Take the mall to Datang

It is estimated that it will be repaired from Yuanjia Manor to Wulizhuang Exit.

"Master, if this road is repaired, it will cost a lot of money." Zhou Butler said, he is the butler who has the responsibility to remind the Patriarch of the expenses.

"Benhou Lord announced that the Wulizhuang road construction working group is now established. The two wives are in charge of financial expenditure statistics. Tian Da is responsible for organizing the personnel and material coordination of the engineering team. As the main person in charge, organize the construction team and carry out the construction, the farmland in Sanlizhuang will be cultivated in a unified manner, the labor force will be liberated, and the rent of cattle will be free, and Sanlizhuang will help the construction workers to cultivate and share the planting tasks with priority to use the cattle for free."

After Yuan Shan confessed in this way, everyone in Yuanjia Manor took action quickly.

In the study, Dugu Ruolan and the other girls played the pipa with their abacus. After the final calculation, Dugu Ruolan said: "Husband, based on the cost price of raw materials, the road from the manor to the outside of Zhuangzi will cost at least 150 taels of gold. If it is built together with the road into the village in Zhuangzi, it will cost about 220 taels."

"Okay, let's start to repair." Yuan Shan also started to implement the things that had been decided without ambiguity.

The construction team formed by Sanlizhuang households took over the first order of their own guys. They had already learned the construction requirements and methods of the cement pavement during the training. Unlike ordinary soil road tamping, the cement pavement is usually five meters wide. The thickness of the road is about 20 cm. During construction, the left and right sides need to be clamped with wooden boards, and then concrete mud is poured on the rammed dirt road, and then rolled and flattened with logs when it is full, and then you can enter It is in the maintenance stage, and it can be used after at least [-] days.

There is nothing special about the construction, just want the road surface to be durable. In fact, it is best to lay a large amount of gravel underground on the concrete floor, so that the impact of pressure resistance and ground deformation will be minimized. A gap is cut every other section of the road surface, which can effectively prevent the concrete floor from cracking, which is also a must-do job.

When farming was busy, Yuan Shanzheng organized an engineering team to build roads. 300 people worked in sections. A large amount of cement, sand, and gravel were transported from the back mountain. Road repairs are coming.

A group of 300 people and ten people were divided into [-] sections to start road construction. This road was directly banned. If you want to get to Yuanjia Manor, you can only take the original road on the Zhuangzi. It is also easy to go without heavy rain.

In the past few days, Yuanshan has been patrolling several road sections every day. When he was about to arrive at the manor this morning, he saw Li Dejian staring at a wooden car and walking slowly and carefully.

"Teacher, you can see that the bicycle has been made." Li Dejian said excitedly, but his body was completely crooked and shaking.

"Dejian, be careful, don't fall." Yuan Shan had just finished speaking when he heard "Oh!" As a result, Dejian really fell.

"Dejian, your driving skills are not good enough, you need to practice." Yuan Shan said casually.

"What the teacher said is that when I was in Prince Qin's Mansion before, I used to ride a three-wheeled bicycle, and it's really uncomfortable to change to this two-wheeled one." Li Dejian said.

Yuan Shan looked at the assembled wooden bicycle. The joints were covered with iron sheets, and the wheels were also tied with iron hoops. This bicycle was already much smaller and thicker than the bicycles of later generations.

"Dejian, what do you think of these two-wheeled bicycles, and what needs to be improved." Yuanshan asked.

"Teacher, this wooden wheel still needs to be improved. The current wooden wheel is too hard, and it will make people uncomfortable on bumpy roads. It may be better if some leather is added to the wooden wheel." Li Dejian said

"Dejian, your idea is very good. You can do it according to your idea. You can modify this bicycle at will. The teacher believes that you will be able to make the bicycle better." Yuanshan said happily.

He was thinking that the wisdom of the ancient people seems to be very high, as long as they are willing to provide them with a platform to play, their potential is unlimited.

Just like that Ma Zhou, Chang'an Match could bring in an income of nearly [-] yuan a day, but Ma Zhou actually started a wholesale business, and now his daily income has more than doubled. This is a talent .

"Well, then you can go to work on your work, and you have to practice your cycling skills. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you improve this bicycle." Yuan Shan said.

Although he has not personally experienced the wooden bicycle, he knows from Li Dejian's experience that it must be very good if it is replaced on the concrete floor at the parking lot, but it is not enough. At least it will be better if the rubber wheels made of natural rubber are added. .

It's just that he's not in a hurry about these things, he needs to do the things in front of him first, otherwise, with the current manpower, both left and right can't handle it.

Chapter 145 Who is God

The days of spring plowing are very lively, and Yuanjiazhuang is even more lively.

The 300-person road construction team, and the farmers who completed the farming in Wulizhuang first joined in on their own initiative.

The progress of road construction is very fast. Thirty road sections are going on at the same time. The only problem is that water needs to be watered during maintenance. For this reason, Yuanshan asked Steward Zhou to order a large number of water buckets. The shop ordered a batch.

In order to collect Ye Xiang, he provided a lot of wooden barrels to Lanhe Village, and the price of wooden barrels went up by ten cents all of a sudden.

Enter the intersection of the main road in Wulizhuang.

Yuan Shan stood on the periphery of the repaired road and watched the construction workers making fences. Every other section of the road was blocked by wooden fences, and then connected with several hemp ropes.

These are all carried out at some places at the intersection. As for the road to Zhuangzi, it is different, because the people in Wulizhuang have been informed that they only set up fences on key forks and small roads, and mark them in the form of pictures.

Everyone in Silizhuang knew that Wulizhuang was building a concrete road, and people outside the village couldn't step on it.

The road was built very quickly, but it only needed 30 days of maintenance. For the first ten days, buckets were used to sprinkle water on the road every day. Thousands of buckets were purchased for watering. These things were handed over to Households do it every day, and the construction team starts to plant trees beside the road.

The plants were all transplanted from the back mountain. For these trees, Yuanshan took people around the back mountain for three days before finally deciding to use them as tree stumps for the street, a butterfly-shaped locust tree basically similar to the national pagoda tree. Tree.

Only dozens of them were transplanted in a week, but it still looks a bit abrupt from the outside, but the shape still looks good after pruning.

After the side road was repaired, Yuan Shan began to prepare materials for the dirt road on the village. The original dirt road was repaired last year and now it is twice as wide as before.

Now that cement road can't be used, it can only be taken away, and this dirt road has become the main road in and out of Zhuangzi.

The refineries and warehouses in Houshan have been under construction. The refineries are all supported by concrete pillars built with cement bricks. The height is about five meters and the surrounding area is empty, which is convenient for smoke exhaust. Only the rain protection project was done. The shed is made of wooden planks on wooden beams, and the terracotta tiles fired by the pottery workshop are buckled on it. Regardless of this 500-meter house frame, the cost is not low at all.

The other warehouse was built very quickly. The cement pillars and the wooden frame are very simple. Now it is mainly used to store cement and bricks. There are several houses arranged abnormally, but it is much larger than ordinary houses.

At the Houshan Cement Factory, Yuan Shan and the helpers are making medium-sized cement bricks with a wooden frame. Dry the cement bricks and water them regularly during the maintenance period.

Now there are a lot of medium-sized cement bricks stacked here in Houshan. These are the materials used to lay the original dirt road. They are still in production. There is a lot of time.

"Teacher, you are here. In the past few days, my brother and I have combined wood and iron to make a set of car chains. Please ask the teacher to see how it goes." Li Dejian ran over excitedly and said.

Yuan Shan is now researching and making large cement bricks. He knew it was Li Dejian when he heard the voice. This kid has been out of control since he told him to make him try to improve the bicycle last time. He will come to him every few days to present his latest research results. At the beginning, he was very proud. After several requests and suggestions from him, this Li Dejian is a bit more low-key, but it seems that this also stimulated Li Dejian's enthusiasm for invention. .

Li Dejian brought over a set of wooden models connected by car chains. Yuan Shan took a look at Li Dejian turning the gears on the model, and then the car chains drove the wooden wheels to rotate, which was almost the same as the iron chain.

"It's a good idea. Using iron pieces to connect the wooden chains can save costs. The iron pieces processed by pouring steel and pressing can increase the output of bicycles." Yuan Shan said appreciatively.

"This can be produced in the workshop, first make a bicycle to see the effect." Yuan Shan said.

"Yes, teacher, I'll go right away." Li Dejian was very happy. After many efforts, his improved product was finally approved by the teacher.

As soon as he finished talking here, Caiyi came over in a carriage.

"Master, look at your sweaty head, Caiyi wipes it for you." Caiyi came to Yuanshan's side and immediately took out a handkerchief to help Yuanshan wipe the sweat off his face. It was dirty, but Caiyi really didn't dislike it in the slightest.

"Caiyi, why are you here? What's the matter?" Yuan Shan asked, he knew that Caiyi came here at this time either someone was looking for him or there was something wrong.

"Treasurer Xiao of Jubao Pavilion, please see me." Caiyi responded immediately.

"Shopkeeper Xiao, Xiao Yun, isn't he a member of King Qin? Why did he come to the manor?" Yuan Shan muttered.

Then he followed Caiyi to the living room.

"Shopkeeper Xiao, long time no see, I've kept you waiting." Yuan Shan said directly after entering.

"It's been a long time, little Houye, but he's still as hospitable. Xiao came here today to discuss a business with Houye." Xiao Yun said.

"Oh, what business is Shopkeeper Xiao talking about?" Yuan Shan asked.

"It's like this. Prince Qin's mansion is going to build a pool in the courtyard. Recently, I heard that Hou Ye's family has a team of craftsmen dedicated to building it. If it doesn't happen, Xiao will come over and ask if he can take over the guy who built the pool." Xiao Yun said.

"Shopkeeper Xiao is quite well-informed, but my construction team can only use materials such as cement and bricks for simple construction, and is not good at difficult projects such as repairing garden pools." Yuan Shan said frankly.

It's not that he doesn't want to pick up this guy, but when he thinks about King Qin being involved, and the fact that this team really only knows how to stack bricks, it's completely incompatible with the current architectural style. It's almost the same as building a swimming pool, so he just confessed.
