757: C757 Ye Tian's Conspiracy

C757 Ye Tian's Conspiracy

Due to the reminder of Secretary of State Chen Zhongxiu, Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee had to put in a lot of effort. Not only were the number of construction teams more than half, but every day, they were given a death mission.

What the two of them were most worried about was Ye Tian arranging for people to obstruct the project and then seizing the opportunity to clean the two of them out of the office. If this was really Ye Tian's conspiracy, then the only thing Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee could do was to finish the project as much as possible before Ye Tian took action.

When the powerful engineering team started working on the connection between Shangjing City and the construction team, Duan Mulee soon encountered a problem.

Many of the large engineering equipment owned by these engineering teams did not have the ability to open up mountains and bore bridges. Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee initially thought that it was a little too simple, it was just the construction of a new public road.

However, according to Ye Tian's blueprint, when the construction was completed, the two discovered that the difficulty of this large-scale project was far beyond their initial imagination.

Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee were both panicking. The difficulty was too high and the construction equipment was unable to meet the requirements of drilling and bridge building. Changing the route also went against Ye Tian's blueprint.

In a dilemma, Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee quickly went to Hu Fuzhen to discuss the matter.

After listening to the two people's narration, Hu Fuzhen waved his hand and glared at them: "I say, you two lords, are you two really dumb?" Naturally, the equipment of those small engineering teams would not be able to complete such a huge project. If you want to meet the requirements to open up mountains, drill holes, and build bridges, the equipment in the other areas will not be enough. You must find Royal Labor Union. "

Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee were stunned at the same time. Then Duan Mulee slapped their heads and loudly said, "How could I have forgotten about this? The large equipment in Royal Labor Union are equipped with engines, and are no longer manpower anymore. Only with this kind of equipment can they complete those difficult projects. "

At this time, Hu Fuzhen cracked his lips into a smile, and continued, "Don't blame me for reminding you two that Ruan Ji, that miser, doesn't sell some of the large-scale engineering equipment produced before Royal Labor Union. If you want to use something from Royal Labor Union, you have to rent it. From what I understand, there are already a few merchant guilds in the capital that are working on the project, and they are beginning to rent equipment for Royal Labor Union for a long period of time. "

After hearing Hu Fuzhen's words, Duan Mulee recalled the large-scale engineering equipment that he saw at the construction site in Beijing a few days ago.

Thinking back, Duan Mulee said: "You're talking about those guys, what are they called? Digger? Crane? Bulldozer? Road roller? What else? "Rock cutter?"

Hu Fuzhen nodded and said, "Yes, that's it. Ruan Ji will not sell any of these items. You can only rent one of them. "

"It's better than nothing." Ji Yanwenn said.

Hu Fuzhen said, "The rent isn't cheap."

"So what if it's not cheap? I have plenty of money now. " Ji Yanwenn said with his eyes wide open.

"Hehe, this means that Your Excellency Ye had spent the money from the treasury before he added the account for Imperial Household Department. Ye Zichen looked at the money, then walked back and forth, and finally got into Your Excellency Ye's hands. " Hu Fuzhen laughed as he spoke.

Actually, these large scale engineering machines were the equipment that Ruan Ji produced according to Ye Tian's blueprints after Ye Tian invented the engine.

There weren't that many of these equipment, and because Athens City's production process was very heavy, Ruan Ji didn't have any extra production lines to produce more large scale engineering machinery. Thus, Ruan Ji rented out the part that was already produced and gave Royal Labor Union a bit of pocket money.

However, once these engineering machines were used, they displayed an incomparable power. Whether it was digging, hoisting, digging, or even pressing, digging, or pushing forward, these construction machines were all competent, and completely incomparable to human resources.

Therefore, some of the more powerful Engineering Chamber of Commerce in Beijing lined up to find Ruan Ji, wanting to rent these large engineering machines. Due to the shortage of supplies, the rent had risen exponentially. Now, the daily rent for each machine was several thousand taels of silver.

However, with these machines, they could complete the work that could not be completed even with manpower for several months in an extremely short amount of time. For these chambers of commerce, even if the daily rent was several thousand taels of silver, it would still save a lot of money.

At this moment, Ji Yanwenn stared at Hu Fuzhen, not knowing what this shrewd old man meant. Seeing the confusion on Ji Yanwenn's face, Hu Fuzhen sighed once again and continued, "You two still haven't figured it out? Your Excellency Ye purposefully made you two have to rent large scale construction equipment for your Royal Labor Union in order to finish the construction of the highway within a month. "

"As long as you rent a machine with Royal Labor Union, you will have to pay the corresponding rent according to the procedures. These rents finally returned to Imperial Household Department's account. You two still don't understand? "After going around in a circle with the money, Your Excellency Ye still managed to earn a portion of it back." Hu Fuzhen spoke again.

Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee were enlightened after hearing Hu Fuzhen's words. Maybe this was Ye Tian's conspiracy. In name, all of the silver that flowed out of the treasury, after going around for a while, was taken back in name by Imperial Household Department.

The reason why they were forced to finish the construction within a month was to force them to use the Royal Labor Union's large-scale construction machinery. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to finish the construction.

Thinking of this, Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee also completely understood Ye Tian's intention.

After a slight pause, Ji Yanwenn shook his head and said self-deprecatingly, "Your Excellency Ye is really an interesting person. It's fine if you just say that you want some money, but you still need to make such a big deal out of it."

Duan Mulee smiled and said, "I'm not familiar with you, so how can I collude with you in such shameful matters?"

The two of them laughed.

Hu Fuzhen said: "You two should hurry up and go to Royal Labor Union to rent all these machines. If you let someone else rent them first, you two can only wait."2

Hearing Hu Fuzhen's words, Duan Mulee and Ji Yanwenn both nodded their heads, then turned around and hurriedly walked toward the Royal Labor Union.

After an hour, Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee rented all of Ruan Ji's large-scale construction machinery at a high daily rent of ten thousand taels of silver.

Speaking of which, Ji Yanwenn felt really pained. Each machine cost 10,000 silver a day, and if seven different machines were rented at the same time, it would cost 70,000 silver a day. Although the duration of the project was only one month, it was still slightly more than 2 million taels of silver.

Your Excellency Ye did nothing but rent these machines to earn a net profit of two million silver taels. And after the whole project, Ji Yanwenn and Duan Mulee, at most, only dared to deduct 10 million silver taels.

In any case, the progress of the project was assured.

Coming out of the Royal Labor Union, Ji Yanwenn returned to the Ministry of Tax Administration, preparing to pay the rent first, while Duan Mulee returned to the Ministry Of Industry Administration, arranged for an engineering team, and took over these large scale construction machines.

Because these construction machines needed drivers and control personnel, Ruan Ji rented out the equipment along with the people. After the engineering team arranged by Duan Mulee arrived, they would go to the construction site together with the people and vehicles of Ruan Ji.

The construction of the Jingjin Expressway started like a raging fire. For Ye Tian, the expressway was even more symbolic than it actually was.

Starting from this road, Ye Tian's ambitious plan for social change will officially begin. Ye Tian believed that after the completion of the project, along with the operation of the Freight Truck and bus, just like how a spark would light up a pile of hay, the chain effect would cause many merchants and commoners to push forward the construction of more highways.

After that, in Ye Tian's plan, there would be high speed rail, civil aviation, large-scale magical power transmission network, Developing Stone and sound wave stone, as well as a mainland television broadcasting network constructed with Royal Media Group.

As long as Ye Tian pushed them a little, the rest would naturally have the power of the masses and move forward like the waves of the ocean.

In the Jade Lake West Garden, Ye Tian drank his tea and pondered at the same time. Now the Spring Festival Gala has come to a close. Miao Yinn's Royal Media Group was already on the right track.

Many merchants had long since broken through the gates to the newly established Royal Media Group. The cost of advertising had already risen to a staggering amount, but it was still rising.

Denean's Royal Central Bank had been pulled out by 400 million silver taels in one go, but because the central bank's foundation was very thick, tens of billions of silver taels were enough to ensure the normal operation of the banks everywhere.

The Legal Department had already been established. Chu Yu was so smart that it did not affect any officials who came from the Internal Affairs Bureau or Military Court. Instead, she directly invoked the power of Dark Holy Temple. The current Yeh Hsing could already be considered to be Chu Yu's direct subordinate.

After he finished all these important things, Ye Tian was wondering if he should go to Athens City to take a look.

Honestly speaking, the two little girls, Mei Rou and Bi Ling, were still missed by Ye Tian. As for Xian Di, Yu Loong, and Yeh Rong, Ye Tian felt an itch in his heart.

Before going to the Athens City, Ye Tian still had to pay a visit to someone.

This man was in the palace.

Although she did not have a ruler, and had never meddled in all of Ye Tian and Chu Yue's matters, with such a person in the palace, everyone knew clearly that she was the most powerful person in Shangjing City, and even in the entire East Continent.

When he arrived at the Peace Palace, Ye Tian brought some snacks with him.

The maid accompanied Ye Tian into the palace. Ye Tian looked up and saw Imperial Consort Xi, who was dressed in White Yarn clothes, curled up on a soft couch. She had her eyes closed and looked like she was taking a nap.

Imperial Consort Xi had once been Hua Tianrou's only disciple. They were Master and disciple alike, which wasn't exactly rare. However, the current Imperial Consort Xi, regardless of her expression or appearance, was simply a replica of Hua Tianrou.

Other than the difference in their appearances, the other two were completely the same.

Ye Tian placed the dessert gently on the table. Before he could say anything, Imperial Consort Xi asked, "You're here?"

Nodding, Ye Tian said with a smile, "Coming."

Honestly speaking, both Ye Tian and Chu Yue were very respectful to Imperial Consort Xi. Putting aside the fact that she had just killed her father and her mother, this brand-new Imperial Consort Xi was the strongest almighty being that everyone had ever seen up till now.

With just a wave of his hand, he could easily repel Guang Annzi. Such strength had already far surpassed the standards of Holy Great Mage and Divine Battle Master.
