The First Family of Tang Dynasty
Chapter 1281: Of course Cheng Sanlang will not let go of any chance to squeeze the wool...
Li Shimin stood up, saw the gaze cast by his daughter and his wife, smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Nothing left or right, you follow me and take a look. This time, Cheng Saburo and the others finally delivered the cement."
"Before, they always boasted that what they burned in Luzhou cement stone was not mellow soil, but cement.
Once this cement is mixed with water and aggregate, its firmness is comparable to the bluestone used for paving in our palace. "
Li Mingda and Empress Changsun followed in Li Shimin's footsteps towards the Ganlu Hall, waiting for them to reach the Ganlu Hall.
I saw the large and small wooden boxes outside the Ganlu Temple, as well as several weirdly large rectangular pieces, wrapped in cloth densely.
Li Shimin couldn't help walking up to those gifts curiously.
Asked Li Wen, the steward of the Wu Palace who was responsible for delivering gifts and memorials.
"What are these things?"
"Your Majesty Weichen, these are brown mattresses, which are made of the most extreme mountain palm. Each of these four brown mattresses is one foot thick.
This mountain palm fiber mattress not only has excellent air permeability, but also has moderate elasticity, and the mountain palm mattress is not prone to insects and dirt, and has an excellent comfort. "
"In addition, it is also made of mountain palm. It is wrapped with more than ten kinds of precious Chinese herbal medicines such as Chuanxiong, Wangbuliuxing, and safflower, which can help sleep and calm the nerves.
"Then what is this?"
"Oh, this is a bamboo portable chair. Your Majesty, you only need to open it like this to turn it into a chair."
"And there is also a backrest, which will help your majesty to sit and rest temporarily when you are fishing by the Jinshui River without hurting your back..."
#####
Every time Li Shimin asks something, Li Wen will promptly state the name of the gift, as well as its usefulness and advantages.
It's just like the best gold medal sales.
The top quality winter bamboo shoots and dried bamboo shoots were eaten. Li Shimin also received this stuff last year. They were used for cooking, and they were indeed very delicious.
In addition, there are various kinds of wax, and there are even ten boxes of snake oil ointment.
Li Shimin asked over there, while Li Mingda took the letter written by Cheng Chubi to her, curiously looking for something in the pile of large and small boxes.
The Queen Changsun couldn't help but leaned forward curiously. "Xiao Sizi, what are you looking for?"
"Brother Cheng San said he gave me a special gift. He said it was a big, cute, and dumb animal doll."
Hearing the girl’s description, the first reaction of Empress Changsun was, should the boy Cheng Saburo give his doll image to Xiao Mingda, right?
If he dares to do this, the old man will ask your majesty to deduct all of your boy's ten-year salary.
Empress Changsun grinded her teeth and watched her daughter curiously holding the letter, looking for a box with a secret sign. Brother Cheng San said in the letter.
The lock of that box was engraved with his favorite peony pattern.
After asking for a long time, Li Shimin saw two grey bags placed together with a small wooden box.
Without waiting for Li Shimin's question, Li Wen opened one of the bags in front of him, revealing the gray cement powder inside, and then opened the small wooden box next to it.
"Your Majesty, these two bags contain the cement used by the Luzhou Metropolitan Government to lay the official road."
"The look inside this box is a concrete brick made with cement mixed with cinder and gravel."
Concrete bricks? Li Shimin walked to the big box and looked at the blue-grey bricks the size of blue bricks, which looked like stone.
He picked up a piece and held it in his hand, it felt a little heavier than the blue brick.
This thing is actually made of cement. Just looking at the appearance and texture, I am afraid it is not much worse than that of bluestone.
"The official road laid out of this cement is comparable to laying with bluestone slabs. It is not only very firm and durable, but also not afraid of water damage."
"In addition, the renovation of multiple wharfs on both sides of the Yangtze River near Luzhou is now nearing completion.
The old wooden and stone piers have been repaired into more tight cement piers..."
Li Shimin looked at this concrete brick, which seemed strange.
He really couldn't believe that the powder in this bag could be as hard as bluestone after being mixed with water.
"Is this thing as strong as you said?"
"Your Majesty, Cheng Changshi said that if your Majesty does not believe in the effect of cement, you can read this thing by UU reading www.uukanshu.com..."
Li Wen took out a kit from the wooden box and handed it to Li Shimin respectfully.
Li Shimin took the kit in a daze, and after opening it, there was a piece of paper filled with words.
There are a few eye-catching characters on it: instructions for making concrete slabs.
"..." Li Shimin looked at the manual, then took another look at the kit, and thought of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" created by the boy Cheng Saburo.
In the scene where Zhuge Liang gave people tips all day long, there was a feeling of being deeply offended.
Li Shimin pulled his face and handed the manual for making concrete slabs to Zhao Kun beside him.
"Make a concrete slab according to this instruction, and I will try it myself later.
If this thing is not as firm as he described above, I will deduct the kid's salary for next year. "
"..." Zhao Kun's expression was distorted for a while, and he nodded wildly to express his understanding.
#####
Li Shimin let out a suffocating breath, and heard the exaggerated cheers of the girl behind him. His face changed in an instant, and he turned his head away.
I saw the girl from a big box, took out a huge, weird thing that was half a head taller than the girl.
Li Mingda's two eyes were shining and his hands were on the four legs, two eyes, ears, and nose were black.
The other places are white, stupid-looking animal dolls.
This is a stuffed cotton inside, thick fluff on the outside, just as comfortable and supple as a real animal.
This giant doll alone is a masterpiece made by two velvet weaving masters from Persia, which took almost three months to produce.
Of course, this is something that Cheng Chubi made, using the carpet weaving craftsmanship of the Western Region Barbarians.
