It's been more than ten days, and the construction process of Zhao's mansion is still the same as it was at the beginning, the wall on the foundation has been built, but the buildings in the courtyard still haven't improved.

Zhao Qi didn't like the Warring States period of doing things according to orders, and the twenty acres he said would be twenty acres, and there would be no more than one acre, and there would be no one less acre. This is why the courtyard wall is built before building a mansion, Zhao Qi doesn't understand this way, isn't it much easier for you to build a house first and build a wall layout? These guys are just brainless, but it's okay, the villa that Zhao Qi planned before can be implemented.

After arriving in Changxing Town, the guards who supervised the construction of the mansion arranged accommodation for Zhao Qi and several carpenters he brought over, the carpenter was very shocked, he had lived in Xianyang for most of his life, and the palace guards naturally knew each other, and this child who seemed to be only eight or nine years old shouted at them, and these people were actually very respectful.

I can't figure it out, except for the royal family, the palace guards generally rarely listen to outsiders, let alone those who are so respectful, many of the princely descendants who are a little bit more disrespectful do not have this kind of treatment, and they can't help but think a little higher about this little boy, but how do they know that the reason why these guards are submissive to Zhao Qi is not in the face of the queen.

Zhao Qi doesn't care so much, what is the difference between the palace guards and the outside? When he arrives here, they are all coolies, and besides, these people were originally arranged for him by Huayang, so what will he do if he doesn't hurry up and enjoy himself now?

Overnight, I drew a general appearance of a villa on paper, a two-story small western-style building with a balcony and a garden. Ming Hong Sanbao summoned the head of the craftsman, and when he showed him the drawings, he was immediately stunned by this old-fashioned old craftsman.

"This ...... This is not the building that should exist in the world, people say that the little lord is a fairy, the old man didn't believe it before, but now he believes it, he believes it, I'm afraid it's where the gods live, right? Since ancient times, there have been many intelligent and outstanding people, but no one has ever thought of using this way to build houses on top of the house to save land, the second floor can live in people, the first floor can raise livestock, and the yard can be used to grow some vegetables, which is really practical. The old man was full of praise for Zhao Qi's drawings, he had lived most of his life, and he had never seen anyone who could use every inch of land to the extreme.

Zhao Qi was proud and happy when he heard the old craftsman's evaluation at first, but his face immediately darkened when he heard it, who the hell wants to raise pigs in the villa? If you really do that, you will be a loser, Zhao Qi can't do that, so he waved his hand impatiently and said, "You just say that you can't cover it."

"This little lord is embarrassed by the old man." Who knew that the old craftsman actually shook his head, "This building does save land to a great extent, but young master, you must know that the order given to us by the queen mother is that every wall of this Zhao Mansion must be made of stone, and just building a single-story traditional courtyard is a big project, and it is a fool's dream to get a large number of stones to a place one zhang high." ”

Listening to the old man's words, Zhao Qi frowned, touched his chin and paced in place, the old man was right, this is a big problem, this problem has to be solved, it is his negligence, people in this era do not have as many tools as in later generations, it is difficult to get large stones to the second floor with manpower alone, and so on...... Tool?

Zhao Qi suddenly laughed, holding the old man's hand and shaking it around, making the old craftsman confused.

Zhao Qi remembered the pulley of the later generations, called a few carpenters he brought over, drew a sketch and handed it to the carpenter, and then pulled the confused old craftsman into the house to drink.

The carpenters of this era were skilled, and it didn't take long for them to come in with two hollow, round wheel-like wooden plates with shallow grooves on the sides, which were the simplest pulleys in Zhao Qi's opinion.

took the pulley from the carpenter's hand, then ripped off a strip of cloth from Hong Sanbao's clothes, and went out with the old craftsman.

Zhao Qi broke off two wooden sticks from the tree and stuffed them into two pulleys, one handed to the old craftsman to let him stand, and the other squatted on the ground with his hand, and then tied a stone to the cloth strip and stuck it in the groove.

The old craftsman was still a smart man, looking at the slowly rising stones, he was still a little confused at first, but after Zhao Qi impatiently did this action twice, the old man suddenly realized, his fingers trembled and he held the two roulette wheels in his arms, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes nodding.

"This is a common application of roller skating, which is a subject called physics that I studied, and if it works well, it will have a great effect on the construction industry in Daqin." Zhao Qi finished this sentence with his hands behind his back.

The old craftsman took a long time to recover from the shock, and muttered: "The old man has lived a lifetime, you are the smartest young man I have ever seen, as if as long as you are there, all the problems in this world will be solved, the old man really admires, with a genius like you, the old man feels that there is no reason why the future of Daqin is not brilliant, the old man has a hunch, I Daqin, will usher in an unprecedented prosperous era!"

"The old uncle has won the award." Zhao Qi arched his hand and said humbly, the old man spoke very well, and he also understood that this was from the heart, after all, this pulley contributed too much to the construction industry, and the old craftsman relied on this to eat.

The old man nodded, followed Zhao up to the house, picked up the drawings from the desk, and then kicked into his arms, and said: "Little young master, I have taken over your new mansion, and the queen has only divided twenty acres of land for us, as for how to build it inside, it depends on us, your house is very well designed, with this pulley, you can see the Zhao Mansion you imagined for a month."

The old craftsman left, Zhao Qi leaned on the soft couch and took a deep breath, since he followed Yingzheng, he had an ambition, that is, to build Daqin into an unprecedented great country, even if it was not as luxurious as later generations, he wanted to let it surpass the peak period of the Tang Dynasty.

This road is very long, Zhao Qi knows very well, the construction of Daqin is far from as simple as imagined, and after Yingzheng dominates the world, Daqin's territory will be the pinnacle of China, and what he has to do is not only political, economic, and military construction, but also cultural.

Ideological backwardness was the biggest criticism of the feudal era, and Zhao Qi planned to build a school and open the same courses as later generations, focusing on educating the pedantic minds of people in this era. Chemistry and physics, which are beneficial to economic development, are the top priorities, and I believe that with his relationship with Yingzheng, it should not be difficult to fund him to run a school.

Zhao Qi looked at the ceiling, he had advanced ideas far beyond this period, and with the help of an emperor like Yingzheng, he was destined to shine in this era.
