1003 Basic infrastructure
Everyone couldn’t eat anymore, so they put down their chopsticks and started talking.
Even Madam Zhang, who had always been rather unkempt, could not stand the pile of Daddi that she saw from time to time in the city.
Gu shouxin waited for everyone to finish before saying, ” “Recently, I’ve been tidying up some systems. One of them is that no one in the city is allowed to urinate or defecate anywhere. Every day, there would be bailiffs patrolling four areas. If they were caught, they would be fined silver. If they didn’t have silver, they would be fined to sweep the city. If you build a toilet in the city, the punishment for being caught will be to clean the public toilet in the city.”

Gu Xin thought for a moment and asked, ” if everyone in the city goes to the latrines that the government office built to relieve themselves, the area around the latrine will still smell! If there’s a toilet, we should make a cesspit. It doesn’t feel good to make a cesspit in the city!”
Gu Nian snapped his fingers. that’s not a problem. We can build a toilet not far from the city wall and build a drainage channel. When we dig a toilet outside the city, we can build a toilet on top of the toilet outside the city. Isn’t my cement about to be ready? When the craftsman comes, we’ll add a convenient toilet.”
“Chunlan,” Cai Xiaolian continued,”go to the study and get that bag of documents on the second shelf.”
Only Cai Xiaolian and Gu Ren could understand what he was saying.
Cai Xiaolian had always wanted to make it a big one. She had already asked Gu Nian, Gu Ren, and Peng Yizhu to discuss the problem of the city’s sewage discharge. They hadn’t come up with a solution yet, but since Gu Xin had brought it up today, she could share it with everyone.
After a while, the maidservant, Chun Lan, came over with a document bag. Inside it was Cai Xiaolian’s drawing. She had originally planned to design a toilet for the house.
After everyone saw it, they clicked their tongues in wonder. It could actually be like this.
When Gu shouxin saw this, he immediately asked a servant to go to his office to get the map of kun city. The family didn’t eat and gathered around another round table to discuss where the public toilet in the city should be.
Kun city wasn’t very square, but the main road between the East and West gates divided the north and south areas. In the middle of the main road was a Street that divided the East and West areas.
There were four regions in kun city, namely the Northwest, northeast, Southwest, and Southeast regions.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the northwest region, there were the Peng mansion and restaurants. The other places were empty because they were close to the West City gate. There were fewer people living there. Only the Peng family lived there. As for the southwest region, it was the trading area and the Peng family Army’s West Camp. There were no people living there.
In the southeast Region, there was a brothel near the kun River, followed by the residences of the commoners, as well as a small grocery store and market. The northeast District was the county government office, and the residences of the families of the soldiers and some of the rich merchants of the great Zhou who participated in the trade.
Looking at it, there were more people in the southeast and Northeast regions. Everyone’s daily activities were here. In the southwest and Northwest, besides the Peng family’s people, there were the Peng family’s Army and the merchants from several countries in the restaurants and trading areas.
In the end, the Gu family came to a consensus to build four public outhouses in kun city, one for men and one for women, one for each district.
There were 12 holes in each toilet for men and women. Each toilet had to be dug a little deeper, and then they would be sent out by pipes halfway. Outside the city, there were big cesspit.
Uncle Gu was the one who chose the location outside the city. He was the one who opened up the land, and he knew the best which location was the most convenient.
In an instant, Gu Nian was filled with fighting spirit. This was the construction of infrastructure in ancient times!
