The next day, Magistrate Yao not only took his master there, but also brought several police officers with him.
This Nuomi Road is equivalent to the ancient version of cement. When I first saw it, Yao Zhixian was immediately stunned.
He couldn't help but ask a villager, "Is this road really made of glutinous rice?"
"Of course, this road is very strong. You can't break it with a hammer. If it doesn't work, bring a hammer. I dare say that even the state capital may not have such a good road as ours."
The villager dared to raise his head just after he finished speaking. When his eyes touched Yao Zhixian's face, he immediately became stunned and stammered: "County, your Excellency the County Magistrate!"
When Su Yueling went to the court that day, many villagers from Lushan Village came to help. This villager was one of them, so he recognized the parents of their county magistrate. He actually talked to the county magistrate just now? The villager's legs went weak.
Kneel down.
Yao Zhixian is considered a good parent official. He gave him a little help and said, "Get up. I'm just curious about your road." He paused and said, "Can I hit it with a hammer?" He wanted to take a look.
, is it really as good as it says?
"sure."
When Wu Xiuping and Wu Xiuming were dealt with impartially in Yao Zhi County, in the eyes of the people in Lushan Village, he was the Grand Master Qingtian. Some villagers hurried home and brought a big hammer over.
Magistrate Yao winked, and one of the detectives picked up the hammer and struck hard on the hardened road surface.
There was a bang, and the road was still as solid as a rock, without even a crack.
Yao Zhixian's eyes lit up, "What a good thing."
Although this thing is very expensive and generally cannot be repaired, such a solid thing cannot be stronger if it is used to build embankments. Although glutinous rice is expensive, the Great Xia Dynasty spent one hundred thousand yuan on embankments every year to prevent floods.
Two or more. This silver is enough to use glutinous rice to build the embankment.
"Who came up with this idea?" he asked.
The villagers know this.
"Yuan family! I just don't know if it's Yuan Xiucai or Su Yueling."
If it were in the past, they would definitely think that Yuan Xiucai was the smartest person in their county. But now... Su Yueling's status in their hearts has already risen, and she has become as smart as Yuan Suijun. Why is she not smart?
He can figure out how to make white sugar and tinker with a pedal spinning wheel. This can be said to be extremely clever.
Magistrate Yao nodded, "Take me to see them."
He had to ask the couple first, and then think carefully about how to write the poem.
The people of Lushan Village are so proud. Is the county magistrate going to their Lushan Village? Their Lushan Village is really beautiful.
The smart one had already gone to call the village chief, while the other one took Yao Zhixian and others to the Yuan family.
When the village chief received the news, Yao Zhixian and others also arrived at the village gate. After all, the village chief had also studied and understood the most basic etiquette. He saluted Yao Zhixian and said, "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, come this way
Walk."
Yao Zhixian praised the village chief a few times, saying that his village had produced two talented people who were expected to be elected officials, and that he, the village chief, had done a good job.
Village chief Lu Li did not dare to take the credit, saying: "They are also talented and hardworking."
He was thinking in his mind, how about opening a village school and inviting a Tongsheng to educate the children (he didn't dare to think about it as a scholar), and he didn't want to be able to produce another Yuan Suijun, or whether he could produce another one in the future.
Zhang Chengwang is not bad either. The more scholars there are in a village, the less they dare to be bullied by other villages. You must know that there are also disputes between villages. There are countless people who fight over mountains and water sources. Because their village
There are two talented people (Yuan Suijun is still a definite candidate in the eyes of many people), so if you want to bully them, you can't bully them.
But they can't just count on Yuan Suijun every time. Even if there are no scholars, it would be good to have a few more children.
Yao Zhixian didn't know what the village chief was thinking. Under his leadership, he came to the door of Yuan's house. Even the Zhixian was shocked by the four-in-one mansion. I'm afraid there is nothing like this in the county.
It looks like a more magnificent house. He lives in a mansion provided by the imperial court. The second time he enters the house, the living conditions are indeed good, but compared with the fourth time, the difference is obvious.
Lu Li told the concierge, and the concierge, Old Man Sheng, immediately went in to make the announcement.
Not long after, Yuan Suijun came out in person and saluted Yao Zhixian, "The student has met the master."
Yao Zhixian stroked his beard and said with a smile: "No need to be polite."
Yuan Suijun took Yao Zhixian in and personally made them a pot of tea.
Magistrate Yao was very surprised, "Your method of making tea..."
It looked particularly pleasing to the eye, elegant and with an indescribable rhythm. He had never seen anyone making tea like this, so elegant and moving.
Yuan Suijun put the fragrant tea in front of him and said lightly: "My wife figured this out at home. I learned a little bit from her, but I am far inferior to her."
Su Yueling's method of making tea can be said to be an art, and people can't help but indulge in it every time they watch it. It just depends on Su Yueling's mood when making tea. If she is in a good mood, she may make tea for you for three days in a row. I don't want to make tea anymore.
, I didn’t bother to move the tea set out for ten days.
Yao Zhixian exclaimed inwardly, "No wonder I heard so many people praising Mrs. Hui Zhilan's heart."
He took a sip of tea. The tea soup was clear, mellow and delicious. Smelling the fragrance of the tea, it seemed that people would calm down. He remembered his purpose and said, "Is that the method you came up with for the glutinous rice road?"
Yuan Suijun had already thought of his words. He also guessed that this road would attract Yao Zhixian's attention sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
He said: "My wife usually likes to read travel notes. A few days ago, I remembered that I had read in a book that in a state near the sea, glutinous rice mortar was used to build houses and roads. The waterproofing effect was very good. It was mentioned above that it was a
One hundred pounds of water and five pounds of glutinous rice were boiled over high heat for two hours, and then mixed with lime, clay and sand. Then we simply gave it a try, but the effect was better than we imagined. As mentioned above,
It will take about ten days to harden. The strongest effect will be achieved after a year."
There was a hint of appreciation on his face, "The ancestors who thought of this method were really smart."
Is that so? Now is not the strongest time?
Magistrate Yao suddenly realized it and praised, "That's because Mrs. Ling is well-read, otherwise how could she have seen this recipe."
He was very excited and said, "I am going to write this recipe into a book. If it can be used on the river embankment, it will be beneficial to the country."
However, this report must be shown to the magistrate first. It is a taboo in officialdom to report directly to the superiors without skipping a superior. Naturally, Magistrate Yao will not make this mistake. If he does this well, he may be able to get an excellent official evaluation as a result.
, it may be possible to go further in the future.
Yuan Suijun was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "If it can really be used on the river embankment, I can say that it will benefit the people along the river."
Every year, embankments are washed away, and countless people suffer from floods.
The more Yao Zhixian thought about it, the more excited he became, and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely express my merits for you in my book and will not swallow up your merits."
He asked again in detail how to use the glutinous rice milk, and took a pen to write it down. When he had no other place to ask, he ate another jujube paste and yam cake sent by the Yuan family, and went back satisfied.
Next, he would write the excerpt as soon as possible and upload it as soon as possible.
