If people in later generations scolded men for being unpromising, they would often say that this man only knew "a warm kang with his wife and children", and Gao Bonian wanted to create a "hot kang" for the people of Yuncheng at this moment.

The kang is not difficult. In fact, the structure is simple. The simplest thing is to use soil or other materials to surround a piece of bed size in the room, make a line of "未" and cover it with the kang surface. The gaps are sealed with mud everywhere, as long as there is no smoke leak.

The size is adjusted as needed and made according to your own situation. Generally, soil is used as materials, and later cement is used.

In the middle, the empty space in the "得" grid is stuffed with firewood and lit it to keep warm, plug it into the kang hole to prevent the rapid loss of heat, and you will basically not be frozen overnight. It is so comfortable to lie on it in the middle of winter.

Of course, you should consider how much firewood is stuffed by yourself. If you don’t have it, it will be cold in advance and too much... Haha, don’t want to sleep anymore, otherwise you will be said to be unable to sleep, and even the bedding on your kang can burn you. This kind of thing happens too much.

Such a simple solution to the heating problem of the people in the county for the winter, which made Gao Bonian overjoyed.

Many people in Tokyo may also consider the issue of firewood, but small places, especially rural areas, do not need to be considered at all. The mountains and fields are full of weeds, and they can be burned after being cut a little. Sweep the dried fallen leaves is enough. In short, fuel is not a problem, and there is no need to spend money, so it is absolutely not difficult to implement.

In fact, this kind of thing has not spread quickly, and it has a lot to do with the times.

In this era, transportation is inconvenient. Ordinary people travel around a few dozen miles in their lifetime. Most of them travel far away are big people. They don’t like this even if they have money. Moreover, because they burn kangs, there will be smoke in the houses, so they naturally don’t like it. Therefore, it spreads very slowly, and the closer they are to the Central Plains, the slower they spread.

Gao Shun thought in his mind that if he wanted to promote the kang, he would have to see the benefits. He naturally needed a plasterer. The wages were also quite large. It was estimated that some poor families would have a considerable expense.

After thinking about it, he was going to experiment first, and then use Baozheng's power to do it.

The next day, Gao Bonian ran to his security brigade in a hurry early in the morning. He remembered that he had brought back several plasterers from Erlong Mountain.

Soon, a man in his thirties stood in front of Gao Bonian.

"Yanei, his name is Yang Daxing. He is one of the plasterers brought back from Erlong Mountain that day, and one of the plasterers who was skilled in all plasterers!" Xu Ning said with his fists.

"Sir, what's your job? Just tell me. The younger ones don't have much ability, but they have a few strengths. Generally, building a house is no problem!" Yang Daxing was obviously a rough man, and he spoke straightforwardly. When he saw Gao Bonian nervously rubbing his hands.

Gao Bonian smiled slightly and said, "Don't be nervous, there is a job to be done by a plasterer, but it's not just a person, but a lot of plasterers."

When Yang Daxing heard that there was work, he immediately became happy and said, "My lord, just tell me. When a villain is in Erlong Mountain, he is a small minion called around. He has to worry about being looked at by the government army one day. Now he is following the adults to come to Yuncheng County, and is open and honest. He sleeps peacefully every day and has a full meal. He is also thinking about doing something for the adults, but he has never had a chance, hehe."

Gao Bonian stopped talking nonsense and asked, "It's a bit cold now. Are you all going to sleep hard at night?"

Yang Daxing smiled silly: "Sir, you have enough food to eat and sleep peacefully. What can this freezing be considered? Just resist it and it will pass!"

Gao Bonian shook his head: "You are young and strong, of course nothing, but how can women, children, elderly people, and sick people resist? Will you freeze most of them to death after a winter? Today I am looking for you plasterers to give you something. Once you have done it, you won't have to be frozen."

Yang Daxing suddenly showed joy in his eyes: "Really?"

Gao Bonian took out a piece of paper and drew a picture on it, which was a very simple diagram of a kang.

"This thing is just this thing. After it is done, the fire will be burned down. It will naturally not be cold when people sleep on it. However, the side can be made into rammed earth, but the top is to make a kang surface that can hold people. My idea is to use mud and water and a guillotine to cut it into inch-long wheat straw, so that the kang surface can be firmer. When it is all dry, you can do it directly. This is what I heard of in the North. You can experiment here first. If it can be done, then get all the camps up and then go to the farmers in each village to make it. I believe you can earn a little money!"

Of course, Gao Bonian couldn't say that he was born to know, that it seemed too weird, so he simply said that he heard it from Beidi, which is easy to understand.

Yang Daxing was a pragmatic person and a senior plasterer. He soon started to lead people to do a line in a barracks and quickly started looking for people and mud kangs. Anyway, there were many people in the camp, so he had the strength to find them. In addition, it was Gao Bonian's order, so everyone cooperated to transport soil and water, and after a busy work, he directly prepared all the kangs needed in the entire camp in one go.

Just wait until it's dry before continuing.

It is really not a simple matter to make these kangs made of mud and water dry. It takes time to wait.

Yang Daxing, a protector, was a plasterer and had experience. He was naturally not stupid. He told Gao Bonian in advance. Gao Bonian immediately waved his hand and brought a lot of charcoal. He prepared to build a simple baking room. Thin wooden boards were placed under the mud kang surface. After it was finished, he moved it into the baking room to separate each piece, put it in a row, and then put it in, and then a dozen large charcoal basins were baked and dried directly.

There is nothing we can do about this. The weather is so cold that we can't wait at all.

Although it consumes a lot of coal, for Gao Bonian, it will save a lot of coal. As long as the kang is ready and the coal that comes back will not be used for the time being, it is all money.

By the fifth day, Yang Daxing reported that the first batch of kang surfaces had been dry and he could start to trample the kang.

Gao Bonian was naturally happy and followed suit to watch the scene.

This is a military camp. Because they are all large bunk beds, the kangs that are naturally needed are much larger. Therefore, the kangs made by Yang Daxing here can sleep 12 people at a time, which is exactly the structure of a class.

Sleeping alone occupies one meter wide, and 12 people reach 12 meters, which is really not small. Therefore, Yang Daxing turned into two kangs in a barracks, opposite each other, which is considered to be a solution to the problem.

The rest was simple. In less than an hour, the first kang was completed. When the fire broke out below, under Gao Bonian's guidance, after the black smoke was discharged from the chimney, the surface of the kang quickly heated up. The mud water applied to the caulk was quickly evaporated.

"It's done! Hehe, sir, this kang is so good! You have saved countless people, it's so merit!" Yang Daxing burst into tears in excitement, and led a group of people to kneel down and kowtow.

Indeed, this thing is indeed not something that is difficult, but it is practical and can save countless people from being frozen in winter.

Gao Bonian couldn't stand the kowtows at any time, and quickly waved his hand and said, "All up. Since it's useful, then continue to do it. First, finish the camp, and then do it for some poor people in the city. Don't have any money. There are designated wealthy households in each area. You can count the number of kangs. In addition to the cost of manpower, add 200 cents to Lei Heng to take his people to collect the money! After the city is finished, go to each village. This is the same method. When you want money, find a security guard. If you want less money, add 100 cents to each kang outside the city! The plasterer's wages will cost 50 cents to each kang, and then allocate it yourself. Yang Daxing will draw 5 cents to each kang. As long as it is done in the entire team, you will get a commission! This matter is supervised by Qiao Yuan and cannot be deducted! The remaining ones are included in the public treasury!"

Gao Bonian left after saying that, and walked to the door and looked at the kang surface with water vapor. Suddenly reminded: "Don't go up and sleep before it is dry. First of all, it is not firm, it is easy to collapse, and moisture is easy to cause illness. The top is not firm. You can keep going up and down, and if it collapses, you can continue to get frozen!"

Gao Bonian didn't want to continue to be bowed and left directly. The rest was not something he was going to worry about.
Chapter completed!
