Chapter Thirteen: Jairus Must Report(2/2)
At this time, everyone discovered that the stones and rammed earth used to build the Great Wall had sunk deep into the foundation...
"Dig out these rocks and rammed earth." Xun ordered.
Cang was the first to object.
"master!"
"I don't know how deep these rocks have sunk!"
“I don’t even know how much I’ve sunk in!”
"If we had to dig them out piece by piece and then fill in the gaps, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to finish the work in three days!"
Xun frowned and replied:
"so what?"
"Build a new wall on this rubble?"
"You must know that there are many gaps between the rubble. If the new city wall is not good, it will collapse due to unstable foundation!"
"Do you think we can escape punishment then?"
Xun's worries are not unfounded.
Not to mention that Qin’s acceptance system is very strict...
Qin Law stipulates that if there is a quality problem with the city wall, Sikong, who is responsible for the inspection and acceptance, will also be punished.
Therefore, the acceptance personnel will be cautious for their own safety.
It is not an exaggeration to say that I am "picky".
Secondly, this is war time.
If there is a problem with the city wall during the war and it is breached by the enemy, it will not be as simple as punishment.
That is a proper death penalty.
Fatty Tun interjected at this moment.
"Master Engineer!"
"But we only have less than one day!"
"Can I ask the Captain for instructions?"
"Ask her for forgiveness for a few days!"
Xun smiled bitterly and shook his head, stealing a glance at Shen Bing.
"If I can plead for mercy, do you still need to say it?"
The craftsmen couldn't help but fell silent.
Shen Bing was speechless. He stepped forward and looked at the foundation, then moved a few pieces of rammed earth away to observe.
Soon he stood up, clapped his hands, and said confidently: "I don't need to build a wall anymore!"
"Why?" Xun asked confused.
