Han Xiang

Chapter 261 Mi Heng seeks an official
The plan offered by Jia Xu is an unsolvable conspiracy.

Regardless of whether Long Xiang accepts the edict or not, it is Long Xiang himself who is in trouble.

When Liu Fu and Qin Yi were preparing to drive in the guard of honor, Long Xiang was still in the dark and didn't know it.

The construction of Hefei New City is in full swing. According to the plan, the city wall will be erected in the middle and late June. Long Xiang has already begun to plan the enclosure inside the city wall.

The scale of the new city is five times larger than that of the existing old city. The city is full of crops at this time. For a long time, the property of the cultivated land will remain unchanged. Even if there is a war, there is no fear of food shortages.

Long Xiang comes from the future world and has insights into urban planning and layout. He believes that the inner city can be built slowly, but it must be kept neat and beautiful. The layout of residential areas, military and administrative offices, and craftsman workshop areas must be reasonable.

If the capacity of the cement plant is sufficient, Longchamp also plans to harden the roads in the new city, but those good ideas are for later.

Hefei is located in the hub of the Jianghuai River, and will soon have conflicts with Cao Cao, and may also have conflicts with Jiangdong. Long Xiang does not dare to hope that there will be a stable development in [-] years, but he still has to finalize the planning plan.

As the saying goes, dripping water wears away a stone, what if it can be realized?

When Long Xiang was investigating outside the city, Lu Su suddenly sent someone to invite him back to the city, saying that there was something urgent to discuss.

The most urgent thing right now is to help Liu Bei contain Cao Cao. Long Xiang mistakenly thought there was a situation in Runan, so he told his brother-in-law Qiao Ni, "The soil under our feet is the main material for making bricks and cement. No matter how much you do Let’s take a look around, and then set the landmarks by piling, and when the outer wall of the new city is erected, we will build brick factories, cement factories, etc. nearby.”

"factory?"

Qiao Nu scratched his head to express his doubts, he had never heard of this term.

Seeing this, Long Xiang nodded in embarrassment, and burst out a modern term in a hurry. He has invented many new words in the field of architecture. Although Qiao Yi is not surprised, he still has an expression of asking for advice.

"The factory is a big workshop. The scale of the new city is so huge. If there are still small workshops all over the place, it will be difficult to manage. So I changed the name. When the outer city wall is completed in the middle of the year, the construction speed in the city will slow down, mainly to build a cement factory. At that time, the third brother will not have to stare at the construction, but he can accompany grandma to fulfill his filial piety, or let you practice as a factory manager?"

"Factory manager? Okay."

Qiao Ni thought that this new official position sounded good, so he agreed without hesitation. He thought that he had no ability to manage the army, and if he made achievements in internal affairs, he could also earn some face for the Qiao family.

Besides, brother-in-law can cheat younger brother?That is absolutely impossible, and neither sister can agree.

Afraid of Long Xiang's repentance, Qiao Nu immediately urged him to go back to the city: "Brother-in-law, Mr. Lu must have something important to do with you. Let me find the address of the factory and let me handle it. It must be done properly."

"Alright."

Long Xiang nodded with satisfaction, left Lei Xu where he was to help, and rode back to the old city near the river by himself.

Riding horses to the Colonel's Mansion, Long Xiang was surprised to find that Lu Su was waiting at the door, and came down the steps to meet him.

What's the rush?Long Xiang turned over on his saddle and jumped off.

"Zijing has always been calm, why is he so anxious today? Is it the news from the king? Or is Cao Cao's main force going south?"

"neither"

Lu Su frowned and shook his head, approaching Long Xiang and whispering in a low voice: "It's You Zhengping who came to ask for an official. After I declined several times, he came directly to the Colonel's Mansion and is waiting in the main hall in the vestibule right now."

"You Heng? Do you remember that he has been out of the kiln for more than a month? He hasn't left Hefei yet?" Long Xiang looked surprised.

Lu Su smiled wryly: "Not only did he not leave, he also went to the Yamen to apply for an ID number, and he wants to become an official resident of Hefei."

"If he wants it, he'll give it." Long Xiang didn't think so, and explained: "Normally, he can give it in three months. At least he has done hard work for half a year, and he can do heavy work such as moving bricks and building cities in the first three months. He worked much harder than that Liu Fu."

"But the identity number needs to determine the occupation. I don't know what to assign to him."

Seeing Lu Su's troubled expression, Long Xiangai asked curiously: "You Heng has no relatives and no reason in Hefei, what has he been living on for more than a month?"

Lu Su sighed: "It seems that working as a small worker in various workshops and construction sites can solve the problem of food and clothing."

Long Xiang was very surprised when he heard this, and thought that although Mi Heng has a broken mouth, he can take off his long gown to do rough work, and although his personality is wild and free and easy, he is not a pretentious person.

"If you can't, then you will be a craftsman?"

Lu Su shook his head after listening to the proposal: "You Zhengping is a celebrity after all, half a year of hard work is enough punishment, don't forget that you are not just representing a person, you will always reveal your relationship with the emperor's uncle in the future. Uncle Huang is causing trouble."

Long Xiang frowned and asked, "Then what should we do? This person has a particularly aloof personality. If he stays in Hefei as an official, wouldn't it be torture to his colleagues?"

"Who says no?" Lu Su's face was full of bitterness: "I wanted to ask him to leave euphemistically, regardless of Jiangdong or the Central Plains, I am willing to subsidize his troubles, but you Zhengping seems to have taken a fancy to Hefei. I came here to recommend myself."

"Hello, Lu Zijing."

Long Xiang pointed at him and shook his head jokingly: "I heard that this person wrote a document. After Zi Yang went to Runan, is there no shortage of documents in the Registrar's Office?"

"No shortage. I can handle it"

Lu Su waved his hands straight after hearing this, he didn't want the harmonious situation of the master's mansion to be broken by Mi Heng just like that.

"You're giving me a problem." Long Xiang pinched his chin and thought for a while, pointing to the door of the mansion to signal Lu Su and said: "Let's go, go and meet him for a while, we can't let people block the door."

"Ah."

Then the two entered the mansion side by side, and Long Xiang saw a person standing at the gate of the main hall from a distance in the courtyard, needless to say, he knew it was Mi Heng.

Mi Heng has been in Hefei for more than half a year. At this time, the clothes on his body are worn out, but he still stands upright and firm, like a soldier on guard.

"Mr. You, please be safe."

"The general is still in good spirits, Hefei has been governed in an orderly manner, and Long Qi has lived up to his reputation."

Long Xiang was already mentally prepared to be ridiculed, but he didn't want Mi Heng to be a rainbow fart when he met, thinking that this is still the troll he met last year?Is this a remodel or something?

Thinking of Liu Fu being sprayed thin, Long Xiang thought it was not that simple, I can't be fooled by your appearance.

"How do I know what governance is? This is all thanks to Lu Zijing. Sir, please speak in the hall."

Long Xiang used to transfer skills, and put all the credit on Lu Su, and then motioned for Ni Heng to enter the hall to talk, and said in his heart that since he is willing to talk, I will chat with you for two dollars.

Mi Heng glanced at Lu Su, stroked his beard and shook his head as he walked: "The general can fool outsiders, but he can't fool me, Mi Heng. I have moved bricks, beaten ashes, dug soil, and fired kilns in the past six months. I have met countless toiling people, and the answer they gave me is the most truthful, it is the general who feeds them, the general is a down-to-earth person, not a warlord for fame or profit.”

Long Xiang felt uncomfortable being praised by Mi Heng, so he stopped and looked back: "I like to listen to opinions, I don't like to listen to people's flattery, sir, what exactly do you want to do here today?"

Mi Heng raised three fingers: "I came here for three questions, please answer truthfully, the general, this is very important to me."

Long Xiang thought for a while, then waved his hand: "Sir, let's talk about it."

"Who does the general think Cao Cao is?"

After Mi Heng said, he looked at Long Xiang solemnly, Long Xiang blurted out without thinking: "If you say it big, you are a national thief, if you say it small, it is me who killed my father and enemy."

"Second question, does the general think that the current Han Dynasty can be saved? If the emperor is not controlled by Cao Cao, can he become a generation of Mingjun?"
