Chapter 157: The stammering Ma Jun

"Lord, twenty questions are too many..."

Xiao He rolled his eyes.

He knew that Lu Bu wanted to complete the propaganda report through the scientific examination. But asking students to write 20 essays to complete the exam is too much.

Lu Bu said: "This is a test for them. If you can't even bear this little suffering, what kind of official are you going to be? ”

Xiao He was speechless...

Lu Bu raised his voice and continued: "In view of the fact that there are too many questions in the exam, it can be completed in ten days, one exam each in the morning and afternoon. During this period, room and board are all-inclusive. Regardless of whether the article is selected or not, as long as you finish it carefully, you can receive a hardship fee of 500 yuan. ”

Hearing this, the students exchanged heads and talked about it. Some of them are very happy. Because you can make money and subsidize your family. But those with better family backgrounds are complaining about hardship.

Lu Bu didn't bother to pay attention to them, and handed the list of topics to Xiao He.

Xiao He said helplessly: "Okay, it's according to the lord's wishes." ”

In the next few days, the scientific expedition was in full swing. The students didn't even have time to eat or sleep, and they spent all day thinking about how to complete those 20 articles.

Xiao He took a group of officials and was responsible for reading the file.

Follow Lu Bu's instructions and mark each test paper. As long as it exceeds 1600 points, it can be retained. Find a good article and send it to Lu Bu for reference.

And in the past few days, Lu Bu has not been idle.

first helped Zhang Fan and Zhang Feng to open a bank.

Then the banknote was redesigned. At the same time, he also had to review the test papers sent by Xiao He and finalize which twenty articles to use in the end. There are too many things, and my busy feet don't touch the ground.

Yan Zhi took a group of people to the Nancheng Printing Factory and found Lu Bu: "My lord, there are thirty-seven carpenters who can carve, and they all have been brought. ”

"Come with me."

Lu Bu nodded, led them, and entered the backyard.

In the courtyard, dozens of tables and chairs are placed, and on each table, there is a pair of knives, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and a boxy camphor wood.

Lu Bu said: "You have to carve the seal of the 'People's Bank of Huaxia' within an hour. Whoever carves the best, I will make him the steward of the Shouchun Printing Factory. Specialized in engraving and printing. Wages have risen fivefold! ”

"Thank you, General!" All were ecstatic.

"Let's get started." Lu Bu waved his hand.

Thirty-seven carpenters, finding their seats, began to carve.

Yan Zhi took out a book from his cuff and said, "Lord, this is the material that is needed to transform the northern city." ”

"Buy whatever you need, don't show me. I want results. Lu Bu didn't squint, paying attention to the carpenters in the yard.

Hikochi: "... ”

"You mean to say, there's no money?" Lu Bu suddenly reacted.

"yes." Yan Zhi nodded again and again and said, "There are really no materials..." ”

"At the time of the court meeting, I have already made it very clear that in a month, I will give you 70 million, and now it is only a few days? Moreover, can you say something in the future, and don't always let me guess. ”

Yanzhi's personality made Lu Bu a little disliked. Maybe he was too cautious and was always afraid of offending Lu Bu. Every time I spoke, I thought about it again and again, and I made sure that there was no problem before I spoke.

As everyone knows, Lu Bu is the most annoying of this.

"Yes." Hikochi looked frustrated.

In the blink of an eye, an hour later.

Thirty-seven carpenters, all of whom completed their own work.

Lu Bu inspected them one by one and selected the best ones to retain.

However, after looking left and right, after walking around, none of them satisfied him.

Although the carving is also good, it is still a long way from the level he expected.

"Lord, how are they carving?" Hikochi walked over.

Lu Bu shook his head, a look of disappointment.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.

Lu Bu asked, "Is there anyone else who can carve?" ”

"Nope." Hikochi replied.

In fact, there is another one, but that age is too young and no one has been found, so I don't bother to mention it.

"Looks like we'll have to think of something else." Lu Bu's eyebrows tightened, and he thought in his heart: "A carpenter is always a carpenter, and he can't become a master carver." ”

He had already thought of this. But the time is too tight, and there is a fluke, so with the mentality of giving it a try, what if a miracle happens? There were no miracles and no surprises.

"I... I, I'm late. Just then, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy ran into the yard and stammered.

"Who is he?" Lu Bu asked Yanzhi.

Yan Zhi said: "Back to the lord, he is also a carpenter, and he was not on the construction site just now, so he didn't follow." ”

Lu Bu walked over: "What's your name?" ”

"I... My name is Ma Jun. Ma Jun said with a big grin. He didn't salute Lu Bu either.

Yan Zhi scolded: "There are no rules, don't you know how to salute?" Standing in front of you is General Lu. ”

"What do you say your name is? Ma Jun? Lu Bu couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and stepped forward and asked.

"It's... Yes, General Hui, the villain's surname is Ma, and the first name ... Name. Ma Jun said in a slur manner.

According to historical records, Ma Jun's family was poor since he was a child, with a stuttering problem, and he was not good at talking, but he was good at ingenuity. The guide car has been restored; The improvement of the silk weaving machine, the Zhuge crossbow, and the invention of the keel waterwheel, the rotary stone machine, etc., made a great contribution to the development of science.

Lu Bu didn't expect that he would unintentionally meet a great talent.

"You can carve?"

"Back... Back to the general, the villain will... Will be a little. ”

Lu Bu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, you can try it." ”

"General Xie."

Ma Jun found a place and began carving.

Lu Bu thought to himself, no matter how Ma Jun carved, he must reuse it! Because Ma Jun's talent is not in carving, but in inventing and creating. It's also very important to him.

After Ma Jun sat down, he did not rush to use the knife. Instead, a thin thread is put into the inkstone, and after the thread is wet and blackened, it is bounced on the surface of the camphor wood, and after dozens of consecutive plays, it is seen that the entire camphor wood is covered with black lines.

Then, he picked up a knife and swiped it quickly along the thin lines.

Every time I go under the knife, the force is very light, but the speed is fast. After only listening to a few clicks, the word 'Hua' was engraved. At a glance, Lu Bu was obviously better than those carpenters.

"Come and see how people carve it." Lu Bu beckoned around. All the carpenters gathered around in amazement to watch the horses carve the seals.

Yan Zhi also had an incredible look on his face, staring at Ma Jun's hands and working quickly on the camphor wood.
