469 Questioning and Effort

"Jokes? What does this mean? Zheng Peng said with some confusion.

Landuo pointed to the Linghe River and said: "See, the river is so deep, the water is so urgent, it is a problem for people to stand firm in the water, it is difficult to make bridge piers at all, unless you make a pontoon bridge, but you just die, threatening to do something that cannot be crushed by the century-old bridge, people are looking at you, but waiting to see your jokes." ”

Ancient science and technology were not developed, and it was not impossible to make dams and build bridges, that is, to weave gabions one by one, put stones in the cages, tie them tightly, connect them together with hemp rope, and then push them together to the designated position, so that the water is not easy to push, and then use the method of quantity, constantly accumulating, almost the feeling of building mountains in the water.

The bridge built in this way is called a pontoon bridge, the reason is very simple, when the water washes away the sediment under the stone, or the water flow pushes the "stone mountain", so that the bridge needs to be adjusted from time to time, Zheng Peng preached to the outside world to build a hundred years of stability, the bridge can not be crossed, the way of the pontoon bridge is not lucky.

What will he do?

When Lan Duo said Zheng Peng, in the crowd of onlookers watching the woman, Xiaolan inadvertently saw Cui Yufang in the crowd, and immediately walked over: "Yufang, you are also here, do you want to see your sister-in-law?" ”

"Little Wave Hoof, if you want to come, don't you allow me to come." Cui Yufang twisted Xiaolan's waist.

"Don't, don't, don't" Xiaolan hurriedly begged for mercy: "Yufang, I know it's wrong, you can spare the little girl." ”

"You know each other."

The two laughed and chatted for a while, and Xiaolan lowered her voice and said, "Yufang, are you worried about your set of flower and wooden furniture, so you came here to see it?" ”

"Worried?" Cui Yufang said with a sneer: "I have to say, this Zheng Peng is lucky, he can become a general as a music official, and he will become a great talent by writing a few songs, even if he goes to drink flower wine, he also gets an oiran, but what is needed to build a bridge is not luck, but also technology, he has never built a bridge, it is not an exaggeration to say that such a rapid river, let alone building a bridge, Miss Ben sees that he can't even build a bridge pier." ”

Speaking of this, Cui Yufang said with some schadenfreude: "My good cousin, still waiting for him to build an overwhelming bridge for Boling, and then marry her, I don't want to think about it, over the years, even with my eldest father's generation, how many craftsmen have been invited and how many times the army has built the bridge, the result is only two things, either it can't be built, or it can't be built. ”

Xiaolan sneered, and couldn't help laughing: "It's just that it can be built, with that pile of rotten wood, can resist the set of flower and wooden furniture that you can overturn the boat with one piece?" In my opinion, that Zheng Gongzi is just the same, but the guard next to him is good, hehe, do you see it, as soon as he exerts his strength, the little mouse with his elbow runs around, and he can see that people's hearts are confused. ”

"Little Lang Hoof, you can also look down on those cheap bones and Tian Shenu, if you marry over, don't you make a face?"

"Ouch, laugh at me, see how I clean you up."

"Don't, I'm afraid of Xu, Xiaolan...."

Cui Yufang and Xiaolan were waiting to see Zheng Peng's jokes, many Boling women at the scene, in addition to coming to see what Zheng Peng looked like, they also heard that Zheng Peng was going to build a bridge in the Ling River, so they came to see how he did it.

In addition to Cui Yufang, many women also whispered, mostly about how Zheng Peng could build a bridge in the Linghe River, and many people had a questioning look on their faces.

It's not a joke now, if it can't be built, it's a joke.

Some women also asked the servants to bring tables and small benches, and played leaf cards in the shade of the trees while watching, anyway, there was no entertainment, and some had free time, so they should join in the fun.

If others were to be watched by so many women, it would probably be a little overwhelming, but for a person like Zheng Peng, who has inspected thousands of troops in the Western Regions and crossed the beautiful women such as Yunping Kangfang in Chang'an, this is just pediatrics.

Do what you have to do.

After designing the pattern, Zheng Peng put the charcoal pencil down, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, just build it in this style." ”

Li Bai pointed to a specially marked white area in the middle of the bridge and said, "Young master, what is this piece for, and it is deliberately circled?" ”

"Silly, Young Master Ben has worked hard to build a bridge, of course he has to give it a name." Zheng Peng said unceremoniously.

When he first saw Li Bai, Zheng Peng was shocked and excited in his heart, you know, he didn't read his poems less when he was a child, and he didn't get points from the questions about him in the exam, he was definitely a god-level idol in the hearts of students, but after getting along for a long time, he found that Li Bai was also a human being, and he also ate whole grains, and sometimes he was a little cute, and he became casual to him.

"Childe, the matter of naming the bridge will be handed over to Taibai, and I promise to satisfy you." Li Bai took the initiative to ask.

As a staff member, Li Bai has not made an inch, and he has long wanted to show it, so he immediately seized this opportunity.

If you don't show it again, you're afraid that others will say that you're eating and drinking.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, but the final decision is in the hands of this young master."

Li Bai nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "That's nature." ”

There are many people and great strength, and at this time, the lock river rope has been done, Cui Er trotted over and said: "Childe, this river is locked, what do you think you should do next?" ”

Zheng Peng and Lu Shu have been engaged, that is his future uncle, Cui's three rooms and one vein only have one single seedling, it is very likely that he will go with Miss, Cui Er is naturally very enthusiastic about Zheng Peng.

"Steward Cui has worked hard."

"It's not hard, these are what those of us who should do, Lang Jun has instructed, fully cooperate with the son, and just tell me if I have something."

Zheng Peng was also polite: "That's good, Steward Cui, you let people rely on the iron ring on our side, within seven zhang, to drive down the wooden stakes, how dense and dense, I need a slow water area to build bridge piers, understand?" ”

"Understood."

"Very well, the same goes for the other side of the river."

"Childe, leave this matter to me, it will be done properly." Cui Er patted his heart on the spot.

Although I don't know what Zheng Peng is going to do, I just listen to what he says.

Cui Er is also a man of action, and quickly gathered people, put a wooden stake through the iron ring, and then used the way of piling, and nailed it tightly to the riverbed, which is a physical work, and it is easier to land on the shore, and it is difficult to stand firm in deep water, and you have to find a way to climb to a high place and swing the hammer hard.

Seeing those sturdy men, tied together with two ladders, and tightly supported by people below, a strong man carrying a big wooden hammer climbed up to drive piles, and looked dangerous.

The conditions in ancient times were like this, and Zheng Peng had no choice but to let Cui Er do it, and he was about to deal with other things.

It's March, and there are less than two months left before the rainy season, so we must get both piers in order before the rainy season, otherwise the flood will come and all the previous efforts will be in vain.

"Childe, childe" At this time, a procurement officer named Cui Datian ran over: "I bought the rosin you wanted." ”

Zheng Peng was overjoyed, and immediately said, "Let me see." ”

As soon as Cui Datian beckoned, several healthy servants came over with a few sacks, and put the sacks in front of Zheng Peng, and as soon as Zheng Peng opened it, he immediately smelled a pungent smell.

The bag was full of lumps of golden, amber-like lumps, which were exactly the rosin that Zheng Peng needed.
