In June, the midsummer of the lunar calendar, the scorching sun made the air a little distorted.Cao Shuo lost his image, rolled up his sleeves and squatted in the thatched shed on the construction site, fanning wildly with an oversized cattail fan in his left hand, but he still couldn't save the second son from sweating profusely.

Spread out in front of Cao Shuo is the half-built Chenliang New Road, like a huge blood vessel exposed to the air.The ground was dug [-] centimeters below the ground, first compacted, and then a layer of gravel, a layer of flat stones, and a layer of coal ash river sand were laid on top. Half of the top road surface was bluestone and half was poured out of cement.Drainage should be done on the side of the road, and the location of street trees should be reserved.

After the practice in Liaodong, Lingnan, and Qingzhou, Cao's road design can be regarded as mature in Yanzhou.The original stupidity of pouring a whole block of concrete directly on the South Island will never happen again.Cao Shuo’s paved, waterproof, frost-proof, and long-lasting load-bearing road is worthy of the title "New Road".

It was too hot, not only for people, but also for the cement made in the late Han Dynasty, so work had to be stopped at two hours at noon.The peasants gathered under the shade of the trees to enjoy the cool air, and many of them lay shirtless on the ground and fell asleep as soon as they fell asleep. Their bodies were covered with dust, which was actually dirtier than the new road under construction.

Just like that, they still felt that the Cao family was benevolent, because they paid meals at the construction site, the kind of soybeans and sweet potatoes that would fart when they ate them.Occasionally, there is an almost indistinguishable sweetness in the soy milk for breakfast.

Cao Shuo also benefited from the good reputation of the family.Seeing that he was sweating profusely from the heat, the aunt who was cooking had already brought him several bowls of tea.Cao Shuo drank it all in one gulp every time, and then turned them all into sweat.

"It's so scorching hot." The Second Young Master Cao was extremely wronged, but he still had to go around among the peasants every other hour, and shouted in his still clear and clear voice after he developed, "Cao's family is here, if you are wronged, you will be wronged. ".

In the end, even the sweaty peasants were not afraid of him anymore, and they shouted one after another: "Young Lord, you are not afraid of heatstroke, you are thin-skinned and tender, you better go and rest."

Cao Shuo is like a cat whose tail has been trampled on: "This is not going to work. If I am lazy, I will be punished when I go home." , It was a blood loss to the end.

It is said that things will become like this, and we have to start from the day of the Dragon Boat Festival.

That night, after Uncle Cao added two cans of spicy bean paste and three catties of locust tree nectar to Cao Zhang's apprentice ceremony, he called Cao Shuo to him as if he suddenly remembered something, and asked him, "What kind of person is Liu Xuande?"

Cao Shuo replied honestly: "Liu Xuande has always won battles and ruled Chang'an. I asked him for advice as a young man, and he did not despise him with all his heart. The rumors about his benevolence and righteousness in Ying's rumors are really not groundless."

Hearing this, Cao Sheng was silent for a long time, and then suddenly smiled, a kind of laughter that Cao Shuo couldn't understand at all. "If you learn Liu Xuande's three points, it will be enough in this life." She said.

Cao Shuo nodded quickly.In fact, Xiao Chunjie's intuition has already raised the red alarm.

However, the second uncle did not spare him because of his hospitality. "You go to build the road, the schoolwork is over, the boss is not young, it is not easy to talk about marriage without merit."

Don't look at me as a donkey when I'm young!When will the men of our Cao family have to build roads before they can marry a wife? !Isn't my father a doll? !

But Cao Sheng in Xu County was the largest, so Cao Shuo was still packed into a ball and thrown on the construction site of the Liang Road without making a sound.It's only been a month now, he has already traveled to the construction site for three sections, and he is about to go to the next section.

Cao Shuo ran and yelled all the way, and finally finished his work at noon today before his throat burst into flames. He returned to the shed, picked a small stool next to the steward, and sat on it.He took the water bag handed over by the guard, gulped it down, and then wiped his mouth: "Guard Li, let's reconcile the account in the afternoon."

Li Guanshi hurriedly said solemnly, "Second Young Master, do whatever you want."

"Fresh man!" Cao Shuo clapped his hands, "You Wupingduan, you have a lot of food and excellent materials, and your accounts are not bad." The second son of Cao played his chattering skills, blowing rainbow farts, and coaxed the steward to blush Light.

However, as soon as he turned his head, he looked for a cold-faced guard Cao Sheng sent him: "I didn't miss anything, did I?"

The cold-faced guard showed no expression, and didn't even move his eyebrows: "Second Young Master thinks there is no problem here, then there is no problem."

Cao Shuo gritted his teeth and lowered his voice: "Aren't you the spy department? The most well-informed, huh?"

"The spy department is the spy department, and it is the second son who supervises the 'Chenliang New Road Construction'." A certain guard slumped his handsome face, thought for a while, and added, "I am not the spy department."

"Fart. Ye Ye, you don't have a military status, and you don't have a body certificate. If it wasn't for the Ministry of Spy, I would write Cao in reverse."

"Ye Ye": ... "My name is not Ye Ye."

Cao Shuo pursed his lips and kicked a stone back and forth. "I just knew that because I work at home, I don't have anything. My eldest brother has already followed several spy department stewards, and I only have surveillance here."

"The spy department only obeys the instructions of one person. Before Cao Shi officially handed over the power to the eldest son, it is impossible for you to follow."

"Haha, I caught you. You still say you're not the spy department!" Cao Shuo jumped up, not at all looking disappointed, his eyes were full of pride in the success of the trick.

"Ye Ye": ...Farewell, I was blind.

Where would Cao Shuo let him go, he was already entangled with him like a dog's skin plaster. "Ye Ye, Ye Ye, is Manager Li not corrupt? Have you found any bullies and bandits in Wuping? Are there any spies in the group of civilians? Ye Ye, Ye Ye, how does your spy department train? Yes? I heard that you have to learn to change your face, smashing boulders in your chest, and flying over walls. Is it true? Ye Ye, Ye Ye, what secret mission did my second uncle give you? Ah, is it true that the old thief Yuan Shu is extremely clever? My second son, I..."

"To shut up!"

"Ye Ye, you are murdering me. Even if you are the spy department, I am my second uncle's nephew, you are the next one."

"..."

"Ye Ye, it will be my birthday in less than seven days, why don't you express it? We are best friends."

"Ye Ye has no virtue or talent, so I dare not be friends with the Second Young Master." Can you go away?

……

Just when Cao Shuo was happily pestering his new friend, Xu County was already blown away.Sun Quan and Cao Pi, two noble children, are gone!
