Farmers' group pet: the blessings of powerful ministers are soft and deceitful

Chapter 641 Start building the road

The master respectfully saluted Jiang Shi and gently persuaded him to leave these dirty places.

Jiang Shi waved his hand and said, "No problem, I just like chatting with big guys."

I used to live in the middle of Beijing with a single family, and the farthest I could go was to visit Master Xu's house nearby.

Now that we have arrived in Suizhou, the weather is gradually getting warmer. I know that road construction is the first major task my son-in-law will do when he comes to Suizhou, so he can't help but follow suit.

Shen Lan went to inspect the place, but no one was watching the road construction, so he was not at ease.

When he got to the place, Jiang Shi could still kill some time by chatting with these common people.

The master had no choice but to let the two yamen servants watch to prevent the master from bumping into each other.

At the same time, he was given the title of steward and asked him to lead a team to build roads.

With the status of a steward, the common people respected Jiang Shi again and spoke politely.

After Jiang Shi became a supervisor, he still had wages, so he went to the road construction site with more joy every day.

Lin Ru saw him coming back dirty every day, and said, "I'm old, but I still like to join in the fun."

As soon as Jiang Shi came home, he quickly washed off the dirt on his body, and said: "What is joining in the fun? Shen Lan has raised so much money, and he is not in Suizhou City now, and no one is watching. It doesn't matter how well this road is built." I don’t know, Ning Ning went to see the store again, so I’m the only one who is free.”

He was quite proud when he said it, and added, "Besides, people over there don't let me do heavy work, just let me watch a little bit every time."

Lin Ru said: "Come on, you can do it if you like."

At the end of the month, the cement began to be transported truck by truck to the road construction section, causing the people in the city to go out frequently to watch.

Jiang Ning watched at the beginning, watching the workers step by step to surround the two sides of the road with baffles, then pour the mixed cement in the center, and finally use the push plate to flatten and compact the ground.

After doing this, wait for six or seven days until the ground is dry and you can walk normally.

The first [-]-meter-long cement road was repaired. Not only the surrounding people, but also the wealthy businessmen who donated money also took horse-drawn carriages to check and accept the new road.

The carriage walked smoothly on the cement road without any swaying at all, which immediately surprised these wealthy businessmen.

The people also tried to step on the new road one by one. When people walked on it, they were stable and firm, and they didn't knock their feet, just like the bluestone slabs.

Everyone couldn't help but look at the new cement road with admiration.

The person who donated this road was Mr. Yang from Suizhou City. Looking at the people and other masters who came to watch, he said cheerfully, "Look, I donated this road. In the middle of the road, I wrote my name."

The master of the other family saw it and sighed: "I chose the road section on the west side of the city, and I don't know when it will be repaired there."

"It's coming soon," another person said, "Didn't you see that after the road is leveled, pour that cement down and flatten it, and you can repair a thousand meters in one day."

"Oh, after this road is repaired, it will be more convenient to go to my wife's natal house in the future. It will be faster to walk on it in a carriage!"

"It's not easy to damage the road if it gets wet, and if it snows in the future, you don't have to worry about being unable to go out."

"I don't know where Mr. Shen got his supernatural powers, but he can still cultivate in this way! You have learned a lot!"

"After this road is repaired, I will go to Sanchuan to get the goods in the future, but I can go back and forth on the same day!"

The common people were discussing happily, when Shen Chenlan came back from Linping.
