Follow General Cao to mix the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 206
In one sentence, Mr. Lu Xun has thoroughly studied the Chinese peasants of all dynasties. As long as there is a way to survive, they will bend down and be docile like old scalpers. horrible!
So these civilian captives in Qingzhou who were captured by Taishan thieves were just like Wang Hou’s routine. First, they would give some small favors to increase their favorability, and then tell you when they should run away. It is reasonable, more than 9000 people are really confused by him, and they will give him to do their work honestly without pay.

Since the clothes are uniformly made, there is no need to think about the fit. On the edge of the desolate beach, a large number of men are in a daze, wearing new clothes of large and small sizes, carrying wood and popping wood flowers under the command of the craftsmen of the palace. After the planks burst out, they were nailed together ugly with nails to build a wooden shed.

There is no need to lay foundations, and the wooden houses are built quickly, almost at a speed visible to the naked eye. The wooden houses are in line with the aesthetics of the Han Dynasty, and the quick-built wooden houses quickly rise up on the flat tidal wasteland two miles away from the beach. This time it is Jia Xu is happy, but Wang Hou is not happy!But he is also the same, the seaside is not as strong as the Central Plains or Taishan, and the wind and humidity are also strong. If the residence is not built as soon as possible, a large-scale disease will break out sooner or later.

The clay ore lime mines that can be seen everywhere in the mountains are very poor here, and they have to be transported near Ju County. There are a lot of iron ore, and the slag that can be used for cement has not yet been smelted. His plan for a reinforced concrete city , still remain on paper.

It is precisely because of the poor supplies and the harsh environment that even Wang Hou and his family did not receive any special treatment. They lived in a carriage at night, and as winter gradually began, they would often be woken up by the cold. Early in the morning, Wang Hou Trembling, she got out of the carriage, but Lu Ji had already got up early. On the simple stove made of bricks, she was struggling to put the heavy marching pot on it, facing the cold wind blowing in the morning, she poured it into the pot one by one. Flooding in the water, Cao Hongjie, who has never touched the spring water with his ten fingers, turned out to have little hands that were red from the cold, and they were washing clothes in the basin.

Seeing Lu Ji stroking the sweat-stained hair on her forehead with her small hands from time to time, and Cao Hongjie's frozen little hands, Wang Hou's heart was really tight for a while.

Life in later generations is getting better and better, but the relationship between people, especially between husband and wife, is becoming more and more indifferent. Divorce abounds. I often hear my parents sigh, what happened to the young people now!It's not like in their era, two people share a bowl of leftover rice and a cold soup, and they've lived like this for a lifetime. It's not like the young people nowadays, who can talk about breaking up for a little money, saying that their relationship is broken Just break up.

Now, the love between him and Cao Hongjie, between him and Lu Ji, should belong to the romance of sharing joys and sorrows with his parents and enjoying the last bowl of leftover cold soup!
Romance sometimes doesn't need too many words to express and modify, just one action, walk forward, suddenly took the cold bucket from Lu Ji, in her astonishment, she couldn't help but pour it into the pot with a clatter, put it down Bucket, he rushed to cross the bamboo poles together and tied them up with ropes. Five bamboo poles, two and two were used as supports, and one was placed in the middle. He set up the clothes hanger. Li lifted up a robe, and he rushed to take it first, and put it on the clothes rack to dry.

Seeing that Wang Hou was also blowing cold air on his hands from the cold, Cao Hongjie couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

One kind of happiness is to create together in this ordinary life.

But life can always give people some surprises. I cooked today’s breakfast with Lu Ji, a big pot of boiled eggs, vegetables and dried noodles, and Zhang Liao, Jia Xu, Zang Hong and several other shameless Running over with a bowl to eat and drink, just as Wang Hou's food was in full swing, the edge of the small courtyard surrounded by a temporary carriage, suddenly came the sound of panting, turning his head in astonishment, Wang Hou was so busy that he had forgotten about the future big checkpoint, and Sima Yi, who was nearly thirty but pretended to be tender, came hurriedly, panting.

"Zhou Mu, at sea! A boat is coming!"

He really didn't even care about eating, so he threw down his rice bowl, and Wang Hou ran out with his binoculars on.

…………

In other words, life really needs to have a few strong buddies. When he was freezing here, Chen Deng, a good buddy from Xuzhou, pulled him again. Once again, more than a dozen huge and towering Xuzhou boats appeared on the seashore. Then one docked on the trestle he built last time.

This time Chen Deng brought him the clay, lime, and slag that Wang Hou urgently needed. Who really, these things are really not commodities in this era, almost unprofitable, and so cumbersome, Chen Deng He can also send a special boat to deliver it to him once, which shows the care and enthusiasm of his friend!

The folks at the port walked up the bridge along the plank road, and carried the heavy ore in one big basket after another. The Chen Jiafat businessman who led the fleet to the north at the other end laughed and hugged Wang Hou. fist.

"I went back and told the news that Zhou Mu was going to Xuzhou to kill my Patriarch. The Patriarch turned pale with shock. If Zhou Mu went and was beaten to death by my Patriarch, I would have to pay Zhou Mu for your soup. So this time the Patriarch sent me Hurry up and send some entertainment, it's an apology to Zhou Mu!"

Watching the baskets of cement materials being transported ashore, Wang Hou suddenly grabbed the fat man's hand, shaking it up and down affectionately, and at the same time said solemnly with gratitude.

"Go back and tell your Patriarch, I, Wang Hou, have made a note of this kindness. When my Rizhao City is repaired, I will invite him to come and visit me in person. I will treat him to Guolao! Eat a box of leeks!"

Pot roast?fried leek dumpling?
Another bunch of black question marks popped up on the fat businessman's forehead.

…………

Thanks Chen Laotie for the cement, Laotie 666!

With the materials, Wang Hou burned the cement before unloading the goods.

Fortunately, I brought two sets of millstones from Mount Tai last time. The remaining iron slag, lime, and clay after iron smelting were put inside together, and two old cows buzzed and circled there, extremely delicate The dust fell from the edge of the roller with a whistling sound.

At the other end, a kiln was also piled with clay. Freshly ground lime slag and other cement materials were put into the frame and stuffed into the upper half of the kiln. The bottom part was lit with high-quality raw coal from Mount Tai. In the flames, the first batch of cement in Rizhao City was burned!

However, not everyone welcomes the arrival of cement, at least Jia Xu who is allergic to Wang Hou's cement house is one of them!Looking at the fire below, Wang Hou's mouth couldn't help but smile, and he heard the old man crouching next to the handsome Sima Yi with his mouth crooked, pointing at the stove, thinking that Whispering and saying bad things in a low voice.

"Did you see! We are out of food, Zhou Mu is now firing Guanyin soil! We will eat soil at night!"

Now he is still a young man who has just started working, even if he has a dark belly, Sima Shuai forced his handsome face to turn pale when he looked at the coal fire burning in the stove.

Wang Hou's old face also turned black, just like the black-bellied Guanyin in "Inhumane", half of his face was dark, and he roared gloomyly.

"Jia Wenhe!!!"
