Chapter 203

The four brothers muddled through the afternoon until the sun tilted to the West and the dry heat in the air slowly disappeared.

"Aunt fish! Get me another bowl of cold noodles!" Chumo sat under the willow tree in the backyard and shouted with an empty bowl.

Since the fish master ran the fish champion building, Merton lived a dark life for several days, and the chef of the ink house was replaced by Aunt fish. Although Merton has endless theories in future generations, he is also a theorist.

At noon, the brothers didn't eat when it was hot. When it was a little cooler at the moment, they asked aunt fish to eat a few bowls of cold noodles.

"Coming!"

Aunt Yu looks at Chumo's empty bowl with satisfaction. She takes out a lot of noodles from a large basin of cold water and puts them into Chumo's bowl. It's delicious to pour special soup on it.

"Aunt fish, give me a bowl, too!

"I want it too!"

Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also handed over their empty bowls one after another.

"Good! Good! There are all."

Aunt fish said with a smile. For a cook, seeing that his talent is so popular is the biggest compliment.

After serving two bowls of rice, aunt Yu looked at her young master with hopeful eyes.

Merton touched his stomach and waved his hand. He didn't have such a good appetite as the three.

Aunt Yu shakes her head regretfully. Her young master is good at everything, but he doesn't eat much. Like these three young men, Chumo is ready to add the third bowl.

After dinner, the sun had set, and Qin Huaiyu didn't want to go at all.

"Why, the three uncles are not at home today?" Merton asked curiously when he saw that the three were not in a hurry. Usually at this time, the three people usually have to get up and leave.

"Don't worry, my father is staying in the military camp today. I said I wouldn't go back tonight before I left." Chumo shook his head and said.

"Eh! My father also said to stay in the barracks today?" Qin Huaiyu said in surprise.

The three men immediately looked sideways at Wei Chi Baolin. Wei Chi Baolin also nodded heavily.

Merton immediately brightened his eyes and said, "since the emperor is going to Jiucheng palace for summer vacation, what about the three uncles?"

"Of course we should go to escort together!" Qin Huaiyu and her three people immediately brightened their eyes and felt a burst of excitement in their hearts. If Qin Qiong and others went to Jiucheng palace together, wouldn't there be no one to discipline them anymore.

"It was the same last year!" Wei Chi Baolin added. They immediately thought of it and nodded one after another,

"Hey, hey, hey!" their tacit thoughts became active.

"Fuber!"

Merton put down the empty bowl in his hand and shouted.

Fu Bo answered and said with a smile, "young master, what can I do for you!"

"Summon me twenty Mohist children!" said Merton with a big hand.

"Yes, young master!"

At present, the Mohist family is obedient to Merton. Fubo didn't even ask why. He immediately took orders. There are not a few children of the Mohist village in Chang'an city. It's easy to find more than 20 people.

"Why do you want so many people?" Qin Huaiyu frowned.

Merton said proudly, "even your majesty has gone to spend the summer. It can be seen how difficult this summer will be. Naturally, we can't go to Jiuhua palace. We don't have to find a way by ourselves. I think it's better to ask others than ourselves. How about building a summer resort by ourselves."

In this era of no air conditioner and no fan, if you want to spend this rare summer in history with a few palm fans alone, Merton will not be cold (head) but (big) chestnut (sweat).

"Can you make it yourself?" the three were very interested, but they wondered.

Merton said confidently, "don't worry, keeping it will open your eyes."

The next day, the three people staying in Mo's house were awakened by a loud voice.

"Yawn!"

Qin Huaiyu yawned, put on a dress, pushed open the door and looked up at the sky. The East had just turned white.

"Good morning!"

The doors of the two adjacent rooms open, revealing Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin's heads.

"Why is it so noisy, Merton?" Qin Huaiyu yawned and asked.

"Don't know?" they shook their heads, opened Merton's door and found no one inside.

"It should be in the back garden!" Qin Huaiyu said, pointing to the source of the voice.

"Go! Go and have a look!" the three woke up and walked back to the yard.

When they went to the backyard, they first found Merton's figure under the weeping willow and the huge pit two feet in front of him.

Qin Huaiyu approached and looked at the huge pit. Many Mohist children were digging at the bottom of the pit and putting it into a huge hanging basket.

Around the pit, there are two steel cable booms operating at the same time. The hanging basket filled with soil is lifted out with a huge hanging chain and placed on the four-wheel carriage waiting on the side.

After a while, the four wheeled carriage was already full of soil. Immediately four horses pulled the carriage away, and the next carriage quickly filled it.

"The depth in the East is four feet, don't dig too much! The depth in the south is six feet, pay attention to the distance from the willow, the depth in the north is nine feet, and step up the drainage." Merton commanded aside.

Soon, the earth pit with a radius of two feet has been completed. Many Mohist children tamp the soil while draining water, even around.

"What are you doing?" Qin Huaiyu didn't understand. He dug such a big hole overnight.

"This is my brother's summer resort in the future," Merton said proudly, pointing to the pit.

"Ah!" the three looked at the pit and suddenly felt a chill.

"Merton, I've heard that boars are usually covered with mud in the mud pit to avoid the heat. Brother, don't do that!" Chumo shivers his goose bumps.

"Bah! You're just a wild boar?" Merton was also cold. He shivered and said, "don't worry, this is only preliminary construction. You'll know later."

At this time, Xu Jie came over, followed by two fully loaded four-wheel carriages.

"Young master, the bluestone you want has been sent." Xu Jie wondered. Early in the morning, he got Merton's instructions and went to the street to buy bluestone. He thought Merton wanted to repair the road again.

With a wave of Merton's big hand, a group of Mohist children immediately filled up the bluestone slabs and lifted them into the pit one by one. First, the bottom of the pit, then the four walls, and finally the surrounding banks were fully paved. Under the skillful hands of Mohist children, even the edges and corners were handled very beautifully.

"Water injection, scouring!" at Merton's command, a waterwheel was set up and pulled by a horse. A large amount of well water gushed out into the pool. The washed muddy water was soon drained away by the prepared Mohist children.

After three successive washes, the water finally became clear.

Everyone in the pool withdrew, and a large amount of well water was continuously injected. Looking at the rising water level, the bluestone slab below was clearly visible. Coupled with the reflection of weeping willows nearby, the pool water had a faint blue halo.

Soon, a very modern swimming pool appeared in front of everyone.
