The construction of this cement road is the most popular thing in Baotou during this period. The sensation caused by the cement factory has long passed. The workers usually go to work and get off work. There are more than a thousand people, and they look a lot. They are sprinkled in this area and are not very eye-catching. Everyone will be accustomed to it after paying attention for a while.

Cement is different from necessities in life. For most ordinary people, it is still unfamiliar and unaffordable. Most of the cement in the cement factory was used to build roads by Yang Yuanzhao, which reduced the thickness by half. The use of cement for one kilometer was reduced to about 500 kilograms. In this way, 50 kilometers was almost the production of the cement factory for more than ten days. A small part of the road construction was sold to the landlord's homes, and Qian Hu was brought to build roads, Baotou, and even nearby, and there were many masons. They did not know how to use cement, but cement was simple, so at most Qian Hu and others could just send someone to give advice. During this period, there were many buildings in Baotou, including two floors and three floors. They were almost carved from the same mold as Qian Hu's house, which looked like a different scenery.

From the cement factory to Baotou, the first section of the road paved has been removed, and the iron mold has not been taken off, so as to make it more durable and condense better. Close to Baotou, there is a construction team monitoring the already dry cement at any time. Someone will go up to try it. For this, the people from the construction team neither encourage or oppose it.

It took more than half a month to condense the cement. After four or five days, the cement could bear a certain weight. They had personal experience of this. They built a house for Qian Hu and cast-in-place roof. After a few days, they started to build the second floor again. They were very surprised at that time. Under Yang Yuanzhao's order, they barely went up and did not dare to step on their feet. They took it lightly. Later, when they arrived at the third floor, they became much bolder. Cement was used. As long as the first few days passed, they did not deliberately use heavy objects to knock it out and leave a few people. It would be fine.

After five days of paving the cement road, there were fewer surveillance personnel and it was not so tight. At the beginning, there were only some courageous children who ran to the cement road to play. The children always liked to join in the fun. The more they refused, the more itchy they felt. The children ran on it and shouted excitedly. Next, some curious people also came over to experience the flatness and sturdyness of the cement road. The knowledgeable old shopkeeper couldn't help but praise the flatness of the road. It was unheard of.

The cement road from Baotou to the cement factory has been completely penetrated. After more than 15 days of condensation, it can be fully accessible on a small scale. In order to boost morale and for the next purpose, Yang Yuanzhao invited guests to hold a grand pass.

On this day, all the shareholders of Baoken Company attended the event. Even Yang Yue put down the research and attended the scene. Yang Yuanzhao didn’t know much about Yang Yue’s research recently, so he asked a few questions about the progress. Sure enough, in the past few months, Yang Yue has not been idle. He mainly did the research on winter wheat. In terms of fertilization and irrigation, he did some experiments based on the knowledge learned in the school, especially the selection and cultivation of seeds and the use of chemical fertilizers, and has achieved good results. Conservatively estimated that wheat cultivation will definitely have a huge improvement compared to before.

Food issues are the top priority. In the future, if the food issues cannot be guaranteed, no matter how good the machines are and how many workers are, they will become a pile of loose sand. Yang Yuanzhao also briefly told Yang Yue that Habi has gone to the United States and that he will stay in the United States for a while, striving to invite some of Yang Yue’s classmates or other agronomists to come.

Classmate, Yang Yue's eyes were a little erratic, as if thinking about something, and then said quietly: "Most of my classmates are from farmers, and they go to study to inherit the family business. If possible, maybe these people are possible!"

After Yang Yue finished speaking, he wrote down a bunch of English names on a piece of paper, including the names of classmates, simple address, and other conditions. The agriculture in the United States has always been developed, and farmers are different from those of Chinese farmers. At least they are landlords or even big landlords. However, there are tens of thousands of acres, or even hundreds of thousands of acres in Yang Yue’s classmate’s home. Such people, let alone crossing the ocean, are unlikely to leave their hometown.

China in this era is unattractive. Perhaps for the sake of money, it is hard to say whether it can recruit one or two or not. Whether it can meet the standards of all-in-one machines. Maybe, you can find those two senior researchers in this piece of paper to complete the daily tasks on the all-in-one machine.

Wei Ming next to him didn't say a word. Looking at the highway in front of him, it was really built directly. The speed was so fast, only a dozen kilometers, and together, it would not exceed 100 miles. The construction speed was too fast. It took less than 30 days and was about to be fully connected. The most important thing is the quality. You don't need to look at it, you will know that it is definitely not ordinary.

This highway has become the most eye-catching in Baotou. Even some shopkeepers of the chamber of commerce come to see from time to time. They are flat and as solid as stones. The most important thing is a whole. A few days ago, it rained heavily. On ordinary roads, there is either water or depressions, but it is abnormally flat. When it rains heavily, there is some water accumulation on the road, but not much. When the rain stops, the drainage ditches on both sides quickly drain the water, and vehicles and pedestrians can walk normally. This is something I would never have imagined before.

There was a commotion in the crowd. At some point, Hou Jinsheng also came. Since the last time he saw Hou Jinsheng once, Yang Yuanzhao had hardly seen him. He seemed to be an otaku, with a simple and easy-to-understand and no sense of existence.

Liu Shu was responsible for the invitation, and almost sent all the gentry and celebrities in Baotou, including of course the famous Hou family. However, this invitation was just polite. All those who should come, and some of them did not come as usual. No one expected that Hou Jinsheng would come.

After chatting with a few familiar friends, Hou Jinsheng walked directly to Yang Yuanzhao and smiled and said, "Young Master Yang, I didn't expect that you produced cement so quickly and built such a road. It looks very good!"

"Mr. Hou praised me. I am far worse than Master Hou building bridges and roads!"

Yang Yuanzhao was not a compliment. After meeting Hou Jinsheng last time, he asked Liu Shu to help investigate. The Hou family was a typical gentry family. It should have been from the Qianlong period. At that time, it was only the landlord Hou family. He was a Jinshi. Although his official position was not high and he had reached the fifth rank, he directly brought the Hou family from an ordinary gentry to an official family. Then it lasted for a hundred years. The Hou family began to grow and spread, and officials from the fifth and sixth ranks emerged one after another. Even in Hou Jinsheng's grandfather's generation, he was appointed as the Shanxi governor. He was considered to have firmly held the position of a famous family in Shanxi. The Hou family in Baotou was just a branch of the Hou family. Hou Jinsheng himself was a juren, with a great family and a good reputation. Thirty-fourth of the bridges and roads built near Baotou were done by their Hou family.

I don’t know Hou Jinsheng’s purpose, and after a few simple compliments, the auspicious time has come. Yang Yuanzhao ordered the celebration to begin. The lion and dragon dance team started to move, and 100,000 firecrackers also rang out. After a lively trip, Yang Yuanzhao walked up to the front and said to everyone: “Thank you all for attending this through-through ceremony. Everyone sees the benefits of this cement road. In order to better show its purpose, let’s do some experiments!”

"Test!" Some people understand, some people don't understand, Yang Yuanzhao had already been ready, and with a wave of his hand, someone naturally stepped forward. These were two horse-drawn two-wheeled trucks, one was empty, and the other was heavy truck. They were loaded with two buckets of cement and were just shipped to Baotou. This was basically the limit of a two-wheeled carriage. It was not impossible to bear any heavy carriage.

Yang Yuanzhao's road construction was built on one side of the original road and did not occupy the original road. This is also a preparation for future expansion. At this time, the old road has not been processed, so this experiment is just in place.

The people present were either shareholders of Baoken Company, famous gentry in Baotou, or big shopkeepers in some shops. These people were extremely smart. When they looked at two carriages, they knew what experiments were going to be done.

Since Yang Yuanzhao was an experiment, of course he had to be fair. Several people even went to see the carriage to see if it was exactly the same, and there was cement. Some people also picked up the cement buckets, but they actually wanted to try whether these cement buckets were empty.

Fortunately, Yang Yuanzhao did not intend to fake it, and there was no need to fake it. The excellence of cement roads has been revealed in the accessibility of villages in later generations. In this era, there has not been a loading truck of hundreds of tons. Even if the carriage can be pulled, how many can it be pulled.

Several people got down embarrassedly and said a little embarrassedly: "There is no problem with the car!"

"Then run!"

With Yang Yuanzhao's order, the two masters who were familiar to Baotou began to ride their horses and whip. The empty car started a little faster. They were the first to rush out, and the heavy car was one step slower.

Yang Yuanzhao was not worried, and watched the carriage move forward with confidence. Sure enough, after stabilizing the speed, the heavy carriage, which started slowly, was getting faster and faster on the smooth and flat cement road, and the speed did not weaken at all. On the other hand, the road in Baotou, although not pure dirt roads, was relatively flat. The heavy rain a few days ago, had a certain impact on it. Some slightly bumpy places and some water holes definitely affected the speed. Thanks to the experienced master who drove, it had already fallen aside if it was an ordinary person.

However, even so, the speed of the carriage began to slow down. On the flat road, it could be a little faster, and the water puddles and mud were almost impossible to lift. Instead, another carriage driving on a concrete road was getting faster and faster, and after surpassing the empty carriage, it was far ahead.
