God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

"But, why punch holes?"

"Of course the drilling is for the pillars. Let me ask you, how long did it take to erect a pillar when you built the house before?" Du He asked rhetorically.

A craftsman said seriously: "Qi county magistrate, a pillar needs [-] craftsmen, half a day's time, the main reason is that the pillar must be buried deep, shallow will not be stable."

Hearing this, Du He pointed to the drill bit of the punching machine and said, "Now, half an hour is enough!"

"what?"

"how is this possible?"

"Half an hour, absolutely impossible!"

"Although this punching machine can punch holes, the hole is too small to fit the pillars. The pillars of the house are much thicker than this. The punching machine needs to be punched back and forth several times!"

The crowd gathered around and expressed their disbelief.

Du He said with a smile: "Nothing is impossible. Who said that it needs to be punched several times, one punch is enough. You two work harder, you haven't eaten."

Changsun Hongcong and Hou Yi exchanged glances before speeding up.

Not long after, the iron drill bit had completely submerged into the ground, and the hole it made was about half waist deep.

Du He commanded Sun Hong to rotate the wheel in the opposite direction to Hou Yi, and the drill bit slowly rose until it was completely exposed to the ground.

With a wave of his hand, Du He asked someone to push the punching machine away, and said to everyone: "Everyone, next, it's time to witness the miracle."

……

Chapter 680 How is it possible

Everyone gathered around, wanting to see what miracle would happen.

Under Du He's signal, Lu Yuan directed a few craftsmen to bring some bamboo tube-like things.

Then, a full five were stuffed into the hole, buried with soil, tamped, and a lead wire flowed out.

Lu Yuan picked up the torch and stepped forward, lighting the fuse.

rustle rustle.

There was a sound, and a puff of blue smoke came out.

Everyone was dumbfounded, they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the Duhe gourd.

But Du He and Lu Yuan turned around and ran away.

The two just ran out a dozen steps.

boom.

There was a huge bang.

The ground trembled.

The scene was a mess, flying sand and rocks, and smoke and dust everywhere.

Changsun Hongcong and others gathered around the hole, but at this moment they were all shrouded in smoke and dust.

After a while, the smoke dissipated.

Du He's eyes widened, and he saw Changsun Hong falling from the heads of the others. These guys were all standing there in a daze, as if they didn't know what was going on. was blasted.

"Mother..."

Someone actually cried.

At this time, Lu Yuan pointed at the feet of the crowd and shouted, "Master, it's a success, it's a success..."

Everyone heard the words and looked around, and saw that the hole that was originally as thick as the mouth of the bowl was blown open, and a big pit as deep as a person appeared.

Such a big pit is enough to bury the pillars.

The big pit that originally took seven or eight craftsmen to dig out in an hour can now be done in the blink of an eye.

To build a house, you only need ten such pits at most, and you can bury the pillars.

"In the world, there are such things, it is really a long experience!"

"This is explosives!"

"It's the first time I've seen it!"

The crowd was amazed.

Before everyone could react, Du He said: "Everyone, move immediately, group according to the list, and start working!"

He held a piece of paper in his hand, and on it was a list of group work.

Lu Yuan took the list and began to arrange it.

Everyone gathered together one after another and began to work according to Lu Yuan's command.

Some people drilled holes, some blasted, some buried pillars...they were very busy.

Changsun Hong was in the crowd, and wanted to fish in troubled waters, but Lu Yuan arranged for him to lift mud. Twenty or so people stood in a line, and the distance between each person was only three or two steps. The first one to lift it up , handed it to the second person, the third person, and passed it on in turn. It was completely an assembly line operation. Changsun Hongcong stood in the middle, even if she wanted to be lazy, she could only grit her teeth and work...

Except for lunch at noon and the time to go to the latrine, everyone has no time to rest.

Chang Sun Hongcong was not the only one who wanted to be lazy.

But when everyone saw that Du He was busy and never idle, even doing more than everyone else, they silently shut up.

He is the son of the prime minister, or the county magistrate of Huyi. In terms of status and status, he is higher than anyone present, and he still has a lot of fun doing it.

For those who don't want to do it, look at Dai Jinyun hanging from the willow tree. This kid has been whipped for a whole day, and he could shout at the beginning, but now his voice is hoarse, and he can only hear whimpering. It's too miserable.

In the afternoon, the framework of the five dormitories was finally set up.

Each dormitory has eight rooms, each room can accommodate four people, and a total of 160 people can be accommodated. The entire county government, not counting Du He, Ma Zhou, etc., only has more than 130 people, and there is still more.

Seeing that the framework had been set up, Du He asked everyone to rest for a while.

The craftsmen said one after another: "Ah, this is a miracle. It used to take seven or eight days to build it, but now it is done in half a day. The county magistrate did not lie to everyone!"

"The pillars and girders have been set up, but the other parts are really time-consuming. I can't let me wait to live in such a house. There is a wind and rain that can't stand it, and it will suffer at night." no..."

"Yeah, what's the difference between living like this and living in the wilderness?"
