At this time, it was late at night, the city gate was closed early, and when Du Ji arrived, he used the identity of the angel to call the city open. It can be seen that Du Ji still took Chen Ran's entrustment to heart and rushed to Chang'an non-stop. Gai Xun, Duan Xuan, and Wang Nao went to the city together, and after checking Du Ji's identity, they opened the door and invited him to enter the city. Subsequently, Du Yi passed the edict to Duan Zhongming, and Gai Xun re-hosted a banquet to entertain Du Ji.

With the confirmation of Du Ji and the edict, Wang Haohao's favor in Duan Xuan suddenly doubled. This baby is real, and what she told me before was the truth. He is a protégé of the Son of Heaven and an upstart in the army, and we have to beg others in the future.

The banquet was reopened, and there was a lot of laughter and laughter during the banquet, and the only thing Duan Xuan had to think about was how big an official His Majesty could give himself after returning to Beijing. The right commander, who is equivalent to a general of the chariot cavalry, doesn't want to, so he can have a military commander and a deputy commander, even if it is a division commander. So, he toasted to the king again and again, and the meaning of closeness was undoubted.

"It's not that my king is making trouble and bragging, don't look at us as a little master, it's still a bit of a pound to talk to Your Majesty. When I was the deputy captain of the brigade for His Majesty, I whistled in the middle of the night, and I had to get up and pee! Brother Zhongming, do you know that Dong Yue has a guy named Wang Fang under him? ”

Wang Chaofu seemed to be drunk too much, and his mouth was full of nonsense, but fortunately, Gai Xun and Duan Xuan didn't know that the "deputy captain" he said was in charge of a group of elementary school students, and they thought they were a big official. There is no way, even the angels let the king make trouble, obviously people are closer to His Majesty.

Duan Xuan said very cooperatively: "Brother Fool has heard a little about this person, and originally seemed to be a lieutenant under Dong Yue's subordinates. ”

Wang naoyao patted his chest and said proudly: "The Luoyang I sent him, turn your face, guess what?" ”

After Liu Hanshao became emperor, these exiled officials who had never returned to the capital were curious about what happened in the capital, so Gai Xun was no exception, and hurriedly asked, "How?" ”

"He is now the head of the Hongnong City Management Detachment! It's that Hongnong is too shoushou to ask people to do things, and they have to be polite. ”

Gai Xun and Duan Xuan don't even know what a "deputy captain" does, let alone the "urban management detachment leader". Judging from the previous cognition, Taishou should be the head of a county, why should he be polite to the head of the urban management detachment? However, judging from Wang Naohao's unobtrusive face, this detachment leader must also have a lot of things to say.

In order to stabilize the place, fire prevention and theft, the city management also has to patrol the night at night, at this moment Wang Fangzheng is standing in the street of Hongnong in a daze, one hand rattan shield, one hand treasure stick, like a guardian saint, but more like a mascot. Suddenly, for no reason, I felt a chill down my spine.

Duan Xuan saluted Wang Nao's glass of wine again, and then said: "Brother Xian, Brother Fool is back in Beijing this time, people and land are unfamiliar, there are many inconveniences, and it is good to have Brother Xian recommend Brother Yu more." ”

Wang made a fuss and swore and said: "Brother Zhongming's words, isn't it a foreign way? Who is with whom we brothers? I'll write a report to Your Majesty when I get back......"

"Report?"

Duan Xuan was a little puzzled, and Wang Nao explained: "Oh, it's the chapter." I will truthfully report the merits of Brother Zhongming to Your Majesty, and I am sure that Your Majesty will also look at Brother Zhongming differently and entrust him with important responsibilities. ”

"So very good, so very good, foolish brother here to thank the virtuous brother first." As he spoke, Duan Xuan picked up another cup.

"Where does my brother say, for the sake of the country, it was originally what we should do."

Wang Chaofu seemed to suddenly remember, and said: "By the way, Gaifujun, you can also return to Beijing with Brother Zhongming." If you return to Beijing early, you can also become a big official as soon as possible, and you can also take care of each other with Brother Zhongming. ”

To be honest, Gai Xun really wanted to go back to Luoyang to have a look, but as the guard of a county, he couldn't forget his duty and couldn't leave the place under his jurisdiction without permission.

Wang made a fuss and said: "What is there to worry about, didn't the edict just now also say that Brother Zhongming returned to Beijing to report on his work, and my second division took over the defense of Jingzhao." I'll order you to escort Brother Zhongming back to Beijing, won't you? ”

I don't understand, can you, the division commander, still order me? But Gai Xun thought that by his own accompaniment, Duan Duan's heart could be simmered. At present, the most important thing is to send Duan Xuan Shunshun to the capital, let Wang Nao take over Jingzhao, and don't cause any trouble. Moreover, I really want to go to Luoyang to have a look.

How could Gai Xun have thought that letting him return to Beijing together was purely an impromptu intention of the king to make trouble. After class with Cai Yong, fighting wits and courage for so many years, Wang Naohao knows that the "good old man" is the most difficult to deal with, he can't fight, he can't scold, he can only be held to listen to the lesson. Seeing that Jingzhao's place was about to be tossed by himself, it was troublesome to keep Gai Xun's nagging, so he simply sent it away, and earned a reputation of "promoting virtue for the country".

After the banquet was over, Wang Nao returned to the room prepared for him by Gai Xun, and the guard battalion commander immediately followed up quietly and reported: "Division commander, the brothers have withdrawn. Don't we really need to guard against Duan Xuan? ”

"No, the more unprepared we are, the more down-to-earth Duan Xuan will be. Let the brothers all sleep well, and someone will stand guard for them. ”

When he said this, Wang Nao's face was full of sly smiles, how could he still have the slightest appearance of drinking?

Early the next morning, everyone prepared to send Du Ji to Chencang, but the regiment belonging to the second division had to stay. Du Ji was saying that he was leaving, and suddenly the city gate reported, saying that a large number of Han Zheng troops had been found outside the city, so everyone climbed to the top of the city again, only to see that outside the city were two neat cavalry regiments, and Chen Ran had rushed more than 100 miles overnight.

Seeing that Wang was safe and sound, Chen Ran's hanging heart finally let go, saluted to the city, and shouted loudly: "Hello teacher!" The 7th Brigade of the 2nd Division of the Han Zheng Army, Brigade Commander Chen Ran, report to you! ”

To put it mildly, Wang Naohao had long hoped that Chen Ran, a stuffy donkey, would salute him, but at this moment, in order to decorate himself, Chen Ran really saluted himself in front of outsiders, and he still felt sour for Mao?

…………

Zou was taken away by Zhang Xiu, no matter how lost and sentimental Cao Cao was in his heart, the road still had to move forward step by step, and the days had to go forward day by day. Regarding his position as the "Minister of Communication", only Liu Hanshao secretly laughed until his intestines were knotted, and no one could share this little bad taste. Others don't dare to despise it at all, just by Liu Hanshao's sentence "traffic in all directions, the sky is in the sky" is enough to see the great power and the sufficiency of oil and water. Don't think that the ancients didn't know that building roads and making money was fast, even if it was a levy and conscription, they had to pay money and food, right? The entire road of the Han Dynasty is for Cao Mengde to repair, as long as there is a slight deduction, the little black fat man will not become a little black big fat man.

But at this time, Cao Cao was not so crazy and cool, and the first thing to do was to choose a site by the river and build a new cement factory. Whether it is building a kiln or setting up a waterwheel, these things are still easy to do, and the most troublesome thing is still the big iron mill. The new iron mill is not only much larger than the original, but also in order to increase the hardness of the grinding groove, Liu Hanshao also proposed a quenching process.

When Pu Chang heard about it, he immediately cried.

This thing is so big, how many people can't move it, how can it be quenched?

Later, Ma Jun thought of a trick, set up a super large seesaw, tied the iron mill with an iron chain at one end, and hung it by the river, after it was burned red, the other end was forced by 100 people to re-lift the iron mill, and then turn it into the river and put it down directly to quench. That scene was also quite spectacular, and there were tens of thousands of onlookers alone.

Fortunately, the specific details have technical operations, and Cao Cao is only responsible for big problems such as deploying manpower and materials. Even so, they were busy, and Cao Hong and Cao Ren all called to help.

There are two cement projects in the first batch, the first is to pave a cement road, from the Middle East Gate Street that runs through Nangong and Beigong to Jinshi, and then turn south to connect Yongmen Street. After it is paved, this is the main road of Luoyang City. The second is to build a small Besano, which is located in the southwest corner of the North Palace, because that place has been empty in the past, and there are no palaces or houses, and in the future, it will be regarded as the residential area of the important ministers of the Political Council. Of course, the first small bieye belonged to Yuan Benchu, and of course, he had to pay for it himself.

The main building faces west and east and is three and a half stories high, because the fourth floor is only an attic, and the roofs on the left and right sides are still empty. When the time comes, while making a small garden on the roof, get a big parasol, set a table, and put a few chairs, it will become a terrace for leisure and coolness. The third floor is reserved for Yuan Benchu and his wives, there are single rooms and suites, in addition to independent toilets, there is even a bathroom that is about the size of a swimming pool; On the second floor, there is a study, a small living room, a small bar, a chess and card room, and there are also spare rooms. On the first floor, there is a large living room, which can also be divided into a dining room and a living room by the pillars in the hall.

In front of the main building, there are two two-story small buildings on the north and south sides, the north building is idle, and the south building is reserved for servants and maids, and at the same time, the utility room, warehouse, and kitchen are also here, and there is a public toilet. There are two corner open spaces between the main building and the side building, a water tower is built in the north open space, and the open space in the south is left for cars and horses, although it looks a little weird, but there is no water tower to achieve indoor water supply, and there is no car and horse Yuan always has to have legs. In the middle of the three small buildings, facing the gate, build a small circular fountain, put a few stones as a rockery inside, between the side buildings and the gate, there are green spaces on the left and right, plant three or two trees at will, set up a swing. The gate and the fence are all fenced, by the way, there must be a big rain eaves in front of the main building, with steps in the middle and slopes on both sides, so that the carriage can be parked directly in front of the main building, and it will not be drenched in rain or snow.

Yuan Shao was not at home, he had already gone to various counties in Henan to form the People's Assembly, and the chief designer Liu Hanshao took Xiao Biye's sketch and fooled Yuan Shao's wife, Mrs. Liu, and his eldest son Yuan Tan. Mrs. Liu was resigned, especially when Liu Hanshao introduced the use of toilets and bathrooms, she was even more ashamed. However, Yuan Tan listened to it with relish, and even asked in detail about the purpose of the water tower and the effect of the fence wall, and finally said to Liu Hanshao very imposingly: "Okay! Everything will be done according to His Majesty's wishes! ”

Liu Hanshao stretched out his hand and only said: "Take the money!" ”
