In the afternoon, when everyone had just eaten, the people who transported the masonry came over, not too many, only eight carts. In the afternoon, another batch of masonry came. What Shen Han and the others want to do is to move these bricks and stones from the back garden to the courtyard of the main house. This can only be moved slowly by people, which is really tiring. Fortunately, there are nearly 30 people here, which can’t carry much. trip.
In the courtyard of the main house, the bricks and stones were all carried here. Shen Han looked at the bricks and asked Anzi, "Brother Anzi, I am afraid that there is not enough bricks and stones. How many have you ordered?"
"There will be two batches of masonry delivered by the meeting, and each batch is eight cars. After the move is completed, today's business is over, and tomorrow there will be two other masonry shipments with the same amount. For the time being, there will be so much. If it is not enough, then we can buy it later. It doesn't matter."
Shen Han said: "If there are so many, as you said, it would be enough. However, lime and clay and sand rice slurry are needed to pave the masonry."
An Zi smiled and patted Shen Han on the shoulder, and said, "All these things will be shipped tomorrow. You don't have to worry about this. Keep moving."
In the evening of the next day, Li You came here again. Now, all the preparations have been prepared, and only the excavation is left. When Li You arrived at Daozhengfang, Shen Han had already taken some people to excavate. The floor in the living room of the main house had been opened with a big hole, and Anzi and the others had also laid the floor in the living room.
Li You was accompanied by Shen Han to check the entrance of the cave. Since he didn't dig too deep, he could still see the flames of the tunnel slanting down. It seemed that everything was going well.
After taking a rough look, Li You brought Shen Han and An Zi to the courtyard. There were some things that he needed to explain before he was relieved.
"Anzi, I will ask Hong'er to bring a few maids over tomorrow and let them take care of this place. You can just dig as much as you can, but you must remember not to make a loud noise. Shen Han, you are also relatively skilled. , My requirements are not high, I just ask that the tunnels you excavate must not be displaced."
Shen Han bowed and said: "Young Master is relieved, the soil near the city wall is relatively hard. This is the benchmark. It is not difficult to dig a straight line."
But An Zi said, "Young Master, why let Hong'er and the others come over? It's completely achievable for us to guard this place."
Li You raised his hand and said: "There must be a woman here. One can take care of this place, and the other can help you cook and cook for you. This is what I want to say. You must pay more attention to it. I'll leave it all to you here. Okay, I'm going back."
Li You did not stay here for a long time, and then left here with Gouzi. After sending Li You away, An Zi and Shen Han returned to the living room. At this time, a lot of soil was dug out, and two baskets were installed. You can pour it into the pond. In terms of progress, it's quite fast. But tunnels need to be reinforced, and brick and stone reinforcement is the most time-consuming. If they really excavate to the road outside the square, they will not dare to do it so fast. They need to excavate a little bit and reinforce a little bit, and there must be no collapse. The risk of collapse is inside.
In the wee hours of the morning, Anzi also got off the tunnel. This was the first time he did this kind of work. The entrance of the sloping tunnel has been reinforced with wooden boards. Tomorrow, bricks and stones will be laid to reinforce the entrance. It is necessary to excavate a shaft next to the tunnel for excavation and air flow, so that the hole can be reinforced while digging. In fact, as long as the reinforcement of the hole is completed, the rest will be relatively easy. Now the depth of the sloping hole has been dug to more than two feet, as long as it is down to three feet, it can be dug flat.
An Zi and the others stopped working until almost noon the next day. The tunnel was now flat dug, and all the places where it was opened had been widened. What we have to do now is the reinforcement of the masonry and the construction of the stairs, which will take three to four days to complete. If they want to continue to excavate, they can only wait for the completion of the shaft before they can truly start uninterrupted excavation and reinforcement.
The unearthed shaft was already being excavated early this morning. Shen Han led the people to do it. The shaft was set at the root of the east wall of the back house, close to the excavated tunnel. As long as the excavation reached a depth of three feet, They can dig to the north to connect to the tunnel that has been excavated. Once this is opened up, they can continue to dig. Judging from the current state of preparation, one day will do.
There is really no difficulty in digging a three-foot-deep shaft. At noon, Shen Han has already led people to dig it to a depth of one-foot. Even if it is slower, it will definitely be completed in the evening.
Hong'er and a few maids had already prepared meals for everyone. When Anzi came out, he saw Hong'er and the others. Unexpectedly, they had already arrived.
Just as An Zi was sitting on the masonry to eat, Hong'er came over and said to him, "Brother An Zi, there are people watching us here. Brother Shen, they are not allowed to show up."
An Zi raised his head and looked at Hong'er. He then asked, "Hong'er, are you sure you didn't look away?"
"Brother Anzi, I won’t talk nonsense. When we came here early this morning, two groups of people followed us in Dongshi. I also specially asked Xiaowan to go outside the city. She came back and said that someone was indeed following her. According to this situation, once Big Brother Shen and the others go out, they will surely be noticed by others and implicate the young master."
"Then have you sent someone back to tell Brother Dog? This is not a small matter, and nothing can go wrong."
"Brother Anzi, I have asked Ping'er to go back and tell her husband. She has just returned, and she also said that someone has been staring at her along the way."
Regarding An Zi’s concern, Hong'er naturally knew that this matter could never be detected by others. Like An Zi, she didn’t know why so many people came to watch at once, and there was not much they could do. Able to act carefully without leaking any flaws.
An Zi then looked around at the high walls, and then said to Hong'er: "It's not safe here. If they really want to know what we are doing here, they will definitely jump into the wall. Once they find out. But it's troublesome."
"Then what should we do?" ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
"Wait for Mr. or Brother Dog to come over and let me know. Send someone to the wall to watch, so that no one else can see it."
An Zi and Hong'er had just arranged this place, and Nangong Yi and Gouzi came over. This is not a trivial matter in Nangong Yi’s view, and it has to be handled properly, otherwise he wouldn’t be so anxious to come here. .
After asking about the actual situation here, Nangong Yi took a few people to the pond. He said: “You have transported a lot of construction materials here. It is inevitable that someone will come to inquire. Originally, Xu Kai hurriedly moved. I can’t touch the door anymore. If I don’t want to be discovered by others, I need to build a sacrificial ancestral hall here."
An Zi said, "Sir, it's okay to build sacrificial ancestral halls. It's just that we won't dare to move here."
"You dig the shaft to make it an excavated well. The entrance to the tunnel will be completed in two days. Take the time to dig out a large secret room underground, put a piece of masonry in the ground, and then look for a craftsman outside. Set up a sacrificial ancestral hall, they will come in and observe at that time, as long as the ancestral hall is completed, it will be safe here." (End of this chapter)
