Before Yue Yang's anger subsided, Yue Laifu hurried over. Although he lost the title of the housekeeper of Yuefu, Yueyang appointed Yue Laifu as a warden, although he had no grade, he was the leader of Wulizhai Industrial Zone. Yue Laifu, who is old and has been addicted to official addiction, has become more energetic at work, and he has been so busy that he can't touch the ground recently.

"Young Master, are you back from Lu Zikou? Things are going well, right? As soon as he saw Yue Laifu, he asked with great concern whether Lu Zikou's trip was smooth, which also made Yue Yang feel a little moved in his heart, and his originally tense face eased a little, and he said: "Uncle Laifu, I came today because I heard that our military factory has been able to cast artillery, is that so?" ”

"Yes, young master." As soon as he heard this question, Yue Laifu's face looked very excited, two days ago, the military factory tried to cast a few tiger squat cannons, and the little one saw that they did a good job, so he gave these cannons to Shunbao's artillery team, presumably they have been used now, right?

"Oh? So you're pretty fast! Yue Yang nodded quietly.

"That's it!" Seeing that Yue Yang seemed to be quite satisfied, Yue Lai Fuyue came to his senses, "Young Master, don't say it, the villain let them cast two more cannons this morning, do you want to go and take a look?" ”

"Okay...... I'm just looking to see the artillery we've made ourselves. Yue Yang's face still didn't change, and he took the lead in the direction of the front military factory.

Seeing this, Yue Laifu also hurriedly followed, but he didn't have the eyes of Xian Shunbao desperately behind him.

Seeing that Yue Yang and his own Lao Tzu had already left, Shun Bao could only follow with a helpless wry smile, he knew that his Lao Tzu would definitely be severely trained by the young master later.

Because of the large amount of water required, the military factory was located in a depression near the Sanggan River in Wulizhai. The military factory in Wulizhai consists of more than a dozen large houses with bamboo and wood structures. These houses were large enough to accommodate a large steam engine. As soon as Yue Yang walked near these houses, he heard a loud noise coming from the factory, which was the sound of striking iron with a steam engine.

Yue Yang and the others entered a large room of more than 200 square meters, and saw that in the center of the house were three machines the size of one or two carriages, which were steaming with white steam. On this machine, a huge cylindrical sledgehammer is falling from a height of three or four meters, and these hammers, weighing several tons, fall from the sky and smash on the iron block below, making a loud noise, because the sound is too loud. So much so that the ears of those who just went in began to buzz. Next to the iron, two craftsmen are constantly turning the iron in the direction with large tongs to allow the iron to be struck more evenly. On the side, a middle-aged man in his thirties was constantly observing the shape of the iron.

Because the noise in the workshop was too loud, Yue Yang didn't speak after entering, but walked directly to the middle-aged man who was observing the shape of the iron block, patted his shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Master Zhou." Come out and I'll ask you something. ”

"Lord Yue!" When the middle-aged man saw Yue Yang, a hint of joy flashed on his face, and he hurriedly followed Yue Yang out.

Yue Yang walked out of the workshop for more than 100 meters, and the noise in the workshop gradually disappeared. Yue Yang stopped at this time, looked at the middle-aged man and asked; "Master Zhou, I heard that you made two more cannons here today. Is that so? ”

The middle-aged man nodded: "Yes, my lord, but the villain thinks that these two cannons can't go down to the artillery team below, because the villain has too many blisters in these two cannons, and there is a danger of exploding at any time when they are used, and they need to be rebuilt." ”

"What? How does this work? Before Yue Yang could speak, Yue Laifu objected, "Zhou Da, since this artillery is built, it will be used, how can it be re-furnaceed?" Do you know how much money our military factory needs to spend every day? How much silver are these two tiger squat cannons worth, and if we return to the furnace, our previous efforts will be in vain? ”

The craftsman surnamed Zhou said with a cold face: "Dian Yue." As the head of the military factory, I am not interested in how much money is spent on these guns, I only know that these tiger squat cannons are not qualified, and if they are forcibly used, they are in danger of exploding at any time. I heard that two days ago, you took the initiative to send a few unqualified Tiger Squat guns to the troops, and those cannons were prepared to be recast. How can you take matters into your own hands and send them down to the troops, and what if something happens? ”

"Why can't I go down to the troops?" Yue Laifu was a little unhappy, "The artillery is built to be used, if it is not used by the troops, will it be put in the warehouse to make them rust." As for the problem of exploding the bore, in my opinion, how can it be so easy to blow up? You know, it's made of iron. ”

"...... you" The big stall surnamed Zhou looked at Yue Laifu, who was full of words, and pointed at him with some tears and laughter, speechless for a while.

Shunbao, who had not spoken, saw Yue Yang, whose face was getting more and more ugly, and he was afraid that his Lao Tzu would continue to speak, so he quickly gently pulled the sleeve of his Lao Tzu and glanced at him, signaling him not to say any more. Who knew that Yue Laifu didn't appreciate it, but glared at Shunbao and shouted.

"Stinky boy, what are you pulling me for. I tell you, it's not easy for us to earn some silver, but we can't waste it, this recast cannon will cost at least a hundred taels of silver, you say you want to reforge it, can't you wait until the cannon is broken and then recast, so ......" Seeing that his son dared to look at him, Yue Laifu was even more unhappy.

"Enough!"

A gloomy voice sounded on the side, and everyone saw that it was Yueyang dialect. I saw Yue Yang say with a calm face: "Uncle Laifu, you have been the housekeeper of Yuejiazhuang for so many years, are your eyelids so shallow?" If the money is gone, you can earn it again, but if you don't have it, you can't buy it back no matter how much money you spend. Now pull out the two newly-made Tiger Squat cannons for testing, and I'm going to see what we can do with the guns we built ourselves. ”

For Yue Laifu Yueyang, an old man who has served the Yue family for most of his life, Yue Yang has always been more respectful and has never spoken to him seriously, but today Yue Yang is rarely on fire. This time, even Yue Laifu jumped, looking at Yue Yang's unkind face, he stopped talking.

"Yes!"

Zhou Da didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered someone to drag the two tiger squatting cannons out of the warehouse. Yue Yang walked to the side of the tiger squat cannon and checked the two artillery, from the outside, these two cannons were indeed shiny and new, but after Yue Yang put his eyes close to the cannon and took a closer look, he could directly see with the naked eye that there were many small holes around the two artillery.

Seeing this, Yue Yang's brows couldn't help but furrow deeply, although he didn't know much about artillery, he still knew the basic knowledge of physics. These small holes indicate that there must be more gaps and some dense holes in the interior of these two guns, and the quality of such steel is definitely not up to par.

Yue Yang turned his head to Zhou Da, "Master Zhou, send someone to pull these cannons out and try two cannons." ”

"Okay!"

Soon, everyone came to an open field, and the two tiger squat cannons were also dragged over, and soon two craftsmen loaded the two cannons with gunpowder and projectiles.

"Lord Yue, for the sake of safety, it is better for you to step aside."

Zhou Da invited Yue Yang and the others to a distance of 100 meters from the artillery before signaling the two craftsmen to start ignition.

Soon, the arquebuses on the guns were lit, and there was a snorting sound, and the two craftsmen also quickly ran to the two anti-artillery holes that were temporarily dug behind them and hid. I ......only heard two loud bangs in a row, two artillery pieces were fired, and a thick black smoke rose into the sky.

"Let's go, go over and have a look."

Yue Yang strode in the direction of the artillery with some impatience, and when the smoke gradually dissipated, everyone saw that the barrel of one of the two tiger squat cannons had been cracked, and the barrel of the other tiger squat cannon was directly blown into two.

Looking at the messy artillery position, Yue Yang turned his head to Yue Laifu expressionlessly and said in an extraordinarily soft tone: "Uncle Laifu, take a look for yourself, isn't this what you call a big problem?" ”

"I ...... This ......"

To be honest, Yue Laifu was also taken aback when he saw the appearance of these two cannons, which is such a cannon, this is simply playing with life!

Looking at Yue Laifu, who was a little dumbfounded, Yue Yang sighed lightly: "Uncle Laifu, let me ask you, do you dare to let Shunbao personally operate such an artillery to kill the enemy?" Aren't you afraid that the enemy didn't fight but blew Shun Bao to death? Or when the two armies are fighting, our artillery is blown up one after another, do you know how many people were killed this time? If one is not good, our army will be in danger of being wiped out, and then you will be the culprit who killed the soldiers of the whole army! ”

"Young Master...... Villain...... The villain is confused! Yue Laifu knelt down, his face was full of remorse, at this time he finally understood how ignorant and stupid he was before, if he let the soldiers use such artillery against the enemy, can they not be defeated?

Seeing Yue Laifu crying all over the place, Yue Yang shook his head and sighed lightly: "Forget Uncle Laifu, I can't blame you for this, after all, you have never been in contact with this kind of thing, and it is my fault that you let you manage these military factories." In this way, from now on, you will not be in charge of the affairs of the military factory, let Master Zhou be in charge, and you should take care of the affairs of the cement factory and the mine. ”

"Yes, the little one will do it immediately." Yue Laifu, who knew that he was about to cause a catastrophe, dared to say a word more, so he hurriedly agreed.

After dealing with this matter, Yue Yang was no longer in the mood to inspect, and turned around and walked outside. It's just that he was thinking as he walked.

"I used to hear people say how stupid it is for a layman to lead an insider, but now I have finally seen it with my own eyes. Yue Laifu is undoubtedly both moral and loyal to himself, but now he almost caused a catastrophe, it seems that he will be cautious in the way of employing people in the future, and let professional people do it. ”
