Chapter 126: Success

A few people were talking in the woods, and the kiln owner had someone outside take out a little stone and several kinds of clay and send them over. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Get another small stone grinder. Hou Ruifeng commanded.

The stone has been burned white, and the earth has solidified into a ball, but it is not like a brick, and it can be crushed with force, but if you want to deal with the flat burden in front of you, you need special tools.

There were ready-made tools in this place, after all, in order to experiment with the secret recipe of porcelain firing, they needed to crush something and put it in.

Soon.

With a few men working hard, the crunchy stones and clay lumps turned into powder, not as fine particles as in modern times, of course, but like coarse flour, and there were some small stones in it, but this did not delay the experiment.

Hou Ruifeng asked the kiln owner and his men to go to the side first, and then according to the ratio of the mixture, poured water and waited for solidification, and experimented with a bunch of each clay.

"That's it, isn't that hard? King Qi looked at the powder and clay in surprise.

"That's because I know the recipe, otherwise you'll never be able to figure it out in another 1,000 years. Hou Ruifeng said.

"Hehe, Shangxian is merciful. King Qi glanced left and right twice, after Hou Ruifeng came over, not to mention anything else, their quality of life has improved a lot, and they will be able to grow fresh food immediately, and they can also get some strange things from time to time, and they also said that they will be given a flat plate to see their performance, which makes the two very excited, and praise them from time to time.

"If you want to pave the road, you'll have to build a few big caves and stone quarries, and clay can be found there. The prince took a twig and stirred the cement twice.

"Well, that's up to you, but it's a bit slow to solidify. Hou Ruifeng had a bad premonition.

I don't know if it's because they poured too much water or what, the cement doesn't look like it's solidified at all, and it's a mark when you touch it.

"The cement in Shangxian dries quickly, and our mud house doesn't dry quickly. Hearing this, the prince asked curiously.

"There are many kinds of them, some of them dry very quickly, and the water can solidify as soon as you pour it down and take a few breaths, but the general ones are not fast, and you have to leave it for a while to solidify. Hou Ruifeng said.

"A few breaths can solidify? Isn't that a house that you can live in directly? King Qi said with envy.

The side did not speak, but Xiahou Bo, who did the most work, was shocked, but what he thought of was to quickly build fortifications, and build fortresses on the border or in some places, wouldn't it be possible to succeed in one night? In this case, the barbarians would be miserable, because they were not good at attacking cities, and there was no way to take the fortifications, but unfortunately the prince and the king of Qi did not think of this, and they were talking about what style of houses and roads to build.

So he won't ask, just keep this matter in mind and have a chance to experiment in the future.

"That's not good, the smell of cement is a bit problematic, and it has to be left for a while before you can move in, just like you are painted, and you can't use it on the same day. When the road surface is solidified, people can move around, as long as the big cars are restricted. Hou Ruifeng said.

Don't look at the cars here are all made of wood, even the carriage of the prince and King Qi is only some of the parts of the i use of bronze, but the load is not a lot at all, hundreds of catties are very common, thousands of catties have seen twice, this is not Hou Ruifeng's estimate, but at that time in the city after seeing it was very surprised, let the monkey specifically measure, knowing that the upper limit of those wheels has not yet reached, it is estimated that it can be put on another two hundred catties, but the horses pulling the cart can't stand the heat and have been barking.

Therefore, Hou Ruifeng still admires the methods of the ancients, but when the time comes, maybe the weight will be limited, who knows if the cement can withstand it, and he has to experiment to see it.

"Hmm. The prince nodded.

Time passed slowly in the conversation of several people, and soon it was noon, and the cement was slowly solidified in the anxious waiting of several people, so that Hou Ruifeng was finally relieved.

Bang bang bang.

Before eating, Hou Ruifeng picked up a few pieces and threw them to see the performance of cement.

The cement performed fairly well on the ground and did not fall apart, but it didn't work when it encountered stones, and it easily became crumbled.

Then the big monkey shook, Hou Ruifeng picked up the headphones and listened to it before he suddenly realized and instructed the kiln owner who came over again: "Find a few people to stir the cement more, and then stop after two pillars of incense." ”

He forgot that the cement should be stirred a little more, and he just stirred it twice and put it away, and he didn't add the stones yet, but the stones needed to wait and see.

"No. "The kiln master commanded.

When they waited for a few people to return in the evening, they were very satisfied, the experiment of cement was very successful, and the firing of several kinds of clay was almost the same, all of them could be used, of course, the best of them were recorded and specially provided for the royal use.

And the cave was temporarily taken over by the guards, who had to continuously fire cement, and there were special personnel to manage it, to find a suitable kiln factory for a large number of calcination.

"So you can clear the road now, and you can repair the road in a while?" Cao Fu asked. He still remembered that Hou Ruifeng had complained that the road was very bad.

"Pretty much the same, the newspaper can be started directly, and the next time I come over to see the situation, I can start to publicize it. Hou Ruifeng nodded.

It's already night, originally he was going to Huangzhuang to see the grain and vegetable situation, and then go to the mountains again, but the cement was fired successfully, so he couldn't wait to do a big job, so he had to go back to find the information on road repair, and then come over, and to talk about modern things, otherwise it would be a little bad to be here for a long time.

"Okay, Lone understands. Cao Fu nodded, this is all trivial, after deciding not to go to war this year, he has a lot of money and manpower to use, and it is trivial to build a road of more than 100 miles.

Newspapers are even less of a problem, and there is no problem in opening them all over the country.

After dinner, Hou Ruifeng explained the formula and ideas of the cement, as well as the printing situation, and went back.

The next day.

In the provincial city next door, in the house he just bought, Hou Ruifeng checked the house, he didn't decorate it on a large scale, just tidy up the ground and walls, and basically get it right.

And now it's enough to hide something.

Hou Ruifeng replaced very strong and complicated doors, and also installed alarms, except for leaving a place for the big monkey to enter and exit, everything was safe, so he threw some sundries, gems, cars and the like into the house before driving back to the factory.
