Chapter 306 Zhang Xianxian’s discovery

"Master Kang is here!"

"Don't worry, Master Kang, we will all use your newly made ruler."

"Master Kang..."

Wherever he passed, both people working and ordinary people greeted Wang Kang warmly.

Zhang Xianxian has been following Wang Kang clearly, and he is sure that this greeting is not just because Wang Kang is their lord.

But is it a kind of respect from the heart, or is it trust?

It gives people a feeling of harmony!

Zhang Xianxian couldn't think of any words to describe it, but this discovery made her feel unbelievable.

She has been to many places and met many nobles, including herself as a noble. It was the first time she met such nobles and such people...

The nobles are all aloof and condescending, how could they ever treat their subjects like this?

"Hey, the foundation you laid is not deep enough!"

"Pay attention over there, take a careful look at the construction drawings. Is it like this?"

"This is a triangular structure, don't you understand? Bring me the drawing and let me explain it to you. The triangular structure is stable. Look here..."

Following Wang Kang, we have arrived at the construction site. What Wang Kang said before is right. It is indeed a mess here. There are sand, gravel, bricks and mud everywhere...

The weather is hot and muggy, and people sweat easily.

When there is a slight breeze, dust will be raised, which will blow on clothes and float on the face.

This is Zhang Xianxian's first time in such an environment.

She is the daughter of Marquis Xuan Ping, a rich young lady, well-dressed and well-fed, and her hands are clean of spring water.

Such an environment was unbearable for her, and the uneven ground along the way made her feet ache.

But at this moment, Zhang Xianxian couldn't care about this.

She was completely attracted to Wang Kang, or to be precise, it was Wang Kang's behavior.

Everywhere we go, some are digging trenches and preparing to lay foundations, while others are laying foundations...

Zhang Xianxian has never built a house, but she clearly understands how to build a foundation. This foundation is different from what she knows.

The bottom was fixed with a gray mud-like substance that she had never seen before, instead of the commonly used sand...

There are also slender iron-like metal poles stuck on the ground.

She had never seen them before, and some of them she had never heard of. By listening to other people's conversations, she learned that the kind made by mixing water is called cement.

It is more viscous than sand, and the walls built with it are stronger and more stable, and the slender metal objects are called steel bars...

Occasionally she heard someone say that this thing called steel is a material harder than iron.

How can this be?

And what makes Zhang Xianxian unbelievable the most is Wang Kang. He seems to know everything. He understands every step of building a house here and even explains it to the construction workers.

Are those people asking him for advice?

How can this be?

"Our house is completely different from the ones you built before. You must build it according to the drawings. If you have anything you don't understand, ask the foreman!"

"Or just ask me."

Wang Kang was explaining to the workers, because what he wanted to build was the small two-story structure of the previous life. This kind of structure was very common in the previous life.

But this is the first time here, so the craftsmen don’t know much about it.

This is also the purpose of his daily inspections, because some places require his personal guidance.

Wang Kang entered the state and was talking to himself. Naturally, he had no time to pay attention to Zhang Xianxian.

Zhang Xianxian was even more confused when she heard this, because she had never heard of such a house.

"Master Kang, Master Kang..."

At this time, a man ran over. His clothes were obviously better than those of the workers, and he looked like a supervisor.

There was also a piece of paper in his hand.

"Master Kang, I don't understand much here. Please explain it to me." This man came to Wang Kang's side.

Wang Kang frowned and said: "Foreman Lin, didn't I give you training? As a foreman, you can't even read pictures, so how can you let the people below work?"

"that……"

Engineer Lin scratched his head, "I was in Yangzhou City before and built houses for big landowners in the city, but this is the first time I've seen this drawing..."

"What don't you understand?" Wang Kang didn't say anything more, but asked.

"Here..." Engineer Lin spread out the drawings in his hand and pointed to one of them.

"This is a pillar,"

As he spoke, Wang Kang took Engineer Lin to the actual place, pointed to a few steel bars and said, "Look here, these steel bars are used as supports, and then they are sealed and made into a rectangular pillar, which goes straight to the top."

"Then use it as a support to make a spiral staircase leading to the second floor. Do you understand?"

"I understand, I understand!" Engineer Lin nodded hurriedly and said, "This is the reinforced concrete you built. It's really a great design."

"One stone pillar supports the entire staircase, it's so exquisite!"

Engineer Lin couldn't help but admire, "I have led people to do a lot of work. The most complicated one was building a mansion for a fifth-grade official, but it was not as good as your design..."

"Did you design this?"

Zhang Xianxian, who had been listening, was suddenly startled. To be honest, she had been listening just now and was puzzled.

What kind of house is it that is so complicated? She can't understand it at all when talking about it.

And the foreman was so impressed.

Aren't they just ordinary houses? Does Wang Kang still want to build mansions for his citizens?

Thinking about it, Zhang Xianxian snatched the blueprint from Foreman Lin's hand.

"This girl, you..." Foreman Lin turned around and saw such a beautiful girl. He was slightly startled, and then wanted to follow Master Kang.

Maybe it's Master Kang's woman.

Thinking about it, he didn't speak.

At this time, Zhang Xianxian had already picked up the drawing and looked at it. The first thing she felt was that it was beautiful.

Really beautiful.

The lines were simple and straight, and she had never known any brush that could draw such lines.

Naturally, she would not have thought that this was drawn with a charcoal pencil made by Wang Kang.

Zhang Xianxian was attracted at the first sight. There was no doubt that this was a house structure that she had never seen before.

It seemed very complicated at first, but Zhang Xianxian was smart and she figured it out quickly.

This is a two-story building, and the entire drawing is marked in detail, including how deep the foundation is, how high and how wide it is...even the materials used and how much are explained.

This... is really a perfect construction drawing.

Zhang Xianxian closed her eyes. She was imagining what this house would look like when it was built.

Spiral staircase, three bedrooms and one living room, bedrooms, kitchen, which should be specially used for cooking, and bathroom, which is used for bathing...

Is there a balcony?

What is this?

Zhang Xianxian imagined that although she didn't quite understand some parts, she knew that this kind of house had never existed before.

And it seems really good…

She liked to hunt for novelties, so she instinctively developed a strong sense of expectation.
