Chapter 438: Wen Yanbo has fallen
Wen Yanbo was at a loss, but his unlucky son Wen Jifu took the initiative to find it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since the last copper price battle, Wen Jifu has been in charge, but he lost his pants, Wang Ningan didn't trouble him, but Wen Jifu would rather Wang Ningan arrest him, or even kill him!
You must know that Young Master Wen borrowed so much money, which creditor is easy to provoke, Wang Ningan cut off his head at most, but let the creditor catch him, that is to fall into the hands of his stepmother, life is better than death!
Fortunately, Wen Yanbo's means were high enough to get his son to the temple, and he lived there for several years, and Wen Jifu even shaved his hair in order to pretend to be like.
It's pitiful, the dignified grandfather has actually become a bald monk, and Wen Jifu's grievances are needless to say.
knew that Wen Yanbo took over the project of Xindu, and manipulated tens of millions of huge sums of money in his hands, and the former creditor also wanted to go through Wen Yanbo's door and get some projects, so he let Wen Jifu go.
Young Master Wen was finally able to go home, but his father didn't want to see him at all, so Wen Jifu was not embarrassed or embarrassed, like a ghost.
No, in order to see my father, I waited for two hours, and my legs were numb.
Wen Yanbo glanced at him, and he was tired, especially on his head, the small bun was even more shameful!
"What are you doing here? It's okay to read honestly, wait for your hair to grow to two feet, and come see me again, go! Wen Yanbo was like chasing flies, Wen Ji Fu Nuonuo bowed his head, and said boldly: "The child has nothing to do, and he doesn't dare to disturb his father, the child heard that his father is worried about the drainage of the palace, and the child just has an idea to sacrifice his father." ”
"Oh?"
Wen Yanbo finally became interested, "Tell me about it." ”
"Father, when the child was in the temple, he found an ancient tower in the Tang Dynasty, which was in disrepair for a long time, and the foundation was washed out.
Wen Jifu took out a drawing from his sleeve and gave it to Wen Yanbo.
Wen Xianggong looked at it, and suddenly his eyes suddenly brightened!
This pottery pipe is three inches in diameter and more than two feet long, Wen Yanbo asked in surprise: "Is this a drainage pipe?" ”
"That's right, the child asked, and it is true that the clay pipe can be used for drainage." Wen Jifu said firmly.
"That's great!"
Wen Yanbo waved his fist, looking very happy, and looking at his son again, he was not so hateful.
"Since you found it, I will leave it to you, and the father will see the results as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
Wen Jifu happily went down, and after half a month, Wen Yanbo found his son again and asked about the progress, but the results were mixed.
The pottery pipe can indeed be burned and can also be used for drainage, but the problem is that at the level of Luoyang craftsmen, the pottery pipe with a diameter of 5 inches can be fired at most, and if it is larger, it is easy to collapse.
Holding the rough clay pipe, Wen Yanbo kept shaking his head.
"It's small, it's too small, the side hall is okay, but the main hall is definitely not enough, you need a one-foot-five pipe!"
Wen Jifu was very embarrassed, "Dad, that's all there is to it, do you want to add more?" ”
"It's a solution, but the drainage pipe is added, but I'm afraid that the cost will go up again."
Wen Jifu's little face was even more sad, the use of pottery pipes was not cheap, and if it was increased several times, the project budget would be uncontrollable...... I finally found a way out, but it still doesn't work! It's infuriating!
Wen Yanbo was not so frustrated, and finally had an idea.
"Let's start with the surrounding palace walls and side halls, and let the craftsmen continue to make ...... Your kid is also tired, go home and drink some wine with your father. ”
When Wen Jifu heard this, he was like being pardoned.
My father, it's been several years, and I'm finally willing to drink with my children!
Getting his father's love again, Wen Jifu's heart was like a fire, not to mention how happy. He didn't go home directly, but found a bathroom, soaked the mud and dirt all over his body comfortably, and combed his hair less than a foot long, coiled on the top of his head, not much hair, so he covered it with a big hat.
"Young Master Wen, the little one has been waiting for you for a long time."
Wen Jifu was stunned, he owed too much money, and there were many enemies, and suddenly a person appeared and scared him enough, "You, who are you?" ”
"Hahaha, you are a noble person who forgets things, a few years ago, there was a fight in Kaifeng, you and I are enemies!"
Wen Jifu subconsciously took two steps back, revealing a shocked expression.
"You, who the hell are you?"
Fu Fu took off the hat and said with a smile: "The little one's surname is Wu, his name is Wu Shicheng, and he was sent by Wang Xianggong." ”
Wen Jifu then remembered that it was true that during the copper price war, Wu Shicheng was one of Wang Ningan's cadres and did a lot of things.
He was a little weak-hearted, but he regained his father's favor, Wen Jifu was a little bolder, held his chest out, and scolded angrily: "What, do you still want to seek revenge?" ”
"Hahaha! Gongzi Wen, you are too underestimated by Wang Xianggong, the past is over, we don't know each other, Wang Xianggong asked the villain to give it to you, and Wen Xianggong sent a heavy gift, don't you want to go to your mansion to sit down? ”
……
Wenjia Garden, peonies are in full bloom, rich and prosperous, like a fairyland.
Wu Shicheng asked people to bring a big wooden box, and after opening it, it was full of straw, and when he took out the straw, he gradually revealed his true face.
Wen Jifu came closer, it was a blue-gray tube, it seemed to be two feet in diameter and more than three feet long, and people could crawl around in it without hindrance at all.
"What's, what is this?"
Wu Shicheng didn't speak, but asked someone to bring a hammer and motioned to Wen Jifu to let him try it a few times.
Wen Jifu rounded the hammer and smashed it on the pipe.
Bang!
There was a loud bang, and some debris burst out, but the pipe was still intact.
"Go on!"
Wen Jifu slammed it more than a dozen times in a row, shaking his arm so hard that he barely smashed a gap, this thing is really hard, like a stone!
Seeing that the Wen family father and son were still a little hesitant, Wu Shicheng smiled and said: "Gong Wen, Gongzi Wen, this is the latest research from the Six Arts and Hundred Industries Institute, called cement." ”
"How do I use it?" Wen Yanbo asked curiously.
"It's very simple, for example, this kind of pipe, first make a frame with iron bars, and then mix the sand and gravel with cement and pour it in. After half a day's work, the cement is dry, and a pipe as hard as stone can be made. This thing is used for drainage, water diversion, and even as a bridge tunnel, which is a great choice. The best thing is that it can also be used to build walls and make cement pillars, which can be much stronger than wood, and it is also fireproof......" After saying a lot, Wu Shicheng squinted his eyes, looked at the Wen family father and son who were fascinated, and said with a smile: "Wen Xianggong, do you know the purpose?" ”
Goo!
Wen Yanbo swallowed his saliva, his eyes couldn't leave the somewhat damaged cement pipe, "Such a good thing, it's definitely not cheap, right?" ”
"Of course it's not cheap!"
Wen Yanbo's heart thumped, sure enough, this was the time to rip off the bamboo, he gritted his teeth, "How much does it cost?" ”
Wu Shicheng pointed to the tube with his finger, stretched out a slap, and turned it back and forth four times.
"Twenty runs? Or two hundred? ”
Seeing Wu Shicheng shaking his head, Wen Jifu was even more shocked: "Isn't it two thousand? ”
Wu Shicheng chuckled, "It's not Jinyu, why is it so expensive." For such a pipe, it costs 20 yuan of cement, of course, it is just cement, and if you count the iron bars inside, the price will be 50 yuan. ”
Yes!
The father and son of the Wen family screamed together, not because they were frightened, but because they felt that it was too cheap!
A two-foot-long pottery pipe also has thirty or fifty wen, and such a large cement pipe is only 50 wen, which is already the price of cabbage.
Cheap, too cheap!
And what else did Wu Shicheng say...... Not only can you pour cement pipes, but you can also pour columns!
Oh my God!
What is the hardest thing about building a palace? It's those big pillars that hug the thickness of each other! It is necessary to use the best golden silk nanmu, which can prevent insect erosion and rat bites, endure for a long time, and can bear a huge weight, reflecting the royal style. And such a golden silk nan must be transported from the deep mountains of Shu or from the Nanyang sea.
Think about it, a giant tree several zhang long, relying on manpower and animal power, transported out of the deep mountains, then loaded onto the ship, and transferred to the capital, how amazing the cost is!
Just one pillar will cost tens of thousands, not counting labor, and dozens of people will die of exhaustion along the way......
In fact, whenever the imperial court builds a large number of buildings, there is a group of clear streams who oppose it, which is not unreasonable, it really costs too much!
But if it is replaced with cement, it is as strong as a stone, not afraid of water and fire, and not afraid of insects and rats.
How much can this save and how much speed can it be added......
Just thinking about it made Wen Yanbo's heart pound, the old guy had cultivated all his life without moving his Zen heart, boasting that Mount Tai had collapsed in front of him, and his face did not change. At this time, he was red and panting, his eyes bulging out, and he seemed excited...... It took a long time for Wen Yanbo to barely calm down.
He is old and refined, Wang Ningan is not a good stubble, the two of them still have a grudge, his subordinates suddenly came to the door, and brought such an important treasure, there must be a plan.
"Mr. Wu, the old man doesn't want to go around in circles with you, this cement is really too important to the old man, you make a price, as long as the old man can agree, he will definitely agree!"
"Hahaha!"
Wu Shicheng laughed, "Wen Xianggong, with your old wisdom, you should be able to see that cement is definitely a good thing to subvert thousands of years of architecture!" Drainage pipes, pillars of the main hall, these are still gadgets, the Great Wall, so many important towns at the border, if they are all built with cement, how much cost will be saved? And how much progress will it improve? With such great use, the profit of cement is self-evident! ”
Wen Yanbo bowed his head, "That's true, it's worth immeasurable, the old man wants to congratulate Lord Wang, he has made a fortune again." ”
"Wrong!"
Wu Shicheng shook his head and corrected: "It's not Lord Wang, but you and Lord Wang!" ”
"How?"
"Our adults are going to join forces with Wen Xianggong to open a cement workshop, and we both have our own shares, and we will make money together, but I don't know if Wen Xianggong can agree?" Wu Shicheng followed Wang Ning'an's example, cocked Erlang's legs, and waited for the father and son to take the bait......
