The carriage was parked in an open space inside the farm, on which was a paved cement road.
Chu Jinglin was the first to jump off the carriage, followed by Han Mingyuan. After Han Mingyuan came out, he did not leave, but prepared to help Mr. Qinghe down.
Han Xiao went over to help, and when Mr. Qinghe stepped on the ground, he keenly noticed something was wrong.
It is not soft land, but hard and smooth "slate".
Mr. Qinghe said "hmm~", pushed Han Xiao away, and looked down at the "cement road" under his feet.
Lu Ming stepped forward at the right moment and said, "Mr. Qinghe, this is the cement road that Han Xiao built."
Mr. Qinghe waved his hand to tell Lu Ming not to speak. He squatted down and touched the floor with his hand.
After a long time, he took a deep breath. Seeing this, Han Xiao quickly helped Mr. Qinghe up.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Qinghe's eyes lit up surprisingly, and he patted Han Xiao on the shoulder: "Hahaha, good boy, I didn't expect that you could accomplish such a big thing without saying a word."
Everyone present was very smart, and it was the first time for Han Mingyuan and Chu Jinglin to see a cement road.
So when Mr. Qinghe was observing the cement road just now, the two of them were also thinking.
By the time they reacted, they understood what benefits this cement mud could bring to Jiang State.
Chu Jinglin also wanted to go up and take a picture of Han Xiao, but he didn't dare to go because Mr. Qinghe was still there.
Seeing that the road was almost finished, Lu Ming stepped forward again and said, "Mr. Qinghe, this is just an ordinary cement road. There is a more reinforced one ahead. Would you like to go and take a look?"
"Oh? There are even stronger ones?" Mr. Qinghe said in surprise.
"Yes, this is just the initial material ratio. It can be used as an ordinary road. Pedestrians can walk on it for ten or twenty years without any problem. However, if it is used for a convoy of vehicles, it is still a little insufficient. Sir, please follow me."
The back was almost Lu Ming's stage. Lu Ming and Lu Qingyun followed Han Xiao and watched the birth of cement in person.
So he knows as much about cement as Han Xiao does.
Han Xiao followed them slowly, occasionally instructing the workers on their movements.
With Lu Ming around, Han Xiao felt much more relaxed. Mr. Qinghe was completely fascinated and kept asking Lu Ming questions. When he encountered something interesting, he even wanted to do it himself.
It is especially wonderful to see the cement-paved road with people coming and going on it, imitating pedestrians walking, and carriages passing by, and then it is washed with water. After all this tossing and turning, the cement road is still as good as new.
Mr. Qinghe walked up himself, steadily and without any mud after being washed by water. He then pushed a cart from the workers, also very easily.
The more he looked, the brighter Mr. He's eyes became.
He stared at Lu Ming and Lu Qingyun and said, "How much do these cost?"
Lu Ming seemed to have known that Mr. Qinghe would ask this question: "Sir, please follow me."
As Lu Ming spoke, he led his men to a yard at the back. There were quite a few people guarding the yard, and it was obvious at a glance that they were not ordinary guards.
One of them immediately saluted when he saw Chu Jinglin: "Third Prince 1"
Mr. Qinghe raised his eyebrows: "It seems that the Third Prince has known about this for a long time?"
"Jinglin doesn't dare. This is also Lu Ming who asked me to borrow people, but they didn't disclose what they were going to do."
“Huh, these people are all yours, you say you don’t know what you think is appropriate?”
Chu Jinglin pursed his lips and said firmly, "Lu Ming has been in charge of these matters from beginning to end. If Han Xiao hadn't told me, Lu Ming wouldn't have revealed it to me in advance."
Lu Ming immediately stepped forward when he saw the atmosphere was not right. "Yes, yes, sir. Han Xiao said that this must be kept secret beforehand and he will not tell anyone about this. Even the Third Prince is here for the first time."
Mr. Qinghe's originally serious expression suddenly relaxed: "Hahahaha, it's just a joke, Third Prince, there's no need to take it so seriously."
Chu Jinglin had a layer of sweat on his forehead, and he didn't relax at all when he heard what Mr. Qinghe said.
Han Xiao saw how nervous Chu Jinglin was, so he walked up to Chu Jinglin, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, third brother, grandpa was just joking with you."
Chu Jinglin secretly rolled his eyes at Han Xiao, slapped Han Xiao's hand away and said, "Don't I know?"
Mr. Qinghe watched the interaction between the two and nodded, then continued walking forward with a smile, as if nothing had happened.
He believed what Chu Jinglin said, and said this to see Chu Jinglin's attitude.
After all, Mr. Qinghe understood very well Chu Jinglin's attitude when he came with him today.
He sees through everything but doesn't speak it out loud. Once he has made a decision, he will not regret it.
What's more, among the emperor's children, only Chu Jinglin is pleasing to the eye, the others are simply useless.
Han Mingyuan knew what his teacher was thinking and looked at Chu Jinglin deeply.
Chu Jinglin hadn't realized yet that Mr. Qinghe had chosen him. He was now extremely annoyed by Han Xiao.
He never knew that Han Xiao could be so annoying sometimes.
"Third brother, you're too timid. Grandpa only asked you a few questions, why are you so scared?"
Chu Jinglin: “…”
"Also, you're going to do that thing in the future, so you can't be so timid. Besides, my grandfather is just an old man, what's there to be afraid of?"
Chu Jinglin: "Can you please stop talking?"
Han Xiao raised his eyebrows: "Hey, I see you are not too nervous. I want you to relax a little."
"Thank you, it's not necessary anymore." After saying that, Chu Jinglin took two steps forward and tried to distance himself from Han Xiao.
"Hey, Third Brother, wait for me. I have a secret you want to hear?" Han Xiao caught up with him in two or three steps and put his arm on Chu Jinglin's shoulder.
The two men are about the same height, but Chu Jinglin is a little thinner, so Han Xiao's arm around Chu Jinglin's shoulders fits perfectly.
"Third brother, do you know why grandpa asked you this just now?"
Han Xiao whispered to Chu Jinglin.
Chu Jinglin looked over in confusion: "What?"
Han Xiao smiled mysteriously and whispered something in Chu Jinglin's ear.
Chu Jinglin didn't react until Han Xiao had walked away. What did Han Xiao just say?
He looked at Han Xiao's back in disbelief and shouted, "Han Xiao, what did you just say? Say it again!"
Han Xiao heard Chu Jinglin's shout, smiled and continued to move forward. They had already fallen far behind.
After Chu Jinglin caught up, he could only ask with his eyes because he was closer to Mr. Qinghe.
"That's what Third Brother meant. You should visit my grandfather more often in the future."
Chu Jinglin's body shook, emotions surging in his eyes. He wanted to say something but Han Xiao made a gesture to silence him.
Then he pointed to Mr. Qinghe who was talking to Lu Ming in front.
Chu Jinglin took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart and followed again.
