Li Yi could not fix the tracks for the time being. He bought a lot of iron to make tracks. Many people did not even have kitchen knives at home.
When the tracks were needed, it meant that the load-bearing things had to be heavy.
He did not take out the steam train. How heavy did things need to be on the tracks?
Wooden tracks were fine. The Tang dynasty did not lack wood or cement.
The tracks in the mining area needed to be higher than the ground, so the wheels had to be on them.
The tracks on the road were grooves made of cement. The horses would run along the grooves faster than the normal road.
At this time, four-wheeled carriages were not suitable. It was easy to hit the wheels. Two-wheeled carriages could run as long as the tracks were a little wider.
It was like the ruts on the dirt road. The carriages behind followed the ruts of the carriages in front to save energy.
The ruts were easy to change due to rain, but the grooves did not change.
A groove was left on the side for sand and stones to go in. It could be cleaned or flushed with water. The sand would flow down the groove.
Every section of the road, a relatively flat place, such as a fork in the road. This way, the carriages could go up and enter other roads.
There was such a road in the Qin dynasty. Later, no one had the money to fix it, so it was abandoned.
The Great Wall of China had been fixed by each generation, but it had never surpassed the Qin dynasty. The Qin dynasty was really serious about civil engineering.
Li Yi told Li Longji about these things.
"Fixing the cement takes too long. We need to dig a hole for the wood. The wood needs to be soaked in tung oil. With the tung oil, we can build ships."
Li Longji understood. Good idea. The road from Chang'an to Luoyang was fixed.
Wasn't this the same track? It was convenient for transportation.
"Use cement to fix it. We need to build a new cement factory. The mines in Lantian County are enough to support our cement production. Stay away from the houses. The factory has a lot of smoke and dust."
Li Yi's own Zhuangzi could not support such a large amount of cement, so he could only give it out.
"The 16 guards will protect the secret of cement production. The 16 guards are not allowed to go in and get in touch with the secret. Your Zhuangzi bought another piece of land. I will arrange another 1,000 households for you. "
Li Longji was not at ease with other people. Li Yi kept a lot of secrets and felt that he was not safe enough. He could not let an emperor take care of it himself, right?
In the end, it would still end up in someone else's hands. Why not let Brother Yi take it?
"Third Brother, I've made a new type of boat. There's a big one and a small one. The big one isn't big, but it's a medium one. Come to Zhuangzi the day after tomorrow when the Imperial Examinations list is announced. "
Li Yi sent out an invitation. The boat he built was not suitable for drifting on the Yangtze River or the Yellow River.
It was not bad in the Jiangnan water towns, but with the Jiangnan water towns' boat skills, they did not want this kind of boat.
Where there was little water, boats used oars. Where the water was wide and shallow, boats used poles. Where the water was complicated, people used oars.
Where oars could be used, people could use oars and poles, but they didn't use them.
The boat that Li Yi took out did not require any advanced skills. They could just board it and play around. They were guaranteed to know how to use it.
"Okay, I'll take the child for a check-up." Li Longji agreed. He also wanted to take a look.
As time passed, his heart felt empty.
The palace maids and eunuchs lowered their heads to eat. They did not record what the Emperor said, so there was no daily record.
"Dongzhu, Dongzhu, where are you? I finished the exam, I got everything. "Li Yi and Li Longji were eating and chatting. Someone shouted.
"Arrange it." Li Yi ordered. Qing Song put down his chopsticks and went out.
"Looking at them, they will all be out before evening." Li Yi knew the situation.
When Bi Goo tested him on the first scripture, he knew what this year's Imperial Examinations was. It was Li Ji, Shen Yi.
This was especially easy to remember. It was just like when he tested 'The mountain is not high …'.
If he memorized it well, he would be able to recite it after many years.
The first scripture was divided into sections. Each section was taken once. Usually, it was divided into five sections. As long as all of them were correct, it would be stable.
As for the last section, there would be no problem as long as one did not use the four rhymes wrong.
"Dongzhu, I got everything. Don't crowd around me. Okay, I'll tell you the questions. The questions for the Imperial Examinations are …"
The student who ran out first was stopped and asked about the questions.
There were many beautiful women around. They were responsible for getting the questions for the Imperial Examinations. They would then return to Pyong Kang Square to answer the questions for 'everyone'.
After being surrounded by the beautiful women, the student who ran out quickly confessed.
Qing Song was squeezed out of the crowd. He gritted his teeth and wondered if this student had a wife. If he did, he was prepared to …
"Brother Yi, have you ever thought about the glory of being first in the Imperial Examinations?" Li Longji suddenly felt sorry for his brother Yi.
Brother Yi's Imperial Examinations were guaranteed to be … special.
Brother Yi's strategy was the national strategy.
"No." Li Yi shook his head, "Once you become an official, you will be in. The Jianghu is deep, it's better to be outside."
He then continued, "Virtue is like water. Water is good for all living things and does not compete. It is evil to all. Therefore, it is close to the Dao … The man does not compete. Therefore, no one can compete with him. "
Li Longji smiled, "Brother Yi, whether you take the Imperial Examinations or not, no one can compete with you."
"Yes, so I still want to be the master of my manor. I want to jump out of the three realms and not be in the five elements." Li Yi raised his cup.
Li Longji drank with Li Yi, "Brother Yi, you have worked hard for the Tang dynasty."
"Princess Jinxian, if you can persuade her, please do. Don't always take medicine. It's not good for your health. If you really want to take pills, I have hawthorn pills and honey pills here. They are delicious. "
Li Yi suddenly mentioned Princess Jinxian. This princess practiced Daoism and went on the wrong path. She insisted on taking medicine.
When he heard Li Yi mention Princess Jinxian, Li Longji felt uncomfortable.
His favorite sister was always thinking about printing books.
"Princess Jinxian took some medicine for … the opposite of your sister-in-law," Li Longji said helplessly.
Li Yi understood. So the princess also knew that it was not good to eat heavy metal. She was just trying to avoid pregnancy.
Therefore, he turned around and returned to the ambulance.
"I have medicine here. Take 22 pills a month. After taking it, you won't have to do anything. It can also adjust a woman's menstrual cycle."
Li Yi gave Li Longji a big bag. This thing was cheap.
"Three years. It can be stored for three years. After three years … it can still be used. I just don't know when it will lose its effect."
Li Yi added.
Li Longji looked at Li Yi in surprise. You have this thing too? It won't be poisoned?
Li Yi explained the situation, "Princess Jinxian represents the royal family. She likes to print books for others. Only when she is alive can her value be reflected."
Li Yi told the truth. Princess Jinxian was now printing Taoist books. After that, Buddhism became more sensible. Li Longji relaxed again.
From then on, Princess Jinxian printed Buddhist books.
Since she could print like this and said that she wanted to make a full set of copper plate printing, then she could naturally print other books.
To educate the people, it couldn't be the Li Family Zhuangzi who did it. It would cost a lot of money.
"Okay, I want to print books. Princess Jinxian's thoughts are actually more simple." Li Longji always felt that his sister was not bad.
The two of them continued to eat and drink. One after another, students of the Li Family Zhuangzi ran out. They had finished 'copying' and were unwilling to eat inside.
Heaven on Earth started to deliver food. They opened the food boxes and found a place to squat and eat. They didn't use the car or the table.
They gathered together and chatted about current affairs. Some even argued over a word.
