Could it be that after this kind of cement, Daming's house will be greatly changed? All Daming houses are more than two floors?

imagined this scene in her mind, the crown princess was a little unimaginable, and her mouth became an "O" shape and she didn't know it.

A two-story house is definitely better than a one-story one, especially in the south, where the air is humid and rheumatism is a common ailment if you sleep on the first floor.

Of course, if there are conditions, the ground must have been treated, for example, the ground has been dried, and then paved with flat stone slabs, etc., it will be better.

But for most people, there is certainly no such condition.

Now with this cement, at least here in Liujia Village, every family lives in a two-story building, which is definitely the only village in the Ming Dynasty!

After a while, the crown princess came back to her senses and asked Zhang Yifan in disbelief: "You say, if there is steel to replace bamboo and wood, this cement house can be built higher?" How high is that? Won't it fall? ”

She asked several questions in a row, staring at Zhang Yifan's face, full of surprise.

Not only that, but everyone else, including Zhu Jingjing, was also surprised.

They were surprised enough by this cement, but they didn't expect that the prospect that Zhang Yifan would describe here still shocked them again.

If you really want to say that, the cement is much more powerful than the Sanhe soil!

At this time, Zhang Yifan looked at the surprised princess, and just smiled and replied lightly: "If there is reinforced concrete to build, theoretically there is no problem how high you want to build, a hundred floors can be......"

"It can't be!" When the crown princess heard this, she subconsciously interrupted him.

In her mind, Zhang Yifan said that he could repair many floors high, so if he could repair three or four stories as high, it was already the limit, right?

As a result, I didn't expect that Zhang Yifan dared to say that a hundred layers were no problem, how could this be possible, what if they all went into the clouds and hit the Heavenly Palace?

Really, it was beyond her imagination!

This time, even Zhu Jingjing, who has always believed in Zhang Yifan, looked incredulous and did not interject and said, "I believe him".

It's impossible, isn't it a hundred stories high?

When Zhang Yifan saw them like this, he couldn't help but say silently in his heart: Don't say a hundred floors, I have been to more than a hundred floors!

Of course, he couldn't say this, so he answered the princess's question: "What I said is theoretical, and at present, it will definitely not be possible." There are many problems to be solved in how to build a higher-floor house with cement. However, it is certain that with reinforced concrete, it is definitely possible to build high-rise buildings. As for how high, you have to study the practice to know. ”

In ancient times, it was generally flat, and the reason was because there was no cement. No matter how powerful people are, they can't live in the upper echelons. The most fundamental reason is the lack of one type of thing: bending members, that is, beams and floor slabs.

Walls and pillars are easy to do, with stones, bricks, and even rammed earth. However, in ancient times, it was impossible to build bricks into suspended boards, let alone furniture and people living on them, so they could only be made of wood. And there is very little suitable wood, which is why there is an idiom of "the wood of the pillars".

This time, in order to rush the work, and because it was only two floors, Zhang Yifan used wood and bamboo, and of course, more importantly, there was no place to buy steel at this time.

At this time, Zhang Yifan continued to answer the princess's words: "If the sister-in-law is interested, you can pay for it, so that people can study it at the current level and see how high it can be cultivated?" You can rest assured that it will definitely not fall in the wind, and of course, if the earth dragon turns over, it will still fall. ”

The earth dragon rolls over, and everything will fall!

For this question, the crown princess directly skipped it.

At this time, she was very interested, and she definitely wanted to try this thing.

Climb high and look far away, hehe, maybe you don't have to climb the mountain in the future, you can see it in the house you live in. Just sit in the house, drink tea, and look at the vista......

After thinking about it, the crown princess thought it was beautiful, but of course she knew that the tallest building must be where her father lived. However, in the future, when the crown prince ascends the throne, she will be able to live!

But immediately, she thought of another question, so she no longer dwelled on this problem that needed time to test, and immediately asked: "What is the cost of this kind of cement?" ”

She had heard Zhang Yifan say before that this cement was very cheap. However, how cheap it was, she still didn't count.

Now that I heard Zhang Yifan say that the usefulness of this cement is far beyond her imagination, she can't believe how cheap it will be when the price of this cement is!

Zhang Yifan listened to her words, and didn't answer immediately, but just stretched out his hand and signaled: "Sister-in-law, why don't you go and see the cement workshop first?" ”

In the past, the crown princess was more sensitive to Zhang Yifan calling her sister-in-law, and she once said directly that it depends on whether Zhang Yifan has the ability to call her so.

And in this way, Zhang Yifan had already called her "sister-in-law" several times in a row, but she directly ignored it, or acquiesced, because she was shocked and couldn't take care of these details at all.

However, Zhu Jingjing on the side, in fact, is very sensitive to the word "sister-in-law", listening to Zhang Yifan's mouthful of "sister-in-law", her heart is sweeter than anything delicious. The attention was no longer focused on the cement, but peeked at Zhang Yifan's confident and calm introduction, it was so good-looking!

At this time, the crown princess listened to Zhang Yifan's words, didn't say a word, and immediately went to the cement kiln, where she knew.

However, all she had seen before was a construction site that had not yet started, and when she said goodbye, she saw that there was a large chimney smoking, and then it was surrounded by a large wall.

Inside the wall, in addition to the cement kiln, there were several other houses connected to this one, and I didn't know what it was doing inside, but I heard a noise.

The doorway was wide, but there were two villagers standing, apparently guarding the door, with sticks in their hands.

When the crown princess went in, there was naturally no problem. Accompanied by Zhang Yifan, he began to visit the inside.

At this time, it happened to be a wave of cement firing, all of which were hard lumps, sent into the workshop of the hydraulic forging hammer, a very large hammer, regular hammer after hammer, and then a huge stone mill, still powered by hydraulic power, the pounded cement lumps were thoroughly ground into powder, and finally loaded into bags.

One of the more striking things is that the people who work here are covered with a cloth over their faces, like masked people.
