Chapter 734 Babel Tower
.
After Yang Jing’s great reason, Shi Fenglai, Han Bei and others’ hearts returned to their positions. This is finally a reasonable thing.
"Your Majesty, if this is the case, then this human being, or the Chinese being said by Your Majesty, is indeed necessary to build..." Han Bei was not afraid of being so scared when he saw the matter saying this. Since it involves the continuation and development of China, the emperor's intention to build this Chinese being is quite high. The higher the intention of doing things, the more righteous it is, and the more legitimate it is to do things. Therefore, he changed his opinion and no longer regarded this matter as such a horrible thing. Instead, when he talked about this matter seriously, the emperor asked him to go outside to promote it.
"Yes, it is indeed necessary to build it. It must not only be built, but it must be built well. It must be built tall and can reflect the strength of our Ming Dynasty and the greatness of our China," said Yang Jingwei.
"I dare to ask Your Majesty, I don't know how big your Majesty plans to build this human altar. If it is large, it will definitely take a lot of things every day, and it may not be completed in several years. I think this is probably difficult to achieve, Your Majesty." Bi Ziyan was still relatively alert and did not applaud because the emperor said it well, but instead provoked the emperor to assassinate it.
"Hahaha, this human altar, I plan to build a monument, and use an extremely tall monument as the carrier for the continuation and inheritance of China. Only in this way can my power be reflected and the matter can be calmed down." Yang Jing said with a smile. What is the Monument of the People's Heroes? Yang Jing can think of it with his eyes closed.
As soon as the emperor said this, everyone almost choked to death. Is it possible that the tall monument is the carrier of the human altar? Perhaps it is a very simple thing in Yang Jing's eyes, but in the eyes of Shi Fenglai, Han Bei and others, this is definitely an incomplete shocking project.
Not only Shi Feng came to Han Bei, but also Bi Ziyan, Yuan Chonghuan, and even Wang Chengen looked at the emperor in amazement. What's wrong with the emperor? He just said that he wanted to find a place for the people to receive worship instead of him. Now he will build an extremely tall monument... Is this possible?
Yang Jingwei was also surprised, why did he say something? His confidants were so surprised?
"………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Ahem..., Your Majesty, do you dare to ask His Majesty that you really want a huge monument to build a human altar?" When Shi Fenglai encountered such a big event, he did not dare to speak easily, so he naturally shut up. Seeing that Shi Fenglai didn't say anything, Han Bei had to stand up and say.
"Yes! I plan to build a huge monument, with the words "Chinese Monument" written in the Chinese monument on it to commemorate those who have contributed to the development and continuation of my Chinese civilization. Anyone who has contributed to the continuation and development of my Chinese, and anyone who has defended my Chinese and fought for my Chinese, is worshipped by all the people of the Ming Dynasty and descendants of China, can worship it." Yang Jing further explained his "monument".
This time, Han Yu was sweating again on his forehead. It was not that the weather was hot or that he was scared just now, but that he was sweating for the emperor's "naiveness". The emperor said lightly, and he wanted a tall monument to build a human altar. The idea was good, but how could this tall monument come to the capital? Han Bei was sure that the emperor had never thought about this problem. Han Bei sighed secretly, this emperor was still a little tender! Not to mention tenderness, but to say that he did not know the sufferings of the people. This emperor is sometimes not omnipotent! This matter is definitely not something that can be done with the next resolution.
"Your Majesty, if you want to build a man's altar, you must be tall, so that you can deserve the effect of gathering people from China. But has your Majesty ever thought about it? How can such a tall monument be transported to the capital? If it is to be built in the city and besides the two altars of heaven and earth, you must have to pass through the city gate. Even if it is knocked down, it is higher than the city gate. Your Majesty, you will never have to demolish the city gate..." Han Bei quickly advised the emperor, and the emperor was really "thinking beautifully" and not considering the actual situation.
"………………………, pass through the city gate?" Yang Jing asked in surprise.
"Yes! Your Majesty, can this monument not pass through the city gate? Your Majesty wants to build it outside the city?
But even if it is built outside the city, transportation is extremely difficult, and I am afraid that it is impossible to pick it from the mountain...
I don’t know how your majesty knows the material of Yangshan stele in Nanjing” Han Bei is rushing to "educate" the emperor.
"Yangshan stele material?" Yang Jie asked.
"Your Majesty, it is the Yangshan stele material, or called Xiaoling stele material, which was dug by my Ming Chengzu to praise the merits of Taizu. This stele material is extremely magnificent. The stele seat is more than five feet high, nine feet wide, and nearly four feet thick. If the stele is included in the stele's forehead and body, it is more than twenty feet high... Your Majesty, how can such a large stele be dug from the mountain? How can it be transported to the capital after being dug? How can it be transported to the capital when it is dug? How can it be transported to the city when it is when it is dug? Such a heavy stele material, even if it is used for ten thousand horses, it is not enough to drag it to the capital. If it is built with the two altars of heaven and earth, what else can it be except for demolishing the city gate?" Han Bei was very knowledgeable and expressed the grandeur of the stele material with data.
"Yes! Your Majesty, although this monument is magnificent, the manpower is always limited. Your Majesty's idea is good, but this monument cannot be excavated at all, and it cannot be transported out after it is excavated, and it cannot be transported into the city after it is transported out. Your Majesty, it is better not to build a monument. It is better to learn from the appearance of the two altars of heaven and earth and build a relatively easier one." Bi Ziyan also said, Yangshan monument material was also very famous in the Ming Dynasty. If a knowledgeable person would have something to do, he would have something to do. When he heard that the emperor wanted to use a monument to build a man's altar, Bi Ziyan also felt that the emperor was joking. If he used a monument, the monument would definitely be quite large. If it was too big, it would not be built, and it would not be built in one or two years. Now the emperor is rushing to find a place to worship him, and there is time to wait for several years.
Shi Fenglai and Yuan Chonghuan also persuaded him that the emperor's idea was indeed a bit unreliable.
"Hahaha..." Yang Jie laughed immediately when everyone kept persuading him not to build a stele, and even persuaded him to use the Yangshan stele material.
A few months later, the emperor was confused by the emperor's laughter. The emperor is not crazy!
"Since you know about the Yangshan stele material, then I will not say more. Han Qing's family, what did this stele be built for back then?" Yang Jing asked with a smile.
"Reported to you, Your Majesty, this stele was only excavated. Later, because the material of the stele was too tall and could not be transported down, it could not be called a stele, but it can only be said to be a stele material... If the original intention of this stele was to praise Taizu's achievements..." Han Bei said immediately. As a cabinet minister, Han Bei still had basic qualities. At least when the emperor asked, he knew what the emperor was talking about.
"Hehe, when I was praising my Taizu's achievements, I used such a high monument. Now that I built the Huaxia Altar. Only when I built this monument higher can I show my power, and only then can I stand the worship of the people of the world and bear the heavy responsibility of continuing China, right?" Yang Jing said with a smile.
Several people almost choked to death. Since the emperor knew that he still said so, he was not crazy. He was taller than the Yangshan stele material? It turned out that the stele material had been shelved for almost two hundred years and had not been used. Could it be that he was digging a larger stele material that could not be used?
"...Your Majesty has dug this stele for a long time. It has been mined for years, transported for several years, and built for several years. I am afraid that it may not be well built in ten years. Your Majesty, this day is not waiting for anyone!
What's more, even if such a heavy stele material is dug out, it may not be able to be able to bear it. Your Majesty, think twice about this!" Bi Ziyan followed and began to pour cold water on the emperor.
Several other people also advised the emperor to think twice.
"hehe
…” Where did the Qing family think? Do you have to dig stone when building a monument? You have to dig a whole piece of it? You have to build it for several years?
Hahaha, speaking of it, even if you can dig out such a whole piece of stele material and transport it to the capital, I am not in the mood to wait that long. Now I will use it immediately. How can I wait for that long? I think this human altar is best to be built within one or two years." Yang Jing said with a smile. The monument that Yang Jing thought of was of course made of concrete, which is fast and easy. That is, a tall building was built and can be put into use soon. It can also promote new building materials, cement and steel. Once a building material such as cement and steel is used on a large scale, the Ming Dynasty will definitely enter another world, a world of steel and cement. In later generations, many people may feel repulsive to reinforced concrete. They say that steel forests are far away from nature. But for Yang Jing now, this steel forest is definitely a symbol of power civilization.
Several people were almost killed by the Emperor's Thunder, and they built a taller stele than the Yangshan stele. Did the emperor really send a god to transport the stele? Several people felt that there was probably no other way to do this except for the help of gods. Thinking of the emperor always claiming to have gods helping him. Perhaps the emperor really had some way to do this... The more he thought about it, the more fantasy,.........
"It is precisely because of the material of Yangshan stele that I remembered to build such a "personal altar, only such a tall stele can set off the strength of my Ming Dynasty and the greatness of China. My ancestors had this heart, but could not fulfill this wish. Today, let me complete it in my hands... No, the stele was built back then to praise the achievements of Taizu, but I wanted to praise the continued achievements of China. This is greater than the merits of each family, and naturally it is higher than this stele..." Yang Jing said happily.
Apart from being stunned, the ministers could only be stunned. After all, the emperor had hysteria, and it was not easy to distinguish between the east, south, west and north. The Yangshan stele materials were twenty or thirty feet tall. Now, a stele that was taller than this is not crazy. What is this? Isn't this crazy? What is this? Isn't this hysteria? "...I dare to ask Your Majesty, how do you plan to build it?" Yuan Chonghuan asked. Yuan Chonghuan didn't believe that the emperor was really crazy. Seeing that the emperor looked clear and clear, he felt that the emperor must have his own ideas, so he asked.
"...This is actually simple. I believe everyone in the Qing family knows this thing, so naturally they have to be built with cement..." Yang Jingai said with a smile.
"Cement?" The ministers were shocked again and remembered that there was such a thing in this world.
"...Your Majesty, although the cement construction is good, it is no different from the rock after it is done. I have never built a monument dozens of feet high with it! Such a monument cannot be built even with cement! If it is to be built, it is afraid that it will be stacked up layer by layer instead of a monument."
Bi Ziyan said that when it comes to cement, everyone’s first impression is the barbarian temple in Liulizhaichang. It is said to be very strong, but that is a house, and the house and the monument are different.
"...Your Majesty, if you build a sealing platform, it is relatively simple or even without cement. It is not difficult to seal the platform with mounds of soil. As long as there are many people, even if you want to build a sealing platform of thirty feet, it doesn't take too long to do this. Moreover, this sealing platform was also used for sacrifices in ancient times. If it was used for worship, it would be just right..." Han Bei said again. Building a sealing platform is relatively simple. There were also records of building a sealing platform in ancient times. This has no technical content. As long as there are many people, you can always get rich.
"...It's like Wansui Mountain behind me?" After hearing Han Bei's words, Yang Gai was the first to think of Wansui Mountain. This Wansui Mountain was piled up with mud in Taiye Pool, which had a bit of a "sealing the Taiwan". Yang Jie hadn't thought of this Wansui Mountain for a long time. Now he suddenly thought of this Wansui Mountain. In this hot summer, he suddenly shivered...
"………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Han Yu looked at the emperor's head shaking like a rattle in surprise, and he was even more confused. What's wrong with the emperor today? Do some inexplicable things...
"I have my own plans to use cement to build such a high monument, but if steel and iron bones are added here, I think this monument can be built. Building a monument with cement can save the hard work of digging the monument and the fatigue of transportation. I think this monument can be built quickly, and it may be done in one or two years..." Yang Jingwei said.
Several people were stunned. The emperor really dared to do it! He actually dared to use cement to build a monument that was dozens of feet high. The emperor went crazy.
"………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Yang Jing said in an unquestionable tone that Yang Jing was still confident in building this monument. Cement had appeared, and cement had already been finished, so it was no longer new to use cement to build buildings. Although steel bars are more difficult to make, it is not impossible to use the smelting level of the Ming Dynasty. During the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, the Yongle Bell was more than seven meters high and was cast in one go, weighing more than forty tons.
The ability to form such a large bell in one go shows the level of metallurgy. Yang Jing has now spent a lot of effort to make steel by exhaustive methods. The level of metallurgy has made great progress. It is not difficult to make ten-meter-long "reinforced bars". With steel bars and cement, isn't this reinforced concrete done? With reinforced concrete, it is not impossible to try to make a tower of 70 meters.
Although the construction cost of this tower must be expensive, Yang Jingwei is willing to try and use money to promote the progress of "heavy industries" such as steel and cement.
Once this monument is built, it will be the "Tower of the Sky" of the Ming Dynasty. It is definitely a great wonder of the Ming Dynasty. It will definitely be of great help to enhance national pride and national identity. In the 17th century, anyone who has reached a man-made building of seventy or eighty meters high will be shocked. It is too high. According to what Yang Jing thought, when the telephone is invented in the future, he will make a few large electric lights on it, and when it comes to night, he will turn on the electricity. This is definitely a "glorious version of Titanium"
The effect of the tower "can absolutely shock everyone in this world. This is definitely a miracle of this era, and it is definitely a more Buddha light tower than the Buddha light tower in Journey to the West. Yang Jie believes that anyone who sees this building must crawl at his feet, which is of great help to conquer foreign tribes. As long as those barbarians who have never seen the world are brought to the "Tiantian Tower" to see it, this is definitely a requirement to be attached, and it is definitely a requirement to be a Chinese.
Shi Fenglai, Han Bei and others were stunned. The emperor was determined to build it. Could it be that the emperor was really allowed to do so? But the emperor was really doing it? This cement and steel bars can really build such a tall building? They were not sure, which was beyond their understanding.
Should we advise the emperor not to do it, or support the emperor? These people are confused, and they are all considered the emperor's confidants. Logically, they all have to support the emperor, but now this matter is really difficult to decide.
"You might as well think about how majestic this thirty-foot tower is once built, it can be called the "Tongtian Tower". When my Daming people see this tower, they will definitely be pleased and surrendered, and they will definitely recognize themselves as my Daming people and are descendants of China. If Di Yi saw this tower, they would be shocked. It has the effect of subduing all directions and has the effect of not fighting and placing people and soldiers. If there are many benefits, can you not think of it?" Yang Jing was immersed in the joy of the "Tongtian Tower" and enlightened his confidants.
Yang Jing's several confidants were still staring at Yang Jing in amazement. Their emperor and what they thought were definitely not on the same level. They always had an insurmountable gap with their own emperors.
"This matter does not need to be kept secret. When you go back, you will immediately spread the matter. The more lively it is, the better it is. Be sure to explain the pros and cons of it and explain the reasons for the construction..."
Yang Jingwei said.
Shi Fenglai and Han Bei walked out in a daze, and no one remembered how they got out.
Yang Jie went out to treat everyone and immediately told Wang Chengen: "Big companion, immediately summon Sun Yuanhua to Beijing and let him come as fast as possible. This time, I am counting on him..." Just now...
The thrill of talent passed, and Yang Jie should face the reality. The "Tongtian Tower" was built, which is indeed an amazing building, but how to build it is definitely a big problem.
Although it is difficult, you can imagine that once it is completed, you will gain something in this matter... Yang Jing became ambitious again, his heart was beating wildly...
Chapter completed!
