My husband Zhuge Kongming

Chapter 342 Chapter 340

The difference between the road rollers of this era and those of later generations is not that great.

The power is different, it uses horses.

The materials of the rollers are different, the inner stone and the outer steel are used.

Although crude, it is enough to deal with the dirt roads of this era.

After listening to Huang Yueying's explanation, Chen Yue's eyes lit up, "If this is the case, it will save a lot of manpower."

"If Mr. Chen wants it, I can write a book..." Huang Yueying was taken aback suddenly.

She remembered that in the regulations she negotiated with Kuai Liang and the others at that time, it was required to use road rollers to compact the road surface, and she also pointed out that road rollers could be ordered from the nearby Xinghan Trading Company.

This... Why didn't Mrs. Chen order it?
"Thank you so much, Mrs. Chen." Chen Yue laughed.

Huang Yueying let out a breath, "I don't know who from Mr. Chen's family went to Xiangyang on this road?"

"It's my uncle."

"Then did your clan uncle mention the steamroller?"

"Never." Chen Yue shook his head.

Huang Yueying's complexion became even worse, asshole, no matter what era, there are people who cut corners!
Fortunately, this problem was discovered today, otherwise, when the road is built, it looks like nothing on the surface, but when it is used, all kinds of problems will come out!

These aristocratic families can't think that the price of this road roller is high, can they?

After talking about this, Huang Yueying asked Chen Yue to add some eggs or meat to the people's meals every few days.

Chen Yue agreed again and again, thinking in his heart that the female gentleman is benevolent after all.

……

After the matter was resolved, Huang Yueying returned to Wancheng.

A letter was sent back to Xiangyang.

……

Xiangyang.

Liu Biao holds his grandson in his arms, enjoying the family happiness.

He handed over most of the affairs to Liu Cong. With Kuai Liang and Cai Mao around, Liu Cong couldn't make any big mistakes.

However, a letter from Huang Yueying interrupted this warmth.

roller?
He knew about it.

When the big families were called to talk about road construction, it was also stipulated that the roadbed must be flattened and compacted with a road roller before cement can be poured.

As a result, the families even wanted to skip this step directly?
A bunch of Pixiu, only in and out?

Through Ah Chu's hands, they have made a lot of money, but they are still so stingy, and they are really angry with him.

Angrily, someone called Liu Cong here, and when he saw Liu Cong's young face, he knew...why it happened.

Liu Cong is young, and the aristocratic family thinks it doesn't matter.

Even if he came forward to preside over that incident, it is estimated that many aristocratic families would not buy road rollers, which is what they call "saving if you can".

Liu Cong took Liu Biao's letter, and after reading it, he laughed angrily, "This group of people... really think there is no supervision?"

Liu Biao waved his hand, "Most of the supervisors are from the Achu clan. There are not that many people. Maybe some places haven't taken care of it yet, but we have to guard against it."

"My son understands, so I will write to let everyone pay attention to this problem."

"Yes." Liu Biao nodded.

Seeing that Liu Biao had nothing else to do, Liu Cong withdrew.

As soon as he left, an attendant reported to him that the Jiangdong envoy... asked to see him.

Liu Cong rolled his eyes, "That Lu Zijing is really thick-skinned!"

"The young man...see you?"

"See." Liu Cong said indifferently, "Why didn't you see me?"

That Lu Su has the cheek to come to the door again and again, and he can ask for two counties again and again, to see who can spend the other.

Ah Chu said, you don't have to be polite to Jiang Dong.

……

Seeing that the wheat season in Jingzhou was about to be harvested, Lu Su couldn't wait any longer.

Originally, he wanted to see how Jingzhou planted rice after harvesting the wheat, but his people couldn't find any relevant news at all.

He knew that Zhou Yu was still experimenting this year, but no one knew if the experiment would be successful.

How to make up for the missing days?

Where did the seedlings directly transplanted in Jingzhou come from?
So, he still had no choice but to come to the door again. As for whether to let go of the bottom line this time...Of course not.

He had to see it first, see it with his own eyes, if it really didn't work...then he would hand in the bottom line.

……

Jiangdong.

In a certain paddy field, Zhou Yu was thinking hard about the newly planted rice this year.

The sown rice has grown long enough so it can be harvested.

However, the growth time of winter wheat and summer rice is not enough.

In Jingzhou, rice seedlings are directly transplanted.

But if he transplanted the rice seedlings from this paddy field to the paddy field of winter wheat and summer rice, wouldn't there be a piece of land in this field?It's too late to replant again!
He didn't know that for transplanting rice seedlings, the rice seedlings had to be spaced apart.

……

Huang Yueying didn't know about Jiangdong's difficulties.

Be it Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, or Lu Su, Jiangdong's difficulties will only benefit Jingzhou.

After writing the letter, she also checked the account books checked by the children the next day, and there was no doubt.

I wanted to find another way before, and I had some clues.

"The Qinghui workshop is newly built, and more common people are selected to do the work. At least one or two people are selected for a family. Do you understand?"

"promise."

"If you are a tenant farmer of the gentry, you can also recruit."

"promise."

"If it's a slave or a child, I'll recruit!" Huang Yueying made up her mind.

She originally wanted to exclude the hidden population of the gentry. These people are regarded as the private property of the nobles in this era. Unlike tenant farmers, they still have some personal freedom.

But the development of all walks of life needs people. If one person is hidden in your family and one person is hidden in my family, then in the end, there will be a shortage of human resources.

Therefore, she needs to find an opportunity to negotiate with various families. The direct reason...of course is that there are not enough people.

If it is not enough, it will affect everyone's ability to make money.

Since you have so many people in your hands, it is always possible to free some of them to work.

Released to work, of course also paid.

It's just that she needs to negotiate whether the salary should be handed over.

Thinking of this, Huang Yueying made a list in her hand, and then wrote to each one.

First of all, the workshops in various places are short of manpower, the production of Qinghui is insufficient, and the progress of the construction of Qinghui Road is too slow, and then they are said to ask them to help, send some people to work, and of course, they will also pay wages and provide food.

It is also said that after the Qinghui Road is repaired, each family can collect tolls, and only with more people can the construction of Qinghui Road be accelerated.

Dozens of letters made her wrist hurt a little.

According to the considerations of the aristocratic family, if you become a man, earn a wage, save a share of food, and speed up the construction of the Qinghui Road, why not do it?
"When the gentry are willing to send people to work, you will ask carefully. Who is in the family, no matter how big or small, write it down, understand?" Huang Yueying urged.

The person in charge of the Wancheng branch nodded, "Understood."

"All the recorded materials will be sent to Chu'an every other month."

"promise."

Huang Yueying's eyes darkened again. Before the big liquidation, she must first figure out how many anonymous people are still in the hands of this group of people!

As for the extra money and food, she always has a way to make them spit it out.
