In recent decades, there is another very important reason for the further popularization of tall stone buildings, that is, a few decades ago, the Krull Kingdom invented cement that can be produced industrially, and the cement is obtained after firing and grinding with limestone and clay, also known as Kruer cement, which can be industrially produced, although it has developed slowly after being introduced to Daheng, it has gradually developed and is used in construction.

In this way, cement stone type buildings are further popularized.

However, this type of building is still relatively expensive, so ordinary houses generally do not use these, and often use a mixed type of building of fired masonry, stone and wood, and some local houses are pure wooden buildings.

Most of the ordinary houses in the city are two- or three-story multi-family townhouses with detached families, and if they are some wealthy areas in the suburbs, they are mainly single-family small buildings, and there are often grassy courtyards in front of and behind the houses.

On the whole, Daheng's city is unique on the blue star, and it is also different from the layout of the cities of the earth in Lin Ziran's memory.

One of the most obvious differences is that the medium and large cities of Daheng are generally in the inner and outer city mode.

Cities are divided into inner and outer cities, among which the planning of the outer city is often a very standard grid plan, but in the case of the inner city, there is everything.

Some were planned hundreds of years ago or more, with a jumble of winding paths.

In some cities, the inner city is neatly planned and the roads are wide and neat.

This is because these inner cities are many years ago, usually hundreds of years ago or even thousands of years ago, but with the development of cities, especially in the last 100 years, after the rapid expansion of the area of each city, the outer city has gradually developed.

Nowadays, some large cities often have common characteristics, such as the existence of inner and outer cities, and the inner cities are generally the seat of administrative institutions, with tall and thick walls.

After all, the inner city of many big cities used to be a fortress!

In other cities, there is a big difference between the inner city and the outer city, but here in Jingshi, the difference between the inner and outer city is even greater!

When Lin Ziran rode into the inner city by horse-drawn carriage, all he saw were tall brick buildings, and the roads were equally wide, and stone roads were generally paved.

Clean and tidy, magnificent atmosphere!

This is the feeling that the inner city of Jingshi gave to Lin Ziran!

However, for the sake of this clean and tidy, magnificent atmosphere, the Ji Dynasty has invested a lot of money in repairing the inner city every year for three hundred years, and Zhao Laoqi and their predecessors have also invested huge manpower and material resources in order to let Lin Ziran arrive and see a clean and tidy, magnificent inner city.

Tens of thousands of people were invested in the engineer division alone, and more than 100,000 people were requisitioned!

All kinds of construction materials, including stone, Krull cement, and timber, were transported by ship or train.

It took a lot of manpower and material resources to repair and renovate the capital area in a short period of time, such as dredging drainage canals, restoring roads and buildings, and so on.

Even so, they were only able to repair and renovate some of them, mainly the small inner city and a few main roads, and as for the large urban areas in the outer city, they only cleared the ruins and basically restored the roads.

However, it is impossible for Lin Ziran to go to other places in the outer city to see it!

Time is tight and funds are limited, Zhao Laoqi and they chose to focus on repairing the places where Lin Ziran can see, as for Lin Ziran who can't see it in a short time, there are more ruins temporarily, and there is no big problem if they are in tatters, and they will do it slowly in the future.

After all, no matter how capable Zhao Laoqi is, it is impossible to repair a huge capital area in just one or two months, and it is very good to be able to repair the inner city that is already small and not seriously damaged, and then complete the repair of the main road from the railway station to the inner city.

These, in fact, Lin Ziran himself knows, but the courtiers don't say it, he also pretends to be confused!

Not to mention deviating from the original route and going to other shabby neighborhoods to have a look.

After all, today is a good day, there is no need to toss, everyone is not happy!

If you really want to be careful, who let the Imperial Army shoot out countless shells during the Battle of Beijing, when the city was first attacked, it was block by block, and some blocks that had been fiercely fought were basically in ruins.

After entering the inner city, the convoy continued to reach the Royal Palace!

This imperial palace was built by the Ji royal family more than 300 years ago, and although it covers a very large area, the construction area is not large, because a large area belongs to grassland.

The main building of the palace is a concave structure palace located in the front half, covering an area of incomparably large, with a frontal length of more than 600 meters, and a large number of white marble is used as the building material, because this palace uses a large number of smooth marble like mirrors, and the mirror river is the mother river of the great Heng people.

So this palace is also called the Palace of Mirrors.

And the Mirror Palace, which has a huge construction area, is only a part of the Imperial Palace!

In front of the Mirror Palace, there is a huge square, and the left, right and rear positions are large green areas, and there are some outbuildings in the outer areas, which are the offices and living places of the institutions directly under the imperial family, but they are covered by a large area of tall vegetation.

On the whole, there are still relatively few buildings in the entire palace, and a large area belongs to green vegetation.

Beyond the palace walls, there are other office buildings in the inner city and some of the residences of the magnates, which are also very neatly planned and have a lot of vegetation.

More than half of the land area in the entire inner city is vegetation, and the real building area is actually not large.

In fact, the inner city was not like this more than 100 years ago, and the reason why it became was because more than 100 years ago, the Ji royal family planned the inner city, and after moving the original ordinary residential areas and commercial areas in the inner city to the outer city, the inner city was then renovated, making the inner city wide and tidy.

This is also the reason why after Lin Ziran entered the inner city, the inner city he saw was clean and tidy, and it was magnificent.

After entering the palace, Lin Ziran took a brief look at the Mirror Palace, and after seeing it, he knew that this Mirror Palace was really worthy of its name, and the large marble floor was as smooth as a mirror, and it was very dazzling.

After a brief browsing, Lin Ziran soon held a simple cabinet meeting in the Mirror Palace, mainly to discuss many matters related to the stationing in Beijing, after all, there will definitely be a lot of messy things when you first arrive, although most of the things don't need Lin Ziran to worry about, there will naturally be courtiers to deal with, but some still need to be handled by Lin Ziran personally.

The cabinet meeting did not last long, and after it was over, Lin Ziran summoned Wu Guanlin and other important generals and simply held a small military meeting.

In the past few days, I have been busy entering the Beijing Division, and many military affairs have also been delayed, although these delayed military affairs are not a major matter, an important matter, but we also need to hurry up and deal with them, otherwise they will accumulate and become hidden dangers in the future.

These delayed things are not important things, Lin Ziran dealt with them one after another.

But when he was dealing with military affairs with a group of generals, there was a report outside, and there was an urgent military report in the direction of Quping Naval Base!
