Chapter 539 Surveying and Mapping

Zhuang Diaozhi recognized the specific route with such sharp eyes, but Liu Peng had no idea at all: "It's just a general plan. You still have to choose the specific route so that I can make up my mind!"

How to set this route? Liu Peng really doesn’t have much clue in his heart. The key is that although he can walk a straight line from Longkou to Jimo, it almost coincides with another time and space Longqing Expressway, the problem is that it is already very, very late to build the Longqing Expressway, so whether he can walk a straight line and whether there is technical difficulty, Liu Peng is completely unsure.

He continued: "But no matter what, the road always needs to be repaired. If we want to expand our influence, we rely on road construction!"

Longkou has no right name, so it can only rely on the combination of huge interests to firmly pull other prefectures, counties, villages and towns into Longkou's sphere of influence. Yang Guangwen asked keenly: "Is there still a road that goes east and west?"

In the past, there was already an Guanma Avenue that was heading east and west. Longkou relied on this Guanma Avenue to continuously expand in both east and west directions. However, now that Longkou's expansion has encountered a real bottleneck, Liu Peng had to consider the issue of opening up a new path.

Although Liu Peng made up his mind roughly, he still didn't have much confidence in the specific details: "Whether to go north or east or east, the key is to see how Zhuangtu helps me make up my mind!"

Speaking of this, Liu Peng became full of confidence. He told the two core players of the Longkou Gang: "But with Longkou's current strength, he can only cultivate one, and he must use the existing official roads and straight roads as much as possible. Although our Longkou emphasizes one from the people and uses it for the people, everyone knows what the situation is like!"

Although Longkou has gained a lot in the drought in the past year, I don’t know how many businesses it has saved, whether it is Zhuangzhi or Yang Guangwen, they know how much it will cost to repair a Guanma Avenue that can pass through a carriage and a ox carriage. If the expenditure is not controlled, the expenditure may make Longkou lose everything.

Yang Guangwen had already heard the taste over there: "Mr. Liu means that our Qingzhou and Gaomi also have the opportunity to build a road?"

Liu Peng pointed to Zhuang Diaozhi and said, "The key is to see how Diaozhi helps me make up my mind. Diaozhi, I know Juzhou is your hometown, but your responsibility this time is heavy, which is related to the success or failure of our Longkou. The choice of routes must be very cautious. You must know that this road is filled with money from Longkou!

Although he said that if he wanted to be rich, for Longkou, the investment was only given in the short term but no return was seen. Therefore, Zhuang Ding's expression was particularly serious. He said firmly: "You will not let down Mr. Liu! Mr. Liu, I have to ask a few more questions!"

Liu Peng said generously: "Ask!"

Zhuang Diaozhi immediately asked, "Mr. Liu, I want to ask, do you want to pass through the ox cart and horse cart? Should you just walk in one direction or two cars pass by in a staggered manner?"

Liu Peng immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Of course, two cows and horses pass by one. If you walk in one direction, there is no meaning to build this road!"

There are quite a lot of roads in the territory of the East Three Prefectures now, but they are all extremely difficult to walk. It is still very difficult to walk, let alone transport bulk goods. Zhuangzhi couldn't help but exclaim Liu Peng's spirit: "Young Master Liu is indeed a big deal! Young Master Liu, how many people can you mobilize when building roads at that time?"

Liu Peng told Zhuang Diaozhi: "Of course I will try my best to support you, and at least mobilize thousands of people at the same time. I am planning to start building a section of the road as a test for the entire road during the slack season this winter!"

He told his specific plan: "You also know that many people in the East Three Prefectures owed money and grain from the Beihai Money House. If they want to pay off their debts, they can follow them to build roads. In the winter, they can bring all these people to the construction site to help build roads!"

This is to use labor for relief, Yang Guangwen couldn't help but sigh: "Young Master Liu is indeed generous!"

But Zhuang Zhi next to him said bluntly: "One thousand people are not enough, at least two thousand people are needed, and all the money, grain and utensils must be prepared. This is the big part of the expenditure."

Liu Peng nodded: "Try to do as much as possible. As long as you adjust your needs, I will try my best to raise it for you, but I will have to go out and go out in the past few months. I'm afraid I have to go all over the East Three Mansions!"

Zhuang Tizhi ​​thought for a moment and soon asked a specific technical question: "Mr. Liu, it is easy to build a road, but people and bicycles are crushed by wind and rain. Even if the road is repaired, I am afraid it will not last long!"

The trunk road network in ancient Chinese society generally maintained the general framework of the roads and straight roads of Qin Shihuang's period, just like the east-west Guanma Avenue, which is equivalent to the big trunk of the East Three Prefectures. It is actually the old road that Qin Shihuang walked on when he visited Qilu. Although it has been repaired for more than a thousand years, this road is still not much different from that when Qin Shihuang was on his patrol.

The reason why this avenue has remained relatively stable for thousands of years is not only limited by the government's financial resources, but also by technical level. Even if the critical Guanma Avenue has extremely weak ability to pass through, it is very difficult to maintain. When it encounters heavy rain, it is in a difficult situation of traffic interruption, and its ability to resist disasters is extremely poor.

The repeated crushing of wooden carts and a heavy rain may make the road difficult to pass, and only peerless emperors like Qin Shihuang can carry out such a large project.

Opening up new roads has become an option with great returns on investment but extremely low investment, so local governments will wait until important roads in the country are really difficult to pass before they repair and repair them. Therefore, Zhuangzhi said that Liu Peng was "big deal".

Liu Peng had planned this issue long ago. He told Zhuang Diaozhi: "Tiaozhi has cooperated well with Demons and Nie Chuan, and we must cooperate well with them in the future!"

Zhuang Diaozhi knew that the institute had always been full of new things. Since Liu Peng said that, the institute was ready: "They have started experimenting?"

"Well, I have started to experiment!" Liu Peng replied to Zhuangzhi: "But they are just helping you. You are the real leader. You have to build the team!"

Yang Guangwen next to him gave Zhuang Zhi's advice: "Then you have to transfer some elite soldiers and generals from the research institute, otherwise you may not be able to handle it by just one of the people who adjust it!"

Speaking of this, Yang Guangwen couldn't help laughing: "No matter how sad Nie Chuan feels, he has to call out elite soldiers and strong generals, especially those who can write, draw and calculate, must not be missing!"

Yang Guangwen talked about the good seedlings brought by Demons and Nie Chuan. Not only did he learn geometry from Demons, but he also learned some engineering and surveying and mapping from Demons. Although his overall level is not high and he can only be a technician at most, he is already the top talent in Longkou.

Zhuang Diaozhi agreed with Yang Guangwen's opinion. Although his friendship with Nie Chuan was very good, he said firmly at this time: "Mr. Liu, Brother Yang is right. He has a specialty in his skills. If he wants to travel the entire Three East Palaces before this winter, he will have to be a strong general."

Liu Peng couldn't help but sigh: "If you want to transfer someone again, Nie Chuan may not only be a heartache, but he will definitely come to me to complain again!"

Nie Chuan is a real person. No matter how difficult it is, he will grit his teeth and hold on. He will not run to Liu Peng to make a big fuss, but this does not mean that he has no emotions. He will definitely run to Liu Peng to complain desperately.

However, Liu Peng could also understand Nie Chuan's mood. He worked so hard for so long but only trained more than ten very unqualified technicians. The only advantage of these technicians is that they are similar to Demons. Although they are not good at philatelic, they can be used as panacea. No matter what problems they encounter, they can come in handy. These dozen technicians can also be said to be the real technical core of the institute.

However, when the medical research institute was established the last time, three technicians who knew some chemistry and botany were transferred. Now Zhuangzhi has a bigger appetite. Whether it is surveying and mapping or construction, four or five technicians or even more must be transferred at one time. Nie Chuan will definitely feel a little emotional.

But this road cannot be repaired again. Liu Peng thought for a while and said, "I will try my best to solve it for you, but I still say the same thing. If you can solve it yourself, try to solve it yourself. Well, since you have a group of elite soldiers, I will give you another task!"

"Mr. Liu, please speak!" Zhuang Diaozhi became excited: "Mr. Liu, Diaozhi will definitely live up to his mission."

Liu Peng said: "Since you have a group of elite soldiers and generals in your hands, you will have to travel all over the three eastern prefectures next, you have to draw an accurate map for me. In the future, the patrol team will rely mainly on your map when fighting!"

Maps play a particularly important role in military operations, but Liu Peng only has some maps that are extremely inaccurate and even sketches.

During the battle, the patrol team suffered more than once because of these inaccurate maps. Fortunately, the patrol team fought at home most of the time, and many gentry acted as guides, so they did not lose the entire war because of the error on the map.

However, Liu Peng's vision could not be limited to the small Longkou and East-West Guanma Avenue, so he was ready to take this opportunity to completely clarify the terrain of the entire East Three Prefectures.

Zhuang Diaozhi was a little confused when he heard Liu Peng’s new task. Now there is not much time left for him, but he really doesn’t know how many people he will transfer to him.
