Princess Changping sat on the wedding couch, rubbing her wedding handkerchief with both hands, showing that she was very nervous at the moment.
Luo Feng walked up to her and sat beside her. He gently grabbed her hand.
Princess Changping's body trembled slightly, and her breathing became heavy. Luo Feng could even hear her heartbeat.
Then, Luo Feng lifted her veil.
A beautiful face with a shy smile entered his sight.
It was so f * cking beautiful.
Luo Feng pulled her into his arms.
"You are the most incredible man in the world, and you are also the savior of our Big Ming. It is my blessing to be able to marry you. Of course I am happy.”
Changping rested her head on Luo Feng's shoulder, her words filled with happiness and admiration.
"Then do you know what we should do next?”
Luo Feng chuckled, his eyes filled with ill intentions.
"I heard from the palace's nanny that I know a thing or two. I only hope that you can be gentler with the horse. After all, this is my first time.”
Changping said softly, his face turning red like the clouds in the sky.
" Don't worry, I'll make sure you become the happiest woman in the world tonight. Hahaha!"
Luo Feng laughed out loud. With a flick of his sleeve, he extinguished the red candle beside the bed.
Chongzhen had ordered Yuan Chonghuan to transport the 40 million taels of silver seized from the Qing Kingdom to the capital to enrich his treasury.
The opportunity to earn money had arrived again.
Luo Feng headed to the helipad in the backyard and took a helicopter to the palace.
The helicopter stopped at the Golden Palace Square. When Luo Feng got off the helicopter, Chong Zhen, who had been waiting there for a long time, welcomed him.
"Luo Feng, sorry to disturb your newlywed life. I have an urgent military situation and have no choice but to summon you to buy arms.”
Chong Zhen greeted Luo Feng with a smile. He was very polite to Luo Feng, as if Luo Feng was his father-in-law.
"With me here, the sky won't collapse. Emperor, tell me what happened.”
Luo Feng didn't think much of it. He lit a cigarette and started smoking leisurely.
"It's like this. Sun Chuanting from Shaanxi has sent back a battle report saying that Li Zicheng, the intruder, has already broken through Tongguan. Now, Shaanxi and Henan provinces have both been occupied by the intruder. The intruder claims to have gathered a million troops and is preparing to attack the capital.”
Chong Zhen looked worried. He seemed to have been shocked by the "million-strong army".
Luo Feng said disapprovingly.
"I thought so too. I was prepared to send reinforcements to reinforce Sun Chuanting, but the bandits have too many soldiers, more than ten times more than Slave Jian. It is not enough to send a few thousand people.”
Chong Zhen's expression was solemn.
"I understand now. The emperor felt that with so many people being transported to Henan, it was not enough to rely on transport planes, so he came to find me.”
Luo Feng was so smart that he saw through Chongzhen's thoughts at a glance.
"Yes, yes, yes. That's what I mean. Not only soldiers, but also grain. Transportation planes are definitely not enough. I just want to ask, Luo Feng, do you have any more powerful transportation tools?”
"Of course. If Your Majesty is willing, I can build a railway for you. It will take a few hours at most from the capital to Henan, and it can transport thousands of soldiers at a time. Ten times a day, your tens of thousands of Guanning soldiers will be easily transferred to the Henan frontline.”
That was the construction of a railway. Forget about the high-speed rail, even if it was an ordinary railway, it would cost at least tens of millions of taels of silver. If converted to RMB, it would cost billions.
This was much more profitable than selling weapons or even airplanes.
"Railroad? Using iron to repair the road?"
Chong Zhen was stunned again. He had never heard of this new term before and was at a loss.
"A railway is not a road made of iron. It's a track made of two rails. Then, a locomotive will pull the carriage on it, so it's called a railway.”
Luo Feng explained patiently.
Chong Zhen was still confused. What locomotive? What railway? He didn't understand at all.
"Forget it, even if I say too much, you won't understand, emperor. You just have to believe me. When have I ever fooled you?”
Luo Feng waved his hand impatiently.
"Alright, this one will definitely believe you. Then how much money will you need to build this railway for this one?”
"Twenty million taels?"
Chong Zhen was shocked.
