A noble son from a poor family

Now, cement can be mass-produced, there is gunpowder to open mountains and stones, there is cement pouring and solidification, and building city walls, that is no longer a problem. So, Chu Yunhao found the fifth brother-in-law, gave him his thoughts and ideas, and gave him this glorious task. The fifth brother-in-law burped and patted his chest to pack the ticket, and this matter was wrapped up in him, saying that the big guy had already mentioned it to him, and he had long wanted him to say good things to his brother-in-law, and they also demolished the village across the river. It's just that the fifth brother-in-law also proposed a little difficult thing, that is, the rich man Li is a little greedy, and if he wants to demolish his family's big house, then he needs to replace the three-story brick and cement house. Hearing the words of the fifth brother-in-law, Chu Yunhao couldn't help laughing.

After successfully making cement, Chu Yunhao built a three-story red brick house with a fluke attitude, and it turned out that if the foundation was firmly laid and the solid wall masonry method was adopted, even if there was no steel bar, it was possible to build a three-story or even more three-story house. After the house is built, the outside is smoothed with cement, and the inside is plastered with a cement and then lime, which is also very tall, as for the floor, there is no prefabricated board without steel bars, and it cannot be poured as a whole, only wooden boards can be used, but even so, this is still a building beyond the times, no wonder Li Da Cai will be red-eyed, I heard that after the house is built, Li Da Cai Zhu comes to see it every day, it seems that it is indeed very fond of it, and he is very eager to do it.

However, this is compared with his big wooden house in a classical Chinese garden that may not be able to afford to cut down an entire deep and fierce old forest, which is really cheap and good, too bullying people. Chu Yunhao touched his nose and said that his eldest wife liked the house, and as long as the rich man Li was willing to demolish it, he would immediately build a three-story red brick house for him, and even a four-story or five-story house could be built for him. The fifth brother-in-law listened and was heartbroken, but he still nodded. As for the final result of this matter, many years later, Li Da Cai's family lived in a five-story brick house, and he looked at his house in confusion as Chu Yunhao's other courtyard, with a tile on the roof, and not a single tree in the yard had been moved, and he was puzzled. As for the demolition and relocation, everyone has demolished it, so why do they keep mine? This tall five-story brick building does not live in, and if you want to live in a backward and dilapidated wooden house, isn't this to find guilt?

Li Caizhu sighed at that time, he couldn't understand this young man, perhaps, no one could understand, no one thought that a young man in Anjiazhai, the son of a blacksmith, would do such earth-shattering things in the future and grow into the person who looked up to the mountains. returned him, at least found a little sign back then, thought that this young man was good, and wanted to marry his daughter to him.

Of course, these are all later words, let's not mention them for the time being, let's talk about Chu Yunhao in front of us first. After the celebration banquet, Chu Yunhao took his four wives and Zhao Mingyue to visit the new house he was building. The new house is planned in the center of the city in the future Anjia Walled City, now, here is still a large construction site, to start the abutment of the house has been generally filled in and rammed and bricked, the ancient classical garden architecture, the abutment is three feet higher than the flat ground is normal operation. The abutment is already on the pedestal, and the stone foundation is already carved into the shape of a tall stone drum, and the processed wood is everywhere, and at this rate, it should be possible to live in the new house by February next year.

After walking around the construction site in the village, at sunset, Chu Yunhao and his party rushed home. On the edge of the river in front of the village, Chu Yunhao saw several boats parked under the big willow tree, some selling wine and food, some selling candy and snacks, some selling needlework, some selling ceramics, and some selling iron pots and iron woks, copper woks, copper kettles, and cooking utensils. The last and largest one turned out to be a flower boat, with a woman dressed as a flower branch, standing on the bow of the boat looking left and right, Ying Ying smiled, and waved to other villagers who came to buy things from time to time.

Aunt Lin, I'm shopping, how much is this iron pot?

Hey, Xiao Liuzi, and a few ladies, this iron pot is so expensive, but it costs one or two taels of silver!

Third Brother Zhang, who are you going to get together with when you buy pig's head meat and wine!

Ah, it's Tuanzheng, Miss Zhao, and the younger brothers and sisters are also here, Brother Chu, it's rare that you let the brothers drink today, don't punish me for my mistakes, last time I fought bandits, Fourth Brother Li blocked a knife for me, don't you have to ask Fourth Brother Li to have a good drink!

It's okay, as long as it's not worth it today, it's okay to be drunk, but it can't be like this in normal times, and ah, how many times have I said it, as long as it's not a business trip, in private we still call it like before, and it's too raw.

I know, I know, Brother Chu, I'm leaving, do you want to go to my drink or two.

Something else, next time.

Little fifth sister, I'm buying candy to eat again, it's not good to eat too much sugar, be careful to eat your teeth.

It's the sixth brother, and the sisters-in-law, the sisters-in-law are so beautiful, the sixth brother, when I grow up, if you marry me, I won't eat sugar, if you don't marry me, then I'll eat my teeth badly.

Uh, how do you talk little guy, who told you this nonsense.

Oh, my eldest son Chu is blushing, it turns out that eldest prince Chu not only steals women's hearts, but also doesn't let go of this little sister so young!

Ahem... , play me again, and see if I can fix you later.

Little Sixth Brother, this candy will give you one, take it, I'll go.

Ouch, the son above, come down and have a glass of wine and talk about Fengyuebei, the cool breeze has a letter, and the wind and moon are boundless.

Master Chu, what are you doing looking at it so stunned, or the slave family will accompany you down to sit and sit, as the so-called cool breeze has faith, and the wind and moon are boundless.

Zhao Mingyue, you, it's too much, okay, go down and sit down, come on, my Miss Zhao, don't pull it!

Okay, okay, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, let's go, let's go, go home, go home.

Hahaha.... For a while, everyone laughed happily

Coming back from the river bay, Chu Yunhao thought a lot, Anjiazhai was already smashed with tens of thousands of taels of silver here, with the level of productivity and purchasing power in this era, tens of thousands of taels of silver were smashed in such a small place, it was very exaggerated. Now many people have spare money in their hands, and it is understandable that there are so many people who sell things here, after all, the world is bustling, all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit.

However, today, Chu Yunhao found another business with high added value, that is, to make cooking utensils such as iron pots and iron woks. With the technology of this era, it is not easy to build an iron pot, and the price is even more frighteningly high. Ordinary people, except for kitchen knives that are iron, many cooking utensils are made of pottery, and most of the pots are also made of pottery, called earthen pots. Iron pots and iron woks, people who have this thing, this is a family heirloom, one pot and one wok for three generations is not an exaggeration. Now Chu Yunhao's ironware workshop is mainly producing armor, swords, guns, swords, halberds, etc., and he has no energy to engage in these things, and the raw materials are not easy to obtain, and the government has control, and now if it weren't for the relationship between the city lord's mansion, he wouldn't be able to buy so many pieces of pig iron. However, when the iron-making workshop on the side of Tianzhu Mountain is set up, and then the civilian cooking utensils such as iron pots and iron woks are built, then there will be no big problem.

On the side of Tianzhu Mountain, a team of soldiers from the City Lord's Mansion is now stationed there, and it is also the City Lord's Mansion that is recruiting workers to mine. Chu Yunhao thought about it, now he still can't swallow this cake, the mountains, rivers and rivers, unique to the Son of Heaven, mining and salt production, the Son of Heaven is monopolized, this piece of meat is still thrown to the City Lord's Mansion to eat, it can be regarded as Zhao Mingyue's return gift for blocking an arrow for him, what he wants is nothing more than a steady stream of pig iron to supply him. In order to curry favor with An Qinghou, the future father-in-law, he also gave the other party the process of refining high-quality pig iron, of course, he did not suffer a loss, because the main technical condition of this process is to use the coke he produces to smelt, and at the same time tell the other party the level of technology, it can be regarded as a business for himself.

After the New Year, it will be the New Year in a few days, Chu Yunhao spent his first year happily in this different world, writing Spring Festival couplets, hanging red lights, and surviving all the time, everyone is full of joy and excitement. Zhao Mingyue went back, but she cried a lot before she went back, she was very reluctant, and she kept telling Chu Yunhao that he would go to the City Lord's Mansion to propose marriage after the New Year, and Chu Yunhao naturally agreed.
