Once you become a boy, marry a good man, and become rich together

Chapter 222: What unreliable things are these three reliable people doing!

Lin Jing'an looked up from his bowl and saw Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng walking towards the door.

He buried his head in eating again.

His elder brother and brother Ci seemed like crazy these days. They were covered in dust and had messy hair. They only came home for meals and didn't talk much during meals.

When Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng arrived at the place, they started to fire the kiln according to the instructions of the master. Now they can fire the kiln to the temperature required for calcination, which means they need to reach the intermediate temperature to achieve this taste.

This ratio is not very good, probably because the iron content in the iron slag is different.

It turns out that practice makes perfect.

This time, Jiang Ci was very confident that the cement he made would be able to achieve his ideal state.

Lin Jingsheng was burning the kiln, and Jiang Ci went to the side to see the cement that was fired yesterday. After it was fired, Jiang Ci mixed it with water and spread it out. Today it has hardened, so he can test its strength.

Jiang Ci dug up the soil next to the small cement slab, turned the cement slab out, and after standing on it, he found it was quite sturdy.

Put two bricks underneath, put the cement board on top of it, and step on it to try it. It's very good and solid.

Then he stepped on it again. It was not broken. After Jiang Ci came down, he looked at the cement board back and forth twice and found some slight cracks.

There was also a reason that the cement board he spread was too thin, but this allowed for a better experiment.

It's not as good as modern cement, but better than the last time.

The result should be better this time, and it will definitely be sturdy when mixed with sand to build a house.

Then we can burn more to build roads, but I don’t know where to quarry the stones. We need to add stones to the roads to make them stronger and save cement.

Lin Jingsheng also came to see, "How is it?"

"This cement is OK. The cement baked today should be stronger than this. You can try it too."

Lin Jingsheng placed the cement board on the bricks laid by Jiangci and stood on it. It was still stable and no changes could be seen with the naked eye.

Then he came down, gathered his strength and stomped hard, and then a more obvious crack appeared.

Lin Jingsheng was very satisfied with the hardness of the cement board. It can be said that since the first time the cement was successfully burned, Lin Jingsheng was very satisfied with its hardness, and this third time was much harder than the previous two times.

Jiang Ci said that this has not yet reached the intensity it should have, and Lin Jingsheng is more satisfied each time.

"Today's cooking turned out fine. It was cooked according to this ratio and temperature."

Jiang Ci has been staying here to watch over it. Every time, he records how much fuel is filled and how long it takes, and estimates the temperature that will be reached.

The proportions of various raw materials for each cement production are recorded clearly.

Jiang Ci picked up the dusty papers and said, "When the time comes, I will give the data and the kiln drawings to Wen Yu and let him oversee the construction.

Lin Jingsheng smoothed Jiang Ci's messy hair and said, "Ah Ci, do you trust Wen Yu so much? Give him such an important thing."

Jiang Ci looked at Lin Jingsheng's heavy eyes for a few moments, then a smile appeared on her face, "Because you trust them."

Lin Jingsheng was stunned for a moment.

Jiang Ci took another small step forward, "I know you won't put me in danger, and it's your tacit consent that I get along with them."

Jiang Ci looked into Lin Jingsheng's eyes, as if she wanted to see through the secret between Lin Jingsheng and them.

Lin Jingsheng felt helpless when seeing Jiang Ci's eyes. He put his big hands on Jiang Ci's eyes and then hugged Jiang Ci in his arms.

"Aci, do you want to know why?"

Jiang Ci broke free from Lin Jingsheng's hand, stepped back and looked into Lin Jingsheng's eyes with a faint smile on her face without saying a word.

Lin Jingsheng sighed and explained the reason, "Since the first time I saw Wen Yuting in the capital city..."

Jiang Ci felt this explanation was so unreliable. How could three reliable people create such an unreliable lucky star?

Jiang Ci said with a half-smile on her face, "Lucky star? Do you really believe it?"

Jiang Ci still remembers that when he first came to this family, Ye Wan said that he was Lin Jingsheng's lucky star. How come now he is said to be the lucky star of the country Dashun?

"Why don't you believe me, Ah Ci? Isn't what you are doing now beneficial to the country and the people, and the foundation for the country's prosperity? I still remember Ah Ci told me before that once the road is repaired, the time for transporting goods between different places can be reduced by at least half, so that the abundant food in the southern land of fish and rice can be transported to other places and delivered to the frontier soldiers.

Now that the roads have been repaired, the unique products from different places can be sold to other places. Cotton from the north can be sold at a high price, and they can use the money they earn to buy more food and charcoal for the winter.

The roads are repaired, and it takes less time for central officials to supervise local officials, leaving those corrupt officials less time to hide.

Jiang Ci's heart started pounding when Lin Jingsheng said these words.

"But..." How could I have such great ability!

Lin Jingsheng rubbed Jiang Ci's hair and comforted Jiang Ci, who had a complicated expression, "It's okay, don't feel burdened, those things are not what you should do."

"it is good."

Lying on the bed, Jiang Ci's mind reappeared the words Lin Jingsheng said in the afternoon. She was still a little worried and wanted to ask for clarification.

As soon as Lin Jingsheng entered the room, Jiang Ci asked Lin Jingsheng, "Ah Sheng, you said that the prince also knew about this. Wen Yuting and Ji Chen are good friends with the prince, so the formula of cement I sent over must have fallen into the hands of the prince. Is there anyone in the royal family who is equally powerful as the prince and wants to sit on the throne?"

Jiang Ci was most worried about this. If this person existed, once his existence was known, he would send people to kill their entire family.

Lin Jingsheng held Jiang Ci's legs and sat on the bed. "No, the crown prince is 22 years old this year and is the emperor's eldest son. The second prince is the child of Concubine Shu and is the same age as the crown prince. However, he had some accidents when he was a child and was not found until he was a teenager. He has always been obsessed with the Ministry of Works. Concubine Shu also pity him for having lived a hard life for more than ten years, and he has no influence on the throne.

The third prince is two years younger than the crown prince and is born a little mentally retarded. According to what Ah Ci told me before, there are some problems with children born to close relatives.

The Fourth Prince is 18 years old and is the Crown Prince's half-brother. The Sixth Prince is 16 years old and is ambitious. His mother, the Imperial Concubine, is also ambitious. However, within a year, the Imperial Concubine's family support is gone, so the Sixth Prince doesn't have to worry about anything.

The fifth prince was 15 years old, and he was really reckless and dissolute. He caused so much trouble that the whole capital was annoyed. When we went back last time, I heard General Ji say that the emperor had him put in solitary confinement because he was afraid he might do something bad. "

Jiang Ci tilted her head and looked at Lin Jingsheng, "How do you know so much?"

"How can I feel at ease if I don't understand clearly?"

Jiang Ci felt warm in her heart, "I told you that you wouldn't put me in danger."
