Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 117 Wang Qinian's Experience ([-])

After leaving the Qianhu Office and arriving at the city wall, Wang Qinian saw something new again.

These people seem to be very motivated. They mix bags of things called "cement" with yellow sand, and then pile up regular red bricks, and use the mixed cement to bind them together. This is a method of construction. He had never seen it before, and the things he used were beyond his comprehension.

He bent down and took out a few red bricks from the basket. After comparing them, he was surprised to find that these red bricks were the same size and not bad at all.

What kind of forging technique is this?
Not far from the construction site, he also saw bundles of steel bars.After these folks have built a place, they have to cover these steel bars with cement, and then cover them with cement.He walked a few steps and found that some places had dried up, so he went up and knocked, and it was unexpectedly firm.And after the whole wall dries up, it looks like a huge boulder. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe that there is such a thing in this world!

If this thing is used to pave roads and build walls, the speed is unimaginable...

The 95 red bricks that Zuofu bought from Taobao cost 6 cents a piece. Including the cement, steel bars and labor costs, the conversion cost is only a million dollars.It sounds a lot, but think about it, if you build a city wall out of thin air, even future generations will not be able to do it, okay?

It can be so cheap, the main reason is cheap labor.These people are quite simple, and they are willing to work if they have a stutter.Many people are also quite calculating.Working on the construction site does not include food, but also some rice and salt, which is much better than farming!

These days, the family doesn't have much land, but there are so many people, and they feel that the city wall is too small to get such a good job!At least build one tens of miles long and wide, so that everyone can eat free meals for a long time!

Therefore, the labor costs in this era are basically negligible, and what Zuo Fu pays is only some material costs.There are a lot of building materials like this on Taobao, and you can get a discount if you buy more, so she didn't think too much about it, and bought a lot of them at once, thinking that if there are any surplus, it would be good to pave the road.

Now that you don't run away, you have to manage it well. If you don't make it into an iron wall, you will lose face to the traversers, right?
I bought some related books on Taobao, and found some craftsmen who knew how to build in the city. After instilling the basic things into it, these craftsmen showed their skills.Zuo Fu didn't need to think about some things, they would think of them naturally.

There are many people in Jingkou, and the labor force is also sufficient.After the news of Zuo Dayou's defeat of the Qing army came out, the people who fled these days also slowly came back, and the speed of the construction naturally accelerated.

Wang Qinian walked around the construction site, then found a place to sit down, and watched these peasants work under the sun.

He observed all afternoon and found that these people worked very hard without feeling oppressed at all.In the past, when the imperial court recruited civilians, which time did it not cause anger and resentment?But these people are fine, and seem to enjoy working here.It's fine to do it by yourself, but there are still people who invite relatives and friends to come over.

Just like this, Wang Qinian saw several people bring their relatives to report to the foreman.Once hired, these people are as happy as Chinese New Year, firmly guarding the employment certificate, which is quite similar to a passport, in their hearts, as if they have picked up a big treasure, which is very rare.

The golden crow fell to the west, and the night gradually fell. Just as Wang Qinian was about to leave, the dark sky suddenly became brighter.He raised his head subconsciously, and couldn't help being dumbfounded by this look!

What it is? !

Only then did he discover that there were many long poles erected on the construction site, and the poles seemed to be inlaid with colored glaze. At this moment, the colored glaze was emitting light, illuminating the dark ground quite brightly, as if it were daytime.

"This is……"

Wang Qinian's three views were subverted again, while Wang Er beside him turned pale with fright.

"My lord, everyone said that Qing Yidao is a fairy. Well, this lamp has no oil, and no one has seen it lit. Why, why did it turn on by itself?"

The peasant husband who was working nearby laughed when he heard this, "My lord, this is called a sun lamp. After the Taoist master made it, he gathered the sun's rays into this lamp box. When night falls, it will light up by itself."

"Then, isn't that, isn't it..."

Wang Er stuttered.

Where can a mortal use such unimaginable means?This must be the method of the immortal family!

"Inside the sunlight gathering lamp box?"

Rao is Wang Qinian who has read a lot of poetry and books, but now he is stupid looking at this solar lamp.

After entering this Jingkou, he didn't understand one thing!The soldiers are dressed in weird clothes, the fabrics are weird, the plates in the cafeteria are weird, the materials used to build the city are weird... now it's even weirder!

Can the sun's light be gathered to wait for the lamp? !

"The county lord said that when the wall is built, let us build the road. With this cement, the roads in the town can be filled with cement directly, which is very convenient! When the road is built, it will be in the town. We have installed this solar lamp in our house, and we will not be afraid of the dark at night, and those friends who study are very happy! This thing is better than candles, and it is bright!"

The solar street lights worth more than [-] yuan on Taobao can be used continuously for seven days even in cloudy and rainy days. Zuo Fu has no reason to let this thing go.In the past, it was necessary to hide clumsiness, but now it is necessary to carry out construction. Naturally, this infrastructure cannot be left behind.

And the installation of this thing is very simple, even an illiterate can install it after learning it twice. The solar panel on the lamp directly converts energy, which is an excellent choice for her!Now that the people of Jingkou are still in a state of tension, making some "miracles" from time to time is also a good way to stabilize people's hearts!
Is there any reason to let go of such an affordable thing that can also drive work efficiency?
And it can also be advertised. Naturally, those rich families can’t read books on the side of the road like mud legs, so getting some solar lights in their garden is the best choice!

In this way, Zuofu can make money again, and the money stripped from these wealthy households will be invested in the construction of Jingkou, so that everyone can benefit, which is a happy thing for everyone.

Wang Qinian was dizzy, the deeper he went into Jingkou, the more confused he became.Everything was beyond his cognition, so much so that he had the idea that he was an idiot.

He stood there, looking at the street lights, his mind became very dazed.

Is he dreaming?
Just when he was in a trance, the sound of wheels came from his ears, the aroma drifted over, and a full of breath sounded, "Folks, dinner is served! The fish we eat today is sea fish! Go to the county magistrate and give it to everyone. I got it here, green fish, you can’t eat it on weekdays, vinegar and sugar are added in it, tsk tsk, this fish is very fat, it’s so delicious!!”
