Chapter 43

It really is both large and sturdy, just like my own house!

Moreover, to build such a large house in just 3 to 5 days, what a rapid pace!

Yes, like my house, it took a whole month to build! But it still doesnt seem to compare to this one!

This cement is truly a miracle for construction! Such a great thing!

Everyone exclaimed in amazement.

Not only that!

Heshen exclaimed, This cement works wonders in construction. By extension, it can also be used in building dams, city walls, roads, and so on, with even better results!

Yes, thats true, how come I never thought of that!

What the official says is very true!

Building houses is so fast. The speed of repairing the city walls must be incredibly quick too!

What a marvelous thing indeed!

The most crucial point is that this cement was actually invented by His Majesty!

Heshen looked at Lin Beifan with frenzied and admiring eyes, This proves that His Majesty is the true Son of Destiny, a sage king for all ages. Thus, he received divine guidance to invent the nation-stabilizing divine artifact, cement! With such a sage king, our Xia Kingdom will surely soar rapidly, rise to prominence, awe all directions, endure through the ages, and continue unbroken for eternity!

The others shouted in unison: With such a sage king, our Xia Kingdom will surely soar rapidly, rise to prominence, awe all directions, endure through the ages, and continue unbroken for eternity!

Heshen then exclaimed: Long live His Majesty!

Others followed with high praises: Long live the Emperor!

Wouldnt we be at a loss?

Shouldnt we raise the price a bit more?

Lin Beifan shook his head: Actually, theres hardly any cost involved! This land is mine, so it doesnt cost a penny! The cement for building the houses and the raw materials are dug right out from the mountain next door, so that doesnt cost much either! As for labor, these workers were pulled from the miners, whose wages had already been paid! So all in all, building a house like this is very cheap!

Everyone nodded in agreement, indeed it didnt cost much.

Selling it a bit cheaper can also be considered a benefit I give to the people!

Heshen slapped on a flattering compliment with ease: Your Majesty is truly a sage of the ages, unparalleled in benevolence!

The crowd voiced in unison: His Majesty truly deserves to be called a sage of the ages, unparalleled in benevolence!

Lin Beifan once again laughed proudly: Haha

After laughing, Lin Beifan spread out a map and said, The Capital City is too small to accommodate so many people! Therefore, I plan to develop a new city next to the Capital City, using cement to build houses and roads, allowing the people to live and work in peace and contentment! This is the planning map Ive been working on all night. Take a look and see what you think?

Everyone looked over and collectively gasped in astonishment.

The map showed houses neatly lined up, wide and tidy streets, and towering, majestic city walls

This was not just the development of a new city!

It was clearly the construction of an imperial city!

Your Majesty, can this really be done?

Why not? Success depends on our efforts! As long as we give it our all, we will succeed one day! Lin Beifan said with a laugh, his heart brimming with confidence.
