Chapter 6 Cement
"If you can make it, give it to the second child."
On the way back to his palace, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but sigh secretly. Although he knew that the interests of salt were too big, and it was not something that he could think of as an idle king at all, especially the big killer of seawater salt, if he really let Han Wangfu control it, it would definitely be harmful to him, but when he thought that such a huge benefit would have to be given away when the time came, Li Yuanjia was very panicked.
Salt!
That's the salt of feudal society!
No matter who controls the technology of salting in seawater, and can keep it, it is the rhythm of the richest man in the world! Even if you don't have the ability to build a sales channel that covers the whole world, just by drying salt and selling it to those big families, you will inevitably be able to rival the country......
"Ahem, don't think about the impossible."
The more he thought about it, the more congested he became, Li Yuanjia simply shook his head and dispelled this unrealistic thought.
If it is something else to make money to buy ***, such as glass, white paper or something, Li Yuanjia doesn't care whether he is interested in it or not, but he must dare to put it in his own hands. But there is such a thing as salt......
If everything goes well, in the future, if the technology of drying salt in seawater is contributed to the second child, the best result should be to get a large reward, or give a dry stock or something, basically Li Yuanjia will be satisfied.
No matter how much he wanted, he didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't dare to take it.
"Boom!"
"Han Lucheng!"
Touching his waist that had been shaken by the carriage just now, Li Yuanjia frowned and shouted angrily.
"What do you command, my lord?"
Lifting the small curtain next to him, Li Yuanjia asked very unhappily: "Where is the king's new carriage?" Chen Mu: Have they done a good job? ”
"If you go back to the king, you will have ten more years at most, and you will definitely be able to do it."
After calculating the time for a while, Han Lucheng replied respectfully: "The main reason is that after Chen Mu and the others had the experience of the previous time, they wanted to make the carriage better this time, so it took more time...... In addition, now that the overturning workshop has reached a critical moment, Chen Mu and the others are also a little lacking in skills. ”
Hearing Han Lucheng say this, Li Yuanjia immediately understood.
Before, he asked Chen Mu to make another carriage for himself, and when he asked people to pass the word, he said that making a carriage must not affect the business of the overturning workshop, so he was not surprised to hear this.
With a move in his heart, Li Yuanjia then asked: "The rollover workshop has reached a critical moment?" How much did they build in October? ”
"Back to the king's words, they built two hundred and sixty units!"
"Oh?"
After hearing these words, Li Yuanjia's eyes instantly lit up: "You can already build two hundred and sixty units in a month?" So fast...... In this case, wouldn't there be 300 promises by the end of the year? ”
"Yes, King."
"Haha, yes, yes!"
Li Yuanjia's face immediately flashed with satisfaction, nodded again and again, and said happily: "You send someone to tell Chen Mu and Wang Pu that the matter of the carriage is not in a hurry, and the matter of the overturned workshop must not be affected!" ”
"Don't worry, I'll send someone over early tomorrow morning!"
"Hmmm......"
After thinking for a while, Li Yuanjia continued: "In addition, Your Majesty didn't say anything about our carriage, you just let Chen Mu and them build two more cars, and turn around and send them over to Fang Xianggong and General Yuwen......
……
After returning to the palace, Li Yuanjia immediately asked people to call Zhang Wan over.
Facing the director in charge of various construction matters in the mansion, Li Yuanjia directly asked, "How did I ask you to teach a few students?" How many people are currently available? ”
"If you go back to the king, there are at least three people who can be used at the moment!"
Although Li Yuanjia asked a little clueless, Zhang Wan still replied immediately.
From the day he studied with the two gentlemen, Zhang Wan was actually very mediocre. At first, he learned to read and write, as well as Tianzhu numbers and simple arithmetic, and later learned how to build sewers with Huang Zhongliang...... It was at that time that Zhang Wan began to show a talent for construction.
Later, he presided over the comprehensive renovation and renovation of this Han Wangfu.
So after the renovation of the palace was completed, the king gave Zhang Wan a task, that is, to build rows of workshops outside the city. From the beginning of glass, blacksmithing, etc., to the later dumping workshop, Zhang Wan has also matured day by day. So Li Yuanjia asked him to bring a few apprentices, so that he could be released when he needed it in the future.
It's just that after hesitating for a while, Zhang Wan still added: "King, although the three of you are already useful, but ...... The experience is still quite insufficient, and if it is a more important matter, I am afraid it is still a little difficult. ”
"Well, it doesn't matter."
After smiling, Li Yuanjia waved his hand and said, "I just plan to let them build a few pools, it's very simple." Well, pick two clever ones and let them come over tomorrow. ”
"Yes, my lord."
"Alright, let's go."
After waving his hand and sending Zhang Wan away, Li Yuanjia's eyes narrowed and pondered carefully.
Sea water drying salt, it's really simple to say.
When he watched "A Bite of China", he once saw the ancient method of drying salt, and when he was interested, he went to check the information, and he still vaguely remembers the process. It is nothing more than to introduce seawater into a large pool, dry the salt with the sun and sea breeze, and when it reaches a critical point, put the brine with a high salt content into another pool, so that the salt in the seawater can crystallize......
But it sounds simple, but whether it is also very simple to do, Li Yuanjia doesn't know.
"Anyway, just let them try."
After carefully recalling the method he saw, Li Yuanjia slowly had a basic concept - he was also a science student who was admitted to the university, and he still had some basic knowledge of physics and chemistry, so Li Yuanjia quickly thought of the concept of saturated solution, and also thought of why the seawater that had been exposed to a certain degree should be changed to a pool and let the salt crystallize in it.
"It's not hard to draw a sketch or something!"
Thinking of the new overturned car that had been done, Li Yuanjia pondered for a while, and then shook his head casually: "Try a few more times, there should be no problem, it is the bottom of the salt pond...... If you use the mud floor by the sea, will it be too dirty? ”
After carefully recalling the shots in "A Bite of China", the bottom of people's pools is very flat, as if it is a concrete floor?
"Cement...... It's not funny, is it? ”
Thinking of cement, the expression on Li Yuanjia's face became hesitant. Of course, he didn't know how to make cement, but after all, he had seen a lot of crossings, and knew how to burn stones to ashes and add something......
It's that simple, but will it work?
