In the military camp, hundreds of soldiers stood exceptionally neatly.

Wang Ben stood at the front and loudly announced the purpose of calling them here.

The content is what Zhao Jun said just now.

Zhao Junmengyi and a very shocked Li Xin followed over to watch the excitement. Several people stood aside and watched quietly.

The soldiers were stunned after hearing the news.

At first, they thought they were going to be expelled from the team because of their old age.

I didn’t expect that there would be such a good thing as turning to work as a worker later.

"In the end, this selection is completely voluntary. If you don't have any objections, just go over there and sign up and get your thumbprint. If you still want to stay in the military, there's no problem."

After Wang Ben said the last words, he stepped back and allowed the soldiers to think.

Soon, someone was walking towards the people who signed up over there.

Lin Zhuang is a 50-year-old Qin man. One of his left arms is almost completely disabled. Even if he stays in the army, he only does logistical chores and can no longer go to the battlefield.

Originally, he thought that the deputy general wanted to kick him out this time before calling him.

Unexpectedly, it was the deputy general who was about to give him a hand.

He just looked at it and found that he was the most seriously injured among them. He didn't even know if he was qualified to come.

But now he is standing here.

Then there is nothing to hesitate about, with such good conditions.

What's more, he was originally from Xianyang, and his family was in a small county outside the city. If he could stay and become a worker, that would be the best thing.

I just don’t know if I can do it with only one arm.

He was the first to step out of the group, and everyone's eyes fell on him.

When the registration was completed and no one came to stop it, he knew it was done.

As he came out of the queue, many people gradually emerged from the team.

The soldiers present were not fools, and besides, they were almost the same age. Now that there was such a good opportunity, it would be a fool not to seize it.

As a result, more and more people signed up in the team.

By the end, more than 300 of the 280 people had signed up.

"Sir, these people have been selected, you will see later."

Wang Ben showed the list to Zhao Jun.

She stood nearby and watched the whole process.

"it is good."

Zhao Jun nodded and then glanced at Meng Yi.

"Meng Yi, these are yours now, take them away."

She smiled and shook her head at Meng Yi beside her.

"Sir, please say goodbye for now. Please give me instructions first. Otherwise, I don't know where to take so many people. They can't all be crammed into our Coal Mansion."

Meng Yi waved his hand and shook his head.

"In this case, General Wang Ben, these people may also have things to pack. Tomorrow afternoon, Meng Yi will bring someone to pick them up. Please inform them."

Wang Ben nodded and greeted the group of soldiers, and the crowd quickly dispersed in an orderly manner.

I was just so nervous when I came, but so happy when I left.

"General Wang Ben, I'm really bothering you today. Since the people have been selected, we have to leave first. We have something to do later."

Wang Ben understood and quickly took them back.

The two of them walked through the door of Wang's house. Just as Meng Yi was about to suggest whether he should go to Meng's house to rest for a while, he was dragged away by Zhao Jun again.

But luckily, this time we were riding in a carriage.

"Sir, where are we going?"

Meng Yi looked outside. This seemed to be the direction out of the city.

"You just asked me where to put it. Why don't I take you to see it now?"

Zhao Junbai glanced at him and then stopped talking, closing his eyes to rest.

Meng Yi shut up knowingly.

When the carriage stopped, he realized where this place was. "Recently, news has begun to spread in Xianyang that we are looking for talented people to study at Xianyang University."

"It is also known as the only higher education institution founded by the Qin State after the primary school. It has many famous teachers and will even surpass Jixia Academy in the future."

“This is where the college of the university is.”

Meng Yi stood at the door and sighed for a long time.

This college is really beautifully constructed.

First of all, there is a huge wall outside, but the main entrance is wide open, so that people can see the buildings inside from the gate at a glance.

Looking in from the gate, there is a bronze pillar standing straight in the middle, with some faint bumps and convexities on it, as if there are words engraved on it.

Nothing can be seen further in.

Meng Yi couldn't help but take a closer look inside.

But Zhao Jun pulled him back ruthlessly.

"If you want to see it, I'll invite you to come and see it on the official opening day, but I'm going to get down to business now."

Zhao Jun pulled him away from the college gate and walked several hundred meters in the opposite direction. He didn't stop until he could see the shadow of the gate in the distance.

"That's it."

Zhao Jun raised his foot and stamped the ground under his feet, looked around, then looked at the distance from the academy, and nodded with satisfaction.

"At this?"

Meng Yi looked around. How could he build a road here in the middle of nowhere?

"Okay, this is it. You can bring people here tomorrow, set up camp, and prepare to lay the track."

"I also have a map of the first route. You can modify it according to the map."

"There are many workers. I will ask the Mo family to come over the day after tomorrow and bring things to teach everyone how to lay it."

Zhao Jun held his forehead and explained quickly.

Meng Yi nodded and understood.

only……

"I heard the benefits you just mentioned, so the treatment for setting up camp shouldn't be too bad."

Zhao Jun rolled his eyes at him again.

"Of course it can't be worse. We will set up camp and have three meals a day, ensuring food and workers' treatment."

"Um, go back to the Neishi Mansion and ask for the money."

"okay."

Wouldn't it be easier if you had money?

Soon Meng Yi started to lead people to work vigorously. After all, Zhao Jun had already told him about the urgency of this section of the road.

The next day, Meng Yi took well-trained soldiers to pitch tents and hired cooks to cook on the spot.

On the third day, the Mohist family came over with the finished track, and dozens of Mohist craftsmen were online to guide the workers in laying it.

Three days later, these soldiers have mastered the laying technology.

The Mo family stepped up their efforts to make tracks, and the laying here was also in full swing.

In less than half a month, the section outside Xianyang City was almost completely paved.

Later, Zhao Jun personally brought Juzi and others to check and accept it, saying that it was no problem if it passed the test.

"Okay, Meng Yi, we have worked hard these past half months, so let's give all the workers five days off so that everyone can rest."

The workers, who had been busy for nearly a month, were immediately delighted.

Meng Yi also settled this month's wages for them during the official holiday, and the atmosphere suddenly became more lively.

The workers over there were laughing and joking, and Zhao Jun called Meng Yi aside.

"There is no need to rush the subsequent laying process. Let's take turns as discussed before."

"clear."

He has been very busy for the past half month and is exhausted.

Fortunately, it's done now.

After hearing the news from Zhao Jun, you can see that magical steam locomotive right away.
