In February of the 14th year of Jingkang, the northwest was still cold and the ice and snow had not yet passed.

Even the Gobi Desert is covered with snow.

But outside Yumen Pass, you can see dense crowds of people. They were wearing black cotton jackets and their ears were cold red.

The most primitive carts arrived outside Yumen Pass one after another and entered the cement manufacturing plant there.

Tang Ke, who was sentenced to the Hetao Prefecture and the Strategy Envoy, arrived outside Yumen Pass in mink surrounded by officers.

Transportation Commissioner Fan Chunren said: "Golden Tang, those cement factories are producing cement day and night. In a year, we only need one year to build the cement road from Dunhuang to Gaochang. Our speed must be faster than Longyou."

Tang Ke was under a lot of pressure. He sighed, but there was still a faint smile on his face: "We don't have a year. In November, there will be strong winds and snow in the Western Regions and we can't work at all. We only have ten months."

Fan Chunren said: "Grandpa Tang, does the subordinate official have a saying that he should not say or not?"

"explain."

"Li Guang also has a share in the road from Dunhuang to Gaochang. He should recruit people to build them together."

Tang Ke glanced at him and said, "Don't think about it. Gaochang had just moved tens of thousands of people over. Li Guang was busy settling down the people. There were various fortifications in the city, but there was no one at all."

He was right. Li Guang now wanted to mobilize the entire Gaochang people to work together and build a beautiful new city in the Song Dynasty.

But Gaochang has only a small population, which is not enough at all.

Li Guang wrote to Zhao Huan more than once to relocate the population from Hepao.

But the migrating population is a huge siege, and Tang Ke must have disagreed.

You know, Heluo has just experienced the war.

Who is not a wounded master?

However, over the years, Guanzhong has gradually recovered, but the people in Guanzhong are not willing to go to the Western Regions.

Fan Chunren hesitated and said, "Longyou has mobilized the local Xiang army, why don't we also mobilize the Xiang army?"

"I think too, Yu Yunwen persuaded Zhang Xiaochun in the court on the grounds that the remnants of the barbarians were still in trouble in Heyashi's way, not to mobilize the Heyashi's way to prepare for emergencies."

Fan Chunren was a little angry now. Yu Yunwen actually stabbed him here, which was really hateful.

"Send more staff more, you can give the salary a little higher, and I will ask the emperor for some money."

"Grandpa Tang, our current finances are almost overspending, I'm afraid..."

"There is no way, I'll ask for it with shame."

A few days later, eight hundred miles of urgent memorials were delivered to Zhao Huan's table. It was Tang Ke's memorials.

After reading Tang Ke's memorial, Zhao Huan made a rough reply: According to the rules, he went to the Royal Bank next to him to borrow, and remember to repay it on time.

After reading the emperor's reply, Tang Ke refused to give up and wrote another memorial to Zhao Huan.

It is said that if the court does not support He routine, the local government in Xingqing Prefecture will be paralyzed and asks His Majesty to give him some money.

Zhao Huan rudely approved: Royal Bank!

Tang Ke’s memorial: Your Majesty, I can’t sleep at night, toss and turn, and the suffering is deep!

After that, Zhao Huan did not reply.

After a while, Tang Ke received a letter from Zhao Ding: How much does it take for Mr. Tang to do? The door of the Royal Bank will always be open to Mr. Tang.

Tang Ke sighed, as if he saw the emperor's stingy face, and as if he saw the expression of Zhao Ding's power.

Actually, it’s not that I don’t have money. I just think that the emperor’s task is so heavy, and at least I have to deduct some money from the emperor. It can’t be all done by the local governments that are tricked by He.

Now that the emperor is silent, Tang Ke has no choice.

I had to go to the Royal Bank of Song Dynasty, which is stationed in Xingqing Prefecture, to make a loan.

After the loan was completed, Tang Ke found another 100,000 people and started to build roads day and night.

At this time, the order in Gaochang City had long been restored.

The originally narrow Gaochang City was planned to be expanded.

A large number of workers were working outside the old city, some digging the ground, some moving bricks, some consigning wood, and some transporting stones.

The people of Gaochang City have never been so enthusiastic since ancient times.

When I built fortifications, I actually had money to take, and I had a lot of money to get.

Under the rule of the Song people, it seems that Bilege is much more in power than before.

Gaochang actually lacks a lot of things.

First of all, Gaochang has no agriculture and is not rich in food.

Therefore, daily food and beverages are very expensive.

Food is the most important thing for the people. When officials in the Song Dynasty governed the local area, the first priority was to stabilize the food price.

In order to increase the number of people's food, Li Guang had to buy food from Herara and Qingtangcheng.

But Gaochang's current fiscal revenue is very bad. Yelu Dashi blocked the West Road, and many businessmen could not come. Gaochang's business transaction volume was also declining sharply. He had to forcefully borrow money from Royal Bank to make a living.

Fortunately, the business foundation of the Song Dynasty is strong enough now. Once cities like Gaochang start to implement the new policies, many wealthy businessmen will come here to invest.

For example, Xue Donglai, the richest man in Chang'an City, took his wife back to Gaochang, bought a lot of land here, and made a special investment in building a textile factory.

When the two people in the northwest were in a state of pain, Qin Hui from the South China Sea was the most comfortable.

The emperor recently wrote him a letter, telling him a way to make money: There are still many rich people in the Song Dynasty now, so you can prepare several ships to take the rich people from Hong Kong Island to experience the exotic style in the South China Sea.

Qin Hui had to sigh at the emperor's quick thinking.

So he immediately bought some large ships from the Civil Shipbuilding Bureau in Quanzhou, and then sent people to Hangzhou, Fuzhou and Quanzhou to promote the exotic style of the South China Sea.

Not to mention, this trick is really effective. Many rich people became curious and set off on the ship to the South China Sea.

Qin Hui immediately wrote a letter to Zhao Huan to report the results.

March is the season for peach blossoms, and the backyard of Yanfu Palace is full of peach blossoms.

Zhao Huan sang sake in the peach blossom rain while flipping through Qin Hui's memorials.

He didn't expect that the traveling system would be effective.

Those people in later generations liked to travel everywhere, but they didn’t expect that the Song people didn’t want to be idle either!

Zhao Huan thought about it carefully. Chinese people have always had a strong desire to explore the outside world since ancient times.

However, there are wild places everywhere, and there are many unknown dangers to go there.

But now it’s different. The South China Sea is full of warships from the Song Dynasty, and it’s not a year or two that the pirates are obedient.

The Song people dared to go out to sea.

The surprise brought by the accident made Zhao Huan seem to see a path to make money.

So, not long after, Li Guang and Tang Ke both began to make money.

It’s not that I didn’t know, but after a try, I realized that there were really ordinary people who were willing to travel to the river routine and the Western Regions.

Li Guang couldn't help but sigh: "There are thousands of ways to make money, and the government and the people combined together are not as good as Your Majesty."
