Qin Mo dragged the cement back to Chang 'an City and immediately carried out a sanitary renovation in Qin Manor.
They dug holes, built toilets, and installed squatting toilets.
Due to the sufficient manpower, it only took half a day to build it.
When Old Qin came back, he was shocked. When he went to the morning court, there was still an empty space. Now, the house had been built. He found it unbelievable.
After all, the Great Tang hadn't had cement before, so building houses wasn't that fast.
After Qin Mo ordered the craftsmen to clean up Qin Du's residence, he also renovated King Qin's residence.
"Tear down all these houses and tear down that wall.”
Qin Mo commanded the craftsmen to demolish King Qin's Residence.
Ma Zhou rushed over to dissuade Qin Mo," Uncle Lan Tian, isn't this inappropriate? King Qin's Residence is His Majesty's old residence. If His Majesty were to investigate and demolish it without His Majesty's permission, I'm afraid he would have to bear the consequences.”
Xue Rengui was also worried.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Not only will His Majesty not blame me, he will even reward me.”Qin Mo smiled. If he didn't have a good enough reason, he wouldn't dare to destroy King Qin's mansion.
Before he could finish, a furious voice rang out behind him." My royal residence, this brat is despicable. If you don't give me a reasonable reason, I'll reward you with a meal of stir-fried bamboo shoots and meat."”
Stir-fried meat with bamboo shoots! The metaphor was spanking.
This was another trend that Qin Mo had created in Chang 'an. The people of Chang' an found it interesting, so they followed suit.
This voice was very familiar. It was Li Er. Behind him were Old Qin, Old Cunning, Foolish Yuchi, Kong Yingda, and the others.
Qin Mo bowed and said," Your Majesty."”
Xue Rengui and the others hurriedly bowed.
"No need for formalities." Second Deputy Li said angrily," Brat, how dare you destroy my mansion without permission? What do you want?"”
Old Qin looked at the mess at the scene and felt a headache. His nephew always liked to make big news. This time, he even dared to tear down the King Qin's residence. No matter how he looked at it, he was too bold.
However, with the horseshoes and the Zhenguan plow, these two great killing weapons that benefited the country and the people, as long as it was not a rebellion, Li Er would not do anything to him.
However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is difficult to forgive. This time, he would only restrain himself after he suffered a little.
"Why is His Majesty here at the Chinese Academy of Sciences?" Qin Mo asked with a smile. He didn't have the slightest awareness of being discovered for doing bad things.
"Chancellor Kong gave some Arabic numbers to His Majesty and said that he got it from you and asked His Majesty to promote it. His Majesty then had the idea of coming to the Chinese Academy of Sciences to take a look.”The old man said.
Old fool Yuchi, however, spoiled the mood." Brat, why did you demolish His Majesty's manor? If you don't have a reasonable reason, I'm afraid you'll be beaten up."”
This old fellow was probably still holding a grudge against Qin Mo for making him run around naked. He was thinking of getting Old Qin to hang Qin Mo up and beat him up.
Li Er snorted coldly and said through gritted teeth," Don't try to change the topic. I'm only asking why you demolished the residence of Prince Qin. If you don't have a valid reason, I'll get Uncle Bao to hang you up and beat you up."”
Qin Mo looked surprised." Didn't His Majesty bestow King Qin's Mansion to me?”
"When did I say that I would bestow this King Qin's Residence to you?”Li Er was stunned by Qin Mo's shamelessness. He regretted making King Qin's Mansion the base of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This shameless kid actually wanted to take his King Qin's Mansion for himself." Do you think you can do whatever you want just because King Qin's Mansion is yours?"”
Qin Mo nodded.
"Prince Qin's Mansion is only temporarily lent to you.”Li Er snorted. If he didn't make things clear, who knew what would happen in the future.
"Brat, why did you tear down His Majesty's King Qin Residence?”The cunning old man felt that Qin Mo was not the kind of person who would do whatever he wanted. There must be a reason for him to demolish King Qin's residence.
Qin Mo said," To build toilets."
"I can't help you this time." The cunning old man was instantly dumbfounded.
Old Qin and the others were also dumbfounded. Li Er was so angry that he was trembling." Men, hang this kid up and beat him up.”
Old Qin shook his head and smiled bitterly. Old fool Yuchi was gloating." Serves you right."”
Two guards stepped forward and were about to arrest Qin Mo.
"Wait!" Qin Mo stopped him." I have something to say."”
"What else do you have to say?" Li Er glared at him.
"Your Majesty, I'm also sharing your worries.”Qin Mo said seriously.
"You demolished my manor to build a latrine. This is also to share the burden of the monarch. This is clearly sophistry.”Li Er was speechless.
Qin Mo smiled and said," As the saying goes, when you are at the top of the court, you worry about your people. When you are far away in the Jianghu, you worry about your ruler. I worry about my sleep every night."
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Li Er." My ears are getting numb from hearing this. Get to the point."”
Qin Mo said innocently," But I'm telling the truth.”
Li Er said with a headache," Every time you say this, I know you're going to trick me again.”
"Where do I start?" Qin Mo said innocently.
"Get to the point." Li Er knew that Qin Mo was going to set him up again. His anger had subsided, but he felt a pain in the ass.
Qin Mo said," I ordered the craftsmen to make something called cement. It can be used to build walls and fortresses. It is as hard as iron and stone.”
Li Eryi was shocked." Is that true?"
After listening to Qin Mo's description, Li Er naturally knew the wonderful use of cement in the military.
"If we can build the city to the grassland, what will the result be?”Qin Mo asked with a smile.
Since ancient times, the people of the grasslands had been like weeds, cut off one after another. Although the Central Plains could defeat them, they could not effectively control the grasslands. In almost every dynasty, the people of the grasslands were a major threat to the Central Plains.
"If we can build a city in the grasslands and migrate there, we can achieve control over the grasslands. If this thing is really as Qin Mo said, it will be beneficial for thousands of years.”Perhaps it was because he had earned money, but it was rare for the old man to speak up for Qin Mo.
Li Er nodded. He had no qualms about defeating the Turks. The only thing worth considering was how to effectively control the steppe after defeating the Turks.
The appearance of cement gave him hope.
"Your Majesty, the cement only needs six hours to dry and seven days of maintenance before it can be used.”Qin Mo struck while the iron was hot.
Li Er and the others were all shocked. If it was really so fast, it would be much easier to build a city on the grassland.
Why didn't the imperial court of the Central Plains build a city on the prairie after defeating the people of the prairie? It was because building a city was too inconvenient and cost a lot of money. If cement could really build a city so easily, it would be a divine item.
There was no need to say anything else. Li Er could already guess the use of it.
"This item can also be used to build roads. It won't break down over time and can strengthen the connection between the imperial court and the various regions.”
Li Er was tempted." Is it really as easy as you said?”
Qin Mo said," There's no point in saying more. You'll know when Your Majesty comes to take a look in ten days.”
"Good! As you wish."
"Then this demolition…"
Li Eryi said with a constipated expression," As long as you're happy. Do whatever you want. I don't care."”
"I didn't want to, but this King Qin's Mansion is not suitable to be an Academy. It has to be renovated.”
If the hundreds of students in the Academy didn't carry out sanitary renovation, they would stink. Qin Mo, who treated this place as a development base, naturally couldn't tolerate it.
Li Er was speechless. This was still his fault.
