In order to achieve rapid and healthy development under his rule, Gao Yuan put forward the concept of unified standards.

Sima Yi humbly asked for advice and said, "My lord, what is the unity of standards? ”

Gao Yuan in the hall said with a smile: "In the past, after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, he unified currency and weights and measures, which made the Qin State enter a stage of rapid development. What we have to do is actually very simple, that is, to unify the standards of manual manufacturing. ”

"For example, wheels, rivets, wooden wedges," he added. The two places are far away, and there are some differences in manufacturing. In this case, when the carriage of A enters B and if it is damaged, it will be difficult to repair it immediately, which will delay time. ”

"Time is money." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

Sima Yi, Xu Shu and others suddenly realized that they could immediately draw inferences from one another, and couldn't help but praise: "The "standard unification" proposed by the lord is very important for the handicraft manufacturing industry. It is also possible to deepen the connection between various industries and speed up the speed of circulation. ”

Subsequently, Gao Yuan pointed out that the production of weapons and equipment should also be highly unified. In this way, large-scale centralized production can be achieved. And after the soldiers have standard equipment, they can better coordinate and improve their combat effectiveness.

Sima Yi, Xu Shu and others were all in high spirits, recording the spirit of the lofty speech. It is a great relief to be able to assist a master.

As a result, Sima Yi and others began to carry out regional construction in accordance with Gao Yuan's instructions. The focus is on the Datong Basin, where there are iron mines, coal mines, and after the concentration of craftsmen, it is the arsenal.

Two days later.

Xu Shu frowned and came to see Gao Yuan.

The Great Military Master frowned, Gao Yuan chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Yuan Zhi, did something big happen?" ”

Xu Shu saluted and said sadly: "After discussing with Sima Junshi, his subordinates are ready to move into 50,000 households in the Datong Basin. In order to build the main industrial zone. However, although there are many mineral deposits in the Datong area, it is located in a semi-arid area and there is too little vegetation. In the case of large-scale resettlement of migrants, housing construction has become the most difficult part. ”

When Xu Shu said this, he saluted again: "The winter solstice is coming, if there is no house." I'm afraid the people are in trouble. I am afraid that it will not be until next year that the manufacturing industrial zone will be built. In addition, due to the influx of immigrants, timber is also beginning to be in short supply elsewhere, and many immigrants may find it difficult to live in their own houses this winter. ”

Gao Yuan originally planned to use the coal mines and iron ore in the Datong area to quickly reequip troops on a large scale after the construction of the manufacturing industrial zone, and expected to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army in the spring of next year. But now it's November. You can't make it cold and have no place to live.

In addition, the sudden and large-scale arrival of immigrants has brought about the problem of difficulty in building houses, and if this problem is not handled well, so many people who have defected to themselves will be homeless. He frowned. "Wooden houses can't be built on a large scale, they can be brick-burned. Qin bricks and Han tiles. ”

Xu Shu pondered when he heard this, and he didn't understand this burning brick.

So, half an hour later, Gao Yuan came to a brick kiln on the outskirts of the western part of the city.

The masters of the brick kiln were very excited when they heard that Gao Yuan was coming. The New Year's clothes were taken out and worn in advance. When he was far away, he knelt on the side of the road.

Gao Yuan hurriedly dismounted, helped him up one by one, and learned from the appearance of the great leaders of later generations, and asked for warmth.

Whoever is a great official. It's all pro-soldiers who hold up the avoidance sign to open the way, and there are such approachable people there. The masters were very moved, thinking about the good days now, many older people left tears.

It was cold, but as soon as he entered the brick kiln factory, Gao Yuan felt very warm. This comes from the fact that the brick kiln must maintain a certain temperature at all times, especially in winter, when the temperature drops suddenly, the kiln wall will crack and become unusable.

When the master explained the process of burning bricks in detail, Xu Shu kept shaking his head, and finally said: "Lord, this brick burning is quite time-consuming, it seems that only in the beginning of spring, when the weather is warm, can the people be resettled in the Datong area on a large scale." ”

Gao Yuan frowned and said nothing, although bricks can be burned in this era, the process is relatively backward, and it takes a long time to produce a furnace. He then asked the master, "Do you burn bricks with clay and gangue?" ”

"Gangue? What is Ganue? The middle-aged bricklayer scratched his head, puzzled.

"It is an associated ...... of coal mines."

This master is also capable, and at the same time, this Shanxi coal mining is convenient, and coal is used to burn bricks, and charcoal is used in many places. After Gao Yuan's explanation, he finally knew what coal gangue was, and exclaimed: "Waste ore is also okay?" ”

At this time, people also called coal gangue, which could not be burned, so it was used when adulterated.

Gao Yuan saw what was going on, so he planned to improve the process of burning bricks. In fact, he didn't know how to burn bricks, but later generations heard that gangue burns bricks, because coal gangue also has a certain degree of flammability, so that it can be fired from the inside to the outside, saving energy and shortening the firing time.

The masters of the brick kiln looked at each other, can this work?

And Xu Shu, who accompanied him, was a little dumbfounded, and said that the main guild would burn bricks? How did the lord know that coal gangue could burn bricks? But then he thought about it, but all the lords of the sages have access to all things.

Lord of the Sages!

Only by explaining it in this way can we explain why Gao Yuan has endless new theories.

In fact, the lord of the sages is already the consensus under Gao Yuan's rule, including the common people.

Gao Yuan looked at the people who were looking at him in surprise, and waved his hand, "If you burn a furnace, you will know!" ”

"Yes, yes!" The masters nodded again and again, this brick kiln is generally to burn bricks for the city wall and for the base of the big building. When I'm busy, I don't stop day and night, and I don't know when I'm free. Now I'm idle, so when I heard it, I nodded one by one.

There are many people and great strength, and the five hundred soldiers brought by Gao Yuan went into battle together, and soon got 10,000 bricks.

Gao Yuan is also hands-on, and mud bricks, a mud idea, but he is happy with it.

Xu Chu and Xu Shu, who accompanied him, were shocked. Especially Xu Chu, how many years he has been with Cao Cao, he has never seen Cao Cao do such a thing. However, for the current Xu Chu, he is more respectful and lofty, and only in this way will the lord who is not afraid of being dirty or tired will truly love the people like a son.

This brick kiln is a gossip kiln, as the name suggests, eight caves surround a large chimney in the middle.

10,000 tiles is a lot. Three-dimensional placement is not much, only one cave is enough.

After stacking the bricks into the kiln and sealing the kiln door, the next step is to add coal to the holes in the roof of the kiln.

There is an iron cover on the hole, and after hooking it with an iron hook, you can add carbon. Also able to extract from these meshes. See the firing of the bricks inside.

"My lord, we'll see in five days." The master said.

Gao Yuan was startled, and said in his heart that this time it would take five days, that is, a month's work in the next life, and it would take five months to complete. No wonder Xu Shu said that it will not be possible to resettle migrants on a large scale until next spring.

He smacked his lips and said, "I'll wait for a long time to see the situation." ”

Half a day later.

The master personally went to the top of the kiln to add carbon, and the iron cover on the hole was just opened. When I looked inside, I saw that the bricks inside were crystal clear, and they were as beautiful as gemstones. "Oops!" The master was taken aback, but before he could stand firmly, he rolled down from the brick kiln. Fortunately, many people below looked at him, and suddenly caught it in a hurry.

"Lord, it's almost ready. Half a day at most! The master didn't care about himself at all, pushed everyone away and ran towards Gaoyuan.

Many masters don't believe it. It used to take five days to burn, but now it's alive in one day? Is this possible? They went to the top of the kiln one after another, and when they looked at it carefully, their faces changed drastically, and they were "crumbling".

In this regard, Gao Yuan used the methods of later generations. It has improved the efficiency of firing bricks by five times that of 1,800 years ago.

When everyone was shocked, Gao Yuan was very calm, and he patted the master on the shoulder. said to Xu Shu: "After increasing coal mining, coal gangue will also be mined in large quantities, and there is no need to occupy a large amount of land!" He said to the master again: "In the future, coal gangue will be used as raw materials." If the soil is left, there will be more land for future generations to grow crops. ”

Xu Shu was a little confused, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he muttered: "Mining the soil, the ground will be dug up." This small burnt brick has such a close connection with the land. The lord improved the bricks, leaving more land for future generations! He hurriedly bowed and said, "Lord Shengming, I can't do it!" ”

Gao Yuanxin said that I am a sage, this is not a matter in the future life, if you can go through it, it is estimated that you are better than me. However, he is the only one in the world.

Gao Yuan then calculated: "There are 10,000 in a cave, and eight is 80,000." One square meter requires 130 pieces, and a 10-square-meter house, with four walls and wooden planks for the roof, is 2.7 meters high, and more than 6,000 pieces are needed. If the square meter is smaller, one cave can build three rooms in a day. It's a little smaller, but it's also able to transition. Yuan Zhi will follow this model and settle the people down first. ”

"In addition, large-scale construction of brick kilns will lead to many places where bricks will be used in the future. Bricks are not bad after being burned for thousands of years, and they don't need to be stored first. It is necessary to build new cities, repair city walls, and pass passes. ”

Xu Shu was stunned at first, and then said hurriedly: "Lord, what does this square meter mean, teach me." ”

Gao Yuan was already physically and mentally exhausted, and waved his hand: "Let's go, I'll talk about it next time." ”

Xu Shu could feel that there were still many things in the lord's stomach that had not been taken out.

Gao Yuan casually pointed out the brick-burning process, but it solved the problem of building materials and resettled the people on a large scale, which became a reality. This made Xu Shu and the others respectful and shouted the lord of the sages.

At the time when the state was vigorously resettling immigrants, and at the same time, Xiapi City, Xuzhou, underwent drastic changes.

Amid the rumbling drums of war, Yuan's army launched a general attack on Liu Bei's Xiapi City.

Looking down from the sky, the 100,000 Yuan troops rushed through the broken city wall in an instant. The next moment, the tide was raging in the smoking city of Xiapi.

Outside the city, in front of the formation, Yuan Shao under the canopy looked up to the sky and laughed, indescribably proud. Breaking through Xuzhou today, is it far to sweep the Central Plains in the future?

Inside the city. "Uncle Benhuang will never leave, Uncle Benchu will fight to the death with Yuan Benchu!" The grizzled Liu Bei, his clothes were full of holes, his face was distorted and terrible, and he couldn't face another failure.

However, Zhang Fei, who was stationed here with him, couldn't watch him stay and die. I saw Zhang Feitong's eyes glaring, and he stretched out his hand to stop Liu Bei and hugged him, and shouted to the remaining hundreds of soldiers: "Come with me and escort my eldest brother out of the city!" ”

Liu Bei was like tying Zhang Fei's waist, with the gallop of the war horse, the burning Xiapi City, and the panicked people, constantly met his eyes. And Liu Bei's eyes gradually lost their brilliance, he suddenly thought, and couldn't help but lose his voice: "The same face of Yuan Benchu and Cao Mengde, why can Gao Mengyan win, why is it me who loses every time?" ”

Liu Bei suddenly found that since he became the emperor's uncle, he always lost every time. (To be continued......)
