Chapter 7 Zheng Xuan's name
Cao Ren's steel-making furnace finally exploded, and when he built these steel-making furnaces, in order to build a few more, he also built very intensively, this next one exploded, and immediately exploded with the next one, and the power of the explosion of the eight steel-making furnaces was simply terrifying, and there was nothing left in the new city, including the city wall and the houses of the Yuan family.

Cao Ang immediately sent people to summon Yuan Yun and the others to come, but what he didn't expect was that the people sent out had already arrived less than a moment after they went out.
Cao Ang had already transferred all the gunpowder troops to Xudu, his own mansion had also moved back to his mansion in Xudu, and the gunpowder workshop had returned to the Hedao military village again, so he was not in a hurry at this moment, and he was completely calm and composed.
Yuan Yun and Dian Man comfortably leaned on the recliner in Cao Ang's study, both of them looked happy, because when Xincheng had an accident this time, almost all the things that had been established before were destroyed, and even if Cao Ren was not killed this time, it was an unforgivable crime.
Cao Ang smiled, then pulled out the big sword hanging on the side of the bed, danced it in his hand a few times, and then returned the scabbard with satisfaction.
The center of this big sword is concave with a hole, which was cut by Cao Cao's Yitian Sword before, originally Yuan Yun said that he would build a new one for him, but who knew that Cao Ang was unwilling, and still used this defective one.
"Brother Yun, my father will definitely invite us to ask him for questioning in a while, with such a loud explosion, Xincheng is estimated to have been razed to the ground now." After Cao Ang finished speaking, he had already sat back at his desk.
Before Yuan Yun could answer, Dianman sighed and said, "Those are all things that we worked hard to build, and now they are all destroyed, which really makes people feel uncomfortable." β
Yuan Yun shook his head and said: "No, no, no, when we built the new city before, we never thought that it would develop so fast, so many of the constructions were out of date, and this time it was completely razed to the ground, and when we rebuilt it again, it was equivalent to saving a lot of effort, thanks to Cao Rencai, haha." β
Dian Man thought about it and thought it was right, so he also laughed with Yuan Yun.
Yuan Yun calmed down Dianman, and then continued the topic of Cao Ang just now: "If your father recruits us, we will pretend that we don't know anything, anyway, we have transferred all the manpower very early." β
Cao Ang pondered for a moment and muttered, "I can't guess my father's decision, but I'm a little worried that my father will come to convict Brother Yun." β
Yuan Yun was stunned, shook his hand and smiled: "This time I rolled as far as I wanted, Cao Ren was very strict in the construction of those steelmaking workshops, I wanted to send people to peek at it several times, but he was stopped by his personal guards, and finally it took a lot of effort to find out that a total of eight steelmaking furnaces were built, and now the steelmaking furnaces have exploded, can you still blame me?" β
Cao Ang smiled and said, "That's the best, Brother Yun is completely excluded, even if someone deliberately finds fault, we have a lot of reasons to fight back." β
Yuan Yun looked at Cao Ang's happy appearance, and felt a little uncomfortable, so he said with a smile: "Before, I was worried that Brother Cao Ang would worry about Cao Ren's safety, and I was afraid that you would have a contradiction in your heart, but now that I see that you don't care, I am relieved." β
Cao Ang shook his head with a wry smile when he heard this, he was not a stupid person, how could he not understand the meaning behind Yuan Yun's words, so he did not hide it, and then Yuan Yun's words said: "Does Brother Yun think that I am too affectionate?" After all, Cao Ren is also my clan uncle no matter what he says, and I always think that his death is really unreasonable. β
Cao Ang paused slightly, then stood up and walked to the window of the study, and then continued: "I am also helpless, now that the new city is getting bigger and bigger, there are more and more people eating with me Cao Ang, in addition to a few of you, there are also Zheng Xuan, Hua Tuo, Zhang Liao, Jia Xu and many others, not to mention those masters, these are the core strength in my Cao Ang's hands."
Once I fail, Cao Ren will inevitably let these people die without a place to be buried, I have to do this, Brother Yun also saw it, Cao Ren didn't kill each other, if we didn't deal with it properly, I'm afraid that many people would have to turn into ashes. β
Yuan Yun suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, it seems that it is not Cao Ang who has a problem, but he has changed a lot, when did this start?
By the way, from the beginning of passing Tongguan, what I saw and heard along the way was like walking in hell, and countless misery were hitting my heart as a modern person, so I would have compassion that I shouldn't have.
It's just that I'm really stupid, can I give Cao Ren compassion? The other party is afraid that it is not himself, but he is worried that the other party will be seriously injured, so compared with each other, his own compulsion is obviously not enough, or some women's kindness.
Yuan Yun secretly thought about it in his heart, and the corners of his mouth immediately drew a beautiful arc, and then he saluted Cao Ang and said: "It seems that I am too naΓ―ve to think, if I can't think of Cao Ang's big brother, I will become very spicy, and I will hurt my own people sooner or later." β
Cao Ang nodded and smiled: "To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself, we must treat Cao Ren as a pure enemy, so that there will be no miscalculation, Brother Yun remember." β
Yuan Yun was taught again, and there was a cold sweat on his back, I am afraid that he has been peaceful recently, so he has returned to the values of a modern person, this is the way to die, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, you still look at things with the sentiments of modern people, and your death must be very miserable.
I am not alone now, with a huge family business and so many close people around me, what if I become a demon for them?
At this time, I only heard a guard outside the door report that Zheng Xuan was coming.
After a while, Zheng Xuan appeared in the study, first glanced at the few boys in front of him, and then said with a straight face: "The new city was bombed to the ground, and the results we worked hard to build before were destroyed, is this a good thing that a few of you have done?" β
Yuan Yun was shocked in his heart, thinking that he was going to be unlucky, although Zheng Xuan always looked like a charity on weekdays, but if he was angry, it would definitely be a disaster.
Yuan Yun thought about it again and again, and was about to answer when Zheng Xuan stopped him, only to see him look at Dianman, and then said: "This is the little general who is honest, you come and talk to the old man." β
Dian Man was embarrassed for a while, pondered for a long time, and finally could only honestly explain: "We did expect this before, but there was no squeak, but it must not be said that we participated in the destruction, this is absolutely true." β
Zheng Xuanbai's white eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and just when Yuan Yun's heart was pounding, the old man suddenly smiled, and then stretched out his thumb and said, "Well done." β
After saying these three words, Zheng Xuan smiled more comfortably, patted the table a few times and said: "Cao Ren, this stupid person, will only get a lot of those steelmaking workshops and blacksmith workshops, what does he want to do, he just wants to make a large number of weapons, but he doesn't think about the workshops in the people's livelihood at all, such a person has mastered the new city, the old man would rather destroy it all, you boys handle it well, the old man has been venting his sulking recently, and he is happy." β
Yuan Yun's faces were twitching, they thought they were going to take Zheng Xuan's education class, but who knew that it was a commendation meeting.
"Old man Zheng Xuan, you are relieved to live in the boy's house, when will we rebuild the new city, you will come out and be busy again, if the imperial court does not plan to completely hand over the new city to us, let this matter become a permanent example, then we will continue to ......let it blow up."
Syllable!
A crisp sound came out, Yuan Yun only felt that the back of his head was hot, and quickly fled to the side, looking at Zheng Xuan inexplicably.
Zheng Xuan shook his hand very unhappily, as if he was disgusted that the back of Yuan Yun's head was too hard, and it was not easy to fight, and after seeing Yuan Yun's expression again, he said unhappily: "Still fried?" Have you ever calculated how much food and how many people died in this bombing? So this time, we must get things done, and we must make the court pay attention to it, and no one can play with the real city. β
After speaking, Zheng Xuan was silent for a moment, then got up and said: "The old man will go to Cao Sikong's place, as long as the old man pulls down his face, I believe it should be done, but I don't know how the old man will be evaluated in the history books in the future, it's a pity." β
Seeing Zheng Xuan coming out of the study, Yuan Yuncai touched the back of his head and wondered: "How did Old Man Zheng Xuan talk about the history books?" β
When Cao Ang heard this, he bowed deeply to Zheng Xuan, who walked out, and then turned to Yuan Yun and explained: "Before, Zheng Xuan asked my father about the construction of the new city, and my father only asked who owned the new city, and my father meant that the new city must be under the control of the Cao family, but the old man Zheng Xuan stubbornly replied that the achievements of the new city must be owned by the people of the world, so my father minded so much, and always wanted to control the new city in his own hands.
And Cao Ren is a good choice, he is a rough person, and he will not take Zheng Xuan and others in his eyes, so when he carries out my father's orders, he will definitely not care about anyone, this time Cao Ren only built a steelmaking workshop and a blacksmith workshop after taking over the new city, and it is estimated that there is also my father's instruction.
The words of the old man Zheng Xuan just now are actually a compromise with my father for the sake of the new city, and in the future, my father's orders can be more easily delegated to the new city, and will no longer be hindered, and the manufacture of ordnance will inevitably expand, such a large-scale manufacture of killing equipment, Zheng Xuan, as the person who single-handedly established the new city, will naturally not lose a good reputation. β
After explaining this, Cao Ang smiled bitterly and said: "In fact, in my heart, I also hope to manufacture ordnance on a large scale, but I also understand that blindly only producing weapons, Xincheng can't play half of its role at all, but I understand that my father may never understand, it seems that we will move closer to ordnance manufacturing in the future, and investment must also be based on this matter." β
Yuan Yun snorted, it didn't seem to be much pressure, because Cao Ang's worry was the productivity of Xincheng, and it was a little difficult to supply the gunpowder army in the past, but now he had to supply the entire Cao army, which was indeed even more of a headache.
It's just that what Cao Ang doesn't know is that once the construction of Luoyang, Xuzhou, Beihai, and the three new cities is completed, everything will become an industrialized assembly line, and this super-large machine will not run.
Dianman became excited at this time, waved his fist and said: "That's fine, if the ordnance is strengthened, we can arm more gunpowder brothers, and then we can take them to sweep the world." β
Cao Ang couldn't bear to spoil the dream of Dianman, so he could only smile bitterly and shake his head, if Xincheng only produces weapons that cannot be sold, where can it maintain a huge operating capital, and it doesn't plan to give more money and food depending on the meaning of the imperial court, that is, everything depends on Xincheng itself.
When he was annoyed, he found that Yuan Yun was leaning back in the recliner with his signature evil smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, which suddenly made Cao Ang feel refreshed, so he hurriedly asked, "Brother Yun, does he have any good ideas to solve this dilemma?" β
