Chapter Twenty-Six: When a Man Is Dead, He Is Rich
Limestone, clay crushed and calcined, plus gypsum grinding, is a relatively primitive cement.
It just so happens that limestone, clay, gypsum, and willow are all available here, and there is also a pottery kiln that can be calcined, and it is too simple to make cement.
The rocky ground of the stone slope is too hard to drive piles to build houses, but this is an advantage for the cement, and there is no need to lay the foundation.
I asked Li Sihu to help buy 20 catties of iron, made a batch of steel fibers, smashed them into the rocks, and then poured cement, and the foundation of the building was ready.
Liu Jun uses the Japanese-style construction method, building a double wall and then pouring cement, which looks like a wooden wall on the outside, but when it is smashed open, it is bamboo cement, and the wall of this level is equivalent to a fortress in the era of cold weapons, and it cannot be opened without a cannon.
Liu Jun immediately built a wall and a slope at the entrance of the stone slope, first enclosed the stone slope, and then said, the slope that went up was parallel to the wall, and if you wanted to attack from the slope upward, the entire slope would be within the attack range of the wall.
However, this kind of design is not understood in the backward small villages, and they only think that it is a house built on stone, and some people begin to sour.
However, the national law and family rules are there, and Liu Junjun has the money to build the stone slope, and others will not have any other thoughts except for a few gossips.
Although the materials were all taken on the spot, after the wall and foundation were built, Liu Jun felt the pressure at this time, and a dozen taels of silver was a drop in the bucket for the construction of a defensive manor, and if he could not open up other sources of money, the project would soon have to be stopped.
……
In the evening in the barnyard, more than a dozen women were enjoying the cool weather, some were spinning yarn in their hands, and some were changing old clothes there, with their hands and mouths not stopping.
It didn't take long for the topic to shift from the thieves and Young Master Liu Zhuangbiao to Liu Jun, which are all recent hot events.
If it is a man, he will pay more attention to the thief, and the unmarried girl will pay more attention to the young master, and married women like them will pay more attention to the matter of Liu Junqi's house.
"Not long after a man dies, he has money to build a house, and as the saying goes, a man dies and has money." Li Sangu said jealously.
For most women, the house is the ultimate pursuit of a lifetime, only with a house can there be a home, only with a home can there be a sense of security, and men have times when they are unreliable, but the house will always be reliable.
Sad, injured, dumped, and locked the door when I got home, I cried or ate a lot, and I was full of vitality the next day.
If you have a house, if it hurts, then it hurts, and if you don't have a house, it hurts, it is called a long pain, just like a time when you cut open a bleeding wound that never heals.
So seeing Liu Jun suddenly occupy such a large piece of land to build a house, many people's hearts were sour.
However, Li Sangu's metaphor is vicious, 'Dead men are rich' is a metaphor for those secret prostitutes who do not abide by women's morals and laugh according to the door, what does she mean by putting it on Liu Jun now?
But she didn't name her, but who was present couldn't hear who she was referring to?
But this is not surprising, many times, the greatest malice towards women comes from other women, and the most harsh on women is also women, and sometimes even their own female elders.
On the contrary, men generally have no ill will towards women, at most they want to sleep when they see a beautiful one, and they just don't care if they are not beautiful. But between two women, they can often curse each other to kill the whole family because of some trivial things.
Li Sangu's vicious words, everyone is not surprised, but someone responds: "Who said no, I don't know where the money came from, shouldn't it be the private money of the dead ghost man?" ”
"Haha, it's possible, private money, does your man hide private money?"
"Dare? The legs are discounted for him! ”
"How many legs?"
"Ouch, you skinless and faceless."
"I don't know if the fourth sister-in-law discounted his man's legs, but I hear the fourth sister-in-law crying by her man every night."
"I'll pinch you to death."
The topic of the man and the private money turned around a few times, and then returned to Liu Jun, Zhu Liupo said: "I dare to build a house on the stone shell, and I am not afraid of a gust of wind to blow it away." ”
"The place on the stone slope is not small, she blocked the slope, no one can go up, is it possible that she really has the money to build such a big house? It is estimated that the old mansion of Liu Zhuang is not so big. ”
"The village chief didn't go to talk about it, so let her occupy such a big land?"
Li Sangu said angrily: "The village chief said that whoever has the ability will occupy it, and if it is occupied, it will have to be built, and it can't be empty there, so I will see what ability she has to build all the places she occupies." ”
Someone who dared to love really went to the village chief to talk about it, and listening to that tone was what Li Sangu said.
After a pause, she continued: "I guess the village chief is unwilling to care, this Liu Shi Niang is very insidious, he has won over the seventh master and his family early, and the village chief has the seventh master to help speak, the tofu brain heard that it is sold in Liu Zhuang is very popular, in order to pull Li Qiye to speak to her, even the good business has been let out, hum, maybe it will ......." ”
Speaking of this, Li Sangu suddenly became agitated and swallowed back the next words.
But all the people present are human essences, and it is useless to swallow it back, no one can guess what she wants to say later, it is nothing more than suspecting that Liu Jun and Li Qiye have hooked up. But this kind of talk is too taboo, and Li Sangu doesn't dare to say it.
Li Qiye is the elder of the clan, the elder of the clan, for a village composed of almost the same surname, the elder of the clan is the elder of the villagers, if you suspect that the elder of the clan has an improper relationship with the younger generation, it is tantamount to accusing them of being disorderly, if there is no evidence, the person who says such things will definitely be killed.
Li Sangu didn't want to be beaten to death, so she could only swallow her words back.
But the words were provoked, and it was useless to swallow it back, just at this time, the women sitting in front of Li Sangu changed color, and their eyes flickered in other directions, and they didn't dare to look behind Li Sangu anymore.
Li Sangu looked back and saw that not far behind her, Liu Jun in a long skirt was standing there, and the evening sun shone from behind her, making her facial features hidden in the shadows and looking gloomy.
