Xu Xingzhi and the others listened to Xie Ling's words with excitement in their eyes and their hearts pounding. They felt as if they were going to compete for the Central Plains in the next moment.

Gao Cunyi was most concerned about the issue of money and asked, "Where does the money for all this come from?"

Xie Ling curled her lips, "Of course it's to take advantage of others."

Some people didn't understand what she said.

Xie Ling drew a picture on the paper.

Everyone understood and smiled meaningfully.

Xie Ling looked at the guards outside the window and suddenly remembered something. She immediately said, "Oh, right, there is also the military camp. Sanitation must be maintained! Definitely! Otherwise, cholera will easily break out."

Wu Daqiang scratched his head, "Isn't it a good idea now?"

Xie Ling shook her head, thinking that these men had too low standards for hygiene.

"It's early autumn now, the weather is cool, and it's good for construction. Let's get started right away."

On the second day, Xie Ling airdropped into the Sinan military camp.

The soldiers thought she was here to give them a snack and were very excited. Every time Xie Ling met a soldier, the soldier would come up to her and ask, "Madam, what are we having for dinner today?"

Xie Ling smiled sinisterly.

I was thinking of adding more work today.

Wu Daqiang dispersed the soldiers and said, "Go, go, go. Now we need to call Xie Zhubo. Those who can't remember should go out and run ten laps."

After Xie Ling walked around and drew a plan for the entire military camp, Wu Daqiang gathered all the soldiers together.

He said loudly: "The county magistrate has ordered that the reconstruction of the barracks' mess and toilets begin today."

Wu Daqiang deliberately kept the audience in suspense and stopped talking here.

The soldiers' wails rang out.

“Why rebuild it?”

“Yeah, I think it’s pretty good now.”

"General, can you please tell the county magistrate that we won't build it? We are one of our own people anyway, so it's okay if we are a little rough."

After the soldiers had howled enough, Wu Daqiang raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "From today on, we will train in the morning and not at night, and we will increase the subsidy by 50 coins per day, and the food in the canteen will be more delicious. Ha, you guys will be so happy."

The soldiers' wails instantly turned into cheers, howling like monkeys that had just been let down from the mountain.

One by one they were roaring and shouting.

"The county magistrate is mighty, the general is mighty!"

Wu Daqiang stroked his beard and laughed.

"Who just said that he didn't want to build a new kitchen toilet? Where is it?"

The soldiers responded opportunistically.

"No, no, I don't know who it is."

Xie Ling glanced at Wu Daqiang and found that he seemed to like this kind of face-slapping behavior and liked to see the soldiers cry and laugh.

Wu Daqiang felt embarrassed by Xie Ling's gaze, so he put away his ferocious smile, coughed twice, and said solemnly: "Quiet, no more noise! ​​Let's start training now, and after the training in the afternoon, we will start building according to Xie Zhubo's drawings!"

Xie Ling waved her hand, "No construction today, make cement today."

Wu Daqiang scratched his head, "What is cement?"

Xie Ling curled her lips, "You'll know when it's done."

When building a toilet, you must use cement to seal the bottom, otherwise it will still be stuffy and smelly after fermenting in the summer.

With the help of this group of strong soldiers, Xie Ling planned to make more cement and store it for use in road construction and city reinforcement in the future.

After the soldiers were trained, she rode to the city to order raw materials.

Various clay bricks, pottery fragments, and water-quenched slag were ordered at one thousand shi.

The amount of quicklime was set at 500 stones.

The amount of plaster of Paris was set at one hundred stones.

After making the decision, Xie Ling waited for the soldiers to finish their training under the shade of a tree.

In the afternoon, the soldiers finished their training, and Xie Ling needed a hundred people to go with her to get the food.

The soldiers vied for the right to accompany her, and in the end almost came to blows.

In the end, Wu Daqiang solved the conflict by blindly selecting a hundred people.

One cart after another was pushed towards the ceramic factory.

The workers at the ceramic factory looked at Xie Ling as if she were a fool.

These broken tiles cannot be disposed of on normal days, but they didn't expect that there would be a sucker who would buy them, and he bought one thousand stones at a time, almost buying up all the junk in their factory in the past few years.

I'm afraid it's the silly daughter of the landlord who comes to ruin the family's wealth.

The owner of the house was still worrying about how to deal with the situation, but he didn't expect that the sucker would come. It's really amazing.

But when they saw that it was soldiers who came to move things, the workers became confused again. Could it be that the girl was a daughter of an official?

The soldiers looked at the various broken porcelain and pottery pieces, as well as quicklime and slaked plaster on the cart and were very puzzled.

"Xie Zhubo, why did you buy these broken porcelain pieces?"

"And isn't this quicklime used to spread on the ground to kill insects?"

"What is this plaster of Paris for? Master Xie, are you going to open a porcelain factory?"

Xie Ling put her hand to her mouth and hushed, "Shut up. You'll know in a few days."

The soldiers shut up and quietly pushed the pile of "junk" back to the barracks.

Wu Daqiang saw from afar his soldiers pushing dozens of carts back.

He thought it was something rare, but when he got closer, his eyes widened, "Isn't this junk?"

Xie Ling frowned.

Wu Daqiang quickly slapped himself on the mouth, "What are you saying with your rotten mouth? Everything my niece A Ling has is a treasure!"

As he spoke, he looked around, his eyes wide open, "If anyone dares to say anything, I will skin you alive!"

Soldiers: Who is gossiping?

———

Xie Ling’s task for the soldiers today is to make cement.

She divided the soldiers into four groups.

One group started a fire and prepared the kang.

The second group moved the broken porcelain pieces.

Three groups carried quicklime and plaster of Paris.
