Lu Qian hugged his arms and quietly listened to the chaotic narration of several gangs.

Then the guy nodded, and said to the green skins:

"Send Yanai home first, don't go out on the street for the time being."

"I don't, I don't, I don't!"

Gao Yanei kicked his legs and cried out in front of everyone:

"I want that beautiful girl! I'm going to kill that bastard who beat me! ”

Lu Qian's forehead was bruised.

How can such a thing be said in the open air?

But he didn't dare to disobey the second ancestor, so he had to squat in front of Gao Yanei, and persuaded Haosheng: "Isn't it just a little lady, and your subordinates will definitely let Yanai succeed." ”

"Really?"

"Really, the guy who beat the yaman, his subordinates will definitely kill him within three days." Lu Qian whispered: "It's just that this kind of thing can't be said here, please go back to the house first and let your subordinates arrange it." ”

"Okay, three days, I'll want that little lady in three days!"

"Yes, yes, three days!"

Lu Qian felt like he was coaxing a child, or a super large bear child.

However, it is not good if this bear child is not coaxed, after all, Gao Yanei is the moth of Lu Qian's boss, and if he is not served well, his future development in the army will be a big trouble.

Lu Qian didn't want to be confined to a low-level position like Yu Hou forever, for a better future, he was willing to sacrifice his dignity to devote himself to currying favor with a mentally handicapped second ancestor like Gao Yanei, and naturally he didn't care about sacrificing the lives of strangers or the dignity of his friend's wife.

Xu Shiyang didn't return to Wen's house immediately, but after experiencing such a thing once, the time for leisurely shopping could only end.

He hired a mule cart and went with Zhao Lin to a neighborhood outside Lin'an City, where the craftsmen of the Ordnance Prison lived.

Here, he talked to a few masters of the Great Zhou Weapons Prison, of course, it was impossible to recruit them, Xu Shiyang couldn't get enough benefits, and people didn't fall to the point where they had to risk their lives to go to Jiangbei to eat Xu's meal.

Therefore, Xu Shiyang did not speak directly, so as not to humiliate himself.

However, these craftsmen who belonged to the state had some advantages, they could rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and they could take some scraps from the ordnance supervisor (sometimes not leftovers) back to do some private work and earn some money and food.

The craftsmanship of these craftsmen is no problem, and with the support of materials, as long as the money is enough, they can realize many of Xu Shiyang's ideas.

For example, Xu Shiyang promised the craftsmen here to buy all the iron pipes that conform to the standards, as long as the tolerances do not exceed his own requirements, he will not refuse at all.

The craftsmen didn't know what the pipes were for, but since they weren't weapons or contraband items like bows and swords, they didn't have any mental barriers to doing them.

Xu Shiyang asked them to make 100 iron pipes that met the requirements, and then they all shipped them to the Wen family, and Xu Shiliu received them, and the project was valid for a long time.

For this kind of risk-free project, the price given by the craftsmen is relatively low, but Xu Shiyang has repeatedly emphasized that all iron pipes must be attached to the tolerance requirements, otherwise they will be regarded as waste products and will not be paid.

……

Evening.

In the Fan Building, the most famous Ji Pavilion in Lin'an City, Wen Zhongzheng was drinking and having fun with some young officials of the main battle faction.

The so-called Fan Tower is not the first Ji Pavilion in the world in Bianjing City, and the Fan Tower has long been destroyed by the military disaster.

Now this Fan Building, after the Great Zhou Dynasty moved south, moved to Lin'an by the original owner of Fan Tower, so it is called Xiao Fan Building.

Although it is no longer the original beauty, it can still sit firmly in the first place in the world, and it can still attract the hearts of many talents.

At this time, it was already three rounds of drinking, and an official of the main battle faction who embraced Mei Ji asked Wen Zhongdao: "Brother Wen, I heard that the martial artist from Jiangbei who lives in your house is causing trouble again today?" ”

"That's Se-ryu's brother." Wen Zhong smiled: "Brother Weng can't say that about him. ”

"It's just a martial artist."

The person who spoke was Weng Shuping, and his current official position was to give the matter to Dr. Taichang, a minor official of the seventh grade.

But no matter how young he is, he is also a civil official, and he naturally looks down on a martial artist like Xu Shiyang.

He had drunk with Xu Shiyang a few times before, and every time he ordered to drink, when it was Xu Shiyang's turn, this guy drank directly, which seemed incompatible with the game in which a group of scribes participated, but this reckless man was still among the ministers of Wen, so Weng Shuping felt more and more that Xu Shiyang was unpleasant.

"It's true that he is a martial artist, but now the imperial court needs this kind of martial artist who can fight."

文中 says:

"If everyone can only talk about it, when will my father's wish for the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains be realized?"

"Brother Wen, I'm afraid that having such a good fighter is not a good thing for the imperial court."

weng shuping says:

"If you talk about martial arts, all Tartars are martial artists, but what the wolf ambitions of Tartars are, we all see it very clearly."

"The Xu family is in Jiangbei, recruiting troops everywhere, and we have to supply them with military food and clothing in Jiangnan, if there is no means to restrain them, I am afraid that they will become another Tartar in the future!"

What he said is the traditional reason for the literati to suppress the martial arts - Xiucai has not been able to rebel for ten years, and it is not necessary for the martial artists to rebel!

For the ruling class, this is a very realistic and valid reason.

"The Xu family has been persisting in Jiangbei for more than ten years, and they have not taken a penny of money and food from the imperial court, such a good man, why is Brother Weng so innocent!"

Zhang Mingyi, who has a good relationship with Xu Shiyang, said dissatisfiedly:

"Can't I have loyal and patriotic people in Da Zhou?"

"Hmph, the Jinshi who straddles the horse on the royal street is really a hero! That Xu Shiyang is just a reckless man! ”

Weng Shuping no longer paid attention to Zhang Mingyi, turned his head to Wen Zhong and continued: "I admire Brother Shiliu's literary talent very much, but this Xu Shiyang ......, Brother Wen gave him a lot of books, right?" See if he reads it. ”

Wen Zhong didn't speak, just sighed and shook his head gently.

"See?" Weng Shuping said to a group of colleagues from the main battle faction: "I don't study for the generals, but I'm just a horse!" ”

"Brother Weng, do you think we shouldn't support the Xu family?" Wen Zhong asked.

"We should support it, but we shouldn't support Xu Shiyang."

Weng Shuping replied:

"I think that the Xu family can persist in Jiangbei precisely because there are Jinshi like Xu Gongmuhe and scribes like Brother Shiliu!"

"We, the children of saints, should let the Xu family walk on the right path."

"How can this be done?" Wen Zhong asked.

"Since we have the support of the Xu family's grain and grass, then the Xu family's army should obey our orders." Weng Shuping drank another glass of wine, and shouted with some emotion: "We should send a prison army to Jiangbei!" ”

"In addition, I remember that the Xu family is not only a Jinshi of Xu Gongmuhe, but also Xu Gongmujiang, right?"

"Yes, Xu Shiyang's uncle, Xu Gongmujiang and his younger brother are both Jinshi in the ninth year of Qingyuan."

"Isn't that easy?"

Weng Shuping smiled:

"For these martial artists, the size is the right way!"
