With a wise official like Chu Ze, Xishi will definitely take on a new look, and their bright future has come!

In the afternoon, the people living in these areas saw the workers erecting barriers in the streets, and immediately understood that the road renovation was about to be completed.

"The road will be closed overnight, it seems that the prince is decisive and fast!"

"Yes, it's a shame that Prince Chu found that our broken path here needs to be improved urgently, or we don't know when we will have to wait!"

"Yes, yes! With a good official like the prince who is diligent for the people, our days can be regarded as hopeful. ”

Everyone was excited about the changes in front of them.

In the early morning of the next day, many idle people took the initiative to come to the construction area to help the workers clean up the debris and garbage on the road and clear the obstacles for the paving of the new road.

A middle-aged man said loudly to a pile of garbage on the side of the road: "Come on, help me move this pile of rags and debris to the alley next door and put it for the time being, so as not to affect the construction!" ”

"Okay! It's coming, it's coming! Several young men came over to help.

"Ouch, Xiao Li, you're here to help?" The middle-aged man said with a smile when he saw the comer.

"Yes, uncle!" Xiao Li said with a smile: "I got up this morning thinking about coming to assist in the construction of the new road, and I am especially looking forward to it!" ”

"Haha, what a valuable enthusiastic young man!" Uncle praised: "With your participation, the project will progress quickly!" ”

"It should be, it should be!" Xiao Li said suddenly.

Not far away, several women were also sweeping up garbage on both sides of the road.

"I said let's help too, I feel honored to be able to do something for Xinlu!" One woman said.

"Yes, yes!" Another woman chimed in: "It's about our own well-being, we should take the initiative!" ”

A day later, the road reconstruction project officially began.

A large number of building materials were transported to the renovation area, and the mountains of sand and cement were dazzling.

Craftsmen changed into simple overalls and stood in an orderly manner on both sides of the previously broken and narrow dirt and stone roads with rudimentary shovels, hammers and other tools.

"Brothers, get ready to work!" The leader shouted the order.

"Yes!" The craftsmen responded in unison, raising their tools and starting to work.

"Click, click", many stone slabs that have fallen into disrepair have been pried up by craftsmen with iron rods, revealing the dusty earth underneath.

"Knock knock", they smashed the broken stone slab with a crude sledgehammer and threw it aside.

"Shovel all the dirt roads too!" The leader continued to command.

"Yes!" In response to the order, a group of strong workers raised their rudimentary shovels to "brush and brush" the dirt road.

"Shovel all the roads clean, and no gravel is left behind!" The head reminded on the side.

"Yes!" The craftsmen answered in unison and carefully cleaned the roadbed.

The people were skillful and soon cleared the crumbling dirt and stone roads, revealing the foundations underneath.

"Okay, the foundation is well handled! Now pour the grout! The leader nodded in satisfaction.

"Here, bring the cement slurry!" The leader shouted.

Several strong workers pushed large wooden barrels filled with cement slurry and dumped them down the neat edge of the construction site.

The leader looked at the gray-white slurry flowing out, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Use a flat pole to smooth out the slurry, and you can't leave gaps!" ”

"Yes!" The craftsmen acted quickly and carefully smoothed the cement slurry with scrapers, trowels and other tools to ensure that the road surface was smooth and seamless.

At this time, Chu Ze also came to the construction site and saw that the workers were laying the cement pavement in an orderly manner, so he couldn't help but nod approvingly: "It's progressing well, it seems that you are already familiar with the construction process." ”

"Thank you for the compliment!" The leader hurriedly saluted and said, "This construction experience is a lot richer, and we have learned a more effective way." ”

"Haha, then I'll be relieved." Chu Ze said with a smile.

The leader thought to himself: The prince came to the construction site to check, we must complete the task with quality and quantity, and we cannot let the prince down.

Fortunately, this construction has been mastered, and I believe that it will be completed on schedule, so that the prince can see our progress!

At this time, Zhao Si also stepped forward and said in a low voice: "The prince is wise and martial, the new things you advocate have made the people suddenly open!" With you in charge, the transformation will be completed smoothly! ”

Chu Ze smiled indifferently and said, "We have just started, and the road is long and difficult. In order for the people to truly live a good life, we need to work hard. ”

Zhao Si thought to himself: The prince is concise and to the point, and he is always so humble and low-key.

He regarded all the people as a family, and tried his best to make them live a good life.

Such a wise and martial prince who goes deep into the grassroots is really a rare encounter in a hundred years!

Chu Ze knew that it was not enough to build roads, but also to create jobs and promote culture, so that the people could be truly prosperous.

He thought to himself: "If we want to benefit the common people, we must think comprehensively and work hard for a long time. It is not enough to build roads and improve transportation, but also to work on education, health care and other areas so that people can live and work in peace and contentment. As the prince, I have an unshirkable responsibility, I must study hard, recruit wisdom, keep pace with the times, continue to reform and innovate, and lead the people to a brighter future. ”

At this time, some people gathered on the edge of the construction area to watch.

"Oops, I look experienced, and the pavement is much faster!" An old man sighed.

"yes, yes, twice as fast as last time!" Another chimed in: "It seems that everyone has grown a lot!" ”

"With the prince of Chu in charge, everything is fast and efficient!" A peddler smiled and said, "I can't wait to see the new cement avenue!" ”

"Haha, we'll be much better then!" The other laughed too.

"The prince of Chu is really like a god Pudu, so that we ordinary people can also live a good life!" An old man said with emotion.

"That's right! The prince of Chu is our great benefactor! ”

The hawker thought to himself: The prince personally came to inspect the construction site, which shows that he is still thinking about us small people when he is in ruins.

Such a diligent official for the people is really commendable!

With the prince in charge, I think our days will definitely be more and more prosperous!

The old man sighed in his heart: When I was young, I could only walk on narrow and broken dirt roads, stumbling, and finally walked to the city to do some small business in exchange for some money and food.

Now it's different, with the flat and spacious cement road, my business has improved, and I am not afraid of falling when I walk.

Thanks to the prince, he discovered the suffering of our common people and set out to improve the transportation.

Such a people-oriented official is really admirable!

Chu Ze heard the discussion of the people, and a warm current surged in his heart.

He knows he's moving in the right direction, and that's what his efforts are all about. (End of chapter)
