Everyone gathered around to see what miracle would happen.
At Du He's signal, Lu Yuan directed several craftsmen to bring in several bamboo tube-like things.
Then, five of them were stuffed into the holes, buried with soil, and tamped down, and a lead wire came out.
Lu Yuan picked up the fire stick and stepped forward to light the fuse.
Swish, rustle, rustle.
There was a sound and a puff of smoke came out.
Everyone was stunned and had no idea what kind of medicine was sold in Duhe's gourd.
But Du He and Lu Yuan turned around and ran away.
The two of them just ran out for more than ten steps.
boom.
There was a huge roar.
The ground shook.
The scene was in a mess, with flying sand and rocks and smoke and dust everywhere.
Changsun Hongcong and others gathered around the hole, but at this moment they were all shrouded in smoke and dust.
After a while, the smoke dissipated.
Du He's eyes widened, and he saw Chang Sun Hong falling from the heads of the others, and sand was falling. These guys were all standing dumbly, as if they didn't know what was going on. Some of them were standing close to each other, and even their clothes were wet.
was blown up.
"Mother..."
Some people actually cried.
At this time, Lu Yuan pointed at everyone's feet and shouted: "Master, it's successful, it's successful..."
After everyone heard this, they looked around and saw that the hole that was originally as big as the mouth of a bowl had been blown open, leaving a large pit that was as deep as one person.
Such a big pit is enough for burying pillars.
The huge hole that originally took seven or eight craftsmen an hour to dig was now done in the blink of an eye.
To build a house, you only need at most ten such pits and bury the pillars.
"There is such a thing in the world. It's really a great experience!"
"This is dynamite!"
"This is my first time seeing you!"
Everyone was amazed.
Before everyone could react, Du He said: "Everyone, get moving immediately, group according to the list, and start working!"
He held a piece of paper in his hand, and on it was the list of groups to work on.
Lu Yuan took the list and began to arrange it.
Everyone gathered together one after another and began to work according to Lu Yuan's instructions.
Some people drilled holes, some blasted, some buried pillars... they were very busy.
Changsun Hongcong was in the crowd and wanted to fish in troubled waters. Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan arranged for him to lift the mud. More than twenty people stood in a line. The distance between each person was only three or two steps. The first one to lift it up.
, passed it to the second person, and then the third person, and passed it on in turn. It was completely an assembly line job. Chang Sun Hong stood in the middle. He couldn't be lazy if he wanted to, so he could only grit his teeth and work...
Except for lunch and the time to go to the hut, no one had any time to rest.
Changsun Hongcong is not the only one who wants to be lazy.
But when everyone saw that Du He was busy and not idle at all, and even did more than everyone else, they silently shut up.
He is the son of the Prime Minister and the Duke of Huyi County. In terms of identity and status, he is higher than anyone present, but he still enjoys his job.
Who doesn't want to do it? Look at Dai Jinyun hanging on the willow tree. This kid has been whipped for a whole day. At first he could still scream, but now his voice is hoarse and he can only hear whimpering. It's really miserable.
In the afternoon, the framework of the five dormitories was finally set up.
Each dormitory has eight rooms, each room can accommodate four people, and a total of 160 people can be accommodated. The entire county government, not counting Du He, Ma Zhou, etc., only has more than 130 people.
There is excess.
Seeing that the framework had been set up, Du He asked everyone to rest for a while.
The craftsmen said one after another: "Oh, this is a miracle. It used to take seven or eight days to build, but now it can be done in half a day. The county official did not lie to everyone!"
"The pillars and beams have been erected, but the other parts are really time-consuming. You can't let me wait to live in a house like this. It can't withstand the wind and rain, and it can't stand it at night."
No…”
"Yeah, what's the difference between living like this and living in the wilderness?"
"Seeing that it's only two hours until dark, why don't you want to live in the wild tonight?"
…
Liang family.
Liang Kai summoned the heads of the noble clans in Hu County and gathered in the main hall.
"Everyone, everyone must be aware of Du He's methods. He is coming from an evil person. Within a few days after he took office, he took away 120,000 guan from us. 120,000 guan. This is no small feat.
Even Qiu Wanjia was not so ruthless at the time. We must find a way, otherwise sooner or later we will be tricked by Du He until even the scum is left!" Liang Kai said sadly, calling on everyone to find a way to deal with Du He.
.
Everyone responded one after another.
"Yes, I thought Du He was just a child, but now it seems that we have underestimated him before. This kid acts without rules and is elusive. I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with him!"
"We must unite..."
"Do you have any good ideas?"
Everyone kept talking to each other, but in the end nothing could be done.
In the end, no one spoke.
The atmosphere was silent.
Chen Yifa suddenly said: "I heard that Du He led people to build houses behind the county government office today, and claimed to have built five houses in one day..."
"impossible!"
Before Chen Yifa could finish his words, he heard Huang Meili, the head of the Huang family, loudly say: "It is simply a fantasy to build five houses in one day. It is impossible!"
"Yes, I have lived for so long, but I have never heard of such absurd things!"
"Du He is just sensationalizing!"
"Don't say you can build five houses in one day. Even if you build five houses, you may not be able to build one house in five days."
Liang Kai sneered: "I really don't know what Du He is thinking. How is this kind of thing possible? In one day, I'm afraid even the pillar may not be able to fall down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the Liang family's housekeeper hurried in, panting heavily, and then said: "Master, you, you, you... didn't you ask me to keep an eye on the county government office? The house built by Du He,
It only took half a day to erect all the pillars and beams, and now it looks like a house from a distance!"
Liang Kai was stunned, grabbed the butler's collar, and asked: "What did you say? Did you see it with your own eyes? The pillars and beams of the five houses have been erected?"
The housekeeper nodded hurriedly: "Master, I don't dare to lie to you, I saw it with my own eyes!"
Huang Meiliao stood up suddenly and said: "I don't believe it, let's go and have a look. What we hear is false, and what we see is belief!"
"That's fine!"
Chen Yifa, Liang Kai and others rushed to the county government office.
Not long after, everyone came to the other side of the river. Looking from a distance, they saw that the main bodies of the five houses in the open space had been built and looked like houses.
"How can this be!"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
In half a day, the frames of five houses were actually built.
The scene in front of us completely subverted everyone's previous understanding.
If no one had seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that it was Du He's half-day work.
