"I am a stranger in another world and miss my family more during the holidays."

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. On this day that makes people feel homesick, Yang You only left a while of time for herself to miss her and started her busy day.

Outside the gate of the East Palace, a four-wheeled carriage is noble and elegant, and the whole body is dark purple and black. It turns out that the entire body of this carriage is made of precious red sandalwood, which is amazingly costly.

Behind the rosewood four-wheeled carriage, a pink four-wheeled carriage was parked in front of the gate of the East Palace.

Compared with the carriage made of rosewood, the pink carriage is less domineering but more exquisite and transparent. What remains unchanged is that they are all so graceful.

This is Yang Jier's carriage, which was specially built for her by the Ministry of Industry.

I don’t know how Yang Ji’er got the news, and knowing that Yang You were going to inspect the resettlement of refugees today, he blocked the gate of the East Palace early in the morning. Yang You had no choice but to let her follow him.

Dong Yue rode a tall horse, patrolling around like a hawk and falcon.

"drive"

Dong Yue grabbed the horse's belly and the horse began to move forward slowly. The convoy behind began to follow slowly and drove slowly towards the east gate.

At this time, the Mid-Autumn Festival is not an important festival. The most important festivals here are the Spring Festival and Qingming Festival.

However, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is indeed the happiest festival for people in Daxing. Without the trouble of corvee and taxes, the autumn harvest has been completed long ago. If you want to celebrate at this time, is there anything that makes people feel more comfortable than celebrating the festival?

The entire Daxing City is shrouded in a rich festive atmosphere, with laughter and joy.

According to scholars in the 2014 Sui Dynasty, the reason why the Mid-Autumn Festival became popular was that it began with the celebration of the people of Daxing.

Yang Ji'er was so happy that she couldn't help herself. Although no one in the palace dared to mess with her, she was very pitiful.

The last time Yang You went to Luoyang, he was envious. This time he finally had the opportunity to leave the palace, as excited as a bird in a cage flying into the sky.

Feeling the almost undetectable shock of the carriage getting off the carriage, Yang Jier blushed with excitement, and urged the driver to speed up more and more. However, this is the inner city of Daxing, there are many residents here, and even the princess urged the driver to not dare to do so. If something goes wrong, it is still me who is unlucky!

"His Royal Highness Dai is on the way,"

The name of the king of the dynasty, Yang You, has been truly spread to the hearts of ordinary people. Just allowing money to serve on behalf of others, Daxing people were extremely grateful and watched. Almost all the streets were full of onlookers.

Of course, the weird four-wheeled carriage also attracted a lot of attention. In the eyes of Daxing citizens, the convoy drove out of Daxing City.

There are two different worlds inside and outside the city. There is a festive atmosphere of laughter and joy in the city, and a busy labor scene outside the city.

After leaving the city for only a few miles, you can see the bustling scene.

The young and strong are naturally the main force in this passionate work. Although the elderly and children cannot do heavy work, they will do some light work to start.

Looking at the official road under the car, Yang You was very satisfied. The progress of this project was much faster than in previous years. In previous years, the citizens of Daxing had to do these things, so naturally they saved the effort and did everything. They were all slaughter workers.

But these victims are different. They are earning a bite of life-saving food, and they all work very hard without anyone urging them.

Looking at the ordinary people who were sweating and smiling on both sides of the official road, Yang You knew that his efforts were not in vain. After passing this hurdle, Daxing would definitely usher in another period of rapid development, and it would not be impossible to surpass Luoyang.

Suddenly there was a noise coming from the front, and the convoy slowly stopped.

"What's going on?" Yang You asked, stretching out his head from the car window.

"Idiot Yang You, it seems that a car broke down in front of you, blocking the road." Yang Jier stretched her head long, almost half of her body had already poked out of the car.

"Report to His Highness, a brick-pulled vehicle in front of him broke down and blocked the road." The guard ran to the front with great care and found out the situation and came back to report.

Yang You nodded, not caring about this little thing. Suddenly, Yu Guang swept the bricks and stared at him.

He quickly got out of the car and came to the front of the road blocking vehicle. He bent over and picked up a brick, looked carefully and looked again and again, as if he had found a treasure.

"Red brick?" Yang You murmured.

"The color is red, of course it is red bricks. You are so stupid," Yang Jier also followed when she saw Yang You get off the car. A large group of guards hurriedly separated the crowd and kept a safe distance.

"It shouldn't be!" Yang You ignored Yang Ji'er and said to himself.

Yang Jier was in the deep palace for a long time and did not know that there were no red bricks in the Sui Dynasty. She has always used blue bricks. The ancient Romans invented the red bricks and has not yet been introduced to China.

When producing red bricks, the bricks are usually burned inside and outside with high fire, and then turned off to allow the kiln and bricks to cool naturally.

At this time, the air in the kiln was circulating and oxygen was sufficient, forming a good oxidation atmosphere, so that the iron elements in the bricks were oxidized into iron trioxide.

Since iron trioxide is red, it will also turn red. This is the red brick

If the bricks are burned through and water is constantly poured into the kiln, at this time, because the temperature in the kiln is very high, the water quickly turns into water vapor, which will prevent the circulation of air and form an oxygen-deficient environment in the kiln. The iron trioxide in the brick is reduced to ferrous oxide and exists in the brick. Since the ferrous oxide is blue-gray, the brick will be blue-gray. This is the blue brick.

Compared with blue bricks, red bricks are the result of reducing corners. Reducing the water-sinking process can save a lot of time and cost, but the quality is almost the same. This is also the reason why red bricks slowly replaced blue bricks in China later.

——Red bricks are cheap.

"Where did this pile of bricks come from!"

Yang You walked to the trembling coachman with a red brick and asked.

"Sir, please spare me, please spare me! Xiaomin deserves to die, Xiaomin deserves to die!"

The dark coachman heard Yang You's questioning and began to plead for himself.

"I, Yang You, I won't blame you. I just want to know where you got these bricks from." Yang You shook his head and said with a little laugh.

"Meet the King of Ninth!" The dark coachman suddenly became excited when he heard Yang You's name.

"Nin Wang," Yang You was very confused.

Under the messy explanation of the coachman, Yang You finally understood that this time he paid money and allowed labor to work for relief, so that countless people in Daxing could benefit and survive. Everyone was very grateful to him and believed that he was benevolent and righteous, and respected as King of Benevolence.

"When I say that, these are all waste bricks. My boss has a kiln factory. My young master practiced burning kilns for the first time a few days ago. He fell asleep and forgot to pour water on the brick kiln. He burned the bricks. The bricks turned red, and some were still half red. The villain was ordered by the young master to go to Daxing to find a buyer to deal with them at a low price." The coachman dared not hide it and said in a scattered manner.

Yang You suddenly realized that it was a waste brick. He picked up a few more bricks and looked at it. Sure enough, Qinghong looked very ugly.

Unexpectedly, Yang You would not let it go. With the secret recipe for making red bricks, mass production of cheap bricks can also be considered a contribution!

"Go and invite your young master over. I have something to ask."

The coachman left with a few guards.

"Yang You, let's go quickly! It's so dirty here." Yang Ji'er urged.

Yang Ji'er has always lived in the palace and loves to be clean the most. Now the ground is full of soil, which is very disgusting. So she asked several guards to combine a few bricks and stand up.

Yang You looked at the bricks underground and Yang Jier standing on top, and suddenly had an idea. He picked up a few bricks, spread them flat on the ground, and connected them with the bricks under Yang Jier's feet.

The guards hurriedly snatched the bricks. This kind of dirty work must not be done by His Highness Dai!

According to Yang You's instructions, around Yang Ji'er, pieces of green and non-red bricks were laid on the ground, forming a brick floor about a meter wide.

Yang Jier's foothold became the abbot's land in a short while.

"Yang You, you are so smart!" Yang Ji'er seemed to have forgotten that she was calling Yang You a fool just now, and in a blink of an eye she praised her for being smarter.

Yang Ji'er was jumping around on the brick surface happily. The place where she had only a few standing feet just now really made her feel very nervous. Now she is about a meter wide all of a sudden, and suddenly she feels much more comfortable.

Seeing the brick surface on the ground, Yang You suddenly fell into memories and remembered the small village in his previous life. At that time, the village-to-village project had just been opened and before the cement road was popularized, the villagers in his hometown raised money to build a brick road by themselves. At that time, wasn’t he as happy as Yang Jier in front of him?

The project of brick roads is simple. As long as there are bricks, the road can be paved. It has no technical content. Is it feasible to build brick roads in Daxing?

Of course it is feasible.
