So Li Yi immediately said without thinking: "It doesn't hurt that the craftsmen are paid a little more, this is what they deserve." β
"But the emperor's heart is very sincere in respecting Buddhism, this is our largest engineering project in Yunnan, and you have to pay more attention to the quality of this Buddhist project."
"It's okay to spend a little more money, you can't do this cutting corners, you must take care of it!"
Lin Jin smiled happily: "Don't worry, I have arranged every process of this project and set the completion time. β
"There are accounts of who is responsible for that piece, and no matter which part goes wrong, I can immediately find the person responsible, so no one dares to cut corners and slack off."
"Moreover, even if you count the project under the mountain, it has only cost 190,000 yuan now, and there is no problem in controlling all the expenses within the budget."
After listening to Lin Jin's report, Li Yi was relieved a lot, there is no problem with Lin Jin's ability, and it can be seen from the progress of the project that their work efficiency is still good.
After eating, Li Yi and Shao Tingjuan, accompanied by Lin Jin, walked around the construction site, admired the majestic posture of the Buddha, and inspected the various Buddha halls that were about to be built.
Then, Li Yi quietly instructed Lin Jin to take him to visit the secret Tunbing Cave, so that the envoy could see this natural cave.
When Lin Jin heard this, he hurriedly nodded his head and quietly took Li Yi, Shao Tingjuan, Li Pian, and Lian Jun to follow the mountain path and walk down the mountain behind the temple.
After walking for more than a mile, in the middle of the mountainside, in a dead bush that was inaccessible, Lin Jin beckoned Li Pian and Lian Jun, and struggled to move away the trees piled up on the mountain wall, revealing a hole that was more than one person high and more than two meters wide, and took a torch at the entrance of the cave, lit it and walked in first.
Entering the cave, walking about ten meters away, the scene in the cave suddenly opened up, through the sunlight sprinkled from many gaps in the top of the cave, a spacious and bright hall was presented in front of everyone.
The hall is huge, like an irregular square, about fifty meters long and wide.
Around the hall, there are several paths that stretch out in all directions, and the inside is really unfathomable.
Lin Jin extinguished the torch, and the hall still looked very bright, without a trace of uncomfortable places.
Lin Jin pointed to the stone cave and said proudly: "Our Tunbing Cave is like a gossip array, the big hole is connected to the small hole, there are holes in the hole, and the holes are connected. According to my estimates, all of them can accommodate up to 3,000 people to eat, live and rest here, and it doesn't seem crowded at all. β
"And it's warm in winter and cool in summer, dry and comfortable, and the breath is smooth when you live here, and there is no feeling of aggrieved. What I like the most is that there is plenty of light here, and through some inconspicuous pores, the sunlight goes straight into the cave, and there is no need for torches to light it during the day. β
"The entrance to the cave we came in just now is only one of the three openings in this stone cave. Therefore, it is very convenient to replenish supplies here, or to garrison soldiers, in and out. β
Hearing this, Shao Tingjuan interrupted him and said, "This cantonment cave looks like it is invulnerable, but if you make a fire in the cave for cooking, how can this smoke be discharged without people noticing?" β
"Also, although the cracks in the roof of the cave are transparent, in the rainy season, won't the rainwater on the roof of the cave pour down these gaps, and how can the people in the cave live?"
As soon as Shao Tingjuan's words fell, Lin Jin smiled slightly and said, "Lord Qin's worries are justified. The adjacent place of this cave is a small mountain lake, usually the lake surface is misty and kind, we dug several flues from the stone cave near the lake surface, so that the smoke is discharged along the flue to the lake surface and mix with the fog, ordinary people can not see without careful observation. β
"Moreover, the roof of the southern half of the cave is the temple, and we know that it is very common for the temple to be filled with incense smoke all year round, so I took advantage of this feature of the temple and dug a few holes under the temple, which are directly connected to the incense burner, or through the sandwich wall, and connected to the smoke exhaust vent between the temple's stoves."
"As long as the temple cooks at the same time, even the monks who live above can't notice it, let alone outsiders!"
"The second problem of the envoy is actually very easy to solve. These cracks in the roof of our cave are all processed by us along the original gaps, and even if the rain is heavy, it is difficult for these cracks to flow into the water. β
"Occasionally, the rainwater would flow down the sink we had dug into the nearby mountain lake. In addition, many natural drainage ditches in the cave can also play a role! β
Li Yi, Shao Tingjuan and others all nodded convincingly.
Li Yixin said that this Lin Jin is really talented, although this is only a natural stone cave, but after his ingenious design and development, the environment in the cave has been very livable, and makes full use of various favorable conditions nearby, making the cave appear more hidden. This can't but be said to be a great innovation of his!
After seeing this huge stone hall, Lin Jin led everyone along the path in the cave and turned around the cave, which really opened the eyes of the big guy.
When turning to a stone hall in the south, Lin Jin pointed to a stone staircase spiraling upwards and said: "This stone staircase can directly reach the head of the Big Buddha in the temple, at this highest point, through the twelve lookout holes on the head of the Big Buddha, you can have a panoramic view of the surrounding situation for dozens of miles, and no wind or grass can hide from the eyes of the watchman." Do you want to go up and have a look? β
Li Yi and Shao Tingjuan both nodded with interest, looked up at the stone staircase spiraling upward, and climbed the stairs impatiently.
Following the steep and inclined stone staircase, he finally climbed to the top platform, Lin Jin pointed to the round stone wall and said: "Dashuai, please see, this is the head of the Buddha, and these square holes around it are the lookout holes for observing the situation." Isn't it clear from the inside to the outside? β
Li Yi stepped forward and looked out along the holes the size of these square bricks that extended outward, only to see that the surrounding mountains, rivers and forests all fell into his eyes.
In particular, the road that extends outward from the official road, although the distance is a little far, as long as there is any unusual behavior nearby, it will still be quickly detected here.
