There is no money and no food, and the reservoir and river embankment project in Nancheng County is interrupted halfway, which is naturally a joke.

The prestige of Xiaoyao Mansion and Ye Qing will inevitably plummet, which is very disappointing.

At that time, he will send people to blend in with the untouchables, taking the opportunity to fan the flames and channel their negative emotions.

Gathering the crowd to make trouble together, Xiaoyao Mansion and Ye Qing had to carry it, and the hundred officials condemned it one-sidedly, and Ye Zhen couldn't keep it even if he wanted to.

The King of Fufeng, the King of Hongnong, and the King of Chu followed and fell into the well.

I can't kill you.

The corners of the young man's mouth were also slightly upturned, but he still asked, "Father, what about the other methods?" ”

"Other methods, of course, are as simple as finding someone to kill Ye Qing directly, so once and for all." The face of the head of the Yang family was fierce, but he shook it gently:

"But this method is the most difficult to operate, and it can't leave hidden dangers, once it ignites the fire, you will be ruined."

After speaking, the head of the Yang family looked at his son.

This is his second son Yang Mingxuan.

The ability is stronger than Yang Mingtao, but he is also more careless, and he is more ruthless.

So the Yang family mainly warned Yang Mingxuan.

People of the family, unless necessary, do not use this most direct method.

Unless it's a last resort.

Yang Mingxuan also knew what the eyes of the head of the Yang family meant, and nodded hurriedly: "Father, don't worry, the child knows the severity, my Yang family has a big business, there is no need to take such a risk." ”

The Yang family is the strongest family in the Great Zhou, in other words, no matter who is the emperor, the Yang family is indispensable, and the Yang family needs to be wooed.

A thousand-year-old family, a hundred-year-old dynasty, 10,000 steps back, once the Son of Heaven is not reused, what does it matter, the next emperor ascends the throne.

The Yang family is still the henchman of the important ministers.

Besides, the Yang family still has the iron industry in their hands.

The Yang family's iron ore and smelting technology are unique to the Great Zhou, and the entire imperial court needs to rely on them.

The head of the Yang family continued with reassurance: "The rest will be mentioned in the future, we can kill the Xiaoyao Mansion with money and food alone, even if Ye Qing hooks up with the Hanzhong grain shop, I think those two low-key little guys will have other plans at this time!" ”

"Father said yes!"

His father didn't want to say more, and Yang Mingxuan didn't ask, because he thought he was an adult and had his own ideas, and he already had a draft in his heart and had a lot of dirty ideas.

He believed that with his intelligence and the energy of the Yang family, it was enough to snipe Xiaoyao Mansion and Ye Qing in one fell swoop.

…………

"Haha, hurry up, take me to see the lord......" Yi Da took four people and carried a few large jars into the mansion in a hurry, and went straight to Ye Qingxian's position.

The person who notified him came in advance to tell Ye Qing that the hind foot was easy to reach, and looking at him with a happy face, Ye Qing said:

"Yida, but the cement has been successful?"

"My lord, Yi Da Xing did not disgrace his life, and after countless failures, he finally succeeded in making a marked cement." Yida explained excitedly and excitedly:

"Lord, this cement is really the same as you said, the end is magical, mixed with water and sand and stones, after drying, it is as hard as a stone, it is simply wonderful."

Hearing Yida's report, Ye Qing knew that he was really successful, and the hardness of the mark was not bad.

Yida asked the big jar he brought to open, a stream of dust rose, Ye Qing took a few steps back, smelled the smell, and the whole person looked excited.

When the dust fell, Ye Qing took a closer look, and he didn't want to scratch it with something, and said with satisfaction:

"That's right, that's it, we have to hurry up production and continue experimenting at the same time, especially the kind of labeled cement used underwater."

"It's the lord, I thought that I had people step up training, just wait for Mr. Lu's people to build the factory building, and then they can run at full power, produce day and night, and supply them continuously." Yi Da swore that after speaking, he seemed to remember something and said:

"However, my lord, this thing is too much dust when it is produced, which makes people smell uncomfortable, otherwise the efficiency will be higher!"

"It's simple, I'll have people make a cotton mask, which can effectively stop the inhalation of dust." The occupational disease of the cement factory is lung disease, and the inhalation of cement powder is not too much, and it is easy to get disease and necrosis, so Ye Qing said:

"I'll have the glassmaker produce a batch of goggles to protect my eyes."

"The lord is benevolent and righteous, and Yida has thanked the lord for all the staff of cement production." Yida immediately bowed down.

Let's not talk about the mask, he doesn't know what it is anyway.

The goggles are made of glass, and they're worth a lot of money.

The glass can be sold outside with a piece, which can make people worry about food and clothing.

Ye Qingken used such a precious thing to protect ordinary employees, which shows his benevolence, righteousness and kindness.

It's just that Yida doesn't know how the production of glass is now, otherwise it wouldn't think so.

Ye Qing didn't explain much.

Glass is still in the stage of secrecy, glass mirrors and clear glass can produce the size of a washbasin.

Ye Qing was going to replace the windows in the house and the sun and moon skylights on the beams with glass first.

This way, the lighting is better.

At the same time, he also wants to build a few greenhouses and grow some vegetables to improve the lack of food in the middle of winter.

In short, there are too many things to do in Xiaoyao Mansion now.

"Call everyone over, take a look at the use of this cement, check its practicability, convenience and strength together, and have a number in mind when you supervise the project."

Ye Qing sent Yi Da away, and immediately ordered people to call Li Ru, Guo Jia, Shang Ying, Zhang Yi, Li Bing, Lu Ban, Cai Lun, and all the military generals who were available.

Cement is an artifact.

It was used in all national projects after the Great Zhou Empire, whether it was military or Ming.

It's vital and everyone needs to understand.

………………

In addition to the Yang family's shortcomings and loopholes in Xiaoyao Mansion, Ye Qing's shortcomings and loopholes, all forces have long been aware of this problem, and they need money and food to do any big thing.

Some people are useless, and money and food are king.

Therefore, after seeing that the Yang family bought and hoarded a large amount of grain, the Liu family in Hedong and the Cui family in Hongnong also joined in one after another, and threw down a sum of money to hoard it first.

The family has a habit of hoarding, and every autumn harvest is abundant, and when the price of grain is extremely low, they will buy a large amount of grain.

At the beginning of spring, when the people have no or little grain in their hands, they raise the price of grain and sell it.

So it's also their regular means of hitting others.

These first-class families began to do it, and other local families followed suit and bought it.

The family family made a move, and so did the civil service.

And although the Chu Yue family did not have the financial resources to buy grain to contain Ye Qing, they could be stuck in Wuguan.

Let Chu Yue prohibit the grain of Chu Yue from flowing into Da Zhou.

You must know that Chuyue is the land of corn, a land of abundant products, and exports a lot of grain to the Great Zhou every year.

These factions of people, one is purchased internally, and the other is forbidden.

Soon, the grain in Chang'an City was decreasing, and the price of grain rose in response.

Shen Wansan, who was in charge of purchasing food for Xiaoyao Mansion, was so anxious that his head was sweating, and he hurriedly entered Xiaoyao Mansion.

"My lord! The big thing is not good, the price of grain in Chang'an has risen sharply by several layers, and it has not decreased, I am afraid that it will double and rise sharply if it continues, and our commercial bank will have no money to buy grain......"
