HCB Chapter 184 Cement Recipe
Chapter 184 Cement Recipe
When the Third Prince and his companions returned, both backpacks were filled with wild vegetables.
The Third Prince and his companions were carrying some wild animals, including two pheasants, four rabbits, and Zhong Ruiyu was also holding a large bundle of toon shoots.
When Zheng Sisi saw the hares and pheasants, she asked, "How did you manage to hunt game when you didn't even bring any hunting gear?"
Zhong Ruiyu said proudly: "Don't you see who we went with? When we saw the wild game, Azhen just grabbed a small stone and it was done."
Zheng Sisi gave the Third Prince a thumbs up, and then said to Zhong Ruiyu: "You are so proud, I thought you were the one who beat them all."
Zhong Ruiyu stiffened his neck and said, "I, I found it, hum!"
It made a few people laugh again.
By the time they returned to the yard, lunch was already ready.
After dinner, Zheng Sisi suggested that everyone take a nap to refresh themselves. She planned to go to the field in the afternoon to see how much land had been dug. If there was a lot, she would plant corn.
The third prince also agreed and said they would go together in the afternoon.
When Zheng Sisi saw the situation in the village and thought about the lack of fertilizer in the fields, she thought about the pig farm. She planned to build a pig farm like the one she had at Wohushan Farm. In the future, the pigs would have grass, fertilizer, and meat to eat, killing two birds with one stone.
She told the plan to the third prince, who agreed with it.
Zheng Sisi took out a piece of paper and handed it to the third prince: "Sheng Zhen, I have a material for building a house here. This is the formula. I don't know if you can make it. I'll give it a try for you first."
The third prince took the paper, which had the method of making cement written on it. He read it and asked in confusion: "What is cement and what is it used for?"
Zheng Sisi moved closer, and the Third Prince smelled a fragrance because of her proximity. The smell was very pleasant, and it shocked the Third Prince's heart. He wanted to get closer to smell it again, and he would never get tired of it for the rest of his life.
Zheng Sisi didn't know what the Third Prince was thinking. She pointed at the words on the paper and said, "Cement is an industrial material. Building a house with it is windproof and can be very high without collapsing. Building roads with cement is very strong and the road surface is not easy to rot. It is also very clean and free of mud, just like laying blue bricks on the ground, clean and flat."
The third prince looked at Zheng Sisi's delicate profile up close. Except for the dark spots on her face, everything about her face was pretty.
Seeing that the Third Prince looked at her without any reaction, Zheng Sisi asked, "What do you think?"
The third prince came back to his senses and asked, "Does it take a lot of cement to build the road?"
Zheng Sisi: "No, just mix cement and sand together, spread a layer on the road surface and brush it to make it smooth. Wait until it dries and it's done. Find the materials according to the instructions first, and I'll teach you how to make it."
The Third Prince nodded: "Okay, I'll have someone collect the materials."
Zheng Sisi said: "It's best to find a place with a mountain of rocks. When you crack the rocks, you'll see white."
The third prince nodded: "Yes."
Then the third prince went out to find Qingmu, copied the recipe on the paper and taught it to him, asking him to find someone to collect the materials.
Aoki took the order and left.
In the afternoon, Zheng Sisi took a team of people to the field again, carrying a bag of corn. This time the team was bigger, with guards, servants, and Uncle Ma and a few others.
When they arrived at the field, they had already dug out more than two acres of land. Zheng Sisi gathered the villagers together and taught them how to plant corn. Since many people had planted corn before, they were all very skilled in the operation. It was actually a very simple matter and they could learn it once.
Everyone divided the work and cooperated with each other, some dug holes, some sowed seeds, and some covered the soil, all in perfect harmony.
I brought a lot of seeds with me, and there were still a lot of seeds left after planting more than two acres of land, so I planted them while turning the land. Zheng Sisi handed all the work over to Uncle Ma, and she took her people back to the yard to deal with the wild vegetables she dug up today.
After returning to the yard, Zheng Sisi found that she had forgotten something very important. She forgot to go to Yaocun's yard to see how much food was left, and she also needed to bring back the rice seeds to soak in water for germination.
The third prince knew that Zheng Sisi was busy, so he took over the task. He took a few people, took the key from the study, and went to Yao Village.
