Daqin: At the beginning, the father-in-law was invited to rebel, but the father-in-law turned out to

He briefly mentioned: "It's not just iron smelting and forging. Song Yuan's saltworks, wine making and other crafts also have to try to steal from his master. He has a lot of good things here!"

Li Si said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, I must urge the craftsmen to learn everything!"

Brother Zheng smiled and said: "Good! If there are not enough craftsmen, you can continue to lead people!"

Lis nodded.

Brother Zheng withdrew his satisfied gaze, and then looked at Wang Jian and Meng Yi who were in a daze.

Wang Jian was clever, and he quickly said: "Your Majesty, I petitioned to go to Song Yuan's school to study. The private soldiers in Songjiazhuang are infinitely powerful. Maybe it has the effect of Song Yuan's potion, and there should be other assistance!"

He didn't just talk nonsense.

But just after observing, he discovered that the training methods of the Song family army were more advanced than those of the Qin army, and he could definitely learn something.

Brother Zheng nodded, glanced at Meng Yi who had a troubled expression on his face, and said: "You can recover from your injuries during this period of time. When you are free, you can go to Song Yuan to set up a routine, and see if you can learn his healing method. .”

Meng Yi quickly nodded and said: "Yes!"

He knew His Majesty's intentions. If Song Yuan's method of quickly treating the wounds could steal all of them, the Qin army could save countless soldiers who died of injuries on the battlefield in the future.

The three of them had made arrangements, and Brother Zheng also heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as the three of them complete the task conscientiously, the excavation of Songjiazhuang will be accelerated.

But Meng Tian at the side was a little confused, he pointed to himself and said: "Your Majesty, where is the minister? What does the minister want to do?"

Brother Zheng raised his brows and said, "Just follow me, and if you have nothing to do, just go and see the situation in the field."

Meng Tian was overjoyed, and quickly agreed, he was already used to this pattern.

As for going to the field to see the situation, it was only a few steps away.

At this time, Li Si suddenly said: "Your Majesty, speaking of the situation in the field, it seems that the sweet potato is about to ripen?"

Brother Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "That's right, there is still a month to go, and the sweet potatoes will grow! At that time, we can see if Song Yuan is bragging."

When everyone heard the words, they all sighed.

They don't know if Song Yuan is bragging or not, but so far, except for sweet potatoes, everything Song Yuan said has become reality.

Even training private soldiers, something they thought Song Yuan didn't understand at all.

Song Yuan can cooperate with the potion, develop his own training method, and the training output is infinite, far surpassing the monster soldiers of the Qin army.

So sweet potatoes, why can't we look forward to it?

After all, Song Yuan took out Quyuanli and waterwheels to pave the road for sweet potatoes, which obviously shows that he has great confidence in sweet potatoes.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look forward to it.

One mu yields 2000 catties, and one mu yields 6000 catties. If it really grows, then...

Li Si suddenly had an idea, and lost his voice: "Your Majesty, judging from the chestnut rice and rice, if there is still one month to grow, there should be half-ripe potatoes and sweet potatoes in the cultivated field. Why are there only green seedlings?"

Brother Zheng also became a little puzzled when he heard this.

Others are even more confused.

Only Meng Tian said at this time: "Your Majesty, I remember that Song Yuan said just now that there are probably a lot of them in the ground. Does it mean that sweet potatoes grow in the ground?"

"Potatoes...potatoes, ground beans! In this way, they may really be in the ground!"

Meng Yi muttered.

Brother Zheng couldn't help but move when he saw this, and he said, "If it's according to what Li Si said, I'm afraid there are really a lot of half-cooked sweet potatoes in the field, why don't you dig a few?".

Chapter 40

As soon as Brother Zheng opened his mouth, he knew if there was one.

Everyone was stunned.

Yup!

I didn't know that sweet potatoes grow in the ground.

Now that I know it all, I am still waiting to guess whether it is so high-yielding, why not just dig it out and see?

Meng Tian who is in charge of this area is very active, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, I will go now!"

When other people heard the words, they were also eager to try. Who wouldn't want to see the grain yield of 2000 catties per mu, or even 6000 catties?

Li Si hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I will go to the workshop to supervise the work later, and you can accompany Commander Meng!"

Wang Jian followed suit and said, "Your Majesty, I can accompany you to the school grounds later!"

Meng Yi looked left and right, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I can help Commander Meng look out!"

When Brother Zheng saw this, he was upset, you all went, don't you want me to go?

And he didn't want Song Yuan to know about it, so he had to be careful.

Like Meng Tian and the others, if the four of them go out together, they will be discovered on the spot.

Brother Zheng immediately waved his hand and said: "Don't worry for now, it's still early, and at night, the village will be asleep, let's go and find out!"

When everyone heard the words, they had no choice but to give up.

Brother Zheng said again: "You go down first... hiss!"

As he said that, Brother Zheng suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. The pain was so painful that he lost all other consciousness and could only cover his head and bury it between his knees.

When everyone saw this, their hearts tightened, and Li Si even shouted: "Go and call Song Yuan!"

Meng Tian was about to rush out with big strides.

"no need!"

At this time, Zheng Ge suddenly shouted.

The four of Li Si quickly looked at Brother Zheng and found that His Majesty seemed to have recovered.

Li Si asked worriedly, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Brother Zheng rubbed the back of his head, and said in a weak tone, "It's nothing serious."

The weak tone is not convincing.

Meng Tian said with a worried face: "Your Majesty, I should go to Song Yuan to help you take a look?"

Wang Jian was well aware of His Majesty's temperament, so he persuaded him: "Yes, Your Majesty's dragon body is important, why don't you let Song Yuan take a look?"

Brother Zheng said seriously: "No need, that boy Song Yuan said he had a craniotomy for treatment, what if he wants to open my brain?"

The four of Li Si were stunned, and a picture involuntarily appeared in their minds.

Song Yuan had blood on his hands, and beside him lay His Majesty whose head had been cut open.

hiss!

All four of them had numb scalps and chills in their hearts.

Don't go looking for Song Yuan anymore.

But Li Si still said: "Your Majesty, why don't you ask the palace to send a doctor here, just in case!"

Brother Zheng shook his head again and said: "No need, small things won't kill you, big things can't be managed well by Song Yuan, and others are useless."

When Wang Jian heard this, he knew that His Majesty had lost his temper, but he still felt uneasy and wanted to persuade him.

Brother Zheng said displeasedly: "That's enough! I know my body well, but it's just a headache. Maybe it's because I'm not used to sleeping here last night, a stiff neck or a cold."

In his opinion, it was just a sharp pain, but now that the pain has passed, it doesn't feel that serious.

The crowd had to give up.

"Okay, go ahead and do whatever you need to do. I'll take a break, and I have to dig sweet potatoes in the middle of the night."

Brother Zheng waved his hand.

The four of Li Si looked at each other, and finally made a decision. The Meng brothers stayed behind, while Wang Jian and Li Si left the courtyard and performed their duties.

The news also reached the owner's mansion.

Listening to Song Jiajun's report, Song Yuan smiled in his heart.

He had expected that the Ji family brothers would stay with him. Butler Ji had always played the role of bodyguard, and his younger brother should be similar.

And when Li Qi went to supervise the work, he still couldn't tell whether he was a counselor. Wang Lao went to the school to observe, and it was very likely that he was a high-ranking member of Zhao's army, or even a certain general.

Song Yuan pondered for a while, then gave up guessing their identities.

He looked at the things on the ground, let's get the cement out first.

The production of cement is simple and very simple. It is nothing more than grinding the raw materials into powder, then firing the clinker, and finally mixing it with an appropriate amount of gypsum and grinding it into powder. When it needs to be used, it can be mixed with water.

But it's just easy to say.

With the current level of productivity and technology in Songjiazhuang, it is completely incapable of making modern cement.

Not to mention the grinding of raw materials, it is impossible to build a large kiln for firing clinker, which requires a lot of steel, and the original firepower is not enough to support the firing, so electricity is required.

Not to mention electricity, steel is not enough.

Song Yuan could only take the second place and make cement instead.

In fact, at the beginning of the invention of cement, Chinese people discovered a unique building material, which is very similar to modern cement and has good hydraulicity and solidification.

It is directly prepared from natural marl without any calcination, and is also known as natural cement.

This is also the most suitable cement for Songjiazhuang.

It does not require too many steps to make and has powerful performance. It is an important item for the future Songjiazhuang infrastructure!

The only problem is that Song Yuan still doesn't know the specific configuration ratio, so he can only try a little bit according to the construction site experience in his previous life.

"Work hard! With cement, Zhuangzi's development will take off!"

Song Yuan looked at the marl in front of him, took a deep breath, and began to configure natural cement. .

Chapter 41

Song Yuan was busy until the evening, and even ate dinner in the backyard, and finally tested the perfect cement ratio.

He originally planned to prepare more cement, and asked Song Jiajun to start building the steel plant at night.

But Ying Shiman, who was depressed after being taken with the child for a day, was taken away.

The name is to relax Song Yuan, but it is a vengeful relaxation until the early morning, when the lights of the owner's mansion are turned off.

outside the yard.

Meng Tian wiped off his sweat and complained, "It's nice to be young..."

With that said, he also returned to the courtyard where Brother Zheng was.

Seeing Meng Tian coming back, Brother Zheng frowned and said, "Why is it so long? Song Yuan can't stay up all the time, can he?"

Before Meng Tian could answer, Wang Jian joked, "You won't fall into the latrine, will you?"

Meng Tian's face turned dark, and he said numbly: "Your Majesty, Song Yuan wanted a grandson for you, so he fell asleep just now."

Brother Zheng froze for a moment, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Meng Tian, ​​you have worked hard. Since he is asleep, let's go plow the fields now!"

Meng Tian nodded, Li Si, Wang Jian and Meng Yi also looked excited, they could finally dig sweet potatoes, they were almost falling asleep just waiting.

The five members of the Great Qin Dynasty are dispatched together!

The night was dark and windy, and there was no light in the village. The moon was also covered by dark clouds, and only a little light was revealed.

Seeing the sky like this, Brother Zheng even said: "God help me! Meng Tian, ​​you lead the way, don't miss this good opportunity!"

Meng Tian nodded and hurriedly led the way.

The number of times he came to Songjiazhuang was second only to Brother Zheng, and he often went to observe the plowing fields. Even if he couldn't see clearly, he came to Zhuangzi's plowing fields smoothly according to his memory.

In the plowing field, except for the shadows of a few scarecrows, there is no sign of trouble.

Brother Zheng immediately said in a low voice: "Hurry up, the four of you dig together, dig the same place, and see if there are half-ripe fruits inside!"
