"Alright, jump in for me!"

Poorly dressed craftsmen, look at me, I look at you, looking at each other and not knowing what to do.

Someone said boldly: "Xiao Langjun, if it is freezing today, there must be a reason..."

"Didn't you hear what Ma Ji said? Don't jump in yet! Horses have their own reasons! ”

With a flamboyant voice and a tone that could not be denied, Ma Yanmeng almost couldn't open his eyes when he turned around.

Brocade clothes and jade belts, gold thread embellishments on the crown of the head, and jade pendants on the waist swaying and shining while walking, if it weren't for the narrow eyes that ruined the beauty of the face, it would definitely deserve the title of jade-faced Langjun!

There was also a man dressed as a military general, dressed in a simple lineage, standing beside this brocade-clothed gentleman with a slight hunched waist.

Or because this Lang Jun's aura is too strong, the craftsmen finally began to take the lead in jumping into the river, but this time Ma Jian was in a hurry:

"Oh, you take off your clothes and go down again, wash your bodies, and come up quickly! Don't go down into the river with your clothes closed! ”

Saying that, Ma Jian hurriedly instructed his entourage from Yicheng: quickly find some firewood and make a fire.

After a while, he turned around and squinted at the visitor again: "The two of you are ......"

"Mi Fang, Zi Fang, Brother Mi Zizhong." Jinyi Mi Fang warmly grabbed Ma Yan's hand and shook it, and introduced another one dressed as a general:

"This is Fu Shiren, the word Junyi, the current public security thief Cao."

"I waited for the two of them to hear the name of Ma Zhi for a long time, and I heard that Brother Ji Chang had returned to Yicheng, but Ma Zhi did not follow, so I came to look for Ma Zhi to play together."

At this time, the two of them also looked at each other, Mi Fang smiled sincerely, and Fu Shiren straightened his back a lot in the face of Ma Yan.

As soon as he took office, he was engaged, and the so-called porter humiliation was more like grace in Mi Fang's eyes, and his brother-in-law and the new army division were clear to Mi Fang, so Mi Fang deliberately pulled his friends and rushed to woo him.

It's just that it's doomed to disappointment.

"I have no time to play on official business, and the two of you are at your own convenience." Ma Yan looked at it fixedly, glanced at a stiff smile, and then turned around and shouted loudly to the craftsmen who had washed and gone ashore to come and warm themselves by the fire.

The two are just hard-working fortunate ministers, Ma Jian commented in his heart.

"Gather two more piles of firewood...... Forget it, I'll go with you! ”

It took a while to build a few bonfires, and Ma Tan stood in the middle and explained aloud to the group of craftsmen who were drying their clothes and bodies:

"Liu Jingzhou Gaoyi wants to open a few new workshops in this public security! You have to recruit a lot of craftsmen, and you can still get money for food, food, housing, and housing! ”

"Liu Jingzhou also specially invited Zhang Zhongjing and Zhang Shenyi! The divine doctor ordered that you have to wash yourself before entering the public security county! ”

"After all, we came from Jianghuai over the mountains, there is miasma in the mountains, and there are people dying on the road, so we must be just in case!"

A craftsman said boldly: "Xiao Langjun, if you say this earlier, wouldn't it be good if you washed yourself before we came, just now I thought that Langjun was going to deliberately make fun of me......"

Ma Jian snorted angrily and did not speak, and led a group of clean, dry and refreshing craftsmen to enter from the west gate of Gong'an County, and along the way Ma Jian gave them instructions:

"There's a new blacksmith over there...... The blacksmith can go over, go in and say that he is looking for Sun Dongjia, and then he will try his skills, and he will stay if he is qualified. ”

"Sun Dongjia has a quick temper, but people are very good, if they are insulted, there must be a reason, and they must not abuse each other with Sun Dongjia."

Walking a little further down the street, there was a small plot of land to the east of the county hall where the foundations and stakes had been laid, and several craftsmen were deliberating around a scribe.

Ma Tan pointed and said, "That's Sun Cheng... is better than me, now all carpenters in Gong'an County are supervised by Sun, and those who know carpenter skills can go directly to him. ”

Then he earnestly advised: "Sun Zhi is very good at talking, but you must not be slack off because of this, Sun Zhi has followed Liu Jingzhou for ten years." ”

Further on, the intersection went south all the way out of the city, and soon the Hudu River was close in sight, a clearing by the river had been cleared, and a row of wooden stakes were driven by the river.

"Horse engagement, what is going to be done here?"

"That..."Ma Tan's eyes became confused: "The military advisor said that this is the power of science and technology...... In short, when it is completed, it must be very magical, and the open space by the river is the paper mill after that, and we want to make Zuobo paper. ”

The remaining craftsmen looked at each other, but there was still a swarthy craftsman who said carefully: "Ma Zhi, what is that Zuo Bo paper?" ”

He sent a few papermakers back to his place of residence in the west of the city, and when he went home, he passed by the back door of the county government and found that there was a stall here, and there was a long queue in front of the stall.

"What is this doing?" Ma Tan grabbed a little fat man with a happy look on his face and asked.

"This is Doctor Zhang handing out Tu Su wine! It is said that drinking it can strengthen the body, dispel diseases and prevent plague! If you want Lang Jun, go to the queue quickly, but when I got it just now, I saw that there wasn't much left. ”

Ma Yan was dumbfounded, this Doctor Zhang was really enthusiastic, as for Tu Su's wine, he had already drunk it when he was invited to the main banquet in the morning.

It's better to drink Chinese medicine directly, this is Ma Yan's evaluation.

The bulletin board next to the county hall was also crowded with many people, and someone was reading aloud:

"In the past year, Liu Jingzhou and Sun Hou have repelled the Cao thief, but they have also sacrificed a lot, and many people have waded through mountains and rivers from Jianghuai, and many people have died of illness on the road, so the Shangyuanjie county government paid for the mage to be the master!"

"Expel the disease, drive out the evil spirits, calm the soul, and pray for peace!"

After hearing this, the onlookers cheered: "Liu Jingzhou is benevolent!" ”

After cheering, some people cried in a low voice, as if they remembered their relatives who died this year, and others supported and comforted softly.

Ma Jian sighed, and suddenly remembered the words of the lord in the morning.

"Let's do it together!"

Can this great cause settle the world?

…………

In the study, cut off the wick again, and Liu Bei continued to write by the bean-sized lamplight.

The letterhead was marked with a few big words: "Meng Qi personally opened." ”

This is the third letter Liu Bei wrote to Ma Chao recently.

Therefore, the journey from Jingzhou to Liangzhou is long, and Liu Bei did not write too confidential content in the letter, but just talked about the situation in a very ordinary way, and praised Ma Chao's bravery.

After listening to the light curtain talk about Hanzhong, Liu Bei asked Jian Yong to find the latest information about Liangzhou, but he still regretted that he was a step late.

Last year, Ma Teng was already named the captain of the guard, his son Ma Xiu was named the captain of the car, and Ma Tie was the captain of the horse, and more than 200 members of the family entered the court as officials.

Ma Teng's entry into the dynasty is undoubtedly also a soft attitude towards Cao thieves, and Liangzhou has no worries for Cao thieves, so he is relieved to go south and was ...... by Zhou Gongjin

Zhou Gongjin! Liu Bei envied the Sun family for a while, and actually had such a person to help.

sighed again for a while: The New Year's Day has passed, Jiangdong Zhoulang, the death date is approaching!

But it is precisely because of this that Liu Bei made up his mind to go to Jiangdong.

Not for Sun Quan's sister, but for Nanjun!
