Datang romantic little landlord

"Five waterwheels are enough. I wonder how long Carpenter Liu can build them?"

"Ten days! Ten days is enough for this old man to build these five waterwheels, but the installation requires a lot of manpower." Carpenter Liu estimated the weight of the waterwheel, which is not something his old arms and legs can move. .

The old village is grinning: "Old man Liu, just build the waterwheel. I will call the whole village to help install it in ten days. Don't worry."

"Then there's no problem."

Li Wangyou and Carpenter Liu explained some details of building the waterwheel, and after confirming that Carpenter Liu understood everything, he left.

But just two steps away, Li Wangyou backed up again: "Carpenter Liu, I heard that your son is also a carpenter, can I ask someone to help me make something?"

Carpenter Liu said with a smile: "Xiaolang thinks highly of them if he invites them to make things. I will ask Dalang to help me make waterwheels. You can take Erlang and Saburo with you."

"Thank you so much Carpenter Liu, please invite Liu Erlang and Sanlang to come to my mansion tomorrow, and I will tell them what they need to do."

Li Wangyou remembered the bathroom remodeling plan he promised Su Changqing before, now that he has money, don't feel wronged, it's more serious to renovate the bathroom as soon as possible.

Li Wangyou could bear it in other places in the Tang Dynasty, but the hygienic conditions were too bad. Not to mention Su Changqing had an opinion, he was not used to it.

With food in hand and no panic in mind, Li Wangyou plans to expand the previous Datang modern bathroom plan.

"Old villager, can you help me find some people first? I want to renovate the house a little bit. Is there any mason in the village?"

"Yes, there are a few people in the village who usually help people build houses. Your father asked them to renovate the house. Why, Xiao Lang wants to build a house again?"

Li Wangyou smiled and shook his head: "If you don't build a house, you just simply renovate it. Besides, the old villager, where is there a kiln nearby? I also want to burn a batch of porcelain."

The old village just couldn't figure out what Li Wangyou wanted to do more and more, but in his opinion, Li Wangyou was a talented person who knew the world by looking at the waterwheel. of?

The old man felt that Li Wangyou was not the world's literary star, and he was not far behind.

So even if he couldn't figure it out, he still patiently told him where to go to make porcelain. Hu County has a kiln for firing porcelain. Although it is not a high-quality product, the craftsmanship is still passable.

Li Wangyou thanked Lao Cunzheng, and went home humming a song in a good mood.

"What's so happy about it?" Seeing Li Wangyou's smiling face, Su Changqing also asked with a smile.

"Hey, I hired someone to start renovating the house tomorrow, and the modern bathroom is about to debut!" Li Wangyou showed off to Su Changqing.

"Really?" Su Changqing was surprised and delighted by these words.

Li Wangyou patted his chest: "Leave this to me. In less than a week, you will be able to enjoy modern bathroom facilities. Go, go and help me measure the size. I will go to the county to order tiles in a while."

The little girl Peilan didn't know what her husband and sister Changqing were going to do, but she saw the two of them mysteriously carrying measuring tools to the west wing and the backyard to fiddle with for a long time, and then wrote calculations on paper.

This made her very surprised, but it was not easy to ask, so she could only hide her suspicions in her stomach.

Ever since Lang Jun suffered a serious illness, Pei Lan felt that he seemed to be a different person.

However, Peilan only felt that her husband was getting smarter and treated her better, so the little girl would not think about other things, and only hoped that her life would live like this forever, that would be the happiest.

After Li Wangyou and Su Changqing finished discussing the matter, Li Wangyou rode out to the county seat.

This horse was sent to Li Wangyou when the county officials came to measure the land in the morning. It caused quite a stir in the village, and even made the old housekeeper Li Heng laugh so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

In the eyes of the people of Tang Dynasty, owning a horse is the same as buying a car in later generations, which is worth celebrating.

Dingzhou Village is only [-] miles away from Huxian County, and it's time to ride a horse for a stick of incense.Li Wangyou inquired a little, and found a kiln for firing porcelain in the suburbs of the county.

075 Custom Porcelain

"Guest officer, what do you need to buy?"

As soon as Li Wangyou got off his horse, the shopkeeper at the kiln greeted him enthusiastically.Customers who can ride a horse are all big customers, and they deserve to be received by the shopkeeper in person.

"Shopkeeper, can your kiln make custom-made porcelain?"

"Of course, what kind of porcelain does the guest officer need to order? Although our kiln is not big, the craftsmanship of several master craftsmen is very good. Whether it is porcelain bowls, vases, and basins, we can make all kinds of shapes as long as the guest officer needs it. Made to order."

Li Wangyou smiled, took out the blueprint he had drawn from his arms and handed it over: "I need to make a batch of tiles, can you see if I can do it?"

How can a modern bathroom be without tiles?

Not only does it look beautiful, but it is also waterproof, which is essential in Li Wangyou's mind.

The shopkeeper looked at the pattern drawn on the blueprint, and his face hurt: "Guest officer, what is the use of these tiles? I have been making porcelain for so many years, and I have never seen this thing before."

"Hey, I use it myself, can I do it?"

"If you can do it, you can do it. This thing is too simple. It's just a porcelain plate. It's not difficult. Guest officer, are you sure you need to fire this kind of thing?" The shopkeeper still can't believe how anyone would want to fire such a thing.

Li Wangyou nodded: "That's right, the quantity I need is written on it, how long do you think it will take to burn it for me?"

The shopkeeper pondered for a while: "This thing is very simple, three days is enough. But you need to pay the fixed fee first, after all, if you don't want this thing after it is fired, it will be inconvenient to deal with."

"Okay, no problem. In addition, I need to fire a batch of pottery pipes. Shopkeeper, can you see if you can fire them?"

Li Wangyou took out another drawing, on which was the size and style of the pottery pipe he was going to use for the sewage pipe.

"No problem, this kind of pottery tube is also very easy to fire." The shopkeeper glanced at the blueprint, it was just an ordinary pottery tube.Many exquisite big families will also customize it for the laying of drainage pipes.

Just when the shopkeeper thought that Li Wangyou was planning to bake these simple things, Li Wangyou took out another blueprint from his pocket.

"Eh? What is this?" The shopkeeper looked at Li Wangyou with a puzzled expression.

"The toilet used by Gong Gong is also fired from ceramics. I wonder if it can be fired?"

Don't think that Li Wangyou was wrong, the toilet was indeed named after the Tang Dynasty.

Originally, the urinal was called Huzi before the Tang Dynasty, but Li Yuan’s grandfather was named Li Hu. In order to avoid the taboo of the word Hu, he changed it to Mazi, and then gradually turned it into a toilet.

Of course, Li Wangyou’s drawing of the toilet is not as complicated as that of later generations. In fact, it is a seated straight-flush toilet without backwater bends and water holes, otherwise it may not be able to be fired with the pottery firing technology of the Tang Dynasty.

His explanation stunned the shopkeeper again, and he looked at Li Wangyou strangely, feeling that the customer ordered something weird today.

But he won't make things difficult for money, he nodded and replied: "It can be fired..."

Before the picture was finished, Li Wangyou stretched his hand into his arms again... The shopkeeper is going crazy, can't he take out something to be fired at once?

After finally explaining the things to be fired, the shopkeeper was not in a hurry, and squinted at Li Wangyou, wanting to see if he could take out any blueprints from his arms.

Li Wangyou was furiously stared at by the shopkeeper, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Hey, it's gone, just burn these things."

"Guest officer, there are five copper coins in total, and the set money is two." After confirming that Li Wangyou no longer took out the blueprints, the shopkeeper calculated the total price.

"Yes, but you have to help me deliver the goods to Dingzhou Village, okay?"

Seeing that the distance was not far away, the shopkeeper agreed.
