After the three of them returned to the city, Cao Pi found Cao Zhen and Su Zhen and asked, "Is there still a place to fire pottery in the city?" ”

Cao Zhen shook his head and said: "No, these big clans in the city are all outside the city, and General Wubao has already enclosed those earthen kilns, and Zhizhong has recruited a craftsman to prepare to fire some pottery for Tuntian." Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info?"

Cao Pi said: "Zidan, take me to see the earthen kilns, and continue to repair the houses in the city. ”

Cao Zhen immediately received the order, took the horses and followed Cao Pi and the three out of the city, and now the walls of the Tuyuan Fort and the manor have been almost demolished, and replaced by a wider wall that is being built, there are five such walls, apparently Yu Ban intends to build five tuntian here.

The four of them came to a wall that was being built, and now there are many houses in it, one of which occupies a large area, and there is a large chimney, obviously not a place for striking iron or firing pottery, the four of them immediately passed, and the head of the people who was supervising the work saw that someone was riding a horse and immediately stepped forward, because Cao Zhen was responsible for repairing the house that was established, and many building materials were removed from the outside of the Wu Fort and the general house of the manor and transported into the city. Do you want stone or wood? ”

Cao Zhen arched his hand at Cao Pi and said, "Zhou Mu wants to see the earthen kiln. ”

When the head of the people heard the word Zhou Mu, he immediately made a move, and saluted Cao Pi in a panic, and then sent someone to lead the horse, and led the four people into the earthen kiln, only to hear the head of the people say: "The craftsman has not arrived, because he has not started work yet." ”

Cao Pi saw that there was still a lot of clay on the side of the kiln that had not had time to be fired, nodded and said, "Find a kettle." ”

The head of the people was stunned, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, and then hurried away, Cao Pi suddenly said to Niu Jin: "Let all the people leave, and then go to the head of the people, let him not report it, and tell General Wen Ze that we are here." ”

Niu Jin immediately waved away all the people who were waiting, and then left the earthen kiln with him. After a while, Niu Jin came back with the head of the people, still carrying an old cauldron in his hand, and Cao Pi then said to Cao Zhen and Niu Jin and the head of the people: "Find a stone to build a stove." ”

The three of them immediately copied, and Cao Zhen glanced at Zhong Changtong, who was standing aside, and asked, "Brother, why doesn't this person use a stove?" ”

Cao Pi smiled, looked at Zhong Changtong's eyes, Zhong Changtong smiled, rolled up his sleeves and went with them to find a stone to build a stove, which made Cao Pi have more good feelings for him, indicating that this person's emotional intelligence is still saved.

After a while, the four of them set up the stove and set up the kettle on it, and Cao Pi immediately asked the head of the people to make a fire, and then asked the head of the people to leave, and then asked Niu Jin to throw the stones he had picked up outside the city into the kettle.

Until this moment, everyone didn't know what Cao Pi was going to do, but they only heard Cao Pi say: "Look at the ignition, don't melt the cauldron." ”

Niu Jinshen was naturally more proficient in the military, and immediately stepped forward to control the fire, Cao Zhen couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what are you doing?" Boiled stones? ”

Cao Pi smiled: "I'll know in an hour." ”

Cao Zhen shouted, "An hour? Are we all here? ”

Cao Pi smiled: "Exactly." ”

Cao Zhen sighed: "Anyway, building a house in the city is really boring, and it is no different from this." ”

After an hour, Cao Pi asked Niu Jin to extinguish the fire, and then drove the kettle with a sheathed ring knife to turn the kettle mouth down, and a pile of blue-white sand and gravel fell from the kettle brush between them, Cao Zhenqi said: "Can this stone also be boiled?" ”

Cao Pi smiled but did not answer, grabbed a handful of sand and stones, then walked to the clay, grabbed the clay with his other hand, grabbed some fine sand from the ground and mixed it together, and then asked Niu Jin to put away the remaining blue and white sand and stones, and then said to Zhong Changtong: "The axiom can make people stir up this pile of earth and stone repeatedly, and beat it, and the thing that is made after five days is a miracle." ”

Zhong Changtong was skeptical, but when he saw that Cao Pi could boil the stone into sand, he already believed it, so he said: "Can all the people here use it?" ”

Cao Pi smiled and said: "You are Bo Cao, how can you not use it?" After speaking, he drifted away, and Niu Jin Cao Zhenhe followed.

On the way back to the city, Cao Zhen suddenly said: "Brother, this person's character is axioms, could it be Zhong Changtong, Zhong Gongtong, a native of Gaoping, Shanyang County, Yanzhou?" ”

Cao Pi was surprised and asked, "Zidan actually knows this person?" ”

Cao Zhen said with a smile: "There are really not many people in this land of Yuzhou and Yanzhou who don't know this person's reputation, and my brother is one of them." This person has been famous since he was a child, and he is good at writing, but he is upright by nature, not subtle, and dares to speak out, and because of his sharp words, he is quite disliked, especially his set of theories about controlling chaos is difficult to disagree. ”

Cao Piqi said: "The theory of chaos? ”

Cao Zhen said with a smile: "This person once said: "The foolish master of his heir, seeing that the world does not dare to disobey him, claims that if the heaven and the earth are inperishable; It is to run for its selfish desires, to promote its evil desires, for kings and ministers to prostitute themselves, and to do evil from top to bottom; Abandoned government, abandoned characters, resentful and boring, disasters and chaos, China was disturbed, the four Yi invaded and rebelled, collapsed, and disappeared in one day. The foundation of the world's chaos is nothing more than the three reasons of the faint king, the mediocre ministers, and the chaotic people, and it has nothing to do with the mandate of heaven. ”

Cao Pi said with a smile: "This person likes to tell the truth, the rise and fall of the world is indeed man-made, and it has nothing to do with the way of heaven, and Zhang Jiao's sentence 'the sky is dead' has not helped him calm the world." ”

Cao Zhenqi said: "Brother will actually agree with this person's words? What about the pre-agricultural arts? ”

Cao Pi smiled and said: "Favored by heaven, it may not be the way of heaven, the world's dynasties are all established by people, if it is not popular with the people, even if there is more rice, what is the use?" ”

Cao Zhen asked: "Isn't there a world if there is food?" Now the people of Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Sili who don't regard their brother as a celestial man? ”

Cao Pi said with a smile: "Then in the future, Brother Wu Chong will also be their celestial man, as long as those who master this technique can make the people not lack food, but there is only one in the world, who should I give it to?" ”

Cao Zhen was speechless, shook his head and no longer dwelled on this question, pointed to Niu Jin's quiver and said, "What is this sand and gravel?" Why does my brother value it so much? ”

Cao Pi looked at Cao Zhen's horse and asked, "Brother Xian, isn't this horse your usual mount?" ”

Cao Zhen replied: "My mount is used for marching and fighting, so I naturally found an old horse casually to do chores, and this horse can walk around the city, and I can't even do it as a pack horse." ”

Cao Pi smiled and said, "It's just right, brother Xian, please get off the horse." After speaking, Le Ma stopped, and asked Niu Jin to take a handful of blue and white sand and gravel to himself, and after Cao Zhen got off the horse, Cao Pi took the sand and gravel in his hand and hit Cao Zhen's mount. 8
