Liu Xun left, angrily, but left behind a few craftsmen and a "level" that only the Ministry of Industry had, but people called it a level. Tao Ruolin felt like she had found a treasure.
The foundation is not laid casually, nor is the house built casually. If it is a large-scale building, there is an issue of accuracy.
The level left by Liu Xun can measure whether the ground is flat. Chu Qing looked at it for a long time and felt that it had no technical content. It was just three wooden signs, a bit like a thong, with jagged tops.
Like a child who got a new toy, Tao Ruolin took Bihua out for "mapping" while Chu Qing continued to study the drawings.
The first step is to copy the leveling line, that is, use the level left by Liu Xun to measure the flatness of the ground to ensure that the house will be built on the same horizontal line and at the same height.
The second step is to dig the trench foundation, which is to dig a pit, similar to a trench.
The third step is to build the foundation and lay the foundation.
The fourth step is to install the capstone.
The ancients paid attention to building a house so that one house would not collapse if it fell down. That is to say, the house could fall down, but the overall building structure would not be damaged. That’s why there were so many palaces in the palace that needed to be repaired. If you want the house to not collapse, you need pillars, which are load-bearing.
pillar.
Pillars are also made of wood and stone. Chu Qing thought of getting it right in one step and making it directly from stone. If it was made of wood, it would be easily affected by moisture.
The fifth step is to build the platform.
Ancient houses were built on a platform. The edge of the platform was called "Taiming". This part of the building was exposed on the ground. Therefore, when building a house, it was also a place where craftsmen put great care and attention.
.
Originally, this step could be omitted. Housing for the refugees did not require so much care, but Chu Qing felt it was necessary.
Because the craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry are the best at doing this kind of useless work, don't they like carving? Then just let the group of useless craftsmen left by Liu Xun do it, and there is no need to pay them anyway.
The sixth step is to place the rafters. The platform foundation has been laid and the pillars have been erected. Next, we have to spend time on the body and roof of the house. We need to install various pillars, rafters, sandalwood bars, etc. At this stage, the house
The structure is basically completed.
Then comes the final step, felt-backed tiles and laying tiles on the roof.
All the drawings have been drawn, twenty-three tenths of the materials have been purchased, and the masonry has been made. Everything that needs to be prepared in theory is ready.
After nightfall, Chu Qing gritted his teeth and asked Fu San to buy two carriages of drinks from the city. Everyone didn't drink much, just one or two sips per person. He didn't say any inspiring slogans, not a single word, respect yourself and the refugees.
, respect conscience.
…………
In the city, Li Mansion.
When Chu Qing was busy, Li Mansion was also busy, but Chu Qing was studying how to save people, while Li Mansion was studying how to kill people, which meant killing people.
Chu Qing was studying how to rescue the victims, and the Li family was studying how to kill Chu Qing.
In the main hall, Li Wenli sat at the main seat, beside Zhang Yun and Zhou Youwei, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites.
Zhang Yun is indeed a member of the King of Wu. If he was just a steward of the Li family, he would not be sitting on the right hand side. Zhou Youwei always sat on the left hand side under the main seat.
"You two adults, don't worry. After more than a month, even the status of deputy commander of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion will not be able to protect him."
Zhang Yun looked at Zhou Youwei and said with a smile: "As long as Lord Zhou handles things properly, Chu Qing will definitely die without a burial place."
Zhou Youwei took a sip of tea and nodded slightly: "I have a charter."
There is a skill in dealing with people. The routine of Chu Qing, who just finds trouble and then takes action after finding trouble, is very low-end. Looking at Li Wenli and the other three, it is very high-level.
Now that Li Wenli is "educating his son" at home, he has no way to go to court or go to the government office. Some other officials and aristocratic families are ready to take action. They are secretly wondering what the emperor means, and are also secretly thinking about whether they can give the left minister to the official department.
Seize the position.
Now that things have come to this, ordinary people would think about how to cleanse their son and the Li family. At least that would be what Chu Qing would do if he fell into this situation.
But Li Wenli was different. He knew very well that it was useless to whitewash his son. No matter how hard he washed his son, he would never be whitened. The only thing he could do was to "dark" Chu Qing.
As long as Chu Qing is "black", his son will naturally be "white", and the Li family will also be "white".
Zhou Youwei picked up a roster from the table and glanced at it: "With so many officials, this deputy commander of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion is extremely brave."
The officials on the roster are from various ministries and offices, and their surnames are also diverse, but they have one thing in common, that is, they have all been blackmailed, by Chu Qing and Chang Xian.
"Using power to oppress people, asking for money in the name of repairing houses." Li Wenli continued sadly: "After taking the money, I went to relieve the victims and showed generosity to others..."
Zhou Youwei laughed loudly: "Brother Li, what you said is wrong. This is not helping the victims. This is clearly an invitation to buy people's hearts. Asking for money from the ministers, go to the south of the city to buy people's hearts."
"Not bad, that's what I mean."
"Brother Li, please rest assured that in the next few days, I will look for these ministers and jointly impeach the deputy commander of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion."
Zhang Yun said: "In the past few days, the general will also spread rumors in the public to make Chu Qing's reputation even greater. I like the reputation of good people, so let him become the most good person in the capital."
Li Wenli took a sip of tea: "After the official was impeached, Shilin criticized him. Under the guise of the emperor, Chu Qing bought his reputation. By then, the emperor would definitely be furious, and Chu Qing would definitely die.
Burial place.”
Between a few words, several bad guys looked at each other and smiled, as if Chu Qing was dead now.
Li Wenli frowned and mentioned another matter, and looked at Zhang Yun: "Qianqiying, Hubu, Qiu Wanshan, and Dali Temple have frequently targeted my Li family. Could it be that the emperor ordered it, and Chang Chengyou has noticed something?"
"It shouldn't happen. If so, the deputy commander of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion will not surface, and this Chu Qing will not spend all day in the south of the city trying to win people's hearts."
"That's the case, then I'll feel at ease."
In a few understatements, a conspiracy against Chu Qing was woven.
In fact, the plan is very simple. Zhou Youwei is the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he will contact the ministers who have been extorted money from Chu Qing to file a complaint. Zhang Yun will go to the scholars to find a few familiar VIPs to give Chu Qing high praise.
, and finally a fatal blow, making the emperor think that Chu Qing was not buying the hearts of the royal family, but buying the hearts of himself. In addition, no one went to rescue the refugees, only Chu Qing went, and other ministers would definitely attack him in groups.
, the reason is very simple, it’s not that we are too bad, but that you are too good, so I have to mess with you.
Chu Qing has never thought of this. He is not afraid of you doing good deeds, but he is afraid that others can do the good deeds you do, but no one does it, only you do it!
But these three people didn't know that they thought they caught Chu Qing's pigtails, but in fact, as the house was built, Chu Qing's pigtails were all over his body waiting for them to catch them.
After the three of them casually chatted for a while about the current situation in the court, Li Wenli sent Zhou Youwei out of the Li Mansion.
After Zhou Youwei left, Li Wenli and Zhang Yun returned to the main hall.
"Master Li, Chu Qing must be the deputy commander of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion. The general feels that it is not safe enough."
"That's right." Li Wenli nodded, with a thoughtful look on his face: "Chu Wensheng, did you really go to Liao An?"
"Yes, His Highness King Wu's spies have confirmed it."
"Okay, then let Liao An's Fanman tribe rebel. If Chu Wensheng forces them to rebel, I will let the Chu family father and son die without a burial place!"
