Chapter 904 Chapter 904, dead volcano
Shi Qukou.
Watching the guards of the Xiao Mansion leave on horseback, the patriarch Wang Qun hurriedly came to the Caolu where Wang Qi lived, and looked at him hesitantly: "Brother Qi, Master Xiao sent someone to invite you to meet you in Ganzhou City. Why not?"
Wang Qi smiled and said: "Brother Qun, please believe me, I know it in my heart."
Wang Qun sighed: "Brother Qi, I know how you think about it, but after all, Master Xiao is the eldest son of the Royal Mansion. The temperament and temperament of these nobles must be more arrogant than ordinary officials. I am worried that you will be self-defeating if you are so tentative. ."
Wang Qi smiled again: "Brother Qun, the last time I went to Ganzhou City was not in vain. Although I haven't seen Master Xiao with my own eyes, from the information obtained from various parties, it is not a single one. People who give up lightly."
"I didn't want to go to Ganzhou City this time, nor did I deliberately make it. I just want to see Master Xiao's determination to change Xiliang."
Wang Qun no longer said: "It's good if you know it in your heart, but I still want to remind you that Lord Xiao may be the only chance for us to get rid of the suppression of the Wei family."
After speaking, he turned and left.
Wang Qi looked at the back of the patriarch leaving, did not say much, and continued to read the book.
Xiao Mansion.
Seeing that the guard did not invite Wang Qi, Xiao Yeyang just raised his brows, and there were not too many surprises on his face.
Daohua smiled and said, "This is for you to visit the thatched cottage and invite it yourself."
Xiao Yeyang's expression is faint: "It's a good thing for a scholar to have a strong character. As long as you have real talent and learn, it doesn't matter if you have a temperament. I'm afraid it will be a reputation."
Speaking, looking towards the blessing.
"Get ready, go to Jinweiwei tomorrow."
Daohua hurriedly asked, "Wang Qi, are you not looking for it?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: "That person is testing me, let it go, and see who can use it. I am looking for a helper, not an ancestor."
Daohua wasn’t talking about this, but instead looked at Xiao Yeyang: “It’s only the sixth day tomorrow. You go to Ganzhouwei this time. Can you come back in time for the Lantern Festival?”
Xiao Ye paused for a moment, and took the rice flower: "I'm afraid I will stay for a while longer this time. After the beginning of the spring, this military town will be built along with the site selection."
Rice Flower: ". Then I will prepare more food for you later."
After , until mid-March, Xiao Yeyang was training the frontier army of Jinwei and preparing for the establishment of a military town. During the period, he did not send anyone to find Wang Qi.
This can make the patriarch of the Wang family anxious.
It was Wang Qi, and he was a little nervous.
Did he misunderstand Xiao Yeyang?
In fact, this person is no different from other nobles?
In late March, Xiao Yeyang returned to Ganzhou City. At this time, Daohua was also busy with spring ploughing.
Xiao Yeyang felt guilty for not having time to spend time with his wife: "I thought about it for a while and decided to go to Shiqukou myself. Would you like to go with me?"
Ina Flower nodded quickly: "Okay, okay! Why do you suddenly remember this again?"
Xiao Yeyang: "When Jin Weiwei was training soldiers, I chatted with some soldiers and inadvertently heard something about Wang Qi. I felt that this person might be more powerful than I thought."
Ina Flower: "How powerful is it?"
Xiao Yeyang: "Jin Weiwei's previous defense was more passive and lax than Ganzhouwei's. Most of the time, the Xiliao people hit their doorsteps, and the frontier army has not received any news yet."
"The villages and towns where the Wang clan used to live were slaughtered by the Xiliao people, but the Wang clan managed to escape."
"Leading one or two people to escape the pursuit of the Xiliao people is nothing, but there are hundreds of people in the Wang clan. Wang Qi can bring them out, which shows their ability."
Ina Flower: "Since I am going to visit, it is better to be more sincere. I will prepare a gift. No other. The mountains are wet and cold, so I will pull a few carts of briquettes and bring some cotton clothes over."
Xiao Yeyang smiled: "You can figure it out."
Shi Qukou.
The patriarch Wang Qun was sitting in Wang Qi’s cottage with an anxious expression: "Brother Qi, why don’t you go to Ganzhou City again? I asked, Master Xiao is very busy. Jin Weiwei trains soldiers, you have to wait for him to come personally. When will you wait?"
Looking at the anxiety on the patriarch’s face, Wang Qi sighed in his heart. When he was about to agree to it, Wang Lifu suddenly ran in in a hurry: "Sir, the patriarch, Mrs. Xiao came with Mrs. Xiao."
Hearing this, Wang Qun stood up in a ‘hit’, and Wang Qi also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Wang Qun came to Wang Qi in three steps and two steps: "Brother Qi, Master Xiao has already visited the door personally, so you will be hesitated any more. Let me go down the mountain to welcome the distinguished guests."
After finishing speaking, Wang Qi could not help but pulled Wang Qi out of the Cao Lu.
Wang Qi smiled helplessly, and let the patriarch take him out.
On the other side, Xiao Yeyang was walking up the mountain with Daohua. As soon as he reached halfway up the mountain, he saw Wang Qun and Wang Qi greet him.
"The Caomin has seen Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao."
As soon as Wang Qun and Wang Qi came forward, they saluted Xiao Yeyang and Daohua.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "The two of you don’t need to be polite. They suddenly came to the door. Didn’t you bother you?"
Wang Qun hurriedly replied, “It’s an honor for my Wang family to come with your sire and wife. How can I bother you?”
Xiao Yeyang smiled and nodded, holding Daohua, and walking up the mountain with Wang Qun and Wang Qi.
When I saw the thatched cottage where Wang Qi lived, Daohua was amused and wondered in amusement: Does this well-educated person like to live in thatched cottages?
Wang Qi invited Xiao Yeyang and Daohua into the house. After that, Xiao Yeyang and Wang Qi talked. Daohua was not very interested in what they were talking about. Seeing Wang Lifu standing outside the house, she got up and walked out. .
"Madam, but what's your order?"
Wang Lifu saw Daohua out of the house and ran over immediately.
Daohua smiled and asked, "Can you take me around?"
Wang Lifu nodded immediately: "Of course, madam please."
Wang Lifu took Daohua to the highest point of the mountain.
Standing here, you can not only see the foot of the mountain, but also the place where the Wang clan lives.
"what?"
Daohua was surprised to find that the house where the Wang family lived was actually built in a circular pit, which instantly reminded her of the extinct volcanoes she had seen in her previous life.
When I think of volcanoes, I think of volcanic ash, and when I think of volcanic ash, I think of cement.
Daohua quickly looked at Wang Lifu: "Lifu, is there a bare place on your mountain where no grass grows?"
Wang Lifu nodded hurriedly: "How do you know, madam, the back mountain is nothing long, I will show you over there?"
Ina Flower nodded: "Okay."
Not long after, Daohua followed Wang Lifu to the back mountain, and saw a large area of exposed tuff.
I don’t know how the cement is made, but she knows the cement-like material that volcanic ash and lime can produce together.
Building roads with this material is definitely more durable and durable than gravel roads and dirt roads.
Xiao Yeyang and Wang Qi had a very speculative chat, and it took an hour or two without realizing it.
"Mr. Talent, would you like to come to work with me?"
Facing Xiao Yeyang's solicitation, Wang Qi didn't hesitate this time: "It's an honor for the adults, and the Caomin should try his best to assist the adults."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and nodded. After discussing the matter, he realized that Daohua hadn't come back, so he went out of the house with Wang Qi and found the back mountain.
"Why are you still playing with rocks?"
Xiao Yeyang reluctantly walked to Daohua's side and took the stone in her hand.
Daohua quickly said, “Xiao Yeyang, these stones are not ordinary stones. They are tuff. Together with lime, they can be used to make a very strong building material.”
"This material can be used to repair roads and city walls. It is definitely much stronger than stone and soil."
Xiao Yeyang heard it, and his expression suddenly became serious: "Really?"
It was Wang Qi, who also looked over.
Ina Hua immediately nodded: "I saw it in the script."
Hearing this, Wang Qi was a little bit dumbfounded.
Unexpectedly, this Madam Xiao was so innocent and believed the things in the script.
However, what shocked him was that Xiao Yeyang nodded in agreement: "When we leave later, pull a few carts of this kind of stone back and let the craftsmen try as you say."
