Jiang Zhen led people to set up defenses outside and capture the fleeing Japanese robbers.

Xu Miaojin has been staring at Chang Mao.

Of course, the people of Jinyiwei did not relax.

The little girl shook her head and said, "Since Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai were executed, Chang Mao has been closed at home. ”

"The people of Jinyiwei have been staring around Changfu and have not found anything."

"I don't feel at ease, and I spent money to buy off a group of beggars, staring at everyone who comes in and out of Changfu, but I still get nothing."

Zhu Yunxi frowned slightly.

It stands to reason that this should not be the case.

Qi Tai was killed, although he did not simply confess that he colluded with the Japanese and did not explicitly implicate Qi Tai, but he should be very worried about whether Qi Tai confessed himself.

He couldn't stand still all the time.

Xu Miaojin said: "I have a suggestion to remove all the Jinyi guards who are staring at Changfu." ”

"With them, Chang Mao won't do anything."

"I'll be responsible for keeping an eye on Chang Mao's affairs and guarantee that nothing will go wrong."

Zhu Yunxi looked up at her and asked solemnly, "Are you sure?" ”

The little girl smiled and said, "Yes." I'm good at staring at people. ”

"Good!"

Zhu Yunxi immediately agreed.

Xu Miaojin is still very reliable.

Basically, nothing can go wrong.

"I'm here today, and there's one more thing." Xu Miaojin did not leave, but continued: "The cement you asked the craftsmen to develop has been produced. ”

"Really?" Zhu Yunxi was overjoyed.

"Hmm!" Xu Miaojin nodded and said with a smile: "I brought it, you can come and take a look." ”

Zhu Yunxi immediately followed him out.

Yao Guangxiao was very curious.

He left early that day and did not see Zhu Yunxi's proposal for craftsmen to develop cement.

The name cement, he heard it for the first time.

So, he followed closely behind and followed.

"It was made of cement, sand, stone, poured."

Xu Miaojin pointed to a piece of road and said.

Yao Guangxiao walked over and looked at it carefully.

The discovery is very similar to the rock, but somewhat different.

And, it's a whole.

Xu Miaojin asked people to take the hammer and hit it hard, banging, but there was no sign of cracking.

Yao Guangxiao's pupils suddenly dilated.

He professed to be well-informed, but he had never seen such a thing in his life.

"How is this made?"

"The cement invented by His Royal Highness Taisun." Xu Miaojin glanced at Zhu Yunxi again, full of admiration.

She brought a bag of cement and said, "This is what it mixes with sand and pebbles, and when it dries, it forms such a hardened ground." ”

Yao Guangxiao reached out and grabbed a handful of cement, which was as fine as dust, and he couldn't see anything wonderful.

I couldn't have imagined that this thing could be so magical.

The point is, this kind of thing, he has never seen before.

Invented by His Royal Highness the Grand Sun?

Void creation?

He turned his head to look at Zhu Yunxi, his pupils were full of horror.

"Okay, okay, I didn't expect to make it so soon."

Zhu Yunxi looked at the concrete pouring ground, and then looked at the cement, and was also overjoyed.

After all, he didn't know the specific recipe and method, and he just knew a general direction.

If he is allowed to study it himself, Zhu Yunxi estimates that it will be impossible to study cement without three and five years.

I didn't expect that those craftsmen would be able to pound out the cement in such a short time.

Really.

There are geniuses everywhere in the world.

But it feels normal when you think about it.

There is a sequence of hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry.

The craftsmen have been doing this for a long time, and they have a lot of hands-on experience.

Secondly, he confessed as a grandson and gave sufficient funds, so the craftsmen naturally did a lot of experiments.

There is strength in numbers.

We used different methods to do various experiments.

It is not surprising that it was developed very quickly.

"When pouring cement into concrete, be sure to pay attention to the ratio of sand to stone."

"This affects the performance of the concrete."

"Let them experiment a few more times and finalize it."

Zhu Yunxi did not say what the specific proportion was.

Although he is well aware.

But Zhu Yunxi has also seen that the cement particles made by craftsmen are still a little different from the cement produced industrially in later generations.

There is no way, the industrial level is limited.

This cannot be forced, you can only wait for time to accumulate and slowly improve.

The cement is different, the proportion of sand and gravel, of course he doesn't dare to talk nonsense.

"Well, the craftsmen are already experimenting, and this concrete is the best that has come out of it."

Xu Miaojin said with a smile: "I know what you mean, that is, to keep experimenting and trying to use various methods. ”

In fact, it can also be theoretically guided.

Zhu Yunxi added a sentence in his speech.

Didn't say.

His theoretical knowledge was limited.

Moreover, science at this stage does not need to be too complex and difficult to theoretical.

He is also ready to push forward in this regard.

Yao Guangxiao was stunned next to him, and he realized more and more that he still didn't understand Taisun.

can write poems, can fight, know how to calculate the court and temple, and can balance the forces of the civil and military parties, and that's it.

But guns, cannons, mimeographers, cement, how did he come up with these things?

Yao Guangxiao suddenly felt so stupid.

Really stupid!

Something like cement, he couldn't think of it even if he wanted to break his head.

But Zhu Yunxi looked extremely calm, as if he had invented cement, for him, it was insignificant and not worth mentioning at all.

At this moment, Yao Guangxiao suddenly became a little suspicious.

The other party can't really be the reincarnation of the True Martial Emperor, right?

Otherwise, it would be inexplicable.

He glanced at Zhu Yunxi, his eyes were mixed.

"Concrete was poured with cement, and all the places in the city where there were dirt roads were paved with cement."

Zhu Yunxi decided immediately.

"Also, lay a cement avenue from Jinling City to Modu New Town."

No doubt.

Modu New City will become the economic center of Daming in the future.

If you want to build a road, the first choice is to go straight from Jingshi to the Demon Capital.

Daming's current steel production is far from enough.

Without enough steel, cement can be used to build houses, but it is obviously not the optimal solution.

He thought of two uses for the time being.

One is to build levees for flood control.

The addition of cement can improve the quality of the embankment by a notch.

On the other hand, it's about paving roads.

Transportation is fundamental to the business development of a country.

However, the cost of the cobblestone road is too high.

Even in Jinling City, there are many places that are not stone roads.

What's more, there are many problems with the stone road.

At least the flatness is not very high.

Zhu Yunxi had a deep understanding of this when he was in the carriage.

It's too bumpy.

He thought for a while, and then said: "In addition, pave a flat avenue with cement from Jinling to Yangshan." ”

Lao Zhu is still there, and he is still the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

It is very important to have his support in everything.

Anyway, the road to Yangshan can also be connected to other places in the future.

It's not a waste.

Now paved, in the future, Lao Zhu will return to Jinling Palace from Yangshan, or go out of the city again, there will be no need to be too bumpy.

For an elderly person, this is important.

Let Lao Zhu experience the benefits of the cement road, and he will fully support it.

"Hmm!" Xu Miaojin nodded, but there was a strange look on her face.

After hesitating for a while, she said: "There is no problem in paving the road, but the Technical Research and Manufacturing Bureau has no money." ”
