Chapter 486 Heating Problem (2)
Qing Shu didn't worry about this, because she was mentally prepared.How can it be so easy to reclaim wasteland and improve the soil!This is not something that can be accomplished in one or two years. It will take longer and need to be done slowly.She has no shortage of labor, no money to transform the wasteland, just patience.

On the wasteland, she stood in front of a row of 41 green brick houses completed yesterday afternoon, feeling very excited.

Guanshi Zhang accompanied them, "Miss, most of the doors and windows have been finished. The day after tomorrow, the craftsmen will come and install the doors and windows one by one." After that, they will be ventilated for half a month or a month, and people can live there after the moisture is removed.

"When will Master Zhang come?" She asked eagerly.

"Come over early in the morning the day after tomorrow." Guanshi Zhang replied, it was agreed five days ago.

"Wait no more. Go and check to see if all of Master Liu's people have left. Also, call Yuan Bao over, keep the people I brought here, and try to avoid the others." She couldn't wait any longer. She will know the result today.

Steward Zhang hurried to check and came back not long after.He reported that Master Liu's people did not come back today after they left together yesterday.In addition, all the laborers were weeding the fields, and none of the people who were busy at the thatched cottage came here.Yuan Bao also called him, and he will come right away.

She nodded, beckoned the people following to go left, and then stopped outside the door of the middlemost room in a row of 41 rooms.She glanced in, walked on, and went into the room to the left of it.Because the doors and windows have not been installed, there is basically nothing in the house, and it looks empty.She moved over, and easily found a valve on the round iron pipe installed against the wall in the room, and grabbed its iron handle, "Look at it. Twist it like this, it's off. Twist it back, it's on." Master Zhang said something, you have to remember it well." She took her hand away and wiped off a little dust on the palm of her hand, "Guard Zhang, the plumbing next door is also safe, right?"

Manager Zhang took a step forward and replied, "Miss, it's all set up. According to Master Zhang's instructions, this room and the one next to the left, only these two have all the pipes and radiators installed."

She ordered, "Send someone over there and turn off the valve next door."

Immediately, servants went over to close the valve.

She walked out of this room and went to the middle room.This room was built larger than the other forty rooms, and the corresponding doors and windows were also larger.The most eye-catching things in the house are the interlaced pipes, two strange large iron stoves, and a wooden step-like ladder three feet wide and four feet high.She had the ladder pushed across and against the left wall.In the eyes of everyone puzzled, she stepped on the wooden steps of the ladder and walked up.

She stood on the highest step of the wooden ladder, just in time to see something like a wooden sink.This sink is different from other sinks. It is fixed on the wall at a high place, and there is a large round hole at the bottom, which is connected to the thick iron pipe below.At this time, there was nothing in the wooden sink. She turned her face to the person below and said, "The valve of the first room next door has been opened, and water can be filled here. Master Zhang said that water should be added to the bottom of the sink. You can’t add less, and you can’t add more.” Then he pointed to a large iron furnace below, “After adding water, a fire will start here.”

Zhang Guanshi, who was holding his breath, and others hurriedly persuaded her to come down, saying that it would be dangerous.

Only then did she realize that she had made a small mistake.It is really inappropriate for a girl like her to stand on the top in front of so many people.Besides, with so many people under her command, she just pointed at anyone to go up, and there was no need to climb up by herself.

Xiaojuan, who followed her up, quickly helped her down.Then the master and servant went outside.

Everyone moved.Find buckets, look for poles, carry water, carry firewood and so on.When the water came, Steward Ding stood on the wooden ladder, took the bucket handed up by the person below, and filled the sink with water.Adding water, hearing the sound of water flowing in the iron pipe, everyone looked nervous.After adding three buckets of water, there was water at the bottom of the sink.Steward Ding shouted that it was all right, and a fire was lit in the big iron furnace.

Steward Zhang and the others who stayed in the house did not come out, either watching around the big iron stove or studying the suspended pipes in the house.

After burning the firewood for about a quarter of an hour, Yuan Bao and others who were observing in the next room ran out happily, "Miss, it's hot, the pipe is hot, and the iron sheet is also hot."

Her eyes lit up, and she hurried in to confirm.Warm pipes, warm iron radiators, it was nice.It was successful, Tu Nuan was successful. "Yuanbao, go quickly and open the valve in the room next to you. Also, tell them to add more water, quickly."

Yuan Bao agreed loudly and ran out.Seeing Guanshi Ding coming out of the big iron stove room, he shouted for more water, and ran into the next door to open the valve.

In this way, two more buckets of water were added to the sink.Those who started the fire continued to burn, and kept throwing firewood into the big iron furnace.

After a while, Yuan Bao cheered again, shouting that the pipes in this room were also hot.

Seeing everyone chatting and laughing around Tu Nuan, she smiled reassuringly, and called Guanshi Ding aside to talk, "Be more careful about this matter, tell Master Zhang, and make iron pipes and iron sheets for eighteen more houses." After you come out, you can install the other [-] rooms with this stove first. After you install it, try to light the fire first to see if one stove can heat up [-] rooms. If there is no problem, the other [-] rooms will also be installed. Come out, and hurry up and install it. If it doesn’t work, see how many rooms a furnace can heat up.”

Steward Ding accepted the job with a serious face, "Miss, don't worry, when you get back to town, I'll go over and talk to Master Zhang right away."

When the water in the earth heating pipe boiled, the sound of water returning and the steam rising in the house, Qing Shu happily announced: go back home.She kept laughing all the way back, now it's all right, the problem of heating facilities in winter has been solved, and after adding soil heating pipes to the design drawing of her new house, she can start construction.If all goes well, she will be able to move here with the whole family in winter.

She went into the mansion and got off the carriage. When she saw Qingyang who was welcoming her, she couldn't hold back for a moment, and rushed forward to hug him in front of everyone, "Xiaoyang, Xiaoyang, sister is so happy, hehe..."

I didn't expect my sister to be like this in front of people. Although Qingyang was puzzled, he was also happy when his sister was happy, so he asked, "What good happened? Tell Xiaoyang, tell Xiaoyang quickly."

Cough cough... Butler Gu coughed a few times, the purpose was to remind the master who lost his temper to get back to normal quickly.

Qing Shu came back to her senses, she didn't dare to look at Gu Butler's face, she let go of her hands and didn't dare to hug Qingyang again, but dragged Qingyang and fled back to her yard.

Qingshu dragged Qingyang into the inner room, and couldn't wait to tell the story of Tu Nuan's success, and then the two siblings cheered and jumped on the ground like crazy.
