Chapter 202 Cement burned out?
But no matter what, Yu Zhining has come, and things will always have a result. No matter how brave Lu Qinghong is, he will never dare to grit his teeth and hold on at this time. After all, Old Yu had just said that he would report this matter to the emperor truthfully.
So Lu Qinghong patted his chest without even thinking about it and said, "The Minister is too worried. There is no need to disturb the emperor for such trivial matters. In the past, the officials didn't know that Shanyin County was making steel for the court. Now that he knows, he will not delay their raw material supply."
"Is this really the case?" Yu Zhining looked at Lu Qinghong calmly. Naturally, he would not write a letter to Li Shimin easily. The reason why he said that just now was just to make a big banner - to scare people.
"Of course, please give me a chance, Lord." Lu Qinghong said a little aggrievedly.
He really didn't know about this at all, but just heard Yu Zhining's words that it seemed that the Shuozhou sect had sued him, but he didn't know whether he was referring to the former sect Han Fu or the current sect Wang Yi.
Seeing that Lu Qinghong had given up and was very proud of his face, Yu Zhining nodded lightly: "Okay, since Lord Lu has agreed, then this matter will be settled like this. I will live in Shanyin County for a while. I hope Lord Lu will fulfill his promise as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, Lord!" Lu Qinghong said, and ordered someone to grind the ink. He wrote a letter to the county magistrate of Lan County in front of Yu Zhining, ordering him to ensure the supply of iron ore in Shuozhou no matter what method he thought, but he did not mention a word of the money.
Anyway, Yu Zhining has intervened in this matter, and I believe there will be no problems with money. Otherwise, at worst, you can ask him for money by yourself. Anyway, everyone is an official, so no one can escape.
...
In Shanyin County, Yu Zhining has been away for three days. Seeing that the iron ore stock is getting smaller and smaller, Li Muyun has to compress the output again and again. But even so, if the ore transportation volume does not increase within five days, the small blast furnace will have to stop work.
Wang Jie saw all this in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. He was so anxious that he was filled with fire in just one night.
But there is no way or there is no way. Such things cannot be rushed at all. If the ore cannot be transported, he will never be able to refine himself no matter how anxious he is.
Unlike Wang Jie, the fat man who was responsible for firing coke lived a very comfortable life, and he only ate or slept every day. Anyway, this thing has mature technology and doesn’t have to worry about so many things. Just watch the scene and don’t let people be stuffed into the cave and burn them to death.
Li Muyun arrived in the valley under such circumstances. Seeing the fat man smacking his lips while sleeping, he immediately got angry and kicked him hard on the butt: "You are a pig, you're just eating and sleeping!"
"Who will kick me!" The fat man had just sparked a relationship with the old lady in his dream. He was kicked by Li Muyun and cursed without thinking. It was not until he finished scolding that he saw someone staring at him with a dark face. He dared to apologize again: "Oh Muyun, it turns out that you are here, and I thought it was the one who was not open to his eyes."
"Stop telling me the useless. I'll ask you to come and see them burn charcoal and try to make cement. How come you are watching me?" Li Muyun was already feeling a little frustrated because of the source of iron ore. Now, seeing the fat man's virtue, he was even more angry.
"No, no, didn't I just lay down for a while? I watched them burn for half a night yesterday, so I was so tired." Seeing that the situation was not good, the fat man quickly explained, and finally said, "That, by the way, I burned some things from the cement kiln last night, and I don't know if it was the cement you want."
"What does it look like? Take me to see it." Li Muyun glared at the fat man and waved his head at him.
The fat man is still some of his number one person under him. He can no longer be beaten up. Besides, the fat man is shameless. Li Muyun still wants to be like this. He is always a bit embarrassed to ride the fat man and beat him up at any time.
"Oh, go, go!" The fat man escaped the beating by chance. He was secretly grateful in his heart. He jumped off the couch quickly and rushed out in three or two steps. His body flexibility was completely disproportionate to his figure.
...
Li Muyun has thought many times under what circumstances would cement be burned?
But no matter what he thought, he never expected that this thing would be placed in front of him silently.
"Mu Yun, Mu Yun, what's wrong with you?" The fat man looked at Li Mu Yun squatting on the ground, rubbing the gray powder without saying anything, and couldn't help but push him worriedly.
"Old Feng, you are responsible for firing this thing? Did you leave a record when burning these things?" Li Muyun ignored the fat man, but turned to look at the middle-aged man on the side, which was responsible for firing this.
"Yes, it was burned by the villain, and there are records." The middle-aged man nodded, and then asked with a little nervousness: "Mr. Hou, is this thing the cement you mentioned?"
"It's almost the same as it is. It looks very similar. You have to try it out before you know if you know." Li Muyun slapped the cement dust on his hand and said.
Cement contains lime, and it will feel burning after holding it in your hand for a long time. It is precisely based on this feeling that the gray powder on the ground should be cement.
The experiment started soon. There were some sand and other valleys in the valleys, which were used to extinguish fires. Now it can be used for use. The water is ready-made. It is not used to drink anyway. Just store the water from the past. As for bricks, there is no such thing, but there is no shortage of stones in the mountains, so it is the same if you get a few stones.
So it took not much time. Li Muyun had already stirred the cement, piled up a few stones and then smeared them into the gaps of the stones. Everything was fine. Next, wait two or three days to see the results.
However, Li Muyun was still very sure of the results of the experiment. After all, the newly burned batch of things are no different from those of later cement in terms of their appearance.
Only the fat man disagreed with this. Seeing Li Muyun's excited look, he was even happier than the small blast furnace's pig iron, he couldn't help but say, "Muyun, what are you happy about? Isn't it just a bit of dust? Is there any need to be so happy?"
"You know, this thing is very useful. If it is used properly, it is a powerful tool for making money. I tell you that no one is allowed to burn this thing. If it is spread out, I will fight you to the death, do you know?"
"Yes, I understand!" Feng Junyi nodded quickly.
