As usual, Song Yang had a sumptuous breakfast served by two girls in the morning.
Then I strolled to the government office to go to work.
Song Yang is a prince, and he doesn't have any specific matters. In fact, he can take care of everything.
But you don’t have to worry too much about anything.
However, Song Yang still came every day because he might come to ask him about something that others couldn't solve.
Such as today.
As soon as he sat down to read yesterday's official documents, He Siyuan came to see him.
He Siyuan is the general person in charge of the residential building construction that Fang Zhe found, or the contractor for short.
He was a refugee from Hongzhou and was very good at masonry work. Soon after arriving in Jiangzhou, he was treated as a professional technician.
Later he developed into the supervisor of a relatively large construction team.
"Your Majesty, I need you to take a look at the residential building. The foundation has been poured and the steel bars have been laid out according to your drawings."
"But...the little man has not reserved any water holes."
In fact, it’s not a big deal. Of course, the building must have holes and pipes.
It's just that the construction crew had never worked on a building before, so they were a little embarrassed during the construction.
"Let's go and have a look."
Song Yang took He Siyuan back to the construction site and first looked at the foundation.
The cement was poured yesterday and you can now walk up and take a look.
Song Yang and He Siyuan were going through the layout diagram of the pipeline, and the location of the pipeline leading to the sewer was left on the foundation.
The workers don't understand how to go up the pipeline, how to turn, how to make backwater bends.
"Let's do this. Lao He, you call in the technical workers, and I will tell you how to fix these water pipes."
Song Yang thought for a while and thought it would be better to give everyone an overall overview of the key technical points.
Otherwise, if you have any problems in the future, you will have to go to him. You can't just come over for everything.
Teach the basic knowledge and you can solve common problems
In this way, Song Yang only needs to be responsible for difficult and complicated diseases.
After hearing this, He Siyuan nodded immediately and ran to find the craftsmen to come and listen to the class.
On the other side, Gao Junyan's boat also arrived at Xincheng Pier.
The three Mo people on the ship have been petrified.
The prosperity of Xincheng Pier is something they have never seen in their lives.
This time they went down the mountain for the third time.
Before the natural disaster, Master and I went to Xuchang, Xinyang and other northern towns.
But the riverside piers in those places are not as good as the Yangtze River piers.
And it is still a prosperous Jiangzhou.
"It turns out that Jiangzhou is so... prosperous!"
"I thought Jiangning was the most prosperous ferry port, but I didn't expect there to be a more prosperous place than there!"
"First Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother! Look! The people here are energetic, well-dressed, and actually live better than Jiangning!"
"What is that? A pulley? Can a pulley be used in this way?"
"This must be the work of a master craftsman! I'm waiting to see you!"
"Ah! He can actually pull such a big bag by himself! He has mastered the use of this pulley!"
The three painters were shouting and yelling all the way through the dock work area.
The workers cast sympathetic glances one after another.
"These three people must have come from the countryside, so they have never seen the world."
"They are probably refugees."
"They must be refugees. This must be their first time in Jiangzhou."
Mohists look at Jiangzhou as if they were looking at the stars in the sky.
When people look at ink, it’s like looking at a monkey playing...
Gao Junyan also despised these three yelling guys, and even thought that he might have to replace 500 chickens!
"Let's go, let's go. It's important to see the prince! Don't delay here. If you can get the prince's appreciation, when can you not come over?" Gao Junyan urged impatiently.
Only then were the three Mohists brought back to reality by Gao Junyan.
This is Jiangzhou, they are not here to pay homage to the prince.
The three Mohists hurriedly gathered their energy and tidied their clothes.
Come out of the pier and take a carriage at the door to the new city.
This carriage leaves every quarter of an hour, and can seat ten people each time.
In Song Yang’s words, this is called public transportation!
Of course, as an official attending the meeting, Gao Junyan could take the three Mohists and set off directly.
The horse-drawn carriage drove on a smooth cement road, as if the road was flat, and no bumps were felt at all.
Xu Ling lay on the car window and looked at the scenery outside, feeling once again how smooth the road in Jiangzhou was.
The carriage arrived directly at the gate of the government office. Gao Junyan asked the guard and said that the prince had gone to the construction site opposite.
"Let's go to the construction site. It seems that a residential building is being built over there." Gao Junyan heard that a residential building was going to be built in front of the government office, but he had never seen a residential building before.
This is also Gao Junyan's first visit to Jiangzhou since the construction of the residential building started.
He asked the coachman to take his wife and children back to Grandmaster Gao's residence, while he took the three Mohists along the path beside the square to the construction site.
As soon as Gao Junyan entered the construction site, Song Yang's voice came from the front.
"Everyone is here? Let's start the lecture now. Listen carefully to me. Learn more, and don't come to me for all matters big or small in the future."
Song Yang led about twenty workers together. He used a wooden stick as a pointer and was tapping on the blackboard.
Blackboards are just ordinary wooden boards that are common on construction sites.
Gao Junyan entered the construction site and bowed his hand towards Song Yang.
Song Yang saw him coming, smiled and beckoned: "Here comes Lao Gao. I will give a lecture to the workers. You wait aside for a while. I will show you the residential buildings later. If you like it, you can choose one."
.”
Gao Junyan performed very well in Jiangning, and his results are obvious to all.
Song Yang had long wanted to reward him with something, but Gao Junyan didn't lack anything.
This time Gao Junyan came over, and Song Yang just asked him to take a look at the building. If he liked it, he would give him a set.
Gao Junyan smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, you are busy with your business, we are waiting here."
When Song Yang was about to start his lecture, Gao Junyan did not introduce the three Mohists to him.
He took three people and sat next to the workers.
The work shed here was originally a place for workers to eat, and could easily accommodate a hundred and eighty people.
There were about twenty of them attending the class, and it was quite spacious.
"Come, let's go to class. I will first tell you the principles of going up and down the water."
"Getting into the water relies on pressure, and launching into the water relies on gravity..."
Song Yang explained loudly, starting from the water supply and drainage, the basic principles, the trend of the pipeline, and the layout of the line.
Issues such as how to facilitate people's use and so on are described one by one.
Song Yang did some similar work on these things back then, so he can give a general idea.
The degree to which the workers accept it is also not uniform, and some who have gone to night school are more understanding.
Those refugee masters who did not go to night school and had recently come from other places basically did not understand the words gravity, pressure, and siphon.
Among the people present, the ones who listened most raptly were the three Mohists.
Not only can they understand the lessons taught by Song Yang, but they can also draw inferences from one example to another.
"Your Majesty, would it be better if the water pipes were connected like this?"
"Yes. The advantage of this kind of backwater bend is to reduce odor, but it also has limitations. You can see that this kind of bend takes up a relatively large space. So a detailed analysis of the specific situation depends on how big the location is in people's homes."
Song Yang answered the question and looked at the three Mohists. All three of them had followed Gao Junyan.
As soon as you hear their questions, you know they know their stuff.
Song Yang thought these three people were craftsmen from Jiangning, here to work with Gao Junyan.
