Flying Bear Chapter 84 The Extravagance of the Wen Daxian - Rebar
Li Jie, who was going to be the prisoner, happened to come to Wen Fei to report that the cement firing had been successful. asked Wen Fei to check, but saw Wen Fei looking for someone to unload a car of rebar. Suddenly I was amazed, and I saw that the rebar was three or four zhang long, which was very surprising. Although he was going to be a prisoner, he knew a little bit about steelmaking: "Where did Father Shang get so much fine steel, but what was it for? If it was used to make spears and equip soldiers, wouldn't it be too extravagant? Not to mention that this length seemed to be too long and heavy, and I am afraid that it would not be conducive to use." I'm afraid that only those who have carefully selected strong men can use it. ”
Wen Fei laughed and laughed: "This is the steel I need to use to build the Shenxiao Heavenly Palace, where is the weapon!"
Li Jie was suddenly shocked: "Such a good steel actually came to build a house?"
Wen Fei nodded and said: "That's natural, if the wall foundation pillar doesn't have these steel bars, where can it be strong!"
Li Jie's cold sweat flowed down, so he had to say: "What is it, what is it...... What kind of house does Father Shang want to build, and how much steel is needed?"
Wen Fei has already got the renderings, and if he wants to do the construction or something, he still needs this Li Jie to do it. I opened the notebook and showed it to him, and said, "Look, this is the design plan!"
Li Jie has been surprised by Wen Fei these days, but today he saw Wen Fei bring so much steel over, saying that he was going to build a house, and he was already shocked. At this time, I couldn't be surprised when I looked at the lifelike pattern.
In fact, in order to determine the design plan, Wen Fei has discussed it with Xiao Yu many times. There are many good schemes. They all gave up because of the difficulty of the construction, if it weren't for Wenfei who paid the deposit to the design institute in advance. I'm afraid that people have already turned their faces.
Finally, a design scheme is proposed, which is also the least difficult. A straightforward tube building is only ten floors. Less than 40 meters high, it is just that the original flat roof has been replaced with a mountain-style cornice.
Li Jie glanced at it, and secretly said in his heart that such a square building is too ugly, where is there any heavenly palace......-like magnificence?
"What?" Li Jie originally said that it was like a palace of the Qin and Han dynasties. But it is nondescript, which is very inconsistent with his aesthetics. When I heard that the entire building was about to reach sixty meters high, I was shocked. Isn't such a high law even higher than the iron tower of Kaibao Temple?
didn't know that Wen Fei began to want to build a 100-meter-high building, but it was too difficult, and finally had to give up. For one, there are no drilling rigs to drive piles. Second, even if there are so many steel bars, there is no electric welding...... Therefore, I had to use such a construction scheme, which can be said to be the simplest according to this construction method.
Li Jiexin said: Why do I feel that such a building is a bit like the Lutai of the King of Zhou? The history books say, "It is three miles big and a thousand feet high." "But that's an exaggeration!"
Although the iron tower of Kaibao Temple is high, it is just a pagoda after all. It's also easy to build. Wenfei, on the other hand, is a whole building, and it is very difficult to build it so high.
Looking at the interior plan, the walls on all four sides are empty, and you can directly see the scenery outside. It's even more strange in my heart, but I don't know that these are the only places where Big Cave Wenfei is located. This tube building is ugly. However, it can be installed with a glass curtain wall, although this kind of thing makes you want to vomit when you look at it in the modern city. But in this Northern Song Dynasty time and space, when the time comes, it will look much more beautiful when it is folded and shining in the sun. It's just that in this ancient period, how to install this glass curtain wall, Wen Fei hasn't even figured it out.
Li Jiezi said carefully: "Although Father Shang's design is good, it should be the appearance of the Heavenly Palace." It's just that I'm mortal, but I'm not very suitable for this kind of architecture. Seemingly, it's a little too weird......"
Wen Fei also felt that this kind of building was too ugly, and when he heard Li Jie say this, he was not too confident in his heart.
Li admonished: "It's better to be like this, Father Shang will give his subordinates a few days." The subordinate made a gesture to show Father Shang......"
Wen Fei said in his heart, I can't invite so many modern designers. What can you design? But I didn't bother to say anything about it at this time, so I agreed.
Sending Li Jie away here, Zhao Ji was alarmed over there. Ran to see Wen Fei, and said cautiously: "Father Shang, I'm afraid that so much steel is 100,000 catties, right?"
Wen Fei calculated, he brought more than 20 tons, and said, "It's only 50,000 catties, what's wrong?"
Zhao Ji asked cautiously: "So much steel is buried in the ground?"
Wen Fei nodded: "Almost, right?"
Zhao Ji suddenly gasped, although he had always known that this heavenly court was luxurious and the immortals were rich. But he never thought that the immortals would be so rich, which was almost one-third of the steel produced by him in the entire Great Song Dynasty in a year, especially since these were still steel, not iron. This is even more amazing, it takes so much steel to build a palace...... Even Song Huizong began to feel that he was too loser.
"I don't think it seems that so much good steel can be used to build that Shenxiao Heavenly Palace, so it's better to keep this good steel and make it into a spear, or go into battle to kill the enemy!" Zhao Ji said.
Wen Fei laughed and laughed, he couldn't imagine that Zhao Ji didn't have the idea of making such a little rebar, and couldn't help laughing: "These are steel used for construction, and the official family wants to make weapons, which is very simple!
Zhao Ji was immediately overjoyed, not that he was unproductive, but that in this era, steelmaking technology was very backward, and such a large country could produce more than 100,000 tons of steel. And this will not be broken by the West until after the Industrial Revolution. So it's no wonder that seeing Wen Fei "spoiling" steel so much, even a loser like Song Huizong can't look at it......
In the Song Dynasty, the price of a pound of iron was around 80 Wen, which was only iron, and if it was steel, the price would be ten times higher. What's more, this is not a question of price at all, it is completely a matter of output. If you really buy tens of thousands of catties of steel in the Northern Song Dynasty, then the market doesn't know what it will fluctuate into, and I am afraid that it will rise dozens of times when you hear the news.
"Father Shang, these good steel houses are too extravagant!" Zhao Ji was still a little reluctant. With so much good steel, even if it is not suitable for weapons, it can at least be smelted...... So even if Wen Fei promised to get Zhao Ji some good weapons next time, Zhao Ji was still a little reluctant.
Wen Fei couldn't laugh or cry, isn't it just a few tons of crude steel? It's not worth much, what's the matter. Even Zhao Ji, who is not very reliable, and the emperor who doesn't care about business, is heartbroken like this...... I had to compromise and said: "Then what if my Shenxiao Heavenly Palace can't be built?"
