Jiang Tian walked over.
On the floor of Song Yingxing's office.
There were a dozen or so cement crates, and next to them was a bag of cement that hadn't been used up yet.
"Show me how to make it." Jiang Tian pointed to the wooden cement baskets.
Song Yingxing nodded, ignoring the dust and cement powder on his body.
Song Yingxing poured the bag of cement powder onto the ground, raising dust everywhere.
Jiang Tian mixed sand and pebbles in a certain proportion, and then poured in a certain proportion of water.
He used a shovel to quickly mix the four ingredients together.
Next, Song Yingxing used an iron shovel to shovel the mixed cement into a wooden basket.
The final step is to use a scraper to scrape the surface until it is very smooth.
Meanwhile, Song Yingxing's apprentice was using a nearby water clock to keep track of time.
They arrived in half an hour.
Song Yingxing took a hammer, walked up to the wooden basket, and smashed it down with the hammer.
"My lord, please look. The hardness of this cement has reached more than 50% of the designed hardness." As Song Yingxing spoke, he repeatedly tapped the already hardened cement block with an iron hammer.
A series of clanging and banging sounds rang out.
The hammer struck the cement block, sending sparks flying.
Song Yingxing knocked on the cement block more than 30 times before some cracks appeared.
Jiang Tian was completely stunned.
The skill books provided by this system are way too powerful!
Following the recipe in the skill book, Song Yingxing actually managed to experiment with producing this fast-setting cement.
The solidification speed is too fast, and the hardness is too high.
This stuff is even stronger than the cement used to build cross-sea bridges in the 21st century.
"Not bad, not bad." Jiang Tian nodded in satisfaction. "Give me a large-scale road paving and bridge construction project."
As Jiang Tian spoke, he walked out of Song Yingxing's laboratory.
He looked up and gazed into the distance.
"If you want to get rich, build roads first."
"Can this cement be produced on a large scale?" Jiang Tian glanced back at Song Yingxing.
Song Yingxing nodded: "My lord, producing cement is not troublesome. Our science and technology department can assemble a set of cement production equipment in just a few days."
I estimate that our first-generation cement production equipment could produce several hundred tons of cement per day.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tian realized that the amount of cement used in the floor was already quite substantial.
"I'll wait and see."
"Rest assured, my lord, I will absolutely not let you down."
Our lord will surely live to see this day.
“My lord,” Song Yingxing said as he walked to the door, “production will begin within a month, and we will produce at least 5,000 tons of cement.”
Jiang Tian knew that Song Yingxing never boasted.
Song Yingxing said that if he could do it, he definitely could.
"I want you to build this road network so that it can extend in all directions, and I want you to build our city tall and grand."
Song Yingxing has already developed a generator, and large steam engines produced by their science and technology department are being continuously shipped to Taizhou.
Zheng He is building treasure ships in Taizhou. Jiang Tian is tasked with ensuring that all of Zheng He's large treasure ships are equipped not only with advanced sails but also with sufficient steam engines.
This would help Zheng He's treasure ships sail quickly.
Song Yingxing didn't say anything, just nodded, and went back to his office to continue his research with his apprentices.
Quick-drying cement has been developed.
The next step is to develop and produce the equipment.
The book Jiang Tian gave to Song Yingxing contained everything.
He only needs to follow the diagrams in the book.
Song Yingxing promised Jiang Tian that he would complete a cement production line within a month and produce 5,000 tons of cement.
Jiang Tian knew that large cement plants in the 21st century all had dozens of large sets of equipment.
Large cement plants can produce thousands or even tens of thousands of tons of cement a day.
Song Yingxing assured that his cement plant's daily output of several hundred tons would already be a considerable scale.
This kid is getting better and better.
...
Inside the palace.
Fengfeng and Yueyue are already able to walk unsteadily.
Jiang Tian was overjoyed when he saw it.
Qian Renxue nestled in Jiang Tian's arms, overjoyed as she looked at their child.
"Fengfeng has grown six teeth."
"Yueyue has already grown six teeth."
Qian Renxue's face was full of smiles.
This little girl is now pouring all her enthusiasm into her two children.
"We should prepare oxcarts for them."
As Jiang Tian spoke, he opened the system store.
He redeemed two high-quality scooters and two balance bikes.
As soon as Jiang Tian took out the scooter, he started entertaining the two children.
The two children were overjoyed by the cartoon-shaped scooter.
Jiang Tian rode on a tug-of-war cart, gently rocking it with his hands.
The car moved forward rapidly, twisting left and right.
The two children saw it and, although they didn't know how to express it, they kept babbling "Awa ah wa."
Jiang Tian stopped.
Qian Renxue walked over.
"Husband, the children have been calling for their father while you've been away these past few days."
"Come on, call me one!" Jiang Tian said excitedly.
The joy that children bring him is irreplaceable by anything else.
The two children excitedly got on their balance bikes.
Their two short legs kept kicking on the ground.
The scooter glided forward quickly.
