Chapter 162: Burning Bricks (Second Shift)
"I'll help you get the little maza." Chen Zhongyuan bent down and picked up Mazha and took the lead out of the dining room.
"Just find a shade outside." Hong Lianshuo's bright black eyes looked at his back and said.
"Hey!" Chen Zhongyuan glanced back at them and nodded, "Then you have to stay away from the dining room, it's too hot." β
In the shade of a tree far away from the dining room, Hong Lianshuo and they sat down, "What does Master Cao want to ask?" β
"Lord Cao doesn't dare to be." Cao Huaimin waved his hand and said, "Title!" You might as well call me Lao Cao. β
"Okay, if you don't feel old, then I'll call you Cao Lao." Hong Lianshuo's beautiful glass-colored eyes looked at him and said.
Cao Lao Ke is much more respectful than Lao Cao.
"It's better to call me Cao Lao." Cao Huaimin looked at her with dark eyes and said with a smile.
"Just say anything directly, don't be so polite." Hong Lianshuo's bright eyes looked at Cao Huaimin and said.
"Then I'll be blunt, I heard from the tiger that you want to build a road." Cao Huaimin looked at her with burning eyes and said.
"Yes! The road under the rain was muddy, and we rode our horses as if we were rolling in the mud. Hong Lianshuo looked at him frankly and said, "Anyway, now that autumn is planted, in addition to weeding in the field, the rest is the chores to be taken care of." If you want to fertilize, there is no fertilizer to apply. He looked at him with cold eyes and said, "This person can't be idle, it's easy to have an accident if he is idle, so build the road first." β
Cao Huaimin heard a hint of a smile on his lips, this Hong Lady spoke really bluntly, "I propose to use the pebbles on the river beach." β
"I talked to my sisters, and that's what they said." Hong Lianshuo's clear eyes looked at them and said frankly.
"They?" Cao Huaimin said with some surprise.
"The big families in this city are paving the roads with cobblestones!" Hong Lianshuo's bright eyes looked at them and said, "But in some places, the road is flooded, and you have to get some earthwork pads to come up, and you have to tamp it down." β
Cao Huaimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, "I think so too, it's just that it's not bad soil, how can I transport it?" "I was embarrassed.
"What's so hard about that? Isn't there a board car? Chen Zhongyuan said with a big grin.
"The ground is not flat, so you can easily enter it." Cao Huaimin kindly reminded him.
"It's really not going to work, smooth a way out!" Hong Lianshuo said lightly, "If the road is far, make some baskets of rattan, and we can carry the soil." β
There is no way to do without machinery, civil engineering can only rely purely on manpower, great human beings.
"Speaking of this soil, have you ever thought about calcining this adobe after it is made?" Hong Lianshuo looked at Cao Huaimin with sparkling eyes and said.
"Nope." Cao Huaimin shook his head slightly and said, "I really haven't thought about it." β
"Calcination, like porcelain, build a kiln, and put the prepared adobe in it." Hong Lianshuo's dark eyes looked at Cao Huaimin and said.
"I haven't tried this." Cao Huaimin scratched his head lightly when he heard this.
"Then try it, and see what comes out of the calcination? Whether it is stronger than adobe. Hong Lianshuo looked at them with starry eyes and said, "If it's stronger than adobe, let's use it to build a house and pave the ground." β
"Paving?" Cao Huaimin shook his head slightly when he heard this, "No, no." β
"Why not?" Chen Zhongyuan said unconvinced.
"Do you know how troublesome it is to make this adobe, which is piled up with force and paved on the ground after calcination, are you willing to do it?" Cao Huaimin looked at the naΓ―ve them angrily and said, "If you pave the road, how much does it take?" Have you counted? β
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I'm talking about laying the floor in the room." Hong Lianshuo looked at Cao Huaimin, who was objecting with a black face, and said, "The ground in this cobblestone paved house is awkward, and I think that if the adobe is paved with square bricks, it will be easy to walk." β
Hearing this, Cao Huaimin looked at them with a gentle expression and said, "I'm sorry, my tone is a little rushed." β
"I know that Cao Lao's intentions are kind." Hong Lianshuo's warm eyes looked at him and smiled.
"If it's as a floor tile as Hong Niangzi said, it's okay." Cao Huaimin nodded when he heard this, "Of course, this is built after the adobe is fired, and it can be used." β
Hong Lianshuo looked at him and said with a smile, "What Elder Cao said is right. β
"Then how to build this kiln, we haven't built it." Lin Nanzheng said worriedly.
"There is a kiln head for firing porcelain." Cao Huaimin looked at them with a smile on his face when he heard this.
"And there are a lot of people who make this adobe." Han Baohu said worriedly again.
"Who wouldn't! The farmer builds his own house, and who doesn't drop the adobe twice! Mo Sanya said with a smile.
"No, no, this adobe has to be made rigorously, and it must not be sloppy." Cao Huaimin said with a straight face when he heard this.
"Uh......" Mo Sanya's mouth opened and closed when she was refuted, and she didn't know what to say?
Hong Lianshuo smiled when he heard this, "What Sanya means is that everyone has some foundation, and they don't know anything about the production of adobe. Bright eyes looked at Cao Huaimin and said, "Cao Lao will guide the training, and you can make adobe according to the size you said." β
"That's what I meant." Cao Huaimin nodded hurriedly when he heard this.
Not really! Everyone muttered in their hearts.
"Can this burned adobe only be paved?" Jiang Shuisheng said with some pity.
Hong Lianshuo shook his head and said with a smile when he heard this, "The adobe was originally used to build a house, and the effect after firing is stronger than the adobe, so it is natural to build a house and build the city wall." β
"I don't know if I can burn the porcelain." Chen Zhongyuan said with some confusion.
"Impossible!" Hong Lianshuo shook his head again and again when he heard this, "The soil used to fire porcelain is not just random soil. He smiled and said, "The soil used in your adobe is ordinary loess."
"Ahh Chen Zhongyuan looked at her with great regret.
"Then let's build the road first, the road is convenient, and it is convenient to do anything." Cao Huaimin, who was in a hurry, stood up and said.
"Don't, don't, sit down first." Hong Lianshuo waved his hand downward, "Wait for me to draw the picture." β
"Drawing?" Cao Huaimin looked at her suspiciously and said.
"The road in this place is flooded, we have to find out!" Hong Lianshuo's jade-like eyes looked at him warmly and said, "It happened to rain this time." β
"You've got it all." Lin Nanzheng looked at her in surprise and said.
"Uh-huh!" Hong Lianshuo nodded with a smile when he heard this.
"Okay! So there is an idea that that section of the road should be raised. Cao Huaimin nodded hurriedly and said, "Then I'll build this tiger camp out of a convenient and easy-to-walk road." As he spoke, he had to stand up again.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, don't worry." Hong Lianshuo pressed his hands down, looked at him with dark eyes, and said.
