Originally, the wind pan valley was beautiful.

But now, under the shoulders of more than 200 craftsmen and the people recruited by the prince's mansion from the major households downstream for half a month according to Wei Ming's method, a large number of mud layers have been gradually dug up, gradually revealing the hard crust under the ground.

Seeing that under the dusk, hundreds of people shouted trumpets to carry all kinds of appearances, Wei Ming couldn't help but have a sense of desolation and magnificence like seeing Yugong moving mountains.

"Waiter, you're here!"

As soon as they saw Xu Jin coming back with Wei Ming, Pei Mi, Hu Lijun, Wan An and others all came over to greet each other affectionately, while introducing the progress of the official kiln project.

But it is clear that Wei Ming is more concerned about the situation of the cement plant and the dam.

After all, if the cement plant and the dam cannot be built smoothly, then the location of the porcelain factory here is a big mistake.

may be out of the future, to be able to show enough attention to the relationship, not only Zeng Fanzhi and Wu Dong, but even Li Jiao, the king of Guangping, spent most of his time on the construction site.

It is also for this reason that after a little inspection of the construction of the official kiln, Wei Ming followed Zeng Fanzhi and Wu Dong to meet Li Jiao as soon as possible.

At the same time, there were several stonemasons and carpenters from the Construction Department, such as Chen Dong.

"Explode rocks with this gunpowder?"

After listening to Wei Ming's introduction, Chen Dong was respectful on his face, but his tone was quite sneering: "According to a certain point of view, the idea of waiting for you is naïve - this mountain rock is as hard as gold and iron, how can it be easily exploded as you think?" ”

"That's it!"

The rest of the people also chimed in: "Throughout the ages, the gravel of the mountain has been beaten by manpower, if it can really be exploded so easily, why wait until today?" ”

"You are so bold, you dare to be rude to Shangguan!"

Zeng Fanzhi scolded angrily: "Whether it is successful or not, you have to try it first, how can you say it when you see it?" ”

"Young Master Zeng, it's not that I don't want to try it first, it's really a little eunuch waiting for his method, and it's unreliable when I hear it!"

Chen Dong and the others argued: "Such a big mountain stone, if you dig a few small holes three or four feet deep, you can break it - so easily, don't say that we are waiting, just say that the young craftsman, do you dare to believe it in your heart?" ”

Zeng Fanzhi blushed suddenly, after all, he didn't believe it very much.

Chen Dong and the others immediately said: "I know that I am afraid that it will not work, so why should we waste our strength to dig a stone hole?" It's better to let me do it the old way, maybe I can waste a lot of time! ”

Looking at the expressions of a few people who don't understand and don't come to command blindly, Wei Ming laughed and said at the same time: "Chen Ziren, it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, because what I want is not for you to believe - you just do it!" ”

Although Chen Dong and the others are only Ziren, non-officials and officials, but at the project site, their words are even more effective than Zeng Fanzhi and Wu Dongdu-without him, just because he and others are experts, and they are the kind of people who practice to make true knowledge!

It is also for this reason that when they heard Wei Ming's words, Chen Dong's faces suddenly became ugly, and he glared at Wei Ming and said: "Prison Wei is not very old, I didn't expect this official authority to be really not small, but Prison Wait, the construction of this project is not about official authority, but about ability!"

King Ping, Zeng Shaojiang!

If you allow the prison to be oppressed by the officials, you can only do it, but we have to say ...... this."

Chen Dong and the others sneered: "In case it is not possible to open the mountain and break the stones according to the method of waiting, but it will affect the construction period, then you will have to find Wei Prison to take on this responsibility!" ”

Li Jiao looked at Wei Ming.

Wei Ming naturally couldn't back down.

Zeng Fanzhi and Wu Dong hesitated slightly, and then immediately opened their mouths and scolded Chen Dong and the others angrily: "What are you doing here? Did he want to bully Wei Prison and wait for the young official, so he didn't take him seriously?

A certain family can tell you now, etc., his words are equal to the words of the two of us and King Ping, you wait obediently to do it - if you dare to say more, you will not blame a certain person who does not know how to sympathize with your hard work, and the criminal law will serve! ”

After saying that, the two of them did not forget to warn in a loud voice: "Don't think that with the excuse now, you can play some tricks behind your back-tell you to wait, even if the construction period is affected in the end due to the failure of the method of waiting for the mountain to open the mountain and break the rock, you will still be the first to wait for you to settle the account - understand?" ”

Speaking of which, Chen Dong and the others had to nod their heads to accept the order no matter how angry they were, but before leaving, the corner of their eyes glared at Wei Ming fiercely to show their dissatisfaction.

"Thank you two young craftsmen, thank you King Ping!" Wei Ming thanked him.

"Xiao Lang is laughing!"

Zeng Fanzhi Wu Dong patted Wei Ming's shoulder and said with a dry smile: "He has no eyes and doesn't know your ability, but I absolutely believe in this method - I believe you should have tried it?" ”

Wei Ming shook his head.

Seeing that the smiles of the two suddenly froze on their faces, Wei Mingcai smiled: "Although I haven't tried it, I promise it will work!" ”

"You kid, are you trying to scare me to death?"

Zeng Fanzhi and Wu Dong punched Wei Ming a few times, and Li Li also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Xiaolang, your method must really be successful, otherwise the fiefdom of the Prince's Mansion River Valley, as well as the money and grain, will be spent in vain......

Wei Ming nodded, of course he knew what Li Jiao meant.

Obviously, both Li Heng and Li Jiao had only seen the magic of cement and the feasibility of using cement to build a dam.

But I don't know that this fired cement also needs to open the mountain and gravel!

If the old method is used to let the stonemasons chisel out the stone trough and stone nest, and then plug the stone to burn cement by the method of wood blister cracking stone, then the amount of work is not much less than that of directly taking stones to build a dam......

It was also when he arrived at the scene and generally knew how to burn the cement, Li Jiao began to make a secret mistake, saying that he didn't understand how to fire the cement earlier.

If he had known about such a firing, he dared to swear that he and Li Heng would never agree to this.

And now, with this explosive, it can blow up the rocks, although it is still extremely laborious to break them......

But compared to manually digging mountains and opening stones, it is already countless easier!

Thinking of this, Li Jiao couldn't help but look at those black gunpowder and fire twists, and looked at Wei Ming and said, "I don't know how you use these gunpowder to open mountains and break stones, this little man?" Can you tell the king first? ”

"Of course!"

Wei Ming nodded, and said that the key to detonating gunpowder was to create a small explosion first.

Of course, in addition to blasting, there are many other elements that are the key to rock breaking, such as digging a detonation hole in the right place......

However, Wei Ming did not say this, after all, there are many mechanical problems involved, and it is impossible for Li Li to understand.

With the support of Li Jiao and Zeng Fanzhi and Wu Dong, although he was a young official, no one in the audience dared not take him seriously.

However, obviously, because of this, the eyes of both craftsmen and people when they saw Wei Ming were not very friendly, and even many people would rather do more for themselves in their hearts, rather than wish that Wei Ming's method would not work......

"Look at his cow, when the method doesn't work, it depends on whether he is a cow or not!"

When everyone looked at Wei Ming's back, there was such a subtext in their eyes.
