from the dock to Tongzhou will need to be repaired and reorganized by hand!"
"Your Majesty!"
The old man laughed: "Anyway, the exiles outside the city only need a bite to eat, and they are willing to sell hard labor. As long as the staff is organized enough, it can be easily done!"
"Jia Enhou, how long do you need, and how much manpower can you do in a short time?"
Today laughs: "Is it okay for you to take responsibility for this?"
"to make!"
The grandfather gladly accepted, whispering: "Your Majesty, this time, I still use the work to substitute for the work, it is estimated that a lot of food will be consumed!"
"As long as the official road from Tongzhou to Jingcheng can be repaired in a short period of time and the resources outside can be sent in unreasonably, what's the point of consuming a little food?"
Today, he waved his hands, and said with great arrogance: "It is so settled, don't let Jia Enhou be disappointed!"
The grandfather took the order lightly, and soon left the palace. The Ministry of Industry's knock gate quickly started to work again.
Soon, the grandfather was in a refugee camp outside the city, carrying hundreds of thousands of young people, under the coordinated command of the officials of the Ministry of Industry, and quickly put into the work of repairing official roads.
After a cold winter, the life of the exiles outside the capital city is still difficult. There are no major inputs. The government's congee is always clear soup and water.
They can't wait to be as busy as possible in order to earn enough rations. This was the case when the ice track was built last winter, and this time is no exception.
The scene of collective labor of hundreds of thousands of people is very shocking. The most shocking thing is that by organizing the construction of the refugees in sections, in just less than half a month, the official road between Tongzhou and Beijing has been quickly repaired. about there.
At this time, Grandpa proposed to the present that there are a large number of laborers who can repair the wharf docking at sea, so that the ship will not be shored up.
Today, he went out of the city to inspect and accept the solid and good cinder road outside the city. He was very satisfied with the work of the grandfather, and directly agreed to the grandfather's proposal, leaving the grandfather to take full charge of the matter.
The old man was not polite. Hundreds of thousands of young laborers were busy working together. Not only was the scene spectacular, but the labor sales were also quite amazing.
However, in just half a day, a standard sea boat dock has been set up in the place where the land of Gyeonggi faces the sea, can it be used to dock ships of more than three thousand stones.
The side of the pier has just been repaired, and a sea boat has docked over there.
The next thing is very simple. Just like the previous successful construction of the ice road, a steady stream of materials was transported off the sea, and then directly sent to the capital by means of horse-drawn carriages.
Suddenly, the shortage of various living materials in Beijing was mostly solved.
"Jainhou, you are doing well!"
On this day, today, the grand master was called to the palace and praised him.
"It's nothing to raise your hand!"
The grandfather waved and smiled, "In fact, I still don't want to see the misery of the exiles outside the city, but I just do my best!"
"What a little effort!"
The look on his face today is somewhat inexplicable, and he said leisurely: "You, the princes of the court, only you raised it and resolved the trouble of the court, and I will never forget it!"
The old man didn't take it seriously, the emperor's promise really couldn't be trusted, he nodded and didn't say much, and came out of the palace not long after ~ EbookFREE.me ~ he didn't return directly to the courtyard, instead he went I went to a restaurant under my house, went up to the third floor, looked for a private room, and sat down. It didn't take long for a middle-aged man to come in from the outside.
"How about, have you started recruiting refugees?"
Grandpa didn't lift his head, and asked directly: "I hope you don't use strong, but only recruit families of refugees who are willing to stay away from Daqi!"
"Sir, please rest assured!"
The middle-aged man replied in a congratulatory voice: "Before coming, the prince and the king of the county had already instructed the little ones to be careful not to expose themselves easily!"
The grandfather nodded and asked, "What's the situation with the king and the king of the county, do you completely occupy the land of Java?"
"about there!"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "It's just that the number of ordinary people under Daqi is too small. It's unheard of that Daqi Jingyu was hit by a heavy snow disaster. The two highnesses hurriedly organized a fleet to come over to pick up people!"
Speaking of this, he paused and continued; "Fortunately, this time, there is an adult to help set off, and he can recruit a large number of exiles without knowing it, otherwise we will definitely show clues!"
"So good!"
The grandfather laughed: "After I went back, I told the two His Highnesses that what Jia promised was already done, and I hope they won't regret it at that time!"
The middle-aged man didn't say a word. This defeated him can blindly participate in the matter, no matter who prevails in the end, if his mouth is not strictly exposed, there will be no place for burial.
"Well, let's go after we finish talking!"
The grandfather stood up and waved his hand and smiled, "In the future, try to contact as little as possible. If there are any difficulties or troubles, please find the two relics of your highness, and don't always bother me!"
After speaking, patted his and turned away, without any thoughts about wanting to say more.
