When Chu Jinfeng heard that Shen Rubai came to ask to see him, he couldn't help frowning: he actually came to Sima Mansion, and he really didn't take himself to the outside!

At the moment, he frowned and said, "Just say that I have fallen asleep, please go back first!" ”

The messenger asked Su Xiu to send a piece of letterhead in, and said, "That Lord Shen said that if Lord Sima is not available, you don't need to see each other, but please be sure to take a look at this document." ”

Chu Jinfeng raised the curtain when he heard this, took the document and looked at it, and immediately frowned.

Originally, the construction of the fortifications was to use clay to tamp into earthen wall blanks, and then wrap the earthen walls with green bricks, and then apply lime to reinforce them. Originally, this was nothing, because in order to catch up with the construction period, it was necessary to tamp the earthen wall before the winter permafrost came, burn bricks in the winter to prepare materials, and then wrap the exterior wall in the spring of the next year.

The clay used to build the wall is not from the northern land, but from the central part of Tongxian County, which is slightly whiter in color. This kind of clay is the strongest when used to build walls, so at that time, Nangong Yun asked the saint to play the shang, and specially emphasized the need to use the clay of Tongxian County to build the wall.

However, if you want to transport a large amount of clay to Mobei in time, you need a special earth-moving ship, which has a large load capacity and good rain protection. However, the previous earth-moving ships caught up with the torrential rain, and the clay became heavier and heavier with the rain, and the last few earth-moving boats capsized. If there is no suitable ship to transport the earth, then it is inevitable that the next few construction periods will be delayed.

Shen Rubai had no way, so he could come to Chu Jinfeng to play, and implicitly said that it was too late to rebuild the earth-moving ships, and if there were skilled craftsmen to improve the existing ships, they would definitely be able to solve the urgent need.

As he was looking down, he suddenly felt the delicate figure behind him lying on his back, staring at the contents of the book.

If it is a normal woman, it is very inappropriate to look at the official document like this. But how can you seriously reprimand this little fool? Chu Jinfeng fell back lightly and pressed her with his broad back, making her giggle.

Then he got up unhurriedly and changed his clothes and went to the antechamber. That Shen Rubai also expected it early in the morning, if Chu Jinfeng read the documents, he would definitely come to see him to discuss. Although he drank a cup of tea before leaving, he tasted the charm of the tea in a small sip unhurriedly.

It wasn't until he saw Chu Jinfeng come out that he hurriedly saluted: "The lower official will see Lord Sima." ”

After Chu Jinfeng sat down, he said lightly: "Lord Shen is exempt." When did you say the shipwreck capsized? ”

"On the night of the third day, the official in charge of the escort immediately passed the news through the flying pigeons at the post station. Therefore, the lower officials did not dare to delay, and immediately reported to Sima You. ”

Chu Jinfeng took the tea handed by the servant and said, "Isn't Lord Nangong of the Ministry of Industry still in Wanzhou?" There are many skilled craftsmen in this hundred crafts competition, and this kind of problem should be easy for Lord Nangong, right? ”

Shen Rubai said respectfully: "The lower official also asked Lord Nangong, but the lord said that shipbuilding is not what he is good at, but Mrs. Sima is a well-known shipbuilder, and she has indeed shown her familiarity with the hull in the 100 Gong Competition, and now only Mrs. Sima can transform the hull in a short time to solve the urgent need, and the lower official will come to ask Sima for a decision......

Hearing this, Chu Jinfeng had already sunk his face, and said coldly: "You officials in charge of the fortifications are incompetent, and you actually put the responsibility on a woman in every possible way. Is Da Chu's Yulu going to raise you waste? It is no wonder that the tigers and wolves on all sides are covetous, eyeing the land of our Great Chu. ”

Shen Rubai lifted his robe, knelt down and said: "Please Lord Sima to calm his anger, and the lower officials will not embarrass Mrs., invited some famous shipbuilders, and drew a few drawings of the transformation, but they are not satisfactory." Xia Guan dared to ask his wife to take a look at the drawings to see if the details were thorough and reliable. If she is willing to make one or two corrections to make the project twice as effective with half the effort, then the construction period can be greatly shortened. If this is not the case, the construction period will be delayed, then it will inevitably increase the burden of forced labor on the people of the north, and even if the wind and rain are smooth in the coming year, and there will be no drought or flood, the people will have no time to go back to take care of their fields. At that time, the enemy in the north will take advantage of the weakness to attack, and this fortification that has not yet been built will not be empty on the outside and empty on the inside, and it will be difficult to take care of the end and the end? ”

Chu Jinfeng pondered for a while, knowing that what Shen Rubai said hit the nail on the head. Although this surnamed Shen is a franchise, he has some insight when judging the situation. It's just that this fortification was originally a poisonous plan that the Bai family came up with to drag down and consume Mobei's strength, and now if the construction period is delayed, it will not be in line with their intentions? Why is this Shen Rubai so kind-hearted and trying in every possible way to solve the problem of this clay?

Chu Jinfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, looking down at Shen Rubai, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

How could Shen Rubai not know Chu Jinfeng's doubts, and said in a deep voice: "The lower official knows that the adults have doubts in their hearts. It's just that the matter is assigned to the lower officials, no matter what the princes of the court think, the lower officials only want to properly complete the tasks assigned by the imperial court. Adults should know the details of the situation, and they borrowed a lot from the Li family at the beginning, but they also lost their reputation for borrowing. Now the Bai family wants to recruit the lower official as a son-in-law, although it is not unhelpful to the lower official, but it also makes the lower official involuntary many times, and makes his colleagues and scholars quite disdainful. The lower officials only hope that they can stand on top of the court with their steady and steady achievements.

Lord Sima is the pillar of the court, and he is the pillar of the defense against the border invaders, but there is no shortage of opponents in the court. Xia Guan admires the merits and personality of the adults very much, and is willing to make a little effort for the adults, and become the arms and assistants of the adults, and I hope that the adults can take care of one or two. ”

Chu Jinfeng sneered in his heart: Shen Rubai's ambition is not small, and he has not yet become the son-in-law of the Bai family, so he wants to meet the source left and right, and he buys it from him first.

From his treatment of the Li family, you can see one or two. If this kid gains power once, I'm afraid that the Bai family will not be able to pretend to be a fast son-in-law for Chenglong.

It's a pity that he Chu Jinfeng is not interested in being a stepping stone for this guy.

Thinking of this, he took the drawings and said lazily: "You also know the situation of Ruoyu, her current wits are all taught by Meng Qianji, how can she transform such a tedious matter as a ship." But leave the drawings for me to show her, and I'll let you know if there's anything you can do. ”

Shen Rubai didn't say anything, and got up respectfully to leave. However, when he walked out of the gate of Sima's Mansion, his face, which had always been respectful, darkened, he could see that when Chu Jinfeng came out, the hair on his sideburns was slightly messy, his collar was half-undone, and there were a few kiss marks on his neck. Thinking of the situation when she was pressed by Lord Sima and trembled under her body, and let others use her, Shen Rubai felt a stream of heat surging down, and her eyes sank again.

In fact, this time, the earth-moving boat went wrong, firstly, because of the heavy rain, and secondly, it was nothing more than the hands and feet of Nangong Yun. Even asking Li Ruoyu to transform the ship this time was proposed by Nangong Yun. Although he didn't do anything to Li Ruoyu, it was true that he wanted to meet that beauty. This Nangong Yun has some means to meet the queen mother in the palace. It's a pity that this is not the capital, and Chu Jinfeng is not the queen mother who can be at his mercy, as long as Chu Jinfeng is there, then Li Ruoyu is a mouthful of tender meat in the tiger's mouth, who can take the meat from the tiger's mouth.

However, Nangong Yun hated Li Ruo and couldn't succeed, but he could use one or two. He is now in Mobei, and he is a sharp blade used by the Bai family to deal with Chu Jinfeng, but he has to avoid its edge and carefully wander between the forces of all parties. It was only when they fought and lost all three that he could calmly get what he wanted.

Thinking of this, Shen Rubai quickened his pace and prepared to rush to Wanzhou overnight. If you want the bonfire to burn strongly, you have to pour some oil frequently. But how to skillfully convey Chu Sima's rejection to the people of Nangong?

Chu Jinfeng didn't think to show Ruoyu the drawings brought by Shen Rubai at all, but just threw the drawings in the study casually, and had dinner with Ruoyu.

After dinner, Chu Jinfeng left the house to deal with business.

In his opinion, taking soil from Tongxian County was originally a move to work the people and lose money, why should he go far and near, can't the nearby soil be used to build a city wall? Even if the earth-moving ship goes wrong and doesn't arrive on time, as long as the right clay is found nearby, the walls can still be tamped. Therefore, Shen Rubai's worries just now were not taken seriously by Lord Sima at all.

So as soon as he returned to the barracks, he asked Guan Ba to find a few earth and stone craftsmen, and went to several nearby counties to collect soil samples and select clay suitable for building walls. The clay in the north is mostly black, and although the texture is not as delicate as that of Tongxian, there is nothing wrong with the clay used in the fortifications of the north.

It was Chu Jinfeng who ordered people to transport clay by land, and continued the fortifications that were suspended because the clay was cut off.

When Shen Rubai told Nangong Yun that Chu Jinfeng had rejected Li Ruoyu's transformation of the ship, he thought that he would show anger.

However, Lord Nangong, who was enjoying the sound of piano music on the Xiuchun Tower in Wanzhou, did not get angry at all, but gently shook the folding fan, his beautiful eyes closed slightly, and he seemed to be completely intoxicated by the sound of the piano of the Xiuchun Tower.

When the last note shook off the strings, he couldn't help but smile and clapped his hands and said: "The rhythm of this Wanzhou Oiran Chu Wanniang really lives up to its reputation, come on, reward!" ”

Chu Wanniang smiled slightly, neither humble nor arrogant: "Lord Xie's reward, after speaking, I wanted to turn around and retreat, but Nangong Yun slowly opened her eyes and said: "It's a pity that this Xiuchun Building is indeed mixed with three religions and nine streams, and it is tainted with vulgarity, it really damaged the girl's Yayin, I don't know if the silver bag in the lower seal is rich enough, can I invite Miss Chu to come to my place to perform Yayin again?" 166 Reading Network
