After the cement solidified, it was smooth and firm. Liu Xuan asked someone to pick up the sledgehammer.
"You, smash it hard!"
The man with the hammer walked up to the cement and hammered it.
Bang!
The cement was safe and sound!
The burly man almost dropped his hammer, and his palm turned red.
The surrounding people were all shocked and incredulous.
They had all seen the process of making this cement, but they had all suspected that this cement was really as strong and useful as the adults said.
And now, the facts had proven everything!
He was fine even when he smashed the hammer with all his might!!
"Sir, this is simply a divine item for building dams!”Li Si and the others could not help but exclaim.
Liu Xuan smiled and said," This cement is convenient, highly malleable, and sturdy. It takes less time. Not only can it be used to build dams, but it can also be used to build houses, city walls, roads, and so on!”
"Yes, yes, yes. Why didn't we think of that? Your Excellency, you're really godly!”
Liu Xuan looked at their shocked expressions and waved his hand." Alright, the Ministry of Works doesn't give us much time. There's still about a month left. In a month, use cement to repair this dam. Can you do it?"”
"It'll work!"
Nearly a thousand people shouted at the same time.
Liu Xuan left in satisfaction. However, he sent Shangguan Wan 'er over.
How could he let go of such an intelligent assistant by his side?
The job he gave Shangguan Wan 'er was simple. She was in charge of supervising the work.
Li Si was called away by him. The blueprint of the waterwheel had been completed, and he had to find a craftsman to make it.
After returning to the government office, Liu Xuan called Li Si over.
"Do we have any skilled craftsmen in Longmen County?”
Li Si thought for a moment and nodded."There really is. Milord, there is an old craftsman in Huliu Alley in the east of the city. I heard that he once built a hall for the royal family!”
"Oh?"
Liu Xuan's interest was immediately piqued." Alright, get him here immediately!”
"Here!"
Wan 'er was in charge of building the dam. Liu Xuan planned to focus on building the waterwheel. Once the waterwheel appeared, there would not be a situation of rivers cracking here and there.
Not only that, but the Great Tang's agriculture would also be pushed to a large extent by Liu Xuan.
Liu Xuan was confident!
Soon, Li Si appeared in front of Liu Xuan with a white-haired old man wearing straw shoes and coarse linen clothes.
"Wang Lizhu greets my lord!"
Liu Xuan sized him up. Although the old man's clothes were tattered, his palms were very big and there were many calluses on them.
It looked like an old craftsman!
After Li Si left, Liu Xuan cupped his hands and said to the old man,""Old Mr. Wang built a palace for the royal family?“
"Yes, my lord." Wang Lizhu hurriedly said,"The construction of Lin De Hall was done by this lowly one."”
"Alright, I have a blueprint here. I wonder if you can make it.”
As he spoke, Liu Xuan handed the blueprint to Wang Lizhu.
Wang Lizhu quickly took it with both hands.
Actually, when he came, Li Si said that the county magistrate wanted him to make something. Wang Lizhu was wondering what the county magistrate was up to.
However, when he saw the blueprint in his hand, his eyes widened in shock and disbelief!
"Sir, who designed this? He was simply a genius! If this waterwheel was manufactured, countless commoners would not have to worry about carrying water or drought!”
Liu Xuan smiled." This was designed by me. Old Sir, you should know that our Dragon Gate has always been suffering from serious floods. Moreover, the Fen River occasionally bursts its banks, causing serious floods around the Fen River. However, during droughts, the other side is extremely dry. If the waterwheel can be made, this situation will not happen. Not only that, I am also repairing the Fen River embankment. In about a month, our Dragon Gate will be ready.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Lizhu knelt down in front of Liu Xuan on the spot.
"Sir, you are really a good official!!”
"Sir, you don't have to be like this. Since I am the Dragon Sect's official, I will naturally think for the people of Dragon Sect. However, can you make this waterwheel?”
When Wang Lizhu heard Liu Xuan's words, he quickly patted his chest and said,""Don't worry, sir. This blueprint is detailed and clear at a glance. This old man will be able to make it in three days!”
"Alright, I've been waiting for you to say this! If you want money, you have money. If you want people, you have people. When the time comes, I will gather all the craftsmen in the county to help you make it!”
Wang Lizhu also promised repeatedly. He was already in his fifties, but his wrinkled face was still flushed red with excitement.
After Wang Lizhu left, Liu Xuan sat down on the chair in a relaxed manner.
Both matters were settled, and he heaved a sigh of relief.
He opened the Group chats and found that there were many unread messages.
Lu Buwei was always the first to speak." Group Leader, how did you come up with this idea of cement? How is it so amazing?”
"I haven't seen him."
"I've seen lime, but I've never heard of it."”
Cao Cao: "If I had this thing earlier, why would I worry about not achieving great things?"”
"Group Leader is amazing!"
Li Bai was very happy." Group Leader did a good thing! The appearance of cement and waterwheels had brought great benefits to the people of the Great Tang!”
Bao Zheng and Ji Xiaolan, who hadn't spoken much, couldn't help but praise.
Liu Xuan rolled his eyes. It was really not easy to be praised by these guys.
However, Liu Xuan suddenly had an idea and asked in the group,""Tell me, how should I promote these two things in the Great Tang?”
"Promotion?" The group leader wants Li Er to know, right?"
Qin Hui: " The group leader wants to be promoted and get rich. Everyone, think of a way!”
"Isn't that simple?" Lu Buwei said disdainfully. He directly wrote a letter and sent it to the Ministry of Works!”
"Ministry of Works?" Then there were the Wang family. What if they suppressed it?”
Wei Zhongxian: " Are you stupid? Who is Li Er? Who are his subordinates, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui? Could the Ministry of Works be completely controlled by the Wang family? Moreover, you are underestimating the Minister of Works!”
Cao Cao suddenly said," Minister Lyu's method is not bad. However, I think that we must first create a commotion. At the very least, we must create a commotion in Hedong Road. At that time, even if someone from the Ministry of Works tries to cause trouble, we won't be able to do anything."”
...
Liu Xuan looked at them and secretly praised them in his heart. As expected of a 'famous court'!
Regardless of whether they were treacherous officials or loyal officials, their methods were different!
Liu Xuan thought about it and decided to use Cao Cao's method. However, he had to make some changes. Fang Xuanling had spoken up for him before so that he could take root in the Dragon Sect.
It could be divided into two steps. One was in Dragon Gate, so much so that Jiangzhou and Hedong Road would vigorously promote it!
On one hand, he wrote two letters, one to the Ministry of Works and the other to Fang Xuanling!
