I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 646 Let them understand

Cement should not be wetted before it is used... This is the official interpretation of cement.But now, in such a heavy rainy day, the officials actually ordered the soldiers to put the cement from the cement factory in Huazhou into the rail carriage...

The tents are ready, as long as the officials don't want to blindly rescue the people of Huazhou, the rest, follow the officials!This is the thinking of the accompanying ministers... It is mainly the result of how many times they opposed the officials, and in the end they were all slapped in the face.Even Han Qi didn't say a word, isn't it just to make the soldiers a little tired?It doesn't matter, just play if you want to play.

To a certain extent, the fact that the new army is executing the orders of the officials really makes people feel out-and-out.

The soldiers in the past would also carry out orders, but the efficiency and atmosphere couldn't be compared at all.

Such a scene and atmosphere made even the accompanying veterans a little excited.

Tens of thousands of people lined up, one person after another, packed the cement in cloth bags from the Huazhou Cement Plant into bags of sample carriages...

They all forgot about the heavy rain, and just carried out the order ecstatically.

"Officials, there is no precedent for the imperial court to invade people's property! Now, the owner of Huazhou Cement is under the control of the supervisory office, and the new army is mobilized to move its inventory. This is not appropriate for accusation!"

Han Qi could see that the officials simply wanted to seize the cement.

Without saying hello to others, not only entered the Huazhou cement factory, but also loaded all the cement directly into the truck without the factory's consent.

"The Huazhou dam is the only dam in Gyeonggi-do that has not been purchased from the factory city cement. I asked the supervisory government to control the Huazhou officials and seized the Huazhou cement factory. It is suspected that the Huazhou cement is shoddy and used for dam construction. ..."

"The official family..."

Han Qi really didn't know what to say.In this name, the imperial court invaded other people's property...

"I would like to ask all the ministers and workers, if the cause of the Huazhou dam collapse is caused by substandard cement, how should the owner of the Huazhou cement factory and the officials of the Huazhou government deal with it?"

The dam breaks, the lives of the people of a state are ruined, and the entire Huazhou is destroyed... Is it enough to just seal up and confiscate property?

"Official, this is just speculation after all..."

"Mr. Han Ge, when was the first time I let you see cement? What about the situation after it solidifies? It will be clear later!"

When Zhao Xi arrived at Huazhou Cement Factory, the cement here was filled with water and mud immediately...

In fact, when Zhao Xi saw Huazhou Cement, he basically understood it.

Although the current earthen cement is not as strong as that of later generations, it is not as strong as bluestone, but it is much stronger than ordinary bricks.

Moreover, in terms of color, Zhao Xi couldn't tell the difference between the two.

But the cement in Huazhou, Zhao Xi can see the earthy yellow color!

At this time, the cement, earthen furnace, uncomplicated formula, simple process, and firing are not too difficult.Otherwise, it would not have been possible for those Xiang troops.

Even so, basic ingredients are needed.Such as bluestone, such as coal.In the Central Plains, to some extent, both bluestone and coal need to be transported in from other places.

At the same time, due to the sale of cement formula and technology in the workshop city, cement factories are almost all over the country and state capitals, resulting in no high profits.

It was impossible for Zhao Xi and his ministers to accompany the soldiers to load the cement all the time, so they returned to the disaster relief headquarters.

"Zhongzheng, move it up!"

Wang Zhongzheng knew what the officials told him to move.He didn’t understand when the officials ordered him to bring a bag of cement from Workshop City when he set out; he didn’t understand when the officials asked him to mix the cement when he arrived in Huazhou; ; At this time, he completely understood.

The cement in the two copper basins was brought up and placed upside down in the center of the headquarters tent.

"Everyone, you can compare the difference between the two!"

Zhao Xi didn't bother to try it, and saw through it at a glance.

Everyone was puzzled, so they all tried to identify it.

How to identify this thing?It's actually very simple, you can just stomp your feet, or smash it with a weapon...

how could this be?Isn't it all cement? Why does the block formed by a pot of cement not change no matter how hard you try, while the other block is easily broken...

The ministers and workers looked at the officials, waiting to clarify their doubts...~
"This pot is firm and unchanged, it is the cement in the workshop city that has solidified. And the other one is Huazhou cement!"

Not fools!
"Officials, if you don't kill, it won't be enough for civilians to be angry!"

"Officials, I think the owner of Huazhou Cement should be sentenced to death in front of the people of Huazhou!"

"This is the real culprit!"

"The imperial court should completely shut down Huazhou Cement to prevent such situations from happening again."

……

It is clear that this kind of cement dam, which can be broken only by manpower, cannot bear the pressure of the high-level Yellow River water at all.It was an accident that Huazhou did not break the dam...

"Actually, the furnace of Huazhou Cement is fine, the formula is fine, and the cement that comes out of the furnace is fine! These have been inspected by the Imperial City Department and the Supervisory Office."

"The real reason is that Huazhou Cement Factory, because of the purchase of raw materials, the profit is not high, so they mixed loess into the cement..."

Although Zhao Xi didn't get it right, he guessed it was about the same.

Compared with the original rammed earth used for dam building and straw mud used for construction, they thought that even the cement mixed with loess would be stronger than those.

They don't understand that cement is not as good as rammed earth when there are debris...

Zhao Xi has such a memory, remembering that later generations would pick out the messy things when mixing cement...

"As for how to deal with it, I believe that the supervisory yamen will make them understand!"

Zhao Xi is really annoyed!
The official family bit the death word very hard, and everyone knew that the official family was really going to kill him.

Although all the ministers and workers are well aware that the Huazhou cement factory will never be pure, there must be a mixture of local gentry, and it is very likely that local officials and courtiers whose ancestral home is Huazhou are also mixed.

So what?At this time, no one talked too much.Self-interest and disaster for the whole city are more important than others, and I know in my heart.

……

"Report to the officials, to all the ministers and workers, Xu Mo, the director of Huazhou Cement, confessed that Huazhou Cement's profits from building dams, 15% and [-] yuan of profits, are all dedicated to Zhizhou Linghu Jiu..."

"[-]% of the profits will be shared by relevant officials such as push officials and judges!"

Fan Chunren reported it with gritted teeth. From the moment he saw the investigation report to the time he returned to the headquarters, his anger has not subsided!
Why not kill scholar-bureaucrats!If such a beast is not killed, what is the national prestige?
Unfortunately, he thought that the ministers would be very angry, just like he heard the discussion just now.

As a result, after the specific report arrived, the entire headquarters was so quiet.

"Chief Inspector, I order the Supervision Yamen to cooperate with the Imperial City Division to tie up all the officials and merchants involved in the dam break."

"Right now! Remember, there must be no protection, and they must all bow down to Huazhou City..."

I don't kill you, I just let you die to understand!
