Dongmen was in a state of high tension at the moment, and he dared to really drink the good-looking liquid.

Seeing this, Yang Hao did not have any special mood fluctuations, and asked: "Dongmen, I heard Zhi'er say that you have a lot of opinions on the bridge, if your answer can satisfy this king today, this king can not only make you an official, but also reduce the punishment of your fellow clan." ”

When Dongmen heard this, his spirit suddenly burst, he came all the way to Chang'an for this, listening to Yang Haoruo's words, he hurriedly said: "Dongmen will answer my king's question truthfully." ”

Yang Hao nodded: "The map you draw, this king has seen it, according to your imagination, it is nothing more than splicing together one part after another, this method can be a small river, if you want to help such a big river, how to deal with it." ”

Dongmen said: "The king doesn't know, the bridge I made, even if it is only large in size, can withstand several people trampling without breaking, if it is built in this way, it is nothing more than to make it bigger, use more materials, and the water is naturally not a problem." ”

Yang Hao frowned when he heard this, and said coldly: "Have you ever thought that with the increase of the bridge, there is a limit to the bearing capacity of wood, what you are talking about is nothing more than making an arch bridge, that according to the king's view, it is not suitable for building a bridge, young people had better not talk too much, this king does not need people who can only boast." ”

At this time, Yang Zhi on the side explained to the prisoner of Dongmen: "Father, the model made by Dongmen has been seen by the child, and it is indeed extremely strong, even if it is made larger, it can be used." ”

Yang Hao said: "Since you are so confident in your design, I can give you a chance to prove it, if you can build a bridge ten meters long and can bear thousands of people, this king can apologize to you, if you can't do it, then I'm sorry, the official of Qi is not something that anyone can do." ”

Dongmen's face turned red when he heard this, and he wanted to refute Yang Hao, but he was a little shaken for a while.

Ten meters is how long it is, and he can naturally understand it.

Bearing thousands of people, even if he is confident, he doesn't dare to pat his chest at all, and promise that it will be realized.

What Yang Hao wanted was not an arch bridge for pedestrians only, but a flat bridge that could pass through the tracks.

And he knew very well that a pure wooden arch bridge would not meet his needs.

Not to mention some clever ancient natives, even those bridge experts in later generations want to build a bridge across the river with wood, it is definitely an extremely difficult thing.

Dongmen's face turned from red to white, and he said a little dejectedly: "The grass people can't do it." ”

Yang Hao didn't say anything sarcastic.

Instead, he said: "There are people outside the world, there are heavens outside the sky, don't be complacent with some of your talents, I can give you another chance, I can make an exception for you to study in the Academy of Sciences for a year, if within a year, you can't give another satisfactory answer, then it proves that you are just a mediocre person." ”

Yang Zhi suddenly looked at the east gate with some shock, where is the Academy of Sciences, he already knows it when he comes back.

This is the place where the top talents of Qi country gather, and it has mastered the most advanced technology of Qi country, especially theoretical knowledge, to the extent that it is superb.

Yang Hao can let a flat-headed person directly enter there to study, which is enough to see that Yang Hao is extremely sure of the wisdom of the East Gate.

Seeing that Dongmen still had a desperate expression, Yang Zhi suddenly became angry.

He said coldly: "I'm still stunned, and I don't want to thank the king soon." ”

Seeing Yang Zhi's anxious appearance, although he was still disappointed in his heart, Dongmen still bowed down to Yang Hao and thanked him.

Yang Zhichai is good, Yang Hao really appreciates this person's talent, not to mention anything else, just that bridge drawing, it is better than the vast majority of people in this era, this is a smart person, Yang Hao is convinced of this.

And this person looks like he is in his early twenties, he is in the prime of life, and this person can make friends with Yang Zhi, as long as he is cultivated properly, after he becomes an ancient man in the future, this person should be a good helper for Yang Zhi.

The reason why he deliberately belittled it just now is just to sharpen the edges and corners of this person, if a smart person does not know how to restrain his edge, it is not certain whether he can live to become a talent.

Especially in a country like Qi where the official system is gradually improving, although he has tried his best to avoid the occurrence of cliques and personal interests, some things will not be transferred because of people's ideas.

For the old fritters who have known about the officialdom for many years, it is easier to deal with a stunned young man who doesn't know anything than to pinch a little chicken to death.

The suppression of Dongmen is actually that Yang Hao doesn't want such a talent to die early because of his sharpness.

Although letting Dongmen enter the Academy of Sciences does not mean that he can be treated as a researcher, after Dongmen thanked him, Yang Hao added that his authority is limited to the relevant books of the Academy of Sciences, and will not teach him, and Yang Zhi is not allowed to be responsible for his daily expenses.

In order not to starve him to death, Yang Hao arranged a job for him to clean the academy of sciences.

In doing so, it fully embodies that the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first work hard to work their muscles and bones, and the small trees are not repaired and not straight, and people do not repair the wise sayings.

Yang Zhi wanted to fight for the East Gate again, but was ordered to be evicted by Yang Hao.

Yang Zhi had no choice but to leave the palace with Dongmen.

"Brother Dongmen, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect things to be like this."

Dongmen was a little lonely and said: "Your Highness dare not be like this, how can the grass people be so virtuous, can be favored by His Highness, I have long been grateful, this is my talent is not enough to satisfy the king, it is the East Gate ashamed of His Highness's cultivation." ”

Yang Zhidao: "Dongmen, you must not be resentful of the king because of this, do you know what kind of place the Academy of Sciences is, even I may not enter there, my father can let you enter and leave the Academy of Sciences freely for a year, it is enough to see that my father values you, you must not let me down, I believe in your talent, you don't let me down." ”

Dongmen was a little shocked when he heard this, he had just come to Chang'an for two days, how could he know this, seeing that Yang Zhi said so solemnly, he finally understood that the place he was going to in the future may be a very remarkable place.

"Your Highness, rest assured, if I say that within a year, I will not be able to fulfill the king's request, and the east gate will be shameless to live in the world, so I should hang myself here."

Yang Zhi nodded and said: "Okay, what you want is to be so determined, these days you will live in my house first, and in the future, you will go to the Academy of Sciences, if you encounter difficulties for no reason, Dink will come to report to me, and I will definitely seek justice for you." ”

"East Gate, thank Your Highness for your kindness."

The east gate knelt down on one knee and bowed.

In the next few years, in order to repay Yang Zhi's kindness, Dongmen really did his best for Daqi and died, and the matter of the monarch and the minister knowing each other was widely spread for future generations.
