I am engaged in construction in Datang

The village has produced quicklime, and the brick kiln is easy to build. Now all we need is the materials for the support.

There were no steel bars at that time. Li Yin's steel production at that time could not meet the consumption, and it had to rely on imports. Now we can only use bamboo instead. As long as we find good bamboo, the tensile strength can also reach 300 amps, which is not necessarily worse than steel bars. The only drawback is that the service life is too short.

Now Australia is full of aboriginals, cough...

Li Yin has some ideas.

Female village.

"Engineer Wang." Li Yin held Wang Dahai's hands tightly and said, "This is a historic change in the history of architecture. Now it all depends on you."

During this period, Wang Dahai did nothing during the day and night except reading books and studying, then learned about cement and did small experiments constantly.

In order to save time for bathing, he even cut his hair short.

"Don't worry, Master!" Wang Dahai also held Li Yin's hands tightly, tears in his eyes. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time!

"If I mess this up, my Arya will never get married!"

Wang Erya: “…”

"Sister Li Yin, I want to change my name!"

Li Yin rubbed Wang Erya's head and said, "We'll talk about it later."

She actually wanted to give Arya a big name, but was always delayed by other things, and it was dragged on until now.

Zhao Chengyi was called Zhao Shitou before. One day, Zhao Erniu brought his baby to her to ask for help in changing his name. Now his nickname is Shitou, and people in the village also call him Xiao Shitou.

"The time has come, let's pay tribute!" Feng Sanxi was afraid of a failure, so he copied the old man and put together a weird opening ceremony.

Li Yin led the 70 people in the village to bow and burn incense.

This is the farm she bought, with an area of ​​about 800 acres. It is not as big as a farm, but it is more than enough to build a comprehensive school.

The tenant who was inexplicably sold in the village has been recruited by Li Yin and has become a small screw in the countless workshops in the women's village. He is provided with accommodation, works six days a week and has one day off, and pays 200 wen for food every month, which includes three meals a day with oil and fish. He is paid 40 wen a day, and if he works five days a day, he will not have to worry about food for the month.

At that time, the daily income of ordinary people in Chang'an City was only 20 to 60 coins. Women who did needlework earned less, while men who did manual labor earned more. They had to get up early and work hard from dusk, and it was easy for them to get sick from fatigue.

The Nuzhuang workshop is good. The work is not harmful to the body and the pay is high. There are four fixed working hours every day, in two shifts. The morning shift is from Chenshi to Shenshi (7:00-15:00), and the night shift is from Xushi to Yinshi (19:00-3:00). There is also half an hour for lunch.

If you want to make more money, you can work overtime during the rest of the time!

If you work overtime for a maximum of two hours a day, you will be paid an extra 30 coins, which is equivalent to earning 70 coins a day!

There are also piece-rate bonuses. The more you produce, the more bonuses you will get when you get your salary. If you don't take leave, you will also receive a 200-cent attendance bonus.

You can earn more than two strings of coins a month, which is twice as much as other jobs! (At that time, the income of people around Chang'an City was higher than that of other places, with an annual income of 16 or 17 strings of coins.)

The workers were happy and Li Yin was happy too.

At that time, no one understood what surplus value was.

Another advantage of this land is that it is close to Zhuangzi, only two miles away, and is also close to the capital, only about seven miles away.

I'll ask around if the farms are for sale later...

"Come on, let's lay the foundation first." Wang Dahai began to lead the team to work.

The stadium and the buildings on it were built first...

The main thing is that there is no need to worry about problems, and the money can be made quickly.

The playground is 400 meters in lap and has everything, including a basketball court, a volleyball court, etc.

Li Yin used cement directly, without using bamboo, so there is no need to worry about the short service life. She can rebuild it when a plastic track is available in the future.

For now, we’ll just have to make do with cement.

The football field inside is still a grass field. Li Yin plans to level it a bit, plant some dogtooth grass, and then hold the game.

There are stands all around, no seats, just large steps.

After the construction started, Li Yin returned to the village. Snacks are now popular in Chang'an, and the novel packaging is sure to attract attention.

Li Yin never thought of depriving people of their money or forcing them to death.

It’s okay for the big families, but what about the small families that make a living by selling paper?

These things about aristocratic families cannot be eradicated.

Li Yin was not in such a good situation in her previous life. Almost all the famous businesses were family-owned, and the children of officials almost all worked for the government.

Things are better now than they were back then. Nowadays, ordinary people are happy as long as they have enough food and clothing. The rich don’t have much entertainment to do and can only take the imperial examinations.

Otherwise, in the future, she would definitely be called a black-hearted capitalist.

Wang Dahai is short of people to do manual labor.

"Uncle Sanxi." Li Yin folded the paper and handed it to Feng Sanxi: "According to the requirements on the paper, go to the slums tomorrow to pick some men. Treat those who are sick, and bring those who can't be cured to me. If I can't cure them, I'll give them some subsidies. Take care of the rest and set up an engineering team in the village. Let Wang Dahai take care of his apprentices as soon as possible."

Feng Sanxi took the paper and said, "Master, Zhao Chengren and Wang Shun came to the manor again today. They didn't buy bean curd sticks, but asked for wrapping paper for snacks."

"Don't worry about them, Uncle Sanxi. You can sell rock sugar in Liuweizhai. The price should be cheap, but the quantity should be limited. Give those people a warning first." Li Yin thought about it. Although rock sugar is a strategic material, its role nowadays is not as great as the sugar-coated bullets in later generations. It is not as good as a piece of soap that can kill bacteria.

As long as it can be sold, there is no need to treat it as a luxury item and make money from overseas.

"Master, Manager Liu Quanshu is here today."

"What did he come to ask?" Li Yin remembered the cow that the other party had lent to the farm before, and wondered whether she should reveal a little bit.

"He... brought two baskets of black fungus and white fungus to Zhuangzi."

"Next time people come, invite them to stay at our farm for a meal." Li Yin said. Nowadays, mountain products such as black fungus and white fungus have to be found and picked in the mountains. The planting technology is immature and they are almost non-existent. They are all tributes.

It's thoughtful of them to be able to get two big baskets.

"I wanted to stay, but I couldn't stop him." Feng Sanxi said. Manager Liu seemed to be very busy every day.

The next day, Xuanzheng Hall.

"Your Majesty, I was happy to hear about something a few days ago, called a biogas digester, which can collect waste materials such as human and animal feces and urine, leftovers and cold meat, and produce biogas in a special environment. The biogas can be ignited for cooking and heating, and the waste residues can be taken out to fertilize the land and feed poultry. So I went to observe it, and I saw that the magical object was just as the rumors said." Fang Xuanling came out and made a remonstrance.

"The owner of the sacred object has a great heart and is willing to pass on the blueprints. Your Majesty, this is a powerful weapon for the country. I implore Your Majesty to issue an order to order the officials of each county to help the villages under their jurisdiction to build biogas digesters."

"I second the motion." Xiao Yu and Wei Zheng stood up to express their approval.

"Yes."

"Report——"

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Wei has reached the front line and will engage in battle soon."

"The pharmacist is old, but he still works hard for the Tang Dynasty day and night. I am very pleased. I appreciate the pharmacist's hard work and great contributions, and he deserves a reward!"

Li Shimin thought about the situation on the front line and couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that it's easy to attack a city, but difficult to defend it. Do you have any good ideas?"

There was silence below.

We fought last year and won, but as soon as our troops withdrew, the enemy came back following us.

What can there be in Tuyuhun? The land is barren, and there is no need to waste so many people there!
