On this day, Yu Zimo came back from the Bachelor's Palace and summoned Yang Rong, Long Xiang, the Tie brothers, Fang Zhuo and all the stewards for a meeting. It can be said that this meeting is the kick-off meeting for Yu Zimo's next project. He already knows all the preparations. What is missing is manpower and materials. As long as both are in place, construction can start immediately. As for what his project is, it is very simple, it is real estate. He is going to build a concrete house like a modern community instead of a wooden house for the first time in ancient times. This can be said to be a great project, Yu Zimo He is not completely sure yet, but he has done all the theoretical work. Fortunately, he studied civil engineering in college and has theoretical knowledge of everything involved in building a house. He has already drawn the drawings some time ago. The spare room from the Ministry of Industry was also obtained yesterday, but the area was a bit larger than expected, which was a good thing. Originally, he was worried that the place was not big enough, but now after looking at the map of the Ministry of Industry, the size was sufficient. During this period, Yu Zimo has been reading in the Grand Master's Mansion. In fact, it has a purpose. Now he knows everything about the capital. And God has favored him. The few things he wants are available near the capital, so he doesn't have to. I traveled to a very far place to transport goods. After all, transportation was not developed in ancient times. If we relied on horse-drawn carriages, I don¡¯t know how much manpower and material resources would be consumed. "Dongcheng, how is the recruitment of craftsmen?" "It's almost done." Li Dongcheng has also traveled to many places these days. There were originally many craftsmen in the capital, but most of them were monopolized by big families, so he could only be one They started with idle craftsmen and finally recruited more than forty people. This was because the price offered was relatively high. "Okay, you go to Yang's house tomorrow and borrow their idle craftsmen first. I'll ask Rong'er to say hello in the evening. When everyone is ready, you can start arranging for them to demolish all the idle houses in the Ministry of Works. , this is a big project, you can find some people who can do hard work to do some simple tasks. Money is not an issue, the speed must be fast. Remember, I only give you three months. If you can¡¯t finish the demolition, you will have to do it. Let's clear an open space first." Seeing Li Dongcheng nod, Yu Zimo turned around and said to Yang Rong: "Rong'er, starting from tomorrow, Liu Fei will be in charge of Que Chaodulao. You will be in charge of the next project. "The person whose name was called by Yu Zimo was a man in his late thirties. He looked extremely stable. His face had a slight trace of vicissitudes of life. This man was originally the steward of the Yang family's store, and now he is asked to take over. Que Chao Doulao was also something Yu Zimo had considered. On the contrary, Liu Fei did not look excited because of the good news. He sat aside and thought solemnly. "Zimo, you keep talking about projects. What kind of project is this? I'm still confused." Long Xiang's words reached his ears, and the others nodded. Yu Zimo still hasn't explained it well. Yes, it was very mysterious. "Since you want to know, I will give you a brief introduction." Then Yu Zimo explained in as clear a language as possible, and there were many people's exclamations. Gradually everyone became excited, even Tie Yi's old-fashioned His face was full of longing, wanting to see what the house Yu Zimo described looked like. "Fuck Hehe, Brother Mo, you have to leave such a good thing to me." Long Xiang cast a wink at Yu Zimo, and called him Brother Mo in a tired voice, almost losing his mind. Yu Zimo was disgusted to death, and everyone looked at this guy with contemptuous looks on their faces. "Go away, these guys are planning to make a lot of money." This is not to say that Yu Zimo is stingy. If these old brothers want it, he will give it to them without saying a word. But now he really plans to use it to gain fame. They If you want, you can design something better yourself in the future. "I'm in charge of the capital. What are you doing, Zimo?" Seeing Long Xiang was about to speak again, Yang Rong quickly changed the topic, saving the two of them from talking nonsense again. "I may have to leave for a while, but I won't go far. They are all near the capital. Building a stone house is not as simple as you think. The things required are very complicated. Although I am sure now, there is no one else but me in this matter. "Except, you may not be able to do it. " Yu Zimo went out to do a lot of things, building concrete buildings. Modern people know that cement, steel bars, and bricks are necessary items, but here is ancient times, and there are none. Fortunately, the production of these cements and bricks is relatively simple. As a top student in civil engineering, Yu Zimo still understands this stuff. The ancient Romans calcined cement thousands of years ago. I am no worse than them with my higher education. . The most difficult thing to do is steel bars. Although they are obtained by calcining and adjusting the amount of carbon elements, even if he knew the method, he did not have the tools to do it. Originally, it was possible to build stone without reinforced concrete by imitating the Gothic architecture of ancient Europe.There are houses, but those are basically church buildings. In terms of aesthetics and practicality, modern villas are indeed more beautiful. Fortunately, after discussing with Tie Qing, I learned that the Que Dynasty is rich in a special material called Tongyun Steel. It is not only very ductile, but also very strong. Comparing two and one, it can completely replace steel bars. So this is the biggest problem. It has been resolved in advance. The rest of calcining cement and turning heads is relatively simple. It is nothing more than finding a place to build two kilns. As for the calcined materials, Yu Zimo read geography books around the capital and found that they were all distributed and not far apart. , just use local materials and calcine. Yu Zimo left the matter of Tongyun Steel to Tie Qing. He wanted a large amount of goods and slowly stocked them up. After all, for such a large project, the existing stock in Jingcheng alone would not be enough. The materials shop needed to be shipped from other places. It also takes a long time, so you have to prepare from now on. Moreover, it would be too slow to purchase goods from material shops all over the capital. With Tieqing's flexibility and familiarity with these materials, the other party would definitely not be deceived in terms of price. As for Tie Yi, Yu Zimo also arranged a very suitable job for him, asking Long Xiang to recruit a group of apprentices. It would be best to poach people from other shops and then give them all to him for training. Although Tie Yi did not have Tie Yi, He has a flexible temperament, but his basic knowledge of casting is extremely solid, which even a loyal lover cannot match. After the project starts, more and more blacksmiths will be needed. After all, there were no advanced tools in ancient times, so the processing process became cumbersome. For example, steel bars need to be cut into two sections. Modern cutting machines are very simple, but in ancient times they could only cut the steel bars into two pieces. The part to be cut off is hot and can be broken with some simple tools, so the entire project will undoubtedly be much larger. There is no other way, unless you use a spiritual sword, which is even simpler than a cutting machine. , but whoever dares to use this thing, Yu Zimo and others will be blasted to pieces by the martial arts as soon as they are taken out. Therefore, this project will take a long time and cannot be completed in one or two years.
