"You have grown up, and I know that you are a doctor, and there is no difference between men and women, but if your mouth grows on other people's faces, you are prone to nonsense. Sometimes you should keep a proper distance." Lu Huaiyuan said earnestly.

"Oh." Lu Xiaoyun didn't think so much, so he agreed perfunctorily to Lu Huaiyuan.

Lu Xiaoyun was thinking about another thing.

"Brother, do you think I would have surrounded that wasteland?"

"Environment? Why? You don't need to be surrounded by planting trees, right?"

“I want it.”

Lu Xiaoyun looked serious.

"What are you planning to do when buying plaster?"

"Make a material that can be used to build a house, which is the mud that sticks two bricks together. Well, it can be said to be mud."

After all, it is called cement.

Lu Huaiyuan had never heard of such mud, so he asked curiously: "What else do you need to use in addition to gypsum?"

"There are also iron slag and quicklime, and you have to dig a kiln to calcinate it afterwards."

"So troublesome?"

"It's indeed a little troublesome, but if it is done, it will definitely surprise my elder brother. This is what my teacher told me, and he said that the mud made in this way is very hard and is especially suitable for military defense."

"really?"

"My teacher said that. The specific thing depends on whether we can successfully do it."

Lu Xiaoyun was just trying, and he couldn't guarantee that he would succeed. After all, it was difficult to calcinate at high temperatures. I hope her father can find powerful talents.

"Did you think of moving to the wasteland you bought at that time?"

"No."

Lu Huaiyuan saw that Lu Xiaoyun seemed to have something hidden without saying anything, so he didn't ask any further questions.

...

Three days later, Lu Yuanming finally returned from Fengyang Pass and brought good news to Lu Xiaoyun.

"Dad has found all the people you want, but it will take some time to get to the northwest. Wait a little longer. By the way, your second uncle Yang agreed and is willing to lend them, but he also has the conditions to give the weapons forged at that time to Fengyang Pass first."

"Yes, Dad, did you agree?"

"Yeah, I agreed."

If Yang Hong wanted nothing, Lu Xiaoyun would be worried.

Yang Hong is now being secretly targeted by the King of Chu. No matter whether it is equipment or food, Fengyang Pass cannot get the best.

Yang Hong definitely hopes that the army he leads is equipped with better equipment.

"When we make cement, we will start preparing for mining. Dad, have you figured out any way to make the capital city ignore our place?"

"Don't worry, the more people want to be emperor, the less the King of Chu will be. What's more, didn't your palace servants bring the news back to the capital? Now the King of Chu is searching for the third prince. Compared to us, the existence of the third prince poses a greater threat to the King of Chu."

Lu Xiaoyun thought about it and told Lu Yuanming about Xiaolian coming to the northwest.

Lu Yuanming: “…”

He has never liked to speculate on others with the greatest malicious intention, but Lu Huaixue can really make people think of her more viciously.

"Lu Huaixue is not having a good life in Beijing now, and she has no time to take care of our side. She can't do anything in a short time. What is more important now is to make ourselves stronger. Although Dad does not lead troops now, at least half of the northern army is obeying Dad's orders."

"Yes." Lu Xiaoyun nodded. She was not good at leading troops to fight and did not ask too much questions.

Only then did Lu Huaiyuan realize that the wasteland that Lu Xiaoyun bought included iron ore and saltpeter.

Except for him, no one else in the Lu family knew about it.

In the following time, Lu Xiaoyun ran to the wasteland every day, watching the saplings grow out.

I don’t know if she had used superpowers to urge these saplings to grow, but their growth was very gratifying. In just half a month, it was already green.

Moreover, the growth rate of these saplings is also amazing.

Now, they are as tall as Lu Xiaoyun.

Lu Bao and the others patrol responsibly every day, carefully caring for these saplings.

At the same time, the person Lu Yuanming was looking for also came to the deserted village.

These people have all received favor from Lu Yuanming, so Lu Yuanming came to them and they came to the northwest without saying a word.

The person in charge of calcining is called Dong Cheng, and it is very good at firing ceramics.

Although the work he is going to do now has nothing to do with ceramics, he is still very serious. After knowing Lu Xiaoyun’s request, he chose a place in the back mountain to dig a kiln.

Lu Xiaoyun gave Dong Cheng full responsibility for this matter and asked the villagers to help.

The village chief is no longer surprised that Lu Xiaoyun likes to mess with it, and the villagers don’t talk much. Anyway, they make money and they are very motivated.

After several tests from Dong Cheng, he finally dug the kiln head and Lu Xiaoyun began to fire cement.

It was the first time Lu Xiaoyun did this. He failed many times before he adjusted the proportion and burned the first part of cement. However, the effect of using was a bit far from Lu Xiaoyun's expectation.

She revised the proportion again, and it was already busy with farming.

The potatoes that Lu Xiaoyun tried to grow were well harvested under the careful management of the couple Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang.

After they tasted potatoes, they found that the potatoes were full and delicious, so they confiscated the smiles on Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang's faces.

However, Lu Yuanming and Lu Huaiyuan rarely stay at home. Even when it is the busy farming time, they go out all day long, and the farm work at home falls on Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang, and they have no complaints about this.

A Tian did not get involved in Lu Xiaoyun's affairs, so he stopped studying these days and took Lu Huaizhi and the others to help collect potatoes.

Potatoes and soybeans are interplanted. When harvesting potatoes, you should be careful not to damage the bean seedlings. Therefore, Lu Dalang refused to hire someone and took his wife and children to work hard.

He and Song Qiuning also went to the field. They were both young ladies who had been pampering since childhood. Now they are in trouble, they are calm and learn if they don’t understand. They are very good at adapting.

"With this potato, you won't have to go hungry anymore. Yunyun said that you can plant another batch of potatoes. Many people in the village have already planned to buy potatoes and are planning to try planting them." Lu Dalang looked up and wiped his sweat. Looking at the round potatoes on the ground, his eyes were filled with joy of harvest.

"But after autumn begins, the weather starts to get colder. Can potatoes survive?" Zhao said, "If we don't grow it, will we blame us?"

"Hahaha, if it were before, I would be as suspicious as you. But now I believe in Yunyun very much. She said yes, that's sure, and you don't have to worry."

After a pause, Lu Dalang said to He with envy: "The third brother and sister will give birth. A daughter is even better than our two sons."

Zhao's "pop" a piece of mud hit him, "Shut your mouth and don't jump out of everything."

What if the third brother and sister think they are laughing at her for not having a son? Isn’t this causing trouble for others? Zhao glared at Lu Dalang fiercely.
