Without any drawing tools, he could actually draw straight lines with a soft pen, just like drawing with a square ruler.

Seeing this, Cheng Shijie understood that this Zhang Huaize was a man with real abilities. With this drawing ability, he could kill 90% of people in an instant.

In fact, Cheng Shijie can also draw this kind of figure, but the problem is that he does not know the real problems encountered in cultivating in this era and how to solve these problems.

As early as later generations, the official explanation for the origin and name of the road was that a Scottish man in England designed a road that was high in the middle and low on both sides. The road surface was paved with gravel. It was not only flat and solid, but also very expensive to build.

Low. This Scotsman is called John Macadan. The road he designed is called "Macadan Road". It was later spread to China and was shortened to a road by the Chinese.

A road with a high middle and low sides is called a road? But this design method in ancient China originated from the Qin Dynasty. The roads in the Qin Dynasty were comparable to the roads of ancient Rome. They did not use stones but only compacted clay. They are still able to be used today.

When used, weeds will not grow. After the Han Dynasty, stone roads gradually appeared, and drainage and other related facilities were also considered when building roads.

As early as the Yuan Dynasty, the main roads in cities should be as wide as ten horses running abreast, while the main roads in Dadu in the Yuan Dynasty should be as wide as twenty horses running abreast. Ten horses running abreast, each horse should be spaced one meter apart, plus

The width of the horse's and rider's legs is between one and a half to two meters for a horse, which means that a road of ten horses is equivalent to twenty meters, and a road of twenty horses is equivalent to forty meters.

Later, the Ming and Qing dynasties also followed this standard. Even the width was measured by the number of horses, which was actually called a road. It was forced to be compared to the British John Maccardan. This was a sign of extremely unconfident culture. John Macartan

Cardan was born in 1756 and died in 1836. Does China still need to learn from Maccadan in building roads?

The author's hometown has an official road from the Sui Dynasty. It was not covered until the highway was built around 2006. This is a road built with rammed earth. It is also high in the middle and has drainage ditches on both sides. It has been built for more than a thousand years.

, not a blade of grass grows.

The construction drawing of the hard-surface road drawn by Zhang Huaize shows drainage ditches, sand-fixing lawns, road protection woods, and temporary stopping places for pedestrians and carriages. Ancient carriage wheels and axles were wearing parts, and long-distance carriages

They will prepare their own spare parts, and when repairs are needed, the carriages will be parked on the roadside in a temporarily widened area to facilitate repairs.

Cheng Shijie looked at Zhang Huaize who was writing furiously and said, "A monthly salary of five taels of silver?"

"Monthly salary...five taels?"

According to the thinking of later generations, Cheng Shijie believes that for technical and managerial talents, five taels of silver is a bit too little. This is indeed the case. The purchasing power of silver is about 704 yuan. Counted as 700 yuan, five taels is 3,500 yuan.

piece.

If in later generations, with his salary of 3,500 yuan, it would be very difficult to recruit a younger migrant worker. As for technicians who can write and draw, there is no need to even think about it.

Seeing Zhang Huaize's expression of embarrassment, Cheng Shijie then thought about it. Zhang Huaize was born in the Zhang family of Laiyang, and came from a large family. This family was used to seeing the world, so this little money was indeed a bit shabby.

Cheng Shijie pondered for a moment and decided to add more money. After all, he is a rare engineering talent in this era. He thought for a while and said: "Zhang Huaize, as long as you can build this road to my satisfaction, I will give you ten taels of silver a month."

Salary…”

Ten taels of silver is equivalent to the income of Ning Haijun's general-level officer. Of course, if he goes to war, his total legal income will be higher. If he is brave enough, brave enough, and lucky enough, earning one hundred taels of silver is not a problem.

In fact, Cheng Shijie felt that the ten taels of silver were still a little bit less. He said a little embarrassedly: "You can see that I am not a rich man. This is the highest. No matter how high the remuneration is, it is not impossible to get it. It's just that now

Money is really tight. It costs money to buy horses, seeds, farm tools, cattle, and the clothes, armor and weapons worn by soldiers like me. To be honest with you..."

"Commander, are you sure it's five taels..."

"No, ten taels of silver!"

Cheng Shijie thought for a while and said: "In addition, I will reward you with a house. If you want to live in Jinzhou City, there is only one acre. If it is built in Jinzhou City, I can give you two acres of homestead. If it is outside the city, I will give you two acres of homestead."

I can give you five acres..."

Cheng Shijie doesn't have too much money, and even more than six million taels of silver can't cover the way he spends his money.

"The meaning of humble position is that the commander-in-chief must not make a mistake!"

"oh!"

Cheng Shijie thought wrong. It turned out that Zhang Huaize was not dissatisfied with the lack of money, but worried about the large amount of money. In fact, the children of the side branches of the big family did not live better than the servants.

"The commander said, the monthly salary is ten taels of silver?"

"That's right, it's ten taels of silver!"

"Commander, Zhang Huaize's surname is Zhang. There is no way to change this. Every penny of Zhang's money in Laiyang is stained with blood. Huaize now makes all the money he earns from Marshal!"

"That's right!"

Cheng Shijie said: "You can spend it with confidence, ten taels of silver can buy several concubines, as long as your waist is good enough!"

Zhang Huaize's eyes became eager. He didn't want to take concubines anymore, but he still wanted to get a wife. With a wife, his old mother wouldn't nag him all the time.

Cheng Shijie did not care about this trivial matter and directly called Zhou Yandong, Chen Guodong, including Yang Yunniang and Song Xiance, and asked them to be responsible for connecting with Zhang Huaize.

Although Cheng Shijie delegated power to Zhang Huaize, it was not completely without restrictions. Chen Guodong was responsible for supervising whether there were any violations during his execution, Yang Yuniang was responsible for auditing his accounts, Song Xiance was responsible for keeping an eye on the ideological problems of the labor reform team, and Zhou Yandong was responsible for other matters.

support and help.

It is best for Zhang Huaize to have no dissent. If he has dissent, that is his own way.

…

South Island is a natural cave with a small area and only one exit. Because of this, it was transformed into Meng Xianhan's dungeon.

In the dungeon, Mrs. Peng was lying on the ground, covered with bruises.

Meng Xianhan looked at Mr. Peng and said: "Madam, why are you doing this? We have been a couple for a night and a hundred days for you. How can you be like this..."

Meng Xianhan had no choice but to be cruel to Peng, because when he was fleeing, he was injured by a crossbow arrow from the army. Although he didn't have to squat to urinate now, there were some things he couldn't do.

Meng Xianhan was a leader, and his son also died. If there were no descendants, it would be inevitable that the people below would have disapproval. His favorite concubine, Song, had a child in her belly. She was very lucky, and Song's child had already been born.

He is the son that Meng Xianhan longed for day and night.

Therefore, his doted concubine, Mrs. Song, died in childbirth when giving birth to a son. At this time, Mrs. Peng, as his stepmother, could let things go as long as she was willing to help him raise his "son" Meng Changen.

It's just a pity that Mr. Peng no longer believes in him.

Peng didn't even have the mood to answer him. Peng's biggest regret was that she didn't meet Li Fang at the right time. If she was still unmarried and her father Peng Sanxi was still powerful,

She believed that with the Peng family's financial resources, Li Fang could be promoted to the third level. She could also be a daughter-in-law, and maybe Li Fang could earn her a royal wife.

Only when she was with Li Fang did Peng feel that a woman could be so happy.

Now that it fell into the hands of Meng Xianhan, Peng wanted to die.

Seeing Peng's silence, Meng Xianhan decided to wait. Only by catching Peng's lover could he be forced to submit. Even if he caught Li Fang, Meng Xianhan had already thought of how to deal with it. As long as he caught Li Fang,

Fang wants to keep Peng and Li Fang together. If Peng becomes pregnant in the future, another "one corpse and two lives" can not only preserve his reputation, but also better conceal the origin of his son Meng Changen.

Meng Xianhan was very confident that Mr. Peng would definitely change his mind.

Meng Xianhan has little education, so he doesn't know that his current thinking has been distorted...

"Someone is coming!"

"Master, please give me your orders!"

"Prepare the dishes for Madam, and send two maids with quick hands and feet to take care of Madam!"

"yes……"

At this moment, the sound of messy footsteps came. A tall, round-waisted man with disheveled clothes rushed in, rolled and knelt down in front of Meng Xianhan, and screamed repeatedly: "Master... it's not good...

...That...that dog day...Dengzhou...Navy..."

A stench emanated from his body, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on his lower lapel. Meng Xianhan immediately covered his nose and scolded: "You are such a killer, what's wrong with you..."

This strong man's name was Chen Chuanzhi, who was a personal attendant of Meng Xianhan. He was quite brave and rescued Meng Xianhan from the siege of the army many times.

Peng, who had been silent all the time, suddenly raised her head and her eyes were sharp: "My man is here, my man is coming with the Dongjiang Army to kill you, old dog, you wish yourself well!"

"Before I die, I will kill you first..."

Meng Xianhan turned around and led everyone away.

Ning Haijun's navy is very familiar with the hydrological information at the doorstep of Dengzhou. As long as there is no strong wind or heavy rain, there will be a large number of fishing boats going out to sea to catch fish and shrimps. They will leave in the morning and return to the port in the evening or the next day to bring a large amount of seafood ashore.

Sold to the vegetable market.

Most of the fishing boats near the South Island were actually Meng Xianhan's spies. When he saw the navy arriving, Meng Xianhan received the news.

When he learned that the Dengzhou Navy was coming to kill him, Meng Xianhan did not panic or run away. In his eyes, the Dengzhou Navy was the fat in his mouth. As long as the cannons were fired, the Dengzhou Navy would collapse. He could still do it.

Capture a few more warships.

But what Meng Xianhan didn't expect was that oranges were oranges when they were born in Huainan, and oranges when they were born in north Huaibei. After Dengzhou Navy joined Ning Haijun, it completely changed.

When Li Zhixiang saw the fishing boats evacuating quickly, he felt something bad: "These are the looks of bandits, fire!"

"Boom boom..."

It is a pity that the navy of this era has artillery technical problems and the range is very short. Even the first brother of Europa's navy and the current Spanish Armada, when they are in naval battles, they can only reach within 300 yards.

Fire the cannon.

Because in this era, no country has invented a stabilizer system for artillery. Only by inventing a stabilizer system for artillery can the artillery have the ability to fire while traveling. This equipment needed to be invented after World War II.

Although maritime naval guns, especially the Europa 42-pound and 48-pound naval guns, have the ability to shoot more than 3,000 meters, the problem is that the sea is not flat. Once the warship rises and falls, where will the shells hit?

Only God knows.

Today's naval gunfire can only rely on luck. If you are lucky, you will hit the target. If you are not lucky, you will not be able to hit the target even if you fire for several days.

Just like the unprecedented battle between the Spanish Armada and the British Navy, the battle lasted from July 16 to August 2, 1588, a total of seventeen days. The Armada arrived at its destination in the Sea of ​​Calais. Now let’s talk about the two sides.

losses. The Armada passed through 4 naval battles, with a total of 167 killed and 251 wounded, plus a total of 1,000 personnel from the 2 captured battleships (the above-mentioned wounded were amputated limbs and blind people). England's losses
