These are houses made of concrete! After the engineering team cleaned up these squares with cement, Liu Mang took Yang Hong and others to inspect and watch in front of those houses, cement is a major breakthrough in industrialization, he is the cornerstone If there is no cement, then a qiē is in vain, such as some factories, and all kinds of buildings need cement, it can be said that the cement for building houses is the second wave of experiments, the first wave is applicable to the manufacture of industrial areas, and the second wave is now this, if these cements can be used, Then it will be used on the city wall, as well as on the dam, there are four dams around Shouchun, these dams were originally used for the purpose of irrigating the fields, and it is an important water conservancy project, but who knows that it was flooded by Lao Cao, who made Shouchun's terrain low, Liu Mang will not let this scene be born, so all the four dams, Liu Mang has not been rebuilt, just for fear that others will play a flood Shouchun, that no matter how many soldiers and horses can't bear it, water and fire are ruthless, Even if the power of nature is in the present world, it can only be used, not conquered, but the four dams must be built, because with these four dams, the fertile fields around Shouchun can be more than doubled, and now there are more than one million people, Liu Mang's fertile fields have begun to be insufficient, and the past two years have been a dry year, there is rain but not big, some of the fertile fields are not enough water at all, and there is also a point that once there is a once-in-a-century heavy rain, then Shouchun's qiē will be over, Liu Mang was afraid that a heavy rain would wash away Shouchun once in a century, and he was afraid that after the dam was built, it would be destroyed by people to flood Shouchun, and now with such a thing, Liu Mang doesn't need to worry much. Because the hardness of cement is not low. If he were used throughout the dam. Unless explosives are made for this era. Otherwise, don't want to destroy the dam, so that the four dams can not only irrigate the land but also prevent floods, so as soon as the cement house was notified that it had been made and dried, Liu Mang came.
"Flutter, flutter!" Liu Mang is still talking about it, cement, although this is only the simplest cement. But this is already a breakthrough in the heavy dà, if it weren't for such a big housing pressure, I'm afraid Liu Mang would not have been able to create such a thing.
……
"Can you live in a house like this?" The people who stayed in the city expressed great doubts, they watched these houses be built, they were all made of ash and water, there were basically no green bricks in them, or they were mixed with wooden strips and those cements, and the cement that the government said was a soft mess, can such a house be lived? Don't collapse as soon as you move in, those old people are most worried because their own houses can't afford to use bricks even if they are inside. You have to use gravel, but there is nothing in the house in front of you. One by one, the old men hesitated and did not dare to enter.
"It's all made of ash, water, and bamboo, and I'm scared!" An old man expressed his worries, he had lived in a tent for many days, and who would want to live outside with a new house, there were tents outside, but the tents would still leak at night. The young people are still strong and strong, but the old people and children can't bear it.
"I'd better go back to my tent!" An old man was frightened, he was really afraid that these houses would collapse when the night wind blew him, so that people buried in it would be over, although he was old, but he still wanted to live a good life for a few years.
"yes, yes, let's live in a tent!" The other old people are also agreeing, they don't dare to live in a house that is only made of ash and water, it feels like a fake trick that can kill you at any time.
"First there were a few people, now it's a small group of people, and after the difficulty, most of them don't dare to live in this concrete house.
"Old thing, you can't live it!" An official on the side who is responsible for letting the people live in the new house is a little anxious, you must know that Liu Mang's order is to let the first batch of people live in the new house within five days, because setting up a tent outside is not a long-term solution, Huainan is rainy, the ground is very humid, and if you live for a few months, the people's bodies can not bear it, even if you are a young person, that kind of humidity can make you a disaster for a lifetime.
"Don't stop, you can't stop fighting!" The old man naturally has the stubbornness of the old man, the old man, the old man, what he said is that the old man will never let go of the reason for death.
"You!" The officials are really angry, if these people can't live in, then his lord Liu Mang will definitely be angry, Liu Mang is angry, does he still have a good life for such a small official! And he was recruited by Liu Mang's previous recruitment order, he was a poor boy, he had such an opportunity to show his talent, and he was naturally reluctant to abandon it, and he was ready to raise the whip in his hand in anger.
"Stop!" Liu Mang frowned, he and Yang Hong came out in civilian clothes, and Huang Zhong and two guards were beside him, and at a glance, he saw an official raising the leather whip in his hand to draw it on the old man on the side. These are Han people, not foreigners, and Liu Mang doesn't need those officials who ride on the heads of the people.
Huang Zhong stepped forward and directly snatched the leather whip from the official's hand.
"What's going on?!" Liu Mang is not a character who doesn't know how to be flexible and doesn't look straight in front of him, so he didn't directly blame the official but asked what happened.
"Ah, lord, lord!" This little official appeared in Hefei that day, and he was naturally impressed by Liu Mang at that time, and he stammered a little when he saw Liu Mang walking in front of him.
"My lord? You are His Highness the Holy King?! "The old man on the side is not a fool, hearing this little official shouting like this, so I don't know who is coming, Liu Mang now has a very high reputation among the people, and the Son of Heaven also made a decree to crown Liu Mang as the holy king, you must know that the ancient people still have a lot of respect for the emperor Lao Tzu, although there is no such perverted bullshit emperor as the little Dongyang in the east, unless he can't get by, he is a very docile group of people, and when he saw this, the holy king hurriedly knelt down." The grass people have seen His Highness the Holy King! ”
"What. This young man is His Royal Highness the Holy King! "Someone couldn't believe it. In their opinion, the emperor Lao Tzu and those kings should be the kind of people who can't be older. Come with a white beard and a noble and solemn face, instead of such a figure in front of me who is now dressed in civilian cloth like a neighbor's second boy.
"Get down on your knees yet! This is the Holy King, the Holy King of my Great Han Dynasty! "A large number of people knelt down on the whole construction site.
"I can't do it, I can't help it, please get up, please get up quickly!" If Liu Mang was his subordinate and kneeling him, he would be able to bear it. Even those historical celebrities such as Zhao Yun and Xu Sheng, Liu Mang can bear it, but these ordinary people, especially those who are seventy or eighty years old, Liu Mang really has a feeling that he can't stand it, because the Chinese virtue is to respect the old and love the young, and the old people kneel down to worship Liu Mang and feel that they are going to die.
Liu Mang wanted to help the old man up, but it was not one or two people kneeling behind him, and in desperation, Liu Mang could only grimacing, "Don't you all listen to me, the holy king!" I tell you all to get up! "The ground was damp, and it was very uncomfortable to kneel on the ground.
Liu Mang lowered his voice. One by one, they stood up.
"Tell me, why do you dare to pick up the whip and throw it at such an old man!" Liu Mang looked at this little official coldly. This is a family of poor people, it was Liu Mang who gave him the opportunity to be promoted, Liu Mang Shouchun basically the officials are the children of the poor family, they should also come out of the common people, they should compare their hearts to others, if they are just one of them as an official master, hehe, then I'm sorry either you give me a fuck out, or you give me a good explanation of the reason.
"Lord, this, this!" The little officials are all in cold sweat, Liu Mang said to these subordinates when those people arrived, you are officials, although I Liu Mang is raising you, but our money is not falling from the sky, but the taxes taught by this ordinary people, it can be said that it is those ordinary people who give you money, they are your food and clothing parents, without them, where do you come to eat and where do you wear, if you still regard yourself as an official, then don't blame me Liu Mang for being ruthless.
Now that he has been caught by Liu Mang, can he not worry! Now is not a peaceful and prosperous era, if you are lucky, you will lose your official position at most, and if you are unlucky, you can really be killed by Liu Mang. Frightened, the petty officials could not speak.
"Where did this whip come from? Do you want to enslave the people below? With a leather whip?! Liu Mang took the whip in the hands of the petty official, and his tone was very flat, the more bland it was, the more scared this person was, "The lord spares his life, the lord spares his life, but his subordinates are lost for a while"
Do you really think of yourself as an official? Liu Mang's eyes flashed with a cold light, so this person doesn't need to stay in Liu Mang's army, Liu Mang put the whip in Huang Zhong's hand, and he wants people to drag this little official down, kill a hundred people, kill chickens and monkeys, the first to break the law is often the most unlucky, originally Liu Mang just planned to expel this little official, but now he is really going to kill him.
More than a million people, although it is a very heavy burden, but Liu Mang resisted hard, he also knew that this might be Sun Ce and Liu Bei's conspiracy, but Liu Mang had to eat, because the war for hegemony, the fight is the population, is the comprehensive strength, the more the population base, you can have more manpower and material resources, the reason why China has not disappeared in the long river of history like other ancient nations for 5,000 years is because the Chinese people have a large base, whether it is a civil war or a foreign race, They can only be assimilated by the Chinese nation, and cannot be conquered.
Liu Mang didn't let these officials fly high and domineering, in addition to because he didn't like it, there was also a reason that these people came from one township after another, like those people in Shanyue were even more mountain after mountain, if the little official just now really whipped up, then maybe there would be a big trouble, these old men are all elders, and they are still very prestigious among the people, but once the people make a fuss. That's really a big problem, and then the involvement is deeper and wider.
"The lord spares his life, the lord spares his life!" Liu Mang is very strict with the law, if someone violates it, it will definitely not be able to escape, I didn't see that he even fainted himself! Those who are cruel to themselves are ruthless to others.
"His Highness the Holy King! Let the old man say a word! The old man on the side was not an unreasonable person, and when he saw this young young student kneeling on the ground, he was so frightened that even his snot came out. The old man's heart also moved a little.
"Uncle, you say!" Liu Mang just wanted to know the whole thing.
"Where's the whip? It should be the whip that the little brother drove the carriage! The old man said, pointing to the leather whip. This is the first phase of the building, and it will be built later, so the carriages are still coming and going here, and the leather whip is used to drive the carriages.
"Oh! Hansheng gave him back the whip! "It's not good to take it out as a prestige, if it's just Liu Mang who is just driving, he won't be punished.
"Then uncle, he raised his whip at you just now, why is that?!" Liu Mang still wanted to ask about this.
"That's because, that little brother is angry!" The old man will not hide anything.
"I'm angry!" Liu Mang's brows furrowed again, if everyone is like this official, then it won't be corrupt and **! In troubled times, this is what Han Feizi and Shang Ying said, and Liu Mang also firmly believes this.
"Nope. No, no! The old man still saw that Liu Mang had misunderstood, "His Royal Highness the Holy King, this little brother also told us that he wants to let us people live in this new house within two days, and he is helpless, if it can't be arranged, he may be dismissed, but this house, we really don't dare to live in it, His Royal Highness the Holy King." These houses are all made of lime and water, and you say he won't be blown by the wind! It turned out that before this, the little official was also smiling and patiently talking over and over again. But these people just don't believe it, after all, they don't know what cement is, so they naturally don't dare to live in it, and they talk bitterly over and over again, even if they are patient, they can't stand it, so this is why Liu Mang saw the little official wielding a leather whip before, and he waved the leather whip to scare and scare and didn't dare to really fight.
"Humph!" Liu Mang snorted coldly, he also knew that he was a little strict with these officials, and if he didn't do a good job, he would be removed from his post in one sentence, which made these poor disciples cherish their position very much, this is Liu Mang's fault, but now there are more than one million people, and a small problem multiplied by more than one million is a big problem, so Liu Mang has to be strict, but it will be much better when they all settle down.
"The old man has bypassed you, so naturally I won't pursue much, but if you are disrespectful to the people, you will also be punished, so you will be punished for adding items to the uncle's house this month! How is it?! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, lord, thank you, uncle! The little official hurriedly nodded and thanked him, how dare he have any opinions, it is a good thing to be able to save his life, and now Liu Mang not only did not kill him, nor did he remove him, but he was only punished for a month, of course he was happy.
"Let's go down!" Liu Mang waved his hand and said.
"His Royal Highness the Holy King is worthy of being my Great Han Holy King, who loves the people like a son!" The old man knelt down again, there has never been an official like this, this old man is from Jingzhou, under the rule of Jingzhou, the officials are not to the people who come and go immediately, even if they are whipped, the people can only endure the pain to their hearts.
"His Highness the Holy King loves the people like a son!"
"Get up, get up!" Liu Mang was smiling on the surface, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart, if he didn't love the people, he could do it! Although Liu Mang is a person from the present world, and the equality of everyone has been deeply rooted in his heart, but this is the Han Dynasty, it is the feudal era, and it is also a troubled era, the hierarchy is very strict, even if the difference between the rich and the rich in modern times is very big, Liu Mang loves the people like a son, that is because he wants to hold these people as uncles, because Liu Mang's military rations are really insufficient, and the people may not be able to eat for a long time. If Liu Mangjun continues to be powerful among the people, the people's grievances will accumulate over time, and it may really be reversed. And if Liu Mang is very popular, Liu Mang does not need such people to live and die with his own Liu Mang army, but the common people may hold on for a longer time when they are not full of food, and the more likely they are to riot.
You don't see, when Lujiang Taishou 6 Kang took the people and their families to hide in the Wancheng prison after the Anhui City was broken, and put down the jack pendant, there was no food at that time, as long as the people opened the jack pendant, Sun Ce had to let them go in order to appease the people, and they could get out alive, but none of the people in the group had any objections, and finally all starved to death in the Wancheng prison.
"The problem of this house, uncle, you can rest assured, the quality of these houses is absolutely sufficient, not to mention the wind, even if the fire is difficult to burn him down! These cement buildings are no worse than bluestone, "Most of the houses in ancient times were made of wood, so he was extremely afraid of fire, and once the fire broke out. That burn is a series of houses. Difficult to extinguish. Liu Mang said and asked Huang Zhong to take a sword and chop on these houses, the hardness of cement was already very strong, he was afraid of blunt weapons, but he was not very afraid of sharpness, although several places were cut out of the gap, but the people still had a general impression of this cement.
Although the sword could not be cut down, those people were still watching, and Liu Mang nodded in his heart. It seems that if you don't lead by example, it is impossible for these people to live in, and this is also if it is yourself, you will have a certain fear when you encounter a strange thing, just like a proverb says that the first person to eat crabs! Crabs used to be like locusts, crabs have pincers and can prey on seedlings, so the appearance of crabs in the fields is a big deal, and if they are caught, they are thrown into other people's fields, and the people are very afraid as if they are afraid of locust plagues. If he hadn't eaten the crab first, maybe the big guy would still think it was a pest. But with the first one to eat crabs, it was different, the deliciousness of crabs, which other animals could not match, and from that time on, crabs officially became a dish and not a pest.
"Hansheng, you send someone back to help me bring my bedding and clothes, and then let the two maids help me clean up!" Liu Mang said to Huang Zhong.
"What are you?!" Yang Hong is a little confused?
"I've been living here since then! This one, this one, and that one will empty them for me! Bring me everything in my tent, and I'll work here, and let them find me here!" Hansheng, let the Chengguan Army send a team of soldiers and horses to take over the security here! Liu Mang said to Yang Hong.
"Live here? No, master! Yang Hong was a little anxious, he also knew these cements, although he knew that the cement was very hard, but he was still on guard against this new thing like those old men, and it was so bare here, where could it be compared to the Shouchun Palace.
"Ann, Ann!" Liu Mang waved his hand and asked Yang Hong not to persuade him anymore, he has not lived here for a long time, at most more than a month, what he needs is to make the people feel at ease.
Huang Zhong really brought all the things in the side hall of the Shouchun Palace very quickly, occupied ten bungalows, and sent additional guards to guard the surroundings, and Liu Mang officially stayed.
With Liu Mang taking the lead, those people also lived in it one by one, after all, there was a great Han Holy King who lived in it himself, if it was blown by the wind, then a noble person might disregard his life.
Sure enough, Liu Mang really only lived for more than a month, because something happened! Wancheng Zhang Xiu sent an envoy to Lujiang to ask why Lu Bu sent soldiers and horses to rob him of his gold, this is still the general of Pingdong of the Han Dynasty, what is the difference between it and robbers, it is said that the batch of gold is 16,000 gold.
What kind of person is Lu Bu! was originally an extremely arrogant character, being scolded by someone pointing his nose like this, Lu Bu didn't bother to explain at all, the messenger dared to scold, he dared to kill, Zhang Xiu was something in Lu Bu's heart, his uncle Zhang Ji didn't dare to treat Lu Bu like this when he saw Lu Bu was also a Wenhou, now such a junior, dare to kick his nose and eyes, don't say that he Lu Bu didn't rob, even if he robbed it, what if he robbed it, isn't this looking for a draw!
Wancheng Zhang Xiu saw this posture, then it was sure that this gold was snatched by Lu Bu, after all, the place where the gold was lost was in Jingzhou Liu Biao, Wancheng Zhang Xiu himself, and Yuzhou Liu Bei Lu Jiang Lu Bu, the person who sent the gold was Liu Bei, so Liu Bei could not send his own people to rob it, Jingzhou Liu Biao was busy fighting with Jiangdong Sun Ce, he didn't have soldiers and horses to come here, so the rest was only Lu Bu.
First, Lu Bu disdained to explain that he killed the envoy in Wancheng because he was angry and a thief, second, Lu Bu had cavalry, and he could go a hundred miles a day, so he could naturally snatch this batch of gold, and third, Lu Bu was very poor now, and he spent most of his savings for food and grass, and this sixteen,000 gold was really tempting for Lu Bu.
The gold was robbed, the messenger was killed, how could Zhang Xiu endure it, and immediately started the war with a wave of his big hand. Twenty thousand Xiliang iron horsemen suddenly started from Wancheng towards the Lujiang River in Yangzhou. (To be continued......)
