Chapter 184: Gradually prosper

what?
Liu Yi walked on the road paved by suspended wooden planks, walked around in Zhuangzi, and didn't notice any difference. The so-called Five Elements Kili feel like a deceptive one.
After two rounds, I did n’t feel anything special. Liu Yi was disappointed and paced back to his courtyard. His courtyard was built according to the style of later generations and the architectural characteristics of this era. The first floor is the kitchen and bathroom, the second floor is where Deng and the maids live, and the third floor is his and Lu Lingqi ’s bedroom and fitness room. The window is opened, facing the vast Dongting Lake, The scenery of fish ponds, bamboo forests and lakes has a feeling of facing the sea and blooming in spring.
"Wang ~"
When Wang Cai saw Liu Yi coming back, he screamed happily, swaying his tail to Liu Yi, and rubbed his head intimately with his head.
"Sir is back?" Deng, who was preparing to cook a fire in the kitchen, greeted Liu Yi when he saw Liu Yi coming back.
"Huh." Liu Yi smiled: "Mrs. sister-in-law's meal is brought back, what do you eat today?"
"Mrs. wants to eat fish, so people will go fishing in the fish pond." Deng's smile.
"Mrs. Sister's fish is absolutely awesome, it seems to be a blessing tonight." Liu Yi said this, handing her robe to the welcoming maid, and wanted to say something. Suddenly heard a cry from behind.
He looked back quickly, but saw Deng stumble back a few steps, leaning against the wall, in the fire in front of him, the flames burst into the old high.
"Sister-in-law is also proficient in this way, how could you be so careless today?" Liu Yi was a little funny to prepare to help Deng take out the carbon stone in the stove, but found that the temperature was a little scary and a little surprised: "How much firewood did the sister-in-law put?"
"As usual, the concubine doesn't know why this happened?" Deng's heart patted on the chest, frowning.
Liu Yi frowned, but he remembered that the fire stove at home didn't seem to have the property of supporting combustion? Generally, the attributes of this type of fire stove are auxiliary attributes such as fire control or high temperature resistance.
After carefully confirming it, there is really no property that can increase the temperature of the fire. In fact, the furnace he built in Mocheng did not have the property of warming, otherwise Liu Yi would have been able to make steel in large quantities.
"Bo Yuan!" Wei Yue walked in a hurry and said to Liu Yi: "Somehow, when the kitchen lady at the house is cooking today, the fire is too hot, almost burned the people, and when the water is drawn, the bamboo The water coming out of the tube is like an arrow, and the puppies born in my family were directly sprayed to death. "
"Ah?" Liu Yi heard the words, looked at Wei Yue in surprise, and suddenly looked at his own fire stove again. After thinking about it, he ran straight to the well in the yard and drew the water, grabbed the pressure of the water, and moved towards Next press.
The water dragon, which was barely able to press the water on weekdays, directly sprayed a water fry and hit the corridor pillar of the corridor. The splashed water was flying. Fortunately, Wei Yue and others did not come around, otherwise they would not be washed. Chicken soup is not allowed.
Liu Yi saw it, thought about it, reduced some strength, and slowly pushed down, the water flow was normalized. It took half a day to get a bucket of water on weekdays, but today it was filled easily.
"Bo Yuan, is there something wrong with Feng Shui?" Wei Yue leaned over to Liu Yi and asked in a low voice.
"No, very good!" Liu Yi wanted to understand after a moment of silence. This should be the effect of the Five Elements Kiki. This effect, although there is no mythical feeling in the legend that can control the Five Elements, but this effect, Liu Yi is already very satisfied. Others don't say that just talking about this firepower is enough to make him feel excited, and it can appear a higher temperature, which means flame.
In this age when smelting technology is not too developed, furnace temperature has always been an important issue that troubles all blacksmiths. Being able to obtain a higher furnace temperature means that it can smelt better quality steel, whether forging weapons or making some iron. Products, with this invisible power, can at least take the smelting level of this era one step forward.
It is impossible to enter the industrial age, but at least it can be advanced to the level of the Tang and Song periods in terms of science and technology. Of course, it takes time. Liu Yi is not an encyclopedia. How to make progress can only be explored step by step, but at least, this The help brought by the power of the Five Elements is much stronger than he imagined.
Perhaps it is true that you can be famous for centuries. Perhaps thousands of years later, archaeologists will find from their burials that iron that has not been corrupted for thousands of years is harder than what is created by scientific and technological means. What foreigners marvel at of.
Think about it, and still feel a little excited.
"Bo Yuan?" Wei Yue reached out and shook in front of Liu Yi, pushing Liu Yi again.
"What's the matter?" Liu Yi reacted and looked at Wei Yue.
"How to deal with this matter?" Wei Yue frowned: "I have told you three times."
"Let there be less carbon stone when firing, and use less energy when drawing water, it will be fine." Liu Yi doesn't care, with this thing, it can save fuel.
"It's as simple as that?" Wei Yue heard a little disappointed.
"It's that simple, how complicated do you want?" Liu Yi asked back.
Wei Yue responded, turned around and walked out. Also, in Liu Yi, anything abnormal appeared, in fact, there was no need to make a fuss.
According to Liu Yi's argument, Deng had some carbon stone, and it turned out that the fire could be controlled. Liu Yi called out Lv Lingqi. After having a delicious meal of fresh fish soup, Liu Yi helped Lv Lingqi to rest in the house. After spending a while with my mother-in-law, she went to sleep.
Because the construction of the first farming village was successful, Liu Yi was greatly inspired. After sending people to Linxiang to buy some chickens and ducks and seeds, Liu Yi began to prepare for the construction of a second group building. This time, he was going to build a brick kiln, which specializes in firing bricks and tiles. By the way, he was also going to try to find out if he could study cement.
He didn't have much research on cement, but when he renovated in his previous life, he also heard those workers tell him that the general process is to crush limestone into powder and mix it with clay and iron powder in a certain proportion, and calcine the mature material by dry and cooked methods It can be used by grinding it with gypsum into powder.
The specific ratio is not clear, but the raw materials are not difficult to find. Limestone is generally a by-product when making ceramics. The porcelain of the Han Dynasty has been done very well. As for gypsum, it is not difficult to find. There are requirements on the calcination temperature and calcination temperature, but now with the help of the five elements, Liu Yi feels that this problem can also be solved.
With previous experience, this time Liu Yi is going to design a fire-based building group, which is specifically used as a base for brick kilns, casting and porcelain making. Therefore, to highlight the ability of fire, this problem naturally requires Cui Zhouping to help Well, it still needs to use water power, which can save a lot of labor, so it is the same five elements, but it is mainly based on fire. He ca n’t understand this thing, so he can only ask Cui Zhouping.
This time it was not too much trouble. Within a few days, Cui Zhouping sent a reply to Liu Yi. In addition to giving Liu Yi a detailed drawing, he also included a "Nine Chapter Arithmetic".
Liu Yi looked at the bamboo slips with ten volumes, and his face was dark. Cui Zhouping meant to let him study hard?
The bamboo slips are very new. After Liu Yi opened the volume, he was surprised to find that the figures above were all composed of the Arabic numbers Liu Yi said before. This was obviously written by Cui Zhouping himself recently.
There was some warmth in my heart, this guy actually took care of himself.
"Sir, what are these? Are they also words?" Liu Yi's new personal guard commander leaned over to Liu Yi, curiously looking at the bamboo slips in Liu Yi's hands, curious about the digital symbols.
The guardian commander was Chen Ergou. He was recruited by Wei Yue while he was in Mocheng. He was very clever and clean. They were the same people who came from Nanyang with them. Although they were not heirs, they could also be trusted.
No way, Liu Yi's original guard Liu Sandao is now a captain in Lingling, and he is also a general. Before Liu Yi was accompanied by Lv Lingqi, and with the follower, there was no need to worry about safety, but now Lv Lingqi I was pregnant. Someone really wanted to be unfavorable to Liu Yi, and it was impossible for Lv Lingqi to go into battle, so Wei Yue personally selected Chen Ergou as Liu Yi ’s personal guard.
"These are numbers." Liu Yi smiled.
"Numbers?" Chen Ergou looked at Liu Yi unexpectedly, somewhat puzzled. Although he was illiterate, he had seen the list a few times. He still knew the words of rewarding thousands of dollars and hundreds of prizes. How did these things work? Doesn't it look like numbers?
"Teach you in the future!" Liu Yi shook his head. This thing will not be promoted for the time being. At least, after the new city is built, it will be handed over to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang to find a way to promote it.
Chen Ergouren was very excited ~ EbookFREE.me ~ When Liu Yi didn't say it, he didn't ask much, he just looked at the drawing and said: "Is this the new village that Mr. said?"
"Well, the place that specializes in firing bricks, ceramics and casting weapons is different from this one, but it is mainly composed of earth and stone." Liu Yi nodded.
After the construction here, the fish pond should be able to make money, and the capital chain can begin to be sent out in a loop. Then the logging yard and the textile factory will follow. After the city is built, the capital chain will be connected, and the time is almost the same. It's winter, and it's time to start building new cities.
"You go to call General Wei to gather the manpower. The materials are ready and work will start tomorrow." Liu Yi closed the bamboo slip and smiled at Chen Ergou.
"Hello!"
In the next three months, Liu Yi was almost running around, and brick kilns, workshops, textile mills, and logging yards were built one after another. Liu Yi spent almost all of his time running around and planning, and the chickens and ducks here also It began to grow up and was taken away by the merchant ships of the Mi Family and transported to Jiangling, the public security and other places. Liu Yi ’s plan was improved step by step. At the same time, the newly built villages began to gather people in various counties. Flourish.
