Hu Jiu and Shi San did not delay, and followed the female soldiers through the royal court, and met Hui, whom they had some impression of, on the grassland outside the royal court.
"General manager, these are the two people your Majesty ordered me to bring." The female soldier didn't know what to call Hu Jiu and Shisan, so she looked at them apologetically.
Seeing the female soldier calling Hui Hui the General Manager, Hu Jiu and Shi San also called her the same way: "I have met the General Manager. We both came from the Kingdom of God on Your Majesty. We have also met the General Manager before, but we were still young at that time." ."
Hearing what Hu Jiu said, a look of surprise flashed across Hui's eyes, and then she seemed to have figured something out, and she looked happy.
"I remember, you have spots on your face. If I remember correctly, you should be Hu Jiu?"
Hui put down the registered cloth in her hand and asked gently with a smile.
For the wolf pups, they have spent several years in the world of riding and slashing, but for Hui, they have only disappeared for less than half a year.
I still remember the places that should make an impression.
Hu Jiu didn't expect Hui to still remember her. He nodded and said playfully: "Yes, manager, I am indeed Hu Jiu. I didn't expect the manager's memory to be so good."
"Haha, I can just remember some things. This is..."
Hui still trusted the wolf cubs. He knew that they were Zhang Qi's absolute confidants, and even compared to him, they were more trusted by Zhang Qi.
"He is thirteen. Your Majesty ordered us to build a workshop here, so he brought us out."
"Workshop..." Hui had a puzzled expression on his face. Zhang Qi hadn't told him. He looked at the female soldier, who nodded.
Seeing the female soldier nodding, Hui knew that this was indeed what Zhang Qi meant, so she asked with confidence: "Just tell me what you need. These things belong to the king, and with his approval, I will give you whatever you want. "
Hu Jiu's face was full of smiles: "Thank you, Manager Hui. We need some manpower, and
Mr. Hui will take care of these things. "
While Hu Jiu was talking, Hui was writing down that they were all common things and they were all in the supply warehouse.
"Okay, I understand. Just wait a moment and I'll make arrangements."
Holding the cloth list recording the supplies Hu Jiu mentioned, Hui went to make arrangements. By the way, he also gathered a team of about a hundred herders. These were all devout believers and could be trusted.
While Hui was making arrangements, Hu Jiu also took out the map Zhang Qi gave her, spread it out on the ground and started reading.
"Thirteen, the industrial area designated by Your Majesty is over there. You first ride on horseback to find a place suitable for building a cement workshop. Be careful not to be too close to the water source. That is upstream, so don't pollute the water source."
Hu Jiu knew about cement workshops. She was one of the people who participated in the experiment. She knew exactly how the environment would be polluted during the cement production process.
Thirteen nodded. He was self-aware. He was able to follow Jun Shang out this time just because of Hu Jiu. He was an extremely mediocre one among the wolf cubs.
His knowledge is average and his martial arts is average. If he hadn't had a good vision and formed a deep friendship with Hu Jiu, he wouldn't have been able to leave a deep impression on his lord.
"Well, don't worry, Sister Ajiu, I will pay attention."
Thirteen muttered something, picked a group of prairie horses in the pasture, and drove northwest according to the direction on the map.
Thirteen was not very used to riding these prairie horses with extremely crude saddles. The saddles in the world of riding and slashing were very useful. They had stirrups and a bridge. Even if their legs did not use much force, they could ride steadily on the horse.
But the outside world is different. The back of these horses is just a simple animal skin mat. When riding, it is difficult to exert force and most of the strength must be used to clamp the horse's belly.
Thirteen didn’t understand why his lord didn’t make saddles like those in the Kingdom of God, but he didn’t understand. Since his lord didn’t make it, then it was his own intention, and it wasn’t something he should worry about.
Thirteen was selecting a site, and Hui in the pasture spent most of an hour preparing the supplies Hu Jiu needed.
Shovels, shovels, hammers and a series of other necessary tools.
He prepared all the boiled bone glue and collected resin for Hu Jiu, whatever was recorded on the list and included in the supplies.
Although he didn't know what Zhang Qi was going to do, he always remembered what he said on the grassland that day. Whatever Zhang Qi did, he would help.
More than a hundred herdsmen have also gathered. These men, who are obviously stronger than the Xianbei herdsmen, are loyal believers that Zhang Qi has raised for half a year.
They are extremely devout in their belief in gods, and they will give everything for it as long as Zhang Qi needs it.
After all the manpower, supplies, and site selection were sorted out, Hu Jiu took people to build a cement workshop.
Calling it a workshop is actually just building a kiln, but the kilns built include not only cement kilns, but also charcoal kilns.
Zhang Qi has not yet discovered coal mines in the outside world, so the only fuel that can be used is charcoal. The burning temperature of charcoal is only so high, so the necessary supporting facilities such as bellows are also essential.
The construction of the cement workshop cannot be completed overnight. It will take at least several months until it is completed. Most of Zhang Qi's thoughts are not here. What he is currently preparing for is the upcoming 'Advent'.
The Xianbei people have not completely surrendered to him, so he cannot completely trust them in many matters, so getting back one's heart is still the first thing that needs to be solved in the sequence.
Unlike others in this era who were accustomed to governing by doing nothing, Zhang Qi preferred to make the people under his rule loyal to him. Although doing so was cumbersome, it could reduce many dangers lurking in the dark.
To achieve this, Zhang Qi can rely on faith.
The platform for nearly 30,000 people to watch was not easy to build. In more than a month, the Xianbei soldiers had only completed the rough outline. If the devout herdsmen under Zhang Qi had not arrived, this platform alone would have required It took several months to build.
The site of the platform is on the flat land not far from the royal court. In the future, Zhang Qi will build this place into a shrine for people to worship. If everything goes well, this place will also become a holy place in the hearts of all those who believe in gods.
After approving more than a dozen pieces of writing on the blackboard, Zhang Qi asked the female soldiers to hand them over to various ministries, while he strolled outside the royal court.
The construction speed of the platform was much faster after more herdsmen participated. In order to allow people to hear Zhang Qi's voice clearly, he asked the craftsmen of the riding and slashing world to build many iron speakers.
Seeing that the progress was good, Zhang Qi nodded with satisfaction. Seeing Zhang Qi coming, Yao, who was supervising the work, also walked to Zhang Qi's side with a smile.
"Your Majesty."
As the plate gets bigger and bigger, these brothers who had a good relationship with him now use more honorific names. Zhang Qi has no objection to this, but he misses the closeness when he first escaped from the clan.
