This is not the Datang I am familiar with

Wu Meiniang pulled Yiyang, and Li Zhi naturally pulled Chen Fang.

At this time, the rain was clear, and Chen Fang also saw the slightly stretched brows of the Second Saint.

"Chen Fang, specially asked Tao Hong to invite us to the palace. After all, there are new things in the workshop."

"My empress, Lan Xinhui, is very intelligent, but she is right."

Wu Meiniang smiled, she was used to Chen Fang's mouth, but she was not used to not complimenting her when she spoke.

Chen Fang led the way to the workshop. At this time, the floor of a room in the workshop had been treated, and the concrete outside had been prepared.

The second sage arrived, and Chen Fang directed Feng Wei, who had taken off his military uniform, to pour concrete into the room. The second sage didn't know why, but he watched carefully.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is a new product from the workshop. It is called concrete. It is in a slurry state at this time. When it dries, it can be compared to a solid stone. It cannot be broken by sharp arrows, and only a white mark will be left when it is cut with a knife."

"So strong?"

Li Zhi couldn't help asking.

"Your Majesty, you can try it yourself! Or direct others to experiment."

"And this thing is not afraid of rain after it dries, and it will be run over by heavy vehicles without leaving any traces!"

Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi both showed expressions of disbelief. It has been raining heavily these days, but the most worrying thing is that the roads are muddy and difficult to walk.

Chapter 270 I Made Cement in Datang

If this thing is really what Chen Fang said, it will solve a big problem in Ersheng's mind.

When the time comes to use this thing to pave the road, there is no need to be afraid of rainwater gathering on the road surface and ruining the road.It is raining heavily, but the road can pass smoothly. For disaster relief, this is a big deal.

At this time, Li Zhi went to the pile of concrete, squatted down, took some of it with his fingers, pinched it, and sniffed it with his nose.

Chen Fang was distressed, "Your Majesty, what does this thing smell like?"It is neither medicine nor flowers.

Li Zhi smelled it, and flicked the dust on his fingertips.

Over there, Wu Meiniang quickly took the brocade handkerchief she was wearing, and went over to help Li Zhi wipe his hands. Li Zhi stood up and looked at Chen Fang, which made Chen Fang's body tighten.

What look is this?

"My son-in-law, if this thing is as you said, it will solve the big problem of muddy roads. If you use this thing to pave roads in the future, you will still be afraid that it will rain and ruin the road!"

Li Zhi walked towards Chen Fang, holding Chen Fang with his hands that squeezed the cement, making Chen Fang even more depressed.But he had to force a smile on his face, His Majesty's expression, no matter what, he had to be perfunctory.

Your Majesty is happy, everyone is happy.Your Majesty is upset, and everyone is unlucky.

"My son-in-law, if this thing is as you said, when it is made, I will give you whatever you want!"

Chen Fang was even more depressed when he heard it. He was most afraid that His Majesty would say, what if I want Jiangshan?

Of course, you must understand what the Second Sage said, and give what the Second Sage said, which actually does not violate the requirements of the Second Sage's original heart.Otherwise, if you really want Jiangshan, Li Zhi will give it to you, how is it possible!

When the time comes to embarrass His Majesty, there is no one inside and outside, so I am not afraid of being pulled out by Qianniuwei and slaughtered.Even if His Majesty is reluctant to kill, how can the pain of flesh and blood be less?

"By the way, Chen Fang, when can I try this thing?"

At this time, Wu Meiniang took Chen Fang's other hand, stroked it and asked.

Chen Fang looked at Wu Meiniang, at Li Zhi, and at the room where the concrete had been laid.

"It will take a while to dry, at least two days later."

"Meiniang, I've been living here for the past two days, and I want to come and see it every day!"

Chen Fang suddenly wanted to slap himself hard. If he had known that Taohong would not call Ersheng, it would be great if the concrete was dry. Ersheng lived in Tang Gongfang.Sister!How inconvenient this is.

"Your Majesty, that Mei Niang also lives here and will accompany His Majesty to visit every day!"

"By the way, Your Majesty, it's been a long time since I've eaten food made by my son-in-law."

At this moment, Chen Fang really wanted to slap himself hard in front of the second saint, why did he call so early, he still needed to be served.Now it's all right, I am usually served by others in the workshop, but now I have to serve the second sage.

Er Sheng pulled Chen Fang to have a conversation, watched Feng Wei tamp and level the concrete on the floor of the room, Li Zhicai signaled everyone to leave.

His Majesty signaled that no one would dare not listen.When they went back, it was the two saints who pulled Chen Fang, one on this side and one on that side.

His own prince didn't get this kind of treatment either!Originally Yiyang Wu Meiniang was holding her back, but now she could only follow aside.

"Your Majesty, the workshop is simple and rough, I'm afraid Your Majesty will not be used to it."

"You and Yiyang are used to living, how can we not get used to it?"

Wu Meiniang glanced at Chen Fang, the look in her eyes had obvious meanings, obviously telling Chen Fang to stop talking nonsense and follow His Majesty's wishes.

"Meiniang is right. I used to lead troops out and lived in the desert. Why can't I get used to Tang Gongfang?"

Chen Fang was completely helpless, it seemed that the second sage had really lived here for the past two days.

"The minister asked someone to clean up the yard where the two His Highnesses lived before. It would be good for His Majesty to live there!"

"it is good!"

At this time, the courtyard where the two Highnesses lived only lived in five maidservants, so naturally they moved out to make room for the Second Saint.As for who is serving, it is naturally the five maids, and a healthy woman cannot be served.

The courtyard was already clean, but it didn't need to be cleaned up. The beds were just replaced with brand new ones. Naturally, there were maids busy.

Chen Fang was talking with the Ersheng, at this time Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang were in a better mood after a few days of haze.

"My son-in-law, if the time comes to make this cement, just ask for anything you need!"

"Your Majesty, there are other things to talk about, but what I need most is people!"

"How much?"

"At least tens of thousands!"

Li Zhi's complexion changed, tens of thousands, and the least, it was not difficult for Li Zhi to find these people for Chen Fang before, but it was a bit difficult during this time.

I thought there were only a few hundred or a few thousand people, but when the son-in-law spoke, there were at least tens of thousands of people.

"Chen Fang, let me discuss with His Majesty, people are not a problem! You just prepare, and as soon as the staff arrives, you can start working."

Chen Fang resigned, Li Zhi sighed, and glanced at Wu Meiniang.

"Meiniang, it is more difficult to allocate manpower now!"

"Brother Zhi, the three provinces and the six ministries are all busy in disaster relief these days, and it is true that there are not enough people for this group."

"How many can be transferred from the Nine Temples and Five Prisons?"

"It's a drop in the bucket! The son-in-law said at least tens of thousands. Could it be that His Majesty only gives 1 people?"

Li Zhi frowned, [-] is difficult to adjust at this time, let alone more.

If there was no such flood, it would not be difficult. With this disaster, everyone is busy with disaster relief. After the flood recedes, repairing the river course and removing the stagnant water will require a lot of manpower and material resources.In case the Lord of Plague comes, he has to be busy.

At this time, Datang had quite a lot of savings and abundant manpower, but he could take care of this side, but not the other side.At this time, there are catastrophes everywhere in Guanzhong, but they are busy everywhere, and they are in urgent need of manpower.

"Your Majesty, in fact, it is not difficult to deal with people. It depends on whether Your Majesty is willing to transfer these people to Tang Gongfang?"

"Meiniang, what do you mean..."

"Your Majesty has thought of it too!"

Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang both frowned.

In Fangzhu's courtyard, Chen Fang pulled Yiyang to sit there, and a few maidservants beside him served them wholeheartedly, beating their legs and rubbing their shoulders.

"My son-in-law, you suddenly asked your father how to transfer you so many people, and the manpower is the most tense right now."

"Your Majesty always has a way!"

"Listen to what you said, but I have already thought about who to use!"

Yiyang looked at Chen Fang, his eyes meant that Chen Fang didn't understand.

Chen Fang squeezed Yiyang's hand and looked at her.

"Do you know how Daqin built the Qin Zhidao and the Lishan Mausoleum on the Great Wall?"

"Do you dare to use Xingtu?"

"If you don't dare, it depends on your Majesty's approval. Those people are placed in prisons everywhere, but they are crowded with prisons everywhere."

"These are all criminals, how to use them, not afraid of causing trouble?"

"That's right, my son-in-law, these people are the scariest, they can do anything bad, and they can do all sorts of evil."

Tao Hong also chimed in.

"Beat your legs well. Your majesty has been here for the past two days and has followed the rules. Don't let your majesty see that you have no rules."

Knowing what Chen Fang said was right, Tao Hong and the others knelt down, it should be true.

"As long as people are afraid to use it, it depends on how to use it. Yiyang, in fact, the most labor-intensive things to make cement are digging mountains and quarrying and transporting. I remember that some people used to use wasteful labor in quarrying stones before."

Chapter 271 Xing Tu

"Then you have to think about how to restrain them. These people commit crimes and do all sorts of crimes."

"Where is it so serious, most of them are actually just being linked, give them a way to survive, I don't believe they choose to die!"

When it was getting dark, Chen Fang and Yiyang went to the courtyard next to them. Seeing that the two saints were still talking, Chen Fang and Yiyang carefully sat aside.

"What would your majesty want to eat today?"

His Majesty stopped talking, Chen Fang asked, he did not dare to forget that his Majesty said that he wanted to eat what he made.

"I heard that you often roast chicken and duck here. Let Your Majesty and I have a taste tonight."

"Alright, Chen Fang will go get ready now."

One day Dingyu was asked to fish, Taohong took a snow fence to catch chickens and ducks, a fire was lit in the workshop, and when the fragrance was fragrant, Er Sheng and Chen Fang Yiyang sat by the fire, Gao An also came over at this time, and sat down to see the ceremony , Watching the chicken, duck and fish on the fire is greedy.

Chen Fang's roasted meat has always been the best, but they roasted it, but it was not as delicious.

They were all the family members of the emperor, and even Chen Fang was the son-in-law of the emperor. It was true that the three juniors were a little nervous at first, but Li Zhi took the lead and said a few funny words, and gradually became more casual.

In fact, after being with Li Zhiwu Meiniang for a long time, Chen Fang also felt that the two saints were easy to get along with.

After a while, the smell of meat filled the air. Chen Fang took a few pieces of yellow paper, carefully tore off a shiny roasted duck leg, tore it off and handed it to Li Zhi. Li Zhi took a bite and praised it greatly.

Wu Meiniang stretched her head out and took a light bite on the duck leg that Li Zhi was biting.

Dingyu over there brought some dishes and Wu Meiniang pulled Dingyu to sit down and share the food.

When Chen Fang met, he also knew that this person was not simple before.

For a barbecue, Ersheng liked it very much, and Wu Meiniang ate the most. She only ate one piece of fish, and she only said it was fresh and delicious.

When the crowd dispersed, Li Zhi pulled Chen Fang and hugged Wu Meiniang, but let Chen Fang accompany him to talk again.

When Chen Fang went back, it was already midnight, and Yi Yang was asleep.

The courtyard was very quiet, only Dingyu was playing with the knife there. When she saw Chen Fang, she took the knife away.

These days, there are many people during the day, and Dingyu began to play with knives at night again.

"Pay more attention to rest and let Master see!"

He pulled Dingyu and took a closer look.

"It seems that the skin is not very good. I have been bathing with milk and water for the past few days, so I can make up for it quickly."

"Where does so much milk come from? The cow is pregnant and the calf is being fed."

Chen Fang patted his forehead, but there were no cows yet.

"Master, here is some milk, do you want to use it?"

Chen Fang teased her, Dingyu nodded, Chen Fang was depressed.

Forget it, why are you molesting her, my good apprentice, it's too late to pamper her.

Let go of his hand, only to see Dingyu leaning against his arms without letting go of his hand.

"Master, this disciple's hearing is actually quite good!"

Thinking of the thunderstorm that day, and the sound of crossbow arrows piercing the air amidst the thunder, Chen Fang sighed.

"Have you heard what Yiyang and I said?"

Ding Yu nodded lightly.
