As soon as Cheng Chumo, who wanted to come back to report, entered the courtyard, he saw Li Hui holding a small black piece.

"Brother Li! Is this what you call cement? What's the use? Cheng Chumo looked puzzled.

After all, Li Hui spent a lot of money to buy those clay kilns that produced bricks and tiles.

And finally for such a black thing? Cheng Chumo was a little puzzled.

"Heh, don't look at it as a small piece." Li Hui smiled: "You can't do anything about it." ”

"How is that possible! I have so much effort, although it is not as good as Brother Li. ”

Cheng Chumo shook his head in disbelief and said, "But such a small piece of mud, I broke it with a slight pinch." ”

Li Hui didn't say much, and threw it directly to him.

"Brother Li, just take a look!" Cheng Chumo received it in his hand and pinched it with confidence!

The small black piece did not move at all, and Cheng Chumo coughed twice in embarrassment: "Accident, accident!" I haven't done it yet! ”

Then he took a deep breath, clasped his hands into fists, and squeezed them hard.

"Ah——!h Cheng Chumo's forehead was bruised, and he exerted his strength to eat.

"Shhh Cheng Chumo suddenly felt a pain, and hurriedly spread out his hand to take a look, it turned out that the skin was broken.

And the small black piece was still not damaged in the slightest, and Cheng Chumo was speechless for a moment, messy in the wind.

Chen Wu on the side saw it, and began to purse his lips and snicker.

When the cement dries, it's comparable to steel, but it's very hard.

A bunch of them, with hammers and pickaxes, knocked for a long time to get such a small piece.

How can it be easily crushed by hand?

"Brother Li! This cow! Cheng Chumo had to hold the cement block and said with a smile on his face.

Ay! It's a shame to brag and brag big!

Li Hui just smiled casually, thought for a moment and asked, "How long can this be done, you."

Have you tested it? ”

"If you try, you'll be able to do it in about three or four hours." Chen Wu replied immediately. Li Hui listened and thought for a moment, and then commanded.

"You should hurry up the production of this thing first, but don't sell it for the time being, I still have a use."

"Well, the recipe is also to be kept secret! No leaks! ”

When Chen Wu heard this, he hurriedly bowed down to show his loyalty, and said anxiously.

"Wait! This recipe is known only to a few of my leaders. ”

"I know what to do! It will never be leaked! ”

"Qin Gongzi is also still bringing people, where are you guarding!"

Li Hui nodded and waved his hand.

"Hmmm! This thing can benefit the country and the people, and you have made a lot of contributions! ”

"First of all, everyone will be rewarded with two months' wages! In time, there may be other rewards! You go back and hurry up the production. ”

Chen Wu hurriedly nodded his head in agreement, and then withdrew.

"Zhang Ping, how are the recruits going?" Li Hui turned his head and asked.

"There are a lot of people who have signed up! That's it, Zhang Ping glanced at Li Hui.

Only then did he continue: "Is the salary too high? ”

Unlike the middle and late Tang Dynasty, Tongbao's purchasing power in the early Tang Dynasty was still very strong.

Ordinary craftsmen only have more than three or four hundred wen a month, and five hundred wen is not bad.

But Li Hui actually came here, verified the technology, and directly gave it to the consistent January. It's too much to surpass at once!

Li Hui smiled: "You don't care about this, I have my own reasons." ”

It's not that Li Hui wants to be the big culprit, but that the construction that Li Hui wants to engage in requires a lot of work

Craftsman.

People don't do it with their familiar old clubs. Why

Everyone is also highly motivated.

"Zhang Ping! You have sent for the cement these days. ”

"Then I led the craftsmen to build these houses, and I chose the flat open space that I had planned a few days ago."

Now these villagers live in mud houses with some rice stalks stuffed inside.

Often, when encountering some disasters, water leaks or even collapses, which is very dangerous.

And with cement, you can build some beautiful cement brick houses.

Not only is it sturdy, but it is also the same style, and it is even more beautiful and generous to build a piece.

Zhang Ping took the drawing and saw that it was a small building of a strange style.

Although he didn't understand, he wouldn't raise any objections, and the county magistrate told me to do it.

"That! Brother Li! Seeing that everyone was gone, Cheng Chumo suddenly said, "Can you give me this cement block?" ”

"Huh?" Li Hui glanced at Cheng Chumo meaningfully, and roughly guessed what he wanted to do.

Well, since you've not been beaten enough, let it be.

"Take it." Li Hui said casually.

"Thank you, Brother Li!" Cheng Chu thanked him silently, and ran home happily to the evening, in the mansion of Lu Guogong.

Cheng Biting Jin took a big bite of food, and drank a cup of Qingkong Brew in a small sip after finishing the matter: "Ah! This wine is really good! ”

After staring at it again, Cheng Chumo, who was still eating, said loudly: "The war is coming soon, you kid is also ready!" Follow me into battle! ”

"Just go!" Cheng Chu said indifferently.

He smiled again and said, "Dad! Where did I get a good thing today in Brother Li! ”

"What's good? Flying Immortal Brew! Cheng Biting Jin's eyes lit up.

He has been hungry for this Flying Immortal brew for a long time, and he is reluctant to buy it.

Looking forward to that day, Li Hui sent him dozens of altars.

"It's not! It's a little mud block! Cheng Chumo replied.

"Little mud lumps? What's a good thing? Cheng Yanjin glared at Cheng Chumo: "You."

Kid's skin itching again? Dare to play dad? ”

"How dare you!" Cheng Chumo hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's a very hard little mud!" “

"But it's soft at first, and when it dries, it gets hard!"

"What hard and soft?" Cheng Yanjin still thought that Cheng Chumo was playing him, got up and began to touch the stick, scolding: "You are soft now, but Lao Tzu made you hard immediately." ”

"To you and to you! See for yourself! Cheng Chumo also hurriedly took it out and threw it over: "I've pinched it for half a year, and I can't break it!" ”

Cheng Yanjin was suspicious, hummed and took the small mud block, weighed it and said, "Then you are too wasteful!" The critical moment still depends on Lao Tzu! ”

After that, Cheng Yanjin pinched it with his thumb and index finger, and used it hard at will!

The little mud didn't react, and Cheng Biting Jin glared at Cheng Chumo, who was snickering: "It's still something." "

Then I hold it in my palm and push it harder.

After feeling that he still couldn't crush it, Cheng Yanjin held the fist with his other hand and worked hard with both hands.

After pinching it for a while, Cheng Biting's head began to sweat non-stop, but he still couldn't shake it.

"Whew! I don't believe it! Cheng Biting Jin angrily called out to his subordinates and took his precious axe.

Throwing mud in the air is an axe to chop it down.

"Smack"! The mud cracked in half.

"Haha! Hasn't it been split by me? Cheng Yanjin laughed a few times.

Suddenly, his eyes rolled, as if he remembered something, and rushed towards Cheng Chumo with an axe.

Cheng Chumo was so frightened that he screamed: "Dad! I was wrong! I don't dare anymore! ”

Don't you always use sticks on weekdays? This time, it's an axe!

Cheng Yanjin didn't care about this, and asked loudly: "You said that this thing was soft at first?" It's so hard after dry?! ”
