Chapter 327: Straw Laying Method
Su Luosheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although Mojia Village's move cost a lot, it was a great benefit for Chang'an County.
Chang'an is the imperial capital, the requirements for the road are extremely high, Mo Jiazi will renovate the entire road surface, and the Ministry of Industry will come to accept it in the future, so it can naturally be rated as superior, and he will naturally share the honor and disgrace of this county order.
However, Su Luosheng had just returned to the county office, and he saw the overseer running over in a hurry and said, "Lord County Order, it's not good, after the Mo family turned over the road, he actually paved the road with straw. ”
"Straw paves the road, so how can you walk the pedestrian." Su Luosheng was shocked when he heard this.
In this era, there was no concept of tofu slag engineering, but Su Luosheng could imagine that paving the road with straw was softer than tofu slag.
When Su Luo rushed to the south of the city in a hurry, he saw that Merton was directing his men and horses to lay a thin layer of straw underneath.
In the face of the pointing and pointing of the people of Chang'an City, Merton was at ease and took care of his own laying.
"Lord Mo, what does this mean, the most important thing about the road is the foundation, how can you use straw to pave the road." Su Luosheng's face was pale.
"The county respects worry-free, this is the Mojia straw paving bottom construction method, the straw paving is to prevent the soil from falling softly, after the straw paving, the carrying capacity of the road will be doubled." Merton explained.
"Are you sure? If the roadbed is corrupted, you and I will not be able to eat and walk around! Su Luosheng's face was cloudy.
He looked up at the people watching around, and he didn't know how many eyeliners were in it, and what was happening on the official road now must have already spread to the ears of the hundreds of officials in the court.
Merton said confidently: "Don't worry, Lord County, this is related to the reputation of Mojia Village, how can Mo be joking." ”
Su Luosheng thought that the Mo family would contract this road every year in the future, and then he thought that the Mo family would not pit himself, so he was a little relieved, and looked at Mo Dun with a wry smile: "It is really difficult for the Mo family to behave in an ordinary way, but if there is such a behavior in the future, please inform the people of Chang'an City in advance, so as not to panic." ”
"Obey the orders of the prefectural commander." Mo Dun said absent-mindedly, as for Mo Jiazi not listening, then only God knows.
Su Luosheng sighed in his heart, working with the Mo family, it is impossible without a strong heart, so he can only secretly order the overseer to report any abnormal behavior in the future.
Not long after Su Luosheng left again, Qin Huaiyu and the three rushed over when they heard the news.
Seeing the straw that was already on the ground, they couldn't help but smack their tongues secretly, they knew what Mo Jiazi was doing, and it was impossible not to make some movement.
"Brother Mo, why bother, no matter how well you cultivate this year, after a year of crushing, it will definitely be full of holes." Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said.
Merton shook his head and said proudly: "That's because they haven't seen the Mo family build roads. ”
"Brother Mo has a trick up his sleeve." Cheng Chumo said curiously.
Merton's carriages streamed out of the South City Gate, revealing an inexplicable smile and saying, "This is just the beginning. ”
Under the puzzled gaze of the three people, they saw a cart of lime pulled out of Chang'an City, all scattered on the road that had just been plowed.
Subsequently, one by one, the waterwheels were filled with water and sprinkled on the lime, and when the water met the white ash, it soon bubbled up, emitting a large amount of white smoke.
All of a sudden, Mojia Village bought all the lime in Chang'an, and the official road in the south of the city was full of wolf smoke, more than 50 miles in length and width.
"Lord Qiyu County, the Mo family bought all the lime in Chang'an City and scattered it on the road."
Chang'an County Ya.
Su Luosheng listened to the report of the overseer with a blank face.
"Oh!" Su Luo responded indifferently and immediately bowed his head and continued to work.
The overseer said anxiously: "The county commander doesn't care, the official road has always been flying loess, if you add lime, wouldn't it be white dust in the sky." ”
Even if the dirt road is rammed and strong, and then under the wear of the wheels, it will still be crushed into very fine loess particles.
And now it's a good thing, Mo Jiazi sprinkled lime again, and the overseer couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the scene of pedestrians walking through the official road in the south of the city on a windy day in the future, and his whole body was white.
Su Luosheng had a breezy appearance, patted the shoulder of the overseer and said, "The Mo family has always acted wildly, if you could guess his thoughts, I am afraid that you would have been promoted step by step among high-ranking officials." ”
Under the admiring expression of the overseer, Su Luosheng turned around and walked to the side room, his face suddenly turned pale, now that the Mo family has ploughed all the official roads, what else can he do, who is willing to take over.
is what the Mo family has cultivated, he also gritted his teeth and admitted, now the only thing he can do is to believe in the Mo family, and believe that the Mo family can create a miracle again and build an official road that everyone is satisfied with.
Ministry of Industry!
"Lord Shangshu, the Mo family's road construction is really arrogant, does the Ministry of Industry come forward to reprimand him?"
The young eunuch was so angry that he sorted out all the road repairs in Mojia Village one by one and presented them to Duan Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.
Building roads is the task of the Ministry of Industry, and Mo Jiazi made such a big disturbance on the official road in the south of the city, how could the Ministry of Industry not know.
"Yes! Mo Jiazi is young and ignorant, how can he know the difficulty of building roads, if he messes around according to Mo Jiazi's character and delays the construction period, we are also deeply implicated. ”
Many officials of the Ministry of Industry also helped.
Duan Lun looked at all the road construction steps in the appearance of Mo Jiazi, his face became more and more solemn, and after a long time, he handed over the copywriting in his hand to the officials of the Ministry of Industry.
"This is the Mo family's method of building roads that will be supervised and sorted out, and you will all discuss it to see if it is nonsense, and whether it should be interfered with." Duan Lun summoned a group of officials from the Ministry of Industry.
The world can't understand Merton's behavior, but only Duan Lunxin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, doesn't think so in his heart, Mojia Village has repeatedly created miracles, and it turns out that many people who question Mo's behavior have been slapped in the face, and Duan Lun is not like stepping into the footsteps again.
The waiter of the Ministry of Works took a look, frowned and said: "The official road in the south of the city is indeed badly damaged, and the lower officials have gone to check, and it is indeed useless, the Mo family has less labor, many cattle and horses, and the technology is advanced, plough first and then press, which not only gives full play to the strength of the Mo family, but also can greatly shorten the working hours." ”
"Can the Ministry of Industry learn from this method in road construction in the future?" Duan Lun asked.
The waiter of the Ministry of Works shook his head and denied: "This method seems to be too fast, but it is very costly, and the cattle and horses that need to be used are not a small amount. ”
Now the Ministry of Industry repairs the official roads, all of which are used for forced labor, manpower to consolidate the official roads, manpower is free, loess is free, all the budget is not much at all, and why spend a lot of money to build roads!
The young eunuch sneered: "The official road in the south of the city is damaged by Mojia Village, and Mojia Village should spend more money, even if the plough road is correct, what about the straw paving?" Have you heard of it? ”
"This ......!"
For a moment, a group of officials of the Ministry of Industry suddenly shook their heads hesitantly, they had never seen such a method of road construction in the records of the Ministry of Industry throughout the past dynasties.
