Yes! Yes! Yes!

A scream came, and the irritated Qingmo eardrum swelled, he looked around for a while, pulled out his feet and ran towards a crowd of people, shouting hot oil, while separating the crowd and squeezing it desperately, like a small loach. There was a burst of scolding in the crowd, but when it became clear that the person who came was the little follower who led Li Mao, the scolding turned into a laughing scolding, in general, Li Mao's popularity on the construction site in Gushan Town was still quite good.

A flagpole helped a fat man with a **** on his back, with whip marks on his body, a pawn was wielding a leather whip and whipping it fiercely, and a small correction was foaming at the mouth to explain the reason why the fat man was beaten, he was holding two planks in his hand, a straight pine plank, and a twisted poplar plank.

"Take the poplar that is twisted when you see the water and pretend to be pine wood to make a pressure plate, what is this called, this is called shoddy, this is called cheating, it is a lack of virtue that only the king of turtles can do! If Lao Tzu sees someone doing this, it won't be a matter of whipping forty lashes, Lao Tzu must beat him to death! The Colonel warned viciously, throwing the poplar plank to the ground.

Qingmo looked at it for a while, and didn't feel any difference between the two planks, he squeezed out of the crowd, caught up with Li Mao, and asked: "This guy Qiu Ba is making bullish energy again, poplar wood, pine wood, but it is made of pressure plates, not coffin boards, as for the buckle is so ruthless?" Everything pays attention to what is refined, this is the construction of the city, this is clearly embroidery. ”

Li Mao scolded with a smile: "Don't be verbose, this is a military city, the difference on the battlefield is a fraction of a second, and life and death are judged, how can you be careless and cautious?" This is what makes General Yu admirable, he would rather spend more money and effort than let his subordinates lose their lives, the ancients used the love of soldiers like sons to describe the general who is good at war, isn't this the truth? ”

Qingmo pondered for a moment and said, "That's the same, you don't treat me as a son...... Phew, Bah, Bah, I don't treat you as a son,...... Phew, phew, phew, General Yu doesn't treat you as a ...... Forget it, that's it, compare your heart to your heart, if you are not good to me, why should I give you my life. Li Mao said: "It's good to know, profiteers hurt people and deserve to be whipped." ”

At the beginning of July, Li Shigu ordered four elders of the Moqi tribe including Mo Dahua to be escorted to Yunzhou to discuss the crime, and Jia Zhiyan, a staff officer of the festival, took the government affairs of Wu County.

After entering the summer, heavy rain falls in Chengwu County, the mountains and rivers and canals are all filled with rainwater, the grass lake that was originally barren and grassy is now a vast ocean, the white and vast can not see the edge at a glance, three temporary wharves are newly set up near the side of the military city, unloading loess, green bricks and timber respectively.

The wharves for unloading timber and green bricks are orderly, while the wharves for unloading loess are crowded in a chaotic manner. The rain is heavy, the water surface of the grass lake is open, and the dozen or so rivers of all sizes are also filled with water, and it is very convenient to sail, and the boats that come to deliver the loess form a long queue, and sometimes it even takes a day or two to unload a boatload of soil.

Although the loess is bulky, but the cost is very low, the green bricks are good, the wood is good, after all, there is a cost in, loess, because it is needed to build a military city, the local government does not dare to set up a card to collect taxes, all the way unimpeded, the cost is just labor and freight, after the summer rain, the land can not be cultivated, the people of the four townships have nothing to do, the labor cost is negligible, the ship is also their own, and the freight is also very low.

The wall with loess cement is a temporary addition project after the start of the project, the required loess can only be purchased from other places in the local area, the grass lake dries up in early spring, only a number of small rivers are navigable, it is very inconvenient to walk, in order to attract people from all over the country to send soil, the clerk sets a high price of two buckets of rice per boat of soil, so as to attract the people to come to send soil without refusing hardship.

After the summer, the lake suddenly opened up, and the navigation became smooth, but the price of the land was still the original price, not that the clerk reacted half a beat slower than others, he thought about it, and he didn't dare to do it. Su Xiaodu's geographical remoteness, inconvenient floods and droughts, relying on the government to organize the people's strength or the army to procure the cost is too great, how to attract the people to send materials, in addition to the higher bid, there must be a letter, no letter is not established, the government decree is changed day and night, the people have no sense of security, who dares to take the risk to run so far to send materials?

The clerk did not dare to revise the price for fear of losing his trust, which could ensure that there was enough cement available for the construction of the city, but it also greatly increased the construction cost. Moreover, because the use of cement was a temporary addition of Yu Hualong after the start of the project, there was no such budget in the plan originally submitted to Yunzhou and the Ministry of Industry, and Yunzhou still allocated the siege money according to the original project payment schedule. Although this matter has been fought for and has been approved by Li Shigu and the city construction strategy and budget are being revised, such a large project is not an overnight effort, and a process is required.

Qingmo lamented: "The rice and noodles of Baihuahua have been replaced with loess, but the people who work are not full of food and clothing, what is this called." It is true to love soldiers like children, and it is also true to treat the people like mustard. ”

Li Mao smiled helplessly, Qingmo's words were exactly what he wanted to say, Yu Hualong really had nothing to say to his subordinate brothers, but it was a completely different attitude towards outsiders, especially ordinary people. Because of the shortage of project funds, the quality of the laborers' three meals a day is declining sharply, and under the torture of high-intensity physical labor, people continue to be injured and sick.

"Two buckets of rice and a boat of soil, two buckets of rice and a boatload of soil......" Li Mao looked at the earth-carrying boats that were shuttling on the lake, suddenly slapped his thigh, turned around and ran towards Xinchengying.

"Hey, where are you going?" Qingmo shouted, but Li Mao did not respond.

Wen Cheng sat in the damp and messy camp tent, although the weather was cool and made people feel cold, but Wen Cheng still had beads of sweat on his forehead, he was nervous, Yunzhou's money flowed unhurriedly like fine water, but his side was like a broken embankment, bubbling out, couldn't stand it, really couldn't stand it, full of calculations, careful calculations, how to calculate can only be maintained until ten days later, what to do after ten days, according to the current speed of appropriation, the whole project is afraid to stop.

Thinking of the stoppage, the green tendons on the forehead of the clerk jumped again and again, it was really terrible, and it was really unclear how many moths would be born in Yunzhou at that point, and whether it would stop funding because of this, or reassign the construction envoy to supervise the construction of the new city.

The construction of the new city must not allow Yunzhou to interfere, this is the bottom line set by Yu Hualong early on, and it must not be touched.

"What should I do, it's hard for a good woman to cook without rice." The clerk smiled bitterly and rubbed his hands, helpless.

Just at this moment, his eyes darkened, and a tall and sturdy figure appeared at the door of the tent, "Maohua, it's you, I haven't seen you for a few days, what are you busy with?" After getting acquainted, the two have many common hobbies with each other, such as both love boating and fishing, both love to drink a little wine in their spare time, and they both love to go out hunting on moonlit nights.
