Lu Su was pleased to hear this, and pointed at Long Xiang and quipped: "You Zhengping, who even Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and the Sun brothers have a headache, was actually solved by you when he arrived in Hefei, and Yunqi really has a way."

"It's just luck," Long Xiang shook his head slightly.

Lu Su was noncommittal, and said with a melancholy face: "I think about how many people wanted to do but didn't dare to do what he did when he was naked, drumming and scolding Cao Cao, but he said that he worked and slept peacefully in Hefei, which is really a strange person."

"This place of peace is my hometown"

Long Xiang came out with a famous saying, and then sighed: "A person has been drifting outside for a long time, both physically and mentally tired, and he may just want to settle down, Hefei just satisfies him, so it comes naturally."

"This place of peace is my hometown?" When Lu Su heard the witty words, he couldn't help but boast: "Yunqi is really a wonderful person's witty words, if he was born in a peaceful and prosperous era, he would definitely be famous in Huainan."

Long Xiang smiled bitterly: "If you can't do things in a down-to-earth manner, it's useless to be famous in the world with splendid articles, isn't You Zhengping a clear example?"

Lu Su was sure, curious and asked, "Have you always put him in the craftsman's camp?"

"Not necessarily." Long Xiang frowned and shook his head: "His natural talent must be useful, you Zhengping is erudite and eloquent, and he may be useful in the future, but at present, the construction of the new city has a huge demand for materials, and I plan to expand the cement and brick kiln workshops, and I need capable people to participate in the management, which is also an opportunity for him to temper."

Lu Su heard a stirring spirit, and said seriously, "Born with talent, must be useful? Yunqi is another punch line, I'm going to go back and write it down."

"Uh, whatever" Long Xiang shook his head slightly, looked at Lu Su and asked, "Is there anything important today?" Accompany me to the craftsman's camp?"

"It's time to explain to Feng Dudu, let's go."

Long Xiang solved the trouble for Lu Su, and he had the right to act as if he had something to do at the moment, and the two then walked out of the captain's mansion side by side.

In fact, Lu Su's worries about Feng Zhong are more redundant, one is that Feng Zhong is Long Xiang's hardcore confidant, he manages You Heng more openly than Lu Su, and You Heng really wants to do something, and he will not spray people at will in the craftsman camp.

You Heng is like a master in the martial arts world, and if you look for someone to challenge, you will only pick a famous one, and you will not find a farmer in the field or a woodcutter in the mountains to compete in martial arts.

As Long Xiang expected, You Heng really calmed down when he arrived at the post, and after just one day of proficiency in the environment, he began to help Feng Zhong deal with the backlog of camp affairs.

The craftsman battalion is the largest and most complex department in the five camps in Hefei, there are thousands of craftsmen directly under the camp, as well as cement workshops, brick workshops and other building materials industries, personnel deployment between construction sites, fixed salaries of different craftsmen, overtime salaries, temporary salaries for small workers, material production control, etc., with a large number of documents and management work.

Feng Zhong has always adopted the military model, with fire and brigade as the grassroots units, and using a large number of grassroots officers to manage huge and complex affairs.

This kind of militarized management, when the work content is relatively simple, the efficiency is very high, but after the management content increases, there will always be redundant work deposited, and over time it will become a stubborn disease that is difficult to deal with.

Knowing that the craftsman camp was thriving, Long Xiang had a feeling of picking up a treasure, he was originally training his brother-in-law Qiao Ling, but he was too young to convince the public, and he didn't use ready-made ones at all.

As soon as the trouble of the craftsman battalion was dealt with, the cavalry battalion was also in trouble.

In mid-April, Long Xiang was working out construction drawings for the new cement plant, and Governor Cao Xing came to the door in a panic.

"Woe to you, General."

"Don't panic Cao Dudu, the sky can't fall, tell me what to say in advance."

The cavalry battalion is in charge of Hefei's intelligence, and the disaster in Cao Xing's mouth must be related to the outside, Long Xiang immediately put down the pen and paper and stood up, the main general must have the ability to appease the generals at a critical moment.

Cao Xuan clenched his fists and said: "Cao Cao sent the general Xiahoudun to lead thousands of troops into Shouchun to defend."

"Cao Cao sent troops to Shouchun, which was expected, what is there to panic about?" Long Xiao pursed his lips and said with a little playfulness: "This Xiahou is slightly mediocre, it seems that Cao Cao is against Huainan

Not enough attention."

Cao Xing swallowed his saliva and reminded Long Xiang: "The people of Hefei worship you very much, and your past achievements are often used to talk about it, then Liu Fu has been in Hefei for three months, maybe he has heard about the events of the year, maybe Cao Cao sent Xiahoudun to come on purpose, Xiahoudun wants to take revenge."

"Xiahoudun's martial arts, it's not like you haven't seen it, what are thousands of people enough to eat? Put your heart in your belly."

Long Xiang got up and stepped forward, patting Cao Xing's shoulder gently, as if telling the other party: You are my Long Xiang's person, Xiahou wants to take revenge, and my brother will support you.

"Hefei New City has not yet been built, if Xiahoudun leads troops to attack and harass" Cao Xing's words stopped abruptly in the middle of his words.

Long Xiang laughed loudly and said: "If Xiahou Dun really dares to attack and disturb, Zhang Duo will be his fate, and when the city wall of the new city is completed, I am not afraid that he will bring 50,000 troops, you let the dark sentry always pay attention to Shouchun's movements, and if it is really not good, you can use tactics to delay."

Cao Xuan nodded in affirmation, suddenly remembered something, and reminded urgently: "By the way, just yesterday morning, Shouchun rode out of the city with two hundred steps, this team of soldiers and horses with banners and grand guards of honor, it seems to be coming in the direction of General Ridge, do you think it should be from Hefei?"

Isn't that nonsense? If you don't come to Hefei, do you want to go to Lujiang?

Standard? Honor guard?

Long Xiang suddenly had a bad premonition, he rolled his eyes, stroked his palm and said: "It must be coming to Hefei, Shouchun will only take three or four days to Hefei, you let people closely monitor this team, I will immediately let Zhong Kang lead five hundred tiger guards to meet him."

"Yui."

Cao Xing's fists had not yet fallen, and he heard Long Xiang's new order.

"I don't know if these two hundred people are Xiahoudun's suspicious soldiers, you send a few more scouts to Shouchun, if there is any evil intentions in the follow-up, we can deal with it in time."

"Yui."

Long Xiang sent Cao Xuan out of the main hall, and instructed Cao Xuan to inform Lu Su of the news of Shouchun, and to arrive in two or three days before the mission arrived, and before that, it was necessary to discuss countermeasures.

When I walked out of the main hall, I found that the sun was almost setting in the west.

There was still an hour or two before it was completely dark, but Long Xiang was pretending to be in his heart at the moment, and he had no desire to continue drawing.

"Ahh

Long Xiang patted his lips and yawned, stretched out his sleeves and went to the back house.

Finally got off the morning shift, Long Xiang planned to accompany his newlywed wife, but when he returned to the back house, he saw no one around.

I asked the maid on duty, and I had to know that the two ladies and my aunt were in the garden pavilion outside the back house at the moment, cooking wine and chatting and enjoying the flowers.

Long Xiangxin said good guy, this seems to be the daily life of ancient celebrities, taking advantage of the spring to "make tea around the stove".

Walking through the corridor and walking into the garden, Long Xiang caught a glimpse of the golden light shining in the pavilion, and the afterglow of the sunset was falling on the small pavilion at the moment, the source of the golden light was the swaying steps on Qiao Wei and Qiao Wanyun's temples, and the mother and daughter chatted happily.

"Cooking wine during the day, youth as a companion, you are so comfortable."

Erqiao heard Long Xiang's voice, and at the same time got up and looked at the path of the garden gate, the sweet smiles of the two were more intoxicating than the sunset on the horizon.
