Sui Dynasty: I, Yang Guang, am both scrupulous and stable

Chapter 87 Crazy Bidding
Yang Guang had arranged things for the Japanese country, but he did not have time to rest because of this. Instead, he became even busier because the previous group of people now started bidding crazily.

In the past two or three days, five of the first batch of tender documents had already been placed in front of him.

It is different from modern bidding, because it is necessary to choose a good plan. Even if it fails, Yang Guang will still let them continue to bid again. In this case, everyone's enthusiasm will rise.

Compared with some other writers who started writing, I bought a book and continued writing. I submitted articles like crazy. If it didn’t work, I submitted it to a few more editors.

Yang Guang looked at the tender document that was handed over, and specially pulled Yu Wenkai over to look at it together. The tender document also had to include a budget to avoid exaggerated and unrealistic plans.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

Don't say it, don't say it, the imagination of ancient people is really beyond Yang Guang's imagination. The submitted plan is not only unconstrained, it can also be said to be fantasy literature.

Open your arms and let him think, he can think of anything.

Hundred-foot-tall buildings, Buddha Casino, Lotus Pagoda, and the most outrageous plan is to dig a large pool in the middle of the brothel and place a huge Guanyin to give birth to children.

What the hell are you doing? Do you think the business is good or something is wrong? Why don't you put a Guanyin in your business premises?Who dares to come.

Yang Guang looked at these plans and was angry and funny, but at least these people were doing their best.

Yu Wenkai smiled cheerfully: "Your Highness, the plan is very interesting, but I'm afraid these houses are not easy to build. They are too difficult. They just rely on painters to make them look good."

"We have to set some conditions for them. For example, the height of this floor cannot be too high, at least it cannot be higher than the walls of the imperial city. Also, at least this thing must be buildable. Wang Yi will send people to inform everyone. If they are selected and fail to be built, I will arrest them for deceiving the Sui Prince and send them to prison and torture them severely."

We still have to make some restrictions, otherwise it will be too chaotic. If this group of people were brought to do PPT in modern times, they would all be talented people.

Yu Wenkai took time out of his busy schedule to look at these things today, but they were all useless. Yang Guang felt quite embarrassed.

Yu Wenkai said: "Your Highness can show me these plans in the future. I am very interested and it has inspired a lot of ideas in me."

"Don't comfort me, these plans are of no use at all."

"That's not true. Slowly, good plans will appear. Your Highness's method is very good. Only in competition will good ideas continue to appear."

Let’s not talk about this unhappy thing, let me show you something.

Yang Guang then took Yu Wenkai to the brick factory, where Li Yuan was already waiting.

Yu Wenkai was very satisfied with Li Yuan. Although he didn't talk much, he never failed to provide the materials needed for construction.

Because of Yang Guang's incentive policy and the blessing of 996, the construction of Daxing City is accelerating, and the required materials are accelerating. Li Yuan is under a lot of pressure, but he has not heard any complaints. Instead, he is working hard to ensure quality and quantity, and he has done a good job. very good.

"His Royal Highness King Jin."

"How is the thing that my cousin asked you to study last time?"

Li Yuan said quite confidently: "His Royal Highness asked me to mix limestone, clay, coal and other materials, calcine them, and then grind them into powder. We have tried the proportions many times, and now there are several with better results. It is just because of the recent brick The demand for stone is too great, so I haven’t tried them all yet, and I haven’t found the best ratio yet.”

"Well, take what's in the best condition right now."

The craftsmen brought over several pots of gray powder. This is what Yang Guang ordered Li Yuan and his men to study, cement dust.

Yu Wenkai looked at this thing curiously, and then Yang Guang ordered people to bring sand, add water and mortar, mix it, and then spread it between the two bricks to connect them.

"Your Highness, what is this?"

"This is a new type of building material called cement. When it dries completely, the two bricks will stick together. My cousin took out the one he tested before and took a look."

Li Yuan took out the bricks they had used for testing before. The two bricks were previously glued together with cement. After they were completely dry, they looked like they had grown together. Of course, they haven't tested all the proportions yet, so they don't know what the existing bricks are. Is the recipe the best.

Yu Wenkai took the brick in his hand and broke it with all his strength, but he couldn't break it open at all. As an architect, he immediately understood the function of this thing. This is a nearly perfect building material. After hardening, it is harder than bricks. It’s even higher, and it’s in powder form, so it’s easy to transport.

"Your Highness, when will this material be put into use?"

"Let's test it again. There's no rush to find the best formula ratio before using it. I think with this thing, when we build buildings, the plasticity and building height can be further improved."

Yu Wenkai thought carefully: "Yes, Your Highness! It seems that I have to come to the brick factory more often."

It will take a long time for cement to be officially put into use in large quantities, but there is no rush. What Daxing City is currently working on is the imperial city and city walls, as well as underground pipelines for the residential market. The imperial city planning has been completed and will not be deliberate. Changes, other buildings will have to wait later.

Yang Guang pulled Li Yuan over and said, "Cousin, the cement needs to be tested by additional manpower, and then come to my house after the Mid-Autumn Festival. I told you about the Construction Bureau last time, and we will think about it carefully."

"Understood, Your Highness."

……

Yang Guang returned home tired one day, and happened to meet Xiao Menglan returning from the palace. Today, Queen Dugu invited her two daughters-in-law to the palace to discuss the Mid-Autumn Festival.Xiao Menglan looked tired, but when she saw Yang Guang, she still smiled and said, "Your Highness, thank you for your hard work."

"What did the queen mother say to you today?"

"The queen mother asked me and the emperor's sister-in-law to come to the palace together to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. The queen mother first chatted with the two of us. There was also a woman from the Han Dynasty palace, the Doulu family."

Obviously, this was his fifth brother's "child bride". Since he had no children, the emperor and empress arranged a wife for him early. But because it was not very honorable to say it, they kept it secret. Everyone knew it, but except for the old man Yang Jun, the king of the Three Qin Dynasty, almost no one mentioned this matter.

This time Queen Dugu also thought about whether to let her enter the palace together, and finally decided to let her enter the palace together with her two sisters-in-law to help.

This matter is disgraceful, but she did not do anything wrong. On the contrary, she told the playful King of Han to study more. She was not wrong, but she avoided her in everything. It was inevitable that she would have thoughts in her heart, so it was better to be generous. .

"What did the Queen Mother say?"

"The queen mother said that we are all princesses who are in charge of the royal palaces. From now on, we must rarely entertain guests and be more familiar with the royal rules. This time, I will follow her, take a good look, and learn from them."

"that's it?"

Xiao Menglan understood: "Your Highness, you want to ask about the Crown Princess."

"You saw it all."

Xiao Menglan smiled lightly, then turned to complain: "When the Crown Princess first arrived in the palace, she started crying when she saw her mother. She didn't say much, but she kept crying, and her mother started to lament."

"The Queen Mother said: You are the Crown Princess, and your father is His Majesty's most trustworthy minister. You can use some means, isn't it just a few charming women? If you want to live up to your expectations, you can take care of them all. This is the daughter of the Gaojuan family. It was too much of a negotiation to make you think that all women are like her, and now you can’t deal with a few seductive bitches?”

Empress Dugu was also angry at her for not arguing about her misfortune. She only came here to cry once. Every time she entered the palace, she must cry. She must have a big head. Moreover, the princess was now very nervous. She felt uncomfortable when she saw the maid in the palace getting closer to Yang Yong. When the problem arises, he gets angry and gets into trouble with Yang Yong from time to time, which makes Yang Yong dislike him even more.

Queen Dugu has finally seen clearly that it is no longer possible for the relationship between the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince to be as close as other young couples. She now places her hope on the Crown Princess to give birth to a legitimate son as soon as possible.

Even if the Crown Princess doesn't give birth, it's okay for Gao Jiong's daughter to give birth.

Queen Dugu felt that although Yang Yong was lecherous, he would not be so stupid as to let Mr. Concubine give birth to a son. She should still have some brains in this regard.

"What happened next, what did the Crown Princess say?"

"The Crown Princess cried bitterly, and the Queen Mother stopped her from crying when she heard that she was upset. She took the three of us to familiarize ourselves with the rules and etiquette in the palace, and the Queen Mother also warned me and Doulu, saying..."

"say what?"

"The Queen Mother said that we two should not be as weak as the Crown Princess. We only know how to cry and complain. If there are any seductive women outside who seduce the Prince, we should show off the airs of the Princess and drive them out."

After speaking, Xiao Menglan looked at Yang Guang seriously, and Yang Guang smiled: "Haha, how can the queen teach you these things."

"The Queen is also doing it for our own good, but Your Highness, if you want to find a concubine, I have no objection, but it cannot be those coquettish bitches who cause trouble. I don't want to make you angry, but I will do what the Queen said to such a person. Qing Qing goes out, or the reputation is ruined. Such a person cannot stay in the house even if he has a respectful character. Being with her will ruin my own reputation."

Xiao Menglan was very serious when she said this, and she said it after careful consideration. Yang Guang sighed, is this a feudal society?
"Your prince, am I this kind of person?"

……

While the Crown Princess was learning the rules in the palace, the Crown Prince Yang Yong was at the Yun Dingxing Mansion.

Today I came here specifically to see Yun Luo, but for some reason Yun Luo walked away angrily when she saw him. Her shy appearance made Yang Yong like him even more. She always knew what Yang Yong liked best.

Yang Yong grabbed Yun Luo and said, "Why has Yun Luo been so angry in the past two days and not seen me?"

"Your Highness has gone back on his word. My little daughter is already His Highness's, but His Highness doesn't want to marry me. How can I have the nerve to go out and meet people?"

"Hey, I will definitely marry you if I say I will marry you."

"Your Highness, you cannot lie to me."

"When have I ever lied to you? I always keep my word. It makes me feel itchy not to see you these days. Let's fight for three hundred rounds."

Yun Luo nudged Yang Yong, trying to refuse but then welcoming him: "Your Highness, can you take me to the Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet?"

"What's the point of going there? It's not interesting."

"I just want to go there, it's so lively."

"All right, all right, I'll take you there."
