Five teams, from three different forces, will naturally have a difference in strength and weakness, and will compete for the top spot.

And according to Yan Ji's statement, their coming here is an important matter, and the great task of craftsmen is of course to build large buildings or objects, which inevitably involves the dispatch of massive funds, massive resources and manpower, and countless disputes over power and money.

Therefore, all the teams and the forces behind them will inevitably want to try to snatch the position of the commander.

The higher you stand, the more power you can obtain, and the greater the impact on the subsequent links.

"The Moon Age Team is also going to fight for this position?" Xu Wen immediately understood, and asked in a deep voice, "If Lord Yan comes forward from you, there is a great chance, right?" ”

"I can't participate. Yan Ji shook his head.

"Why?" Xu Wen frowned incomprehensibly.

"In short, there is a special reason. Yan Ji didn't explain.

"If you don't participate, then there will only be a few of them...... Xu Wen pondered.

All the way to the Western Desert, mainly in a hurry, Xu Wen did not have much opportunity to watch the Huang Jiangguan and their work and observe their actual skill level.

But after getting along for so long, I finally got to know each other a little.

Huang Jiangguan is good at reading and remembering people, and he is a good hand at organizing the team, but he is not particularly good at personal skills, at least it has been abandoned for a long time.

In other words, he is now a pure administrative worker, not an engineering technician.

The other craftsman is similar, their greatest advantage is that they are obedient and kind.

They will do whatever Yan Ji asks them to do, and even some of the arrangements that Xu asks them will often obey, and they have no frame of craftsmen at all.

There were 300 people along the way, and all kinds of administrative affairs were arranged very properly. After a month, everyone is safe and sound or even living well, although there is a lot of credit to Xu Wen, but their care and thoughtfulness are also indispensable.

But this is how the Inner Pavilion was selected, and these two craftsmen are good at this, so on the other hand, they can't help but emphasize less.

There may be some ways for these two people to compete for any administrative position, but I also know that the so-called competition for chief officials is definitely not such an out-of-the-way thing, and it must be related to skills.

Don't underestimate them, their strength in this area is indeed lacking.

Yan Ji can't participate, and the other two craftsmen are not capable enough, so what should they do with the Moon Age team?

"Your team is in a very special situation, and you may not have an advantage to go it alone, you have to join together to play your best role as a team. Yan Ji said slowly.

Yan Ji was right. Their team belongs to a special system, and everyone can play the best role when they are in the system, but if they are put into another system, they are still ordinary craftsmen, which is equivalent to a waste.

"What do you mean?" Neither left nor right, what are they going to do?Xu Wen raised his head and asked Yan Ji suspiciously.

"You passed the three apprenticeship tests and officially graduated as the leader of the three rounds?" Yan Ji looked at him and asked slowly.

Xu Wen was stunned.

The leader of the three companies is Xu Wen, not his "Yan Fourteen".

Of course, from the very beginning, Yan Ji knew his true identity and knew that he was Lian Tianqing's apprentice. Yan Ji did not hide this, and Xu Wen was also very clear.

But he has always asked Xu to ask "Yan Fourteen", and he has never put this matter on the table.

Now that he suddenly mentioned it bluntly, Xu Wen was a little uncomfortable.

He stared at Yan Ji and did not speak.

"If the apprentice comes out of the third test, he is a formal craftsman, and he can accept the position of craftsman and participate in the competition of the chief officer. Yan Ji said slowly, "I can't, they can't, you can." ”

"I can't!" Xu Wen shook his head, his tone was very resolute, "I'm Yan Fourteen, not the leader of the three consecutive companies." ”

"You don't have to rush to refuse. I know why you're hiding your identity. But your master is your master, you are your ......"

Yan Ji was interrupted by Xu Wen before he finished speaking: "No, my master asked me to hide my identity because he wanted to hide his whereabouts and didn't want some people to know." He told you this for my own good, and he trusted you. I don't know why he wants to hide from the public, but I don't want to live up to his kindness, and I don't want you to live up to his trust. ”

He straightened up and turned to leave, obviously not wanting to discuss the matter with Yan Ji again.

"Do you know what this great thing is? It is about ten thousand taels of silver, more than one hundred thousand servants. As long as you become the chief officer, all of this will be under your command and controlled by you at will!" Behind him, Yan Ji straightened up slightly and raised his voice.

"There are some things that if it were just me, I might still be tempted. But Master has been very kind to me and cares for me. What he didn't want to do, I didn't want to do. Xu Wen didn't turn around, and Yan Ji's excitement showed his calmness even more.

Xu Wen greeted Xu San and left here.

When Xu Wen was talking to Yan Ji, Xu San didn't speak, and then he put down the teacup, got up and left, without the slightest hesitation.

Out of the door of the Gefeng Courtyard, Xu Wen breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "The only way to continue to trouble Yue Muxuan is to continue to trouble." ”

"Last time, Boss Lu said that their business has been done in the West Desert, and I don't know if there is one in Lvlin Town. Xu San also didn't mention what happened just now, and then changed the topic, "But it is impossible for this kind of big wood merchant to come in silently, and there should be news from the Ziyi Gongshuo." ”

"Yes, go and ask Master Qiu. Xu Wen nodded.

The two returned to the previous place and found Qiu Yueming, and he really knew.

Yue Mu Xuan has indeed opened to the West Desert Green Forest Town, and it is also in the outer city, and the commercial bank is some distance away from Ziyi Gong.

Qiu Yueming had something to do, so she pointed to a small guy and took them over.

The location of Yue Mu Xuan is a bit out of the way, in a remote alley in the west of the city, it is not a person who can't find it at all, no wonder they didn't see it when they came out last time.

When he came to the door, Xu Wen first heard a burst of laughter, and Xu San next to him raised his head and heard this voice with some surprise: "Boss Lu?"

Lu Wenxiang, the last time Xu asked Yue Muxuan to buy a batch of winter clothes, he handled it.

This person acted calmly, neither humble nor arrogant, and Xu Wen had a good impression of him.

Xu Wen remembered that Lu Wenxiang was in charge of all matters of Yuemuxuan in Ximo, and he was the general manager here, but he didn't expect to meet him again in Lvlin Town so soon.

Lu Wenxiang obviously sent the guests out, and when he looked up and saw Xu Wen, he seemed to be a little surprised.

He nodded to the two of them, sent the man away first, and then stepped forward, gave the reward money and sent the little servant of the Ziyi Office, and saluted the two of them: "Brother Yan, Brother Xu." ”

The last time they met, Xu Wen affirmed his pseudonym, and only once, Lu Wenxiang remembered it very clearly.

"Is it urgent? When will it be needed?" Lu Wenxiang led them in, and when he heard about their intentions, he asked.

"It's not too urgent, there are already some supplies, enough to supply for about a month, and it can be replenished when the time comes. And you don't have to make it all at once, it's best to arrive one after another month. If it's not convenient, it's okay to be in place all at once, and it's winter and things are easy to preserve. Xu asked.

"That's very easy, I'll arrange it immediately, and I won't miss it. Lu Wenxiang readily agreed.

"Brother Yan, is this a sympathy for the people of Fengchun?" After talking about business, Lu Wenxiang asked with a smile.

"Well, they suffered too badly, so they tried to help as much as they could. Xu asked.

"Yes, you are also involuntarily in your current service. Lu Wenxiang nodded in agreement.

“...... Well. Xu asked silently.

Money and things are easy to do, what about people?

Xu Xihuai thought about escaping for this reason, Xu Wen finally calmed him down, and now he has a conflict with Yan Ji again.

If it was just the temptation of power and fame, he had nothing to hesitate about, but now so many people and so many lives were involved.

I still have to find a way......

Lu Wenxiang saw his expression and knew that he had mentioned something that should not be mentioned, so he immediately changed the topic and said, "Speaking of which, I just asked for a prescription, if Brother Yan is free, can you help me take a look." ”

"What recipe?" Xu Wen asked casually, still thinking about other things.

"The recipe of the triple soil. I heard that Brother Yan has recently studied masonry and mud water, and I want to ask ......"

Before Lu Wenxiang finished speaking, Xu Wen raised his head and asked, "What recipe?"

"Sanhe soil...... Of?" Lu Wenxiang was stunned for a moment and replied.

"Isn't Yue Mu Xuan in the wood merchant business, why do you want to ask for a recipe for Sanhe soil?" Xu Wen asked curiously.

"Don't you know? Recently, the public office has purchased Sanhe Tu Fang with a lot of money, which requires stable properties, easy access to materials, and can support large-scale use. It is rumored that this is the request of the Inner Pavilion, and they take this matter very seriously, and in the end, they can provide a suitable prescription, not only to get money, but also to have many other benefits. It is not easy for Yuemuxuan to develop in the Western Desert, so it can only involve the following other fields......"

There is nothing to hide from Xu Wen about these things, and Lu Wenxiang explained it very clearly.

Xu Wen's eyes gradually lit up, and he said, "Okay, what about that Sanhe earthwork, I'll take a look." ”
