On the second day, Guo Bin led everyone to the lime factory, and saw that the two groups of people were tired and sweating, and they were still pulling the bellows. When I came to Tianchaikou, I only felt a hot wind blowing in my face, as if a wall of air blocked everyone to enter.

At that moment, he ordered people to stop adding charcoal, and asked people to replace the two groups of people who were tired all night, and let them go to eat first. When the charcoal in the cave burned out, Guo Bin asked people to stop pulling the bellows and let it cool down on its own. Here, he led everyone to cut down trees and open the mountain in the direction of Fulong Mountain, intending to open a road to Zhuangzhong. Everyone was busy all day, and when the sun was setting, they returned to the lime factory.

Guo Bin saw that the fire in the kiln had long been extinguished, but although it had cooled down for a day, it was still hot. He left a group of people to watch and led everyone back to the village. When I returned to the cottage, I saw a group of naughty children arguing around Guo Quan, and Guo Quanwu was spitting and talking hotly. In addition, there were nearly 100 ragged strangers standing on the side, at a loss, and more than half of these people were young and strong.

Seeing Guo Bin bring people back, Guo Quan jumped and pounced. It turned out that it was Xi Zhi who asked Guo Quan to return to Zhuang to report the news, and by the way, brought back more than a dozen bankrupt farmers recruited by Yang Lao. There were nearly thirty young people who came with him, but it was Xi Zhi who knew that the villa was understaffed and recruited poor families in Yangzhai County. Most of them were poor craftsmen who were recruited to Fulong Villa for a bite to eat. Guo Bin saw that everyone was in their twenties, although they were all quite thin, but their spirits were not bad, presumably they would be able to live in a few days after eating and drinking.

Guo Bin sighed secretly in his heart: "There is still a good military advisor who is happy, it's too intimate." I am also running a brick factory here, and I am burning lime, and I am short of manpower, so I will send more than 30 young people over there. ”

At that moment, Guo Bin instructed Ma Lao to arrange accommodation for these thirty young and strong people and more than a dozen peasant households, and asked Aunt Lin to cook for everyone.

Not to mention the newcomers who were eating a dinner with meat, vegetables and cakes as if they were reincarnated, and at the same time couldn't stop thanking Dade, Guo Bin took Guo Quan back to the house to talk.

Guo Quan followed Guo Bin into the house with a chatter, first drank a large bowl of cold white on the table, and then sat down to talk, which showed that he was really thirsty.

Guo Bin asked Guo Quan how he went, and Guo Quan foamed at the mouth, but he said it in a clear manner. It turned out that the three of them went back to Guojiazhuang first, and talked to Guo Yong, Guo Yong listened to what the people said reasonably, so he discussed with Xi Zhicai to select clever people from all over the village to go to Yingchuan County to preside over the sale of soap, and at the same time take into account the news. In fact, Guo Yong arranged to go to various places to be responsible for selling soap, and this time he only needed to write to everyone and ask him to leave some money everywhere for building an intelligence network.

On the second day, the three of them came to Yangzhai City non-stop. Xi Zhicai has lived here for a long time, and he has long been confident about where to build a tavern. At that moment, he led Guo Jia to meet with Yangzhai County, and after offering twenty pieces of soap, Liu County's order assigned a vacant land at the west gate of the city to Fulong Villa at a price of half selling and half giving away. Of course, it is also indispensable to have a benefit from the people in the county government.

As for recruiting people, Yang Lao has already led a lot of people to recruit, because of the drought this year, there are homeless people everywhere in the city, and it is quite smooth. Xi Zhicai saw that the matter of the restaurant had an eyebrow, so he wanted to let people lead the people recruited by Yang Lao to go back to the villa first. Guo Quanquan was good, so he volunteered to bring everyone back. As for the construction of the restaurant, there is no need to worry about it. Xi Zhicai told Guo Quan that he would continue to recruit manpower and send them back to the villa when the restaurant was built.

Guo Bin was convinced when he heard it, Xi Zhicai is really Wang Zuozhicai, and his actions in the past few days are indeed well-organized. Many things that he didn't think of, he thought of it, and came to him, and he really made a lot of money.

At that moment, Guo Bin looked at the elated Guo Quan and said, "Brother Quan, it's good for you to come back this time, I'll take you to see the new achievements in the past few days tomorrow." ”

Guo Quan knew that Guo Bin had received a stick from the back of his head, but his brain was better. Now I often come up with some strange ideas and tinker with some new things, but every word is true, and those new things are also very useful. Hearing Guo Bin say that he wanted to see new things, he couldn't sit still at the moment, and shouted that he was going to go now. It was Guo Bin who said that he was in the back mountain, so he gave up.

On the second day, after everyone had breakfast after doing morning exercises, Guo Bin took people to the back mountain. Speaking of morning exercises, I have to mention. The nearly 100 newcomers saw that everyone was running circles around the school early in the morning, and they all stood aside to watch the freshness. When Guo Bin saw it, he ordered them to come up and run together. Seeing the lord speak, everyone didn't say anything, and they ran away behind everyone.

It was fresh at the beginning, and it was able to keep up with the speed of everyone. After four or five laps, the newcomers couldn't run. Guo Bin didn't say anything when he saw this, but the "old men" who ran with him at the beginning of the fight began to get nervous, coaxing and ridiculing all kinds of newcomers, and they were all proud, although most of these "old men" were still naughty children who had not grown their hair. The newcomers couldn't stand it, so most of them blushed and joined the "masochistic" team.

At the end of the run, the "old people" kindly explained the role of running circles to the newcomers, and said that since they followed the main man to run circles, their waists are not sore, their backs are not painful, their legs are no longer cramping, and they are also energetic when walking. Now it's a climb to the top of the mountain in one go, and it doesn't take much effort. In the end, of course, it was inevitable to add fuel to Guo Bin's heroic deeds of killing the black snake and fighting the tiger, as if he had done it himself.

In this way, the newcomers gradually "got on the road". In the future, batches of newcomers will also inherit the habit of running morning exercises in Fulong Villa in a similar way, and some people even use this as a tool for seniority. These people who used to follow Guo Bin to run morning exercises talked about the morning exercise with the lord back then, their eyes were full of memories and pride, and the audience was full of longing and amazement. The newcomers became more and more respectful, and the "old people" immediately became reserved.

After breakfast, Guo Bin led everyone to the back mountain, and this time he specially brought Ma Lao with him. The road to the back mountain has already been surveyed, and the preliminary treatment has been made: the trees on the road have been cut down. Today, I came to fill in the pit and level the ground, and initially clean up a passable road. Therefore, the dozens of young men who came from the new arrivals all brought with them, and everyone carried shovels, pickaxes and other tools.

Halfway through, Guo Bin asked Ma Lao to assign everyone, and each section of the road was subcontracted to people, and the old man and the newcomer were in full swing. He led more than a dozen young and energetic Guo Quan to the lime factory in the back mountain.

When the kiln was opened, I saw that the heat inside had been completely dissipated, the combustion was still sufficient, and there was not much remaining firewood in the kiln.

Guo Quan looked at these calcined limestones, and didn't know why, and asked, "Bin... Lord, what's so strange about these white stones? Why calcination? What are you going to do with it? ”

Guo Bin suppressed the excitement in his heart and said slowly: "This thing is a treasure, in the future, it will all depend on it to build bridges and pave roads and build villas." ”

Guo Bin asked everyone to take out the sacks that had been prepared, carefully put the lime into it with a shovel, and tie the opening. When more than a dozen young people were filled with two large bags each, only a small half of the kiln was lowered. Guo Bin instructed everyone to carry back to the village, while the others continued to pack bags.

Unable to resist Guo Quan, who was full of curiosity, Guo Bin asked people to take out a few pieces of lime and dig a pit and put it in. After setting up an iron pot filled with water on top, he scooped water and poured it over the lime. Everyone saw that a mist rose on the lime in an instant, as if they were in a fairyland. After a while, the water in the pot was boiling, and Guo Quan screamed again and again, and the eyes of the onlookers who looked at Guo Bin changed at this time.

When the water vapor dissipated, Guo Bin asked the iron pot to be removed and the boiling hot water was poured into the wooden barrel for everyone to drink. Looking at the pit again, I saw that the lime had become lime powder, and when the lime powder was taken out, mixed with fine soil and thin mud, I ordered someone to pour it on the road that had been leveled by the lime factory, and then smoothed it with wooden planks. Of course, only half of the side was poured, and the other half of the side still needed to be passed. After smoothing out, Guo Bin ordered everyone to cover it with hay to prevent direct sunlight from drying it out. In this way, a section of the road was completed.

After a busy day, everyone only transported one-third of the hydrated lime in the kiln, and the transportation efficiency of people was really too low.

After a few days of busy work, everyone not only repaired the road leading from the back mountain to Zhuangzhong, but even the road to the brick factory was hardened. Mainly the preliminary survey route, the felling of trees and the preliminary leveling work have already been completed, and it is only left to apply lime mortar. In addition, the manpower has more than doubled, and the progress of the project is unexpectedly smooth. And the road to Guojiazhuang happened to pass through the brick factory, which saved a lot of labor.

Guo Bin has not been idle in the past few days, he led people to transport the dry bricks into the two kilns, and ordered people to fill them with firewood and burn them. It took a day to burn the bricks, and another night to dissipate the heat, and when the furnace was opened, the bricks of the two kilns were declared successful. As soon as the bricks came out, Guo Bin led everyone to transport them all to the village, and built the village gate in the place that had been planned. This is the first real masonry structure building in Fulong Villa, although they are all novices, fortunately there are a few masons and Guo Bin, the second knife commander, the quality of the project is reasonable.

Looking at the gate of the villa that was built, Guo Bin and Guo Quan's brothers only opened their mouths happily and laughed. Since then, Fulong Villa has set off a boom in construction. The lodge has expanded a lot, leaving enough space for future development. In addition, a special soap production workshop and distillery were built out of bricks and stones, and everything went smoothly.

When the expansion of the villa is completed, hang the plaque of the Fulong Villa that has been prepared, and everyone in the village has their own excitement.

Taizu built Fulong Villa with bricks and stones, and it was made in October. The walls are two feet high and unusually strong. In the Yellow Turban Rebellion, everyone relied on this to be preserved.
