Chapter 227

Only Xiao Ming and Zhan Xingchang were left in the assembly hall of the governor's office.

While drawing drawings, Xiao Ming explained to Zhan Xingchang how to build the outer wall.

First of all, the wall will not be solid. If we want to build it, we should build it as a war fortress. Therefore, it is better to say that it is a wall than a war fortress.

Generally speaking, the wall is still a traditional wall shape, but the outer wall will be replaced by concrete structure. The inner wall is hollow, but the height of the wall five meters from the ground will be filled and compacted by soil. In this way, the cost will be saved, and the outer wall will be damaged, but the inner wall will not be broken.

On the other hand, five meters above the wall, there will be hollow rooms. These rooms will leave holes on the outer wall just enough for the spear to go out. During the war, soldiers can kill the climbing barbarian soldiers through these holes.

The height of this floor is about 2.8 meters, then the third floor and the fourth floor are all like this.

On the fifth floor, the holes will be enlarged to become holes where artillery can be extended but people can't get in. Starting from this floor, the artillery base is installed in the floor to set up artillery. On the upper four floors, there are such structures, which indirectly leave some holes for spearmen.

Generally speaking, the height of this wall is the same as that of the old one, which is about 20 meters. This is already a very high wall.

After the design came out, Zhan Xingchang was excited. "Even if the barbarians came to such a solid wall, they would only look and sigh."

"If it is built, Cangzhou City will at least not be as fierce as last time." Xiao Ming said.

As if the memory of the last war was still in front of us, Zhan Xingchang nodded, "it's just that your highness, I'm afraid you have to go to the scene to guide the construction of such a complex project. Otherwise, you can't talk on paper, and your subordinates are powerless."

"If you don't tell me about this, I'll save you from building a bean curd dregs project. Now I tell you that I want you to prepare slaves, cement, stones, wood and other materials in advance." Xiao Ming said.

In fact, the concrete structure is not complicated. It mainly lies in the ligation of steel bars and the support of wood formwork. For craftsmen who are proficient in carpentry, this is no exception.

The only cost is steel.

However, at this stage, Xiao Ming can't produce steel bars of modern technology level, so he can only let the steel workshop imitate as much as possible. After all, the wisdom of the working people is infinite.

After telling Zhan Xingchang to prepare materials in advance, Xiao Ming went back to the palace.

At this meeting, there are still many problems in the fiefdom, but at least one point is that the people now have at least surplus grain in their hands, and they don't worry about having no food to eat.

However, apart from the staple food, the people have no food to eat, let alone other cash crops.

This is also the problem he will solve in the next step. After all, in the future, industry will still need a lot of raw materials, such as cotton, silk, hemp and other crops.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming thought of tung oil, a kind of waterproof coating specially used for ships. His fiefdoms were also scarce, which he had to spend money to buy from other places.

"It's not easy to develop this industry." Xiao Ming sighed and understood how great the complete industrial system was.

This will not be like he is now either lack of this material, or lack of that part.

Back in the bedroom, Xiao Ming picked up his pen and drew architectural drawings, which are divided into four categories: general layout, concrete structure, steel structure and node.

The reason why he wants to be so professional is to lay a foundation for the construction industry in Qingzhou. In modern times, the country is known as the No.1 construction country. He wants to establish his reputation from now on.

After tossing all day, he basically drew the drawings in the evening, but his hands were very tired.

"Your Highness, why haven't you had your lunch yet?"

When lvluo comes in with dinner, she sees that Xiao Ming hasn't eaten lunch. She is angry.

Xiao Ming said with a smile, "I forgot it for a while."

"Your Highness, it's forgetting to eat and sleep, but it's important for your health." The green Luo cares a way.

In one year, Xiao Ming and the two girls got along more and more naturally. He said, "I know. I know. Now you are as wordy as aster."

Lvluo is very timid. She used to speak very little in front of Xiao Ming, but now she is more and more daring. However, Xiao Ming likes it. It's boring to have a Muggle around her.

Taking the lunch away, lvluo suddenly remembered something and said, "Your Highness, is this loom ready? Elder sister aster and I have already been to the textile workshop. If the textile machine arrives, we will go to the nearby county to find some clever girls to work in the textile workshop. "

"Well In a few days, when I come back from Dengzhou, there seems to be something wrong with the equipment department in the production of textile machines. I have to go and see for myself. " Xiao Ming is a little depressed.

Before he went to Chang'an, he asked the equipment department to handle the matter, but Xiao Ming was not there. These craftsmen made textile machines for the first time. As expected, something went wrong.

"Your Highness is going to Dengzhou again?" There is something wrong with lvluo's look.Xiao Ming asked, "yes, what's the matter?"

"Your Highness, before entering the palace, lvluo was born in Dengzhou. Later, she was sold to Chang'an and was taken into the palace by the empress. It's been more than ten years."

"Are you from Dengzhou?" Xiao Ming said dumbly, "why didn't you say that earlier?"

"Your Highness has never asked." Lvluo said in a low voice.

Xiao Ming said with a smile: "I've neglected that. Since you are from Dengzhou, what do you know about Dengzhou and where are your parents? I can take it home this time. "

Speaking of this, lvluo's eyes were slightly red, and said: "Your Highness, lvluo's parents were fishing at sea in the early years, and they were killed by the Japanese pirates at sea. That year, it was for her parents to buy a coffin, and lvluo sold her body for some silver. If we say that her relatives, I'm afraid only one elder brother is still alive now, but at that time, her elder brother insisted on going out to sea to avenge her parents, and now she doesn't know her life or death 。”

At last, lvluo began to cry softly.

Every woman who sells herself has a miserable history, otherwise she would not be sold at a young age.

He said: "in this case, you can go to Dengzhou with me. First, you are familiar with Dengzhou, maybe you can help me. Second, you can go back to your hometown to visit."

"Thank you, your highness. I'll go back and clean it up now." Green Luo thanks a way.

Before, lvluo didn't dare to mention it, because the slave who sold herself could no longer have any contact with her family. If Xiao Ming was easygoing, she didn't dare to mention it.

Looking at lvluo, who jumps out like a deer, Xiao Ming can't help shaking his head. I'm afraid it won't be easy to go to Dengzhou this time.
