Chapter Forty-Eight: Daily Life in Jinling (2)
Jinyu felt a little strange in her heart at this time, when did the relationship between this obscene old man and his father become so good, I saw Wen Jun pulling Zhang Jingxuan and Jinyu Zhang Weiwen to sit on the ground.
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen my apprentice for a while, so I'm going to take a look at the academy at this moment." Wen Jun said, this Jinling Academy was originally the academy opened by Wen Jun, and it is very famous in the Jinling area, Jinyu looked at the beautiful scenery of these four places, and thought to herself that Wen Jun would enjoy it very much.
I used to hear others say that there is not even a kitchen in Jinling Academy, and it is all custom-made from the best restaurant in Jinling City.
The beautiful name is "a gentleman is far away from cooking." ”
"Can Jing Xuan still adapt in the academy?" Zhang Weiwen asked, at this time, Jinyu seemed to see an awkward expression on Zhang Jingxuan's face, when did his extremely cold brother become such a child.
Zhang Jingxuan nodded and didn't speak, just glanced at Jinyu with a slight strange look.
"Tautology is ready now?" Wen Jun asked, Zhang Weiwen frowned slightly, then stretched, and said, "Actually, what I said before was thought about after I thought about it, and I still feel a little inappropriate." ”
"Why? Is it because of the cement formula? Wen Lao was a little anxious, and at this time Zhang Jingxuan frowned, as if he was troubled by something, and Jinyu couldn't help but be a little worried.
"It's not a problem with cement, it's a matter of time before cement comes out, I just figured out one thing in this Liuyang flood, and I also found a problem." Zhang Weiwen said.
"Dare to ask the tautology, what problem have you found?"
"It's a matter of money." Wen Jun was stunned when he heard this, wiped his beard, Zhang Weiwen looked at Wen Jun and said, "The reason for the flooding of the Yanjiang River is that the vegetation in the upper reaches is becoming increasingly scarce, the river carries too much sediment, and the siltation becomes an above-ground river, plus there is a flat below, and the river channel changes arbitrarily, so I have been thinking about what kind of project the master you are talking about is going to build in order to deal with such a complex flood, and then it was not until I actually went to that place that I understood that you wanted to build a dam in the upper mountain gorge of the Yanjiang River." ”
Wen Jun froze when he heard this, and sighed.
"Tautology is really smart, this is the old man's idea, but there is a lack of a key material, if it is feasible, then my Great Zhou's country is really stable."
"I think the master that Elder Wen said is also yourself."
"You guessed it, the old man really has nothing to say." Old man Wen Jun blushed slightly and looked at Zhang Weiwen.
"But Wen Lao, have you thought about a question, although the cement is very hard, but relying on it alone, the dam still can't withstand tens of thousands of water flows, maybe you don't understand the physical properties of cement but in fact this thing is not a single use, it has to be mixed with steel bars to be able to play a role, do you know how much pig iron is needed for a steel bar?"
Wen Jun was silent, what the current Great Zhou Dynasty lacked most was pig iron and horses.
"Moreover, I have checked the local information before, and there are hundreds of thousands of people who need to be dismissed for the project, does the imperial court have that much money?"
"Even if the imperial court has that much money, will it be used on it? The northwest border is still in trouble, and the various states are unstable, I am afraid that the imperial court may not be willing to pay this money at this time. ”
Wen Jun was silent, took out a pot of wine from his arms, and drank it.
"I know, but the old man must calm the Yanjiang River flood in his lifetime." Wen Jun stood up, his eyes calm, but Jinyu felt it, and there was a stubbornness in his eyes that could be called demonic.
"I will always support you, after all, things are man-made, many processes and technologies are constantly improving and developing, and one day those obstacles that still bothered us yesterday will soon disappear."
Wen Jun handed the wine to Zhang Weiwen, Zhang Weiwen took a sip, and suddenly felt a spicy rush to his head, Wen Jun smiled and said, "Drunk from people, how does Brother Tautology feel?" ”
Zhang Weiwen tried to calm the anxiety that rose in his throat and said, "It's okay, it's okay." At this time, the lake wind was gusting, but Wen Jun was silent.
"Tautology, do you remember Gui Cao Guizhi?" Wen Jun took a sip of wine.
"Why don't you remember, Brother Gui Zhi should have already returned to Beijing at this time, right?" Wen Jun's face froze, put down the wine glass in his hand, and said, "It is a big sin to release grain without permission, and Brother Gui Zhi has been relegated to Liangzhou at this time." ”
"Liangzhou is bitterly cold, but it is bitter Brother Gui, if I didn't have the ambition to do things before, I wouldn't be like this." Zhang Weiwen blamed himself a little, Wen Jun sighed and said, "You don't have to blame yourself, Brother Gui has already done this, even if you don't say that, he will do that." ”
The two were speechless for a while.
Jinyu sat on the side and watched the butterflies flying around on the grass boringly, and suddenly felt that she didn't want to stay between these two old men, so Jinyu pulled Jing Xuan's sleeve and said, "Brother, can you accompany me to catch butterflies?" Zhang Jingxuan looked at Wen Jun and Zhang Weiwen, and Zhang Weiwen said, "Jinyu can't be so rude. ”
"Forget it, children should look like children, Jinyu, this girl is finally childish, let's let them have fun." Jinyu happily pulled Jing Xuan aside to play.
In fact, Jinyu has always had a strangeness to this brother, even if they have lived together for so many years, but Jinyu still feels that he and she are not people of the same world, Jinyu has never thought about how good she wants to have a relationship with this brother, but at least don't let him go to the road of no return in his previous life.
"Brother, Miaomiao is back, aren't you happy?" Jinyu asked, a pair of big flickering eyes that made Zhang Jingxuan feel a little palpitating.
"Of course I'm happy." The tone was as flat as a fight, which couldn't help but make Jinyu doubt the authenticity of this sentence.
"Brother, don't you like me?" Jinyu continued to ask, she really brought the shameless spirit to the extreme, Jinyu rubbed her eyes and wrinkled her little nose, and cried with a sob, "Other people's brothers are very gentle with their sisters, but brother, you don't even smile at me." ”
Zhang Jingxuan looked at his sister's tears that fell when she said it, and was a little speechless, so he reached out and patted Jinyu's hairy head, and said, "Don't cry, I'll just change it." ”
After hearing this, Jinyu turned into a smile, and looked at Zhang Jingxuan with two eyes like small animals.
Inexplicably, he felt a warmth in his heart.
"Don't you want to catch butterflies?" Jinyu looked at those butterflies with no interest, shook her head and said, "Brother, you take me to see your academy, I don't want to catch butterflies again." ”
Zhang Jingxuan looked at the smiling Jinyu a little helplessly.
"Let's go."
