1.68 Qingxi Bridge Tower
The first Qingxi Bridge built is a single-hole wooden arcade bridge. The bridge is more than five meters long (12 meters) and more than one meter wide (2.5 meters) with a single-hole span of five meters and an arch span of more than five meters. The bridge deck to the water surface is about two meters high (5 meters). The bridge is surrounded by bluestone, and the bridge deck is made of salted wood as beams. This bridge only builds a bridge, but no bridge house is built.
It is also necessary to build bridges on the left and right sides of it. The three bridges are connected in series with wooden beams to form a stable cross beam structure. In this way, the bridges fly across the entire stream surface, forming a continuous cross beam frame, and then a bridge tower is built for the nine Shunyang Wei tribes to live in.
Therefore, the "Qingxi Bridge Tower" became a scene of Lousang (see the Dong ethnic group Fengyu Tower in Zhijiang).
When he heard that Liu Bei wanted to salt the wood again, the Tian family in Liaodong was overjoyed.
The boat crossed the Bohai Sea (Bohai Sea), and went backwards into Laishui, and thus advanced along the water and land, sending the giant trees from Liaodong to Lousang. The Lousang's bedding mats also returned with the car and ship and sold all over the country.
Wooden arch bridges are built very fast.
In fact, there is no essential difference between the so-called bridge towers and the pavilions in the village. The only difference is that the heavy building is built on the foundation, while the bridge tower is built on the bridge. The water surface is very humid and not easy to ignite, and salted wood can prevent fire. Liu Bei also has a fireproof water tank. Just be careful and beware of it, the bridge tower is safe and safe.
The advantage of cross bridges is that they can bear loads not only horizontally but also vertically. Just use the cross intersection as the axis to build a five-story building with a wide area. The remaining cross beams can be built with a three-story low building in front, back, left, and right, each with a bucket-like structure and double slope roof.
Each bridge is composed of five pavilions. The front and back are gate towers, and the streets and alleys are on the left and right are annex buildings, and the center is the main building.
Although the courtyard is missing, it can be compact. After completion, there will be no clear streams in the village, only endless heavy buildings flying north and south. It is spectacular.
Shunyang Wei often has positions, and Liu Bei gave him a generous salary, which is enough to support his family. Therefore, it is not important whether there is a courtyard, whether there is a pigpen, chicken steak, or paddy fields in the courtyard. It is important that the family has settled in Lou Sang, and there is no worries. The neighbors are watching, and they are not afraid of the powerful people in Shunyang coming to seek revenge.
Before the beginning of winter, Lousang rice began to be harvested.
This is a major event for the clan. At the command of the old clan leader, all the clans and young people were busy with harvest.
The threshing ground is full of golden rice ears, and even the streets paved with bricks and stones are temporarily occupied.
The Han Dynasty continued to suffer famines, and officials forced the people to rebel. However, Lou Sang was able to mature every season. After all, it was all the Furui brought by Qilinzi. Although the yield per mu was not eight stones, it was enough five stones! The grains were returned to the warehouse, and the family was jubilant.
Eliminate rice, fish, crabs, geese and ducks in rice fields can also be called a good harvest.
The clan members each had good land to take care of. Liu Bei's family's hundred acres of paddy fields were handed over to the new supporters in Shunyang to take care of them.
Only one season a year is collected, and even Liu Bei dare not be careless.
It was not until the rice was harvested and the warehouse was restored, and the golden straw piles were inappropriate in the village. Such flammable things were safe to pile them far away in the fields. Of course, it is best to use them and return them directly to the fields as fertilizer. This is the best solution.
Before the snow fell, the bridge was built again.
On this day, a fast horse ran into the village entrance.
The knight looked around and couldn't help but be shocked. He thought it was a small village, but he never thought it was so prosperous. He had high buildings and high pavilions, and there were crowds of people on the streets and alleys. It was so cheerful.
At the entrance of the village, someone asked. The knight then clasped his fists and asked where Liu Bei's home was.
The answer is: Next to the mulberry tree five feet east of the village.
The knight dismounted and walked along the way to the east of the village.
Every step is the scenery, and the scenery follows you. Everyone on the road is happy and full of spirits.
Even in the county, there is no place for prosperity.
Turning along the road right, an old mulberry tree with a cloud-covered crown stands in the distance of the street with towers.
The deep mansion next to it is Liu Bei's ancestral house.
The person who opened the door was a half-grown boy. He asked for the reason and asked the knight to enter.
Huang Zhong was training troops in the school and was mostly not here during the day. Huang Xu was running wild all day long and was not at home. Only Su Shuang could stand his composure and stayed in the backyard to raise horses. Today, he was bathing the foal in the well railing in the front yard. When he heard that the head of the shop was being slapped, he opened the door to ask.
I heard that it was an official from Hua County, so I welcomed him into the hospital.
Liu Bei always attends night classes and is mostly at home during the day. Hearing Su Shuang shouting that a guest is coming, he comes out to greet him.
When he saw Liu Bei, the official appointed him to bow.
Only then did Liu Bei remember that he was the thief.
Seeing that he was not in trouble, he was naturally happy and asked him to speak in the hall.
The person who came was named Zang Jie. He was originally a thief arrester. After he captured and killed the Langya thief chief Lao Bing in the Tingshes in Fan County that day, he was promoted to Hua County Prison Officer. The thief arrester was a subordinate of the prison and the warden of the county prison. He could receive a salary of 100 stones. After Zang Jie said that, the other thief arresters also had their rewards. Thanks to Liu Bei's kindness, he asked Zang Jie to come and pay a hundred gold medals.
Liu Bei refused and kept him for a few days. He enjoyed wine and dishes all day long and was well received. Zang Jie and Huang Zhong fell in love with each other. After learning about martial arts, they went to the schoolyard to watch the elite soldiers train troops. When they heard that Liu Bei was inviting the people and Shunyang Wei, they sighed a lot in their hearts.
Before leaving, Liu Bei sent several mulberry knives upstairs, and Zang Jieshen thanked him and left.
In this era, wood paint is non-toxic.
The built bridge tower can be moved into and lived in. It is not too late to decorate the storefront slowly. The relatives gather, and the upstairs and downstairs are just right to be placed. The elders live in the middle, the strong ones live in the middle, and the children are above. There are many corridors on the floor, and all of them can be placed. Even if there are family members with their families and nine tribes gather together, one cannot be used, so two or three are placed. The bridge tower can always be placed.
Everyone was very happy.
The bridge across the Qingxi embankment has two gate towers in front and back, near the street, and the terrain is very good. They are all transformed into commercial stores by the owner. They are either rented or operated by themselves, and have a lot of income. Therefore, the two corridors in front and back become lively markets, known as the "Lusang Two City" together with the night market. They are bustling all day long, with traffic flowing. When you climb the tower and look at the distant forests and water, you can see them all; overlooking the downtown city, thousands of scenery are vivid in your mind. Later, a literati and poet painted it as one of the "Eight Scenerys of Lousang", called "Bridge Tower Return to the City".
All the clans called Liu Bei Shaojun. Shunyang Weimin called him the Young Master.
After seeing Zang Jie off, the female assassin came again. However, this time she no longer hid in the toilet, but instead visited the female road in Xianju on the top floor of the seventh floor, Mai Ying.
Although Maiying Xian Gu stayed at home for many days, she was alone and independent. Anyway, she just had to deliver food and drink on time and didn’t have to worry about anything. Liu Bei also found traces of miscellaneous books being flipped. I guess the Xian Gu was idle when she was free, or took advantage of the time to go to the bathroom to take a walk in the library.
None of these can hurt.
What Liu Bei just couldn't understand was who the fairy was? Gongsun, who delivered the meal, once said that she had a Luoyang accent. Every move she made was fairy spirit. Fairy spirit was noble. How did Taiping Road secretly protect a noble noble? Also, it was necessary to protect it, but why did it be sent to Liu Bei instead of Julu, which was occupied by Taiping Road.
Anyway, it's all a mystery inside and out.
When he saw the female assassin off, Gongsun's eyes were full of profound meaning. He said casually that the fragrance often smelled in the toilet at home.
