What use do I want in this troubled world

Chapter 161 Building a House
"Then where do you plan to build the palace?" Don't you want to be king, of course the king must live in the palace.

"Huh?" Xu Wenfeng was stunned.

To be honest, I was filled with too many plans, and I really forgot to take myself into consideration. In the initial stage of my career, not only the desire for lust was lowered, but also the desire for material things.

She thought about it: "Let's talk about the construction of the palace next year. We don't have the material and financial resources this year. It's important to stabilize the market first."

The palace represents the face of the outside world, even if Xu Wenfeng doesn't care, it must be built, which symbolizes authority.

She scratched the drawing and circled a place: "Just here, just leave me a piece of land behind the house."

Yu Hongyi was not very satisfied, and tried to persuade him: "You also want to live in the desert? I don't think it is suitable. I suggest that the palace be built in an oasis."

Xu Wenfeng waved his hand: "If we don't make it so special, it will be a little bit more majestic and majestic. The Gobi area is so wide, and I want to build it as big as I want, but the oasis can't be opened."

"All right, I'll go back now and give orders. Pull over the materials to be used today, and start work tomorrow morning." Seeing her attitude, Yu Hongyi suddenly felt that it was useless.

Anyway, the girl will not change her mind easily.

"Okay, I will move there tomorrow and live on the construction site for a while." I feel like a brick, and I don't need to move it anywhere.

No way, she had to be there to guide and supervise them to master the whole process of the project, so that she could let go with peace of mind.

Because building a house in a place with poor soil quality requires laying piles to increase the strength of the foundation.

She wants to use the brick foundation method. The first step of the brick foundation is to spread panax notoginseng soil on the foundation of the house.

Panax notoginseng soil is mixed with white lime and loess according to the ratio of notoginseng, compacted and rammed repeatedly to form a layer of porcelain solid soil, this layer of soil is Panax notoginseng soil.

After smashing and tamping, lay bricks on it to enlarge the feet.

The first floor is paved with [-] bricks, and the upwards becomes Sanqi. On the foundation of Sanqi, the membrane is used to hit the ground beams, and then upwards become two or four walls.

This type of foundation has a very strong ability to resist pressure.

However, this construction method is much more cumbersome and complicated than building a house on top of the foundation as soon as the foundation is dug in the local area. You can't just throw away the blueprints and just build according to it.

It's always shallow on paper, and when most people can't even understand the drawings, explaining theoretical knowledge to them may not necessarily understand them.

Practical operation is the best way to learn, and what you learn is more solid.

In this way, a group of construction workers can also be brought out, and an experienced construction team can be formed to form a system, so that there is no need to do everything in the future.

Nearly a thousand people are building houses in full swing on the Gobi Desert, and those who stay in the oasis are also preparing for their new homes, doing some easy-to-handle carpentry, ranging from wardrobes and beds to stools and tubs.

The old people with nothing to do started to sew bedding clothes for winter.

In two or three months, I will be busy with the autumn harvest. Once the autumn harvest is over, the cold winter will come, so I have to prepare all the things that the cat will use in winter, so as not to catch me blindly at that time.

Given the current conditions, of course there is no cotton available, and the clothes for the winter are the furs that the Harkers have saved for ten years.

The winter temperature outside the customs is usually below -20 degrees Celsius.

When Xu Wenfeng was scratching his head and wondering where to get cotton, Duoji overheard her muttering and said, "Don't you have a lot of fur there?"

It was only then that Xu Wenfeng remembered the mountain of fur in the corner of the space.

When the Hark migrated, there were not many other things, but the most fur.

At that time, Xu Wenfeng took away the inventory of several warehouses for them.

Counting the clothes and bedding confiscated in the bandit village, washing and rinsing, sewing and mending can make it through the winter.

Anyway, the new house needs to repair the fireplace and kang. With coal, there is no shortage of fuel, so you don't need to wear thick clothes when you stay at home.

If you have to go out, the whole family will wear a set of thick winter clothes in turn.

The old people are busy with winter clothes, and the women go up the mountain in groups to pick the ripening wild fruits, and find some wild things to fill the food gap along the way.

In addition, with the increase of personnel, Xu Shengping, a doctor, obviously couldn't handle it.

So at the suggestion of his daughter, he recruited a group of people who were interested in medical skills, taught them carefully, and laid the foundation for the establishment of a medical family in the future.

Outside the oasis, construction is in full swing, and inside the oasis, everyone has chores to do.

The idle children follow Xu Shaoyuan's enlightenment to read and write, and the older ones need to learn both to read and to learn martial arts.

In short, there is no idler, and everyone can't wait to break it into three people.

Xu Wenfeng, who was disheartened all day long, supervised the work on the construction site to the extent that he could basically let go, and immediately rushed back to the oasis to start water conservancy affairs, researched windmills, and dug canals to divert water to the main city.

Not only did she need to dig a canal to drain the water, but she also planned to dig a large artificial lake at the junction of the oasis and the main city.

Lakes can not only regulate the climate, but also play an important role in enriching vegetation.

In addition, a dam needs to be built to intercept the river and store water. Although the river valley is full of water now, there was no human habitation here before.

As the population increases day by day, the area of ​​arable land expands, and in the future, farmland irrigation, residential water, and industrial water will be used.
The demand for water has risen in a straight line, and the water level in the valley cannot be kept constant at one stage.

You can't wait until there is a shortage of water before digging a well. Everything must be prepared for a rainy day.

The construction of dikes and dikes is a very large project. Xu Wenfeng rode a horse from the upper reaches of the river valley to the lower reaches, inspecting the terrain and measuring specific data.

After returning home, she didn't draw a picture immediately, but asked Qiu Ling to call Bei Sheng.

Later, Bei Sheng entered the felt tent with a tired face. He was teaching martial arts to the little devils in the oasis recently, and he was tired.

"Is there something wrong with the girl calling me?"

"Sit down." Xu Wenfeng motioned for Qiu Ling to serve tea, and then said, "Do you know much about the Mo family and the Gonglo family?"

Hearing her mention of these two great masters, Bei Sheng realized something: "As far as I know, the Mohists are good at mechanisms, craftsmanship and production, and the oranges, pulleys, and pulleys are from the hands of the Mohists."

Xu Wenfeng tapped his fingers on the table thoughtfully.

Jujube and potter's wheel are a kind of lifting tool made by using the principle of wheel shaft. The potter's wheel can also be used as a mechanical winch, such as a plastic table potter's wheel for making pottery blanks.

Even military offensive and defensive technologies can be developed on this basis.

The technology of the Mohists is obviously far ahead of other people in this world. If they can get their help, it will be like adding wings to a tiger.

Watching her contemplative state, Bei Sheng slowed down with interest before continuing: "Gongshuo is a skilled craftsman, obsessed with ingenious techniques, good at tools, construction and carpentry, and their craftsman skills have been highly respected by the world."

Noticing his choice of words, Xu Wenfeng asked, "An accident happened?"

"Ah."

Bei Sheng hesitated for a moment, and finally said,
"I don't know much. It seems like a hundred years ago. The Mohists and the Gongloists were persecuted by other sects as heretics. These two families gradually fell silent, faded out of the public's sight, and disappeared from the world."
