However, under the burning fire, the cement did not move at all.
Not only was the cement not ignited, but its color did not change at all.
Looking at the cement, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
Very good, it seems that this cement is not afraid of burning, it is true.
When Li Shanchang and his group saw this, they were furious to death.
What on earth is this cement that can’t even be harmed by flames?
Li Shanchang was very angry.
But looking at the big water tank, Li Shanchang smiled again.
What is the use of light that can withstand the burning of fire?
There are two more levels waiting for you!
Seeing that burning it with fire was useless, the strong man also removed the torch.
Soon, another big man came forward holding a water tank.
The big man picked up the cement and threw it directly into the water tank.
Soon, the cement sank to the bottom of the water tank.
One minute has passed, two minutes have passed...
A stick of incense has passed.
This cement did not deform at all in the water tank.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the big man also picked up the piece of cement from the water tank.
The cement is almost unchanged from when it was first put in.
There are no other changes except that the surface is wet with water and looks a little darker.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the cement and smiled with satisfaction.
Very good, even if it is not afraid of fire and water, Zhu Yuanzhang would like to give this cement a thumbs up.
At least if we build houses with cement in the future, we won’t have to worry about fire!
When Li Shanchang saw this, he felt a little panicked.
Why is this Hu Changan not talking big words?
How come his piece of cement remained unscathed no matter whether it was burned by fire or flooded?
But looking at the last big man, Li Shanchang smiled again.
No matter what, there is absolutely no way Hu Changan can pass this last hurdle!
Seeing that the first two people had already tried it, the last strong man also picked up the hammer.
However, just as the last strong man was about to smash the hammer against the cement on the ground, Xue Xiang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry on the side, raised objections.
Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang, Xue Xiang's brows knitted together tightly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to test the cement in this way!"
"This hammer is a war hammer used on the battlefield."
"This kind of war hammer weighs at least fifty or sixty pounds."
"With such a hammer blow, I'm afraid even the solid green bricks will be easily smashed."
"It's really inappropriate to experiment with this kind of hammer!"
However, when Li Shanchang heard this, he jumped out: "Why, this cement is not afraid of being hit by a hammer, but Mr. Hu just said it himself."
"Since Mr. Hu has already said that this cement is not afraid of being hit by a hammer, what's wrong with me using this war hammer to experiment?"
Xue Xiang couldn't help but frowned when he heard this.
This statement is clearly a covert exchange of concepts.
The hammer that most people talk about is probably an ordinary small hammer.
Ordinary masonry is considered qualified as long as it can withstand the beating of a small hammer.
How come Li Shanchang was so ignorant of martial ethics that he went straight to the big hammer?
If you hit it with this kind of hammer, no matter how strong the material is, it will be smashed!
Xue Xiang's eyes immediately turned to Hu Changan.
As the person responsible for the invention of cement, Hu Changan must know the strength of this cement very well.
This kind of thing must not be done randomly!
Hu Changan is a junior whom Xue Xiang admires very much. Xue Xiang naturally does not want Hu Changan to make a fool of himself in front of everyone.
More importantly, Xue Xiang has already taken a fancy to the value of this cement.
Even if the strength of cement is slightly worse than that of blue bricks, cement is still a good building material.
Just the fact that it is not afraid of fire is enough to make the majority of construction craftsmen flock to it.
You must know that the losses caused by fires in Yingtian City every year are countless!
Ancient houses were basically built of wood and were naturally not fireproof.
What's more important is that the ancient buildings are very close together.
Often when a house catches fire, neighbors are quickly affected.
A small fire may turn into a large fire in an instant.
Therefore, finding fire-resistant building materials has become a top priority.
Although blue bricks can also be fireproof, the cost of blue bricks is too high after all, and only wealthy people can afford them.
As for Hu Changan's cement, the construction cost is definitely not as high as that of blue bricks.
At least this cement can be made in just one day.
Even small green bricks take at least 20 days to make.
If it were a large piece of blue brick as large as Hu Changan's cement, it would take even longer.
So this cement is definitely a magical material that can change the status quo of the construction industry.
Xue Xiang does not want cement to leave a bad impression in the minds of the public just because of this experiment.
He will also promote cement in the future!
However, when Hu Changan heard this, he was neither humble nor arrogant.
Looking at Li Shanchang, Hu Changan said calmly: "In that case, if you want to try it, Mr. Han, go ahead and try it."
"Anyway, I have absolute confidence in my cement."
When Xue Xiang heard this, he immediately took a breath of cold air.
This Hu Changan is really young and energetic.
How can this cement withstand such a heavy war hammer?
Everyone in the hall also shook their heads secretly.
This Hu Changan is too arrogant.
How can this little piece of cement withstand the beating of a war hammer?
It seems that Hu Changan will most likely be embarrassed in front of His Majesty!
But since Hu Changan himself had agreed, the other ministers naturally had no position to speak.
They could only watch helplessly as the hammer in the hand of the last strong man hit the cement on the ground.
With this blow, the strong man used all his strength.
The muscles in the strong man's arms were tense.
Even the strong man's head had veins popping out.
Even in the Li Mansion, this strong man is also a famous strongman.
Coupled with the blessing of this heavy war hammer, the strong man didn't think he could break this mere piece of cement.
The strong man seemed to be able to predict the way the cement would splash everywhere.
However, what the strong man expected did not happen.
I saw that this hammer only left a shallow white pit on the surface of the cement.
Cement, intact!
At this time, everyone was so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
Everyone never expected that this humble cement could withstand such a thunderous blow?
This is simply incredible!
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was on top of the throne, tightly grasped the armrest of the chair.
This is definitely a great invention across the century!
The strength of this cement is really great!
Even though Zhu Yuanzhang had been fighting in the north and south for so many years, he had never seen anything harder than cement.
Looking at the cement on the ground, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel excited.
