Chapter 277: I almost didn't come back
Seeing that she was puzzled, Lu Tingxiu smiled, "The Ministry of Industry has allocated a lot of money, and I have slightly raised the wages of laborers, and many strong laborers from other counties and even other states and counties have rushed over to sign up to make a lot of money." β
There were more laborers, and the post roads were naturally built quickly, but the problems that followed were becoming more and more serious, and food was in short supply.
It is imperative to open up a new grain road, which is why Lu Tingxiu is still studying the post road late at night. As long as the problem of crossing the canyon of Phoenix Mountain is solved, all the problems will be solved.
Although the Phoenix Canyon is not wide, only a dozen zhang, the water flow is turbulent, and the mountains on both sides are steep, so it is impossible to drive.
Xia Qiu thought thoughtfully, "Do you want to use a sling to transport grain?" "That kind of place is so dangerous, even people have to master the skill of slinging, she can't imagine how to transport such a dead thing as food. Even if it can be hoisted over, the progress of the bags is too slow, so that Lei Da has to prepare another team of grain trucks on the shore side, and the labor and efficiency are half slower.
This is just Lu Tingxiu's idea, but if it is not feasible, we have to discuss it with Li Jingxuan. He is a leader in bridge design, and there may be unexpected gains.
Many things have been created from scratch, including the design of this post road, which can be described as a drastic change, turning the moat into a thoroughfare.
These are all Lu Tingxiu's amazing ideas, and now they are being realized one by one, and Xia Qiu of course supports him unconditionally.
"Do you know that Li Gongzi was scared because of your soul." Lu Tingxiu glanced at Xia Qiu, "This time I came to Talin County, maybe how to repay you?" β
Why does Xia Qiu think he has something to say?
"He's so weak, he can't lift his hands and shoulders, how can he repay me?"
Lu Tingxiu said smoothly: "I couldn't lift my hands and shoulders before. β
Xia Qiu was a little confused, and always felt that it seemed a little strange for him to mention Li Jingxuan. After thinking about it for a while, she finally smelled vinegar with a sensitive nose.
"What, I'm afraid I'll like Li Gongzi?" Xia Qiu's eyes rolled, and he deliberately quipped: "Li Gongzi is really good, although his body is a little weaker, but he was born in a big family in Liangzhou, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a famous family, and he is gentle and handsome, but he ......."
"Xia Chubby!" Before she finished speaking, Lu Tingxiu had already begun to warn her, "You are a married woman, don't keep eating from the bowl and looking at the pot." β
"Who eats from the bowl and looks at the pot?" Xia Qiu chuckled and choked him, "I just found out today that Dr. Lu is so jealous." β
Lu Tingxiu stammered, and his face darkened. What is jealous, he is from here, then Li Jingxuan's eyes are very different when he looks at her, so he didn't write on his forehead: Promise by body!
Xia Qiu couldn't help laughing, "Look at your little belly, Li Gongzi doesn't know my daughter at all." β
Lu Tingxiu: "......" said that she was smart, but she was really stupid. She has never been harsh on herself, that face can pinch out the water, and this figure is soft and graceful, do you really think that she is very successful in dressing up as a man? The man is not blind, the real thing and the fake can be recognized at a glance, not to mention that she was still wet with Li Jingxuan in the cave, and he dug her out of the mudslide afterwards.
Of course, Lu Tingxiu would not praise her in person, saving her from being proud. In short, it's good to say that he has a small belly, if he doesn't have official business, he doesn't want Li Jingxuan to come to Lin County at all.
His face was full of unhappiness, and Xia Qiu was not stupid. However, in the past, he was too deep in the city, and his joys, sorrows, and sorrows were never exposed, but now he was jealous in front of her, which made her very useful.
"I saved Li Gongzi for you, and I don't want you to lose a usable talent." Xia Qiu looked at him with a smile, "How are you going to repay me?" β
How to repay?
Everyone is hers, and she wants to repay her.
Lu Tingxiu suddenly came up with an idea, he packed up the map and blew out the light in the study, and pulled Xia Qiu out, "Isn't it just to repay it, I can do it now." β
Xia Qiu's face immediately turned red and beat him.
Lu Tingxiu wrapped her fist with his backhand and pulled her into the room, "Why are you shy?" "It's not the first time.
Wei Ge set off with Xu Mingming, Xia Qiu deliberately got up early in the morning, made him a hearty breakfast, and then prepared dry food and money, and advised: "Those people in Liangzhou are deceitful to me, this mission may not be peaceful, you should pay more attention." β
The first time he was taken care of by Xia Qiu, Wei Ge was stunned and reminded: "Sister Xia, Lord Lu won't go with me." β
"I know." Wei Ge is a little naΓ―ve, it is precisely because Lord Lu is not going that she specially advised.
Wei Ge was weird and left under the gaze of Xia Qiu.
I was busy until late last night, and Lu Tingxiu got up in the morning and slept after morning exercise. I got up late, and as soon as I finished breakfast, Li Jingxuan had already come.
He set off at dawn and came from Phoenix Mountain early in the morning.
The body is weak, and it seems that he is also infected with the wind village, his face is pale and terrible, and he coughs from time to time.
Xia Qiu instructed Xiao Shao to go to the kitchen to cook some ginger soup and syrup, and personally brought it to the study.
Li Jingxuan listened to Lu Tingxiu's idea and was pondering whether it was feasible when Xia Qiu walked in.
Dressed in a hairpin skirt, her face is like a hibiscus out of water, and her body is still full of fragrance. Li Jingxuan glanced up at her, and his face quickly turned red, "Xia...... Summer girl. β
Xia Qiu Luoluo greeted him generously, "Master Li, long time no see." β
Li Jingxuan's ears were red, "Last time, you saved each other with death, and you couldn't repay you in the future, it's really ashamed." β
Xia Qiu sat down beside Lu Tingxiu, "Li Gongzi is serious, in that case, anyone will come to the rescue." You are a genius in bridge design, and now you are planning to build a post road for the imperial court to benefit the people of the southwest, which is already the best reward for me. β
After a brief greeting, Lu Tingxiu and Li Jingxuan continued to discuss the possibility of sling to cross the grain.
is related to the supply of summer and autumn grain stores, and she did not shy away from staying directly to observe.
According to the load of the grain truck, combined with the topography on both sides of Phoenix Mountain, Li Jingxuan thought for a long time before saying: "It's not impossible, it's just that the cableway needs to be redesigned, and it needs to be changed in both directions." The terrain difference between the two sides is not large, if the sling is pulled high on the mountainside, and it is inconvenient for the grain truck to climb the slope, I recommend using the winch cable, borrowing the power of the machine to pull the sling, so as to save time and effort. β
Xia Qiu heard a rough idea, and he wanted to use the machine sling to lift the entire grain truck from the opposite bank.
Lu Tingxiu admired his imagination and felt that he could try it on the spot, if he could solve this problem, the grain would be directly transported to the construction site, which would not only save labor, but also save most of the distance. In addition to the cheap food, it also saves a considerable amount of freight.
While they were discussing, the big voice of the master of Lei Da came, "Lord Lu." β
Lu Tingxiu was looking forward to his good news, and Xia Qiu welcomed people in, "Brother Lei, how are things going?" β
Lei Da Boss rushed back from Hexian County all the way without stopping, and said with a disgraced face: "Don't mention it, I almost didn't come back." β
