"Hey! Everyone is so early!"

Seeing that everyone was there, Xiao Zhengtai took the initiative to come forward and say hello.

"I have met His Majesty, I have met the young master...!"

The four of them bowed their hands.

"Well! No need to be polite!"

Outside, Ying Zheng didn't want anyone to notice his identity, so he tried his best to prevent them from giving gifts.

Fortunately, this is Xiao Zhengtai's winery, and the craftsmen are all old craftsmen from the past. Even if they knew that he was the emperor, no one would do anything!

"Feiyu, didn't I give you enough money? Why does the wall of this winery look so strange, as if it is made of mud?"

Ying Zheng had a sharp eye and immediately discovered the problem after briefly walking around the winery twice.

"Yo! It's true!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Han and others also discovered it and walked near the wall.

Nowadays, only ordinary people can build houses with mud. People with money and status like them use double-layered blue bricks!

The worst thing is to use a layer of blue bricks with mud on the outside!

But the thin layer in front of me is definitely not this kind.

Because of the blue bricks and the two layers of mud on the front and back, the thickness of the wall is almost the length of two palms combined.

There is only a thin layer in front of you!

It's quite smooth!

"Father, you are really right this time. This thing is called cement, which is also a kind of mud!"

Young Shota slapped the wall and introduced.

"Cement? Mud mixed with water?"

"Isn't all mud mixed with water? What's so strange about it?"

Ying Zheng disagreed.

"This one is different from what you usually see. This one is not afraid of wind and rain. It is durable and cannot be damaged even if it is hit with a hammer!"

"What? It's such a thin mud wall that can't be broken with a hammer?"

Everyone present, except Huang Yuan, no one believed it.

Let alone a mud wall, even if it is a brick wall, you will have to smash it with a sledgehammer!

"If you don't believe it, try it. If it breaks, I'll cover all of your Wuliangye this year!"

Xiao Zhengtai smiled confidently.

"really?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Han, Wang Ben and others' eyes suddenly lit up.

Especially Wang Ben, he has been practicing martial arts for many years. Even if there is no war recently, he will practice with me for several hours every morning, never stopping!

Although his hands are not as strong as this little guy, he still weighs three to five hundred pounds. If he swings a sledgehammer, he can smash a hole in even a brick wall, let alone a mud wall!

"Of course, can I still lie to you?"

After Xiao Zhengtai finished speaking, Wang Ben was eager to try and began to move his wrists.

Zhang Han was also very happy and quickly went to find the sledgehammer!

Wuliangye costs ten gold per kilogram. If they didn't spend any money, they could drink at least three hundred kilograms a month. It's wonderful to think about it!

"Puff..."

After getting the hammer, Wang Ben spit on his hand a few times to prevent it from slipping. He had done enough preparations.

"I said Lao Wang, it's up to you whether we can drink Wuliangye for free!"

Zhang Han had high hopes for him.

"Just watch it!"

Wang Ben glanced contemptuously at the thin cement wall and showed a confident smile.

Ying Zheng has a big belly and is very confident in him!

This guy is so muscular that he can easily defeat thousands of troops on the battlefield, let alone a small mud wall!

"Your Majesty, please stay away for now. My hammer is not very serious. It might break the whole wall. Don't hurt Your Majesty!"

Wang Ben reminded with confidence.

"Yes, yes, we'd better stay away!"

Zhang Han protected Ying Zheng and quickly retreated.

"Young Master, please step back as well!"

"No, it's good if you can break some pieces!"

Little Shota sneered.

"Then young master, you should pay attention!"

With Xiao Zhengtai's ability, it would be no problem to protect himself, so Wang Ben stopped trying to persuade him and started to use the sledgehammer.

"boom……"

Wang Ben concentrated all his strength on his hand and hammered it down, making a huge sound.

However, the mud wall in front of me didn't move at all, not even a scrap!

"Ouch!"

The mud wall rebounded, making Wang Ben's hands and arms numb from the shock, and he immediately threw the hammer.

"Haha, how about it? Father-in-law, do you want to try it again? If you break it, you can drink Wuliangye for free!"

Seeing this scene, Mr. Shota suddenly laughed.

"No, no, no, don't try, my arm will be useless if you try again!"

Wang Ben squatted on the ground, shaking his head repeatedly and not even daring to raise his hands.

Seeing this scene, Ying Zheng felt a huge wave of emotion in his heart. He walked to the wall and looked at the place where Wang Ben had just hit it with a hammer. "You didn't even leave a mark?"

"Of course, this cement is made of several different kinds of mud, configured in different proportions, and is stronger than any kind of mud now!"

Xiao Zhengtai gave a brief introduction.

Although different soil qualities were also combined in this era to increase the firmness, compared with cement, it is completely incomparable, otherwise it would not be widely used in future generations!

"Yes, yes, if this kind of mud is used to build the Great Wall, it will not be a problem to resist the Huns!"

Ying Zheng's eyes lit up.

"Cement is widely used in building houses, city walls, and if conditions permit, it can also be used to build roads. The roads built with cement are very flat, not afraid of wind and rain, and will not be muddy even on rainy days. It is easy to use.

Incredible!"

"Well, you have a good idea. If you use cement to build the road, it will be more convenient to travel in the future!"

"I just don't know how much your cement costs?"

"It's just a few kinds of mud mixed together, and the cost is not high!"

In this era, there is no need to spend money to buy sand and gravel. All that is needed to make cement is labor and transportation, which does not cost much at all.

"That's good, you will start mass production later, and I will reinforce the Great Wall!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and issued the order.

"No problem. As for the price...should we discuss it in detail later?"

The young lady rubbed her fingers in a very philistine manner and laughed.

"What? You want more money?"

Ying Zheng immediately stopped working.

"Of course, it costs money to hire craftsmen and transport materials. You can't do a loss-making business!"

"Let's do this. I'll give my father a sentimental price. As long as it's needed in the palace, how about I only take half of the profit?"

Knowing that Ying Zheng was stingy, Ying Feiyu directly gave him a discount.

The palace is a big customer and will need countless amounts of cement in the future. Small profits but quick turnover!

"Um...this...?"

Ying Zheng stroked his beard and began to think. After a moment, he nodded, "Okay! Let's do it. You kid, hurry up and increase production. I will strengthen the Great Wall first, and then renovate all the houses in the palace. Slowly

, I want to build all the roads in the Qin Dynasty with cement, so that the people will not have trouble hauling food from now on!"

"Okay! My son, I will tell you to expand the cement factory!"

Xiao Zhengtai agreed happily.

As expected of the First Emperor, his vision is long-term!
Chapter completed!
