Hu Hanyun's first "construction corps" is mainly responsible for the supply and transportation of construction materials on the construction site.

The building materials needed by Yanhuang Academy generally include adobe bricks, lime, glutinous rice mortar, stone and wood, the first three are bought from various places with money, and the demand for adobe bricks is particularly large, and a special team must be sent to the brick kiln to carry them back.

In the Tang Dynasty, there have been many brick kilns among the people, but most of them are smaller, this time with the Yanhuang Academy, the "construction corps" reached a cooperation is an official kiln near Chang'an City, more than 30 miles away from Meicun, the city wall of Chang'an City and the construction of the imperial palace, are used in the brick kiln of the adobe bricks.

To be reasonable, it is not impossible for Li Zexuan to build his own brick kiln, and the brick kiln he built must be stronger than other brick kilns.

The work of building a kiln seems to be very high, but it is not difficult to really start construction. With the skill, building a brick kiln is even simpler than building a house.

The only thing that is difficult to solve is the problem of chimneys, you must know that the common brick kilns in later generations have to be thirty or forty meters high just for chimneys, which is a bit difficult in the Tang Dynasty when there were no tower cranes and no scaffolding.

However, it is not without a solution, Li Zexuan knows that there is a way to burn bricks without a chimney - a circulating kiln!

The appearance of the circular ballad resembles a long row of pillboxes, the height is less than five meters, but the length is two hundred zhang. The biggest advantage of the circulating kiln is the ability to recycle the burning of bricks, and it can build twenty caves, each of which can be ignited separately.

Compared with the conjoined brick kilns of this era, which were eight holes per group, the circulation kiln was more efficient and more fuel-efficient.

Although there are many advantages to building a brick kiln by himself, Li Zexuan does not plan to do so, he can't build a academy with all the materials himself, right? That's going to take a lot of effort, and this kind of monopoly idea is unacceptable! You have to leave a little profit for others, don't you?

Afternoon.

Hu Hanyun took more than 3,000 people from the 1st regiment to the mountains to "fight the wilderness", cough cough, to be precise, it was to cut wood!

They had to get a batch of wood back and hand it over to other regiments to build temporary shelters for the workers, and for the entire "construction corps," the only way to start the first day, in addition to dividing the formations, was to build a place to settle down, and the formal construction of the academy had to wait until tomorrow.

Luckily, it's summer, and as long as the workers' dwellings can keep out the sun and rain, there is no need to think about keeping warm, so it will be very easy to build.

………………………

The sun is slanting to the west.

Yunshan is still very lively.

Rows of small sheds are arranged in the mountains and forests, and there are still signs hanging in front of each shed, and nine out of ten people actually don't know words, let alone Arabic numerals, but there are so many sheds, in order to avoid the workers going to the wrong place after "getting off work" at night, Li Zexuan can only order each of them to remember the appearance of the numbers on the sign of their sheds.

Seeing that the gates of Chang'an City were about to be closed, and the workers' residences on this side of the construction site were almost completed, he asked Li Tai to come and prepare to return to the city.

As for Yan Lide and Fu Bo, the two of them had already gone back an hour ago.

"Well, Xiao Xuan, why don't you go back alone! We have a group of eight and two people's residences haven't been set up~! ”

Li Tai seems to be "on top", and the first thing he said when he was called to Li Zexuan's side was this.

When Li Zexuan heard this, he glared and scolded: "Get out!" If you stay outside the city, if Your Majesty and Niangniang find out, will they have to skin me? If the residence is not set up, you just hand it over to Gu Xiaomao, what are you doing here? ”

Li Tai returned to "reality" at this time, remembering that he was a "child with a father's mother", and he also understood that what Li Zexuan said was the truth, so he couldn't help touching his nose and accepting the "organizational arrangement" by default.

Li Zexuan glanced at him angrily, and then said to Gu Xiaomao: "Xiaomao, the remaining tasks of the eight teams are handed over to you today, is there a problem?" ”

Gu Xiaomao was very eye-catching, knowing that this was an opportunity for his own performance, he hurriedly said loudly: "Dongjia, no problem, absolutely no problem!" You and the captain can go back to the city with confidence! ”

"Did you hear that~? There's no problem on their side, Qingque, why don't you get on the horse soon? It's not good if the city gate closes for a while~! ”

Li Zexuan urged.

"Oh~! Yes~! Gu Xiaomao, Team 8 will please you~! I'll come back tomorrow morning~! ”

Li Tai nodded, turned over and got on the horse, but still told with some unease.

"Yes, yes, captain, don't worry~!"

…………………………

Two people and two horses, fast horses, finally returned to Chang'an City before sunset.

Li Zexuan is naturally back to Yongle Fang, and the little fat man, before returning to his Wei Palace, he has to go to the palace, after all, he decided to participate in the construction of Yanhuang Academy today, and he has not yet obtained Li Er's consent~!

"Qingque, what are you sweating profusely for? And I haven't seen you for a day today. ”

In the Reissanjeon Hall.

Li Tai saw Li Er and Empress Changsun, they had just finished eating, because Li Tai could still smell the residual aroma of food in the air, he didn't eat well at noon, and he didn't care about eating at night, and the little fat man was now hungry with his chest against his back, of course he would be more sensitive to these fragrances.

"Back to my father, Yanhuang Academy started construction today, and my son went to Yunshan with Mr., and I just returned to the city after a busy day there, and I haven't had time to bathe, so I am so out of shape, please atone for my father!"

Li Tai answered Li Er's question on his lips, but in his heart he was thinking about how many drinks and dishes he would have to ask the cook to prepare when he returned to the palace later.

"Oh~? Qingque, you actually went to Yanhuang Academy to help~? ”

What kind of temperament Li Tai is, how could Li Er, who is a father, not know, so he was so surprised when he heard what Li Tai said!

Empress Changsun also interjected: "Bird, you went out of the city silently for a day, but you didn't expect to go to the barren mountains and mountains, this summer is scorching, I'm afraid you won't suffer less, right?" ”

Thinking of all the experiences he experienced on this day, although Li Tai felt hard, he felt more fulfilling, and this day was worth the previous month!

"Queen Mother, sons are not hard! Instead, I learned a lot from it! Erchen plans to do his best to help Mr. build the academy in these two months, and I hope that the father and the queen mother will give permission! ”

"What~?"

Li Er raised his eyebrows, stared at Li Tai, and asked, "Qingque, you have never experienced construction labor, how can you help Li Zexuan build the academy~?" ”

Empress Eldest Sun also wrinkled her eyebrows at this time and asked: "Qi'er, as far as the queen mother knows, Xiao Xuan invited more than 10,000 craftsmen and people to participate in the construction of the academy this time, and the construction progress is naturally safe." And Que'er, you have lived in the deep palace since you were a child, how can you suffer like this? ”
