At first glance, it sounds like a difficult task to collect 100,000 ordnance within a month.

But this number is only a total number, and then divided into categories, it is not so exaggerated to share it evenly with each of them, and the ordnance supervisor also has a lot of weapons workshops selected from the civilian sector in various places to do backup, called ordnance workshops, so it should not be as difficult as imagined to complete the reply in one month.

It's not the emperor's order that is embarrassing, but the distribution of spoils!

This military department is Yun Yi's brother-in-law, and the reason why the military weapons supervisor was handed over to Yun Yi is that "the fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders".

When the first emperor was there, the imperial court would allocate funds to the military department at the same time as the tasks were assigned, and then the military department would allocate funds to the ordnance supervisor according to the amount of ordnance required. Since the new emperor ascended the throne, he has rectified the rule of officials, and in order to prevent corrupt officials from borrowing and burdening the people, he has changed to directly allocate funds to the ordnance supervisor, but he still can't stop this horse who is lying on the edge of the cylinder, waiting to steal oil and eat!

Ma Xianzhao was also glad that he had made a wise move at the beginning, this trick did not flow into the fields of outsiders, so that he could continue to "feast" without any avoidance!

Although Xia Shouyao's brain is sometimes not very bright, but fortunately, he is down-to-earth and steady, and he has worked in the ordnance supervisor for fifteen years, working hard and complaining, without much fault, and he is also loyal to himself, and he is also tight-lipped about some shady things, so Yun Yi handed over the position of the head of the ordnance superintendent to Xia Shouyao.

Xia Shouyao is also a person who pretends to be confused, Yun Yi wants to tell him, he listens and remembers; If he didn't tell him, he didn't ask around, so he won Yun Yi's trust in him today.

At present, it is natural to take the affairs of the ordnance supervisor as the top priority, Yun Yi ordered Xia Shouyao to take stock of the ordnance everywhere, collect the ordnance needed by the imperial court and put it into storage, and by the way, purchase copper, iron, wood and other raw materials to make ordnance, and he was ready to leave for Shangdu immediately, in addition to supervising the replenishment of ordnance, he also had to discuss with his insatiable uncle how to "corrupt the law".

Led by the family, Xia Shouyao walked through the courtyard and was about to leave the house, and when he walked to a certain wing room across the courtyard, he could still hear the man inside wailing: "Alas...... Hiss...... Get lost! Get lost! Quack! What are you doing here! ”

The door slammed, and a man was pulled out, and the man looked helpless with a look of helplessness, as if he had been poked in the back, shook his head and moved out of the courtyard.

Jia Ding led the way, Xia Shouyao didn't want to stop and inquire more, but he frowned and pondered frequently, and when he came, he also heard the cry of pain coming from across the courtyard, but he didn't expect that it had been so long for a long time, this person was stunned for a while, and he must have been hit hard.

But why is this man's voice so familiar?

Fang was in a hurry to meet the owner and didn't listen carefully, but now it sounds like a ......

"Hey, dare to ask this little brother," Xia Shouyao called out of the house in front of him, and pointed to the cross-courtyard that he had just walked by, "Who lives there?" When I came, I couldn't stop listening to the people in the courtyard, could it be that I was seriously injured by something? ”

Hearing this, the little guy still didn't stop, as if he was afraid of arousing the curiosity of outsiders, but his steps tightened tighter, as if there was something unspeakable, and he turned his head and replied:

"Oh...... That's Fang Ye, huh...... Yesterday I competed with others, and I didn't want to hurt my arm. ”

Xia Shouyao let out an "oh", not suspicious, it was really Fang Ming, but I don't know who he was competing with? He was so badly wounded!

Yun Yi has never liked the ugliness of his family, which can be seen from Xiaorou's incident, so he didn't dare to say much.

Xia Shouyaofu remembered that when he entered the mansion just now, several family members were discussing how to deal with a dead man named Qing'er in the firewood room, and he didn't know who this person was? How did he die? Does it have anything to do with this Fang Ming?

Xia Shouyao was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask more curiously, he had been in the ordnance superintendent for fifteen years, if he compared this little thing with the piles and piles of the ordnance superintendent, it would definitely be a big deal!

……

After sending Xia Shouyao away, Yun Yi returned to the back hall and walked into the courtyard, only to see five or six small servants still chattering, pouting back and forth in the courtyard, some servants held brooms, raised their heads to the sky, kept looking, and the other two or three commanded from the side:

"Huh! Here! Hurry up, here's ......."

"Eh, that again, there, there, there!"

These people scurried around like a bee, holding brooms high, and jumping towards a few locust trees and several eaves in the courtyard, taking turns to greet them.

"That's it! All right! Yun Yi scolded impatiently, so frightened that several people stopped moving, and two of them actually forgot the broom in their hands, and they stood in place in a daze and waited for the old man to continue to speak.

"Are you bombing birds, or are you fighting?! Just now in the front hall, I can hear the voices of a few of you from time to time, and the birds are not as noisy as you, all of them! ”

As soon as Yun Yi entered the front hall to receive Xia Shouyao, these people were called by Mrs. to bomb the birds, only knowing that the old man thought the birds were too noisy, so he simply bombarded it, in short, he didn't let any birds fall in the courtyard.

But this commotion is not small, when Yun Yi explained things to Lao Xia in the front hall, he saw Lao Xia frowning several times, although Yun Yi was embarrassed and difficult to explain, but he didn't know what Lao Xia was thinking about in his heart.

No wonder Xia Shouyao was waiting for Yun Yi in the front hall, frowning for a while, and smiling secretly for a while, it turned out that he had really seen a lot of things when he entered the villa.

Several family members retreated in response, scolding in their hearts:

It was your old man who just let everyone bomb the birds, and now you think everyone is noisy, and you still compare people with birds, can you compare people with birds? Can a man have a bird to make a noise? Oh no, birds can have someone ......, uh, bah, bah! In short, this old man came back to take down people after eating out of the house, which is really unreasonable!

Huh? In other words, is this birdman and birdman just here? Hey......

Sitting on the side and watching his wife and maid help him pack his bags, Yun Yi suddenly realized that he relied on flattery and bribery to undertake the imperial mission of the ordnance supervisor, but now it seems that he has become a hot potato!
