I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 215 Please come out of the pit
After going down the mountain, they followed the national road all the way to the edge of Xiangzhou City, and the survey of the entire route was completed.

When everyone was confused and worried, it was finally over.

"Crush the stone, grind it into powder, mix it with clay, and then calcinate it. After that, mix it with the ashes from charcoal burning, and add semi-gypsum appropriately..."

Back at the guard camp, Zhao Xi just explained to Su Song.

It's time to attract business again, and Zhao Xi himself doesn't know if he can still take money out of the pockets of these scholar-bureaucrats.

As for the imperial court...forget it!How long has he been eating enough food, and he has saved the court the expense of tens of thousands of soldiers, and even made up for the deficit.

Zhao Xi doesn't like big things. It takes half a month to work. It's easy to work, but troublesome to bicker.

Therefore, he still has to rely on the means of merchants.

The key is that because of the manufacture of cement, Zhao Xi thought of coal mining again... How should I put it, Zhao Xi doesn't want to be controlled by anyone in anything.

This stall is big enough, and I feel a little out of control.

It's been three days. Could it be that the fairies are still not here today?Is it possible that there is nothing that needs to be discussed recently?
Zhao Xi tried it in the guard camp. Regardless of how primitive the method is, there is no such thing as adhesives. After the cement is molded, it is still harder than concrete, not even inferior to stones... exaggerated.

It's the third day, before following the father to deal with the memorial every day, Zhao Xi will mix a little cement according to the time when the lords come to the Chui Gong Palace every day, the purpose is to let the lords explore.

He also discovered that the ones he warmly posted to let others invest in them always failed, and the ones from Donggong who didn't show up could actually win over some people.

Checks and balances?Zhao Xi really doesn't believe how firm the hearts of these ministers and workers are to check and balance. If they really want to check and balance, then copper and iron ore, including wool, should not be mixed with any of them, and let Donggong do it by itself... Big deal After a few years, Zhao Xi really didn't believe that he couldn't get money later.

He's not being straightforward this time, let's be more tactful, don't we all like this?To put it bluntly, it doesn't seem like you can't show your intelligence if you don't do this.

Maybe they are all trying to hide their ears and steal the bell, and in the face of interests, they have no choice but to blend in, but they have to look at each other...the original intention of ministers and workers to check and balance the emperor cannot be thrown away.

Zhao Xi really didn't want to make the court full of enemies, and even dug a hole without thinking of burying all the ministers and workers in it.

Zhao Zhen is very happy to cooperate with his son in singing this play.All along, I was the last to understand.

Zhao Zhen was more anxious than his son to have such a chance to recruit ministers, and he was determined to find an excuse to call his husband here.

But my son said, you have to do a full set of acting...then do the full set.

The princes finally came, no matter if there is something urgent or not, I have to see the emperor in three days...

I thought the father and son would be very busy, but I didn't expect to play mud together.This scene really left the husbands at a loss for what to say.

I felt a little depressed for a moment, and I lost my mind when I was playing with things!How decent!

"The official family..."

"Hold on, gentlemen..."

That's going too far.Even if it's nothing important, when the princes arrived at the Chuigong Hall, two generations of emperors were just playing like this, why wait a moment?
"Officials, Your Highness, is it still fun? It's much more fun than complicated state affairs! Have you ever found childishness? Should you be an emperor!"

Sure enough, it was on fire.

"My lords, don't worry! This is not a plaything, but a new building material created by the prince. It was originally powder, but after being mixed with water, it is as hard as a stone after drying."

"I don't believe it, and the prince needs to verify it again and again. Therefore, in order not to slack off the government, the prince brought this thing to the Chugong Palace. Adjust it a little every day, and watch its changes the next day..."

The unhurried explanation is in line with the nature of the official.

Zhao Zhen also dropped the small shovel in his hand at this time, and slowly got up...

"This was three days ago, this was two days ago... what was reconciled yesterday has also condensed. You can take a look."

"If this thing really has this effect, it will save the burden of the servants' sanhe soil..."

Zhao Zhen displayed the cement bumps on the low table and tapped them a few times.

And Zhao Xi also felt that she was almost pretending.It’s just with cement, pour some water, and stir it. Is there so much to pay attention to?If we hadn't waited for the gentlemen to come, the matter would have been over long ago.

But the princes are still very cautious when it comes to the new things of His Royal Highness.

Wen Yanbo directly picked up the lump placed on the low table...it was very heavy, and it should be hard.Then with one hand, the two touched lightly.

Huh... It really means that the stones collided.With a little more force, it is not broken yet, but some powder falls off.

So, he tried again...

All these actions are stared at.Even Zhao Zhen heard from his son that he didn't dare to try like this.

"pat..."

This time, it broke open and became a block.However, such a force, even such a thin piece of stone, will shatter.

"Your Highness, is it made of mud?"

As he said that, Wen Yanbo also pointed to the mud in the wooden box that the father and son were playing with just now.

"That's true. The calcined lime in the guard camp was drenched by rain due to negligence, and there is a place in it that became firm after being drenched in water and sun."

"I went back to the root cause, and used it as a reference. After many attempts, I got this thing. Xi dared to speak nonsense, and I wanted to say it to you after being verified..."

No one cares why the guard camp burns lime, anyway, there are a lot of strange things in that place.

The court regards that place as His Royal Highness's own business, just like the Imperial City Secretary.

But this muddy stuff...

"Is there still powder?"

How could it not?I have been waiting for you for a long time.

But Zhao Xi still put on a look of reluctance, and took out a bag.

"Biwu is bonded to masonry. If it is placed on the ground, it cannot be peeled off after solidification. But it is not bonded to paper and wood. If you verify it, please don't put it on the ground."

This is not nonsense, if you don't bond the masonry, it is useless to simply mix the mud to make it firm.

Although they got the powder, these people have more doubts in their hearts.

Not only doubts about the powder, but also the behavior of the officials and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

For a long time, His Royal Highness always produced the finished product, and then sold the secret method of the formula, or only granted the right to sell it.I heard that another kind of sweet food came out, which was also created by His Royal Highness the Prince.

Why this time?

Zhao Xi didn't care if they were confused or not, as long as they verified the effect of this thing and could think of the purpose of this thing, that's enough.

All doubts can't stop their desire for money.

Zhao Xi didn't believe that these people would be willing to miss the prospect.

Besides, Zhao Xi really didn't want these ministers to play tricks of exchanging new and old coins.That's not something they can play.

The purpose of the new coin campaign is that Zhao Xi is preparing to harvest a batch of leeks, so that those merchants and landlords who are already very rich in Guochao can contribute to solving Guochao's financial difficulties.

He didn't want to provoke the courtiers at this time and bury the whole court.
