Chapter 319: Xunzhou Village

Not only Wang Xiang was like this, Li Zhi and Xiao Lori were also dumbfounded when they saw Wang Xiang's fief like this.

I thought that going south to Xunzhou could be delicious and fun, but I didn't expect to come to such a place where birds don't after running non-stop all the way.

The name of the village is very simple, because almost all the people of Xunzhou live in this village, so the village is called Xunzhou Village.

Wang Xiang and his entourage's carriage is tall and luxurious, as soon as they enter the village, it has attracted the attention of many people, Xunzhou has long been classified as a fief of a marquis, they have already known, but they don't have much feeling, in their opinion, those high-ranking marquis will not come to this kind of place at all, most of the fiefdom is just like this, at most send someone to take care of it, in fact, there is nothing to take care of, this kind of place that can't even cultivate grain naturally has no tax.

A few days ago, they learned from Master Liu that the owner of the fief, Marquis Jiayuan, was already on his way to Xunzhou, and he had to ask everyone to tidy up the village, even so, Wang Xiang still felt that this place was too desolate.

Liu Qingsheng led the way in front, the carriage slowly entered the village, most of the people hid in the distance and whispered while quietly watching, only some children were innocent and fearless, it was rare to see such a luxurious convoy into the village all barefoot and shy to run over to see the excitement.

"Uncle Liu, these carriages are so beautiful, are they big people from Guangzhou City?"

Liu Qingsheng was afraid that these dirty children would cause Wang Xiang's dislike, so he hurriedly raised his face and said: "This is a big man from Chang'an, go away and play, don't disturb Master Hou." Because Li Zhi did not reveal his identity, he did not know that there was another prince in the car.

These children didn't seem to be afraid of Liu Qingsheng, and after listening to his words, they still smiled and smiled around the convoy and asked "Uncle Liu" one by one. Liu Qingsheng was anxious for a while, but there was no way.

Little ancestor. Stop today. I don't know if I'll be able to keep this book.

"Now that we're here, let's get out of the car and take a walk."

Hearing Wang Xiang's words behind him, Liu Qingsheng couldn't care about talking nonsense with those little kids, and hurriedly turned around and said: "Master Hou, the ground in the village is dirty, you should sit in the car, and you will almost arrive at the post house prepared for Master Hou." ”

"It's okay, I've been sitting in the car and my body is very soft, it's better to get out of the car and take a walk."

Wu Shun, Xiao Lori and the others did not get out of the carriage, and Wang Xiang jumped out of the carriage by himself. Liu Qingsheng hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"Master Hou, be careful."

Wang Xiang naturally saw that Liu Qingsheng could please him, smiled and said: "Xunzhou's affairs have always been taken care of by you, the main book, and I want to be the most familiar with this place, and I will have to do more in the future." ”

This was his intention to say it out of Liu Qingsheng's heart, and sure enough, after hearing this, Liu Qingsheng was happy and hurriedly said: "It should be, it should be." ”

Because of the soft and damp soil along the coast, he is still a little unaccustomed to stepping on the ground, and Wang Xiang is also miserable when he looks at the miserable village along the way, but he believes that this miserable appearance is only temporary. He is confident that he will make this place a paradise.

Coming to the post house prepared temporarily, Wang Xiang was hit again, and the so-called post house was a slightly neat stone house. Even the houses of ordinary farmers on his farm are not as good.

Seeing Wang Xiang's expression, Liu Qingsheng hurriedly explained: "It's close to the sea, it's relatively humid, and if you build a house with wood, it's easy to rot, so you build a house with stone." ”

Wang Xiang was speechless for a while, even if you use stones, you don't need to be so artistic, no matter how you look at the house, which is made of stones of different sizes and shapes, it doesn't feel very safe.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was no brick-burning technology, and there were relatively few brick houses, and those bricks were cut and ground out of natural stones, and the manpower and material resources consumed were very huge.

"You can't do that kind of house."

Hearing Wang Xiang say this, Liu Qingsheng suddenly became nervous, thinking that Wang Xiang was not satisfied with the post house prepared temporarily, and was about to speak, but Wang Xiang continued: "It is too unsafe for people to live in such a house, and it is not easy to hurt people if they accidentally collapse." ”

"This ...... Xunzhou Village has always been such a house. "As the chief bookkeeper of Xunzhou, of course he knows that such a stone house is not safe, and there have been cases where the stone house has collapsed, but the wooden house is too expensive and will be corroded in a short time, so this is also a matter of no choice, everyone has long been used to it.

Wang Xiang also plans to build his own base camp here, naturally he will not be so sloppy, the top priority is to get a brick factory out first, otherwise not to mention that the canning factory can't even solve the problem of his own residence, and he is still shouldering the task of making salt, relying on the current appearance of Xunzhou Village will definitely be no fun.

Liu Qingsheng prepared the post house Wang Xiang still did not plan to live in, Guangzhou City is a good house, but Guangzhou City is not close to Xunzhou, horseback riding also has half a day to come and go, too inconvenient, fortunately, they plan to play all the way over, so they brought a lot of tents, Wang Xiang let people set up tents in the open space in the village as temporary residence.

This Hou Ye is really aggrieved, if Li Er is in front of him now, he will definitely give Li Er the middle finger without hesitation.

After eating their own meals, Wang Xiang found Wang Steward, Wang Steward brought from Chang'an are experts in the Gewu Academy, smart and capable, the previous canned food production method is what they experimented, and then they all came to the tent for the temporary meeting after Wang Xiang found the method of firing bricks to them and then instructed them to start the test, and after the success, the brick factory will be built as soon as possible, with bricks to develop other things, as for the required manpower and tools can go to Guangzhou City to find, Wang Xiang lacks everything, but he is not short of money, and he can basically do most things with money.

He also thought about bringing bricks directly from the last days, but now where are people burning bricks in the last days, and the bricks needed to build Xunzhou are by no means small, even if the warehouse is full, it is only a drop in the bucket.

Anyway, the canning factory can't be built now, so it's just for them to study the brick-burning technology first.

After arranging everything here, Wang Xiang said to Wu Shun and returned to the warehouse of the end of the world, leaving the end of the world for more than ten days, I don't know how the base construction is going, and it is really not easy to be busy with construction at both ends.

Out of the basement and seeing the complete changes outside, Wang Xiang couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It would be great if such construction technology could be brought to Datang......
