"Uncle, I was looking for someone two days ago, but Lao Li Tou hasn't seen anyone these days." Xiao Ran said with a bitter face, the leader of his dignified family has now become his uncle's follower.

“...... Damn, the thatched huts were full a few days ago, so how did you guys get to the thatched huts these days? ”

"When I was relieved, I went to the thatched house used by the maids, but I didn't ...... there. Ahem, settle it here. ”

"Is that okay?"

Gu Bei was speechless for a moment, touched his stomach and began to walk out.

Xie Da Hand went to the maid's thatched house, Xie Xiao Hand is here, what is the special operation?

I can't say that I have to borrow the thatched house of the female dependents, so I walked directly towards the thatched house along a doorway.

Seeing that there was no one left and right, Gu Bei swished into the women's thatched house with his pants up, Malegobi's, it's too smooth, it's not good, as soon as you are smooth, God will be unhappy, and obstacles will be set up for you everywhere.

Half a cup of tea passed, Gu Bei whistled and walked out of the thatched house, and saw the lady passing by. Seeing the lady look over, Gu Bei, who was very thick-skinned, did not forget to fly with a wink.

Bai Luoshi's beautiful eyes looked at Gu Bei strangely and walked out, why did this husband come to the women's thatched house.

Gu Beigang wanted to stretch out his claws and touch the lady's jade hand, but Bai Luoshi, who was so frightened, jumped back directly, and said angrily: "What are you touching, have you washed your hands?" ”

"Uh, forgot, forgot!"

The two of them chatted about the thatched house while walking, and smelling the stench of the thatched house, Bai Luoshi was obviously a little angry.

"What's the matter with that manure digger, the entire street of the Guogong Mansion has been blocked by the manure pit recently."

"Lady, you are asking the wrong person, in the past, Lao Li seemed to be very diligent, he would go to the street every day to shout, give him a hundred yuan, and he would help dig out the dung."

"Okay, don't say it, it's disgusting or not, since you know Lao Litou, hurry up and find him, now as soon as you walk into this street of Guogong Mansion, that smell can make people stunned!"

Gu Bei was a little difficult, how could the lady let him find it, how could he possibly know where the dung digger lived? Now that the thatched houses in Baifu are full, Gu Bei has no idea, so he can only force Xiao Ran to find someone to dig out the dung, he can't wait, in case Lao Li Tou doesn't come, everyone will hold back and not solve the physiological problem?

Xiao Ran made a difficulty, he used to be a general, but now he has become a follower looking for a dung digger, since he followed his uncle, his status has dropped again and again, at first he was still the commander of the family, he was reduced to a personal bodyguard, and now he is an errand runner......

Gu Bei saw that Xiao Ran was constipated, so he followed him to the street, anyway, there was nothing important.

Lao Li Tou is in the Beicheng area, and he is also a celebrity, and few people don't know his name.

In the Xia Dynasty, if you want to say that your profession is lowly and despised, then the dung diggers are even more cheap. Lao Li Tou is in his forties, and he hasn't married a daughter-in-law yet, so he knows how miserable this profession is.

It is precisely because of the miserable profession that there are only a few dung diggers in the entire Yingtianfu, but every household is inseparable from the dung diggers, so most people in Beicheng know Lao Li Tou.

After inquiring all the way, I finally knew where Lao Li Tou lived, and several people turned around and finally found Lao Li Tou's residence.

A low courtyard wall, a tattered wooden door.

Gu Bei reached out to push the door, but he didn't push it, so he had to knock on the door, but there was no response for a long time.

Gu Bei's temper has also come up, Uncle Ben is also the son-in-law of the Guogong Mansion, and he comes to deliver business, do you still have a temper as a dung digger?

"Old Li Tou, get out of here, if you don't come out again, Uncle Ben will kick the door!"

As a result, there was still no movement in the courtyard.

I heard that Lao Li Tou usually likes to drink two sips, but the amount of alcohol is not good, is he drunk and falls to the ground and does not wake up?

Gu Bei made a look, Xiao Ran rushed up, kicked the broken wooden door, and the unlucky wooden door instantly hit the ground.

There was such a big movement, there was no reaction in the house, Xiao Ran scolded angrily, "How much wine did this old Li Tou drink, he won't drink to death, right?" ”

"Hurry up, stop talking nonsense, kick the door open!"

Anyway, the door is kicked open, and it's not a bad door, so it's a big deal to lose money later.

Xiao Ran slapped another "shadowless foot", and the door of the house creaked and fell apart.

Dust was everywhere and the house was dark.

A stinking smell wafted out suddenly, so smoke that Gu Bei and the others all covered their noses.

Gu Bei frowned, and sighed in his heart, this is the smell of corpses, it stinks like this, and it has been dead for several days.

Now in the hot summer, it stinks like this, and it will produce epidemics, Xiao Ran tore off a piece of cloth, dipped it in the water tank in the courtyard, covered his mouth and nose, and entered the house.

Gu Bei was waiting outside, he really couldn't stand the smell, and soon, Xiao Ran came out from the corpse and shook his head at him.

! It's really evil today! Uncle Ben personally came out to look for the dung digger, but he didn't expect to encounter this. ordered Xiao Ran to spend money to hire some people to collect Lao Li's body, and walked out.

He is now more concerned about the thatched house in the house, how to go back to the errand, the lady is a little clean, he wants to quickly find a dung digger to clean up the thatched house.

encountered bad luck, Gu Bei had no choice but to ask Xiao Ran to send someone to find other dung diggers. On the way, Gu Bei instructed a general to go outside the city, took out a few drawings and handed them to him.

As a modern man, he had long had enough of the thatched houses of the Xia Dynasty, and it was simply a kind of torture.

Back in the house, Gu Bei was locked in the study, since the ancient thatched house is not suitable, let's build a modern bathroom! With this in mind, I picked up a pen and paper and began to sketch a sketch.

Gu Bei kept smearing and sketching on the paper, anyway, the tiles have already been fired, and when the time comes, paste them into the bathroom, and get rid of a modern bathroom.

The flushing toilet and drain pipe have been sent, I believe that the shopkeeper Zhou should be able to burn it, and even Gu Bei thought about whether to dig another biogas digester by the way, clean and hygienic, and can make fertilizer, and the biogas can also be lit to boil water, and it can be counted in one fell swoop.

The draft was drawn, Gu Bei admired it for a long time, and was very satisfied, now it is time to think about it, where to build the bathroom, it must be close, so that the thatched house will not run far.

After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Bei suddenly remembered that there was a utility room next door to the lady, and when the time came, just move the sundries away, so that it would be convenient for the lady to go to the thatched house, and now the main thing is to get the lady.

So, Gu Bei found Bai Luoshi and said, "Lady, there is a utility room next door to you, why don't you change it to a bathroom!" ”

"Bathroom?"

"Oh, that's what we call a thatched house......"

"Nope." Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Bai Luoshi, "Gu Bei, what do you think, how can you put the thatched house next door to me, you want to smoke me to death, you want to let you go next door!"

'I'd like to think there's a study next door to me'

"Guarantee for the husband absolutely...... No smell!" Bai Luoshi's eyes were not good, and a pair of eyes were on fire, so Gu Bei had no choice but to say his idea again, and repeatedly promised that there was no smell.

Seeing that the lady was suspicious, Gu Bei almost swore to the sky, and made many promises, and Bai Luoshi reluctantly agreed to his transformation.

After getting the lady, Gu Bei asked his subordinates to invite Li Laosan and asked him to call more masons.

Not long after, Li Laosan came to the courtyard with more than a dozen masons, and Gu Bei didn't talk nonsense, and asked them to dig a circular deep pit in a vacant lot, and they needed to dig a ditch from the utility room to lead to this deep pit.

No one could understand what he had done, and these masons, including Li Laosan, were confused, but they still started construction according to Gu Bei's drawings.

After handing over the drawings to Li Laosan, Gu Bei didn't care, just waiting for the materials he fired himself to be sent tomorrow.

Early the next morning, several ox carts came to the suburban kiln, all of which were materials ordered by Gu Bei. These strange things pulled on the ox cart made the maids in the house talk a lot, and they were all speculating about what the uncle was doing.

Gu Bei checked the things sent, especially the burned toilets and drains, not to mention, the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in Daxia was really good, and it was no worse than those home improvement equipment in the 21st century.

He picked up a piece of this beautifully patterned tile and flicked it with his finger, and the tile made a crisp and pleasant sound.

"Lady, how about you look at this tile? Hehe, it's sure to look beautiful in the bathroom. ”

Bai Luoshi didn't speak for a long time, frowned and thought for a long time and didn't know what it was, and asked uncertainly: "Tiles?" It looks very exquisite, but how do you paste it? ”

"This husband has his own tricks!" Gu Bei looked at the broken porcelain loaded on an ox cart and smiled.

"Lao Xiao, go and call more than ten subordinates to come over!"

The people of the Bai Mansion had already gotten up, each busy with their own work, and the generals had nothing to do, and they were practicing boxing on a wide ground in the middle of the house. With the uncle's order, the subordinates named by Xiao Ran left their work and went to the courtyard of the uncle, and even the housekeepers and maids were curious to follow the onlookers, all wanting to see what the uncle was doing.

Seeing that my uncle actually ordered more than ten subordinates to grind two cars full of broken porcelain pieces into powder with stone grinding, the maids who had used the "new type of fat powder" next to them twitched the corners of their mouths.

The "new type of fat powder" is an eternal pain in their hearts, and it has become the laughing stock of other people in the house.

After the order was completed, Gu Bei asked Li Laosan about the renovation of the bathroom in the utility room.

Li Laosan was surprised, and asked curiously: "Dare to ask my uncle, what is the bathroom?" ”

"It's the toilet."

Li Laosan was stunned when he heard this, "Uncle, you want to repair the toilet in the utility room, next door to the eldest lady?" How can that be? ”

Not only Li Laosan was surprised, but even Mrs. Qin and the steward, who were attracted by Gu Bei's movements, and the maids were also stunned. Fix the toilet in the utility room? Is this son-in-law (uncle) crazy?

No wonder they were surprised, the toilets in Daxia were not the toilets with complete sewer pipes in later generations, but dry toilets.

Even in the countryside of later generations, no one would dig a dry toilet in their house. Needless to say, the hygiene is just the taste, tsk, it's sour enough to think about.

Gu Bei didn't explain, just smiled: "I have a point, Li Laosan, there's no problem with this, right?" ”

"There is no problem, it can be fixed in two days at most, it is not complicated." Although he didn't understand what Gu Bei was thinking, Li Laosan still nodded and agreed.

An hour later, the next person sent the ground ceramic powder, and Gu Bei asked Li Laosan to take the lime, stir and mix it with the ceramic powder, and then add water and mix well.

Li Laosan took out the tile, smeared the back of the tile with the cement he mixed well, gently attached the tile to the root of the wall, and gently tapped the surface of the tile with a small hammer in his hand to make it more suitable for the wall.

Sure that the tiles were completely attached to the wall, Li Laosan glanced at Gu Bei, although he had tried it before, he was still not at ease in his heart, and only after getting Gu Bei's encouraging eyes did he try to let go of his hand.

When he let go of his hand, the tiles did not move, firmly glued to the wall.

"This, how is this possible?" Li Laosan had tried it before, and he was not surprised at all, and it was the first time that the other masons had seen such a thing.

Gu Bei smiled proudly at Bai Luoshi, what does that mean? It's awesome for the husband!

Bai Luoshi gave him a blank look, but his eyes were full of joy, watching the mason stick the bright and clean tiles on the wall......

What surprised the masons other than Li Laosan was that the cement could not only bond tiles, but also lay bricks.

Among the things sent by Gu Bei was a cart of bricks, which was used to build a biogas digester.

That's right, the large circular pit he had people dig in the open space that the compound didn't frequented was the biogas digester.

However, the digester also needs to be built with bricks so that the sewage does not seep into the soil.

And the bricklaying is naturally the "cement" made by Gu Bei.

Seeing that this thing called "cement" can really bond bricks, these red bricks are also smaller and lighter than green bricks, which makes cement more viscous than the loess, lime and water they originally used to mix well for bonding, these masons are confused.

It's really a long experience, the uncle of the Bai family can be described as a little expert!

What surprised them even more was that when they came back to work on the second day, several masons found that the "cement" had not solidified and dried up yesterday. Not only is it strong, but it can't be splashed with water, like turning into stone.

"This, how is this possible?"

"This uncle of the Bai family is really a celestial Qu Xing, and he actually knows the methods of the immortal family."

"That's right, a little mud into stone, isn't it a fairy?"

Several craftsmen whispered around the concrete wall, all beyond their imagination.

Gubei's plan to modernize its restrooms is still underway.

Next is the sewage system, there is Gu Beizhi invented cement, not two days under the leadership of Li Laosan, less than two days the craftsmen built the biogas digester, and laid the sewage pipe with pottery pipes, and the joints were all sealed with cement.

Then came the creation of a modern bathroom in the utility room.

The floor and walls are covered with tiles, and after the installation of a fired ceramic toilet, a modern bathroom is created.

Finally, the biogas utilization part of the biogas digester is connected, that is, it is connected to the gas pipeline, this biogas pipeline is the most headache in Gubei, and there is no Pvc pipeline available in the Xia Dynasty.

In the end, he found a shop in the city that specialized in making copperware, and the old craftsman was very skillful, and he actually used copper skin to create a batch of copper pipes for him. Although the price is very expensive, it is only a drop in the bucket compared to Gu Bei.

Copper is already a currency in Daxia, and there is not much difference between making copper pipes with copper and stringing a pipe with copper coins, just making this batch of copper pipes, Gu Bei paid dozens of copper coins, for ordinary people, it may be a huge amount of money, for him, sell two more bottles of Tianxiang Dew and come back.

In the past two days, the renovation project of the toilet in Gubei's courtyard is the biggest hot spot in the house, and even some powerful people in the city know about it, and they are waiting to see the jokes of the Bai family's aunt, and they get together to discuss the Bai family's various things when they have nothing to do.

Although it is not clear what Gu Bei wants to do, it is a joke in the eyes of the rich.

Which wealthy family built a thatched house next to the bedroom?

I'm afraid that there is only one Gu family uncle.

Two days later, in the courtyard of Gu Bei and Bai Luoshi, the bathroom has been renovated. There is also a tall wooden frame in the small courtyard, and there is a huge clay pot on the wooden frame, this clay pot was made by Gu Bei temporarily, the purpose is to store water, and under the clay pot is a pipe made of bamboo, which extends into the bathroom of Baifu.

The reason why this clay pot is set up to store water is to install a valve on the bamboo pipe, which is a wooden water valve made by a woodmaker in Fuchu using wood and bamboo, which can control the flow of water in the bamboo pipe.

The only inconvenience is that the clay pot has to be poured into it from time to time, but it is not difficult for Baifu.

Qing'er looked at the installed water valve, and had a lot of fun, constantly opening and closing the water valve on the bamboo pipe on the bathroom sink, and shouting happily when she saw the water flowing out of the bamboo pipe.

Gu Bei looked at Bai Luoshi proudly, like a child who desperately wanted to be praised.

Bai Luoshi raised her pink neck arrogantly: "Hmph, it's not bad." Miss Ben went to see the bathroom. ”

"Come, lady, please." Gu Bei shook off his shirt and helped Bai Luoshi to walk towards the utility room.

The area of the utility room is not small, and naturally it will not only be transformed into a bathroom, but also a beautiful tile covered in the room, a toilet with a ceramic toilet and a squatting pit, and a bath with a large area and a sauna.

The walls of the sauna are covered with smooth and shiny cedar planks, which are the work of the carpenters of Fuchu, and the purpose of laying thick planks is to keep warm.

Gu Bei took Bai Luoshi to the back of the utility room, where there was also a huge clay pot that was erected on a high place, and there was a firewood stove below.

Gu Bei introduced them one by one, "After a while, biogas will begin to be produced in the biogas digester, and it can also be used to boil water for bathing, and now you need to use firewood to boil water these days." ”

Looking at these strange things, although Bai Luoshi couldn't understand it, she was very satisfied with this renovated bathroom. When she heard that she could also boil water for bathing, she looked left and right and didn't find the tub.

Gu Bei knew what she was thinking, and pointed to the bamboo pipe of the clay pot: "After the water in the clay pot is hot, it can be directly transported to the shower room through the bamboo pipe." ”

Bai Luoshi listened in the clouds, "Husband, where is the bath?" That pool or? ”

Gu Bei pointed to a round thing, it was a shower he made of copper skin, although it would be very rough, but it was not bad, briefly explained.

The little stars in Bai Luoshi's eyes were about to pop up: "Husband, I, can I try it?" ”
