Doing so can make the high places on both sides of the entire road level, and will not cause water and potholes on the ground due to the academy.

Someone discovered that these materials were used by rich and powerful people to build houses. For a while, people followed suit and calculated the cost of Gu Qing's road construction. Most people can't afford it, but they are all successful. Is this a waste of money or a road builder? How much money does Gu Qing have to lose.

"Do you know what people outside say about you?" Li Tai said while looking at Gu Qing.

"You can call me an infrastructure madman." Gu Qing nodded and said.

"People say you're a prodigal! Good money is used to build roads, what good is it for you to do this?"

"If you want to get rich, build roads first." Gu Qing said in a spirited manner.

"You can spend your money as you like." Li Tai said with a sad face, "But you spend so much money, more than tens of thousands of dollars a day, which makes Li Chengqian very anxious."

"Why is he so anxious?".

……

In the Ganlu Hall, Li Chengqian threw the memorial in his hand to the ground in a panic, "Good Gu Qing, you would rather spend it than deposit it in my bank, right?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Wang Jin looked at Li Chengqian who was furious and shook his head for a while, "Your Majesty, why don't we watch for a while longer."

"Then I just watch him spend all the money?" Li Chengqian asked.

Wang Jin picked up the memorial that Li Chengqian threw on the ground and said, "If Your Majesty is in a hurry, it will backfire. Why don't you think about why Gu Qing spent so much money at such a critical moment?"

Li Chengqian looked at Wang Jin suspiciously.

Wang Jin continued, "What if Gu Qing is just trying to test His Majesty? The head office knows that there is a lot of money in the hands of the stockholders. If Gu Qing deposits so much money in the bank, will it be used by the royal family? If the old slave is Gu Qing, he will definitely consider this. The question is, the so-called road construction money is the same when it is spent, if His Majesty is in a hurry to ask Gu Qing to deposit the money in the bank, it will arouse Gu Qing's resentment, please also learn from Your Majesty."

Li Chengqian calmed down, thinking about the back and forth.

Seeing that Li Chengqian had calmed down, Wang Jin stopped talking.

Changan

Li Ran also heard that Gu Qing was going to build the road, and he thought to ask the maid beside him, "How is the repair going?"

"The repair is quite fast. It is said that it can repair two or three miles a day." The maid said, "It's just that the guys who sell stones around are a little unruly. Seeing that Gu Qing wanted to build roads, they raised the price of the stones. It doesn't matter how much you buy, whether the price is expensive or not, people outside say that Gu Qing is just wasting his own money, and the people in the surrounding villages are going crazy to build roads to earn a fortune before the grain of mangoes, how much does the Gu family have? How many people do you accept?"

"Is he spending money to have fun?" Li Ran was full of doubts, "What good will building roads do for him, Gu Qing?"

"Perhaps this is why money is hard to buy, Gu Qing has money, and it doesn't matter how he wants to spend it."

Li Ran thought for a while, how could a guy who desperately wanted money spend all his money like this? It was like building a port back then. At the beginning, Gu Qing spent a lot of money to build the port. At the beginning, many people thought that Gu Qing was messing around, but he gained afterward. The biggest one is Gu Qing.

Li Ran was thinking about it, and came to Gu's house as soon as he went out.

Wu Mei sat quietly in the courtyard, mending the clothes with a needle and thread.

Li Ran is a frequent visitor of the Gu family, and Wu Mei also ordered that Li Ran not be stopped. Li Ran is also a very important business partner of the Gu family, and besides, the Gu family and the Zhaojun Li family just did a big business together.

"Your family has a big business, Gu Qing is squandering outside, but you are frugal here repairing clothes." Li Ran came to Wu Mei and said.

Wu Mei looked at the half-repaired clothes and said, "The child grows up day by day, and the clothes can't fit anymore. If you change it, you can still wear the first hair."

Li Ran sat down beside Wu Mei, "What is Gu Qing building the road for?"

"What else can it be for?" Wu Mei said with a smile, "Of course it is to make money."

"Sure enough." Li Ran nodded.

Wu Mei mended the clothes and said, "The sleeves and trouser legs have been lengthened, so the brat should be able to wear them when he comes back."

Li Ran looked at Wu Mei with envy in his eyes.

Standing up, Wu Mei handed the clothes to the servant beside her and said, "Are you free?"

"Yes, I have a lot of free time every day." Li Ran stood up.

Wu Mei took a basket from the servant, "Come with me to Ganye Temple to meet an old friend."

Li Ran could guess who Wu Mei was referring to. At first, Gu Qing and Wu Mei lived in the Taoist temple. After the new house was built, there lived a princess in the Taoist temple. That princess was also an old neighbor of Gu Qing's family, and now she has been living in the Ganye Temple , accompanied by the ancient Buddha with blue lanterns.

"Let's go, I'll accompany you." Li Ran nodded.

Wu Mei stood at the door and waited, and a woman came not far away.

"Who is this……".Li Ran looked at the woman in front of him. He had never seen someone dressed plainly, but she was accompanied by a few court ladies.

The other party was also dressed in elegantly dressed Li Ran.

"This is the current Empress Su." Wu Mei introduced on both sides, "This is the head of the Li family in Zhaojun, and Li Ran is the first

"So it's the head of the Li family." The Su family saluted Li Ran politely.

Li Ran hurriedly replied, "I've seen the queen."

Su Shi smiled lightly, "What kind of queen is just a false name, it would be better to be an ordinary woman."

"Let's go, today is a good day to go to Ganye Temple to pray for blessings, so let's relax." Wu Mei led the two women all the way to Ganye Temple.

Li Ran didn't expect to be the current empress, but only knew that the crown prince has become Gu Qing's disciple. Since when did the empress Su's family get so close to the Gu family, it must be because of the harem that the empress left the palace. Since Su's father, Su After the head of the family passed away, the Su family fell and scattered, and the family's fall made the queen always at a disadvantage in the harem.

Which of the few concubines in Li Chengqian's harem is not a person with various methods. The harem is in dire straits and has no choice but to hide. After retreating and hiding, the queen has to leave the palace. That's it, it's better to be an ordinary woman.

The Gu family's road repair brigade has expanded again, almost taking out the labor force in several villages around Chang'an. Those who can work hard come here to build roads. Anyway, the Gu family pays a lot of money. Master Gu is famous for his generosity. Which one of the civilian husbands who went to sea came back and built a new house and married a wife. Just for the quota of sea trade civilian husbands, the people around are fighting to get a quota.

The news spread like wildfire that the rewards for road repairs are still high, and many people come to sign up every day.

Li Zhi looked at this scene and said to Gu Qing, "This is the employment you mentioned? And labor."

"People can't always face the loess and their backs to the sky. I just gave them an extra choice. In fact, there has always been a surplus of civilian labor. Many people can't find anything to do except farming, even if they have something to do The remuneration is only so small, and the expanded employment rate will make the people richer, and only when these people are rich, then Datang will be truly rich."

"For a long time, the rich and powerful have held most of the wealth, which has led to a large gap between the rich and the poor in many places. This is a big drawback. Although it is not visible on weekdays, it can be seen in disasters or some Under special circumstances, this kind of disadvantage will be magnified infinitely, so that people have to make a choice to risk their lives. In fact, what the people want is very simple, they just want to have enough food and clothing.”

"It seems that my money has been spent, but the total amount of money remains the same. People sell a lot of things from my Gu family, so the money will flow back."

The thousand and first chapter is still an infrastructure maniac

Li Zhi nodded, "I understand what you mean. The money is in the hands of the common people and then flows back to you through transactions. It's like after the confluence of water and water, the total amount has not changed. But you underestimated the tax. You still have to pay an extra tax for the money in your hand, but the money you get is actually less.”

"That's why we need to build roads." Gu Qing said.

Gu Qing must have a purpose in building roads, and Li Zhi would never think that Gu Qing spent money for the sake of spending money.
