All of Xuchang immediately fell into an extremely busy state.
This was especially so for Cao Cao. He personally followed Ma Jun to supervise the production of cement.
However, the production of cement was indeed relatively simple. The most tiring part was only stirring.
However, there were so many craftsmen during the Three Kingdoms period that there was no shortage of manpower.
Although it required a large amount of cement, it could still be produced.
As for the excavation of limestone and other materials, it didn't take much time at all.
Just the small mountains near Xuchang already had limestone.
Although they couldn't have as much of it as they wanted, it was at least enough.
Bai Feng also planned to take advantage of this time to bring Li Cunxiao to Xuchang.
"Teacher is leaving today?"
Cao Cao couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this.
Bai Feng sighed.
"Wei Emperor, as the Governor of Hanzhong, this subject hasn't been to Hanzhong for nearly a year.
"Liu Ba and Cheng Yu are the ones who help me manage the affairs of Hanzhong.
"If I don't go back, I'm afraid that the people of Hanzhong will forget about the governor."
Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh when he heard Bai Feng's words.
"It's fine. Zhongde and Zichu are very capable. During this period of time, Hanzhong's business and agriculture have been developing well.
"Teacher, why don't you stay for a few more days? This Emperor has something to tell you."
Bai Feng couldn't help but be astonished when he heard this.
"Wei Emperor, please speak clearly. What is it?"
Cao Cao stood with his hands behind his back and sighed faintly.
"Teacher, do you still remember what this Emperor said two years ago?"
"Back then, this Emperor said that this Emperor wanted to betroth Jie 'er to you, but due to various reasons, it has been delayed until now."
"Teacher, you don't know how worried I was when you only brought twenty people to Shanyue during this period of time."
Cao Jie …
When he thought of this name, Bai Feng's eyes flashed with a hint of apology.
He really owed Cao Jie too much.
In these two years, the number of days that he had spent with Cao Jie could be counted on one hand.
When Cao Cao saw this, he patted Bai Feng on the shoulder and said, "Bai Feng, you're the best.
"I've decided. I'll pick a good day in the next few days and personally arrange your wedding."
"I want this wedding to be the biggest wedding in all of Xuchang, no, in the entire world."
Bai Feng didn't react at first, but then he was stunned.
Wedding?
So sudden?
Boss Cao, don't think that you can just do whatever you want!
However, Cao Cao's eyes told Bai Feng that he was not joking.
In fact, Cao Cao had been thinking about this problem for the past few days.
To be precise, there were many opportunities for Bai Feng and Cao Cao to get married in the past two years, but Cao Cao hesitated.
This was because Cao Cao wasn't sure if he could completely control Bai Feng.
Bai Feng was definitely not a fish in a pond. Moreover, with his talent and ability, he would be like a fish in water no matter where he went.
Therefore, Cao Cao was still wary of Bai Feng.
With Bai Feng's ability, he definitely wouldn't lose to Sun Quan, Liu Bei, and even himself.
If Bai Feng wanted to be independent, wouldn't it be hard for him?
But now, Cao Cao completely dispelled this idea.
Whether it was the immortal grain seeds or the cement roads, it was enough to see that Bai Feng was wholeheartedly for the current Dawei.
"Thank you, Wei Emperor, for your help. Then I'll have to trouble you, Wei Emperor."
Bai Feng smiled faintly and bowed.
Bai Feng naturally had no reason to refuse.
First of all, putting aside all interests, Bai Feng liked Cao Jie very much just by talking about her.
Whether it was her character or her temperament, they were all almost perfect.
Her father was the Prime Minister at birth, but she didn't have the domineering and hedonistic aura of a rich family's young lady.
She was educated and reasonable, extremely intelligent, and considerate.
Moreover, in official history, Cao Jie was a very righteous person who loved the people as if they were her own children.
During the famine, she often helped the starving people distribute food.
Moreover, Cao Jie also helped him a lot.
In addition, according to interests, as long as he married Cao Cao, then Cao Cao's trust in him would further increase.
Now, Bai Feng's enemy wasn't Liu Bei or Sun Quan.
These two people would fail sooner or later. It was just a matter of time.
Bai Feng's current enemies were Cao Zhi and Cao Pi.
These two people, one in the open and one in the dark, both saw him as a thorn in their flesh.
However, Cao Cao wouldn't care, and he couldn't care.
If he married Cao Jie, then it would be different.
Even if these two wanted to make trouble for him, they would have to consider what Cao Cao would think first.
Therefore, Bai Feng naturally wouldn't refuse.
However, Cao Jie's age was still a little awkward.
Now, she was only sixteen or seventeen years old.
Although Bai Feng wasn't very old, he still felt strange.
However, Cao Cao didn't feel anything. He even felt that Cao Jie married too late.
After all, in the era of the Three Kingdoms, women married very early. Some were already married at thirteen or fourteen, and mothers at seventeen or eighteen.
Cough cough, no wonder Cao Cao liked married women.
Cao Cao didn't know what Bai Feng was thinking. He smiled and said,
"Good! I've already asked Jie 'er. Although Jie' er didn't say anything, I understand her intentions.
"Sir, please stay in Xuchang for a few more days. I'll immediately discuss with Madam and choose an auspicious day!"
With that, Cao Cao left with a smile.
Bai Feng looked at Cao Cao in confusion.
This was the first time Bai Feng saw Cao Cao so happy.
Perhaps it was because the construction of the cement road coincided with his and Cao Jie's wedding. It was a double blessing.
When Bai Feng saw this, he didn't stay in Wei Emperor's Palace and took his leave.
Since he was going to stay in Xuchang, he naturally had to return to the mansion that he hadn't returned to for a long time.
Although Bai Feng hadn't returned to Xuchang for a long time, Cao Cao had always kept this mansion for him.
The maids and servants were still living in the mansion and cleaning it every day.
Bai Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
It seemed that Boss Cao had already prepared for this.
This mansion was probably going to be a bridal chamber.
However, if he were to marry Cao Cao, he might not return to Hanzhong.
It was very likely that he would continue to stay in Xuchang.
In the past few days, the system showed that his reputation in Hanzhong had been increasing. This surprised Bai Feng, but it was within reason.
After all, Liu Ba was in charge of business and Cheng Yu was in charge of agriculture. Both of them were very capable.
With them around, as long as Hanzhong continued to develop according to his plans, it would definitely become one of the top prefectures in the Wei Empire.
In this way, his reputation would only continue to increase if he worked with Shanyue.
When Bai Feng returned, the maids and guards were all shocked. However, Bai Feng was also a little tired.
He had been on the road for so long without doing anything else. Even Bai Feng was a little tired.
