Chapter 379 When they finished this time, Ji Song asked them to stop and said: "Number the first time as A, the second time as B, and the third time as C."
"Now you use these three types of cement to start building the wall. After the wall is built, sprinkle an appropriate amount of water and wait until tomorrow to see!"
After saying that, he left, leaving the rest to wait until tomorrow!
Ji Song can confidently build this city because it comes from cement. High-quality cement cannot be made by himself, but he is still confident about ordinary local cement.
As long as cement is produced, both construction costs and construction speed will be greatly improved.
The site of the academy is located on the slope at the foot of Taibai Mountain. Not only does it overlook the Guanzhong Plain, but it is also far away from the mountainous area and will not be subject to any disasters in the future.
Ji Song knew that the academy could not be built in a short period of time, so he could only divide the construction period into several stages, and did not even mention the subsequent major projects, just for fear of scaring some people away.
When the academy is on the right track, it will have its own hematopoietic ability. In this way, it will not be controlled by others. Ji Song cannot even imagine what it will develop into in the future.
Early the next morning, Ji Song and Lao Qian came to the cement workshop again.
When Ji Song walked into the testing site at the back, he saw three low walls appearing in front of him.
From the outside, there was no difference, so he walked up and asked, "Have you ever moved?"
The craftsmen all shook their heads. How dare they move? This was the order of the Marquis Ji Song, and Manager Qian even told them not to move.
Seeing them shaking their heads, Ji Song nodded to Da Niu behind him, and Da Niu found a hammer.
He first came to the No. A low wall, which was made of cement fired according to the previous method. With one hammer blow, the No. A low wall disintegrated instantly, like tofu dregs.
Ji Song didn't have any surprises. He stepped forward to take a look and found that the cement was basically not solidified and was very uneven.
Signaled to Daniel to continue.
When they came to the low wall No. B, Daniel hit it with a hammer. The low wall just shook, and the blue bricks on the upper floor fell off.
But just like that, everyone looked sideways for a while, and some even cheered.
Ji Song stepped forward to check again and found that the cement had solidified quite well this time, and the uniformity was much better than that of No. A cement.
Finally, Daniel came to the low wall No. C.
"boom!"
There was a loud noise, and what surprised Daniel was that the force of the shock was so great that even he was staggered by the force of the shock! Seeing this, Ji Song finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew it was a success this time without even stepping forward to check.
But he still didn't dare to be careless and said to Lao Qian: "You ask people to continue firing No. C cement, record all the processes, and fire ten furnaces first to see if it is stable."
Lao Qian was already excited and even climbed up the low wall to inspect it carefully.
After hearing the instructions from his Lord Marquis, he quickly climbed down and said excitedly: "Don't worry, Lord Marquis, it's my responsibility to test out the best cement as soon as possible."
Ji Song nodded and said nothing more.
Then Ji Song returned to Chang'an, spending time with his mother when he had nothing to do, or spending time with You Ning, working hard for the next generation of the family.
When the clouds and rain began to subside, You Ning lazily hugged Ji Song and said aggrievedly: "Husband, we have been married for several months, why is there still no news!"
You Ning didn't feel this at first, but he has been in contact with the ladies of the Xungui family for a long time and has been affected a lot by them, especially the issue of heirs.
These people have instilled a lot of their own thoughts into You Ning. Why is the mother more valuable than the son? With such a big business, if there are no heirs, sooner or later it will be easier for , since Ji Song came back, he has been pestered by You Ning every night. He has tried all kinds of positions, but there is no movement in his stomach.
In addition, every time Ji's mother saw You Ning, she would patrol her belly, as if she wanted to see something, but she would sigh in disappointment every time.
Ji Song caressed her smooth back. Even he couldn't bear it these days. No wonder they said that men suffer in this aspect. Even his own body couldn't bear it.
"Don't listen to those people's nonsense. We only have a short time, why are we in a hurry? This matter cannot be rushed. We should have less contact with those people in the future."
He pinched her cheek and said with a smile: "What have you done to my good daughter-in-law? Do you want to die from exhaustion as a husband?"
You Ning was so embarrassed that he slapped Ji Song angrily, and finally they hit each other again.
When I woke up in the morning, I looked at the radiant You Ning, and then I felt the soreness in my waist, and thought to myself: This can't be done anymore, if it continues like this, sooner or later it will be useless.
After reporting some personnel from Sinong Temple to the emperor last time, Ji Song received a reply soon.
Liu Zhan was sent to Dengzhou as governor, while Yao Chang was dedicated to preparing for the construction of Dengzhou Port.
This time the two became partners again, but they were promoted.
With Ji Song behind them, no one dares to take credit for their achievements. As long as they make political achievements, they will be transferred to Chang'an sooner or later.
Except for himself, the young minister, who is still famous, all the other principals in Sinong Temple have basically been transferred.
To Ji Song's surprise, Ma Zhou, who was expelled from Sinong Temple, actually came back from the grassland.
This time he directly became the chief official of Sinong Temple. When Ji Song refused to take charge of the affairs, he, the chief official, was the chief official of Sinong Temple.
The first thing Ma Zhou did after taking office was not to carry out drastic reforms, but to personally come to the Haojihou Mansion.
He knew very well that although Ji Song was indifferent, he was still the highest official of Sinong Temple in name. If he still wanted to get involved in the officialdom, he had to follow the rules.
Sinong Temple was founded by Ji Song, and he knew what was going on here better than anyone else. If he didn't come to see him or get authorization, he would make changes to Sinong Temple immediately.
Even if he had the emperor's backing, he would still be labeled as arrogant.
This is the first time Ma Zhou has come to the Haorenhou Mansion. There are widespread rumors in Chang'an about the wealth of Haorenhou Jisong, but when he actually came to the mansion, he found that it was no different from ordinary people.
If I must say it, it gives people a relaxed feeling.
In the Hou Mansion, both the housekeeper and the servants and maids all perform their duties. There is no oppressive atmosphere like those in the homes of wealthy families, and it seems very relaxed.
The butler Zheng Li is also very talkative. He basically talks about what is asked and laughs off the things he cannot say.
Ji Song met Ma Zhou in the lobby of the front yard, which was originally a place to receive foreign guests. He and Ma Zhou only met once, and had no friendship. They just followed the rules.
"My subordinates have met the Marquis. Before, the Marquis got married, and Xiaguan was in the grassland. He didn't say congratulations. This is a little bit of Xianguan's kindness. Please don't dislike it."
With that said, he handed the basket in question to Zheng Li.
Zheng Li was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted, took the basket, and put it on the table.
Ji Song was very curious. He knew Ma Zhou's situation very well. What could he give him? Regardless of being rude, when he opened the basket, he was obviously startled when he saw the things inside, and sighed: "You are thoughtful!"
