Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

Chapter 178 Chapter 178: Zhu Li displayed the magical weapon Wu Doukai, shocking Zhu Di!

Although these small high-rise buildings of about four or five stories are not as conspicuous as the Hanzhong Business Building, Zhu Di knew without thinking that if they were to be placed in Beiping Mansion, only truly wealthy families could build them!

But now it seems that these small high-rise buildings in Hanzhong are basically residential buildings!

For buildings like this facing the street, the first floor is used for commercial shops, and starting from the second floor upwards, they are basically all residential buildings!

"Lao Jiu, what are these houses built with?"

"It looks like it's not wood or stone bricks. It's all cement on the surface, right?"

Zhu Di looked at these small tall buildings and asked Zhu Yue.

During the day, he was thinking about this matter. At the same time, he was testing whether Lao Jiu would have any reservations about him and tell him the truth!

"These buildings are all made of red bricks, a building material that was only developed not long ago!"

"Hanzhong Mansion is slowly replacing all those old houses with red bricks!"

Zhu Li explained with a smile.

In this regard, he has nothing to hide. Building a house with red bricks is actually no secret in Hanzhong, because ordinary people can buy it!

As long as Zhu Di has time to inquire about it himself, he will know!

"Red brick?"

When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help but feel excited!

"Yes, the cost of red bricks is lower than traditional stone bricks, but when combined with cement, it is more than enough to build such a low-rise building!"

Zhu Li continued to explain.

"Is there such a good thing?"

"Although these red bricks are not as sophisticated as the stone bricks used to build the Great Wall, they are sufficient for building residential houses, and they are not as flammable as houses made of wood!"

After listening to Lao Jiu's explanation, Zhu Di said with bright eyes.

"Yes, there is no comparison between this thing and the stone bricks used to build the Great Wall!"

Zhu Li smiled and nodded.

After all, the cost of stone bricks to build the Great Wall is too high, but the high cost has its own reasons. After all, the Great Wall in the Ming Dynasty can stand for hundreds of years, so one can imagine the quality of the bricks used!

As for these ordinary residential buildings, the requirements are naturally not that high. It is enough to ensure that a house can be lived in for twenty or thirty years without problems!

In twenty or thirty years, at worst, it will be dismantled and rebuilt again. The cost is relatively cheap anyway!

Of course, the Han Palace is different. The bricks used to build the Han Palace are basically the same bricks used to build the Great Wall!

Only by using the same bricks as the Great Wall can the Han Palace still exist after a hundred years!

This is how many brick structures of historical sites came to be!

Of course, wooden structures can also stand for hundreds of years as long as they are of good quality, such as the Forbidden City and many ancient temples!

But the problem is that the fire protection of this thing is so poor, it has gone through countless fires and reconstructions in history!

Zhu Li plans to build the Forbidden City in the future with reinforced concrete as the main body. At most, it will imitate the traditional system and details and retain some original ancient elements!

Of course, in addition to the main structure, the interior decoration materials also have to refer to the original Forbidden City!

For example, there are 68 pillars in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and they are all valuable golden nanmu!

Maybe it seems a bit too luxurious for today, but in future generations, its value is simply immeasurable, and it is also a precious wealth left to everyone in future generations!

"How to bake these red bricks, Lao Jiu, can you also teach my fourth brother?"

"Don't worry, fourth brother doesn't want it in vain, you can just give me a price!"

Zhu Di's mind became more active at this time, and he spoke directly to Zhu Yue.

Fires often happen in people's houses in Beiping Prefecture, and because most of them are wooden houses, if a house catches fire, it will basically burn down a large area!

Such a loss is not small!

Going back, I will slowly replace all the houses in Beiping Prefecture with red brick houses like this, so that the risk of fire can be minimized!

"It's just red bricks. If Fourth Brother wants it, why not give the manufacturing method to you?"

When Zhu Yue heard this, she waved her hands disapprovingly, as if talking about money was too tacky!

"deliver?"

Zhu Di was stunned when he heard this!

Is this still the same Lao Jiu who refused to deliver goods to him because of twenty thousand taels of silver?

Is such a good thing given to him for free?

Of course he didn't know that the reason why Zhu Yue gave him the red brick was because the Beiping Mansion in the future planned to use it as the capital!

No matter how good the construction is now, no matter how much it is built, it means that he, Zhu Di, is just helping with the work!

On the contrary, Zhu Li felt a little embarrassed!

Think about it, after Zhu Di was so happy to build the Peking Mansion in style, what would he look like when he suddenly learned that the imperial court was moving the capital to Peking?

Of course, Zhu Yue just wanted to think about it.

After all, if he traveled to six hundred years later, the fourth child would probably know everything he should know!

Maybe after traveling back through time, he won’t want the red brick technical formula anymore?

Anyway, you can be as generous as you want now. Let’s impress this fourth brother first!

"Actually, the cost of building this kind of red brick is very cheap, and it doesn't make much money. It can be regarded as something that benefits the people!"

"Even if other feudal lords open their mouths, I will definitely give it away for nothing!"

Zhu Yue said with a smile.

"You really impressed Fourth Brother!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

That's easy to say!

How much money can't you make?

One or two yuan may not make you any money, but the problem is that the volume of this thing is huge!

If you want to replace all the houses in a city with red bricks, how many bricks will be needed?

This is a huge fortune!

However, what Zhu Yue is thinking is that if I ask you to help me work, I have to give you some benefits. Even if there is profit, it is equivalent to paying for your hard work!

Lest you come back to your senses and feel like brother, I’m cheating on you!

Zhu Di didn't know that Lao Jiu was thinking of tricking him!

The father, son and brother had walked downstairs of the Hanzhong Business Building without knowing it!

Naturally, the three of them soon appeared on the roof of the Hanzhong Business Building!

Looking down at the night view of the entire Hanzhong City, Zhu Di was naturally filled with emotion. It was a completely different feeling from the night view he saw in Xi'an Mansion!

But Zhu Yue and Zhu Yuanzhang, father and son, are obviously much calmer. After all, they have watched it countless times!

Even Zhu Yuanzhang comes here whenever he wants. Not to mention that he is tired of seeing him, at least he can treat him with a normal heart. How can he still be as shocked as when he first saw him?

"By the way, Lao Jiu, this Hanzhong Business Building, can you help Fourth Brother build one in Beiping Mansion?" At this time, Zhu Di was thinking about the business building again!

"Fourth brother has already spoken, so of course there will be no problem!"

"However, although the commercial building is good, you need to establish a huge business to reflect its value!"

"Based on the current situation of Beiping Mansion, it seems that it cannot be built, or that there is no need for such a commercial building at all, right?"

Zhu Yue said this because he was afraid of tricking Zhu Di too hard!

After all, it is certain that business buildings will be built in Beiping Mansion in the future, and the capital will also be moved there!

I’ve already asked you to help build a red brick house. Isn’t it inappropriate to ask you to build a commercial building as well?

"That seems to be the case!"

"Then let's do it step by step. After Beiping Mansion can have a large number of caravans coming and going, we can talk about the business building!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help but look embarrassed.

He also knew that it was basically impossible for Lao Jiu to give him a business building for free. Even if Lao Jiu was willing to help, he would have to pay a huge price, such as manpower, material and financial resources!

But he ignored the current situation of Beiping Mansion!

Once this commercial building is built, I'm afraid it will go to my grandma's house!

Perhaps the only thing that can be used in Peiping now seems to be the name of Yuan Dadu in the past!

Besides that, what else?

Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, remained silent all the time, just listening to the conversation between the two brothers, and twitching the corners of his mouth from time to time!

He discovered that Lao Jiu was really a loser!

Fortunately, the damage was not excessive and the fourth child was trapped to death!

……

In the next two days, Zhu Yuanzhang did not say the purpose of summoning Zhu Di this time.

Zhu Di is not in a hurry. He is now asking Zhu Yue about various ways to develop Beiping Mansion every day.

So Zhu Di "smoothly" "trapped" Zhu Querk's technology for making cement and making briquettes!

Zhu Di didn't expect that things would go so smoothly, and it even made him feel a little guilty about Lao Jiu!

Could it be that my fourth brother was not generous enough before?

Lao Jiu is really interesting!

This trip to Hanzhong was really worth it. I picked up three key production technologies for almost nothing. When I go back, I will have red bricks, cement and briquettes. Beiping Prefecture will not have to worry about it!

There’s no need to go all the way back from the northwest!

However, Zhu Di could not have imagined that such convenience would only serve as a wedding dress for Lao Jiu in the future!

After all, he would never have thought that Beiping Mansion would become the capital of the Ming Dynasty!

Just like that, two nights later.

After dinner, Zhu Yuanzhang left brothers Zhu Di and Zhu Yue in the pavilion to continue drinking tea!

For three nights in a row, the three of them basically had dinner and then went out to go shopping, but today they sat down.

Zhu Di also knew that the old man was out of character today, and he probably had something to tell him!

This should also be the purpose of the old man summoning him this time!

"Fourth Brother, when we ask you to come to Hanzhong this time, we actually want to take you to see the prosperous age more than six hundred years later!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say anything nonsense and just showed off his cards!

However, when Zhu Di heard this, he was stunned and couldn't react for a long time!

What does it mean to take yourself to see the prosperous age six hundred years from now?

The Ming Dynasty six hundred years later?

Isn't this nonsense?

Not to mention whether the Ming Dynasty could really last for more than six hundred years. Even if it could, how could I see it?

"We know that this thing sounds a bit unbelievable, but what we say is true, because we have a magical object called National Fortune and Auspiciousness, which can predict the future and even take people through time to future generations..."

Zhu Yuanzhang simply explained the auspiciousness of the country and the time shuttle. The general process was almost the same as when he told Zhu Yue!

Zhu Di was almost numb!

If it weren't for the fact that Lao Jiu was right next to him with a calm look on his face, he would have obviously known about this for a long time. He would have doubted whether the old man was suffering from hysteria!

What made his scalp numb even more was that the old man actually said that he would rebel and also wanted to be the emperor?

He did have that intention, but that was because Zhu Biao would die young if he really did what Yao Guangxiao said!

But what does it mean that he didn't make any money from Laojiu in the end?

Lao Jiu actually rebelled and became emperor?

But soon, Zhu Di had no time to think about these questions, because he heard a keyword!

Life extension pill! ?

According to the old man, Lao Jiu's cultivation of Taoism and alchemy is not just a joke, but a real thing!

Not only can Lao Jiu refine any magic weapon, but he can even refine the life-extending pill, a heaven-defying elixir that can extend lifespan?

Zhu Di didn't even care about being shocked, because he realized a problem!

If you want to prove whether what the old man said is true, then you just have to prove whether Lao Jiu really has that ability!

"Dad, is there really such a thing as a life-extending pill in the world?"

Zhu Di raised the question directly.

"It's useless to talk more. Just let Lao Jiu show you what a high-level magic weapon is!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the protective jade pendant he was wearing. He originally planned to take it out to show off, but Lao Jiu next to Yi Yi Gao also had a more powerful magic weapon, which also allowed Lao Si to more intuitively understand what real magic is. It’s awesome, just let Lao Jiu show it off!

When Zhu Yue heard this, he didn't waste any time and directly showed the effect of the Wu Doukai after it was activated!

When he saw the strange red beads embedded in Lao Jiu's body one by one, and making Lao Jiu's whole body turn black, Zhu Di was immediately stunned!

What the hell kind of method is this?

Is this really something a normal person can do?

However, it was not over yet. Under Zhu Di's stunned gaze, Zhu Yuanzhang directly drew out the Emperor's Sword prepared at the side and chopped off Lao Jiu's arm without any warning!

"Bah!"

With a crisp sound, the Emperor's Sword broke in response!

Zhu Di's eyes widened!

Before he could even react, he saw the moment the Emperor Sword came into contact with Lao Jiu, a burst of sparks burst out. Not only did nothing happen to Lao Jiu, but the Emperor Sword was directly disconnected!

Invulnerable?

How can you play with this?

"Is this a magic weapon?"

Zhu Di's voice began to tremble when he spoke!

Lao Jiu can even refine such an invulnerable magic weapon. No wonder the old man said that he was defeated by Lao Jiu in the end!

How can you beat this and become a ghost?

However, what made Zhu Di collapse even more was that Lao Jiu also personally showed him what strength was. He put away his black armor and returned to his normal state. He took out a copper coin and lightly touched it with two fingers. With a gentle squeeze, the copper coin was crushed into a ball, just like a ball of paper!

Zhu Di could even hear himself swallowing with difficulty!

Everything he saw tonight has overturned his understanding!
