......

"What is the ash?" Wang Shouzhe asked with some curiosity after letting go of the maritime merchant's thoughts.

"Ash is a building material made from oysters, shells, and other objects by kiln firing. Chen Fanghua accepted, "The use of lime and river sand in the right ratio can well bond the bricks and stones, making the stones as hard as the whole, which is often used in the walls of the family or the government." Because the production is not much, the price is not cheap. Young Master Wang, you should be from a noble background, and it is normal that you are not familiar with this basic building materials. ”

"I see. Wang Shouzhe 'suddenly realized' and was overjoyed, "It's really better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, and Wang has gained a lot of knowledge." ”

Sounds like a kind of variant of cement? Wang Shouzhe pondered slightly, why didn't he think of such a thing as cement before? If this thing is made, even if it is not sold to the outside world for the time being, it will be extremely beneficial to the family's infrastructure.

However, speaking of which, Wang Shouzhe's understanding of how cement is produced is only a relatively vague approximation. However, as long as there is a general direction, and you are willing to invest some manpower and funds, it will be a matter of time before you get it out.

In addition, the concrete structure of the building is very strong, whether it is to build a house or build a water conservancy facility, it is also very good for improving the safety of the family as a whole.

Immediately, Wang Shouzhe included the cement industry in his future R&D plan.

"Young Master Wang, the best thing about Baidaowei is some sea delicacies. Chen Fanghua said, "It is very difficult to store and transport fresh sea treasures, so most of the sea treasures transported to the inland are pickled and dried products. If you want to eat sea delicacies, it is best to take advantage of the freshness. Today, I'll arrange for Young Master Wang to taste it......"

"Thank you, Brother Chen, for your kindness. Wang Shouzhe excused himself, "It's just that it's hard to travel at sea, and my family is already a little tired." It's better to rest for a few days, and I will be the host to thank Brother Chen. ”

He and Longyan Ancestor worked tirelessly to come to Baidaowei, not to eat two bites of delicious sea treasures. What's more, Wang Shouzhe is still holding back his stomach to communicate with Longyan Ancestor.

"That's according to Young Master Wang's wishes. It's just that the young patriarch has instructed to entertain the distinguished guests well, so Young Master Wang should not embarrass me, let our Chen family be the east. Chen Fanghua said with a smile.

Then, walk along and talk.

After a while, he entered the city of Baidaowei Jinsha. The castle stands on top of the island, and the rocks used are very rough and made of local materials. Wang Shouzhe paid special attention to it, and the middle of the rock was filled with some kind of gray-white limestone, which should be the gray mentioned in Chen Fanghua's mouth before.

Even the main city wall is made of ash, which shows that the firmness of the binder mixed with ash and sand is very high, but I don't know who is stronger than cement concrete?

This problem has to be "developed" by Wang Shouzhe to be able to confirm the judgment, and it will not be pressed for the time being.

After entering Sands City, everyone temporarily checked in in a first-class "restaurant". Under the control of Chen Fanghua, the "head snake", he built a large set of yards and arranged for Wang Shouzhe and his party to move in.

There were seven or eight rooms in that courtyard, and the environment was elegant enough for everyone.

Wang Shouzhe and the others went into their own rooms to rest and rest, and he also took a bath first. After resting for more than half an hour, I went to visit Longyan Ancestor next door.

Standing at the door of the old ancestor's house, knocking on the door, he called in a low voice: "Old ancestor, Shouzhe asks to see." ”

After a while, the fourth aunt Xu Zhirou opened the door and said, "Shouzhe, the ancestor let you in." ”

"Fourth aunt, big girl. You are also tired all the way, go back to the room to rest first, I have something to say to the ancestor. Wang Shouzhe said after entering the door.

"Yes, Shouzhe. After Xu Zhirou bowed, she pulled Wang Lici, who had not yet understood the words, and left, and closed the door by the way.

After they left, Wang Shouzhe steadily walked up to Longyan Ancestor and bowed: "Shouzhe has seen Ancestor, disturb your Qing Xiu." ”

Longyan Old Ancestor's eyes swept over Wang Shouzhe, and said indifferently: "Shouzhe, you have a serious posture and a dignified expression. Could it be that you're here to persuade me not to sell my spiritual treasure?"

Wang Shouzhe couldn't help but smile bitterly, Longyan Ancestor was really the first to take the lead. However, in this regard, he had already weighed in his heart, and immediately said: "I looked through the intelligence information of Baidaowei before, and found that there was a famous black market on Jinsha Island, so I dared to guess the purpose of the ancestor's trip. It's just that Shouzhe has a slight doubt, whether the ancestor wants to sell the [Longyan Sword] or the [Turtle Scale Shield]. ”

Longyan Ancestor's eyes did not fluctuate and said, "The Turtle Scale Shield is useless to me. ”

Wang Shouzhe's body trembled, and his heart was bitter, it turned out to be the worst of his many guesses. The ancestor said that the turtle scale shield was useless, which meant that the Longyan Sword was still useful.

The shield defends and the spirit sword attacks, which is undoubtedly her giving up defense and choosing to attack.

"Shou Zhe dares to speculate on the ancestor's intentions, and if it is wrong, please ask the ancestor to correct it. Wang Shouzhe muttered, "The ancestor wants to sell the turtle scale shield and raise resources for Shouzhe to advance to the Lingtai realm. One day, after Shouzhe ascends to the Lingtai realm, the ancestor will take one of the Lingtai ancestors of the Zhao or Liu clans to win the future vitality for the family!"

In the end, Wang Shouzhe's voice trembled a little.

Longyan Ancestor was silent for a while, her ethereal eyes still did not fluctuate, and after a long time, she slowly shook her head: "Shouzhe guessed wrong. ”

Guessed wrong?

Wang Shouzhe was relieved in his heart, and he was overjoyed, but fortunately, Longyan Ancestor had some reason......

But he didn't want to, Longyan Ancestor said calmly: "If I wait until that day, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it anymore." ”

"Ancestor ......" Wang Shouzhe's face changed, and when he just wanted to speak, he was stopped by Longyan Ancestor and said, "Shouzhe, I know that you feel sorry for me, but I know my injuries, and I can't hold on......"

The pain between her eyebrows flashed away, and she returned to a calm state, and said in an ethereal voice: "What kind of character is I, Wang Longyan, rather than dying slowly while I can't kill it, it's better to take advantage of the strength and shine like fireworks." I will take the Zhao family and the Liu family with the two thieves, Shouzhe, you can rest assured. ”

Feel relieved?

I'm relieved!

Wang Shouzhe's heart trembled, and he really wanted to scold. Long Yan Ancestor's plan was too crazy to be stopped, he took a deep breath and said, "Old Ancestor, even if you succeed, the regular strength of the Zhao Clan and the Liu Clan is stronger than our Wang Clan!"

"There's the Liu clan. Longyan Ancestor said calmly.

Liu's ...... Yes, Wang Shouzhe remembered that Liu's daughter was her fiancée. So it was, so it was, when the ancestor of Longyan personally went to the Liu family to propose marriage and find a way to promote this marriage, he had already drawn up this plan. If the two get married, the Liu family will definitely not sit back and watch the remnants of the Liu family and the Zhao family fight back.

"That being the case. Wang Shouzhe said in a deep voice, "On my wedding night, it is the best time to do it." First, the Zhao and Liu clans would never have imagined that on my wedding night, the ancestor would suddenly make a move. Second, at that time, our Wang family guests gathered, and the Liu family and the Zhao family did not dare to fight back. ”

Longyan Old Ancestor's emaciated body shook slightly, and then slowly shook his head and said, "This plan is ominous to you, and your reputation is not good, don't mention it again." ”

Wang Shouzhe laughed: "Ancestors can sacrifice their lives for the family, Shouzhe is just a junior, why worry about it?"

"You are still young, and you are the family's greatest hope for the future. Longyan Ancestor said lightly, "After I die in battle, the Longyan Sword will be inherited to you." You must send my body to the Purple Mansion School Palace and hand it over to my teacher, Master Binglan, and say that I, Wang Longyan, have been willful for half a lifetime, and I have failed my teacher's kindness, and I hope that I can return to the door wall after death. ”

She asked Wang Shouzhe to accompany her to Baidaowei, so she didn't really plan to hide it from him, after all, he still needed to cooperate in this matter.

"I see. Wang Shouzhe solemnly arched his hand.

"You, don't persuade anymore?" Longyan Ancestor felt a little strange, according to her original idea, with Shouzhe's filial piety personality, she would inevitably persuade each other, and she was ready to use the identity of the ancestor to force her.

"If there are no other variables, Old Ancestor's plan is the only plan that can make the Wang family quickly turn around. Wang Shouzhe said calmly, "The ancestor's injury has obviously reached the stage where it is about to become uncontrollable, with your proud and unparalleled personality, how can you tolerate yourself lying on the bed and dying in agony? ”

"Yes, I, Wang Longyan, hate twisting and pinching the most in my life, mother-in-law. In Longyan Old Ancestor's calm eyes, a touch of heat flashed, "Shouzhe, you can understand, that is what I, Wang Longyan, am most pleased with." ”

"Ancestor, the premise I am talking about is that if there are no other variables, your plan is the best choice. Wang Shouzhe smiled with a relaxed expression, "I also have a plan, and the ultimate goal is - I, Wang Shouzhe, will ascend to the Lingtai Realm and become the pillar of the family court, and Longyan Ancestor, you will do your own thing, since your old man is ashamed of his master, he will go and apologize to his master." ”

"What?" Rao was shocked by the control of Long Yan Ancestor's state of mind, and his eyes showed disbelief.
