Chapter 1097: Transporting Grain

Chapter 1097 Grain Transportation

Su You said: "The eldest princess of Shu helped Wei'er to take care of the pharmacy, and the shops that she used to marry, Zhuangzi, are now all taken back to their own management...... was originally a capable person, but he used to be arrogant with his horses. ”

"I hope you can learn some lessons, the way of husband and wife is not so easy."

Speaking of this, Zhang Dunli suddenly laughed: "The way of husband and wife...... Your Dasu is still so narrow! Chen Jichang is famous all over the world now! ”

……

The measure of transporting grain by water from Hanshui to Shangzhou is now in charge of Chen Wei and Su Shi.

The encounter between Chen Yu and Su Shi is also legendary, when Su Dongpo arrived in Huangzhou, it was still snowing, Su Dongpo took his family along the stream, and he did not forget to chant poetry.

The spring comes to the valley and the water is murmuring,

Scorching plum blossoms and grass thorns.

One night the east wind blew the stone cracked,

Half with the flying snow to pass the mountain.

Who comforts the depths of wine?

It's more sad to open from boredom......

As soon as I chanted here, I saw a person coming on the road ahead, wearing a boxy high hat and holding a bamboo cane, and the more I looked at it, the more familiar it felt.

When the man approached, Su Shi couldn't help but be surprised and delighted: "Ji Chang, why are you here?!" ”

Chen Yu smiled strangely: "Why is Zizhan here?" ”

Su Shi said that Lao Tzu was demoted to Huangzhou. Chen Jichang "bowed down and didn't answer, looked up and smiled", beckoning Dasu's family to his house to rest.

It turned out that after Chen Yu received Su You's letter, he immediately sold his huge garden in Luoyang, and at the same time sold all his fields in Shaanxi totaling thousands of acres.

chivalrous and chivalrous, a promise, is such a person.

However, people become a bit Buddhist when they reach middle age, Dasu "practice" in Dongpo, Chen Jichang also inexplicably began to understand Buddhism, Dasu is known as Dongpo monk, Chen Jichang is also known as Longqiu monk.

The two are so good together, but everyone is unforgiving, and they all say that the other party is fake cultivation.

Two middle-aged naughty boys met a place and returned it, chatting in the same room, forgetting any health, chatting and often staying awake all night.

Wang Yanzhi and Wang Chaoyun are used to Dasu, but the Liu family of Chen Yu's family is different.

Chen Ji often invited guests, and if he called a prostitute, Liu would knock on the wall with a big stick across the wall, shouting and scolding, and often startled the guests to scatter.

So Su Shi wrote the famous poem "Hedong Lion's Roar" in a letter to his friend Wu Deren, making fun of Chen Jichang.

Wu Deren is not a good bird, he really has no Deren, and he takes it out and hypes it up - Dasu has a new poem again! Come and see!

A later allusion was passed on.

Huang Tingjian wrote to Chen Jichang after he found out: "When I tried Mrs. Liu, I needed medicine, and I wanted to gradually seek pure happiness in the twilight of my father, but the concubine had nothing to do, so what did Mrs. think about and cause illness?" ”

The heart of schadenfreude is overflowing.

……

"Ahh Chen Yu was wearing a cloak and a hat, standing by the surging Han River, watching the large fleet begin to move.

Da Su is also a hemp shoe and hat, his robe is tied up on his belt, and his back is already wet: "Cold? When you go back, remember to boil some ginger soup and drink it. I have the Holy Sanzi Fang handed down from Chao Valley. ”

Chen Yu glanced at Da Su: "It's okay, I've been sneezing all the time these days, there should be more and more people who are thinking about me, and don't emphasize the word 'self', my lady is very virtuous." ”

"Huh?" Seeing that Chen Yu began to stare again, Da Su hurriedly said, "Yes, yes...... I see that you are going to get sick like this, and you are still healthy, you are really like a parrot Zen master with harmful feet, and a concubine of the Yellow Gate of the Five Passages Balloon! ”

Bad feet are lame, lame Zen masters, not good at business, only know that people are like parrots; Five-way balloons, air leaks everywhere; The concubine of the lieutenant can only be seen but not used. Su Shi used this to make fun of Chen Yu's cultivation of useless Zen.

"You care about me!" Chen Wei looked at Da Su with contempt: "It's not that you can't make Buddhist scriptures?" ”

Da Su tilted his head: "How do you know that I can't?" ”

Chen Wei said: "The Buddhist scriptures are samadhi, and your words are said through thought, so you don't know how to make Buddhist scriptures." ”

Da Su smiled: "You don't know this, I can already blurt out without thinking." If you don't believe you're referring to something at random, I'll blurt it out to you. ”

Chen Yu turned around and left: "I won't fall for you!" Want to come back?! You're not a samadhi, you've written everything! ”

The two of them were bored before, and they didn't do anything serious all day long, emulating the Jin people to talk about Xuanlun Buddha.

Da Su disagreed with Chen Yu's parrot Zen, thinking that it was "not saving the heart, then making a form, this is still not standing, what can be done." ”

So he teased him, saying that he had recently understood Buddhism and was already able to point to things and understand the mind.

Chen Yu didn't believe it, so Da Su asked him to point to something casually, and he could open his mouth to come to the article.

Chen Yu pointed to the fish pillow crown on his head: "Then you do this." ”

Da Su smiled: "I'll come, you will write." ”

As a result, Da Su not only really blurted out, but also sprinkled non-stop, so fast that Chen Yu didn't have time to dip in ink, and really thought that Da Su had realized the Zen machine, and was shocked that the heavens worshipped it.

It took a few days to react, Da Su is slipping around and wrapping up the baby!

It wasn't until Su You's letter came that the two of them got down to business, and there was a lot less nonsense.

On the way back, Chen Yu said to Dasu: "It's better for you to exchange the old with the new and send the old grain to Shaanxi, which is 20% cheaper than sending new grain, and it is 500,000 stones." ”

Da Su said: "There are still many things, the warehouse can be regarded as vacated, and it has to be repaired urgently, and the new grain will have to be put into the warehouse soon!" ”

……

Xingluocang, Shen Kuo finally received the first batch of grain this year.

The old site of Xingluocang was once buried in the wilderness, Shen Kuo consulted the local government records, consulted the old man, and found the Heishiguan ferry in the Tang Dynasty.

According to historical records, the opposite bank is Xingluocang.

Although after the war at the end of the Tang Dynasty, Xingluo Cang had already been destroyed by fire, but those large warehouse pits could still be used!

The whole warehouse city, east to west as long as a thousand meters, north and south wide up to 350 meters, the warehouse is a kiln type, the superstructure has completely disappeared, leaving only the outer diameter of 17 meters, the inner diameter of 10 meters, up to 10 meters deep huge warehouse pit!

One such warehouse pit can store 500,000 catties of grain, and such a warehouse pit is lined up from east to west, north and south, and there are as many as 700 of them.

There are still five hundred that can be repaired and put into use!

Moreover, on the west and south sides of Cangcheng, there are also Cao canals dug in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and after repair, Cao boats can be directly transported here.

Shen Kuo immediately wrote to Zhao Ji, requesting the repair of the Xingluo Cangcao Canal and the repair of the warehouse, one warehouse can hold 5,000 stones, and the entire Cangcheng can hold 25 million stones of grain and grass!

Shen Kuo also studied the methods of the ancients for how to keep this kind of warehouse mostly underground, after digging the big pit, first grill it at the bottom with fire, then avoid applying green plaster mud, then lay wooden boards, nail wooden beams, lay wooden boards, add straw mats, and then store grain.

The mouth of the kiln is reinforced with special rammed earth, which is covered with mud walls and tiles, and ditches are opened around to drain the water.

However, that was the method of the Tang Dynasty, and now the Great Song Dynasty has konjac gum, ground glue, cement, and moisture-proof and water-proof measures must be countless times better than those of the Sui and Tang dynasties.

After bidding, this order was won by the Sitong Engineering Division, and now the first batch of five warehouses has just been built, and the first batch of grain has arrived.

The steam engine rumbled, and the long belt rollers were driven, and the Kudings guarding the barn loaded the ship's grain into sacks, and then threw them onto the belt, and the grain bales were carried by the leather bags and drove automatically up the slope, and the commander was dumbfounded.

Father...... Lao Tzu still wants to go to Luoyang for a few days, appease a few little ladies, and eat yokan and steamed buns......

This Nima, it seems that the grain can be unloaded in half a day!

Shen Kuo stood on the high hillside, in the black smoke and water vapor of the boiler, shaking a goose feather fan in his hand, and looked like a demon who had attained the Tao: "Zhuge Kongming wooden cow and flowing horse, can you pass this?" ”

Ambassador Bian Shangcang is a military leader born in the right class, and he is full of sycophants: "The bachelor is extremely wise, I don't think I will lose to that Zhuge Liang!" But...... What about those caves that were blown up over there in Luokou? ”

Shen Kuo's expression froze for a moment: "It's warm in winter and cool in summer, so it's a workshop for weapon repair and stacking weapons and military materials!" ”

The military leader smiled: "That's not bad, since it's warm in winter and cool in summer, I'll also buy an area for the bachelor as a resting place." ”

Shen Kuo was so frightened that the goose feather fan almost fell off, warm in winter and cool in summer, that is to properly keep explosives and fierce fire oil, you arranged for me to live next to the powder keg?

"This is a non-proposal! If this official is honest and honest, how can he covet happiness? Since His Majesty ordered me to raise Xingluocang, of course the government office must be placed in Cangcheng! ”
