The organizational efficiency of the Han Dynasty is really not high, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu, dispatched the army to prepare grain and straw, these work took three years, broke the west of the river, and it took five or six years to establish Jiuquan County, in contrast, Wang Hou only spent four months to rebuild Puyang City, which is simply like flying.

A total of 40 small buildings, distributed on both sides of the T-shaped main road of the east and west south gates, the building is three floors high, it is completely built with unqualified steel bars and unqualified cement, the white gray and yellow mud are painted, the earth yellow is square, the appearance of straight up and down is very different from the contemporary building, anyway, Cao Hongjie looks straight and awkward.

These buildings really took a lot of effort from Wang Hou, although the building is not big, only a thousand square meters, and the independent small field of the high-end community in later generations is about the same, but it is a sparrow although it is small.

Downstairs is supported by load-bearing columns and load-bearing walls, for the hall of shop sales, behind the hall is the storage warehouse, some small buildings also have specially excavated cellars, in addition to the south gate and the edge of the Taishou Mansion two or three floors of the inn are completely used for accommodation rooms, the rest of the whole is used as a shop on the second floor of the office, three floors of accommodation, the back of the building is also assigned to a large area, the inn is in the yard to build a livestock shed parking lot, the rest of the yard edge is built a circle of the same cement brick warehouse plant, After moving in, it is very convenient to pile up some heavy sundries in the backyard, or build a blacksmith shop or something.

Moreover, Wang Hou, who was frozen into a dog in winter and squatting in a pit, fully considered the two functions of heating and going to the toilet, all the rooms in the three-story building have a hollow fire wall, and the accommodation room also has a fire kang, and in winter, through the stove on the first floor, the heat can be spread to the entire floor through the fire wall and the fire kang

And there are seven indoor bathrooms in the whole building! Two on the first floor, two on the second floor, two on the third floor, the boss suite has a separate one, there is no plastic water pipes in this year, in order to accommodate the boss guys who will settle in the future "worries", Wang Hou specially fired a large number of pottery pipes in the pottery workshop of Xudu, in order to accommodate the pottery pipes, and built a wall with a thickness of two meters behind the building.

Wang Hou, who repaired the house, did not forget his title of Night Fragrance Cangcao, and all kinds of "fragrant sprays" that were led down from the upper floor would be washed into the buried manure tank under the yard, and the opening would be placed by the ditch outside the backyard, and there would be cleaners who would regularly load these fertilizers in large barrel trucks and transport them outside the city, water them into the fields, and in the end, return to the mouths of these boss guys!

Is it any wonder that people in later generations will enthusiastically ask if they have eaten? Eat pull pull pull! What a perfect loop!

Now the only thing that Wang Hou regrets is that he has not yet made a comfortable toilet, so he can only use a ceramic elbow to connect to the same pottery squatting poop, and then use more than a dozen catties of cement bricks to pile it up, and even has not automatically flushed, if any slacker forgets to flush after squatting, it is estimated that the taste in the house will be quite touching!

In fact, it is not impossible to get the tap water king, there is no water pump, so it is pumped from the Yellow River by water wheel, and then learn from the ancient Roman model to build an aqueduct water tower, with a fired pottery pipe to lead the water to each household, the technology at that time was also possible.

However, Wang Hou's construction period is too tight, even if there are 2,500 workers to build forty small buildings, and the manpower is sufficient, there is really no time to build in four months, and even these small buildings are slightly renovated except for the two inns, the floor is laid on the ground, and the kang is paved with leather kang leather, and the rest is still a rough house full of cement smell.

In Puyang, Wang Hou did not put the treasure on the cultivated land at the beginning, and he completely learned the fat and oily developers of later generations! The commercial center and residential community are developed together, and then attract investment to form a commercial street to attract people.

But Wang Hou, can Wang Hou really get his wish?

Really can!

In terms of resources, the east county north of the Yellow River has no resources except for the fertile plains hitting the fertile fields, and the fuel Wang Hou has to pass through the Puyang ancient ferry port and import it from his coal mine in Xuchang.

However, in terms of geographical location, Puyang is definitely a prime commercial street in the center of the city!

Not to mention the Han Dynasty, the roads of all dynasties are built with two words, spicy chicken! The Qin Dynasty's well-known Qin Straight Road is also for the emperor and the military, not for civilian or commercial use, especially in the late Han Dynasty, the roads around the country are even more lacking in maintenance, the left hole is destroyed and another eye, and the land transport volume is too small, the cost is too high, this year the bulk of commercial freight or water transport.

Puyang was able to develop to a population of more than 370,000 at the peak of the Han Dynasty, and this is precisely the reason! Less than ten miles to the south, it is the most golden artery of this era, the Yellow River!

Now the lower reaches of the Yellow River have only been redefined for more than 100 years, far less than the later Song Dynasty times to raise the siltation, close to the whole line of the same navigation, the Yellow River ferry in Guanzhong can go downstream, and Xuzhou, Shandong around the merchants can also go upstream.

Moreover, although Puyang's geographical location is quite sad, it is in the center of the two super forces of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but this is not Puyang's advantage! If he could communicate the trade routes of the four counties of Hebei, Wang Hou would have made a fortune.

At least so far, Wang Hou's Puyang Xinju Community business district has ushered in a good start.

At this time, Wang Hou has a lot of resources in his hands, Cao Cao sent him to draw a circle of gifts, he has thousands of pieces of cloth, in order to cooperate with him to develop Puyang, Cao Cao gave him the coal mine iron ore in Funiu Mountain to supply more than 5,000 Qingzhou soldiers of the strong men, a steady stream of coal and iron tools to the north, Wang Hou is also shameless not a penny of wages, so these iron products are all assigned to the arms, and then there is Yanba, Dongpu's well salt.

Relying on the four small buildings on the edge of the Taishou Mansion, all of them are Wang Hou's self-kept shops, the first one is simple, a large scale is placed on a large counter at the door, and the other hall is directly covered with a bucket of straw well salt, the second small building is slightly complicated, Wang Hou pulled all kinds of cloth from the Central Plains and placed it in the black lacquer painted with gifts and received, black wood counter, in addition to Wang Hou's patent, several bulging bags like bread down jacket robes, down jackets and vests are worn on wooden people, and they are also divided into large, medium and small sizes, A large row was placed.

The third shop is even more complicated, the wall is full of hoes, pickaxes and shovels, and the cabinet on the other side is also a dazzling array of ironware, iron cans, iron bowls, iron scoops, and iron tickling, and behind the shopkeeper, there are Wang Hou's highlights, more than a dozen black and swarthy large iron pots.

The big brother of Chinese cuisine, the little ancestor that future generations of chefs must be proficient in, was finally crossed by Wang Hou from the Song Dynasty to the war-torn late Han Dynasty, and unlocked the three technology points of frying, frying and stir-frying on the technology tree of Chinese cuisine.

The last shop is the most complicated, it is Wang Hou to make a restaurant inn, there is no warehouse on the first floor, the whole hall is completely open, an area of more than 300 square meters, more than 100 sets of tables, chairs and benches, the ground is paved with wooden floors, and there is a huge kitchen in the back, the front is like the Longmen Inn in the movie, an old man of the Taiyuan Wang family wearing ingots brocade holds an abacus as the shopkeeper, and on the counter behind him, there are also jars of wine.

At this time, the restaurant, which had only been built for the third day, was already overcrowded, because the first wave of guests invited by Wang Hou had already traveled upriver along the Yellow River and arrived at the transit station of Puyang.

Chen Deng's Xuzhou business group!

With 28 boats and more than 1,400 people, Chen Deng, who was promoted to Xuzhou after beating Liu Bei away, came in person!

Although it is heavy agriculture and suppressing business, but Xuzhou's business tradition is still extremely strong, see the outstanding characters to know, closely support Liu Bei, but also marry his daughter to his Mi Zhu Mi Fang family, is Xuzhou businessman background, although the Guangling Chen family is not as extensive as the Mi family in business, but next to each other, Chen Deng obviously also participated a lot.

Shandong's dried jujubes, light and thin as a spider's web, as well as dried fish and shrimp from the sea, dried shells, large shells, pearls, and a dazzling array of commodities brought by Chen Deng.

However, at this time, in the private room on the second floor, sitting on the table facing seven or eight Xuzhou Gaoshi and high-ranking officials of Dongjun, Chen Deng was very faceless and complaining, and he was quite angry and humming.

"Good for you, a king! Even I, Chen Yuanlong, are pitted! ”

Xuzhou is close to the sea, what is the biggest specialty? Sea salt! Good guy, this time he brought five boats of more than 5,000 stones of sea salt, and he was excited to make a windfall in the Central Plains, but when he arrived at the place, he was dumbfounded, Wang Hou's salt shop did not know how much good well salt there was, there was no transportation cost, and the price was more than half cheaper than sea salt.

This salt is destined to be smashed in his hands, Chen Deng is true temperament, and Wang Hou don't need to be polite, he directly complained with a stinky face.

Fortunately, it is not the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties when Huaiyan dominated the world, otherwise Wang Hou would have to find a way to stab him to death, and now the battle of interests in the salt industry is not as fierce as in later generations, and Chen Deng does not expect to sell salt to eat, this complaint is to let Wang Hou remember that he owes him a personal favor, and after a lot of sophistication, Wang Hou naturally recognizes this clearly, accompanied by a smiling face, Wang Hou bowed heavily with the wine bowl.

"Brother Yuanlong, how dare the foolish brother? I didn't expect you to bring salt! In this way, there are forty small buildings in this city, you fancy the one, you can pick it, and the foolish brother will give it to you to make amends! In addition, I will invite Brother Yuanlong to eat our special delicacies in Dongjun, what do you think? ”

"That's it, you!"

The novelty is novelty, but the aesthetic concept is different, living in the Han Dynasty carved beams and painted eaves and arches, to Wang Hou's yellow and not a few, the interior is also a cement primary color of the reinforced concrete building, Chen Deng really can't look at it, is very casual wave of his hand.

"Let's just guard the four opposite the mansion! Give the merchants who came with Chen a place to settle down and sell, as for the food, it's not that Chen is proud, what kind of rare and delicious food can you have in the Central Plains? If you ask about the sweetness of food, it has to be Xuzhou, where I have the benefit of the sea! ”

This Chen Deng is absolutely confident, not to mention the rich products of Xuzhou, just he himself is a complete foodie, otherwise he would not have died of parasitic disease and vomited blood at the age of only thirty-four because of gluttony, Wang Hou can come up with any good dishes, he really doesn't believe it.

However, before he could finish his words, he was pulled out by Wang Hou to entertain the guests, and Cao Hongjie, who was already round in his belly, swallowed his saliva very unproductively, and at the same time, a strong fragrance wafted out of the small kitchen on the second floor.

It was Lu Ji who came up with the plate!

To say that people really have to be talented! A few days ago, the first batch of large and small iron pots built by Xu Du was sent to Puyang, and as soon as the matter was lost, Wang Hou, who had not eaten stir-fried vegetables for a long time, rolled up his sleeves and went down to the kitchen, and after a whole day, he sadly faced the table with black shrimp, black fish and black ribs, and smashed the pot with a bang.

However, watching him busy with his work, after finishing the chores in the house, Lu Ji was curious and also took the pot to the kitchen, and the next morning, in Wang Hou's shocked and incredulous eyes, she served a scrambled egg and leek with a delicious egg for breakfast for the embarrassing trio of the palace.

Then a plate of eggs and fried leeks Wang Hou ate a skin, and the rest was full of tangled and complicated Cao Hongjie ate the noodles.

If you want to capture a man's heart, you have to grab a man's stomach! The same is true for women, I am very encouraged, these days in the kitchen every day, a magical scene happened, the two girls who were stiff and didn't speak when they met, the relationship was actually a lot more harmonious, looking at the plate brought by Lu Ji, Cao Hongjie, this girl actually jumped up with interest, took the initiative to take the plate in her hand, and excitedly nodded a little brain melon to Lu Ji.

"My sister has worked hard!"

Today's Wang Hou's tutor is absolutely ashamed! Worried about her round belly, this girl was very faceless and inhaled the aroma first, and then put the plate in the middle of the table with her saliva in her mouth.

"Goo-too~ Dangdang Dang! The famous dish of my palace, golden fried river prawns! ”

Although the Yellow River prawns are not as big as the shrimp in these years, they are not small, and the river prawns the size of a thumb are wrapped in flour and lie in a simple ceramic plate with golden light.

"Don't get too tired! I'll leave the rest to the next person, and you can come over and eat too!" ”

Seeing that a few strands of Lu Ji's hair were stained with sweat on her smooth forehead, Wang Hou was quite upset in his heart, and when he came to the palace, he kept snubbing this girl, but except for beating himself violently when he saw him, Lu Ji was silently supporting himself behind his back, his heart was surging, he stood up and suddenly grabbed Lu Ji's little hand, Wang Hou said to her quite sincerely.

This sudden intimacy made Lu Ji's little face red, and she retracted her hand like an electric shock, but looking at Wang Hou's smiling face, she wanted to send her little hand back in a panic, but before she could stuff it into Wang Hou's hand, she suddenly found that this action seemed to be a little inappropriate, and she quickly retracted her little hand with a red face, stumbling and shaking her little brain.

"The concubine is not hungry!"

"Well, the kitchen is still on fire! Master slow use! The concubine is back! ”

Seeing Lu Ji running back to the kitchen in a panic, in a helpless wry smile, Wang Hou shook his head quite distressedly, the most difficult to accept the grace of the beauty, now even if Lu Ji wants to leave, he is reluctant, so he has to find a way to settle Cao Hongjie, this little girl, turned around in distress, and was just about to sit down at the black round table, but after glancing at the table, Wang Hou stood up again in amazement.

This situation is so weird! Cao Hongjie's beautiful big eyes blinked, holding a chopstick, Chen Denghua was petrified! The strong man in Shandong who he didn't know next to him also used this chopsticks to petrify, the two guests from Xuzhou were full of incredulity, and Liu Wei, who came to Puyang to pay salt, was also stunned.

What's wrong with the shrimp???
