The rapid construction of a mansion covering an area of five hundred acres was difficult for the craftsmen of this era.

But for Chen Chu, it is not so difficult.

The mansion he wanted to build was different from the traditional one, from the layout to the style.

Chen Chu also has cement, a new type of building material, the traditional wood construction, the need to air dry, polish, etc., large-scale use of wood, I am afraid that it will take more than half a year, and the concrete made of cement, you can create any shape you want, it only takes a few days to form.

Moreover, Chen Chu also handed over advanced tools such as pulleys and simple tower cranes to Zhu Neng and others.

Let's just say the simplest land leveling.

In the past, a huge stone mill or wood was dragged by more than a dozen horses to roll it around, but now, Chen Chu directly invented the most primitive pile driver, using pulleys to lift the heavy boulder high, and then slam it down, like this pile driver, there are more than a dozen of them on the entire construction site, so you can hear the sound of dong dong from a distance, as well as the tremor of the ground.

The progress of the whole project is very fast.

And so the days went by.

Because Chen Chu asked people to cover the construction site with high wooden planks, outsiders only heard the sound of busyness inside, but they didn't know to what extent it was built.

Chen Chu instead came down in his spare time, in addition to drinking with Cheng Yanjin, he took the eldest princess Li Lizhen to ride a horse on the city wall to have fun. Originally, it was not possible to ride a horse on the city wall, but the eldest princess said that it was okay, then it must be possible.

It's about to be the New Year.

On this day, heavy snow fell in Chang'an City.

Soon there was knee-deep snow.

Li Er and several important ministers were standing under the eaves of the Ganlu Palace, admiring the snow.

Wang Qi said: "Your Majesty, my lords, Ruixue is a good year, this winter's heavy snow will be one after another, and there will definitely be a good harvest next year." ”

"What Lord Wang said is extremely true!"

"Yes, in recent years, the Tang Dynasty has been in good weather, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is all Your Majesty's merit."

Someone turned around and began to pat Li Er's ass.

Between the monarch and the minister, they are happy.

Li Er was in a good mood and said: "Come on, go and summon the prince and the king of Jin, such a beautiful scenery, they can also come and watch it......"

A eunuch hurried away.

Li Er thought for a while and said, "Go and call Chen Chu again." ”

Chen Chu?

The ministers were a little confused.

The crown prince and the king of Jin can be understood, after all, they are Li Er's two favorite sons.

Of course, Li Er's favorite princes actually have four.

One is the crown prince Li Chengqian.

One is Li Zhi, the king of Jin.

One is Li Tai, the king of Qi.

A Shu king Li Ke.

Now, Li Tainai, the king of Qi, is the governor of Yizhou, and he has not returned from leading the troops outside, and Li Ke, the king of Shu, was born to the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, so he must not appear here.

But what the hell is Chen Chu?

The ministers couldn't help it.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, why did you let Chen Chu enter the palace? ”

Li Er laughed and said, "Auxiliary, you are too worried, I just looked at the heavy snow, thinking that Chen Chu's mansion might have stopped, I wanted to summon him into the palace to see if he had the intention of admitting his mistake." ”

Everyone suddenly realized.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, Chen Chu was greedy at the beginning, and chose a piece of land of 500 acres, thinking that now he has realized his original mistake, coupled with the heavy snow in recent times, I am afraid that he has regretted not being at the beginning, at this time, let him enter the palace, seeing this situation, I am afraid that he will not be able to help but cry, and kneel on the spot to implore His Majesty to take back the original will." ”

The image of a poor guy is immediately revealed from the depiction of the eldest grandson Wuji.

Wang Jue, Fang Xuanling and others were all smiling.

In a short time, Li Chengqian and Li Zhi arrived.

It's just that everyone's energy is not focused on the two of them.

On the contrary, he was looking forward to Chen Chu who had not yet appeared.

Everyone also knows that now that the snow in Chang'an City is no longer up to his knees, and the eunuch who delivered the decree has not yet returned, Chen Chu is afraid that it will take a long time to enter the palace.

The crowd continued to enjoy the snow.

Suddenly, Chen Shuda pointed to the distance in surprise and shouted, "Look, what is that?" ”

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see that in the distance of the Ganlu Palace, under the tall palace wall, on the snow, a black shadow rushed towards this side, and the speed was extremely fast.

Li Er was surprised: "Whose horse is that, why is it so fast?" No, that's not a horse, in this weather, horses can't walk at all, what the hell is that, why is it so fast? ”

Everyone stared wide-eyed, but unfortunately the snow was too big and foggy to see clearly.

Just when everyone showed curiosity, the black shadow suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone took a closer look.

It turned out to be Chen Chu.

Chen Chu was wearing a leather coat, leather, purebred animal skin, leather gloves and a leather hat, and a cloth mask, all over his body, only two eyes and one nose were exposed, and the rest of the body was tightly wrapped.

He was riding on a strange wooden frame, and in front of the wooden frame were three big yellow dogs.

The big yellow dog also wears clothes made of animal skins.

It turned out that Chen Chu came by these three dogs.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

The two brothers, Li Chengqian and Li Zhi, stared at Chen Chu's car with wide eyes and curiously.

None of the people present had ever seen such a thing.

It's magical.

Li Er couldn't help but ask, "Boy Chen, what about the servant I sent to deliver the decree?" ”

Chen Chu opened the mask, took off his leather gloves, patted the snow on his buttocks, and said: "Father, that kid's carriage fell into the snow as soon as it left the Lu Guogong Mansion, and the wheels of the car fell off, I am afraid that I will not be able to come back for a while, and I heard that my father is looking for me urgently, so I will enter the palace......"

Li Er pointed to the strange thing and asked, "You came here on this thing?" ”

Chen Chu nodded: "Father, this is a sled, and it is a special ride on snowy days. ”

Only then did everyone see that this sleigh, sitting alone, would not fall into the snow.

Why did the carriage get trapped?

Won't this sleigh?

Everyone looked at Chen Chu curiously.

Chen Chu didn't bother to explain.

The principle is simple, the sleigh has a huge smooth plank underneath, while the carriage has only two wheels. This involves the knowledge of pressure, in short, the force area affects the pressure size, and the pressure determines whether it will fall into the snow.

It was not clear to explain to these natives for a while, but Chen Chu simply did not explain.

Cheng Yanjin stood up and asked, "Fifth brother, when did you get it, why don't I know Lao Cheng?" ”

Chen Chu smiled: "I made it up last night. ”

Cheng Yanjin looked at the three big yellow dogs and asked, "Can I sit?" With my physique, would you sit on it and get stuck in the snow? ”

Chen Chu pointed to the sleigh and said, "Fourth brother, you can try it." ”

"Try it, just try it."

Cheng Yanjin is a bold man of action.

While others were still skeptical about it, he was already on the sleigh.

Chen Chu stuffed his fingers into his mouth and whistled violently.

The three big yellow dogs galloped forward.
