Zhong Lixiang had a small purple flower on the top of his head, but Xiao Huan looked at it and sneered, muttering in a low voice that it was a snake tail grass, worthless, not rare, and not for nothing.

Chen Mu came to the house and sang to Xiang Dangyang first.

made the old eunuch wait for a long time, but Chen Mu had no apologies on his face.

Although the old eunuch was dissatisfied, he could only return the salute with a smile.

Take a seat.

Chen Mu handed the emperor's letter to Hanxiang, and Hanxiang handed it to Xiang Dangyang, and after Xiang Dangyang browsed it, his face was slightly embarrassed, but he gently put down the letter and didn't say anything.

Chen Mu poured himself a drink, and stretched out his hand to show his intention to be yang. took a sip of wine before saying:

"I won't interfere in what the prison army should do in the future. I can ignore the transfer of the food supervisor, the staff general, and the deputy general's secretary, but the chief general and the secretary have been with me for so long, and they have already mastered many military secrets, so they can't be transferred casually. I also hope to raise my noble hand to the prison army. ”

Xiang Dangyang smiled: "If General Chen had said this earlier, the old man would not have troubled His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Chen Mu laughed dryly: "It's all for the sake of Dunhuang's better tomorrow." ”

Chen Mu's words almost choked Xiang Dangyang.

Then all that left was eating meat and drinking wine, and there was not a word.

Zhong Lixiang didn't understand what was said here, so he just sat aside and ate meat silently. The girl didn't look very happy, maybe she was still complaining in her heart - Chen Mu said that he would barbecue meat for me to eat, it seems that this liar is lying again.

Hanxiang saw that Chen Mu brought Zhong Lixiang back, and her mood fell to the bottom in an instant, but she still remained dignified. The kind of special temperament that can only be found in high-end Qingqi can't say whether it is vulgar or elegant, in short, it makes people look very useful. Hanxiang girl is especially good at dressing, and her clothes are superhuman, as if she is a ball of flowers sitting in the crowd.

A very dull dinner party ended like this, and the old mink temple felt bored, and got up to take his leave.

Chen Mu sent Xiang Dangyang to the door, said goodbye, and came back in stride, and said to Hanxiang: "Prepare a room for Miss Zhongli." ”

Hanxiang's face was slightly red, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes.

Chen Mu smiled and said: "If there is an emperor, there must be a female Ying." But not insatiable. ”

Hanxiang burst into tears and smiled: "Uncle treats Xiang Jian Jun like this today, it will be difficult for you to get along with each other in the future." ”

Chen Mu smiled bitterly: "Originally, people from two camps were hypocritically polite, and it was not interesting. If it is in the Central Plains, I will naturally give him a little more face. But now this is Dunhuang. The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, so I can't be too polite with him. Now that the Ninth Division of Xuanjia is stationed in Dunhuang, I will not do anything to him at this time, and when the Xuanjia Army leaves Dunhuang in the future, I will talk to him well. ”

Then Chen Mu left, and before leaving, he gave Hanxiang a flower.

Hanxiang was careful and found that the flower that Chen Mu gave her was the same as the flower on Zhong Lixiang's head, but the flower in her hand was bigger and more colorful.

——

There was good news from the sapper factory, saying that the "incense machine" had finally been successfully developed, and that one machine could spin eight threads at the same time, and if the strength was large enough, it could be increased indefinitely.

Hearing the news, Chen Mu was in a good mood and hurriedly ran over to take a look.

The results were so satisfying that mass production was requested. At least a hundred of these machines will be produced. Gao Zhuang was responsible for this matter, but at this time, Gao Zhuang's injury had not yet healed, Chen Mu still insisted on letting Gao Zhuang be responsible, Chen Mu said: He is worthy of trust.

This sentence reached Gao Zhuang's ears, and Gao Zhuang came to the cotton mill with illness. He only has ten soldiers under him, but all ten of them have one characteristic, they don't like to talk. Chen Mu promoted Gao Zhuang to the rank of captain, with a centurion order, and he could go to the lame man to transfer people at any time.

Chen Mu said to Gao Zhuang: "After the machine is produced, don't be in a hurry to produce cotton thread. I'm going to wait, wait for news from Yuan Hong's side. ”

Gao Zhuang didn't ask much, and nodded yes.

Chen Mu smiled and left, followed by Zhang Han and Zhong Lixiang, Zhong Lixiang didn't understand what Chen Mu was doing, and she didn't ask.

Xiaohuan was so annoyed that Zhong Lixiang walked all the way, far away from Zhong Lixiang, and walked with several servants.

Miss Zhongli is not easy to mess with, if you ignore me, I will ignore you, and the two of them are racing together.

As soon as Chen Mu returned to the house, the old man of Adjara came to see Chen Mu, and Chen Mu warmly entertained the old man of Adjara to drink tea, and the old man was very grateful.

"General, according to your orders, there is a cart of saltpeter powder ready, where you plan to send it, we will send it to you now."

Chen Mu smiled: "You just have to continue to produce, I will let Zhang Han go to the mine with you, how to transport, listen to him." ”

Old man Hazard nodded.

After a cup of tea, Chen Mu shouted to Zhang, "Do as planned." ”

Zhang Han took the order and set off with the old man of Eden Hazard.

Only Chen Mu, Hanxiang, and Xiaomei were left in the house.

Han Xiang gathered her sideburns: "Miss Zhongli runs around on the roof every night in the middle of the night, I really don't know what she is going to do." ”

Xiaomei immediately chimed in: "That's it, like a crazy girl." Don't be ill-intentioned. ”

When the two of them formed an alliance, Chen Mu really didn't pay much attention to it. He smiled and said, "Don't reject her." If I tell you about her story, I'm sure you'll be in tears. I know, you're all kind. ”

Hanxiang bowed her head and said nothing.

Xiaomei's big eyes squinted, but she didn't speak.

"I brought her here, and I gave her a task." Chen Mu had an apology in the corner of his eyes: "The task is quite dangerous, and sometimes I don't even want her to do it." ”

Speaking of this, Chen Mu didn't say any more.

It wasn't until the lame man walked in that Chen Mu asked, "How is the tunnel dug?" ”

The cripple sat down and poured himself a drink: "The bug factory is done." However, it is not easy to dig under the building of the Ninth Division. It is said that the stone was dug up. I'm going to buy a few more old houses and try it in a different direction. However, in that way, the amount of work is too large, and it is easy to be discovered. There are a few capable people in the Ninth Division, and we can't be too careless. ”

Chen Mu frowned: "If it's really hard to dig, stop for the time being." ”

The cripple pondered, "I think I'll be able to dig it through." ”

Chen Mu nodded and said, "Now I need some sulfur." ”

"Brimstone?" The cripple wondered.

"But I never found the sulphur mine. But I heard from Azar that there is one in the south of the Qur'an. I'm wondering how I can buy it. ”

"What do you want these things for?"

"Make a few fire thunders. Large fire mines. That's what I thought of after I heard you were digging tunnels. At that time, the tunnel itself will be a fire thunder tube. Chen Mu rubbed his nose.

The lame man's eyes were gloomy: "You are much more ruthless than me." ”

Chen Mu waved his hand: "That's just the last step, I didn't say that I have to do that, I just prepared first." I don't want to blow up the building of the Xuanjia Army, but the bug factory is very likely to blow up. ”

The cripple looked at Chen Mu with a wicked smile.
