At this time, when a lot of things came, Jiang Wan ran around and traveled between the county government and the various sites every day, and was very busy. Since he had roughly agreed on the operation method with Lei Yuan, the other detailed tasks were connected by the officials. So Jiang Wan did not delay and left.

Zhou Hu left immediately. He was the chief manager in charge of clan affairs and was busier than Jiang Wan. After discussing with Lei Yuan last night, many matters were immediately arranged. The most urgent thing was to repair the granary.

The county town of Lexiang is generally square, with the northwest corner where the general and the county magistrate jointly operated the office. Now it is used by Jiang Wan. The northeast corner was originally a large mansion and was about to be converted into a large-scale military fortress. Lei Yuan's living and office are generally here. According to the previous plan, in addition to the barracks of garrisons, there are also ancillary facilities such as armory, grain warehouse and stables.

There are two granaries, not far from the main hall where Lei Yuan is located, both built on the raised earth and stone base. One is the one, and the other is the warehouse, which should be used to store soybeans and corn a hundred years ago. The walls of the granary were very thick, and only small holes were opened on them for ventilation. Because the roof of the warehouse and the outer pavilion had long collapsed, the people who occupied the granary laid wooden boards inside, used the breathable holes as perforations for bows and arrows, and used them as watchtowers, which was quite similar.

Starting from early this morning, Zhou Hu mobilized more than 300 civilians and more than 100 soldiers to start repairing the granary. Because the abandoned houses around were demolished at the same time to obtain building materials, it is expected that in only two days, wooden boards and hay mats can be re-layed at the bottom of the warehouse, and a new hanging mountain top with eaves on all sides was built. Among the first batch of followers who came to Le Township with Lei's troops, there were several veterans who were quite good at civil engineering construction. At this moment, they were responsible for directing the renovation. Zhou Hu was a meticulous person and always felt that he could only feel at ease when he came to the scene.

Lei Yuan did not keep him.

Everyone has been busy these days, and they can avoid dealing with the complicated red tape. If you have time, do more practical things.

Zhou Hu turned out from the main hall, and along the way, he saw many construction sites in the camp. Several dirt roads connecting to the barracks were also tamped and leveled, and wood, stone and other materials were piled up on the open space on the side of the road. The civilians responsible for the efforts moved stones and digging soil, and they were heard one after another. The craftsman holding ink buckets, rulers and other objects shouted and directed, and the sound of jingling chiseling was endless. From time to time, a burst of dust rose from somewhere, choking people with dirt.

Xu Jian, the leader of the craftsman who was responsible for repairing the granary, was about forty years old. He had dark skin, vicissitudes of face, and his hands were very chapped. He was an old man under the protection of the Lei clan. He had two clan brothers and three sons, and were also craftsmen. Many of the camps and fortresses in the mountains of the Lei clan in Lujiang were built by Xu Jian and his family. According to their own boastful words, ten years ago, his clansmen also participated in the construction of the palace of the Zhong clan regime in Shouchun.

Zhou Hu himself did not understand civil engineering construction, so he completely let Xu Jianshiwei go to the relevant matters. He himself only verified the consumption of relevant materials, so the two worked very smoothly.

Seeing Zhou Hu coming, Xu Jian hurriedly came to greet him. The two of them had known each other for a long time. As the leader of the craftsman, Xu Jian knew that since Zhou Hu got along with the thick legs of the young man, he had become a nobleman of high status. So he not only spoke very politely, but also found a dark cloth towel from somewhere, intending to wipe the dust for Zhou Hu.

Zhou Hu laughed and refused, and the two chatted easily.

Just as he was about to enter the granary with Xu Jian, a entourage rushed over: "Manager Zhou, the young man was summoned urgently."

Zhou Hu was shocked. He had just left for a while, why was there another urgent matter? Seeing that the entourage had no clues. He quickly accused Xu Jian of the crime and rushed to the main hall. On the way, he asked: "What happened?"

The entourage shook his head: "As soon as there was an urgent report, the young man immediately summoned all the camp Sima and the manager. I really don't know what happened."

"well."

Zhou Hu arrived at the main hall, and Guo had arrived first. Lei Yuan didn't say much, but just asked the two to wait. Soon, He Song and Lei Cheng, who were in the military camp outside the city, arrived one after another. These four people were the four most powerful figures in the city of Lexiang at the moment.

All four were summoned by Lei Yuan without any warning. When they looked at each other, there was no entourage in the hall. The four of them asked each other, but they didn't understand.

Lei Yuan saw their doubts, so he reached out and tried to pick up a letter from the table. Half of his hand, he turned his palm over the letter, and then slowly said:

"Just this time, Wang Yan sent someone to report that his father and members of the Lujiang Lei clan had arrived in Lexiang. Now, they are stopping at the dock and are expected to arrive in the county town tonight."

The atmosphere in the hall was a little depressed in an instant.

Zhou Hu couldn't help but shrink his head. The sect leader and relatives of the Lujiang Lei family were about to arrive. As people who serve the clan, they should express joy. But he... he really couldn't be happy.

Zhou Hu felt that his emotions were complicated, a little nervous, and a little panic.

The Lei family in Lujiang is a Haowu family that dominated Huainan, but they not only have brave and fighting private soldiers, but also have huge dependents. The reason why the scale of relying on the people is huge is inseparable from the clan appeal that the Lei family has been deeply rooted in the people for decades.

Those who have such appeal are the elders of the clan of the Lei clan in Lujiang, not Lei Yuan, or several people following Lei Yuan's hall.

These people in the hall were all those who seized power through the chaos in the mountains. Before that incident, Lei Yuan was not valued and had no reputation. Guo was actually a guard leader, Zhou Hu was an unpopular manager. He Song and Lei Cheng had a better life, but they were just ordinary men fighting on the battlefield, far from being in charge of the first battalion now.

Lei Yuan mastered the army through fighting and fighting, and used the dangerous situation of Cao's pursuit to defeat the entire Lujiang Lei clan with force. However, this control was completely based on military affairs. Once it was in a peaceful environment, the situation would inevitably change.

Compared with the old masters in those clans and the status given to them by clan etiquette, Lei Yuan himself is nothing but. His friends can almost be said to be rootless duckweed.

Everyone present understood that when Lei Yuan took the lead to Lexiang, he entrusted the power to take charge of affairs to Xin Bin and Wang Yan. It was clear at that time that the two should support Lei Xuanran in Miankou to recuperate, protect the Lei clan relatives, and let the people of various tribes set out in advance; when they settled in various places in Lexiang, they would come with the last fleet.

However, Xin Bin and Wang Yan did not meet Lei Yuan's request.

Now, Lei Xu, the leader of the Lei clan of Lujiang, came to Lexiang in advance. Who is with him? Are the elders and Su Laos of the Lei clan surrounded by him?

What happened that made Xin Bin and Wang Yan unable to control the movements of the people in the Lei clan?

Zhou Hu couldn't figure it out.

Lei Yuan opened Shu Jian, took a few more glances, and closed it again.

He looked around everyone and smiled and said, "Yongming said in the book that his father's health has improved slightly. It is said that he has been awake for one hour every day. Recently, he has met Su Lao in the clan. In addition, Mr. Xin also helped and did a lot of things for my father."

After a pause, he continued to smile and said happily: "It's great that my father's physical competition can gradually recover."

Guo Jing's brow jumped slightly and soon returned to its original state.

He Song's face was as deep as water, and there was no expression at all.

Zhou Hu shrank his whole body back.
