Prince Wu's manor,
Zhu Rong and Xu Miaoyun stood side by side at the top of the construction site.
The workers recruited by the Ministry of Works were busy working.
The workers mixed the cement and mortar according to the ratio that Zhu Rong had mentioned. They had already perfectly stuck the cement mortar on the sewer.
Zhu Rong finally got the perfect sewer in his heart.
"Xu Tong, you did well!"
"As for the foundation, when the manure pit is completed, we can start building normally!”
"Did I teach you how to make a manure pit? The remaining cement should be enough!”
After listening to Zhu Rong's instructions, Xu Miaoyun lowered her head."
"Your Highness, I have already explained everything!‘
"It's the first time the workers are using this cement mortar. They're not used to it yet, but after using it, they all say it's good!
"The cement mortar invented by His Highness is very useful!”
"Hahaha, I actually got the formula from the Hu…"
Zhu Rong's words caused Xu Miaoyun to roll her eyes. The Hu joke had been used so many times, yet he still wanted to come?
Her husband was already used to shifting the blame to the Hu when he couldn't make a decision.
However, after one day, Xu Miaoyun had a new view of the cement invented by Zhu Rong.
This thing was also an amazing invention.
As the daughter of a general, although she had never seriously studied the art of war, she was no stranger to military matters after being influenced by the Xu family.
Especially logistics, defense,
Xu Miaoyun thought that she was quite knowledgeable.
Otherwise, in her original destiny, when Zhu Di was in trouble and Li Jinglong's army besieged Beiping, she would not have instructed her son, Zhu Gaochi, to defend Beiping.
It was also because of this knowledge that she realized that the cement invented by Zhu Xiong could be of great help in building fortifications, especially in the construction of city walls.
In particular, Zhu Rong had proposed a method of reverse molding,
He had the craftsmen smelt the wrought iron into long strips and tie them up, then poured cement and mortar into them.
Although she didn't know that this was a common method of pouring concrete, it didn't stop Xu Miaoyun from admiring Zhu Rong.
She did not know how her husband's brain had grown. If someone else could achieve one of his achievements in their lifetime, it was already enough to leave their name in the history books.
But his miraculous abilities, one after another,
It seemed endless.
Especially this fellow, who knew how many mansions he had hidden in the Ying Tian Prefecture.
In any case, there were surprises in every house.
"This servant just doesn't understand. How many mansions does Your Highness have in the Ying Tian Prefecture?”
"Why did you buy so many mansions?”
"People who don't know would think that His Highness lacked a house in his previous life.”
It hurts my heart, brother!
Zhu Rong's face was covered in tears. He was really a mortgage slave in his previous life.
"Your Highness, this servant feels that this cement…is very useful!”
After Xu Miaoyun realized the effect of cement, she used her spy's instinct and started to beat around the bush.
"I've already cleared out the warehouse of the house and cement to the merchant yesterday!”
"Your Highness, how could you?"
"If you present this to the Emperor…"
When Xu Miaoyun heard that Zhu Rong had sold his house, she became anxious. How could he sell his house?
Zhu Rong patted the young eunuch's shoulder and said earnestly,"
"Xu Tong, have you forgotten our initial intentions?”
"This cement is useless to me. I can't convert it into cash. I might as well sell it!”
"Tomorrow, if that merchant is willing, I can even give him the formula!”
"Anyway, it doesn't matter how this technology is spread. The important thing is that it must not be related to us, understand?”
Zhu Rong was seriously lecturing his subordinates.
Suddenly, a notification sound that had not appeared for a long time appeared in his mind.
"The host has successfully angered the emperor. The reward is a set of treasure ship designs!”
"Reward: 1 Face Preserving Pill!"
"F * ck!"
Zhu Xiong was shocked by this system notification. When did he offend Old Zhu?
These days, because Old Zhu had obtained the glass craft, he was especially pleased with Zhu Rong.
It had been a while since he had angered his father.
Why did he suddenly make Old Zhu angry today?
The system's reaction was definitely furious.
There were two rewards, and one of them was actually the surreal reward, the Face Retaining Pill.
What the f * ck was going on?
Zhu Rong did not know that Old Zhu was already on his way to the construction site of Prince Wu's Mansion.
But he decided to lay low.
"Xu Tong, you stay at the construction site to supervise. I'll go and settle the toilet!“
After saying that, Zhu Rong left Xu Tong behind and left.
Xu Miaoyun didn't know why Zhu Rong was walking so fast.
Not long after Zhu Wei left,
"The emperor has arrived!"
The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, had finally arrived at the construction site of the Wu Residence.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The Emperor strode forward like a dragon and tiger, leading the Crown Prince and a group of important officials into the construction site of the Wu Estate.
Everyone at the construction site quickly knelt down and saluted.
"Xu Tong, you're here too?"
"Where's your master?"
When Old Zhu stepped into the construction site, the first thing he saw was Xu Miaoyun, who was wearing a eunuch uniform.
Xu Miaoyun didn't expect the Emperor to come and quickly bowed.
Lao Zhu asked. Miao Yun lowered her head and replied,"
"His Highness just left!"
"Humph!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked around. When he saw the workers tying iron sticks and using mortar and concrete to mold the manure tank, Old Zhu felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
This was definitely the cement that Shen Wansan had used.
Damn it, the cement really came from the construction site of the Wu residence. He had wronged Shen Wansan.
This time, he, the emperor, had lost a lot of face.
Old Zhu trembled with anger and pointed at the cement mortar."
"What is this? Who made this?”
"Your Majesty, I don't know where King Wu got this from. This servant only knows that this is called cement!”：
"The cement!"
"The cement!"
Not to mention Old Zhu, even the Crown Prince Zhu Biao, the Six Ministers, the Left and Right Ministers, the Censor, and the others were dumbfounded.
This cement was made by Wu Wang.
And he even sold it to Shen Wan to repair the city walls?
Those censors who had read Shen Wansan's book were already sweating profusely,
Were they suing Shen Wansan or a prince?
It was fine if she sued him, but if she sued him wrongly…
Recalling the Emperor's awkwardness at the city wall, everyone had a bad feeling.
This unfilial son is really cheating his father.
If one were to use a term from the future to describe Old Zhu's current state, it would be called social death.
He righteously ran to the construction site to kill one person to warn the others, but he realized that he had made a mistake.
He was the emperor. Who the hell put him on the fire?
It was this unfilial son!
"Let me ask you, did a businessman come to buy cement yesterday?”
"Excuse me, there's a businessman called Zhang Xiu who wants to buy cement from Your Highness."
" He mistook Your Highness for the foreman of the construction site and even treated Your Highness to a meal…"
Xu Miaoyun's answer made Old Zhu despair.
Shen Wansan was not lying. He had made a mistake.
"Other than the Crown Prince, everyone else, step aside!”
Old Zhu waved his hand and asked everyone to leave for the time being.
After the officials paid their respects, they all left the construction site, leaving only Xu Miaoyun, Zhu Biao, and the Emperor.
"Tell me the ins and outs of the matter.
"Regarding the cement, we can't hold back at all!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Without a third person present, Xu Miaoyun told him everything about Zhu Rong.
Old Zhu fell silent.
Xu Miaoyun had told him that Zhu Rong would be using a new house, but he didn't expect it to be a cement workshop.
Such a divine item…
It was that bastard's doing again.
This guy was wasting a heavenly treasure. Why was he using such materials to repair the sewers?
Wait, what was this manure pit?
Old Zhu felt that he was getting more and more confused about what this unfilial son was doing.
Puff!
Just as Old Zhu's anger was rising, Crown Prince Zhu Biao, who was behind the Emperor, laughed out loud.
Seeing the Emperor turn his head, a little angry from embarrassment, Zhu Biao quickly explained,"
"Imperial Father, your son is laughing at Fifth Brother for scheming so much, but in the end, he still fell into a pit!”
"Think about it. He felt that the cement workshop was useless and was afraid that you would reward him if you found out, so he sold the cement workshop!”
"But in the end, he still didn't escape. Under a strange combination of factors, he fell into the hands of Imperial Father again!”
"This time, Imperial Father can openly teach this unfilial son a lesson and obtain the formula for such a divine item!”
Xu Miaoyun, who was standing at the side, was about to burst into tears from holding back her laughter.
She had heard about the city wall from Zhu Biao and found out that Zhang Xiu was the famous Shen Wansan.
In order to keep a low profile, her husband had already worked very hard.
But in the end, he could not escape the trick of fate, and the matter of cement was still exposed to the emperor.
"Wife Miao Yun, congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Xu Miaoyun also knelt down and congratulated the Emperor.
"Daughter-in-law, zhen is almost angered to death by your husband, and you still congratulate zhen?”
"Do you also want to see me make a fool of myself?"
Xu Miaoyun shook her head.
"If my husband makes a mistake, the emperor can just beat him up!”
"It's only right for a father to hit his son!”
"Miao Yun is another creature that Your Majesty Zhu took out from your husband, and it doesn't cost anything!”
Hearing this, the anger on Zhu Yuanzhang's face gradually subsided.
The Crown Prince and Xu Miaoyun actually had the same meaning.
According to Xu Miaoyun's description and Old Zhu's experiment at the city wall, cement was definitely a divine weapon.
Whether it was for military use, building city walls, or for the people's livelihood, repairing bridges and paving roads, it was definitely a good thing.
Moreover, compared to glutinous rice juice, cement had the advantage of not taking food from the people.
Glutinous rice juice was indeed not bad, but in this era where the common people could not eat their fill,
Using glutinous rice juice to repair the city walls was equivalent to stealing food from the people.
No matter how much better the effect of cement was than glutinous rice juice, even if it was a little worse,
As long as he could not fight with the people for food, he would be of great merit.
At the thought of this, Old Zhu actually felt a faint sense of pride for that unfilial son.
He quickly suppressed his thoughts and snorted coldly.
"Miao Yun, I realized that you are still speaking up for your husband after beating around the bush!”
Xu Miaoyun lowered her head and stuck out her tongue.
It seemed that his little thoughts could not be hidden from the Emperor.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty?"
"I don't blame you. Shouldn't you speak up for your husband?”：
"Get up and tell me about this concrete!”
