Chapter 56 Reinforced Concrete

"You guys come here to help me and bring these things to me in a certain proportion."

Fang Shiyu ordered Liu Bowen and Zhu Yuanzhang next to him.

"Mr. Fang, do you need to use stones to build a dam?"

When Liu Bowen saw Fang Shiyu telling him to prepare, he asked curiously.

The so-called dam that is thousands of miles away is destroyed by an ant hole.

This sentence does not actually refer to ants. The reason why the dam collapses in many cases is that the workers are lazy and do not screen out the soil, which leads to some stones mixed in the dam when building it.

Those tiny stones will cause the dam to have poor air tightness, which will leak water and then collapse the dam.

Now Young Master Fang actually wants to use stones to build a dam.

This is simply unheard of technology.

"You go and get it. Where did you get so much nonsense? After dark, I will stop serving you."

Fang Shiyu pointed to the sun gradually setting in the west.

"Okay, I want to see how Mr. Fang uses stone to build a dam."

Liu Bowen was not angry about Fang Shiyu's words, but instead turned around to prepare the stones Fang Shiyu needed.

Zhu Yuanzhang was ordered by Fang Shiyu to prepare sand and stones, but Luo Furen took the lead in preparing.

He is worthy of being a science and engineering man!

Looking at Luo Furen, who was taking the lead in preparing sand and stones, Zhu Yuanzhang was filled with emotion.

Although Luo Furen is a second-rank minister of the Ministry of Works, he was not nicknamed Luo Honest because of his calm personality.

It is precisely because of Luo Furen's calm and serious attitude that he was relieved to hand over all the projects of the Ming Dynasty to the other party to handle.

If it were Fang Shiyu, a bastard with bad habits, she wouldn't be so relieved.

"I wish the old man not to be idle and to stir the cement for me."

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was full of emotion, a shovel suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Little bastard, are you talking to me?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked in shock.

I don't know how many years have passed.

This is the first time in so many years that someone dares to ask him to do work.

"Are you in a daze? Is there a second person named Old Man Zhu in the scene?"

The expression on Fang Shiyu's face was even more shocked than Zhu Yuanzhang.

"We old men have done everything, so what are you doing?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked a little dissatisfied.

I just say that you little bastard don’t know my husband’s true identity, but I am still a fifty or sixty years old. It’s okay to be your kid’s grandfather.

Now you actually asked me to do these rough work.

I said, you little bastard, do you have any traditional virtues of respecting the elderly and loving the young?

"I must have something else to do!"

"Do you want to do it? If you don't do it, we don't do it anymore. I'm too lazy to care about these messy things!"

"Why not do it? I have to take a look. If you can't do it, what should you do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang took the shovel from Fang Shiyu's hand while muttering constantly.

The guards who were secretly responsible for the safety of Zhu Yuanzhang were stunned.

The person who dug the trenches was a father-in-law.

The one who was responsible for preparing the stones was Liu Bowen, a wise general.

And his immediate boss, the noble Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, rolled up his sleeves and was experiencing mud.

The handsome young man next to him was like a supervisor, and he would scold him from time to time.

We won't be silenced later, will we?

This picture is a bit eye-catching, no one dares to watch it!

“…”

"Xiao Fangzi, I have dug the ditches."

Almost half an hour later, Lan Yu came to Fang Shiyu and spoke loudly.

Although as the chief general of the military, he did not need to take the lead in charging and fighting with the enemy, Lan Yu has been practicing martial arts and never stopped.

In just half an hour, he actually dug out a trench two feet long and six feet deep.

"Good job, I wish you, have your mud be reconciled?"

Fang Shiyu praised with satisfaction and asked Zhu Yuanzhang next to him.

"It'll be fine right away."

Zhu Yuanzhang responded impatiently.

Although he became the emperor, his skills in working as a tenant farmer for others did not lose their grace.

Things like sesame sizes like mud.

Very simple.

“It’s already settled.”

"It's a good job. Now you pull this concrete next to the ditch, and I'll be useful later."

Fang Shiyu ordered to the two people next to him.

"Is this thing concrete? Why do I feel too similar to Sanhe soil? Is it really that magical to replace the clay inside with stones?"

Luo Furen was beside him, whispering while pulling the concrete, and while Fang Shiyu was not paying attention, he secretly stuffed a little into his mouth.

Damn it.

It's so unpalatable.

I almost blocked my throat.

When he arrived next to the ditch, Fang Shiyu directed Lan Yu to lay the bottom of the ditch with big stones picked up from outside.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Shiyu inserted the wooden stick he had just prepared vertically into the gap between the stones.

"With the concrete with steel bars, this is the real reinforced concrete. However, I don't have steel bars here, so I used these wooden sticks instead, but the effect is also very good."

Fang Shiyu explained to everyone next to him while inserting a wooden stick.

Before Fang Shiyu traveled through time, some remote places were still using bamboo sticks and wooden sticks instead of steel bars to build houses.

As long as you are not unlucky, the problem of earthquakes will not be very big.

After inserting all the wooden sticks in his hand, Fang Shiyu directed everyone to pour all the concrete into the ditches.

After about two feet of full, continue to spread stones into the gaps of the bamboo sticks, and then continue to pour concrete.

After repeating this several times, the entire ditche was filled with concrete.

"Now that's done, that's most of the rough version."

Fang Shiyu patted the dust on her body, and then looked at her masterpiece proudly.

Although the dam with reinforced concrete is a bit rough, not only is it bumpy and ugly on the outside, but it is also suspected of cutting corners inside, but its main function is still good.

It is much stronger than these dams built with stone and sanitary soil today.

"What did you say to me?"

"You said the dam has been built?"

When Luo Furen next to him almost jumped up when he heard Fang Shiyu speak like this.

He has presided over the construction of many dams and has rich experience.
