Chapter 531 Master Architect
The craftsman in charge was also a workaholic. When he saw Zheng Sisi, he couldn't wait to ask, "Princess, there are two questions I can't figure out. I would like to ask you to answer them."
Zheng Sisi looked around and said, "Okay, but I want to go upstairs first. You can ask directly if you have any questions." It just so happened that the questions she needed to ask also required seeing the site, so the head craftsman led the way in front and went into a room by the way.
Zheng Laosi and Zheng Ershao, who were following behind, were amazed at the house. Zheng Laosi had been traveling and had seen buildings in various places, including gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, cave houses in the north, stilt houses in southern Xinjiang, and stone houses along the coast...
I have never seen such a building before me. It is not only unique in design, but also well-planned, which is completely different from the architectural style of other streets. However, it is precisely because of this difference that these houses can make better use of space, which makes people feel very novel.
Zheng Laoer was thinking that if this kind of sturdy house building was brought to the northern region, it would be a blessing for the people in the north.
With a house like this, we no longer have to endure the severe cold in winter. Perhaps I should discuss this with my father and try to get the architectural drawings from my cousin...
The group shuttled between several buildings. The craftsmen and masters raised various questions, and Zheng Sisi patiently answered and gave guidance, helping them solve many construction-related confusions.
This not only gave them a deeper understanding of modern architecture, but also significantly improved their construction technology level.
Zheng Sisi pondered to herself that through this experience, she, a novice in construction who only bought some materials with her grandfather when building her own house and made some suggestions on the structure of the house, has now become a master architect in the eyes of everyone just by searching for information. It is really hilarious.
As a participant, Sheng Zhen knew a thing or two about architecture, but the other noblemen and ladies were just outsiders watching the fun. Only Zheng Lao Si and Zheng Er Shao listened carefully to Zheng Sisi's explanation.
After hearing this, Zheng Laosi seemed to have opened a door to a whole new world, and a strong desire surged in his heart. He couldn't help but wonder if it would be possible to build such houses all over the country if he could master this knowledge?
At this time, Zheng Sisi didn't know that it was this visit that would give birth to a great king of architecture in the future. Of course, this is all a story for later.
It was already noon when they walked out of the construction site. Several craftsmen were reluctant to leave Zheng Sisi because they still had many questions to ask the princess.
Zheng Sisi smiled and said to Magistrate Cao and the craftsmen who were seeing them off, "Everyone, it's already noon. Why don't you all go to 'Food Brings Fortune' for lunch together? I will be the host."
When everyone heard this, the craftsmen were ecstatic. They finally had another chance to ask the princess questions.
County Magistrate Cao and others were also happy. After all, the business of "Food Brings Fortune" was extremely hot. Even if you were the head of a county, it would be difficult to get a seat if you didn't make a reservation in advance. Now that you can go with the Third Prince and the Princess, it is undoubtedly a rare opportunity to taste delicious food.
The group soon arrived at the door of "Food Brings Fortune". Just as Zheng Sisi expected, the place was already full of people, and there were still many people waiting in line.
Fortunately, Zheng Sisi asked the guards to reserve a seat in advance, otherwise she would have to wait like last time.
Shopkeeper Gao was very happy to see all the bosses coming together, and he warmly welcomed everyone with his people. Zheng Sisi was now like a god in Shopkeeper Gao's mind, higher than the third prince.
In particular, he heard that the construction of the outer city was based on the ideas and drawings provided by Zheng Sisi, and he also went to the site to see it. Only God could have such wisdom and talent to design such a building.
After having a hearty meal in the restaurant and seeing off Magistrate Cao and the craftsmen, Zheng Sisi saw that there were more small vendors on the street. The gadgets inside were quite interesting. She suggested going shopping, which was unanimously agreed by everyone, especially the young sisters who were very happy.
They have known each other for such a long time, but have never really gone shopping together. It is always Zheng Sisi who leads everyone in planting crops and doing business, so they really have no free time.
They walked slowly along the street, admiring the surrounding scenery. The buildings in the county town were full of quaint atmosphere.
The streets are lined with all kinds of stalls, selling snacks, handicrafts, daily necessities, etc. The variety of goods is dazzling.
Especially the place where there are snacks, the aroma wafts out, and it is the stall that Zhong Ruiyu and Zheng Zhiyuan like to visit the most.
