Abu, who is in Hengzhou, has also been very busy these days, not only responsible for raising a large amount of funds in the early stage, but also responsible for the construction and commissioning of the steam engines in the two cement factories that will be launched.

Although there is experience in the early stage, many processes and processes still need to be checked personally, after all, only the production of steam engines can greatly save manpower and improve production capacity.

Lu Gang has changed from a personal guard to a big boss of a cement factory that is about to start. There is no way, the needs of the revolution, let us do whatever we want. But I've learned a lot from Abu these days.

And Zhang Caier has become Abu's financial assistant and personal maid from the owner of the Hengzhou branch, not only to help Abu take care of the funds raised and operated in various places, but also to ensure Abu's daily life.

At first, Abu was a little reluctant to go, not to mention that the other party was the nominal owner of the local Abu branch, but also a vigorous and charming girl, and she had not enjoyed such treatment over the years.

So Abu said to Zhang Cai'er: "Usually these chores, let me do it myself, I am also a person with hands and feet, you don't have to treat me as a sick and disabled person, and you are also the manager of our hotel, you come to help me carry water and fold quilts all day long like a girl, this kind of appearance should be seen by other clerks, it will damage your face and reputation." ”

Zhang Cai'er glared at the apricot and retorted: "You are my husband, I bring water, hand over food or something, shouldn't I?" I'm happy to do these things, and I want to see who dares to chew his tongue in private, and see how I clean him up. "It's completely a domineering female president!

Abu was actually a little awkward when he heard Zhang Cai'er's words, because the word "sir" had another meaning in later generations, but where could he say it.

After a long time, under Zhang Cai'er's slightly aggressive careful care, Abu's daily life was a little inseparable from her, and she needed to call Zhang Cai'er for help when she was looking for anything, and this girl was also happy, and in the end Abu had to give in and go with her.

It should be said that the two are of the same age, Abu is not a few years older than Zhang Caier, there is such a charming and lovely, beautiful woman like a big girl waiting before and after, Abu doesn't know how dark and refreshing it is, his food and clothing are cleaned up by Zhang Caier in an orderly manner, and every time Abu goes out, she is also dressed up neatly and energetically.

In the end, Abu can only sigh that he has also become depraved, "From thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift", this sentence is really a wise saying!

Abu and Lu Gang together on this day, the two newly manufactured steam engines were put into operation, and the newly put into operation of the cement plant was about to start soon, with the experience in the valley, both the manufacture of the steam engine and the construction of the blast furnace were very smooth.

Although it is now about to enter the busy farming season, under the stimulation of high remuneration, the labor force is still very sufficient, plus Lu Gang, the big boss, regulates the workers' food quite well, and there is no other place where the problem of bullying men and women and deducting money and goods occurs, and the big guys are working hard.

It was almost noon, and the two of them were ready to return to the hotel, during which a lot of hard work was carried out by the workers, but Abu still had to climb up and down to check the details, and his body was dirty and embarrassed; Lu Gang gave him a hand, but he couldn't get any better, his face was black and white.

Looking at each other's grizzled faces, the two laughed for a while, and Lu Gang said to Abu: "Sir, why don't we find a bathhouse, wash it and go back!" If the two of us go back with this ghost, Miss Cai'er doesn't know how to complain about me, why didn't I find out that Zhang Cai'er's eloquence was so powerful before, and she taught people a lesson, and her mouth was full of knives. ”

Abuhaha laughed and said, "Our family runs a hotel, do we have to go elsewhere to take a bath?" Let's go, the clothes are dirty, which means that the two of us have indeed worked hard, how can she manage so much? ”

Lu Gang hugged and said, "Sir, don't you know, Cai'er is much more in charge than Shiniang, she feels like your personal nanny, just because your shoes were stained with mud last time, she counted me down for a long time." ”

Abu said: "No, walking in this place every day, where can you not get a little mud?" ”

"Yes, that's how I explained it, I said that the environment on the mine is inherently harsh, and it's normal for shoes to have mud. She said that Mr. Bai taught you that there is mud in front, and you have to find a way to fill it; If it can't be filled, then you should lie on the ground and let the gentleman step on it.

I was speechless. I don't even dare to see her now, as if I had done something terrible. ”

Abu patted him and said sympathetically: "Hehe, maybe this is a problem she has developed in managing the Hengzhou branch for a long time, and she has taught you a lesson." Don't worry about her, let's go back and take a good soap bath, and then sleep comfortably, not to mention how beautiful it is. Let me tell you, the bathhouse where you can bathe with soap is probably the only one in this place. ”

Hearing Abu say this, Lu Gang seriously agreed, so he no longer insisted, and the two got on the horse and ran to the hotel.

When he arrived in the courtyard, someone naturally led the horse over, and seeing the crowds and noises in the hall on the first floor, Abu asked curiously, "What's going on?" ”

A young man next to him ran over and replied with a smile: "Sir, Song Fu, the chief butler of Lord Assassin Shi, has brought a group of people, saying that they are all building masters recruited from all over the country, and they are waiting for you in the hall." ”

As soon as Abu heard it, it was clear that in the early days, Song Qian had already distributed his subordinates, posted notices everywhere, recruited skilled craftsmen in construction, and also announced that he had new materials for construction in his hands, and for a while, craftsmen from all over the country came to hear the news.

After all, as a parent official in Hengzhou, his ability is still relatively large, and this time he can let Song Fu personally accompany him, and it is estimated that the level of the craftsman who came is still quite good, so he did not go in directly, but was going to change his clothes first.

As for classmate Lu Gang, he slipped away directly as soon as he entered the courtyard, it seems that he is really a little afraid of Zhang Caier's knife mouth.

It just so happened that at this time, Zhang Cai'er flashed out of the door, and when she saw Abu's appearance, she couldn't help but complain to Abu again. While helping Abu change his hair in the backyard, she helped Abu wash his hair while giving a general introduction to Abu about the people in the front yard, and it is said that there are several craftsmen who have a very high status in the domestic construction industry. Abu enjoyed her gentle service while digesting the message conveyed by Zhang Cai'er.

After cleaning, Abu looked at Zhang Cai'er who carefully helped him take care of herself, her hair was coiled high, held behind her head, and fixed with a step shake, which was adorned with a few crystal clear beads, and kept shaking with her movements, she was wearing a red brocade shirt on her upper body, and a short skirt on her lower body, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were clear and her lips were red, outlining the beautiful and delicate curves of a young girl.

Abu's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, and he felt a feeling of thirst in his mouth, he no longer dared to look at Zhang Cai'er's delicate face that was clearly visible under the sun, and hurriedly separated his heart with other words, he knew that he had been away from Yun Niang for a long time, and seeing such a beautiful and lovely woman, his body had a primitive physiological reaction.

Zhang Cai'er carefully circled Abu again, and saw that there was nothing wrong, so she let Abu go to the front yard.

Abu's arrival did not attract much attention from the people in the hall, and one or two people looked up, and each of them bowed his head to eat, drink, or talk. This has something to do with Abu's low-key style, and although he's been here for a long time, no one has paid attention to him except for the store staff.

Zhang Caier had already told him about the situation before, and he knew that the dozen or so people gathered around the big table should be the builders recruited from all over the country as described by Zhang Caier.

When he walked towards the big round table, a middle-aged man in a soapy coat and a brown hat saw Abu first, and hurriedly stood up, folded his hands and bent down to Abu Shili and said, "Song Fu has seen Abu Houye, and all of you here are all the builders from all over the country that my family has done everything possible.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Marquis of Abu that we want to visit, and it is also the big financier of our bridges built everywhere in Hengzhou this time, let's get to know each other. ”

Everyone stood up and saluted Abu, who smiled and returned the salute, and then sat down again.

Abu knew that this Song Fu, who was rich and smiling all day long, was a senior staff member around Song Qian, the assassin of Hengzhou, and was also the chief butler of the Song Mansion. He was directly responsible for the related matters of these builders, and also fully expressed Song Qian's attention and expectations for this bridge-building activity.

Next, Song Fu first introduced the red-clothed brocade-robed old man who was sitting in the upper hand position just now to Abu.

This old gentleman named Yuwenbo comes from the Yuwen family, which is famous for its architecture, and his ancestors were responsible for the design and construction of Chang'an in Xijing and Luoyang in the east.

As large as the city planning, as small as the layout of the pavilion and hall, the ring is interlocking, the magnificent atmosphere, and at the same time, the building orientation should be celestial, and the location is advantageous, all of which are commendable.

I don't know what kind of energy Song Qian used to invite such a character, maybe there is something that can attract them in such a trivial matter as building a bridge in Hengzhou.

Mr. Yuwen was very kind, and said to Abu with a smile: "Lord Hou dares to seek benefits for the people, and he is not a good man who stands up to the sky. If the Hou Ye needs any help, just bring it up, and the old man should do his best. ”
