The Invincible Sixth Prince

Before the Supervisory Yuan officially took action, Yun Zheng issued the sternest warning to those corrupt officials in Shuobei.

He gave these people a chance to confess and be lenient.

If someone commits corruption and bends the law, he or she can go to the Supervisory Yuan to plead guilty within half a month. As long as he honestly explains and returns the proceeds of corruption, he will be given a lighter punishment, and only his personal fault will be held accountable.

In half a month, the Supervisory Yuan will launch a comprehensive inspection of Shuobei. If he is found out at that time, he will be imprisoned directly!

Anyway, he has already given the opportunity.

If those people still have a sense of luck and are found out when the time comes, don't blame them for being cruel.

Of course, if someone could escape the supervision of the Overwatch Council, it was someone else's fault, and he had nothing to say.

Before Tuo Huan arrived in Dingbei, Yun Zheng also took the time to solve the problem of the carriage.

To this end, he specially recruited four skilled carpenters and two blacksmiths to the palace.

Whenever he had nothing to do, he would study the steering structure of the carriage with the carpenters.

The original spring shock absorber has been temporarily abandoned by Yun Zheng and replaced with a simpler steel plate shock absorber. Although the effect is not as good as spring shock absorber, it is worse than nothing.

"I've met His Highness, I've met Madam Zi..."

Yun Zheng brought Ye Zi to the courtyard, and the six of them hurriedly saluted.

"No gift!"

Yunzheng smiled, "I heard that you have made a model of the new carriage?"

"Uh-huh!"

The leader, He Dalian, nodded and opened the cloth beside him excitedly, "Your Highness, please take a look!"

As the linen was uncovered, a new model of four-wheeled carriage appeared in front of Yun Zhenghe.

The model uses large and small wheels, with the front wheels smaller and the rear wheels slightly larger.

As for whether to use this style or a style with four wheels the same size, we can only verify it after a few more carriages are manufactured later.

This model is not too small, just like the children's car in the previous life.

It just so happens that when Yuncang grows up a little, I can give him this as a toy.

While thinking wildly, Yun Zheng enthusiastically pulled Ye Zi forward to check.

Others, he doesn't have much to look at. The main thing is to see whether the steering is flexible.

As long as there is no problem with the steering, you can order people to start building a new carriage.

Yunzheng squatted down and fiddled with it, and found that the steering of the carriage was quite flexible.

Turn the carriage upside down and you can clearly see the steering structure underneath the carriage.

It also seemed to be an improvement on the sketch he had drawn.

"Is this done?"

Seeing the smile on Yunzheng's face, Ye Zi couldn't help but ask expectantly.

"It's basically done."

Yun Zheng had a smile on his face, "However, we have to wait until it is produced and tried before we know how it will be."

There is definitely a big difference between the model and the real thing.

It is not only necessary to test whether the structure is reasonable, but also to test safety.

This is for people to sit on.

"Can this kind of carriage be able to pull more goods?"

Ye Zi asked again.

In her opinion, having two more wheels and making the carriage bigger can carry more goods.

"This... I guess it's quite harsh, right?"

Yun Zheng was a little unsure, "This should depend on whether the road is easy to walk."

The four-wheeled carriage looks more stable. In theory, it should be able to pull more goods if it is larger.

But in terms of passability, a four-wheeled carriage is definitely not as good as a two-wheeled carriage.

Even the official road is not as flat as imagined. When you really walk on it, there are potholes everywhere, too much cargo, and an unstable center of gravity, which may cause it to roll over.

"It seems... too."

Ye Zi suddenly realized.

Yun Zheng thought for a moment and then said to He Da and others: "In this way, you can check the model a few more times to see if there is anything that can be improved. If not, send it to the workshop tomorrow and follow the model. Make it!”

"Yes!"

The six people quickly took orders.

"Tell Xin Sheng later that each of them will be rewarded with ten taels of silver!"

At this time, Yunzheng ordered Ye Zi again.

"Ah."

Ye Zi pursed her lips and smiled.

"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you Madam Zi!"

The six people were very happy and quickly bowed to express their thanks.

Ten taels of silver may not even count to Yun Zheng.

But to them, this is a huge sum of money!

"Okay, keep busy!"

Yun Zheng waved to them, took Ye Zi's hand and left.

After they left the courtyard, Ye Zi whispered: "Are you too casual about giving rewards? How about ten taels of silver?"

Although this amount of money is indeed nothing to Yun Zheng, it should be appreciated in a certain way.

It doesn't matter if six people admire it like this.

But if there were too many people and they were so lavish on the reward, they would not know how much they would spend on the reward alone in a year.

"Ten taels of silver per person is still a lot, isn't it?"

Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "I also plan to reward each of them with one hundred taels of silver when the new carriage is built!"

"what?"

Ye Zi looked at Yunzheng dumbfounded.

I'm sorry, these ten taels of silver are just an appetizer?

"For these people, don't worry about money!"

Yunzheng patted Ye Zi's hand and said with a smile: "These skilled craftsmen are the real treasures! Only with their continuous innovation of various technologies can we stay ahead of others..."

It is said that science and technology are the primary productive forces.

These people are the scientists of this era.

A "strange and obscene skill" brought disaster to the world in the previous life for many years.

The bloody lesson was there, and he would never make such a mistake again.

"Is that so?"

Ye Zi tilted her head and thought for a while, "Okay! Listen to you! Your vision is longer than ours!"

If you think about it carefully, this is not the case.

If it weren't for what Yunzheng and Zhang Xu had created, Shuobei's finances would have collapsed long ago. How could it have persisted until now?

Do you have a long-term vision?

Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled.

It’s not that I have a long-term vision, it’s just that I stand on the shoulders of giants.

After pondering for a moment, Yun Zheng took Ye Zi and sat down in the pavilion again, "Actually, I also plan to set up a technical research institute to recruit various skilled craftsmen. I don't need to do anything, just find ways to improve various technologies! However, I haven't thought about it yet. Okay, where is this technical institute located?"

Not just the Technical Research Institute, he also wanted to establish a new type of school.

Teach the basics of physics, chemistry, and mathematics.

However, only he understands these things.

If you want to teach, only he can do it himself.

But now he simply doesn't have so much time to be a teacher.

So, this is also a problem.

"How about buying a house near the palace?"

Ye Zi suggested: "This way we are closer to the palace. If you have time, you can go and give them some opinions and suggestions."

"This is fine."

Yun Zheng smiled, "However, this Technical Research Institute must focus on protecting our technology from being stolen by people with intentions! I will think about it later and see if there is a more suitable place!"

Ye Zi was about to speak, but suddenly frowned.

"what happened?"

Yunzheng was confused.

"The baby is kicking me in the stomach!"

Ye Zi frowned and stretched out his hand to touch his belly.

"Is this kid disobedient? I'll whip him for you!"

Yunzheng laughed.

"Where are you extending your hands?"

"Am I not helping you teach this little guy a lesson?"

"The child is not there! You just have a weak hand!"

"Nothing!"

"Bah! You are born to be a pervert, and you will be dishonest when you get the chance!"

"You're really good at judging people..."
