Datang: An eight-year-old master of the bar, he gave everyone a blow at the beginning

Chapter 306 Yuchi Huan's Cement Quality Is Too Good, Shocking Civil and Military Officials

A stone of cement that Yuchihuan paid tribute to was mixed by Taiji Palace craftsmen before the wall was built.

These craftsmen scoff at cement, they do not believe that cement can replace glutinous rice pulp!

Glutinous rice pulp has always been the main adhesive used by ancient craftsmen to build city walls!

The ancient Great Wall was also made of glutinous rice paste.

The craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty also used a lot of glutinous rice paste when repairing Chang'an City and Taiji Palace.

Subconsciously, everyone in Datang believed that glutinous rice paste must be used for masonry!
The top craftsmen of these palaces are no exception.

But Li Er was staring at the side. These craftsmen didn't dare to be sloppy, so they had to think of the cement slurry as glutinous rice slurry to build the wall.

Otherwise they have no way to start.

Half an hour later, a damaged city wall two meters high and one meter wide was repaired!
"Your Majesty, let's look at the concrete city wall again tomorrow!"

Wang Gonggong was surprised and delighted, and immediately remonstrated with Li Er.

Li Er nodded and said: "Then I will come to inspect tomorrow and set up the study room!"

"Yes!" Wang Gonggong immediately followed Li Er back to the imperial study.

The city wall built with cement is temporarily guarded by Habayashi guards, and no one is allowed to come and destroy it.

This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people.

In Li Er's eyes, cement is no less important than potatoes.

……

Tai Chi Palace, three provinces and six divisions!

The news of Yuchihuan's tribute to the cement soon spread throughout the Taiji Palace, and even the civil and military officials in the three provinces and six ministries knew about it.

This immediately aroused the interest of Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Cheng Yaojin, and Qin Qiong.

That afternoon, Cheng Yaojin, Changsun Wuji, and Wei Zheng, a group of relatives of princes and princes, formed a team to face the saint in Ganlu Hall.

Li Er knew what Changsun Wuji and the others were thinking, so he took them to visit the cement wall!
After two hours of solidification, the cement slurry has bonded the bricks together very firmly.

Cheng Yaojin gently pulled out the top blue brick, but failed.

"Haha... Unexpectedly, the cement slurry invented by Yuchi's little governor is more viscous than glutinous rice slurry!"

Cheng Yaojin was full of praise for the cement wall.

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and the others followed suit by pulling out the blue bricks on the concrete wall.

The result was the same, the blue bricks stuck tightly to the bottom, and they couldn't pull them out at all.

Cheng Yaojin urged Wei Zheng and the others to hit the concrete wall with a hoe.

Wei Zheng didn't know where to find a hoe, and was going to loosen the soil for the concrete wall.

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and the others also cheered Wei Zheng up.

At the critical moment, Li Er ran out of the imperial study to stop it!
"Wei Zheng stop now!"

Li Er walked up to Wei Zheng with a livid face, snorted coldly and said, "What are you trying to do?"

Wei Zheng said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, Cheng Zhijie asked Wei Chen to take a guy to test the strength of the concrete wall!"

Li Er snatched Wei Zheng's hoe, Long Yan said angrily: "Wei Zheng, Cheng Zhijie, you are trying to damage Xiao Yuchi's tribute, you two will lose this month's salary!"

"Wei Chen is guilty!"

Wei Zheng and Cheng Yaojin immediately admitted their mistake to Li Er.

"Little Yuchi said that the cement wall will take a day to solidify, everyone, let's look at the cement wall again at this time tomorrow!"

Li Er did not continue to pursue the audacity of Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng.

However, their behavior of pulling out bricks is no longer tolerated.

This time, fortunately, Eunuch Wang informed Li Er in time!

Otherwise, the concrete wall would have been smashed by Wei Zheng with a hoe.

"Wei Chen retire!"

Wei Zheng took the opportunity to slip away.

Cheng Yaojin, Changsun Wuji, and Fang Xuanling also failed in the end.

Li Er waited until the civil and military officials had left before giving an order to Yulin Wei. Without his order, no one could get close to the cement wall.

……

At noon the next day, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, and Cheng Yaojin came to Ganlu Hall to toss the concrete walls after they had eaten their fill.

This time, there were 200 civil and military officials who came to Ganlu Hall to visit the cement wall.

When they came to the garden behind Ganlu Hall, they pulled green bricks to play.

Cheng Yaojin found a stone from nowhere and smashed it against the cement wall.

As a result, the cement wall remained untouched and unharmed!

Cheng Yaojin was exhausted and paralyzed in the tunnel: "My God, these concrete walls are indeed stronger than city walls made of glutinous rice paste!"

Wei Zheng echoed: "Unexpectedly, the cement invented by Yuchihuan can really replace glutinous rice paste in building walls!"

Changsun Wuji pulled out the green bricks until his fingers peeled off. He was sweating profusely and said dejectedly, "This cement wall is harder than stone, I won't play anymore!"

The civil and military officials who came to visit the cement wall echoed Changsun Wuji's words, and they couldn't move their fingers when they pulled out the blue bricks.

Li Er stood aside to watch the excitement, and he then ordered Qin Qiong to hit the concrete wall with a steel whip.

Bang!
Qin Qiong slammed the steel whip against the concrete wall, and the steel whip suddenly bent. He couldn't laugh or cry: "Your Majesty, this concrete wall is invulnerable. It can indeed replace glutinous rice paste to build the Great Wall and cities!"

Cheng Yaojin echoed Qin Qiong and said: "Qin Shubao is right, this cement wall is stronger than a brick wall made of glutinous rice paste!"

Changsun Wuji nodded approvingly and said, "It takes half a month for a wall made of glutinous rice paste to completely solidify. Cement paste is indeed better than glutinous rice paste!"

"What you dear friends say is true, and I think so too!"

Li Er was in a good mood, and he was full of praise for the cement that Yuchihuan paid tribute to.

Yan Lide, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, smiled and said, "Your Majesty, since cement is better than glutinous rice pulp, let Yuchihuan hand over the cement formula to the general supervisor to make cement, so as to benefit the common people all over the world!"

"Yan Lide, Xiao Yuchi has already given me the cement formula!"

Li Er stood up straight, and said vigorously: "Yan Lide, from today onwards, the supervisor of your Ministry of Industry will be in charge of making cement!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Yan Lide accepted the order without hesitation.

Li Er then ordered Wang Gonggong to copy a cement formula to the Ministry of Industry as the supervisor.

The boiler design drawings for making cement were also sent to the Ministry of Industry for supervision.

Yan Lide hurriedly left Ganlu Temple after receiving the cement formula and boiler design drawings.

If there is no accident, qualified cement can be produced after two days as a supervisor.

Li Er has high hopes for the Ministry of Industry.

Cheng Yaojin, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and the others also left the Ganlu Hall and returned to the six departments of the three provinces to take their positions.

In the afternoon, Empress Changsun also came to visit the cement wall. She was full of praise for the cement invented by Yuchihuan.

Princess Changshan was unwilling to leave when she came to the concrete wall of Ganlu Hall. She reluctantly waved her little hand to say goodbye to the concrete wall until it was dark.

In the end, Li Er stayed with Princess Changshan for dinner in Ganlu Hall.

Princess Changshan asked Li Er to use cement to repair her Changle Palace when she was full!

Li Er fully agreed!

Princess Changshan finally bid farewell to Li Er cheerfully, and returned to Changle Palace for bed.

Prince Li Chengqian of the East Palace learned that Li Er was going to help Princess Changshan restore the Changle Palace, so he also sent someone to spread the word to restore the East Palace.

But Li Er rejected Li Chengqian's request!

As a result, Li Chengqian, the prince of the East Palace, became more resentful towards Yuchi Huan.

Yuchihuan recently helped Li Er earn hundreds of thousands of Kaiyuan Tongbao. Princess Changshan is Yuchihuan's fiancee!

Li Er treats Princess Changshan better, that's what he should.

At least Li Er thinks so, because wool comes from sheep!
Li Chengqian wants to restore the East Palace without taking a penny out of his hands, but Li Ertie has a cock, how could he agree?
