Chapter 2508 The sour prince Zhan thing in my heart
When Li Chengqian knew what that kind of house was for, he finally lost interest in going in and visiting, but this did not prevent him from continuing to visit those new buildings.
The well-organized, clean and wide streets in Fang City have sidewalks on both sides of the road, and street trees are planted on the sidewalks.
It is convenient for pedestrians to have a place to take shelter from the sun in the hot weather.
In addition, all cities and towns in Luonan have an emergency team composed of watchmen and guards specifically responsible for fire safety.
"Is this their firefighting equipment?" Li Chengqian saw a water tanker and a very strange-looking firefighting equipment in the yard near the gate.
Above the waterwheel, there is a pipe fixed, which is made of copper. There is also a nozzle, which is also made of metal.
Between the pipe and the nozzle is a leather pipe that is sewn and firmly bonded with isinglass.
Next to the waterwheel, there is a device that requires up and down pressure. It only needs to move up and down repeatedly, and a stream of cement can be ejected from the nozzle.
"...The water flow can be sprayed to a distance of about five feet. In terms of height, it is the location of a three-story building."
"This new type of fire water truck only requires two to three people to operate. It is very convenient and, most importantly, the effect is quite good.
Two to three fire trucks are enough to deal with house fires, if a large fire breaks out.
There are a total of six fire trucks in the two gates that can be maneuvered, and fire trucks from other cities can also be mobilized to provide assistance."
I saw Cheng Sanlang standing with his head held high and proudly explaining these new appliances.
These gadgets naturally come from the concepts provided by Cheng Sanlang's ridiculously wise mind, and are then made by the veteran craftsmen according to the drawings.
During this period, more than ten fires of various sizes occurred in Luoyang, and these new fire trucks played their due role.
Seeing Cheng Sanlang's smug look, Eunuch Ning Zhong couldn't help but find fault with him.
"But what if it's a building that's too tall and there's a fire on Chufang City?"
Cheng Chubi pointed towards the fire truck.
"Haha, isn't that easy? Eunuch Ning, please lower your head at a 45-degree angle. Have you seen the pipes next to the fire truck?"
"These special bamboo tubes can be connected together and can reach a height of four feet. Not only if there is a fire on the city, but also if the city gate building is on fire, it can still play a role."
Cheng Chubi saw that everyone was just staring at them without doing anything, so he simply came over, picked up the pipes and spliced them together.
Soon, a long pipe with a length of four feet appeared in his hand. In addition, the position of the nozzle can be fixed, which is convenient for people to operate the water flow to extinguish the fire point.
It is simple, clear, and very convenient. After Cheng Chubi came up with this kind of fire-fighting equipment, Li Ke, the prince who was ordered by his father to follow Cheng Sanlang, finally played his role.
Nowadays, the old fire trucks in the palace have been replaced by such wonderful treasures made by Cheng Sanlang.
Seeing this, Ning Zhong could only raise his thumb towards Cheng Sanlang with conviction.
"...I see, Xiao Cheng Taibao is indeed very clever."
In addition to three large fire trucks, each fire point also has four portable fire water trucks. Even though they are said to be portable, it takes four people to lift them when they are full of water.
This is for the convenience of some houses that cannot be entered by fire trucks. Inside, portable fire water trucks can be used to extinguish fires.
In fact, Cheng Chubi had also thought of other means of extinguishing fires, such as dry ice, sand and even explosives.
But they were all in the embryonic stage of concepts, and those ideas were abandoned under the pleading of Li Ke and a group of Luoyang government officials.
But regarding the promotion and announcement of fire protection knowledge, everyone silently raised their hands to express their support.
After all, this is a good thing. There is nothing we can do about it. The manipulative Cheng Luoyang really loves those slogans.
Working all day long, he always likes to instruct a group of servants to go to the bottom of the bulletin board erected in Luoyang City to paint announcements and put up slogans.
They even put up advertisements for those merchants. Of course, that requires a fee, and the price is quite high.
As for why he did this, Cheng Luoyang was very convincing. The annual fee for the Luoyang government office was only a small amount, and good steel must be used on the blade.
As for the erection of so many bulletin boards, they were all made with extra money spent by the government.
If you want to recover the cost, you have to pay something. Those merchants are willing to pay for it. Why don't the government accept such clean money?
It can not only make up for the excessive expenditures before, but also increase the income of the government office. Why not?
As for those firefighting slogans, haha, no one is needed. Cheng Sanlang can guarantee that he will be able to create dozens of slogans that are both easy to remember and rhyme for half an hour behind closed doors.
With such ability, whether it is Li Ke, who is highly educated, or Xu Jingzong, who is erudite and knowledgeable, Li Yifu would like to have a big word "submit" carved on his forehead.
#####
After wandering around, everyone left the fire station and began to stroll through the neat and clean streets in this city, with not many pedestrians coming and going.
Because this community, oh no, this city was recently completed, so the current occupancy rate is not high. After all, Luoyang City is also the capital of the country.
Although the housing prices here are far lower than those in Luobei, they are not cheap either. Except for some people who have moved back, a large number of properties are still in the sales stage.
"Hey, brother Chu Bi, what's over here? Let's go and take a look. Third brother, take care of Yu Zhanshi and the others..."
Li Chengqian raised his finger and pointed in a direction and strode ahead. Cheng Chubi winked at Li Ke and quickly followed.
Yu Zhining glanced over there, then at His Highness King Wu and Fang Erlang, who were standing in front of him with a smile. He sighed helplessly and followed His Highness King Wu for a walk around the city.
From this aspect alone, Yu Zhining began to feel sour in his heart, even if he spent time with His Highness the Crown Prince day and night.
He worked hard for everything in the East Palace, shed his heart and blood for His Highness the Crown Prince, and even died.
But His Highness the Crown Prince's favor for Cheng Sanlang was far greater than his own. Who should he ask to reason with?
But considering the friendship between Cheng Sanlang and His Highness the Crown Prince, and what that kid did to His Highness the Crown Prince.
Yu Zhining wiped his face, looked up to the sky and sighed, forget it, since he was born in this place, where can he live...
Ning Zhong, who was on the side, smacked his mouth sourly and looked at the two figures walking side by side not far ahead.
