Mohist Tang

New house for marriage! This is more than a custom in later generations, even Great Tang is the same.

Mohist Village, from the previous single village, solved the problem of singles in the village as quickly as possible within two years. Of course, Mohist Village has continued to rise and the situation is very good. In addition to the increasing wealth of the villagers, there are also There is a direct relationship between Mohist Village and the provision of a new house for each couple.

In the era of Great Tang, ordinary persons homes were just mud embryo houses covered with thatch. Except for the landlords house and the city, where there would be brick houses, the brand-new brick houses in Mohist Village were no less than Now the villa.

In addition, Mohist Family Son’s hard work is to make progress. Marriage has a new house and the village is rich. Naturally, a daughter is willing to marry Mohist Village. After all, no parents are willing to let their daughter marry and suffer for a lifetime.

Mo Dun, the biggest contributor to the change of Mohist Village, is about to get married. Naturally, it is necessary to rebuild a new house. As early as after Mo Dun and Princess Changle settled in love, Mohist Residence had begun secretly preparing for Mo Duns new house. .

At that time, a house on the east side of Mohist Residence wanted to change hands. Mohist Village found the previous owner, spent a lot of money to buy it, and has been rebuilding it in secret. Now, the general building is about to be completed after a year.

“One, two!”

Following the loud yelling of several Mohist Family Son brothers, under common force, the wall blocking Mohist Residence and the east courtyard collapsed, revealing one Exquisite courtyard, originally this courtyard has been abandoned, but after a year of improvement in Mohist Village, it has already changed its appearance.

In the middle of the east courtyard, a three-story building is impressive. Anyone will see it at first glance. If someone is here, they will recognize it at a glance. This is a common villa for later generations. Structure?

“How is this possible?”

If any bricklayer in a Chang’an City sees this scene, it will be extremely shocked, because brick houses generally only have one Only two floors. If you build two floors, it will lack support, and it will not be able to stand the gravity and crack in a long time. The house in the east courtyard of Mohist Residence is actually three floors.

“Young Master!”

The brother of Mohist Family Son who was cleaning the bricks and tiles saw Mo Dun approaching and got up to salute.

Mo Dun nodded in return, stepping on the chaotic bricks, came to the east courtyard villa.

In front of the villa, a Taoist priest with black hair and Wu Meiniang kept throwing stones into the ash-gray mud in front of him, and soon round pits appeared in the smooth mud. .

“The round crater on the surface of the moon really was made by impact.” Wu Meiniang couldn’t help but cheer. Since Daoist School has donated an astronomical Telescope, Mo Dun naturally has nothing to hide. As the Head Disciple of the Mohist Family, Wu Meiniang immediately used Mohist Family’s own Telescope to watch the surface of the moon.

“What the benefactor of Wu said, and Poor Daoist thinks so?” The Taoist priest with black hair turned his head and said loudly. It was Mo Dun’s Old Acquaintance Taoist Changsheng.

As the leader of the Daoist School External Alchemy faction, he was naturally fortunate to witness the astronomical Telescope incident. He couldn’t help but nodded and said. He has now given up Medicine Pill Dao and turned to study the technique of material immortality, Laurel The collapse of the myth is regrettable to him, and it is not unacceptable.

“If you test on a sand pile, you will have the same result, and you don’t need to splash a body of muddy water.” Mo Dun stepped forward.

“Master!” Wu Meiniang turned around and said sorry, his tongue stuck out.

Taoist Changsheng turned around and said: “Mohist Family is good fortune, and the benefactor of Wu is very spiritual.”

“Taoist Changsheng is overpraised.” Wu Meiniang sorry.

“Marquis of Mo is here today to see the new house!” Taoist Changsheng asked.

Mo Dun nodded said: “This house can be built, and many thanks to Taoist Changsheng’s help.”

“Poor Daoist also wants many thanks to Marquis of Mo for Daoist School External Alchemy If it werent for the funding of the Mohist Family, how could Daoist School create a Rare Item like Cement. Although it took a year, it finally lived up to Marquis of Mos expectations. Taoist Changsheng looked at the mud that Wu Meiniang had just thrown at the stone, revealing a hint of excitingly said.

Before Mo Duns departure to Tuyuhun, he specifically found Daoist School and formulated a task that required Daoist School to develop forged lime and seek new building materials. Mohist Family paid for it and Daoist School contributed. Years, finally refining usable Cement.

Not bad! I am afraid that Cement cannot be used to produce three layers of bricks. If the output of Cement is too low, how many more layers does Mo Dun want to build?

“How is the quality of Cement today?” Mo Dun asked.

“Poor Daoist has gradually taken control of the process, and Power Output has been raised to quite high, but it depends on the reinforcement method of the Mohist Family that doubles the strength of Cement.” Taoist Changsheng said.

When Cement was first developed, it can solidify quickly and is as solid as a rock. However, the strength of the force is not high. Daoist School has researched many times, and this has produced a qualified Cement, plus Mo Dun mixed steel bars in Cement, which immediately doubled the strength of Cement and the strength of the force.

“Steel is the rib, and Cement is the bone. Naturally hard, this is the natural path of the human body, not surprising!” Mo Dun modestly said.

The use of steel bars mixed in Cement to increase strength is certainly a later technology, but it is not difficult to understand in ancient times. When the ancients manufactured mud embryos, they would also add straw to the mud to increase tenacious For road construction, Mohist Family will also use straw paving method to increase the strength of the foundation. This is a reason, but Mo Dun, a wastell, is a little more luxurious. It uses steel as the ribs. The cost is of course doubled, but the effect is also reversed. Something.

Taoist Changsheng also looked at the three-story villa in front of him with satisfaction. He had seen Mo Duns design drawings. The entire villa will be made of steel, cement as bone, and brick as muscle. , Which fits the natural way of Daoist School.

“But…” Wu Meiniang, who had been observing carefully, couldn’t help being frowned, and stopped talking.

Mo Dun noticed Wu Meiniangs expression and said, Just tell me what you have. Mohist Family and Daoist School do not have bad habits that cannot be violated.

Wu Meiniang is straightforward. Said: “The house built by Master and Taoist is indeed sturdy, but it is too ugly! Master is sure that the princess would like to live in such a house.”

Wu Meiniang said, pointing to The red bricks of the villa are interspersed with white Cement beams. The appearance is extremely ugly, not to mention that compared with the palaces in the Imperial Palace, it is also extremely ugly compared with other houses in the Mohist Residence. I am afraid that if the Imperial Family knew that the princess lived This is how the house is. I am afraid that Princess Changle will be given a princess mansion if nothing else, and Mo Dun Shang Prince Consort will directly get it.

Taoist Changsheng on the side could not help but feel embarrassed. Obviously he had discovered this problem a long time ago, but he didn’t say it.

Mo Dun haha said with a smile: “Daoist School pays attention to both inside and outside. Naturally, the house is the same. With the inner beauty, the outer beauty is also indispensable. I just have to come in person, just for This matter.

Mo Dun said and waved his hand, only to see a group of Mohist Family Son brothers pulling a few heavy Carriage, came to Mo Dun, and said: “Young Master, what you want The things have been delivered. “

Taoist Changsheng was curious, is it possible that Mohist Family Son still has no special skills?

Mo Dun stepped forward and touched the Carriage, blocks of items, Turning his head to ask Wu Meiniang: “For the teacher to build a new-style house using the road of the human body, then do you know what can be compared to skin in this world. “

“Compared to skin? “Wu Meiniang frowns saying: “Could it be jade stone?” “

Mo Dun said with a bitter smile: “You are too high to be a teacher. Jade stone is so precious that even the Imperial Family is reluctant to use it, let alone a teacher. “

“Does the Master mean porcelain? “Wu Meiniang had an idea. The house was built with nothing but earth, wood and stone. The porcelain is smooth and skin-like. I am afraid that only porcelain is the most appropriate.

Mo Dun looked at Wu Meiniang appreciatively and said: “Yes. Just prepare to use porcelain as the skin. “

Mo Dun opened the Carriage compartment as he said, revealing pieces of palm-sized rectangular tiles in the car.

“This is white porcelain, white porcelain from Xingyao, Hebei. ? “Taoist Changsheng felt the slippery glazed surface and couldn’t help cry out in surprise.

Mo Dun nodded said: “Yes, this is indeed the white porcelain of Xing Kiln in Hebei. “

Great Tang’s porcelain is very developed, and it is often made of porcelain into various utensils. When Mo Dun placed an order for Xing Kiln in Hebei, he ordered the styles and the craftsmanship of the flat tiles. Compared with porcelain, the process is simpler, the only difficulty is the compression process, and this is the strength of Mohist Family.

The two hit it off, and soon Great Tangs first batch of tiles was very good. Fast firing, and transport to Mohist Residence as quickly as possible.

“Take porcelain as the skin! “

Wu Meiniang looked at the white tiles in front of him, and his mouth opened wide. Even if construction had not yet started, he could imagine how beautiful the house in front of him would be once covered with tiles. .

However, this is not over yet. With the arrival of another Carriage of the Mohist Family, the window frames with transparent glass are transported down. In the sun, bursts of rays of light are reflected, just like The lenses are average…

“The mirror is the window! “Taoist Changsheng couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

After all, he underestimated the idea of Mohist Family Son, which uses steel as the reinforcement, Cement as the bone, brick as the muscle, porcelain as the skin, and Mirrors are windows. Once this house is built, it will shock the entire Great Tang.
