Chapter 272 Water Diversion 2

After finally leaving the city gate, Lin Qian gradually adapted to the feeling of being on the horse's back, so as soon as she left the city gate, I shook the reins and the speed of chasing the electricity immediately increased.

After walking on the only road to the construction site, I saw that the narrow mountain road had been expanded to the width of four carriages that could pass through. Many workers were busy on the road. In order not to affect the transportation of materials outside to the hot spring construction site, the road was built first and half to the construction site. After it could bear the weight of the carriage transport, the other half began to be built.

I don't pay much attention to road construction. After all, the heaviest carriage in Dazhou is only a few hundred kilograms, and the foundation for road construction has a relatively high load-bearing capacity. It is not as troublesome as modern society to build roads. As long as there is no problem with the concrete mix ratio, there will be no problems after the road is completed.

However, I asked someone to find the person in charge of the road construction, and emphasized two issues in a key way: one is slope protection. There are many places on this road that have been dug up the mountain, destroying the vegetation above. If there is no slope protection, it is likely to collapse when it encounters heavy rain. If there is someone below, it may pose a threat to human life. Therefore, for places that damage the mountain, no matter how high it is, I emphasized that the slope protection must be set up. The second is drainage. The design of the entire road should be high in the middle and on both sides.

It is low. When it rains, the rainwater will be discharged directly to both sides. The side close to the outside can be thrown and flowed down directly, but a ditch must be set up inside so that the rainwater on the road is discharged through the ditch. The rainwater from the mountain can not flow on the road but in the ditch. There are crops in some places, so I also emphasize that the pools should be built between these crop fields, and the drainage ditches connect to the pools. When it rains, these pools can collect rainwater to facilitate farmers to irrigate the farm.

It was not too early to say this, so we hurried to the construction site. Because we knew I was coming, Mr. Liu, Uncle He and Gongsun Xiwu had been waiting at the gate of the construction site.

As soon as we arrived, they came up. Everyone made a few simple and polite words and then they came to the point: Water!

We walked slowly along the hillside to the halfway up the hillside, where we could overlook the entire construction site.

Although only a few small buildings were opened, the construction site was still very busy. Materials were being transported from outside, and the foundations of some small buildings had been completed. The foundations were being made.

I nodded, and was still very satisfied with the situation in front of mechanization. It is now good to achieve such a result in just one month, and I also know many reasons for this villa name: Royal Hot Spring Villa! Everyone knows that this villa was approved by the emperor today, so although some officials of the court are not very satisfied with me, they dare not make things difficult for me. The materials transported from other places can easily arrive in the capital, with a lot of red tape.

The rapid operation of the eldest prince's Ministry of Labor dispelled the doubts of the people in the capital. After a short period of labor shortage, a large amount of labor in the capital was replenished. The so-called "many people" is very powerful. In the current Great Zhou, which relies entirely on the tactics of the sea of ​​people, there will be progress. Another reason is that the chamber of commerce and Gongsun family have strong financial support, and the materials and workers' monthly money can be paid on time and will never be owed. This also makes the material dealers and workers feel more at ease. This naturally makes the work very hard.

When I arrived at the construction site, Lin Qian's face gradually recovered. She didn't say anything when I was looking at the construction site. She looked at the construction site curiously, with surprise in her eyes.

Mr. Liu and others looked at me with an expression of agreement. They looked at each other and felt relieved. Although I did not ask much about the project after the development of the commercial street in Shangling, I had to consult my opinion when encountering some major problems or designs. Now this hot spring project is the first project of the construction company under the Chamber of Commerce to Beijing, and it is also a royal project. There are higher requirements for quality and project progress. There are also many famous places in the capital, such as the Royal Palace, which is one of them. After hundreds of years of repair and reconstruction in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Royal Palace is now the highest reflection of the architectural level of the Great Zhou Dynasty. For the hot spring project, this is undoubtedly a mountain in front of you. You can either catch up and compare the palace with a higher level. The lowest limit is that you cannot lose to the Royal Palace. In this way, the development of the Chamber of Commerce in the capital is undoubtedly a good start.

Similarly, if the Hot Spring Villa was finally built, it would undoubtedly be a big blow to the Chamber of Commerce. The worst of this blow was that the Chamber of Commerce would lose its construction market in the capital from then on.

Therefore, the construction of several of the important buildings has not started yet. This is not because Mr. Liu and others are timid, but because of caution.

Now the most eye-catching thing in the project is a big pit in the middle, which is the location of the Moon Tower in the future. So I pointed there and asked, "That big pit is the location of the Moon Tower?"

Mr. Liu nodded and said, "Not bad! But our problem now is that there is no water source."

They had already talked about this at the dinner table yesterday, which is also a big problem that restricts the entire villa. Although there are hot springs, they cannot be used as a pond in the Moon Tower.

"If there is water, how do you decide to deal with this water?" I asked, and I really wanted to hear their opinions.

Uncle He, who was on the side, said at this time: "We want to use water to penetrate the entire villa, enter from the Moon Tower, and then come out from the other side."

I nodded. This idea is similar to what I thought, but there is another problem that the attractive waterscape must have a three-dimensional sense, which is so attractive that it looks more energetic and more lively than the smooth flowing water. To have a living feeling, there must be a gap between the water brought in and the Moon Tower without a pump. The river as a source of water must ensure two aspects: one is that the river water will not stop flowing, and the water surface in the second river must be higher than the Moon Tower. So I raised my own questions about these two questions.

When Uncle He heard this, he said respectfully: "Don't worry, the head of the family, we have sent someone to investigate this before. The upper reaches of the river is a larger river, and this river is only a branch of it. We also asked some local people and learned that the river has not flowed out. As for the drop, after careful measurement, we determined that the river surface is about 3 meters higher than the designed water surface of Wangyue Tower. The reason for this situation is that the terrain here is relatively low now."

"Very good!" I couldn't help but clapped my hands.

The drop of about 3 meters is about 3 meters, so it has a completely high height to make it a waterfall. Just like the small valley at the beginning. But now I don’t know the structure of the mountain. If there are few stones, I can only use cement to reinforce it in the end, but then it will lose some natural taste. So I asked, “Are there many stones in the mountain here?”

When I heard me ask Uncle He, I couldn't help but look bitter and said, "Head of the family, I was just about to report this matter to you. There are so many stones here, which can be regarded as a stone mountain. It has increased the difficulty of construction!" After saying that, he looked at me, hoping that I could give them an opinion.

To his surprise, not only did I not look any disgusting on my face, but instead laughed and said happily: "God helps me!"

Uncle He and others looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

I ignored the surprised expression on their faces and ordered: "Get the general map!"

Gongsun Xiwu immediately took out the drawings, and I took them, arranged them according to the location where I am now standing, pointing to the farthest out of the mountain range and said, "Look, our hot spring exit is here. And the location of the Moon Tower is here! On this hillside, we used to have several pavilions, but now we cancelled, and asked someone to dig out the hillside here, dig a pool for me first below, and then the water was poured into the pond of the Moon Tower through the ditch. The water was trying to find a way to lure me from above."

"At the same time! Build a path for me next to the pool where the waterfall falls. It's not too wide, just pass by two people. And at the end of the path, that is, the middle of the cliff, I'm digging some rooms inside the hole. As for the name of this hole, it's called the Water Curtain Cave!"

I just heard Uncle He say that the mountain is full of stones and can be regarded as a rocky mountain. So it is entirely possible to dig a hole in the mountain. As for the name of the cave entrance, I'm sorry, I'm a loyal fan of Stephen Chow, and I have watched his "A Chinese Odyssey" more than once. I originally planned to name it Pansi Cave, but I thought about it and still would be more suitable to get the water curtain cave.

Uncle He and others looked at me in amazement, while Lin Qian's eyebrows and eyes kept looking at me.

After a long time, Mr. Liu asked, "What if the guests go in and wet their clothes? You should know that those who come here in the future are either princes and nobles or celebrities!"

"Is this easy?" I laughed and said, "Do you remember that our Shangling publishes the "Shangling Commercial Price Guide" every once in a while? This is the same. When those guests arrive, I will send them a "Royal Hot Spring Villa Guide", which focuses on the water curtain cave, but it is in the precautions. The rough content is to ask them not to enter the water curtain cave, because the water on it will wet their clothes."

"Ah?" Everyone was shocked, and Old Master Liu even asked, "Where are people going in?"
Chapter completed!
