Zhang Heng went to the corner and brought a hammer over, handed it to Han Xiunian and said, "Come on, Han Zhuangzhuang, you can try its properties."

Han Xiunian hesitated and said, "It doesn't matter if you break it?"

Zhang Heng smiled and said: "It's just for testing, otherwise wouldn't it be weird to have a big hammer in my yard?"

Han Xiunian was worthy of being a technical official. After hearing this, he asked Zhang Heng to stay away. He picked up a big hammer and smashed it on the cement table. With a bang, the big hammer bounced high, and Han Xiunian's hands were shaken.

Got numb.

He quickly put down the big hammer and went over to take a closer look. He found that not only did the cement table not fall apart, it didn't even crack. There was just a white spot on it.

Han Xiunian was surprised and said: "This is as strong as a stone. I want to know what this thing looked like before?"

Zhang Heng asked someone to go to the warehouse and bring out a bag of cement. Han Xiunian looked at it and saw that it was black-gray powder. He was surprised again and said, "Is this cement?"

Zhang Heng nodded and said: "Yes, this thing is mixed with sand, then mixed with water, and pasted into various shapes according to needs. After it dries, it will look like a stone.

This material is an excellent material for building roads, building bridges, and building sluices. Now we have begun to build several large-scale cement workshops and will soon be able to provide it on a large scale."

Han Xiunian asked with concern: "What is the cost of this thing?"

Zhang Heng smiled and said: "There are raw materials for this thing in the mountains. It is prepared by burning it. It mainly costs labor. The materials are not valuable. Oh, yes, the same situation is true for bricks. They need to be fired by people. The rest are all

It’s a trivial matter, now Han Zaozhuo, you have to do the math, in this case, is 2.7 million yuan enough?”

Han Xiunian frowned tightly. He counted the branches on the ground for a long time and said, "About... it should be... OK?"

Zhang Heng laughed: "That's fine."

Han Xiunian smiled bitterly and said: "I haven't calculated this carefully, and I can't guarantee it. Besides, you may not know much about the project. If something goes wrong during this period, the gap may be very big!"

Zhang Heng nodded and said: "Well, we should start it anyway. Cement workshops and brick factories not only cost money, they can also make money. Now we only need about enough. We will need money in the future."

Let the officials handle it!"

Han Xiunian suddenly remembered Zhang Heng's great achievements when he was in Bianjing, and immediately became more confident and filled with joy.

Can you not be happy? If this project is completed, the Xijiang Delta may become a prosperous place comparable to the Yangtze River Delta, and he will also be remembered by the people of the Xijiang Delta.

Hehe, we have to work hard to erect a monument at that time. It would be best if Zhang Sanyuan writes it himself. Ha, if we can invite Fan Xianggong or Zeng Xianggong or Jia Xianggong to write it, I will be remembered forever. Tsk,

Didn't Teng Zijing just build a Yueyang Tower? He asked Fan Xianggong to write a story about the Yueyang Tower. Tsk...

Han Xiunian left happily.

Zhang Heng looked at Han Xiunian's back and nodded with a smile. He had specially asked someone to ask about Han Xiunian, the construction officer. This person was very skilled and serious about his work. He was just a relatively simple technocrat. He was invited to build the embankment.

, basically you don’t have to worry too much.

Zhang Heng has too many things to consider, and it is impossible to spend too much time on specific things. He only needs to make demands. As for how to realize them, it should be completed by the people below.

After Han Xiunian left, Zhang Heng sat in the yard, thinking about things quietly.

Lu Yining came over and saw Zhang Heng who was deep in thought and teased: "What are you holding back here?"

Zhang Heng looked up and saw Lu Yining, and said with a smile: "Why, how is the cement workshop doing?"

Lu Yining smiled and said: "There is nothing difficult about that thing. Once you find the raw materials, it is easy to bake. Limestone, iron ore and various clays can be found everywhere on Guangnan East Road. There are a lot of fired wood on the mountain. This is a deserted place for thousands of years."

For thousands of years, the most indispensable thing is trees. They are almost inexhaustible and they are mainly labor-intensive.

The people below have identified four or five places, dug various cave dwellings, and have begun trial firing. It is estimated that they will be available on a large scale soon.

But when can the construction of this embankment be started? The cement cannot be left for a long time. The climate here on Guangnan East Road is too humid. If it is left for a long time, it will be useless."

Zhang Heng smiled and said: "Soon, cement can be sold freely. As long as it does not delay the construction, it can be sold to the private sector! The money sold will go to the state government to build bridges and build roads!"

Lu Yining glanced at Zhang Heng and said, "It's your generosity!"

Zhang Heng shrugged and waved his hands: "I'm not short of money!"
