It is necessary to build furniture factories, paper mills, wineries, ceramic factories... And so on, it is inseparable from a large number of workers.

Technicians, in particular, are indispensable.

Just like an army, with a capable general, it can charge into battle.

Lu Bu also posted a notice to recruit architects, stonemasons, blacksmiths, and masons, as long as they had something to do with the construction of houses, they would not refuse to come, and hired them with high salaries.

When the people got the news, they rushed to be the first.

In just a few days, hundreds of craftsmen were recruited.

Lu Bu sent people to the Beicheng residential area to lobby the people and buy houses...

Overall, it went well. The people did not act too radically, and few of them resisted, as long as they gave some money and settled their future residences.

"My lord, General Gao asks to see you." Outside Ling Yin's mansion, Zhang Feng's voice came.

"Let him in."

"No."

Lu Bu was holding all kinds of architectural drawings in his hands, and his face was a little ugly.

Gao Shun was dressed in military uniform, walked quickly into the lobby, and saluted Lu Bu: "Lord." ”

"What?"

"The last general has selected 30,000 elites. What should be done with the remaining 30,000 captives? ”

Lu Budao: "To build a factory in Beicheng, you need labor. Keep them first, and then send them to the border after the transformation of Beicheng is completed. ”

"No."

Gao Shun arched his hand.

He raised his head and saw Lu Bu's sad face, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why is the lord worried?" ”

"It's been two days since the notice was posted, and I can't find a useful architect, can you not worry? Without architects, construction can't begin, and how can the North City be renovated? ”

Lu Bu secretly made up his mind that after Yangzhou stabilized, he must cultivate all kinds of talents.

Architects, in particular, should focus on training, and they will definitely be used in the future.

"The last general will recommend one person, who can share the worries of the Lord."

"Who?"

Lu Bu was quite surprised, Gao Shun actually knew someone who knew how to build?

Gao Shun smiled and said, "Didn't the lord forget Lord Xiao?" His architectural talent is no worse than those masters. When he was in Xiapi, he mentioned to the last general that the building of the Nancheng factory was very ugly and unreasonable, and if it was built by him, it would definitely be better. ”

"yes... How did I forget about him. ”

Lu Bu saw the sun like a cloud. I suddenly remembered that at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, many large-scale buildings were planned by Xiao He, although he traveled to the end of the Han Dynasty, but the ability to build houses should not have been lost.

Lu Bu stood up excitedly and said, "Let's go, go back to the Assassin's Mansion." ”

Zhang Pan rushed over and sweated.

"My lord."

Lu Bu glanced at him and said, "I'm going to Lingyin's Mansion, I don't have anything else to do, just say hello to you, prepare 60 million yuan, I'll pick it up in two days." ”

"No."

Back in the Thorn Mansion, Lu Bu asked Xiao He to discuss and implement the matter of building a house.

As Gao Shun said, Xiao He can really build houses, and he can build a variety of styles, whether it is an attic, a courtyard, a large mansion, or even the architecture of a palace, he can grasp it well.

It's like a mountain of gold falling from the sky.

Lu Bu was overjoyed and said, "I am much more relieved to have my father-in-law planning the construction of Beicheng. ”

"But I still have to evaluate officials, I'm afraid I don't have so much time."

"It doesn't matter, you just need to spend a few days, calculate the required materials, and let your men do it. I also recruited a few craftsmen who know a little bit about construction, one of them is quite clever, you teach him, if there is something he doesn't understand, he will come to you again, I believe that the construction will be completed. ”

"Okay."

Under Lu Bu's repeated requests, Xiao He agreed to help.

The next day, he took five architects to survey the topography of the residential area.

Maybe it can't be called a private housing area now, because most of the houses have been demolished by carpenters. As far as the eye can see, it is all ruins.

Xiao He led the architects to measure with a ruler for two whole days, drew the latest architectural drawings and models, and calculated the manpower, material and financial resources required for the entire renovation project.

Assassin in the house.

Five construction masters stood in front of Xiao He.

Xiao He looked at the book in his hand, which clearly recorded the expenses he had just calculated, and the huge number made his eyes swell and his mind swelled.

Lu Bu happened to come back and bumped into this scene.

"Father-in-law, how's the planning going?" Lu Bu found a place to sit down and picked up the tea bottle.

"According to the instructions of the lord, forty factory buildings, ten large warehouses, five guard stations, more than 200 defensive facilities such as arrow towers and watchtowers, as well as nine cross streets, more than 100 two-story attics, post houses, and façade houses should be built. I have just calculated that it will take 100,000 people to mobilize 170 million people, and it will take four months to complete the project. ”

Xiao He took a deep breath and said, "Lord, is this price too great?" ”

"It's only 170 million dollars, is it also called a price? I thought it would cost a billion. Lu Bu shrugged his shoulders and said very easily: "More than a hundred two-story attics are worth 100 million, and the rest are all for nothing." Father-in-law, will you settle accounts? ”

"But the 100,000 people still have to consume tens of thousands of stone of our military rations..."

"There are gains and losses, and if you want to renovate Beicheng, you have to pay some price. For the sake of Shouchun's industry, it can develop rapidly, not to mention tens of thousands of stone military rations, even if it is hundreds of thousands of stones, I am willing to do it. ”

Lu Bu didn't pay any attention to Xiao He, and after a while, he turned to the architects and asked, "You guys, who is the leader?" ”

"Back to the lord, the grass people Yanzhi have worshiped Lord Xiao as a teacher, and I am willing to serve the lord." A young man who was only about twenty years old stood up and made a long bow to Lu Bu.

"Okay, heroes out of boys." Lu Bu groaned and said, "I am going to set up a department called the Construction Division, and you are the head of the Construction Division, specifically responsible for construction." ”

"Thank you for your trust, and I will do my best." Yan Zhi was overjoyed.

The other four are all envious.

Lu Bu glanced at them and continued: "A few of you, if you assist Yan Zhi well, you can also be regarded as officials of the Construction Division. ”

"Thank you, Lord."

At this point, the officials in charge of the construction of the north city were finalized. After Xiao He felt distressed, he put the cost behind him, and spent a long time teaching his apprentice Yanzhi to implement the details of the house construction.

Yan Zhi is humble and learns and earnestly makes notes.

In mid-May of the third year of Jian'an, the houses in Beicheng were demolished, the foundation was laid, and all kinds of materials were ready. Under the leadership of various architects and craftsmen, tens of thousands of laborers (prisoners) entered the northern city and began construction.
