[Comprehensive] The days when I pretended to be a meow in the Forbidden City

竹钢

Different from the modern wooden building material called bamboo steel, Xia Anran's so-called bamboo steel refers to bamboo, but it is the best and cheapest material that can replace steel structures after being dried and baked in the shade.

Modern bamboo steel is a high-performance bamboo-based fiber composite material made of bamboo through multiple technologies such as fiberization. It is still bamboo in essence, but it has the hardness of steel.

Bamboo steel is a new material that is gradually popularized in modern home decoration. It has a beautiful texture of wood, but its hardness, water resistance and compression resistance are far superior to other woods.

The hardness of bamboo is acceptable, but the key is that it has the characteristics of high compressive coefficient, and has the advantages of small coefficient of water absorption expansion, no cracking and no deformation.

Xia Anran knew this material thanks to the blessing of the Shanghai World Expo. In the Shanghai World Expo, two venues used the main structure to weave the venues.

In this era, if the composite soil can replace the cement, the bamboo reinforcement can replace the steel reinforcement.

And the key is that bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world, and its renewability and cost performance are extremely high.

Xia Anran did an experiment. He arranged the bamboo slices horizontally and vertically, and fixed them with cotton ropes. As for the compacted concrete, he covered the bamboo tendons with concrete. When the concrete panels with the same thickness were resistant to the test, the effect was It is more than twice that.

He pointed to the two newly made clay panels in front of him and motioned Shen Qi to try to compare them, then he widened his eyes and saw that Shen Qi rolled up his sleeves and hit the clay panels with his fist.

Xia Anran: ...

Xia Anran:! ! ! !No, I didn't ask you to try this!

"...Brother Shen..." He stared blankly at the three-component clay board that was split from Shen Qi's fist in the center, feeling that his three views were a little bit shattered.

Before this, the board had gone through the weight of a cow, the chopping with a kitchen knife, and the full force of the Yongchun county government servant. As a result, Shen Qi just punched it so easily...

He inexplicably felt pain all over his body.

Shen Qi over there was a little surprised after putting away his fist. Although there were cracks in the three-in-one clay board, it was only the surface layer. Because it was a clay board, he could clearly see the red mud and sand inside.

Stretching his wrist, Shen Qi walked to another clay board with bamboo tendons strongly recommended by Xia Anran, switched hands and punched it down under Xia Anran's blank expression.

Then he let out a sigh, raised his eyebrows, and moved his hands away in surprise, Xia Anran leaned over to take a look, although it would not be said that it was intact, but the damaged state of the improved three-in-one clay board was better than that without bamboo tendons There are too many, but there are shallow pits.

Xia Anran was also shocked by the difference. He touched his chin, thinking that this might be due to the difference caused by the shock absorbing effect of the bamboo tendons.

With the support of bamboo tendons, the pressure on the composite soil will be evenly distributed, and the damage suffered will naturally be small

But this is only because the force received is a heavy hammer. If it is a weapon with a relatively small contact surface, such as an arrow, the effect will not be obvious, but Xia Anran is just providing an idea. He is not an expert in this field. It needs to be researched by professionals.

"How much does this cost?" Shen Qi rubbed his wrist and asked.

"It's very low. The raw material is available in Yongchun." Xia Anran replied, "It's just lime. I bought it from another county. There is limestone in Yongchun, but there is no oven."

Shen Qi nodded to express his understanding, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "Maybe build a wall?"

"Yes." Xia Anran answered without hesitation, "It's better to say that the effect of building walls is more significant."

Shen Qi thought for a while and said, "Jingxi."

"Ok?"

"Thank you."

Xia Anran looked up in surprise, and saw the young man smiling slightly under the sun, staring at him with dark and deep black eyes, with a warm smile.

So Xia Anran knew that he understood, and couldn't help but a thin layer of blush appeared on his face, and then he blinked quickly, flashing away a flash of embarrassment, and said, "Brother Shen, what I did was for the people in central Fujian." .”

Yongchun County is located in southern Fujian. Even if the thief comes to the shore, there are other counties to resist him. It is unlikely that Yongchun will be robbed. As the county magistrate of Yongchun County, the most important thing Xia Anran should do after taking office is to welcome the coming autumn harvest .

But he chose to first tinker with the triad and do defensive works, trying to help Shen Qi defend the city.

The reason is very simple, no matter how big and delicious the cake is, it’s not that your own is useless, it’s just a wedding dress for others.

This truth is understood by everyone in modern times.

The county magistrate Qin also agreed with him to engage in defense first, but thought that it was not necessary to be in the top position.

In his view, Yongchun County is located in the middle of many counties, and there are few bandits. However, due to the blockage of high mountains in the northwest, Yongchun is in a low-lying area. Although there is a watchtower, there is often fog day and night in southern Fujian. , Most of them will be caught off guard.

Therefore, he suggested that Xia Anran should repair the city wall before the winter. According to his experience, once the winter comes, the edible mountain products in the forest will decrease, and the bandits may go down the mountain to plunder. In the past year, I have only encountered bandits descending the mountain four times.

It is said that they are bandits, but they are actually mountain people.

Mountain people are a problem left over from history. Most of them are good people who fled to the mountains in order to avoid military service or were affected during the war. Mountain people gave up their household registration and responsibilities and became rioters.

In ancient times, the issue of household registration was very particular. People like mountain people who gave up their household registration, no matter what the reason, ended up being demoted to inferior people, slaves or servants, and once caught, they could be treated as rioters. To kill.

These mountain people live in the deep mountains, and they have to be very careful to hide their identities. Human beings will never be self-sufficient. Even if they can farm, hunt, and tailor their own clothes, they are destined to be exposed to the public because of the salt alone. touch.

Most of their contacts with the outside world are hunters in the mountains. The hunters exchange salt for prey or mountain products, but this behavior is extremely dangerous. When the mountain people flee, most of them use family as a unit. If they reproduce in the mountains, they will naturally become a group. If the hunters accidentally know If they lost their location, then the mountain people would probably kill and silence them for self-protection, or they might send them to the village to stay as... cough, the villager.

After all, everyone knows that giving birth to a baby always needs fresh blood.

Although they used to be good citizens of Yongchun County, these mountain people have lived in the mountains for several generations. They are wild and difficult to be educated. Citizens of Yongchun County.

——Although increasing the population is a good thing, it is bad to attract wolves into the house.

Over time, once the hard winter comes, mountain people who lack resources may gather to go down the mountain to grab food, cloth, charcoal fire, and salt.

Because they come quietly, there is not much movement, and they often operate late at night, it is really hard to guard against.

This point has to talk about the layout of ancient towns again.

The terrain of Yongchun County is elongated. The county government is located in the central area of ​​Yongchun County, protected by a wall. Due to the terrain, only two gates, east and south, are opened.

The second southeast gate opens at sunrise and closes at sunset every day. The richer people live in the town and are protected by walls and officers and soldiers.

But in addition, Yongchun County also has five townships, seventeen li, each of which is in charge of the head of the township, and there are villages and other units under it.

This is how the so-called hometown among fellow villagers came about.

The governance and protection of these villages, ri, and townships cannot be well protected, and they all rely on self-government, and these are the people who are often attacked by the mountain people.

There will also be differences between villages. A slightly richer village will build an earthen wall to resist, and there will be stronger villagers responsible for night watch, but poorer villages can only rely on themselves. Their only shelter is their home. The yard is fenced off.

It's not that Xia Anran doesn't want to popularize Sanhe soil, it's just that it's quite difficult. To build a city wall that can block the enemy, it means that the wall must be at least two meters high. Regardless of the labor force, it is not easy to do in terms of materials and construction standards. In the busy farming season, everything has to give in to the busy farming season.

After the grains are threshed and stored, and this year's tax is paid, farmers will start hoarding grain for the winter. The entire Yongchun County has a resident population of less than [-]. If there is free time, the only time is winter.

But in fact, even the county magistrate is not qualified to order the people in the area under his jurisdiction to work for free. The county magistrate can only command these people in the county government. If he wants to build the city wall, he must mobilize the township and invite the people to work.And the remuneration will be paid by the county government.

By then, it will be winter. Sanhe soil has another characteristic, that is, it needs to be completely dry to achieve a better effect. In the winter in the south, it is difficult to dry out, but the sanhe soil is not dry. If it is piled up again before being transparent, it will easily lead to collapse.

So Xia Anran is going to present the method of making Sanhe soil, and then ask the government to second the civilian labor to build the city wall.

He informed Shen Qi of this discovery in his own name, and at the same time handed over the form to the prefect of Yongchun Prefecture in a more formal format. Instead of wanting to come first, it was Shen Qi who was farther away. The prefect of Yongchun Prefecture has not yet heard.

The military represented by Shen Qi obviously paid more attention to this technology.

This dynasty pays attention to the separation of government and military, that is to say, although Shen Qi's rank is higher than Xia Anran's, but because he is a military officer, he cannot order Xia Anran unless there is a war.

In the same way, Shen Qi's immediate superior, the garrison admiral, couldn't order Xia Anran to hand over the method of making Sanhe soil. The correct way was for the admiral to find the head of the chief envoy, and the chief envoy ordered Xia Anran to cooperate. Just cooperate, not hand over the recipe.

The only one who can order him to hand over the formula is the imperial power. Of course, there are not so many imperial powers in general. Most of these sensitive things are presented by the subordinates themselves.

But the premise of all this is that Xia Anran and Shen Qi don't know each other.

When the admiral of Fujian realized this shortcut, he immediately sent Shen Qi to find Xia Anran. Of course, Xia Anran had no intention of hiding anything. The Sanhe soil in his memory is still somewhat different from the one in his memory.

The Sanhe clay slab that can make small pits when Shen Qi hits it with his fist is not the same as the Fujian Tulou that can block bullets and gunpowder as mentioned in the magazine.

He just didn't know that Shen Qi was born with supernatural power since he was a child, if not for this, he would not be able to be alone at such a young age.

He is still worried about why the Sanhe soil is so fragile. Could it be that the people in the yamen deliberately withdrew their strength to make him happy?Go back and have to criticize them.

——It’s just that he found the wrong reference object.

The author has something to say: Bamboo steel is now popular, especially for terrace floors or wooden steps in parks, which are beautiful and strong.

Bamboo tendons are treated with bamboo and woven into a net to support the cement, but the three-component soil does not seem to need this, but I read the tutorial and said that I need this... I am not sure about this, in case I am wrong... cough cough, forgive me I.

But if traveling, remember, bamboo can help a lot!

Bamboo tendons can last for about 20 years, but the old bridges made of cement and bamboo tendons in many places in China are still there, almost... 5/60 years old.
