Chapter 397 Are You Fucking Blind?Take stones as treasures (Part [-])
Chapter 395

Chen Andao returned to the construction site unbelievingly and stayed there himself. He watched Wang Yang specially take out a piece of cement mortar about the size of a palm from the mixed cement mortar and put it on the Next to it is a board that has been prepared.

The handyman beside him carried the wooden board and followed Chen Andao, who had a very complicated expression, out of the palace. However, the imperial guards guarding the palace gate were surprised that this dignified general and master craftsman actually let his younger brother carry a lump of wood. Wet Mui left the palace expressing his puzzlement.

No matter how revered the emperor is, there's no need to flatter like this, right?Besides, this Master Chen doesn't seem to be that kind of brazen sycophant.

Chen Andao ignored those strange eyes, and left in a sedan chair after leaving the palace.And this lump of cement mortar that had been mixed was directly brought back to the mansion by him, and placed in his important study very solemnly, and he even told his confidant servant to keep an eye on this thing, but he was not allowed to move it.

And all night long, Chen Andao slept a little uneasily, until the next morning, when the rooster crowed for the first time, Chen Andao jumped off the bed, and after hurriedly washing up, Came to the study room.

The servant was dozing outside the study room, which had been locked.Chen Andao didn't care too much about his servant's lack of dedication.

He took out the key and opened the door of the study room, walked in, and saw that the lump was still the same as when he left, but the moisture before had evaporated completely.

Now it looks like an inconspicuous stone with a somewhat awkward shape. After all, this thing was manually pushed through this stone slab.

Chen Andao took a deep breath, but he still remembered Wang Yang's special confession after he left. "Wait until tomorrow morning, it will almost be solidified and dry, and then you will know whether it is really what the official said..."

"If this thing can really live up to what Wang Wushan said, then we, the Song Dynasty, will have another powerful weapon for building cities against the barbarians in the north..." As a third-rank official of the Song Dynasty, Chen Andao has more than just things to consider. The cost of this item.

At the same time, the purpose of this thing was also taken into consideration. Although this kind of cement may not be able to bond books, calligraphy and paintings, and window paper like glutinous rice, even if its purpose is only to bond buildings such as masonry.

But the problem is that its cost is absolutely outrageously low. You must know that glutinous rice is more expensive than rice, and it costs about three hundred cash per stone.

That is to say, for a consistent three hundred coins, you can get one stone of glutinous rice, but for a consistent three hundred coins, you can get two thousand kilograms of cement, and every two kilograms of cement can achieve the binding strength of one liter of glutinous rice, and two kilograms of cement is only more than one penny. A little, but a liter of glutinous rice costs thirteen cash.

"Sir, what are you..." Seeing that Chen Andao had been staring at the pile of stuff in the style of the study since he entered the study, with a very complicated expression, the confidant could not help but remind him in a low voice.

"You said, can this thing really be as hard as a stone?" After Chen Andao asked subconsciously, he couldn't help smiling when he saw the servant who was stunned after hearing this question.

He waved his hand to signal him to stay where he was, while Chen Andao came to the thing. The more he looked at it carefully, the more he felt that the thing looked like a rock.

Yesterday, it was still a sticky lump, but now, when Chen Andao poked it with his finger, he could feel it. Its texture and weight were almost the same as a stone of the same size.

And copying this thing, took it to the door, and threw it on the open space outside the study room. It didn't mean to shatter it at all, but to dent the ground.

After picking it up again, Chen Andao's breathing suddenly became much heavier. Even though he had seen the concrete flat yesterday, he still seemed very excited at the moment, after all, it was done by him.

Watching this thing go from being a sticky mess to being rock solid.

And the servant next to him watched in bewilderment as his master copied the thing, poked and pressed it, and now he took it directly outside the door and threw it to play, and then picked it up with a face of surprise. It's like the watchdog just picked up a meaty bone.

Well, even if this metaphor is not appropriate, it is the truth.

"Okay, what a Wang Wushan... First there was Yuanyou printing, and then there was Yuanyou cement. This man is really a good talent for me in the Song Dynasty." Holding the solid cement component, Chen Andao was really helpless. Enough to say.

#####
During the morning meeting, Chen Andao was holding a small package in his hand. His colleagues around him asked curious questions, but this guy kept smiling and refused to answer directly.I just want to tell everyone that this is an incredible treasure, one that is prepared to be presented to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

For his statement, most people only know that this guy is bragging.What kind of baby can you have as a general prisoner?

It depends on the weight of the heavy cushion, maybe you can pick up a uniquely shaped stone or meteorite as an auspicious omen.

Soon, the Son of Heaven and the Empress Dowager entered the hall, and after the court meeting officially started, Chen Andao was the first to rush out. "I respect Your Majesty, I respect Your Majesty...Today I will be the Commander of the Supervisory School Office, Lord Wang, and I have invented another amazing treasure."

"...Who?" As usual, Zhao Xu just sat down and picked up the teacup in front of him. Hearing the name, he couldn't help but tremble slightly in his heart, but he soon came back to it and breathed a sigh of relief. Damn, luckily it wasn't That guy caused trouble again, but invented the baby again?

"Then what treasure has Wang Yang invented that makes you, a great craftsman, so excited?" Zhu Guangting said in a playful tone. "Master Chen, don't forget that we are all important ministers of the country, and we are here to discuss the country's major affairs."

"If it's an inconspicuous gadget, just wait until after the court meeting is over and present it to Your Majesty and Your Majesty as an auspicious sign."

"Master Zhu, the function of this thing is definitely related to the state affairs of our Great Song Dynasty, and it has a lot to do with the defense and defense of our Great Song's border..." Chen Andao gave Zhu Guangting a hard look.

Ever since the incident of public urination and defecation became the laughing stock of everyone, Zhu Guangting had never liked the general prisoner, and he would definitely jump out and fight him if he had the chance.

"Chen Qing's family, what exactly is it? Let the Ai family also open their eyes." Gao Taotao ignored the dispute between the two, and she was not only interested in Wang Yang, a young man who was always looking for a sense of existence. A genius, and more importantly, this guy can invent something that is of great benefit to the country and the people.

"This is it, Yuanyou Cement..." After Chen Andao unpacked the cement component, he looked forward respectfully.

"..." Everyone looked at the stone with black lines, which looked like a random stone picked up in the wilderness.

Are you fucking teasing the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty?The promised treasure is just a stone. Believe it or not, I can pick up 100 yuan a day?
