Liu Xie burst into laughter and then felt a little proud again.

It is a great achievement to give a woman the opportunity to express her desire to be a marquis, and it is based on the skills of a craftsman like building a bridge, not on her own beauty.

If it weren't for his advocating equality between men and women, such a thing would have never happened.

"Tell me in detail." Liu Xie said: "If it is really feasible, Huang Dajiang doesn't pay the money, I will ask the Shaofu to pay the money to help you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhen Mi was overjoyed and pulled out a roll of drawings from the leather bag on her waist. "Please look at your Majesty, this is a sketch I drew..."

Liu Xie and Zhen Mi stood side by side, and they only took a look and knew the result.

Zhen Mi's plan is theoretically feasible but not technically.

She does not have that kind of construction technology, nor does she have that kind of engineering materials.

Creativity is good, it is too difficult to implement, or even impossible to achieve.

But he didn't say it, just listened quietly to Zhen Mi.

Because he knew that even if this plan was not possible to be implemented for the time being, proposing this plan is a huge achievement in itself, and the process of verifying this plan can accumulate valuable experience.

No great achievement can be achieved overnight, and it is tried step by step.

Processes are sometimes more valuable than results.

Seeing that Liu Xie was listening seriously, Zhen Mi spoke more smoothly and naturally, her face was filled with a light of confidence, and her already beautiful face looked more youthful and charming and full of vitality.

Liu Xie couldn't help but take a look at him twice.

Zhen Mi was immersed in her own world, not realizing that Liu Xie's mind was no longer on the drawings in her hands.

After saying that, Zhen Mi turned to Liu Xie and looked at Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty?" Zhen Mi looked puzzled, feeling that the emperor's expression was not right.

Liu Xie came back to his senses, his old face turned red, and he quickly said, "Your plan is very innovative and worth a try."

"Really?" Zhen Mi became excited and immediately forgot the doubts she had just now.

"Of course. But if you want to build such a large bridge, it will probably cost a lot, right?"

"Well..." Zhen Mi tilted her head and thought about it. "I have roughly estimated that it will cost ten million yuan."

"Ten millions of dollars are not small amounts. How much does a thousand-member Marquis earn in a year? If something goes wrong and cannot be used when it is built, the loss will be huge."

"Uh..." Zhen Mi looked at Liu Xie in surprise, widened her eyes, and said, "Your Majesty, this... is not the same thing. The money for Jianqiao and the income of Qianhuhou..."

Liu Xie waved his hand. "It's not the same thing, so we have to be more cautious. Otherwise, the court spent 10 million and signed a thousand-house marquis, but in the end the bridge was not used, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

Zhen Mi's eyes darkened, her neat and white teeth lightly bit her plump lips, and said, "What if I raise money to build a bridge and can it be used?"

Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, then laughed. He waved his hand and turned to look into the distance.

Rich people are tough when speaking, and would rather pay tens of millions of dollars to build a bridge than earn this thousand-household marquis.

For the Zhen family in Zhongshan, it is easy to get a thousand gold coins, but it is even more difficult to get a thousand households.

This business is not a loss.

"You made one mistake, not that the court is reluctant to pay, but that it is that it cannot use money like this. I know that your Zhongshan Zhen family has money. If you are willing to pay for the construction of a bridge, the court will not refuse, or even ask for it.

But building a bridge of this size is much more difficult than you think, so you must be careful. After all, even your family’s money cannot be thrown into the water, right?”

Zhen Mi reacted a little.

"Your Majesty... I also think that my idea is not good?"

"No, I think it's feasible, at least worth a try." Liu Xie said: "You just have to be more cautious and not too anxious. I don't know how to build bridges, but I know a little about governing the country, so it's better to do a metaphor for governing the country. You are interested.

Listen?"

"Of course." Zhen Mi blurted out and then said: "It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be able to listen to Your Majesty's argument."

Liu Xie was stunned. "Is it so exaggerated?"

Zhen Mi nodded repeatedly, her eyes were smiling and her face blushed.

Liu Xie smiled and shook his head, not tangling with Zhen Mi anymore.

He knew that he was now known as a saint and was quite popular, especially among young people.

He roughly said his worries.

In fact, whether it is governing the country or building bridges, the principles are similar, and they cannot escape the effect of scale.

Different sizes will bring different difficulties, and this difficulty may be exponential.

The difference between governing a county with a size of 10,000 people and a county with a size of 100,000 people seems to be the same as the difference in governance capabilities, but the difference in governance capabilities is more than the difference in governance capabilities.

Not to mention governing a big country with tens of millions of people.

This is one of the reasons why the theory of governing the country in the Spring and Autumn Period cannot be implemented now.

A larger scale will inevitably bring more problems. To solve these problems, it is impossible to return to the past of small countries and few people. Only by calming down, solving the technical gap between them and constantly trying, can you

It is possible to achieve the final goal.

The same is true for building bridges.

The technical difficulty of building a bridge with a span of ten meters is nothing like building a bridge with a span of twenty meters. Under the current technical conditions, it may be completely impossible to achieve.

It's not enough to enlarge the model.

Zhen Mi is very smart and has a lot of practical experience in the bookstore and martial arts lecture hall, but she has not encountered any problems of this scale, so she will inevitably think things are simple.

In contrast, Huang Chengyan and Huang Yueying and his daughter had much richer experience, and it was obvious at a glance that Zhen Mi’s plan could not be realized.

Liu Xie agreed with their views, but did not agree with their approach.

He thought it would be better to let Zhen Mi try step by step than to directly reject it.

Zhen Mi was very smart and quickly understood what Liu Xie meant.

"I understand your Majesty's concerns a little." Zhen Mi rolled up the drawings. "I should build a slightly larger bridge first, and then build a larger one, rather than directly building a bridge that can cross the river."

"clever."

Zhen Mi felt a little embarrassed to be praised by Liu Xie for such a blunt praise.

"It's Your Majesty's perspective, I'm just looking at it." She thought for a while and said, "No wonder Your Majesty likes to climb high. It turns out that climbing high not only allows people to see far, but also makes people wise."

"You can't just climb high and look far away. You have to be down-to-earth and overcome one difficulty and another, otherwise it will become a discussion." Liu Xie smiled and said, "You should know that I don't like to discuss it."

Zhen Mi thought for a while. "I know, Your Majesty prefers to practice the way. I forgiving you to take the liberty and dare to ask Your Majesty to personally conquer Jizhou, just to save the fields in Jizhou, to practice the kingly way, and to give Shandong people a demonstration?"

Liu Xie was stunned, then nodded again. "Yes." He pondered for a moment and said, "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Zhen Mi turned her eyes and a red cloud appeared on her face. "Your Majesty wants to do the kingly way in Jizhou, so I naturally cannot ask for it. But I heard that the king ruled the world and should be kind and dominate it. I only saw Your Majesty's thunderous wrath, but I didn't see it.
