It has been a month since Mao Geng's disappearance, and during this time, Wen Yuan has been trying to find clues and find out where Mao Geng is.
In the days of the suspect, Wen Yuan and the three sisters of the Dun family got along day and night, feeling the enthusiasm of the three sisters of the Dun family every day, and gradually forgot the so-called rules of the master that were nothing, at this very moment, Wen Yuan is not such a strong-willed person, finally, the affectionate girl and the down-and-out young man achieved good things at a certain auspicious time, Wen Yuan lost the body of a child, but in exchange for love.
Now Wen Yuan has long returned to Baixi and lives in the compound of the Dun family. Wen Yuan also learned about Wang Qinqin's current situation from the side, Wang Qinqin actually regarded Wen Yuan more as a playmate, and Wen Yuan became the son-in-law of the Don family and did not see how sad Wang Qinqin was.
Baixi has been a lot more lively during this period of time, first of all, Baixi official school suddenly became more beautiful than Xinhua County school, and secondly, foreign enemy merchants came to buy wax paper engraving equipment and chalk, which made the small Baixi town appear unprecedentedly prosperous.
There are rumors that the Baixi Official School is about to be upgraded to the Baixi Academy, just because the popular Confucian Kang Yuliang is not going anywhere, lying in the Baixi Official School is not moving.
Not only the students of the county school have to transfer to the Baixi official school, but even the students of the Anhua county school have also made a wide range of ways to enter the Baixi official school. However, it was said that although the Baixi Government School had invited two more gentlemen to teach, it could only accommodate a maximum of 150 students, so where could scholars from near and far flock to it! As a result, the degree of Baixi official school has become extremely sought-after.
Tong guò Dun's family went to find Wen Yuan, and there are many people who want to get a Baixi official school degree, Wen Yuan is not like Mao Geng who ignores mundane affairs, so he has to hand a few notes to Kang Lao, Kang Lao looked at Wen Yuan's face, and took the test to the students who held Wen Yuan's strips, and finally took two of them, which was already a great favor for Wen Yuan.
As a suspect, Wen Yuan also has the ability to install students at Baixi Official School, which shows his influence. Now that the rumor case has passed the limelight, although Xu County's order did not publicly rehabilitate Mao Wen and the others, he asked Mr. Luo to come forward, in addition to inviting Mao Geng back to the county, he also appeased Wen Yuan, and also asked Wen Yuan to return to Baixi. In fact, Mao Geng and Wen Yuan have already taken off the hat of Jin Bing's spies.
Wen Yuan's reputation was not obvious, it was when he was a suspect, but at that time, the pirated "Baixi Journal" created by Wen Yuan was already very famous. The "New Chemical Journal" had a print run of only 150 copies, while the "Baixi Journal" had to engrave wax paper twice, and the print run jumped to as many as 400 copies.
After Wen Yuan's high-profile appearance in Baixi, the news that the writer of "Baixi Journal" was Wen Yuan spread far and wide, and the circle of people who knew about this matter became bigger and bigger, and Wen Yuan's reputation naturally became more and more famous. However, because of Mao Geng's disappearance, Wen Yuan spent a lot of energy on finding Mao Geng, and the so-called single-mindedness cannot be used for two purposes, so the update was greatly affected, and the three-day period was changed to a seven-day period.
A few days ago, someone suddenly built a model house in Baixi, and the bricks used were red, and then someone sent a palm-sized piece of paper to Dun's house, but the paper was for selling bricks, and the bricks were cheap. However, Tong Guò later obtained further information that the floor of such a prefabricated house was made of cement, and Wen Yuan contacted Mao Geng's disappearance and felt that this matter was extraordinary.
Together with Fuguo Railway and Dun Erbaoyi, the two remembered that when Mao Geng talked about the woolen boat on the boat that day, they mentioned the matter of burning bricks and tiles, so that Qu Jiatong, who built a model house and sold bricks, was extremely suspicious, and Qu Jiatong was also one of the few forces in Xinhua that dared to do this robbery.
At this point, Qu Jiatong was listed as the biggest suspect, but there was no evidence, and it was not easy to come directly to ask for someone for a while. Qu Jiatong, a gang of villains, is known on the smuggling of tea on the road, and the ferocity is notoriously brutal, and even the government has to be afraid of three points, in case Qu Laisan simply destroys the corpse in order to deny it, it will be bad.
Su Zhidao also felt that it was not appropriate to be reckless, because Su Yuanwai was not sure that he could rely on the residual power of the Su family to deter Qu Laisan. This Qu Laisan can't be treated with common sense, Su Yuanwai thought about it, and felt that coming directly to the door might really stimulate Qu Jiatong to do something radical. Therefore, the Soviet diplomatic agent must have a comprehensive plan for this matter, and he must not take the life of his quasi-beloved son-in-law.
Mao Geng's disappearance is such a big thing, of course, he also reported to Xu County Order in time, Xu County Order naturally attaches great importance to it, this Mao Geng knows too much, and Mao Geng must be found no matter what. Therefore, Xu County Ling specially put Mr. Luo in charge of the case, and specially sent Zhang Haisan and Luo Qi to run errands.
After the three Su Futun families locked the suspect in Qu Jiatong, Mr. Luo felt that it was quite tricky, and he also thought that he had to find a perfect solution. From the perspective of Xu County's order, it is just enough to destroy the corpse and destroy the traces, I am afraid that Qu Laisan will transfer Mao Geng to another place, Mao Geng's talent must not be cheap in other counties, this is one, and second, Mao Geng is an insider of the god-making movement, and if he falls elsewhere, if he leaks the god-making one, Xu County's order will suddenly fall from the peak to the bottom. According to the current situation, Mao Geng may be in Qujiatong, and it seems that there is no danger of his life for the time being, but he can't startle the snake and alarm Qu Laisan, in case Mao Geng is transferred to another place and out of the jurisdiction of Xinhua, it will be even more difficult to find Mao Geng.
Although everyone knows that Mao Geng is in the hands of Qu Laisan, the absurd thing is that the three families, including the government, all agree that they must think about it in the long run, and no one advocates directly killing Mao Geng.
A few days later, Qu Jiatong played a new trick again, a red wall of the model house was painted gray, and then each family received a new piece of paper. The paper not only sells bricks this time, but also claims that the newly established "Huaxi Contractor Team" can take over the work of building a house for the owner -- building a house for the owner, contracting labor and materials, and covering all the work! The proprietor doesn't have to worry about anything other than making a request, which is both trouble-free and inexpensive. And pay in installments, pay halfway through the cover, keep half of it after it is covered, and pay the remaining half of it after a year. In addition, it is also specially noted that it is a Yao tradition to build a red brick wall, and the owner can get a 10% discount if he chooses the red brick wall.
The first person to come to the door to ask about the construction of the house was Li Song.
Blacksmith Li Song relied on the steel plates engraved on wax paper, and he had earned a full 120 yuan in the past two months, and if he continued like this, it would not be difficult to earn 300 yuan by the end of the year. After Li Song had money, he felt that he was also a rich man, and it was undignified to live under the eaves of the house, and he heard that a beautiful brick model house had emerged on the street, and he could also build a house. Li Song deliberately took the time to see it in person, and after looking at the inside and outside of the model house, he was immediately moved.
Li Song asked, to build a house with four rooms, the "Huaxi Contractor Team" quoted the price of the contractor and the material is 75 yuan, and there is a discount of 10% during the opening period of the first month, then it is only 67 yuan and 5, if you can accept the red exterior wall, you can also have a discount of 10%, and the whole number is just 60 yuan. Li Song calculated, the hall is two rooms large, and the total calculation is six rooms, and it is only ten rooms when it is spread out to one room, and the ground is still cement. Li Song knows the market for building houses, and the brick houses in Shandong have to be eleven or two, and besides, he is alone here in Baixi, and it is impossible to build a house by himself. There is also an advantage, this "Huaxi contractor team" can even buy land for themselves, the contractor team is so enthusiastic that they are even willing to sell more than one acre of land next to the model house to Li Song, this place is also a prosperous local place, the asking price is fifteen guan, Li Song is very satisfied at a glance.
Even the land belt to build a house, the total is seventy-five yuan, you don't have to worry about it, or pay in installments, there is nothing more cost-effective than this. Li Song now has plenty of money, and immediately made a decision to make a deal with the "Huaxi Contractor Team", and the two parties found the town official office to apply for a deed, Li Song paid 15 yuan of land money, and the contractor team started to build a house for Li Song's owner on the second day.
Fuguo Railway is Li Song's partner, and when he learned about it, Fuguo Iron turned his mind and felt that this might be an opportunity. So a group of people, including Mr. Luo, got together again and discussed it.
Wen Yuan's mind turned quickly, and he also felt that this was an opportunity, there were more than one or two people who built houses in Qu Jiatong, among these people, it is inevitable that there are people who are not strict-mouthed, maybe they can put some effort into these people who build houses, as long as someone opens their mouths and shows their mouths, and then touches the melons along the vine.
Su Zhidao believes that there are not many people in Li Song's rooms, and it is not difficult for Qu Jiatong to choose a dozen strict-mouthed minions. It is better to simply contract the construction of a house by the Baixi official school to Qu Jiatong, the Baixi official school is overcrowded and needs to be expanded urgently. According to the plan, more than 20 new houses will be built, and if they are all contracted to Qu Jiatong, Qu Jiatong will at least send 30 or 40 more people.
Mr. Luo also felt reasonable, anyway, the price of building a house in Qujiatong was very cost-effective, killing two birds with one stone. In addition, most of the money for the expansion of Baixi Official School came from Kang Yuliang's donation - for every set of wax paper engraving equipment sold, Kang Lao took out 5oo Wen from it for Baixi Official School. And as long as it is conducive to retrieving Mao Geng, Kang Lao will support him unconditionally.
So, another ridiculous thing was born! The expansion project of Baixi Official School was also contracted to the "Huaxi Contractor Team", and the government knew that Qu Jiatong was the biggest suspect in kidnapping Mao Geng, but it still wanted Qu Jiatong to build a house to make money, which is really a strange thing!
******
On this day, Mao Geng suddenly remembered a method of preparing fine powder of calcium carbonate, remembering that carbon dioxide was passed into lime emulsion, and then calcium hydroxide reacted with carbon dioxide to become calcium carbonate, and then filtered, dried, and crushed to obtain fine calcium carbonate.
In order to create better inks, it is necessary to produce fine powders, and this fine calcium carbonate is a good ink filler.
Mao Geng felt that he should give it a try, so he started a chemical test in his room. There are no beakers, test tubes or anything, but it is good to have porcelain bowls, and Mao Geng's test equipment is two porcelain bowls and a hollow thatched rod.
Pour lime into a porcelain bowl, stir and let it settle for a while, and then pour the lime water that looks clearer on the upper layer into another porcelain bowl, and then blow into the lime water with a hollow thatched rod.
It's just that the carbon dioxide produced by my own breath is limited, and I don't know how long it takes to blow to make all the calcium hydroxide in the bowl produce calcium carbonate, which is really a test of lung capacity!
Mao Geng continued to blow into the water with his cheeks, but Xiang Yixuan broke in at this time, the door clanged, Mao Geng just finished blowing a breath, and in a shock, he didn't blow back, the calcium carbonate liquid was sucked into his mouth, and his mouth made a circle of white paste, this scene happened to let Xiang Yixuan see, Xiang Yixuan asked curiously:
"Master Mao, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, I'm supplementing calcium, oh, no, no, I'm practicing."
Mao Geng said in his heart, our fine calcium carbonate is also the raw material of the first generation of calcium tablets, but Xiang Yixuan doesn't know what calcium supplementation is, and told him that he is playing the piano to the cow.
This Xiang Yixuan is a little bit more than a mouth, but his brain is not bright in other aspects, especially in front of his scientific knowledge, he is completely cute. Such a guy can not pee on him at all, so he changed his calm tone and asked:
"Brother Xiang will enter this room in the future, please remember to knock on the door. By the way, why do you want to visit the Humble House today? Is there anything difficult to ask me? ”
In the past, Xiang Yixuan usually came here for help, and in front of Xiang Yixuan, Mao Geng gradually cultivated a sense of superiority.
"Hehe, that's right, today is a double happiness."
"What's the double happiness?" , Mao Geng was a little curious, it was rare to be so happy with Yixuan.
"This joy is the joy of Dazhai, tell you, Mao Junshi, the 'Huaxi Contractor Team' has taken over the work of building a house, and there are three places to come."
"Oh!"
Mao Geng built a house that day, and felt that the name Qu Jiatong was too rustic, so he took the word "Huaxi" from Huaxi Village, which was the best in construction contracting in later generations, and it happened that Qu Jiatong was located in the westernmost part of Xinhua, which can be called "Huaxi", but "Huaxi" seemed to owe something, and even the old rough Qu Lai San felt that "Huaxi" was called loudly.
I didn't expect that the name "Huaxi Contractor Team" would contract three houses at once so quickly, which is really a bit unbelievable.
When Mao Geng learned that these three places were Li Song, Baixi Guanxue and Fengjia, he was even more surprised. After being surprised, Mao Geng felt that the outside world should have realized something, and he might have a chance.
Next, Xiang Yixuan said the second joy:
"These two joys are the happy events of Master Mao."
Mao Gengxin said, is it the Yao people who rob relatives and force marriage! Xiang Yixuan Xiang Yixuan, a little creative, okay! You know that your military division looks down on the vulgar the most, and you still take this vulgar thing as a happy event, it's boring!
