Li Xin also lived in the wasteland, and he was not too busy on weekdays, but he was walking around. She is not in charge of the reclamation of the wasteland now, she is mainly planning how to build the embankment.

Because this is also a very strict problem, if the turbid river rises sharply, then the reclaimed wasteland will not be submerged. While the dry season is approaching, it is still necessary to build the embankment as much as possible. Li Xin roughly planned it, spent the drawings, and discussed it with Wang Fu and Yin Liuchen.

The embankment was to be built by Kendong, and if the embankment was to be built, the canal should also be done by the way, otherwise it would be very inconvenient to irrigate later.

The three of them studied it carefully for a few days, and felt that it was convenient to keep it if it was appropriate, and it was convenient to modify it if it was not suitable. After careful investigation, I found a more experienced local craftsman to see it, and the craftsman also felt that it was okay, and the plan was determined.

Fortunately, there are many places where embankments need to be built on the banks of the Turbid River, so craftsmen who are familiar with this area can find out a lot. Experienced people are always better than Li Xin's inexperienced, and Li Xin can also say that if you really want to build a dam, she doesn't have this convenient experience. Yin Liuchen and Wang Fu also don't know how to build embankments.

Once the drawings were drawn, the next step was to build the embankment. Since he had already found an experienced craftsman, Li Xin invited someone to help by the way, and asked that person to help introduce some people by the way.

Li Xin mainly handed over the recruitment to Wang Fu. She's busy tinkering with cement herself! In the past, cement was easy to buy, where to use drums! Although she knows how to make old-fashioned cement, she really hasn't really done it, so she still needs to tinker slowly. She had seen burning lime, and since the firing process was similar to that of burning lime, the same kiln should be usable.

It is not difficult to find a kiln for burning lime, and lime is also a relatively commonly used thing, and it has a long history of use in architecture. So it's easy to find a place to burn lime without having to run much.

"Miss, lime is only used to build a house, and I have already bought a lot of it, why is Miss still in a hurry to find lime?" Wang Fu was a little surprised by Li Xin's behavior.

"I'm not looking for lime to build a house! It was to be used to build the dikes. Li Xin also pulled Wang Fu and Yin Liuchen into the carriage and told the two of them about the cement. Although it is not good to spread the cement matter everywhere for the time being, Wang Fu is going to preside over the construction of the embankment, and she can't hide it from Wang Fu.

And Yin Liuchen, if he wants to follow her all the time anyway, he will know soon. When he has a lot of doubts, it is better to have a good answer with them now.

In fact, cement is going to spread after all, but it is only a matter of time. At this time, she was reluctant to let too many people know, because she was afraid that people would come to grab materials with her, her project was big, but she needed a lot of cement, so naturally she couldn't let people come and grab materials with her so quickly.

As for the future, she can't manage it, and she doesn't want to care about it. Anyway, she wants to make cement for her own use, and she doesn't want to make cement for money without this technology.

She doesn't have a lot of heart, and she doesn't like to do too many kinds of business.

"Is that cement really that good?" After listening to Li Xin's description, Wang Fu was a little dumbfounded. I don't know how many amazing things this eldest lady has not been discovered, how can she always come up with something new! If ordinary people come up with the same, it would be amazing, and there are always novel ideas, and I don't know how the heart grows.

"Whether this is really the case or not, we will know when the system comes out." She can't say that she has seen cement, that is to say, she has heard it from outsiders, so naturally it is not easy to say how easy cement must be. Whether the thing is good or not, it will naturally be clear at a glance after the zuò comes out.

"How much else is there on Miss Xin Yao that we can't see through?" Yin Liuchen observed Li Xin with interest, looking at her from beginning to end, as if he wanted to see her in her soul. was looked at like this by his gaze, even though Li Xin felt that he was thick-skinned, he still couldn't stand it, and hurriedly avoided his gaze.

"It is impossible for people in the world to see through it at a glance, otherwise how can there be such a sentence as 'knowing the face but not the heart'? How many days have you known each other? How can you see through me all at once, if I were like that, I wouldn't be a thin piece of paper? Li Xin laughed.

She was just afraid of being stared at by him, so she hurriedly found something to prevaricate.

"If you really say that I met Miss Xin Yao, it's really not a short time! Speaking carefully, in fact, compared to Brother Ziye, I met Miss Xin Yao earlier. Yin Liuchen's gaze still lingered on Li Xin's body, but it was no longer as sharp as before, and it was a lot softer when it was less sharp.

It seemed that the scorching sun suddenly turned into a warm spring breeze, and Li Xin felt slightly more comfortable. This time she listened to his words seriously, and it had been more than a year and a half since she really talked about their acquaintance. The next Lantern Festival will be held again, but it will be two full years.

It turns out that unconsciously, they have known each other for so long? After all, she naturally met him first, and then recognized the people of the Ling family.

However, at the Lantern Festival that year, did they really know each other? At most, it can only be regarded as a hurry, she doesn't know who he is, what identity he is, at most she knows a name. And he didn't know anything about her, at most he saved her.

In that kind of scene, I'm afraid it can't be considered an acquaintance no matter how you say it! But after all, it's fate! Some people say well, rubbing shoulders and looking back are all a kind of fate, cultivated in the previous life. Although she doesn't believe that people have a past and present life, she likes such a beautiful statement.

Encounters are fate, regardless of whether or not God deliberately arranges them. If it is not deliberately arranged, it can still be encountered, in fact, it shows that it is fate!

Li Xin didn't deny anything, just smiled faintly and passed.

Now that Li Xin has carefully talked about cement with Wang Fu and Yin Liuchen, the next step is to find the person who burns lime, and everyone has no objection to this, Li Xin has explained clearly, and no one needs to ask anything. Then he set off, Wang Fu had already bought lime to use on the wasteland, so he could naturally find the lime burner quickly.

found the lime's house, and briefly explained to the host that he wanted to trade, and was warmly welcomed into the house by the host. During the detailed discussion, Li Xin proposed to burn something different, but the host asked her strangely about the use, but she only said that it was useful, and did not directly explain the use of white cement.

The host didn't ask much, and there was definitely no reason for the business to rush out, so after talking about remuneration and the like, the host readily agreed. Since it is to calcine lime, Li Xin does not have to worry about the source of limestone, and as for clay, it is actually not difficult to find. And the clay is very special, and most local people will know where it is when they see it.

When talking about limestone with people, Li Xin suddenly remembered the marl. Marl can be fired directly from natural cement without any ingredients, and this cement is particularly suitable for works that come into contact with water. She had been so preoccupied with the good performance of cement made from a mixture of clay and lime that she had forgotten that she could also use marl to make cement.

Moreover, marl fired into cement is a pure natural material, and there is no need to add any ingredients, so the ratio does not need to be controlled, and this method is really good when you think about it. Moreover, the places where the marls are located are related to limestone, and since there is a way to get limestone, there is a way to find marl.

Li Xin agreed with the lime burner that if there was marl, he would help her buy some. The people didn't know what the marl looked like, and she explained it carefully.

According to the girl, she had seen this thing, but no one had ever paid close attention to it, let alone brought it home. Since the girl wants it, she will definitely bring some for the girl next time. ”

"Then I'll bother Brother Luo." Li Xin said with a smile. The family whose family was burning the lime was surnamed Luo, and the person in charge was only a man in his thirties. There are also elders in the family, but they don't care anymore, but this person named Luo Peng is managing the affairs of the family, so he came to talk to Li Xin and his party about affairs.

"Then Brother Luo will try to fire a kiln according to what I said, and I'll come to see when it's finished, if the thing is really qualified, then I will buy a lot of it later, and I hope Brother Luo will bother." After saying that, Li Xin left a deposit and stood up.

"Don't worry, girl, I already know where she lives, and there are people in the village who work for her. Once it is fired, it must be told to the girl in time. Luo Peng was very respectful of Li Xin. Although few people know who the owner of the wasteland is, the matter of the wasteland reclamation still alarmed many people in the surrounding area, and many people went there to do work.

Everyone who knew that Li Xin was the owner of the wasteland had a little more respect.

"I'll take my leave." Li Xin and his entourage walked out. It's been a long time, and now that things have been negotiated, I'll go back first. The trip is smooth, Li Xin can be regarded as at ease, and a good start will always make people happy.

"Miss said, can the cement really be fired successfully?" Wang Fu still had some doubts.

"It should work! Now that I know the method, let's try it a few more times! I believe that it will always succeed, and it is not easy to succeed once, but if you take it slowly, you will not have a problem thinking about it. ”R1152
