Li Shuang saw that Chen Zheng and Xiao Zan were singing and harmonizing, and he snubbed him a little, so he interjected: "Then I am a slingshot, Brother Xiao can use me to throw Brother Chen's stone farther and more powerfully!" ”

"That's wonderful!" Xiao Zan clapped his hands and said, "The three of us will definitely be the best combination!" ”

Chen Zheng rolled his eyes and said, "You two have a good plan to give me away?" ”

Li Shuang also laughed and said: "This is a metaphor, Brother Chen can't take it seriously, could it be that Brother Chen has really turned into stone?" ”

Chen Zheng glared at him and said, "I don't have time to live with you in vain, it's important to get down to business!" ”

So, Chen Zheng ignored Xiao Zan and Chen Zheng, walked in front of Minfu, and said, "Everyone has seen these two hills around the harbor, you need to build a road in Xiaxia, it doesn't need to be too wide, you can transport the trebuchet you made yesterday in Xia." ”

"It's hard to say? I got it! ”

"I'll do it too! I've built roads before! ”

Chen Zheng motioned for them to be quiet and said, "But time is pressing, there is only one day, I don't know if it can be done?" ”

Chen Zheng didn't dare to say too much at this point, after all, he was just a carpenter, and he was not very professional in road construction.

The person who claimed to have repaired the road before looked at the hills on both sides, and said with a sigh of teeth: "Master Chen, this is not easy to do, from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, it is necessary to open the mountain, to level the road, to tamp it, it is really not easy." ”

"The road doesn't need to be too good, just walk it." Chen Zheng added, "As long as the trebuchet can be transported to the top of the mountain, it is completed." ”

The man thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, then it's pretty much okay." ”

Chen Zheng was overjoyed, and asked again: "I don't know the name of this eldest brother?" ”

When the man heard this, he was sincerely frightened, and said, "Oh, Master Chen has tormented me, but I don't dare to call me big brother, my name is Yan Dehui, you can just call me Yan." ”

Chen Zheng nodded, and said to Lu Desheng next to him: "Clerk Lu, you lead some people up the mountain and level the road, if there is any problem, ask this Brother Yan to repair the road in the shortest possible time." ”

Lu Desheng arched his hand and said: "Master Chen, rest assured, I will do my best to share the worries of Master Chen, the county order of Li County, and the ......."

Chen Zheng looked at this Lu Desheng and said that he was about to move the prince out, so he quickly stopped him, "It's useless to talk more, go and work." ”

Lu Desheng and Yan Dehui took the order, ordered about half of the people, went to find tools, and prepared to open the mountain and build roads.

Chen Zheng looked at the rest of the people and said, "Next, there is an important task to be handed over to you." ”

"Master Chen, say it quickly, we can't wait."

"Yes, Master Chen, my hands are itchy."

Chen Zheng smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and pointed to a clearing in the distance, and said, "Have you seen the open space over there?" Your task is to dig a hole there. ”

The clearing was very conspicuous, and everyone knew it at a glance.

"Master Chen, are you going to farm there?"

"Then it's not good to farm here, it's too tight by the sea here, it's all saline-alkali land, and it's impossible to grow crops."

Chen Zheng laughed and said: "I don't have time to plant crops here, you have to dig a deep hole, and the time is also a day, you should be able to complete it relatively early, if it is completed in advance, I hope you can help those who repair the road and speed up the progress of the project." ”

"Don't worry, Master Chen, we won't delay your business."

"It's just that we have the strength."

Chen Zheng turned his head to look at Li Shuang, and smiled, this smile made Li Shuang's heart furious, and he had a premonition that something bad was happening.

"Why is Brother Chen looking at me like this?" Li Shuang asked cautiously.

The corners of Chen Zheng's mouth raised, and he said: "I remember that Brother Li likes to be an overseer, so the overseer of this digging pit is still done by Brother Li, how about it?" ”

"Ah, this ......" Li Shuang was stunned, "Do you be the overseer of digging the pit?" ”

Chen Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, I remember that in Kyoto, it was Brother Li who personally did the supervision of the Sea Whale Bone Temple, which ensured that the project was completed on schedule. ”

Li Shuang looked at the big sun on his head, and said a little reluctantly: "Why don't I remember?" Brother Chen, you must have a bad memory. ”

"Oh." Chen Zheng nodded, but did not refute.

After a short silence, Chen Zheng suddenly slapped his head, made a look of sudden realization, and said, "Oh, I remembered it next, I was Brother Xiao's supervisor at the time, or Brother Xiao this time?" ”

Xiao Zan saw Chen Zheng's expression, and knew what he was thinking, so he sighed very cooperatively, and said: "Alas, it was in Kyoto at the time, and my son still has some face, and someone can still be a supervisor for my son or something; But now? It's in Dongyang City, it's someone's territory, how can we let him do such rough work anymore? We should do this, this overseer, or I'll do it. ”

When Li Shuang heard this, Xiao Zan was obviously referring to Sang scolding Huai about him, so he hurriedly stopped: "Brother Xiao, what are you talking about?" You're a guest from Kyoto, so how could you do such a heavy job? ”

Looking at Li Shuang's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, Chen Zheng felt a little funny, but he couldn't laugh, so he could only pretend to be sad, and said: "Then someone else will be this overseer, don't worry about it, Brother Xiao is a distinguished guest and can't do this kind of work, so who will do it?" You can't let the prefectural magistrate come in person, right? ”

Li Shuang couldn't hear it, Chen Zheng meant to let him be the supervisor.

Moreover, Xiao Zan doesn't seem to be on his side, and if he continues to stalemate, his face will not look good, so Li Shuang nodded and agreed: "My father, as a county commander, has a lot of opportunities, how can he come here to supervise and dig a pit?" As a son of man, he needs to share in his worries, so let me be the overseer. ”

Li Shuang found a step for himself and took over the work of digging the pit and supervising the work.

Chen Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Brother Li, don't be embarrassed, if you don't want to, think of a way to do it later, don't wronged yourself." ”

How could Li Shuang not know that this was Chen Zheng responding to himself, but he couldn't help it, who let him start with some prevarication.

"I am willing, very willing to be this supervisor, please rest assured Brother Chen, there will be no delay in the matter." Li Shuang assured loudly.

Chen Zheng was very satisfied and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, it couldn't be better." Brother Li, you know the function of these deep pits, we have discussed the location of the pits before, this is the last line of defense, don't lose it. ”

Seeing what Chen Zheng said solemnly, Li Shuang also nodded and said, "I know the severity!" ”
