Mohist Tang

Night is falling.

The entire Chang’an City rainbow lights are always bright! The lights are brilliant.

Chang’an City has a curfew, but after all, there are many wealthy households. Every night in the Fang Market, every household lights up their lights.

On the south city gate, two guards are standing on the Chang’an City south gate tower. Looking around, it looks like a misty brilliance. There is no scenery. This is the city gate guard every night The only fun, once it is later, there will only be a long night of suffering.

“What’s that?” Suddenly a guard said in shock, pointing behind him.

The other guard suddenly turned around and moved towards Chengnan Official Road. On the dark Chengnan Official Road, a torch was particularly dazzling.

Then the torch is lit one after another, and the light is like a long dragon-like, which lasts endlessly, as long as several li.

The two guards were suddenly shocked, as if they were facing an enemy, here is Chang’an City. If there is a setback, they will definitely not be able to eat.

“Don’t panic, this is that Mohist Village is rushing to build the road overnight, and has already reported to the official.” A voice sounded behind the two.

“General!” The two guards suddenly bowed and saluted when they saw the visitor.

This person is officially the new guardian of the southern city gate. He didn’t feel embarrassed at the request of Mohist Village, but readily agreed. You must know that the guardian of the southern city gate is still on the Great Wall. Eating sand, he doesn’t want to take the lesson of taking office again.

Besides, the road construction of Mohist Village is outside Chang’an City, and in order to avoid suspicion, it will not be close to Chang’an City.

“Mohist Village is building the road? Hasn’t the road to the south city gate been completed?” The two often take turns at the south city gate, so they naturally know the progress of the road in Mohist Village.

The entire Chengnan Guandao road has already been repaired smoothly, and it can be said to be the top one. How can such a road be repaired?

The guard of the southern city gate said with a bitter smile: “Who knows, it may also be checked by Ministry of Works officials. Some of them need to be corrected! After all, it is almost ready for Ministry of Works acceptance. On the date, it is normal for Mohist Village to rush to work overnight.”

The two guards were also suddenly nodded. Looking at the long lights in the distance, they not only secretly sighed, but ordinary people lighting the lights is already very luxurious. And Mohist Village turned out to be a continuous torch several li, dedicated to road construction, it is indeed the richest village in the south of the city.

The torch vibrates and shines on the faces of Xu Jie and Mo Dun, showing a different kind of red light.

“Young Master, we really want to do this!” Xu Jie couldn’t help but trembled.

Mo Dun solemnly nodded and said: “Lets start!”

With Mo Duns order, all four-wheeled Carriage came out of the darkness, and soon , A group of Mohist Family Son brothers wrote out the blue bricks from the car, and laid them on the road one by one.

Paving the road with blue bricks, if anyone learns of this move in Mohist Village, it will definitely turn pale with fright.

Now the blue brick is a luxury, only rich and wealthy can afford to use it. The ordinary persons house is mostly a thatched house built with mud embryos on the bottom of the blue brick, and a new house in Mohist Village. It is all built with bricks and tiles, which has long envied surrounding villages.

When the shortcomings of the four-wheeled Carriage were exposed, Mo Dun knew that if he wanted to solve it, he had to imitate the hardened pavement of later generations.

The brick road is the lowest level of hardened pavement in later generations, but it is shocking in Great Tang. If Mo Dun paved the road during the day, it would surely cause a lot of people to block it, so Mo Dun could only act overnight. Create established facts.

When the world learns the benefits of brick roads, everything is a foregone conclusion.

“The blue bricks are ready!” Mo Dun asked.

Xu Jie took a deep breath and said: “reporting to Young Master, the bricks of more than a dozen kilns around Chang’an City have all been wrapped up, and finally enough for Young Master “

Fortunately, there are many wealthy households in Chang’an City, many of them are village kilns, and Xu Jie has placed huge orders for more than 20 days, otherwise Xu Jie would not gather together in a short time. Many bricks come.

“Hejiazhuang is also in it!” In the light of the fire, Mo Dun’s mouth showed a slight curve.

Xu Jie nodded said: “According to Young Master’s order, all the bricks in Hejiazhuang have been bought.”

Mo Dun instructed: “Then let them come overnight Come on!”

When Hejiazhuang all dispatched to pull all the blue bricks of the nail device to Chengnan Official Road, they were suddenly stunned.

“You are paving the road with blue bricks!” He Zhuangzhu was shaking with anger!

Mo Dun nodded: “Why not?”

“It’s simply a reckless waste of natural resources!” He said in distress.

In his in mind, blue bricks are used to build houses and build city walls. Even if Hejiazhuang has burned bricks for many years, there are only roads paved by broken bricks in the village. I thought of paving roads with intact bricks.

Mo Dun coldly snorted and said: “Why not use bricks to build roads? Isn’t Vermilion Bird Street paving bricks? How can Mohist Village toss on this official road every year? “

The pavement of Vermilion Bird Street on the central axis is paved with bricks. There are drainage ditches and street trees on both sides of the road. When Mo Dun saw Vermilion Bird Street, he made up his mind to build a brick road in Mohist Village. .

It’s just that Mohist Village was just starting at the time, and Mo Dun could only settle down temporarily.

When the villages in the south of the city forced the Mohist Village to force the palace, Mo Dun seized the opportunity to take advantage of the trend and gave himself an excuse to build a road.

“You deliberately took over the task of repairing the official road!” He Zhuangzhu said bitterly.

He then wanted to understand why Mo Dun had promised to be so happy at the time, and he issued a military order to continue the contract in the future.

People are afraid of Mo Dun’s remorse, so it seems that Mohist Family Son is afraid of them remorse.

He used to proudly show off that his village finally dumped the Chengnan Official Road, but he did not expect to hit the plot against Mohist Village.

Mo Dun slightly smiled under the fire. , Speaks for itself.

Xu Jie coldly snorted and said: “The owner of He Zhuang is here to sell bricks today. As for how we use it, it is our own business. If Hejiazhuang does not sell, some of Chang’an City is a kiln. The factory is willing to sell bricks to Mohist Village, you know, my Mohist Village can offer a high price!”

The owner of He is gloomy and uncertain, and they have more than a dozen villages forced the palace to Mohist Village, but they won Mohist Village. Not only was there no loss, but the annual corvee in the future would also be easily resolved.

In a group of villages, other villages are wicked people. He is the only one who makes a profit by buying bricks in Hejiazhuang. No matter how you look at it, he wants to be in harmony with Mohist Village. Offended other villages to death.

“Why don’t you sell it!” The owner of He couldn’t think about 3 breaths time and immediately decided.

With the super large order of Mohist Village, Hejiazhuang knew it was poisonous, and had to swallow it. After all, with so many people in Hejiazhuang, they depend on selling bricks for a living. If they lose so much Its not unreasonable to take yourself as the owner of the order.

Mo Dun and Xu Jie looked at each other and smiled. After the thorn head of Hejiazhuang was dealt with, the villages in the south of the city would be a pile of scattered sand, which would no longer pose the slightest threat to Mohist Village.
