Chapter 186 guests

"Mr. Fu, it's amazing!" A craftsman threw the two bricks stuck together to the ground. The bricks were broken, but most of them were still stuck together. He couldn't help but smile at Liu Yi.

"It's almost too late." Liu Yi was not very satisfied. He found that the cement shrank too much during the cooling hours. It felt like there was no change in place between the two bricks, but when placed on a wall, the change would be great. What's more, the city he was about to build was expected to be as high as seven meters high. And as Chen Ergou said, even if he changed the firing method, at the current level, the cement that could be calcined could not be supplied to a city, especially in the early stages, the foundation needed most of the cement to prevent water.

"Sir, I think it's already good." Chen Ergou picked up the cement on the ground and looked at Liu Yi in confusion.

"Sand and stones, put more sand and stones!" Liu Yi frowned and recalled for a moment. He remembered that when he made cement in his previous life, he had to mix sand, and the quantity was quite large. In a piece of cement, the sand must weigh more than cement. Liu Yi looked at the craftsman beside him and said, "I ordered people to find more sand and stones, and try it first with the ratio of cement 4 and sand and stones 6."

"Here!" The craftsman quickly agreed and went to arrange for someone to copy it.

The bookkeeper in charge of the record looked at Liu Yi and said, "Mr., the data of this thing..."

"So continue to do it according to the current ratio and re-copy a real data." Liu Yi smiled. In the past few months, the biggest gain was not how much money he made, but that he finally researched the cement, which has great significance for the upcoming city building.

Liu Yi grabbed a handful of cement and showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Cement: Adhesion +24

With this attribute, and the effect of cement itself has surpassed this era, the built city has the attributes of solidity, which is probably against the will of heaven.

"From tomorrow, a special person will prepare cement. Other things can be temporarily suspended, but the cement cannot be relaxed for a moment. It will be cooked day and night, and everyone will take turns to make it." Liu Yi looked at the three elders who were responsible for managing the place. Liu Yi set up three elders in these villages, and his job was to manage these places for him.

"Don't worry, don't worry, you must remember your humble position!" The three elders quickly agreed.

At this moment, Liu Yi felt a little relieved. With this, the progress of building the city can be pushed faster. In addition, the bricks and tiles made in the workshop over the past few months are at least laid foundations and built underground parts. The men almost all brought more than 3,000 people, and the women were also recruited by Liu Yi to spin and weave cloth. The fourteen years of Jian'an were a calm period for the three major forces. They were digesting their own income or licking their wounds. Only in this least valued Jingnan land, Liu Yi was busy like a dog, and even had to take a break from his busy schedule to accompany his wife.

However, now cement has been developed, and Liu Yi no longer needs to worry about the operation of various factories. He just waits for Cui Zhouping to send someone to him and can start construction directly.

After clapping his hands, Liu Yi handed over the follow-up work to the person in charge here to continue the arrangement, he took Chen Ergou and others onto the carriage and rushed to the fishing town.

When he was still outside the fishing town, he saw that Deng was already waiting outside. When he saw Liu Yi's carriage and horses coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Why are sister-in-law here?" Liu Yi got out of the car unexpectedly and asked while walking in. He didn't have such treatment before, and there was no need for someone to greet him.

"A guest came from Jingbei, and the wife was receiving it. I came here, let's talk to the gentleman first." Deng explained to Liu Yi while walking.

"Oh? Who is here? It's like this?" Liu Yi looked at Deng in surprise. Let's have guests. Is it necessary to be so grand? Could it be that Liu Bei came in person?

It’s impossible to think about it. Liu Bei has just pacified Nanjun. Now he is probably still busy pacifying people’s hearts, so he has no time to go here to stroll around.

"It's General Yide." Mrs. Deng sighed: "I heard that he is a irritable temper and has had some holidays with his wife's father. I was worried, so I came to tell the gentleman in advance."

"Yeah." Liu Yi accelerated some steps. He was not worried about what Zhang Fei did to Lu Lingqi. Although he had a reckless temper, a big man would not really attack a pregnant woman. Moreover, the two of them got along well before. He was worried that Lu Lingqi would be unhappy and became angry.

...

There is a fireplace designed by Liu Yi in the main hall, which is burning strongly. Although the outside has begun to cool down significantly, and the weather in the south is so wet and cold, it feels colder than in the north, but in this room, I can't feel any chill or wetness.

Zhang Fei's rough face was a little unnatural in the light reflected from the fireplace at this moment.

It is impossible to be natural. When I met Lu Bu in the past, I either scolded or attacked. Even if I couldn't beat him, I never timid. But today I met Lu Bu's daughter, and it was impossible to beat him. Not to mention that the other party was still a pregnant woman, Zhang Fei could not afford to lose this person if he was rumored. What's more, Liu Yi's face was there. Not to mention that he didn't look at monks and Buddha's faces. Although Zhang Fei had a bad temper and beat and scolded soldiers at all times, Zhang Fei respected people who were truly capable from the bottom of his heart.

Although the status of craftsmen is not as high as that of scholars, during the Battle of Chibi, whether it was the weapons made by Liu Yi, the deeds of sweeping four counties within a few months, and the unique ability to work with money, it was enough to prove that Liu Yi was different from ordinary craftsmen. Otherwise, no matter how generous Liu Bei was, he would not have been able to give Liu Yi so much tolerance.

Liu Yi used his ability to make Zhang Fei respect his woman. Not to mention calling for a fight and killing, Zhang Fei even had to maintain enough respect, regardless of who her daughter she is. Now her identity is Liu Yi's wife. Besides, Lu Bu is also a capable person, but the two sides are in conflict, and Zhang Fei's hands are itchy when he meets. Now that I think about it, many things are actually unnecessary.

After following Liu Bei for so many years, Zhang Fei has been reckless, but he can see more political matters than Guan Yu. How can there be so many right or wrong in the fight between princes?

Lu Lingqi sat on the main seat as a companion, but she didn't speak, holding a bowl with her hands. It was filled with soup cooked by Mrs. Deng. She didn't like to drink it much before, but for some reason, she recently began to like this sour soup.

His eyes occasionally looked at Zhang Fei, and nodded politely to indicate to the other party to drink some tea or jerky. Nowadays, the fishing town has the most lacking in meat. The residents here eat more meat than food on weekdays. Although Lu Lingqi is not the kind of body that is prone to fat, during this period, as her abdomen continues to bulge, people will inevitably gain some weight, less heroic spirit, but more gentle feeling.

An incense burner was lit in the hall, and a faint smoke evaporated and then gradually dissipated in the air, making people feel peaceful. The entire building or the entire fishing village, Liu Yi was originally designed as a way to nourish the baby. Therefore, in terms of the environment and layout, it was the kind of mind that made people feel peaceful and comfortable. With the blessing of attributes, Zhang Fei, a reckless man, did not feel a little calm when he came in. This obviously did not match his personality, and it showed that it was indescribable strange.

Lu Lingqi is very concerned about a man with a quiet face, calm but ferocious face.

Zhang Fei felt a little awkward, but very comfortable, and had the urge to paint. His painting skills were very good.

"Sister-in-law, are Brother Bo Yuan very busy all these days?" Zhang Fei wanted to break the strange atmosphere. In order to avoid making Lu Lingqi uncomfortable, he started talking about the topic and pointed it at Liu Yi.

But as soon as he opened his words, Zhang Fei felt something was wrong. Not only was the sensible way of speaking as he was not tired, but he and Lu Bu should be considered a peer, so why should he be called Lu Bu's daughter and sister? Then Lu Bu was not comfortable being a generation older than him, but he had already said this, and it was not good to change it.

Lu Lingqi looked at Zhang Fei, probably thinking of this, her expression was indescribable, and she nodded slightly, "My husband told me that there was not enough money, and it was not easy to talk to the emperor again, so she wanted to build this area into a...Area of ​​agriculture, animal husbandry and industry to earn enough capital for construction, so she was indeed quite busy during this period, but my husband would come back every day. If you calculate the time, it should be soon. Brother can wait for a while."

Zhang Fei's mouth twitched, and the title was decided. What should he call Lu Bu if he met him underground in the future?

Suddenly, he felt like he didn't want to talk to this girl anymore. Zhang Fei pointed his head and then looked around and said, "It's quite comfortable here, no wonder Bo Yuan wants to build a city here."

The topic was terminated like this. When Liu Yi and Mrs. Deng came back, Zhang Fei even felt like he had met a savior.

"The third general is coming, why not notify me in advance, Yi is also ready." Liu Yi entered the main hall, looked at Zhang Fei, who was sitting under his butt, and asked with a smile.

But his eyes passed by Zhang Fei and looked at Lu Lingqi. Seeing that Lu Lingqi was sitting calmly, she had no unhappy expression, and even had a smile on her lips, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's nothing." Zhang Fei waved his hand, regained his heroic spirit, and smiled at Liu Yi: "For the past six months, I have been bored in Jiangling, and my brother didn't say he wanted to attack Xiangyang. He either trained soldiers or met the rich families of Jingxiang. Now his brother is about to move the capital to the public security. I have nothing to do, so I come to your place to take a look."

The public security is Chanling, which connects Bashu in the west and Han River in the east. Liu Bei only renamed him as Gongshu this year. According to Zhuge Liang's strategy of Longzhong, Liu Bei has now obtained Jingzhou. The next step is to occupy the land of Bashu. Moving to the public security also means that Liu Bei's strategic focus has begun to shift to the land of Bashu.

Liu Yi thought about it and found that Liu Bei’s foundation in Jingxiang is now unstable, and he may not be implemented in the short term. He will have to wait at least two or three years.

"Does the emperor know about this?" Liu Yi looked at Zhang Fei and asked with a smile.

"I have already told my brother that I have come here and received an errand from the supervisor." As he said that, Zhang Fei looked at Liu Yi with a smirk and said, "You are good here, do you have a place to live?"

I guess you are annoying!

Liu Yi complained in his heart and nodded, "The most insecurity of this fishing town is residence. Don't worry, the third generals are still ready. Just wait for the civilians to come and start construction."
