I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister

After everything was arranged properly, everyone immediately let go of their arms and started working.

Of the 100 million disaster victims, except for about 30 old, weak, sick and disabled, all of them came out to work.

Strong and strong men are responsible for the hard work on the construction site.Women who are not able to do physical work are in charge of logistics, cooking water and cooking, etc., a scene in full swing!

A week passed quickly.

The empress and all the officials were very curious about how Lin Beifan was doing, so they went out of the city to take a look.

As a result, there was a sudden sense of seeing Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. Everything was new and she didn't understand anything.

"Aiqing, come and explain to me what these things do!"

"Okay, Your Majesty!"

Lin Beifan first brought the empress and all the officials to a steaming place.

"Your Majesty, this is the workshop for making cement. Chen simply calls it the cement workshop! All the cement we need for urban construction is produced from here!"

"What kind of cement are you talking about, can you let me have a look?"

"Of course!"

Lin Beifan led the crowd forward, pointing to piles of dusty dirt, and said, "This is cement!"

Everyone was shocked: "Is it cement? This is...too ugly, right?"

"Don't look at it as ugly, but it's very useful!"

The empress asked curiously, "How do you use this cement?"

"This cement has to be mixed with sediment and water in a certain proportion, and then it becomes extremely strong! It's useless to talk, you follow me!"

Lin Beifan brought the crowd to a flat place with dingy bricks on it.

"This is where bricks are made, and we're making bricks out of cement!"

"Bricks made of cement?" Everyone wondered again.

Lin Beifan explained: "First make bricks, then build a house! Compared with traditional bricks, our bricks made of cement have an unparalleled advantage!"

0 ················································

"What advantage?"

"The speed is fast, saving time, labor and money!" Lin Beifan said with a smile: "In the past, when we made bricks, we first excavated the clay, and after about half a year of open-air accumulation, let the sun expose to the sun and let the rain erode, making the inside After decomposing and loosening, and then going through certain procedures, only fine and dense pure soil is left!"

"Then, the pure soil and water were repeatedly hammered into thick mud before they were made into brick embryos. After drying in the sun, they were fired in a kiln! After more than ten days of firing, the bricks that could be built into walls were finally formed. brick!"

"The whole process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it costs a lot of charcoal!"

Everyone listened and nodded involuntarily.

"But our cement bricks are different!"

"It takes about three days for us to produce cement!"

"After the cement is produced, as long as the cement, sand, and water are mixed in a certain proportion to form a clay shape, bricks can be made according to the current mold and placed in a dry place to expose them to the sun and let them solidify! It takes 2 to 3 days , can form bricks that can build walls! Its quality is not much different from the bricks fired before!"

Everyone's face changed.

 …  

Lin Beifan grabbed two dried and solidified cement bricks from the ground, and said with a smile, "Take a look, how are these bricks different from the bricks you usually see?"

An old minister pondered for a moment, and said: "Except for the different colors, there is not much difference in the degree of firmness!"

"This is another great advantage of cement. It solidifies quickly and is very strong!" Lin Beifan said with a smile: "With such bricks, it is naturally much easier and cheaper to build a house!"

In everyone's heart, there is a little more expectation.

"Everyone, please follow me!"

Lin Beifan led everyone forward again, and came to a row of bungalows.

Lin Beifan said proudly: "This is a house built with cement. It took five days in total!"

"It was built in five days?" Everyone was shocked.

"How to build it in 5 days?" someone asked.

"As you can see, transport the finished cement bricks, build them up one by one, and reinforce them with cement! In this way, it will be built naturally!" Lin Beifan laughed.

"Don't you need to dig a trench to build a foundation?" the Minister of the Ministry of Industry asked.

"Yes, but you don't need to dig so deep, it can be solved in half a day! Because all the houses here are connected by cement, relying on each other, as stable as Mount Tai!"

"Don't you need a pillar?" The Minister of the Ministry of Industry asked again.

Lin Beifan shook his head: "No need! Because the walls built with cement are very strong! So we skipped this procedure and built the walls directly! It took a total of two days, one day to build the wall, and one day to wait for the cement to dry and solidify !"

"Then how to cap it?" Minister of the Ministry of Industry asked again.

"This is the easiest, everyone look up!"

Everyone looked up, only to see a few large crossbars above the house, and the cement wall was still on top.

"After the wall is finished, we will put a few crossbars on the roof! Then, we will spread the cement boards that have already been made on it, and then use cement to solidify them! The whole process will not take half a day!"

"So, give it another day, wait for the slate on the roof to dry and solidify, and you're done!"

"This is the process of building a house. You only need to make cement, and you can make cement into bricks and cement boards, and you can stack them according to the process of building a house. The whole process is as simple as stacking wood!"

Lin Beifan smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, and my lords, are you satisfied with the speed of building the house?"

The empress and all the officials were shocked!predict.

Chapter 226 Create a special economic zone in another world!

How could they be more than satisfied with building a big and strong house in 4 days?

It was simply a shock, a shock from the heart!

There are no adjectives that can describe the shock in their hearts!

"It's amazing!" An old official's mouth trembled in shock: "It takes only 4 days to build a durable and good house! In this way, why can't the common people afford housing?"

"Yes, and the process of making cement is so simple, much easier than blue bricks and red bricks, saving time and money! People bite their teeth and can build a house for themselves!"

"No wonder Mr. Lin dares to boast! With such a sharp weapon as cement, how could it not be possible?"

"With cement, building a house can be so easy!"

……

Everyone praised again and again.

Lin Beifan said humbly: "My lords have praised you, I am ashamed to be an official!"

The empress was also very shocked. Only by seeing it with her own eyes can she know the magic of cement.

Building a house is so simple, how about using it to build bridges and pave roads, or use it to repair city walls?

Use it to build other projects, such as water conservancy projects?

I don't want to know, I'm shocked when I think about it!

If cement is used in these projects, how many materials will be saved, how much labor will be saved, and how much food will be saved!

　, Mo Hong first started, how much can you do with the saved money and food?

For the imperial court, this is definitely a thing that has more advantages than disadvantages, and it will definitely enhance Dawu's strength quickly!

No wonder Ai Qing said that this cement is an artifact that is not inferior to big balloons and hovercraft!

Looking at it now, it really is!

The empress looked at Lin Beifan softly.

This little villain gave me another big surprise!

I really don't know how to reward him!

"This cement can be called an artifact of state stability!"

The Empress said very excitedly: "With cement, everyone has the opportunity to live in a good and durable house! Moreover, cement can be used in roads, bridges, city walls and other projects! As long as cement is laid, it can become very strong. In this way, how can I not be strong in my great martial arts?"

"Your Majesty's words are very true!" Baiguan smiled and nodded.

"But Aiqing, you said before that the house can be built in three days, but now it takes an extra day!" the empress laughed.

Lin Beifan replied calmly: "The reason why it takes an extra day is because everyone is using cement to build a house for the first time, and they are not familiar with it, so they move slowly! After everyone is familiar with the use of cement, the foundation can be dug in one day. Build the wall, wait another day for the wall to solidify, and cap the roof on the third day, three days is just enough!"

Everyone smiled and nodded in agreement.

"In addition, our cement factory has just been built, and the cement output is limited! When our cement factory is expanded to produce more cement, the speed of building houses will be faster! We can build thousands or even ten thousand houses a day, No problem at all!"

"It must be expanded, and the imperial court fully supports it!" the empress said loudly.

Then, Lin Beifan led the crowd to continue the tour, amazed and amazed all the way.

I am more and more confident about what Lin Beifan said, to make housing affordable for millions of disaster victims within two months, and to build a city within three months.

Even if it doesn't work for three months, it can be done in a year!

Isn't it amazing enough to build a city in a year?

Finally, Lin Beifan led the crowd to several large pictures.

"Aiqing, what is this?" The empress was puzzled.

Lin Beifan smiled: "Your Majesty, and my lords, please take a look! This is the rendering of the city built by my minister!"

The empress and all the officials saw it and were shocked!

I saw that in the painting, the houses were row upon row, neat and tidy!

The roads are wide and straight, interconnected!

The city wall is tall and strong, which can resist foreign enemies!

How to describe this feeling?

Just like modern people, looking at the city of technology in the future!

"Aiqing... can this really be realized?" The empress was so excited that she was a little incoherent.

"Of course!" Lin Beifan was also very excited, and he opened his arms and said loudly: "Just give me three months, and this city of miracles will rise from the ground here and will not fall down!"

"Okay!" the empress excitedly applauded.

At this time, Qian Yuanshen, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, stood up with a sad face: "Your Majesty, it is good! But if we continue to build like this, our imperial court's money and food will not be able to support it at all! Especially food, it is really not enough!"

Everyone was splashed with cold water in an instant, and the joy was gone.

Qian Yuanshen turned his head to look at Lin Beifan: "Master Lin, you said that this city can be built without spending the court's resources, but why is there still no movement?"

Everyone turned to look at Lin Beifan to see how he would answer.

"If Mr. Qian doesn't ask, I will tell you!" Lin Beifan said with a smile: "Although our court has no money and food, many wealthy merchant families have it! Can't we let them take out the money?"

"No, no!" The veterans shook their heads one after another: "This kind of thing is against morality, and it is not in line with the law! You have to do this unless you have to, otherwise the officials will force the people to rebel!"

Lin Beifan made a gesture of reaching out to take out the money, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lords, I can let them take out the money and food on their own initiative! And they are very active, scrambling to be the first, impatient, for fear that it will be too late!"

"Oh?" Everyone was shocked and curious.

To actually let the wealthy businessmen and aristocratic families take the initiative to pay?

And scrambling to be the first, can't wait, for fear of being late?

They really don't believe it!

You know, this group of people are not profitable, they just put money in their pockets!

If there is no big benefit, I will never pay out!

"Aiqing, what are you going to do?" the Empress asked.

"Your Majesty, look at how good the quality of this cement is. Once solidified, it is comparable to stone! How useful it is, it can be used to build houses, repair bridges and repair roads, and it can be used in any project! The most important thing is, the price It's not expensive, and if you sell it, you say, who wouldn't want it!" Lin Beifan was triumphant.

"Selling cement? No, no, no, this is a national treasure and should be used by the state. How can it be sold to private individuals?"

"Yes, it must not be sold, and others must be prohibited from using and producing it!"
