Legendary star: Signed to the Palace at the beginning

Chapter 61 Reinforced Concrete

Pan Taiya thanked her, put the soap under her nose and sniffed it curiously, a fresh fragrance hit her heart and lungs, Xiao Chuan taught her to open the facial cleanser, squeezed out a little and rubbed it on the back of her hand, it was fragrant and slippery.

Pan Taiya felt as if he had found a treasure, and his eyes turned into crescent moons with a smile.

"Ding, the system signed in to the Tiantai Palace construction site."

"Great, finally signed again."

Xiao Chuan bid farewell to Kusahe and Pan Taiya, and drove to the entrance of the Tiantai Palace construction site.

"Sign in."

"Ding, the host successfully signed in to the construction site of the Tiantai Palace, and rewarded with a small force pill."

"System, what is Xiaoliwan?"

"Host, Xiaoliwan can increase the power of the host by one percent."

"Do you want Zhongli Wan and Dali Wan?"

"Yes, the Zhongli Pill can increase the host's strength by 5.00%, and the Dali Pill can increase the host's strength by [-]%."

"System, if I have more strength, will I improve more?"

"Correct."

"Great, I'll practice when I get back."

Now Xiao Chuan practices Xingyiquan for at least three hours every day, and he will have to train more strength every day in the future.

Xiao Chuan walked into the construction site and saw Yu Wenkai was also at the construction site.

"Brother Yuwen, why are you here?"

"How can someone miss such an architectural miracle as the Tiantai Palace? Brother Yu has already decided that someone will live here this month."

"Then brother Yuwen has worked hard."

It was the royal craftsmen who moved quickly. In just one day, a huge circular trough with a height of several feet has been surrounded by wooden boards, and densely packed steel bars are erected inside.

Next to it is a shed surrounded by huge wooden boards.

"My dear brother, is cement really stronger than green bricks?"

"Brother Yuwen, that's rigid concrete, several times stronger than green bricks, you can't smash it with a big hammer."

Xiao Chuan ordered a group of forbidden troops to guard the work shed day and night, not allowing anyone to approach, and then entered the work shed with Yu Wenkai.

While Yu Wenkai was stunned, a steel behemoth appeared in the work shed.

"Brother Xian, what kind of monster is this?"

"Brother Yuwen, this machine is called a concrete mixer. It mixes sand, gravel, cement and water together and pours them into the wooden trough. After the concrete dries, it will be as hard as copper and iron."

"My dear brother, where did you get this kind of mechanism?"

"Brother Yuwen, to tell you the truth, when I was a child, I met a strange person and taught me these knowledge and machines."

"Where does that strange man practice?"

"A certain master is from Lanxiang Technical School, and this concrete mixer is the equipment of the technical school."

"There is such a magical place. Brother Yu really wants to learn about it."

"That place is too far away, maybe someone can establish one in this world in the future."

"Such a useful place must be established."

"Brother Yuwen, my little brother will teach you how to operate the blender."

Yu Wenkai and Xiao Chuan got into the cab of the mixer. As expected of construction wizards, Yu Wenkai quickly learned to operate the mixer.

Yu Wenkai is a general supervisor, so he naturally has cronies, so Xiao Chuan asked Yu Wenkai to find cronies and craftsmen to do the hard work, transport cement, sand and gravel from the warehouse, and put them into the mixer, then press the switch, the mixer " Boom" and started working.

Yu Wenkai and his craftsmen were stunned to see the concrete poured into the wooden trough from the huge pipe, and the gaps in the wooden trough were quickly filled.

"My dear brother, the blender is amazing. One blender can catch up with the efficiency of hundreds of craftsmen."

"Brother Yuwen, I will leave the base of Tiantai Palace to you. I will go to produce other things. I will come back in ten days."

"Don't worry, dear brother, leave this place to Brother Yu. In ten days, the base will be built."

"Brother Yuwen, this place must be kept secret. Don't let outsiders know your secret."

"This foolish brother understands that the master's secret skills cannot be spread casually. He must order these craftsmen and the imperial army to strictly keep the secret."

Yu Wenkai sent some craftsmen to follow Xiao Chuan to learn how to make elevators, turntables, bearings, cutting glass, etc.

It was already dark to teach these craftsmen.

The next day, Xiao Chuan came to the gate of the city. Yu Wenyan, who had a yellow face and a mustache, was already waiting with two horses, tens of feet away, Ruyi and a dozen guards from the Zhao Palace secretly protected him.

Xiao Chuan saw that there was no saddle at all, but a cotton mattress on the horse's back, with leather padding on top, covering the horse's belly.

The stirrups did not fit the feet either. The stirrups of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were inherited from the Xianbei people with a long straight handle and a wooden core.

The stirrup handle is in the shape of a long strip, and the ratio of its length to the stirrup height is about one-half. The upper part of the handle is pierced, and the root of the handle is gradually narrowed. The thickness of the stirrup body is the same, and the pedals are slightly raised upward. The texture of the stirrup is a wooden core. Three sides are covered with copper sheets or leather.

To put it bluntly, it was as if two wooden boots were tied on both sides of the horse's back, and his feet were inserted into the wooden boots. After riding too far, Xiao Chuan's butt slipped off the horse's back, and his legs were still hanging in the stirrups.
Yu Wenyan smiled and said, "I never thought that Mr. Dugu, who is both civil and military, can't ride a horse."

Xiao Chuan said: "Who said that a certain person can't ride a horse? A certain person has ridden in the grassland together, but he doesn't have a saddle and is not used to it."

Yu Wenyan really asked: "Saddle? I haven't heard of it. We Xianbei people have been riding horses like this for hundreds of years, and even our ancestors rode on bare horses to fight."

Xiao Chuan said in a sloppy manner, "Hehe, I'm just talking casually."

Yu Wenyan frowned and said: "I don't believe it, it seems that brother Dugu doesn't believe my younger brother, and I have something to hide from me."

Xiao Chuan didn't know why. He didn't want to deceive Yu Wenyan from the bottom of his heart. For a moment, he even doubted whether there was something wrong with him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Yuwen, I also have some new ideas. I will go to a painting in Qujiang Village later. Let’s see if a carpenter can make the drawing.”

Along the way, Xiao Chuan had no choice but to tightly clamp the horse's back with his thighs, and slid off the horseback more than ten times. Jiangcun.

Seeing Xiao Chuan's embarrassment, Yu Wenyan felt amused in her heart, and her mood improved a lot.

Ruyi and the guards followed from a distance, seeing Yu Wenyan's happy face, they all breathed a sigh of relief, the princess can be happy every day.

"Ding, the system has released the task of signing in to Qujiang Village, do you want to sign in?"

"Sign in."

"If you sign in to Qujiang Village successfully, you will be rewarded with shooting skills."

Xiao Chuan wondered in his heart: "That's great, it's actually a shooting skill. Could it be that I'm going to follow the path of an old man?"

Not long after Xiao Chuan and Yu Wenyan arrived in Qujiang Village, the Yujuluo brothers also came to Qujiang Village following the grain delivery truck of the grain store.

"Xiao Lizheng, call the villagers together, someone has something to say."

As Lizheng, Xiao Lizheng was very prestigious, and soon the villagers came in sparsely. Although they were listless and thin, they had no thorns, and they seemed to be resigned.

Xiao Chuan didn't waste any time, jumped on the cart, opened a bag of grain, pointed at the millet in Huangchuan River, and said: "I want to buy the mussels from Qujiang Pool. All the young and old men in Qujiang Village, count them one by one. If you want to work, just stand right behind Xiao Li, and I will provide you with food. Three meals a day of dry millet rice and pork stew will keep you satisfied."
