Chapter 336: Then It Shall Be Called Carefree City
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The house designed by Bai Wutong looked very simple and square. There were no unnecessary edges, but it had a unique design.
Even the surrounding garden desigan was unique.
Cui Shize looked at the villa design that was very common in the modern world. When he saw the structure inside, he was even more surprised that the house could be arranged like this.
He felt that their house in Youjia village was already very comfortable.
He did not expect the house designed by Bai Wutong to be even more beyond his imagination.
There was something strange about it that he didn’t quite understand. ‘What is this?”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “This is a bathtub. You can lie in it and take a bath. In the future, when the water is boiled, you can directly take a bath. You can also pull out the stopper below and the water can automatically flow out.”
Cui Shize’s eyes lit up. Not only was he very interested in the house Bai Wutong designed, but he was also very interested in the drainage system.
also remembered something important. The entire city’s drainage system and sewage treatment system had to be designed well, lest someone had to transport all the sewage waste out.
As soon as she was inspired, she quickly took a pen and paper and drew the sewage treatment system on the basic layout map that Cui Shize had shown them.
This was the simplest kind. She had learned it in high school biology class.
The complicated sewage treatment system was also recorded in her RV space’s computer.
After Bai Wutong quickly flipped through it in her mind, she finally drew the most suitable plan.
There was petroleum in southern frontier. With petroleum, it was uncertain if the society would suddenly enter industrialization stage. If the sewage treatment system was too simple, it could still be redesigned in the future. It was better to do it properly when the city was still in its initial construction.
Perhaps after a hundred years, this place would also become a hundred-year-old city.
Cui Shize looked at it for a long time but did not understand what Bai Wutong was drawing. Under Bai Wutong’s explanation, he came to a realization and could not help but be very impressed. Bai Wutong had even carefully arranged the sewage circulation system of the entire city in such a short time.
It was impossible for Bai Wutong to admit that she had the secret of the RV space. She could only chuckle and accept Cui Shize’s compliment.
Cui Shize asked Bai Wutong in detail about all the problems with the sewage circulation system. After recording it in detail with a charcoal pen, he was too embarrassed to ask, “Not only is the design of Madam’s house beautiful and sturdy, but it can also prevent the tide from corroding it. I wonder if you can also use it as a reference when building the city.”
Bai Wutong’s house design used local raw materials. If it was modified, not only would it save money and time, but it would also be able to harmonize the aesthetics of the entire city.
Bai Wutong’s design was actually very Western style. Cui Shize could accept it, but not everyone else could.
Those who couldn’t appreciate it might say that their design was better than this.
smiled and said, “Sure. Our team still has a professional architect.
After discussing it, you can make the decision and report it to Lord You.”
If he looked for her for everything, she would definitely be busy with such a huge project.
Cui Shize was a little indecisive sometimes, but he was still very capable.
Although Cui Shize still had many questions, he knew that it was not convenient to disturb Bai Wutong for too long, so he asked the question he wanted to know the most. “Why aren’t there any windows here?”
He pointed to a place on the blueprint of Bai Wutong’s villa.
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “l think the screen window isn’t too good. It’s not soundproof and it doesn’t block the cold in winter. I want to replace it with another material.”
Cui Shize had never thought of this problem. After all, they had been like this for generations.
He asked in surprise, ‘What material can replace it?”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “l think transparent glass is good.”
“Glass???!!!”
Cui Shize was instantly stunned. Glass was very sturdy and transparent. One could even look at the beautiful scenery in the distance through the window, but glass was also very expensive.
Just like the Phoenix Tail Wine brewed by Bai Wutong, it could be sold for an astronomical price after being filled with a glass bottle.
How extravagant was it to use glass as a window? Even the once extravagant royal family of the Yan Kingdom had never imagined it.
Moreover, the house blueprint designed by Bai Wutong was marked with glass everywhere. How much money would it cost?
Seeing his shocked expression, Bai Wutong knew that she had frightened him. She smiled and said, “I’ve developed a way to improve the glass. When the time comes, the cost will be much lower.”
Even if it was lowered, Cui Shize could not imagine how much it could be lowered.
He asked carefully, “Then how much glass can 50 taels of silver buy?”
had previously made up her mind to design glass windows for her house even if the cost was too high. She estimated the size with her hands. “About this big. Including the monthly salary of the workers and the remaining costs, we should have enough for two such big windows. We can build a glass factory now. With the monthly salary, everyone won’t have to be afraid of not being able to afford a tael of money to install windows for their houses.” After all, in the eyes of the commoners, it was already a blessing to be able to use glass.
Moreover, it was so cheap. They had to get it even if they had to grit their teeth.
The Youjia villagers had money. As long as the other commoners worked hard, Sheng Huaixuan would definitely give them work.
After all, the southern frontier was vast and sparsely populated. What they lacked the most was still manpower.
Apart from the glass window, Bai Wutong also wanted to install a huge floor-to-ceiling window for the house. When she woke up with Chu Tianbao in the morning, she would be able to see the beautiful sea view.
In the computer in her RV space, there was information about human civilization. It was not difficult to heat glass.
Moreover, there was already the process of making transparent glass previously. It would not be too surprising for lower-cost glass to appear.
Although the southern frontier was a little far away, there was petroleum, jade mines, and abundant resources. More people would definitely rush over because of the foreign culture she had brought. With glass and good soundproofing, they could repair entire apartments and provide accommodation for the visitors.
Cui Shize was completely petrified after she said that one tael of silver could buy one a piece of glass. He even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
However, Bai Wutong’s serious expression told him that she wasn’t joking either. The glass could be casually given to everyone to use.
He said excitedly, “Madam’s graciousness is really the peak that we can only dream of!’
Bai Wutong smiled slightly. She was just thinking for herself, she was not that gracious.
Cui Shize could not wait to tell everyone that another important milestone had appeared in the history of construction. However, he suddenly thought of an important question. “Madam, Master, what should we name our city? Should we ask Lord You?”
He asked Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao more to hear their thoughts.
Bai Wutong thought for a moment. “Baye means freedom. Then let’s call it
Carefree City.. “
