Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 235 Cement

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Xue Lince cheered up.

"But when will our kiln be built?" Xue Lince still refused to give up. Even if Tang Luoyu had solved the current problem, there was no guarantee that he would encounter such a thing again in the future.

Tang Luoyu thought for a while: "I have told Uncle Wang before. It still depends on how he arranges it. I think it should be almost done."

Regarding cement, Xue Lince only knew that it should be made by calcining limestone.

Xue Lince regretted why he didn't take a good look at the time travel books that were widely circulated on the Internet before traveling through time.

As expected, it is only when the book is used that I regret it less.

As for what should be added to it, it still needs to be experimented slowly and little by little.

The road is long and long...

In the next few days, Tang Luoyu heard the rumors from the servants at home.

"Miss, you don't know, this is such a big fuss!" Guan Qi said while gesticulating. Bao Qin, who was standing next to her, was so scared that he hid behind him. "Zhang Shu and his wife grabbed their sister's hair and pulled her away.

Kicked out of the house."

Tang Luoyu almost squirted out a mouthful of water, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Zhang would do this.

"I think she deserves it," Guan Qi seemed to be unsatisfied, and kept blaring his little mouth, "She treated our young lady like that that day, and now she has been so humiliated that she will be embarrassed to say hello to people when she meets her in the future.

"

Tang Luoyu couldn't help but smile as she watched the two girls chatting back and forth.

It turns out that Mrs. Zhang's sister, called Juan Niang, was not only plotting for her family's favor, but also for her brother-in-law, who seemed to be extremely expensive.

Tang Luoyu pouted, didn't this person notice it before?

Mrs. Zhang has been taking Ganoderma lucidum for several years.

I think that the cuckoo girl, who had just lost her husband at that time, must have been in love with her brother-in-law when she saw her...

Uncle Wang quickly found a kiln. The family used to make pottery. Since there were no people at home, he wanted to go south to visit his relatives, so the kiln was sold at a low price.

After that, there was still glass to be made, so Tang Luoyu didn't lower the price, so he took it at the price given by the other party.

Although Xue Lince only remembered roughly, it saved the craftsmen a lot of time. Not long after the kiln was taken over, cement was developed.

Looking at the gray powder, Tang Luoyu said with some confusion: "Is this... what you made?"

This is not to blame Tang Luoyu, after all, the things Xue Lince made before, whether they are useful or not, at least they look very pleasing to the eye.

Even the pencil I made before looks like that with the barrel wrapped around it.

"Madam, this is a good thing." Xue Lince rubbed his hands and took Tang Luoyu to the side, letting him see the wall he had built in the yard, "You see, this thing is powder before adding water, and it condenses together after adding water.

, it’s as hard as stone.”

Tang Luoyu touched it and found that it was indeed as Xue Lince said.

"This..." Tang Luoyu couldn't believe her eyes, "How on earth was this done?"

Xue Lince shrugged. He could do it now, but he couldn't tell him how ugly he was.

"Before, Chen Cheng always said that there was something wrong with my dam," Xue Lince sighed and said, "I think it's because building the dam cost a lot of money. In addition, the shapes I painted, although they look majestic, the materials used are relatively poor.

It also requires more, and it’s difficult to achieve the results I want if I use masonry and rammed earth.”

At that time, Chen Cheng just scolded him. Presumably it was because he felt that he was incompetent in general affairs and thought that he only wanted to win the emperor's admiration by relying on his uncanny skills, especially since he produced several drawings in one day.

Xue Lince sighed in his heart. Now that he thought about it, he couldn't blame Chen Cheng entirely.

After all, he had just been transferred by the emperor to Dushui of the Ministry of Industry because of ice-making matters.

Water conservancy is an extremely professional thing. No one can believe that a person who has just been admitted to Jinshi can be proficient in water conservancy...

After all, his position would have been at the deputy department level in modern times. A student who had just graduated from university was eager to make a career as soon as he was assigned to the unit.

No matter how you think about it, it feels unreliable.

Tang Luoyu came to Xue Lince: "Ms. sir, I don't understand this, but I think what you made must be good."

"Do you trust me so much?" Xue Lince pinched her face.

"That's natural." Tang Luoyu smiled, "But if you want to offer cement this time, why not talk to your cousin first?"

Xue Lince thought for a while: "That's why I asked him to come and take a look. In fact, cement can not only be used in water conservancy construction. It can be used in everything from homes and houses to building city walls."

"Build a city wall?" Tang Luoyu looked at Xue Lince in surprise, "I thought this was just for glutinous rice paste..."

Tang Luoyu thought it was just an adhesive.

"That's natural. Using this to pour the city wall not only saves time in building, but also eliminates the labor of mining stones." Xue Lince liked the gray-white powder in front of him, "It's really easy to use."

Tang Luoyu also realized something at this time.

Although ice making was considered to benefit the people in the past, it was not so closely related to the people's vital interests.

But this cement is different.

She had previously supported Xue Lince by saying that the cost of cement was not very high, so more people could use it.

Soon Jingshan came to their house and fell into silence looking at the pile of powder in front of him.

"Cousin, although today is a holiday, I am still very busy." Jing Shan looked at the two people in front of him and spoke speechlessly.

"This is a good thing," Xue Lince said with a smile, "I call it cement."

Hearing the new vocabulary, Jing Shan frowned slightly: "What's the use of this?"

"That will have many uses." Xue Lince led Jing Shan over to see the small section of road he had paved with cement and the small wall he had built.

The roads are also paved in the house itself. Ordinary families use rammed earth, while wealthy families quarry stones and lay them on the ground in whole blocks.

Now the road under Jingshan's feet was smooth and flat, as if it had been quarried from a single piece of stone.

"This..." Before Jingshan could praise him, Xue Lince took him to the small wall.

"Cousin, look at this again." Xue Lince took out a small dagger from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Jing Shan.

Jing Shan took out his dagger and stabbed it at the wall. He found that only a shallow mark was left on the wall. He looked at Xue Lince in shock.

"You have such strength." Jing Shan patted Xue Lince on the shoulder with satisfaction, "I have to say that His Majesty made a wise decision by assigning you to the Ministry of Industry."

Xue Lince scratched his head in embarrassment.
