The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 282

After Su Yunduo got things in order at home, he started to clean up things outside.

As soon as she sat down in her small study, Zisu came in with tea and snacks and reported: "Girl, Guard Lin has something to ask for you."

Guard Lin is one of the four guards. He is a slender middle-aged handsome man in his 30s. I don't know why he is looking for her now. The guard comes in.

Guard Lin followed Zisu into the study room, clasped his fists at Su Yunduo, and said straight to the point: "I heard that Miss has troubles with the agency, and I have dabbled in the agency. I wonder if Miss can take me down there to have a look."

Su Yunduo's eyes lit up when he heard this. He didn't expect that there were such talents among the guards. Naturally, he couldn't miss it. He hurriedly took Guard Lin to the river beach, and explained to Guard Lin his ideas and requirements for opening and closing the gates along the way. and current problems.

Although Su Yunduo's description was a bit messy, Lin Huwei listened very carefully, and occasionally asked a question, but every sentence got the point, which aroused 12 expectations in Su Yunduo's heart.

Although Guard Lin hadn't had time to show his skills, Su Yunduo already felt in his heart that Guard Lin would definitely help her solve all kinds of problems in the opening and closing of the gate.

Guard Lin has already listened to Ning Zhongping's introduction, and he has a general improvement direction for the opening and closing of this gate. Now, after listening to Su Yunduo's description, he has a more definite improvement plan for the switch of this gate. , of course on-site observation is essential.

When they arrived at the excavation and construction site of the artificial lake, Lin Weiwei was also shocked by Su Yunduo's big handwriting. He really didn't expect to see such a large project in this remote mountain village.

Guard Lin was not in a hurry to see the opening and closing mechanism made by the foreman, but stood on the embankment and asked Su Yunduo some questions. From the area and depth of the artificial lake to the water exchange plan of the artificial lake, it almost involved Su Yunduo's understanding of the artificial lake. All plans for the artificial lake.

If she didn't know that this was a guard sent by Mrs. Lu, and Su Yunduo had no competitors in this area, she would have thought that Guard Lin was a scout sent by a competitor.

After asking these questions, Guard Lin walked around the construction site of the artificial lake again, still not in a hurry to look at the mechanism for opening and closing the gate, but squatting on the embankment to write and draw, shaking his head and nodding his head for a while. Su Yunduo's heart suddenly raised and suddenly fell, it was very ups and downs.

After about half an hour, guard Lin finally stood up, looked around the embankment again, and finally came to the gate, this time he looked more carefully, even the thickness of the gate , Take a soft ruler and measure it again and again.

Then, ignoring the eager eyes of the foreman and Su Yunduo, he sat down on the embankment, closed his eyes and meditated for a while, and when he opened his eyes, Su Yunduo saw a flash of joy in his eyes. Is there a plan?

"Miss Su, do you still have pen and ink?" Guard Lin asked Su Yunduo.

Su Yunduo nodded again and again, when Lin Huwei was writing and drawing with branches on the embankment, Su Yunduo asked Zisu to rush home to get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Although there were no tables and chairs on the embankment, there was also a temporary platform, and the paper was laid out on the platform. Lin Huwei picked up a pen and dipped some freshly ground ink from Perilla, and started to draw.

I don't know what the origin of this guard Lin is. He is indeed a master in the mechanism, but with a few strokes, in the eyes of outsiders, it is just a slight change to the original mechanism, but the foreman sees it like a copper bell, pointing at the guard Lin. His fingers were trembling with excitement for the conceptual diagram of the painting. Obviously, the change made by Lin Wei gave the foreman such a enlightenment, and Mao Sai suddenly realized.

"First try to make a small mechanism for opening and closing the gate according to this picture." Guard Lin handed the drawing paper to the foreman.

The foreman excitedly took over the drawings, went straight to the workshop without saying a word, and made a small model according to Lin Wei's drawings overnight.

Although it is only a small model, it has all internal organs. It is not easier to make than the real mechanism, but the foreman and his craftsmen forced them out overnight. The next day, everyone stared at the mechanism with red eyes as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Looking at Guard Lin, Su Yunduo was both moved and funny.

Lin Huwei tried this model several times, but he was not very satisfied, so he tried to change some places.

After several days of repeated revisions and experiments, the foreman finally led the craftsmen to start making according to the actual size. Guard Lin squatted in the workshop almost every day, paying attention to every detail.

After the mechanism for closing the ram is completed and installed in place, Su Yunduo tried the switch himself to know what a master is. This mechanism seems to have not changed much, but the operation process of closing and opening has been greatly simplified, and the safety has also been improved. improve.

After completing the mechanism of opening and closing the gate, Lin Weiwei helped Su Yunduo transform the waterwheel, so that the waterwheel that was originally just entering or exiting was combined into one, which not only saved wood, but also made the scene more beautiful.

I really didn't expect Mrs. Lu to have such talents under her staff!

It wasn't until he entered the capital that Su Yunduo knew that these four guards were all guards of the Zhen Guogong's mansion, and that the guard Lin was a master of the government under the Zhen Guogong. Arranged by the public.

The gate opening and closing mechanism has been properly resolved, and the waterwheel has been further improved. The progress of the artificial lake project has been accelerated again, and the progress of the artificial lake has also driven the progress of the terraced fields, which made Su Yunduo heave a sigh of relief. .

Started to really start all kinds of preparations for going to Beijing, so that the whole family could travel easily when they went to the capital, Su Yunduo packed the things that needed to be transported to the capital and sent them to the capital in advance.

The most important of these are preserved preserved eggs that have been pickled one after another in the past few months. These mature preserved eggs, wrapped in marl Su Yunduo, were processed by Tongshan with two servants. Wrapped with a thin layer of wax, this treatment is to prevent the plaster formula of pickled preserved eggs from being seen by those who are interested, and the second is to keep the preserved eggs fresh.

Sending preserved eggs to the capital ahead of schedule was also at Lu Jinkang's request.

That day Lu Jinkang sent twenty preserved eggs to the palace, and immediately won the favor of the nobles in the palace.

It's just that the quantity of [-] eggs is too small, only the Holy Majesty, the Empress, Concubine Zhen and the Empress Dowager tasted it twice, and the other empresses and even His Royal Highness only listened to it but never saw its appearance, let alone tasted it.

Although the Holy Majesty was not a person with a good appetite, he couldn't hold back the empress dowager's liking. The extremely filial Holy Majesty had to urge Lu Jinkang to find some more and send them to the palace.

This time Lu Jinkang learned his lesson, and he didn't agree to it outright, and he didn't confess to her according to Su Yunduo's wishes. He only said that it was a coincidence, and whether he could get another delicious food depends on the chance.

Even so, Lu Jinkang still passed the letter to Su Yunduo, asking Su Yunduo to send as many preserved eggs to the capital as possible, and Su Yunduo set the price himself.

The cost of preserved eggs is not high, because it is the only one in this family. Naturally, the price cannot be low. Su Yunduo gave Lu Jinkang a land price of [-] Wen per egg, and Lu Jinkang was responsible for the loss on the road.

Su Yunduo only discussed this price with Lu Jinkang, and didn't even know about Zisu, let alone Ning's.

How Lu Jinkang sells them and how much the price is is Lu Jinkang's own business. Even if he sells one or two, that is his ability and has nothing to do with Su Yunduo.
