After finalizing Yang Er, Wu Zheng went to find Chen Sandao and He Laowu. There is a way from the cottage to Feihu Cave, but it is just a small road. Usually, he can't walk on it and can only carry a basket. Yang Xiaoer walked up the mountain with coal on his back that was the road.
So Wu Zheng asked him to make the road wider and add some railings or something. Otherwise, he would walk the narrow path on the cliff. What if he slipped under his feet
When Wu Zheng found Chen Sandao and He Laowu, the two of them were surprised when they heard that he wanted to build the mountain road. Wu Zheng didn’t know, but they were old people in the cottage, but they had heard of it. Back then, many brothers died in Shenmuzhai to build that road. Today, my uncle again mentioned that he was joking about the lives of the brothers
"Uncle, that road doesn't seem to be of much use! And it's easy to die. Why do we want to build that road?"
When Chen Sandao saw He Laowu speak, he couldn't help but said: "Yeah! Aunt, do you know that in the past, we in Shenmu Village died in order to build that mountain road, but many brothers in the village died, and the brothers finally looked forward to it. There is no need to toss like this on a good day!"
Wu Zheng said: "The purpose of building that road is to build a wharf under Feihu Cave and open up the waterway under the mountain. You also know that although our Shenmuzhai is close to Yuzhou City, let's go to Yuzhou City. The fastest is four or five hours, and it also depends on the weather. It is also common for us to stay in Shiliting when the weather is bad.
But if that waterway is opened up, it will be different. We can arrive at Yuzhou City at the earliest two hours. At that time, the goods produced in our village can be directly shipped to Yuzhou City and sold to various places in Dazhou. , And goods from all parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty may also come to our Shenmuzhai via that waterway.
There is a saying that you have never heard of, that is to build roads if you want to get rich. The mountain roads are too big and we can’t do anything, so we have to find a way on this waterway. "
Chen Sandao nodded and said: "My grandfather's idea is good, but let's not talk about our own mountain road, just the river below the mountain. We have to go to Yuzhou City by boat, but we have to go through four or five miles of rapids. If the problem of this rapids is not solved, the ship will not be able to go!"
Wu Zheng smiled and said, "It's not easy to do? Just blow it up, right?"
"Blow up?" Chen Sandao couldn't help but looked at Wu Zheng in surprise. He seemed to have thought of many ways, but he didn't think of the word bomb. How could there be such a thing in the world? You know that the reef is all hidden in the water. Isn't the piece weighing a thousand catties, there is something in this world that can break it apart
Wu Zheng still smiled and said: "Yes, it is bombed. This will not only save trouble but also be very safe."
"But grandpa, what do we use to blow up? This Lei Gong doesn't listen to us!"
Wu Zheng smiled and said: "What's the matter with Lei Gong? Ask Brother He how he let the entire Jigong Village be beaten by the whole Jigong Village by himself in the first line of the gorge?"
At this time, He Laowu also reacted, with a surprised expression on his face: "Uncle, you mean to use such a big firecracker?"
"What else can it be other than this? Since you could blow up a rim of gorge to kill people last time, why can't we use it to make a way out of the mountain this time?"
He Laowu said, "Then it’s okay. We are mostly red sandstone and greystone along the banks of the river, which are not strong at first. If you use my grandfather’s big firecracker, it won’t be a month’s worth. The road can definitely be repaired."
Wu Zheng said, "Isn’t it because Brother He has experience in firing firecrackers like this? I’ll return to building firecrackers in the future. As for how to explode, I’ll leave it to you. As long as we get this road through, you guys. Look! Once the wealthy businessmen in Luzhou City know that we have the ability to open mountains and rocks, they will definitely ask us to clean up the Yangtze River.
Isn’t it more convenient for them to go down the Yangtze River than to take the mountain road? At that time, our Shenmuzhai will be an important ferry, and it will be difficult to get rich in the future! "
From then on, the villagers of Shenmuzhai could hear thunder every day. At first, everyone was curious to go to the back mountain to look around. They found out that it was He Lao Wu who was setting firecrackers. This is a rare thing. It was this thing that blocked the thousands of troops in Jigong Village in Yixianxia.
Now He Laowu is using this thing to open the mountain in Houshan, how can he not go and see it? But in the end, he was driven far away by Chen Sandao, not for anything else, because his original mood was the same as these people with a curious heart... (End of this chapter)
