My intention is to repair these roads, make them wide and flat, and pave them. Once the roads are repaired, the people can leave their original places.

Whether doing business or traveling for work, things will be much more convenient. Furthermore, if war breaks out in any region, it will greatly facilitate the marching of our Ming army.

After Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, Yang Pu spoke up:

"Your Highness, I understand what you mean by repairing the official road. However, I don't quite understand what you mean by paving the road. How can the road be paved?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yunwen smiled, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and muttered to himself with a hint of smugness:

"Finally, can I use the advanced knowledge I accumulated before I transmigrated?"

Then, he said smugly:

"This hardening naturally involves building cement roads."

Yang Shiqi frowned:

What is a cement road?

"Well... you wouldn't understand, but here's what we'll do: pass down the order to prepare some limestone, clay, iron ore powder, gypsum, and a stove!"

After Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, Yang Shiqi immediately ordered someone to do as he said.

At the same time, he said to Zhu Yunwen:

"What does Your Highness need these things for?"

Zhu Yunwen smiled mysteriously:

"I want to create a hydraulic product called cement. Once it's made, it can be mixed with sand and gravel and laid on the ground to create a hard surface."

"We'll use this to build roads all over the country. It will be of immense use to both the nation and its people."
