The world's first county magistrate

Chapter 82 Cement
In fact, when Song Wei saw Li Bei's expression as soon as he entered the door, he had already expected it.

But Song Wei still felt happy after hearing Li Bei's words.

Expecting it and hearing it are two different things.

Looking at Li Bei, Song Wei smiled.

"Good job!"

Song Wei praised.

Although we don't know exactly what happened now, Song Wei was a little surprised to hear that all the salt was sold out.

Asking Li Bei to sit down, Song Weicai said slowly, "What exactly happened these few days?"

Song Wei was still a little curious about these.

Li Bei was very happy when he heard Song Wei praise him.

Then when he heard Song Wei ask himself, Li Bei licked his lips.

Even if Song Wei didn't ask, Li Bei would still say something.

After that, Li Bei told Song Wei everything about these days.

Including meeting with Jiang Zheng, reporting the crime, discovering Li Nan, and putting Wang Yangqiu in jail.

Song Wei listened with gusto, but Song Wei wasn't interested in what happened before.

When he heard that Li Nan was not taken away by the county magistrate, Song Wei raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect it either.

Song Wei was also surprised when he heard what happened next.

He naturally knew that the red fox was pretending, but he didn't expect that it was the son of Yongquan county official Wai.

What happened was considered safe, especially when Li Bei forcefully questioned Wang Yangqiu. Song Wei also looked at Li Bei with admiration.

Don't look at each other for three days!
When Song Wei heard that the salt shop was full today and all the salt was sold out in just one morning, Song Wei smiled.

Other things are secondary, selling salt is Song Wei's purpose.

"My lord's salt sales are so good. I came back this time not only to report the news to my lord, but also to buy another batch of salt."

Li Bei finally said.

Song Wei nodded. Indeed, under such circumstances, he may have to send salt to Yongquan County in the past few days.

And Yushan County also has a large amount of salt to send.

Everything was developing in the direction Song Wei hoped for. Song Wei smiled and said, "It's natural. Today, the salt will be sent to Yongquan County overnight. Thank you for your hard work this time."

"Moreover, there will be more people buying salt from the Yongquan County Salt Shop in the future, and they will be more tired at that time. You must take a good rest."

Song Wei said with concern.

Li Bei's heart warmed, and he nodded: "Thank you for your concern. The small one will definitely open up the market in Yongquan County."

Song Wei nodded silently: "How many days will you return to Yongquan County?"

Song Wei asked.

Li Bei nodded. He had to go back. Li Nan alone was too busy.

Song Wei also nodded: "Then I will go to the salt mine immediately, and send the salt there now."

"Thank you sir."

Li Bei knelt down and said nothing.

Song Wei helped Li Bei up: "No need to be polite, you have helped me a lot."

Indeed, now that the cement is available, Song Wei is now waiting for this batch of capital turnover, and Li Bei has completed the task ahead of schedule.

The next thing Song Wei has to do is to pave the way for Zhen'an County.

A few days ago, a large amount of cement was shipped back to the county government, and it was still being shipped in a steady stream.

Li Bei brought more than enough funds at this time.

"Don't dare."

Li Bei said quickly.

Song Wei shook his head with a smile, and didn't care too much about it.

Come outside the gate and ask the government officials to notify the salt mine, and then go to Yongquan County to deliver a batch of salt.

Then Li Bei also left.

He has to go back.

After Li Bei left, Song Wei came to Cai Hu's room.

"grown ups?"

Cai Hu was resting at first, and was a little surprised to see Song Wei.

Song Wei didn't feel anything, looked at Cai Hu and said: "The cement is already there, and the funds are sufficient now, and there are things to do next."

Cai Hu said quickly: "My lord, please feel free to give me any orders."

Cai Hu is not stupid, so he naturally knew what Song Wei meant when he said this,
Song Wei said slowly: "You will go to Zhen'an County to find a group of workers later and start paving the way for Zhen'an County from tomorrow."

Cai Hu was shocked, so fast?
Some cement has already been shipped, but there has been no action before because of funding problems.

Didn't expect it to be so soon.

But Cai Hu didn't say much, he just said: "Yes, sir."

Song Wei nodded.

This time he didn't intend to recruit migrant workers. Before, he recruited migrant workers to do things for himself. This time, he just paved the way for Zhen'an County.

It is enough to find some workers who are experienced in paving.

"Don't worry about this matter, just find enough people to do it before tomorrow."

Song Wei saw that Cai Hu wanted to leave, so he said.

Cai Hu nodded.

Then leave.

Song Wei also returned to his room.

His eyes were fixed on the map of Zhen'an County on the desktop.

Paving the road is not something that can be done in a day, and after the cement is paved, it has to wait for it to solidify.

No one can walk on it, so Song Wei arranged the order in the morning,

All he has to do now is wait until tomorrow.

Song Wei was not worried about Cai Hu's efficiency at all, and soon Cai Hu found all the people.

Arriving at Song Wei's room, Cai Hu looked at Song Wei and said, "Sir, everyone has been found."

Song Wei on the side nodded: "Inform them that at dawn tomorrow, all of them will gather at the gate of the county government office."

"Yes!"

Cai Hu nodded.

Song Wei didn't speak after that, Cai Hu waited for a while to see that Song Wei had nothing else to say, and then left.

Song Wei waited until Cai Hu left before raising his head. He had already planned to transform Zhen'an County.

So he intends to pave the best road for this era.

Nothing happened, the night passed.

In the early morning, as soon as the sky became bright, a large group of people gathered at the gate of the county government office.

At this time Song Wei came out from the county government office.

After looking at the people in front of him, Song Wei said: "You must already know what I am looking for you for. There are still many roads in Zhen'an County that are dirt roads."

"The road is uneven. In order to provide a good environment for the people, this official plans to pave the road for Zhen'an County."

"You are all experienced in paving, but the paving materials this time are a bit special."

After speaking, Song Wei clapped his hands.

A yamen servant came out behind him, holding cement in his hand.

"This thing is called cement. I can show you how to use it."

Song Wei picked up the cement and said to the person in front of him.

And people looked at Song Wei in surprise, because Song Wei was holding a bag of flour-like things.

Can this thing pave the way?
This is what all of them are still thinking about.

But after listening to Song Wei's explanation, they realized that they were ignorant.

They used stones to pave the road before, and they didn't know that there was such a paving material.

Song Wei put the cement into the mold, which is just for better display, and the mold is not used when paving the road.

Then Song Wei put some more sand and water.

Then still stir.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the mold in Song Wei's hand.

They wanted to know how this "flour" was used to pave the road.

Song Wei was not in a hurry. Cement needs to be mixed with some things in a certain proportion.

And even after stirring, it still needs to wait for it to become firm.

Soon after, Song Wei stopped what he was doing and showed the cement to everyone.

"This is what it looks like, although it still doesn't look paved now, but when it solidifies, it becomes extremely hard."
