Chapter Seventy-Three: Protect Our Zhang Yuan

Zhuo Wangsun, who is far away in Linqiong, Shu County, has enjoyed the benefits of the lying wheel water row and the steel frying method for several years.

The use of cheap wrought iron to build a high-priced iron pot made Zhuo Wangsun rise from the richest man in Shu County to the richest businessman in the entire Han Dynasty in the past few years.

Except for Zhuo Wenjun's disappearance over the years, it can be said that everything has made him very happy.

However, it seems that the Han does not have the habit of letting the businessmen live well.

"What are you doing here?"

The lieutenant of Shu County with 500 county soldiers surrounded Zhuo's mansion, and there were also county leaders on the side of the iron-smelting workshop who surrounded it, and the county lieutenant of Linqiong took the county soldiers to the first house that Zhang Yuan bought.

"Master Zhuo, we don't mean to hurt you, it's just that the nobles above need some news about Zhang Yuan."

Li Duwei pointed his finger at it as he spoke.

Zhuo Wangsun can't even provoke Wang Ji in Linqiong County, let alone a big man who this captain has to call a nobleman.

"Captain Li, if you want to know something, I must know everything."

Li Duwei didn't know why the nobleman from Chang'an wanted to mention the information of a nobody, but this was not something he could ask too much, he just hoped to do his best to do this errand well, and not be reprimanded in the future.

"From the time Zhang Yuan sold himself to your Zhuo Mansion until he left Linqiong, he told me everything he did.

Chen Zuoshi, you are on the sidelines to record. ”

Li Duwei let the recorded Zuoshi be the student of Wen Weng a few years ago, this person studied for several years after Wen Weng opened the school palace, and now he still starts with a Zuo Shi.

"Whoa."

There were five hundred county soldiers with blades in the outside of the mansion, how dare Zhuo Wangsun make any other moths, he honestly began to tell everything he knew.

Of course, when it comes to the water row of the lying wheel, he didn't say it, Zhang Yuan only gave him drawings at the beginning, and this matter should not be known to outsiders.

"That's all?"

Zhuo Wangsun said very quickly, although Zhang Yuan was sold to Zhuo's mansion as a servant at the age of eleven, but Zhuo Wangsun had nearly a thousand servants and slaves, craftsmen and handymen in the workshop, and more than 3,000 slaves mining in the iron mine, how could he remember a Zhang Yuan.

His memory of Zhang Yuan also began when Zhuo Wenjun brought Zhang Yuan to Zhuo's mansion.

"That's all for Captain Li, Zhang Yuan, this kid hasn't shown anything different from others before, so naturally I didn't notice him."

At this moment, a county soldier suddenly ran in from outside the door and said with a fist at Captain Li.

"Captain, we have searched Zhang Yuan's residence in Zhuo Mansion before, and we have not found anything abnormal."

This lieutenant knows a person's information, and it is like handling a case, and he has to turn over all the human and physical evidence.

"Okay, let's find out here today, the head of the Zhuo family don't go out in the near future, I may have something to ask you."

Once this kind of formation is carried out, Zhuo Wangsun's heart is about to jump out, and he will not die directly if he comes a few more times.

"Captain Li, did Zhang Yuan commit something, our Zhuo family has really broken off relations with him, after he left Linqiong a few years ago, I haven't heard from him again."

"You ask me? I ask who to go, and you do what I tell you. ”

No matter how pitiful the expression on Zhuo Wangsun's face was, Li Duwei still didn't give him any affection at this time.

At the end of the investigation, most of the county soldiers were withdrawn, but a hundred county soldiers were still left, surrounded outside the Zhuo Mansion and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Zhang Yuan's intelligence was sent to Chang'an City in an urgent manner for 600 miles, and it only took eight days from Liu Che's order to investigate to the time when the book with the information was placed in front of Liu Che.

"As you said, this Zhang Yuan is a genius."

What was presented to Liu Che was not only a piece of information, but also a watermelon and a sugar beet.

Zhang Yuan couldn't imagine the resilience of plant growth, he burned the thirty acres of land in Sunjia Village again, and asked Lao Zhao and them to plant corn, but there were still beet seeds and watermelon seeds germinated.

"Your Majesty, the servant thinks that only this Zhuo's iron pot and the method of smelting and forging iron that Zhang Yuan came up with are enough to prove that he is a usable talent."

"I ordered you to summon Zhang Yuan to Weiyang Palace, I want to see him."

Liu Che's thirst for talents far exceeded that of the great men before him.

"Whoa."

"Wait."

Before the Yellow Gate squire walked out of the palace gate, Liu Che stopped him in time.

"Your Majesty, what else do you command?"

"What I said just now, you remember to bury it in your heart, don't say it."

The Yellow Gate Squire was very puzzled, how could the Son of Heaven, whom he served every day, repeat in this matter.

"Your Majesty, what about Zhang Yuan?"

"We'll talk about it later."

After that, Liu Che threw the book into the charcoal furnace in the palace, and then it was as if nothing had happened.

Zhang Yuan had never seen Liu Che before, so he inadvertently received the favor of this young emperor.

Of course, the information in Liu Che's hand is not the same as what Zhang Yuan wrote to Tian Wei, the more part is naturally the watermelon and beets, and the less part is the lying wheel water row that Zhuo Wangsun concealed and did not explain.

The intelligence was burned, which meant that Tian Wei had no way to get a copy, so he could only believe whatever Zhang Yuan wrote.

"I can write poetry, I know how to smelt iron, I can make wood and borrow water, and I also have research on cooking.

Son, it seems that this time our father and wife have picked up a treasure. ”

Zhang Yuancheng showed Tian Wei not only the things he had experienced, but also the steel frying method and the lying wheel water drain, which he either drew pictures or wrote down all the methods, in short, it made Tian Wei feel that he had not deceived him.

"Father, a common man, what is the use of knowing more things.

After all, the methods of these craftsmen are the last class, and the only thing worth mentioning about Zhang Yuan is that he can write two acid poems. ”

What Tian Wei is most worried about is what he can do in a hundred years, a stupid son who is even more uneducated than himself.

"Is there any news from Chang'an?"

Many days have passed, and it is reasonable that Liu Che has already received information from Shu County, why don't the people in the palace have any news at all, this is where Tian Wei is puzzled, without the information in Liu Che's hands, he can't trust Zhang Yuan 100%.

"The child went to Changle Palace yesterday to see the Queen Mother, and when he passed by Weiyang Palace, he asked about the Yellow Gate Order, and there was indeed urgent information from Shu County sent to Weiyang Palace, but it is said that His Majesty burned it."

Tian Wei likes singing, dancing, music and beautiful women, Liu Che was sent to the palace by Tian Wei from the Yellow Gate Order to the Yellow Gate Advocacy to please the Queen Mother, so he can know so clearly about Liu Che's affairs.
