Ge Gen's meeting, it really is a meeting, he is not in a hurry to move out, he is still living with Master Ji, Master Ji gave him a cold face for two days, and then his anger gradually dissipated, and he was with him after all Over the years, there are always feelings.

At this time, Pueraria began to relax and started to make models by himself. The wood he brought last time was still a little bit better, but he was not willing to use it to practice his hands, so he looked for wood again. When making it, he found that his hands were still a little bit Stupid, but, no matter how stupid you are, you have to persevere, even if it's a little slower?

I have been following Master Ji for many years. I dare not say that all the mortise and tenon structures can be used. There are always those that are commonly used. Knowing the mortise and tenon structure means that there will be a precise control of the size, and it will not be possible to make two parts separately. The parts couldn't be spliced ​​together in the end, but the overall layout was a bit poor, and sometimes Ji Mo was required to give pointers.

The small yard of the farmhouse is not very far apart. Someone passed by the window and heard everything inside. Master Ji overheard it twice, and felt more and more that Ji Mo, a young disciple, was capable.

When he goes out again in the next year, he will take Ji Mo directly to build the bridge. This time, it is not a task assigned by the government, but a rich family has come to invite him.

Master Ji is very famous, and he only takes this kind of thing as usual. This time, the road is a bit far away, and it may not be easy to walk.

Ge Gen has been able to make a small bridge model by himself during this period. Although it is only the same style, he is still thinking about it. He has painted different colors and used different woods to separate the layers. It is sold everywhere, the price of ordinary materials without coloring is not high, and it is not sold in batches, so you can still make some money after all.

He didn't have to go this time, but Ge Gen felt sorry, because the master brought him back, so he didn't bring any other disciples with him, if he didn't take him when he went out this time, who would carry the bag?Not to mention that Ji Mo, with his short legs, is really a hindrance.

"It's just a quick run, why can't I take a few more steps to have a look, Master, don't be so heartless!"

Obviously it is specially for carrying bags to send people to places, but Ge Gen said it nicely.

After hearing this, Master Ji seemed to relax his stern face, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "Did your brother and the others talk about it?"

"I've said everything nearby, and let them talk about the distant ones."

In ancient times, unless it was military pigeons, it was person-to-person transmission. Ge Gen notified the nearby ones, and then let the nearby ones notify the nearby ones, one by one to the distant ones, just like It is very convenient to pass the news like a baton, without having to run to everyone.

The day was set and the location was fixed. They didn't even have to come to Master Ji's house to meet up, they just went there. Some people were fast enough to delay their departure for two days.

Ge Gen used to do these things. He was going to teach Ji Mo, but he was scolded by Master Ji, to the effect that Ji Mo, a good student, wanted to concentrate on learning bridge building, and he was not allowed to use other things to abduct him. He also said that Ge Gen was unwilling to put his heart into serious matters because of these small things.

Ge Gen was said to have no temper, and he complained in private that his master was biased, but he also felt that this reason was much better than his own incompetence. Later, he even said to the outside world, saying that he just likes to do chores and doesn't care about serious things. A few years were wasted.

After hearing this, Ji Mo felt that the master and apprentice were also interesting, so he could get along happily after finding a reason to untie himself.

This rich family's hometown is deep in the mountains, and the mountains are full of miasma. They came out when they couldn't survive in the village. How could they have imagined that they started as a small boy, and now they have become a big shopkeeper with several shops. Seeing that my hometown is still the same, I thought about building a bridge, which can be regarded as benefiting the village.

The ancients paid attention to the return of fallen leaves to their roots, so the basic construction of the hometown is always necessary.

Where did the country party love begin?If there are no predecessors to bless the village, how dare those who go out of the village dare to rely on the predecessors, even if they are rich and powerful, they will not remember to support another predecessor who only cares about his own wealth.

There are many such things. The village is poor, but it also has its own process. After Master Ji came, the village head led people to welcome him. There is a river with deep ravines and rough waves, making it difficult to ferry.

"In and out, you have to swim, there is really no way."

Master Ji also took a look at this place, and it was indeed difficult.

There are smooth cobblestones on both sides of the river, and the underlying soil layer is not thick, which looks like a river bed in a wet season. The farther side is a cliff. The loess looks not very strong, and it can go down with a pat. The other side is a flat road with gravel and no trees. It is not easy to get a ferry with iron cables, let alone the water is deep and fast. It will be really terrible when it is cold. .

The village head is all wet, he really came from swimming, and the water quality is good, and he is glad that the river is not wide at this time, and they are not allowed to go out during the flood season every year, it is too dangerous.

It's not that there are no side roads, but the side roads are too far away, and you have to go around the deep mountains. The ancient deep mountains are not modern. There are many beasts and poisonous insects in the mountains. It's hard to say where you will lose your life in the end. , really lost, hard to find.

The village head brought two good players, and he was going to let them take turns to lead people to swim there. This was because not all people knew how to swim.

"We can build a stone arch bridge."

Master Ji was not in a hurry to cross the river, he looked back and forth along the edge of the water, Ji Mo followed behind, the juniors who arrived first did not say hello, they also followed Master Ji to look back and forth, some knew what to look at, and their eyes were a little bit different. Focus, some just look at it randomly, and don't know what to consider.

"This stone is hard to find!"

The village chief was a little confused and wondered: "Can't we use wood?"

Relying on mountains and eating mountains, there are many trees in the mountains, and wood is the best thing to find.

This kind of bridge construction requires help from the village, not for anything else, the bridge is the property of the village when it is built, if they don't contribute at all, Master Ji can build it with these few people Bridge, it is inevitable to waste time on the collection and handling of materials, which will prolong the construction period.

The sooner the results of this kind of investment by wealthy households, the better. Otherwise, if the salary according to the progress is interrupted, Master Ji and the others will stop doing it, and the village head will have nothing to do if the bridge is left unfinished. of.

Knowing what the village head was anxious about, Master Ji frowned. For a layman, the wooden arch bridge is the most convenient, the materials are easy to find, and it can be built quickly. It seems that the bridge can be completed with piles at both ends and wooden boards in the middle.

"There are a lot of wood in this mountain, but not all the wood can be used, not to mention that this wood also needs to be processed, and fresh ones won't work..."

There is a lot of moisture in the freshly cut wood. If the bridge is built according to this size, it will naturally shrink after it dries, and there may be some accidents. If there are bridge builders watching nearby, it is not afraid to make additions and modifications from time to time. What, but if no one is there, I'm afraid the bridge will collapse.

Since the purpose of building a bridge is not to build a bridge that will collapse soon, Master Ji is still very important to his reputation. When people hear his reputation, he will use that kind of thing to deal with it, which is not justified.

But the matter of money is indeed something to consider. The village head is anxious about this, and he knows it well. The rich family is just an ordinary wealthy family. Yes, it's really hard to guarantee that there will be a shortage at any time. If it is not done as soon as possible, it will be really troublesome to end.

"The stone arch doesn't have to be made of bricks and stones. If there is shellfish glue, gravel can be used. I think there are some shellfish here."

Shell glue is not weaker than fish glue, and even stronger. If you use shell glue to stick gravel to build a bridge, then the calculation difficulty will be doubled. Not to mention, each gravel has a different shape. How to arrange it in detail is always troublesome.

In addition, shellfish glue cannot be used to fill all kinds of gaps, as there is not enough glue, and some bricks and stones must be fired to use at key points. The entire project is hard work.

Ji Mo peeked at the distressed expression on the senior brother's face, even with the help of the young and strong in the village, they still have the bulk of the coolies.

"Okay, okay, okay, stone is definitely stronger and more durable than wood." The village head was quick to retort at the moment, since he didn't want the village's young and strong to go to other places to carry stones here, but to use local materials and sell them. Zili, there is nothing to say.

After the discussion here, Master Ji frowned and picked up the stones by the river. Pebbles are not acceptable. Even if they are used, they must be smashed to make them not so smooth. It’s not that simple. There’s also shellfish glue, which is easy to make. It’s just boiled over high heat to boil the glue. The fire can’t be stopped, and someone can watch it. Then make some molds to combine crushed stone shellfish glue to make bricks. Comes in a shape that is easy to use.

If you really rely on gravel and make it a little bit sticky, it will not be possible to build a bridge.

Ji Mo knew that Master Ji was thinking about business, so he didn't bother him, and followed him to see that he was still too young. On the way over, Ge Gen was still carrying him with his bag on his back. Going back, the mountain road is not easy to walk, maybe some senior brother will be needed to carry the weight.

Master Ji measured the width of both sides of the river bank with his footsteps. Now it is the flat water period, and the turbulent river water seems to be relatively stable. When the river becomes wider during the wet season, the bridge must not stand directly in the river water. The solid foundation cannot withstand long-term erosion, not to mention the rush of water here, the force is strong, and the sand and gravel mixed in it will also hit the bridge foundation.

Therefore, the location of the bridge pile is farther away, and it is still outside the gravel. The knowledge of this measurement is considered in many ways, and one must have eyesight experience.

Master Ji had pinpointed the location where the river would not rush in during the high water season without the village head telling him. The village head smiled and praised Master Ji's reputation, which was another good word.

These jobs are all conscientious work. If the bridge builders are not careful, if their "privately run" bridge collapses in a year or two, they will have reasons to shirk and cannot be held accountable.

So this reputation is really the most important thing, who is the one with a conscience is only in the reputation.
