Sun Ce glanced at Zulang beside him and asked with a smile: "Zhulang, the ore you are looking for is very eye-catching."

Zulang replied respectfully: "Lord, the ore mountain you mentioned has been found, not far from here. After going down the mountain, head north along the road and leave the mountain five or six miles away from us. It is all the best chalk stones. The location there is not far from the official road."[]

"The lime that the lord said is used in many places, but the country people don't understand it, so they call it chalk. It is so convenient to find that kind of stone in this mountain. It can be said that it can be seen everywhere in the mountains and is not considered a rare thing."

Looking at the lord nodding and applauding, Zulang continued, "And we have recruited some craftsmen at the foot of the mountain over there, built an ash kiln, and prepared charcoal. Oh! Carbonite is what the lord calls coal, hehe! The country people have no knowledge, and they call this stone that can burn fire.

All the things the lord wants have been prepared. Just wait for the lord to open a kiln and refine the chalk!"

"It's just that my subordinates don't understand what the use of lord needs to practice this chalk. Clay and iron ore? And we can't use it even if we practice so much chalk! Do you want to use it for this business? This is not a valuable thing. If the villagers want to use it, they can mostly refine it themselves. Few people go to the street market to buy it!"

After hearing this, Sun Ce shook his head and said to Zulang: "Of course you either go to sell it, or you want to sell it now, it's not time. Just follow my instructions, and you will understand it in two days! Haha!"

He thought happily: "I didn't expect this to be so simple to proceed! But that's true. The annual output of hundreds of millions of tons of cement in later generations was that limestone and clay were originally ordinary raw materials. It would definitely not be difficult to find, but this matter must be kept strictly confidential at present, and Zhou Yu and Zhou Shan should be given key control."

The production process of silicate cement is representative in cement production. It is made by crushing, ingredient and grinding into raw materials in a three to one ratio, and then fed into a cement kiln to calcinate the clinker, and then grinding the clinker with an appropriate amount of gypsum (sometimes mixed materials or admixtures) and grinding it into fine.

Thinking of this, Zulang asked him to arrange the manpower, prepare the raw materials, and prepare the kiln to open a kiln to make the first kiln cement of the Three Kingdoms. At the same time, the task of building a defense line on the only road at the foot of the mountain was arranged.

With the resistance and early warning of this line of defense, the bastard will not encounter a sudden attack again like this time.

After these things, Sun Ce suddenly remembered the distiller he brought and said to Zulang: "I brought a piece of equipment this time. You prepare a large and spacious room for me, and bring some of the lees you made last time to be used. There are also things that cannot be caught in a fire, and prepare more sealable wine jars. I want to try to refine some things."

Zulang hurriedly replied: "These are all arranged by the Captain Deng Dang. A single huge room was specially built beside the wine-making pond behind the mountain. It is a little larger than my meeting hall, and it should be prepared for the lord. However, it is not far from those pig houses, and the taste is not very good. I wonder if the lord is..."

Sun Ce was overjoyed and said, "Okay, this Deng Dang is really good. The things that he told him can be arranged so well. Very good, very good! This time, I want to reward him well! He is really a reliable talent! It's just that Zulang, you guys have worked hard during this period!"

Zulang hurriedly thanked: "The lord has been too rewarded, so Zulang dares not take credit! These are the results of careful arrangements for construction after Deng Dangdang's lieutenant came. Zulang just took his brothers to fight. He dared not win the lord's praise like this!

Zulang wished that as long as he saw his copycat building more and more like a prosperous town, Zulang would be satisfied!"

Sun Ce laughed and asked him to lead the way, and immediately went to see the big house arranged by Deng Dang.

I found that the pig house was at least fifty meters away from it, and there was no obvious odor under the strong mountain wind. The room made of smooth bluestone looked particularly tall and majestic. Everything was arranged more appropriately than the orders conveyed by Sun Ce.

Sun Ce returned to the school with satisfaction with everyone. The generals were surrounded by him, which made him feel like a great man from later generations inspecting his subordinates' territories.

Just as everyone was about to finish the inspection, Hua Tuo, who had been missing for a long time, walked out of a small room on the side of the school grounds. He saw Sun Ce in the crowd at a glance. Seeing Sun Ce coming over, he waved to him.

Sun Ce hurriedly walked to him and asked, "Father-in-law, how is Captain Deng's injury? You two great doctors come out!"

But when he saw Hua Tuo, he didn't answer immediately, but his face was particularly heavy.

Sun Ce's heart couldn't help but 'Katun'. His voice trembled slightly and asked, "What's wrong? Father-in-law! Could it be that Captain Deng was not rescued?"

I suddenly remembered in my heart: "This Deng Dang died of illness not long after he defected to me in history."

As a result, Sun Ce's confidence in Huatuo could not help but shake. His calm mood became a little up and down.

Following Sun Ce, Guan Hai, who was also concerned about this issue, also looked anxious. He was like a criminal waiting for the final judgment, looking forward and afraid that the old doctor would speak. The answer to this question was related to his prospects for his development in the Jiangdong Army.

He was amazed in his heart: "God, that person named Deng died after all, right? I heard that his brother-in-law is the lord's personal guard! If this is the case, I will be hard for my life to survive in the future!"

It turned out that in this short time, this man with a shrewd mind but a rude appearance, but he didn't know who had inquired about the important personnel of the Jiangdong Army. He knew the relationship between Deng Dang and Lu Meng, and also knew that their position in the heart of the lord was much more close to him than his newcomer.

Just look at the thick black face on Sun Ce’s face, which is about to drip, you can tell how angry Sun Ce is now.

Hua Tuo finally sighed and said in a deep voice: "Oh! Bo Fu, don't be sad!"

Hearing him say this, the hearts of the generals sank. It seems that the Jiangdong Army is really going to lose a general. Everyone has a kind of sadness of the death of a rabbit and the fox! No matter how you say it is all their own comrades!

Zulang and Zhou Shan remembered the deep friendship they had formed with Deng Dang, a generous and talented man over the past few months, and were even more sad, but they couldn't help but burst into tears.

Guan Hai's heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the valley, and his strong body shook a little, thinking with a depressed look: "How could this happen? I just thought I could make a wise decision and let go of my hands and feet to accomplish something."

"From his layout, everything is long-term. As long as I follow him, I will always have the opportunity to make a name for myself. But because I want to make a living, it will ruin my own future! God, why do I always treat me so unfairly!"

However, Sun Ce learned from the previous experiences and learned how Hua Tuo spoke.

His "special" habit that always talks about the first half has tricked many people into the sadness and tears. I can only say that this old miracle doctor really has a special hobby. It seems that people with specialties always have some strange temperaments, which is indeed the truth. Therefore, this time I just watched him helplessly, and was not busy with sadness!

Hua Tuo sighed for a while and found that Sun Ce did not show the expected sadness, but just stared at him with his eyes wide open, waiting for his next sentence.
Chapter completed!
