Don't make trouble, let's build infrastructure!

All the courtiers above the main hall are not low in righteousness, but Fu Lin is the only one in the heavenly rank. The others can only perceive that someone has been promoted, and at most vaguely perceive that it is the northwest direction, but there is no definite answer.

It is a big event to be promoted to a higher level, the previous tense atmosphere was swept away, and the whispers in the hall sounded again.

"Northwest direction, could it be that it belongs to the Lu family?" someone asked.

"Impossible, impossible. The Lu family has already declined, and none of its members are in important positions. How could there be a birth of a lower class."

"To the northwest of the capital, if it's not Longyou, then it's Lingxi Road. Could it be the Wu family?"

"It's not like, the direction seems to be a bit off. It's not impossible to be in Dunan Road."

"Could it be..." The man made a gesture of his mouth, but he didn't dare to say it.That mouth shape is exactly the word Chu, and the Chu family was a famous family in Dunan Province before becoming emperor, and there are still many relatives scattered all over Dunan Province.

Chu Jun took the teacup, and the aroma of the tribute Dahongpao came over his face, and he lowered his head and took a sip.Although the words of the ministers in the hall were low, they could not escape his ears. All of them were not of good rank, but they were really good at chewing their tongues.

The cabinet members headed by Fu Lin didn't say a word, except Fu Lin who was still kneeling, the others stood with their hands down.

They are all the patriarchs of the major gentry clans, if anyone in the clan can reach the ground level in the near future, they will not be unaware.And among the other four major families, they also have eyes and ears to some extent. Judging from the information they have, there is no one among the five major families who is likely to reach the level of righteousness in the near future.

There was a lot of chatter in the hall and they couldn't figure out why. Chu Jun couldn't bear to chat with them, put down his tea cup and said: "It seems that the ministers and workers are very curious. Who just reached the lower rank of the earth rank. Fu Aiqing's rank is the highest. It's up to you."

Fu Lin cupped his hands.

Chu Jun said again: "Uncle is old, get up and talk."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Fu Lin got up and stood firm.Facing his curious colleagues behind him, he said: "If the old man's perception is correct, the person who was promoted to the lower rank just now is Jinhe Supervisor, Tong Ran."

Fu Lin's tone of voice was unhurried, and he spoke clearly, but many people still felt as if a strong wind had blown, messing up Fu Ge's words.

Tong Ran?

This... how is this possible!

"Uncle is known as the most talented person in Dacheng. I remember that you were already in your 20s when you were promoted to the earth rank?" Chu Jun said.

Fu Lin turned to face Chu Jun, and said, "Return to Your Majesty, I was already thirty at that time."

Chu Jun said in a loud voice: "All the ministers, is there anyone here who was promoted to the earth rank earlier than Mr. Fu? Is there anyone who was promoted to the lower rank of the earth rank at the age of 16?"

Everyone looked around and lowered their heads.

Chu Jun patted the armrest of the imperial seat, stood up, walked around the imperial case and walked to the edge of the imperial steps, saying: "The ones in this hall should be the elites of the Dacheng elites, they should be the ministers of the arm and shoulders, and the pillars of the country! What should be considered is how to make Dacheng stronger and how to make the people live and work in peace and contentment. I hope that every time I see you, your rank will increase, instead of standing still day by day, always thinking about how to suppress talented people A poor boy!"

"Your Majesty calm down, I deserve death for my crimes." The hall fell to its knees.

Chu Jun stared at the people below the steps, flicked his sleeves, and left.

Su Jin hurriedly followed, and the other servants also followed, and everyone kneeling in the hall froze in place.Chu Jun didn't say a word, they were not allowed to get up according to the rules, but... if you took a sneak peek, His Majesty had really left.

"Your Majesty, those grown-ups, do you want to ask them to get up?" Entering the study, Su Jin tentatively asked.

"What's the matter? Didn't you say that the crime deserves death, and I will give them a chance." Chu Jun said.

Su Jin sneaked a glance at him, His Majesty seemed to be angry just now, but his expression didn't seem to be very angry.Not only was he not angry, but he was smiling slightly at all.

"What are you looking at?" Chu Jun's eyes swept away.

"No, no." Su Jin quickly lowered his head.

Tong Ran's Lingtai has never been so upright.

At the beginning of smelting in the new blast furnace, he felt a surge of righteousness.At first it was just a trickle, and gradually the trickle condensed into a vortex, which made his clothes fly.The moment the furnace was turned on, righteousness rushed in like a tsunami,

Tong Ran was still talking to Ke Yang at first, but his mind was too condensed, but the righteousness became more and more turbulent, so Tong Ran had to find a fairly clean open space nearby, sit on the ground, and condense.

When he rectified the Jinhe prison before, there was a lot of righteousness pouring in every day, but after the personnel department was rectified, the speed of righteousness was much slower.

When the new blast furnace was designed, Tong Ran thought that there would be a lot of righteousness pouring in, and he was ready to accept it, but who knew that it was only a small stream, not even as good as a mosquito's leg.

Later, he taught Ke Yang and others to roast coal into coke. Coal is a new type of fuel. He thought there would be righteousness from the road of innovation, but there was still nothing.

He still slandered God for being short-sighted yesterday, but he didn't expect that today he would even get profits.

Tong Ran carefully discerned when he was condensing, most of the righteousness that surged today came from the path of reform and reform, and the capacity was much larger than when he was engaged in farmland water conservancy before. If it was only because of the innovation of smelting tools, there should not be so many talents right.

Could it be...Tong Ran had a flash of inspiration. When he roasted coal into coke, he didn't gain righteousness. Maybe it was because this thing was useless. Today, he used it instead of logs for smelting charcoal. Righteousness came.

The righteousness of the new boiler and the new smelting formula are surging at the same time, and it is no wonder that the righteousness of today's reform and reform is so turbulent.

In addition, these things are all related to Tong Ran's responsibilities, so the righteousness of the road of conscientiousness has also increased a lot, but compared with the former, it is still nothing.

The other is the righteousness from the path of invention and innovation, which is second only to the path of innovation and reform in terms of madness.The new blast furnace is not only an innovation of the old iron-making kiln, but also a new creation, and the use of coke has the figure of coal, a new raw material, and it is not difficult to understand the righteousness of the creation and invention.

Such three paths gathered together and came together, even if Tong Ran was already at the top of the Xuan rank, it would be really laborious to refine it.

The first furnace of molten iron has already been poured out, and Ke Yang and the others are familiar with the next process, so there is no need for Tong Ran to instruct them personally.It's just that Tong Ran has been in meditation for a long time, but there is no movement. Ke Yang and the others are unavoidably worried.

They were also upright when they opened the furnace this time, but what they got was little after all, it was just a few paragraphs of righteous thoughts.Originally, this was also a great happy event, but Tong Ran was too late, and everyone was not in the mood to be happy, and they all worked silently, while paying attention to Tong Ran's situation.

Ke Yang thought for a moment, and called for someone to invite You Yang to come over.

You Yang arrived soon. He is currently a high-ranking Xuan-ranker. Although he cannot fully ascertain Tong Ran's situation, he is much clearer than the others present.

"All the irrelevant people get out." You Yang said, with a gesture of his hand, more than a dozen imperial guards scattered, guarding Tong Ran's side.

You Yang stood beside Tong Ran to protect him.

He probably knew that Tong Ran was currently at the top of the Mysterious Rank, and was only one step away from breaking through. Seeing such vigorous righteousness now, he guessed that he was going to break through.The iron-making process involves armaments, which is a major matter for the country. If Tong Ran really improves on this, the righteousness he will bear today will be extremely huge.

You Yang couldn't tell exactly why, so he could only try his best to protect Tong Ran's safety and ensure that he could advance smoothly.

About two moments later, the righteousness around Tong Ran suddenly rose, and then shrank in an instant.The fluttering clothes fell down, and the turbulent righteousness returned to calm.

Tong Ran opened his eyes, and the person in sight seemed to be much clearer.

"Captain You." Tong Ran got up.

"Master Tong." You Yang cupped his hands. Tong Ran had just finished refining, and there was still some righteousness left in his body. He suddenly found that Tong Ran's aura had already made him tremble, "Congratulations, Master Tong, for being promoted."

Tong Ran raised his palm and made a fist.With a wave of his hand, a ball of righteousness hit the wall directly, and scattered debris fell.

Low grade.You Yang had a conclusion in his mind.Tong Ran already has the ability to condense righteous energy into the essence and hit the target, which is a skill only possessed by people above the ground level.

Ke Yang and others are still in the workshop at this moment because they have to deal with the molten iron that has just come out of the furnace.When Tong Ran got up, their work had just come to an end, and they all listened to You Yang's words.Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, what a distant concept this is, and their inspectors actually have a sense of righteousness!

"Congratulations, Mr. Tong!" Ke Yang took the lead, and all the workers saluted together.

Only then did Tong Ran see them, and asked, "Has the iron been smelted?"

Ke Yang said: "It has been smelted, the quality is very good, and it is harder than the one that was smelted with charcoal before."

Tong Ran nodded: "Pass on my order, all the workers involved in this iron smelting and new blast furnace casting will be rewarded with ten taels of silver."

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of several workers were even more joyful, and they hurriedly bowed down and said: "Thank you for the reward, my lord!"

Along with the news of the silver reward, the news of Tong Ran's promotion spread throughout the mining area.As he walked out, wave after wave of people came to congratulate and thank him.

Since the reform of the labor system, although the rules on the construction site have become stricter, workers can have one day off every ten days, and there are extra subsidies for overtime work. No matter what lifetime system or inheritance system.Guanshi Ke was right, they wouldn't even have enough to eat with these systems in place, Mr. Tong's new system is better!

Tong Ran's prestige among the workers had been rising steadily, and today he was even promoted to a higher rank. When the workers learned about this, they felt that they were honored to be with such a powerful official.

"What about the earth rank! You don't think the prefect of Shanglang Mansion has such a high rank!"

"Not only the magistrate, but even the governor, not everyone has it."

"Our Inspector is too powerful!"

"Yes, my nephew went to the smelting workshop to make iron today. The new boiler is tall and big, but it's powerful and easy to use. He even got a reward of ten taels! I really didn't even dare to think about it before."

"That's it."

Tong Ran also felt in a good mood as he walked past the construction site.

He also ordered people to set up running water mats next to the miners' residential area. Several carts of chicken, duck and fish meat were brought in. The daughters-in-law from the mining area went to the battle to cook together, and the smoke wafted up until nightfall.

Tong Ran has been looking for an opportunity to get in touch with the workers, and this time the opportunity was perfect, so he stayed a little late, and when he returned to the inspector's mansion, it was already past midnight.

He drank some wine in the evening, and his steps were a little unsteady.

"Cub!" Tong Ran shouted while pushing open the door of the main room, and saw the little tiger standing on the bed.

"Zai Zai." Tong Ran smiled and walked over quickly.

"Wow!" The little tiger waved its front paw and slapped away Tong Ran's hand that was reaching out to hold it.

"Cub, hug." Tong Ran squatted down and looked at the little tiger.

As a result, the smell of alcohol became even stronger, and the little tiger got angry when he smelled the smell.Thinking that it had no intention of political affairs after it came to court, it came early to the supervisor's mansion to wait for Tong Ran, but he came back in the middle of the night, not only that, but also smelled of alcohol.

"Wow wow wow!" Get out of here!The little tiger roared.

"Hug, cub." Tong Ran unconsciously let out a sense of righteousness, wrapping the little tiger up gently, and then hugging him up.

The little tiger didn't react in a hurry, but when it thought of resisting, Tong Ran had already hugged it and lay down under the bed, falling asleep happily.
