Chapter 103: Making Cement (2)
The allure of money is the driving force!
She laughed; "If you all want to, work together to explore the test, and I will cover all the cost of the materials needed for the test. Three days later, in the morning, you went to the Xuanfang Qin Wang's Mansion to find the manager, and said that it was ordered by the King of Qin. ”
Several people were stunned when they heard that they were going to the palace to find someone, they didn't even dare to approach the place where the county commander lived, and they took a detour in the same place, which is the concept of respect and inferiority that is deeply rooted in their bones.
Li Zhi sneered: "Gongzi Xie, we don't dare to go to the palace, can we change places?" ”
Xie Yufei was stunned for a moment and asked, "What is the reason?" ”
Lao Liangtou explained: "We are all low-class people, but we dare not get close to the place where the nobles live, and even the nobles' slaves are more expensive than us." ”
The meaning in his heart was not expressed, the noble slaves were arrogant, but they were bullying masters, and they had to stay away when they met them on the road.
"Don't worry, my husband, this matter is up to me, Manager Qin is as kind and amiable as me, you can rest assured." Xie Yufei said with a smile.
Whether Qin Er is amiable or not, Xia Yiyu can be determined.
When a few people heard this, they felt a little relieved, and if they could be as kind as Gongzi Xie, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Xie Yufei warned them again not to leak his words, and then led them back to the craftsman team.
"Yu Fei, what are you mysterious about? What do you say to them? Xia Yiyu asked curiously. He didn't allow him to come with him just now.
Xie Yufei smiled and said: "It is indeed mysterious, these old men will be my craftsmen in the future, it is inconvenient for many people here to speak, let's continue to explore and plan first." ”
"Yu Fei, these people are already old, why don't you look for younger ones?" Xia Yiyu frowned.
When a few old men heard him say this, their hearts were not happy!
What is young, who hasn't been young? Are you old? Really, there is an old man in the family if there is a treasure, Lao Shizi Wang Ye Bai has a good skin, his heart is broken, he doesn't know how to cherish the old man, we can have five people, five treasures.
The five of them didn't dare to show their dissatisfaction with the prince all the way, venting their dissatisfaction in their hearts, despising the back of the person walking in front, and muttering to him.
Xie Yufei led a group of people to check the burst drain along the way, and the drainage in the workshop mainly relied on the ditches on both sides of the street.
These ditches were connected to the drainage channels in the city, and the smaller ones were built with multiple outlets to communicate with other small culverts.
The big ditch is a pottery pipe, just like the water pipe for later generations, as well as a tee, a bent barrel interface, an unexpected scene, she was not shocked, because later generations have excavated the pottery pipe of the Qin Dynasty as a drainage pipe, and the earliest establishment of the drainage system was the Qin Dynasty more than 2000 years ago.
Xie Yufei admires the ancient concept of drainage, these ditches basically take the concept of "water flowing down" to the extreme, even if the terrain is flat, to create conditions so that the water flow is discharged by gravity.
After reading these, Xie Yufei, as a modern person, didn't find anything that needed her guidance at all, and the wisdom of the ancestors was really admirable.
The two of them got into the carriage, Xia Yiyu couldn't help the doubts in his heart, and couldn't wait to speak: "Yu Fei, what are you doing?" ”
Xie Yufei saw his impatient question, so he stopped selling Guan Zi and said with a smile: "I want to make cement, and those five craftsmen are my team to build the cement factory." ”
Xia Yiyu saw that there was a little excitement in her words, and he asked curiously, "What is cement?" ”
Xie Yufei's tone was eager, and said: "Cement is a masonry material, dry and heat-resistant can be used to build houses, cement is strong and wear-resistant can be used to repair bridges and pave roads, the price is lower than that of stone brick pavement, and the paved road is smooth and smooth, the carriage does not feel bumpy when walking on it, cement is very suitable for building embankments, and it can be durable when soaked in water." ”
Xia Yiyu was surprised but convinced, and he asked, "Yu Fei made a cement workshop?" ”
Xie Yufei snorted lightly and said excitedly: "As long as the cement factory is good at monopoly, this is the only one, and it can make a lot of money." However, we can't come forward in this matter, and we want to jointly operate a cement factory with Yongwang, so that we will not be jealous, and there will be no hindrance from the second prince. You go and talk to King Yong. ”
Xia Yiyu looked at her and said softly: "Yu Fei talks to Uncle Wang, I'll help you make an appointment with him, you are already a quasi-royal daughter-in-law!" ”
She smiled helplessly: "This matter is sooner rather than later, just tonight, where to meet?" It needs to be secretive, and you can't leak the traces. ”
Xia Yiyu pretended to be mysterious and kept silent.
"Lord Wang, please speak!"
Didn't get a response!
"Please tell the prince!"
Xie Yufei was angry and kicked his foot at him.
He was accustomed to being kicked and had been on guard, so he quickly grabbed the messy foot, pressed his hands tightly on his knees, and pulled a smile of successful treacherous calculation.
smiled but roared angrily: "Yu Fei, how can you be so disagreeable? ”
Xie Yufei immediately woke up to the fact that this guy was deliberate!
Still cheap and angry?
She said, "Please elaborate, why am I not like it?" ”
Xia Yiyu's face was solemn: "A woman is smart and wise to press all men down, it's so unbelievable, you are actually beautiful!" ”
The world loves to hear praise from others, and even more so to hear the praise of those you love!
She snorted: "Explain to Qin Er, after three days, I will look for a few doors in the mansion, and the five craftsmen will go to find him and ask him to settle them down politely, that is my food and clothing." ”
At night, Xie Yufei followed Xia Yiyu to a deep alley in Xuanfang.
There are several wine shops in the deep alleys, and Xie Yufei and the others are dressed ordinarily, like ordinary drinkers.
The two entered a wine shop without a plaque on the door, and only the lantern hanging at the door read 'Deep Alley Wine'.
Arriving in the underground cellar, a servant leads them into a dark room, where the walls open to reveal a passage leading to a secret room.
King Yong was already sitting here, and Xie Yufei stepped forward to give a deep salute.
"Girls don't have to be polite!" King Yong smiled and waved his hand.
After Xia Yiyu greeted King Yong, he first picked out and said, "Uncle Wang, my father has promised to let Yu Fei enter the genealogy and hold the jade butterfly!" ”
For him to have this move, Xie Yufei felt sweet in her heart, and her status with Yongwang was closer, so that there was less estrangement between her and Yongwang.
King Yong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled: "Oh? Then congratulations to the third nephew for getting what he wanted, and congratulations to the third nephew and daughter-in-law, I wish you an early birth of a precious son! ”
Xie Yufei sighed secretly: King Yong is so powerful, he gave birth to a noble son early when he opened his mouth, so it is even more difficult for her to push the marriage date back!
She secretly glanced at Xia Yiyu, who was smiling from ear to ear at the moment.
King Yong went straight to the point and asked, "I don't know what my nephew has to tell me to find this king?" ”
"Uncle Wang, it's Yu Fei who came to you to discuss things! She is the guest of honor, and her nephew is just a guest," Xia Yiyu said with a smile.
King Yong looked at her and asked curiously, "Oh? I don't know what the nephew is looking for this king? ”
"Lord Wang, I want to find you to co-set up a cement workshop!" Xie Yufei stood aside and described the use of cement in detail.
King Yong was shocked: "According to what you say, cement can not only make money, but also benefit the country and the people?" ”
