Chen Mao saw that these literati were too capable of speaking, and they could not offend both sides of the big sikong, and it was difficult for him to convince him. Chen Mao, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, moved in his heart, and came directly to the crowd, and saw Jiang Hexing: "Heshunhou, you can't look at my jokes, for the sake of Ma Yuan's face, you have to help me too." ”

Jiang Hexing nodded and said, "Okay, I may not be able to talk about them, but I'll help you." ”

Chen Mao hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Then admit that you can't do it, go, hurry up and deal with that hustle and bustle first." ”

Jiang Hexing, under the leadership of Chen Mao, came to the bottom of the steps.

Chen Mao first said to Wang Yi: "Da Sikong, do you know this?" This is the one who gave me the four-wheeled carriage and waited. ”

Wang Yi nodded towards Jiang Hexing and said, "Heshun, when did you arrive in Chang'an, it's been hard all the way." ”

Jiang Hexing nodded, and said with a slight smile: "Xie Dasikong cares." ”

Wang Yi said: "First of all, thank you and Shun for being so generous, heart-to-heart with my new dynasty, and take the affairs of the new dynasty as your own business." If I have the chance, I will ask for credit from the Holy Majesty. ”

Jiang Hexing smiled, hugged his fists and said, "Then thank Da Sikong first." ”

Wang Yi said: "Your Majesty has been too busy recently, and it is estimated that he will not be able to spare time for a while, so he will have more fun in Chang'an." This four-wheeled carriage is made by you in Pingzhou, I want to ask, is it really easy to use? ”

Jiang Hexing said: "Da Sikong is also the person who leads the troops, how much is consumed on the road, you know in your own heart, at least use this carriage, the consumption on the road is less than half." ”

Wang Yi said: "But it's true, but what the boy said just now, did you hear it?" If the car is turned into a four-wheeled one, the six arts will not exist. What do you think? ”

Jiang Hexing looked at Kui Huan and said, "Young Master Kui, do you know what is used to harvest crops in the farmland?" ”

Kui Huan rushed to the river and said: "Heshunhou, although I have never done farm work, I also know that I use a sickle. ”

Jiang Hexing said with a smile: "Gongzi Kui is right, what about before there was no iron sickle?" ”

Kui said arrogantly: "Don't say before, it's now." There are also people who do not use iron sickles, but sickles sharpened with stones. I used to use this stone sickle a lot, and I waited, am I right? ”

Jiang Hexing: "Yes. Then Kui Gongzi, let me ask you, is the technique of using a stone sickle very important? ”

Kui shouted: "Of course, otherwise there will be no way to harvest the crops." ”

Jiang Hexing continued: "Then after we have an iron sickle, do we have to learn the technique of using a stone sickle?" ”

Kui Huan was silent for a moment, a little speechless for a while. It is clear that there is an iron scythe. The technique of using a stone sickle and the basic skills of using it are basically worthless.

Those who don't farm will have an iron sickle and have to practice the basic skills of using a stone sickle, of course, some people in the later generations where Jiang Hexing is located don't think so, they have to practice the basic skills that the audience does not recognize, and they are proud of it, even if the audience bricks are smashed up, they are smashed and their heads are bleeding. They can also proudly talk about how solid their skills are, and how low the audience's appreciation level is.

Kui was a master for a while, knowing that Jiang Hexing would dig a pit for him. If you follow this line of thought, you will definitely jump into the pit.

Kui Huan hesitated slightly, and immediately changed the topic and said: "Heshunhou, let me ask you, is it easy to walk on a road like ours in such a carriage?" ”

Kui Huan pointed to the muddy ground around the carriage, which was full of puddles and mud, and in some places the water looked about half a foot deep, and some of the muddy water in the puddles was a little dazzling under the sun.

Jiang Hexing looked at the puddle in the courtyard. Nodding his head, he said, "It's best to pave a stone road, and the current road is easy to sink into." ”

Kui said loudly: "That's right, and wait." If we want to pave a stone road from Chang'an to Wuyuan County, the cost is unimaginable? ”

Jiang Hexing was also stunned, thinking, I want to contract this project, do a lump sum, Pingzhou can earn a lot more.

At this time, Wang Yi said: "Kui hustle. And Shunhou, what you said has some truth, so let's think it's better to think about it in the long run. ”

Jiang Hexing thought to himself, probably Wang Yi wanted to build a road, and he was scared. Now the imperial court is dealing with the Xiongnu on the one hand, and the rebellion in the southwest on the other, and it is very difficult to use troops on both sides. What's more, building roads is destined to be a waste of money in their eyes.

Jiang Hexing didn't continue, and Kui Huan didn't say much, but Chen Mao said to Wang Yi: "Da Sikong, do you want to stop thinking about it?" ”

Wang Yi sighed and said: "Chen Mao, you are not small, be calm in the future, so let's do it, I will talk to Your Majesty when I have a chance in the future, you should be satisfied, right?" ”

Chen Mao saw that Wang Yi had spoken to this extent, so he didn't say anything anymore.

Jiang Hexing mainly looked at this Wang Yi was not very interested in this four-wheeled carriage, maybe he also considered that if he did it, there would be a lot of trouble in the future, craftsmen, and roads, more things are better than less. If it is to build roads, it is probably his work, so he is not enthusiastic about it.

Jiang Hexing understood Wang Yi's situation, and saw that this matter could not help much, so he planned to leave and go back.

At this time, Wang Yi spoke: "Heshun, how about sitting in our Sikong Mansion for a while at noon?" Let's talk, do you have time? ”

Jiang Hexing saw Wang Yi open his mouth and said casually: "Okay." ”

Chen Mao walked away angrily, followed by a group of generals, talking and discussing. The hustle and bustle also left with the civil officials.

The rest of the craftsmen began to be very interested in this four-wheeled carriage, some got on the carriage, some led the horses, and walked back and forth in the huge open space.

Wang Yi took Jiang Hexing and others, and the group went out of the courtyard and walked westward, with someone leading the horse behind and following closely.

Wang Yi took Jiang Hexing's hand and chatted as he walked. I asked about what I saw on the road, especially the situation of the Yellow River breaching. Jiang Hexing did not hide it much, and told Wang Yi about the flooding of the Yellow River.

Wang Yi just asked, he didn't say anything, just nodded frequently.

After a while, they entered the Sikong Mansion in Wangyi. The mansion is large, but it is very simple.

Jiang Hexing looked at Wang Yi's mansion and thought that Wang Mang seemed to rely on this cousin very much, such a big mansion is not something that ordinary people can have. Wang Yi's simplicity is a bit like Wang Mang's learning, but it is not so obvious.

After lunch, I talked about the Yellow River for a while, and then talked about the Xiongnu. Jiang Hexing told him what he knew about the battle of horse aid, as well as the transportation of Gonglu water.

Wang Yi said: "Heshun Hou, although your Pingzhou is not big, this time to conquer the Xiongnu, but it is a great achievement, this bow Lu Shui is very important." ”

Jiang Xingdao: "The great master is wise." ”

Wang Yi smiled and said, "Where did I get my wisdom, you did it yourself." Hey, in fact, I have seen your four-wheeled carriage repeatedly, and I have asked almost all the craftsmen. At first, they said they could do it, and then they said they couldn't do it, I think this estimate is not easy, are you right? ”

Jiang Hexingdao: "This difficulty is not small, and ordinary people really can't do it." ”

Wang Yi said: "Chen Mao is too anxious, this kind of thing can only be done slowly." ”

Jiang Hexing listened to Wang Yi and didn't object to this four-wheeled carriage, but he had been weighing the situation of all parties.

Jiang Hexing asked tentatively: "Da Sikong, do you have any other plans?" ”

Wang Yi laughed, took a sip of the tea bowl and said, "Heshun, the new thing is so quick to accept." Besides, there are so many craftsmen in Sikong Mansion, I don't know when I learned to make a carriage like yours. Don't you want them to do it now, don't you want them to die? At least smash their jobs? ”

Jiang Hexing nodded, the technical content of the four-wheeled vehicle was not comparable to the previous carriages, and even imitation was not an overnight achievement.

Wang Yi said: "Hey, some things, along with nature, seem to be very slow, but in fact they are much faster than forcibly pushing. In this way, I will buy a car from you first, and I will use this car in the future. ”

Jiang Hexing patted his head, this method is very wonderful, Wang Yi has a very high status in the court, and he is a pillar of the court, and his influence is not trivial.

With Wang Yi taking the lead, many people will naturally follow suit, and it will be much smoother to promote it when the time comes.

Jiang Hexing said: "Wang Sikong, I'll give you a car, and when the time comes, dress up a little more and look good." ”

Wang Yi waved his hand and said, "No, I'd better buy one." It turned out that I couldn't give it enough, and now I have to buy it, and others won't be embarrassed for you in the future. ”

Jiang Hexing said: "Okay, I'll send someone to Pingzhou, bring some more carriages, and I'll do some business in Chang'an." (To be continued.) )
