742: Won't die in vain!
In addition to the few students who accompanied him, there was also a cadre of officials who transported goods to Lanzhou City with Cheng Qing.
After Wu Da came to Qin'an County, he trained the county government officials well, and Wu Da looked down on the cheating and slippery officials, honest and loyal, even if people were stupid, Wu Da could accept it.
There are not many officials in the organization, and only in the preparation of the government officials can they receive the imperial court, and the others are all paid by Cheng Qing.
Since Cheng Qing spent money, Wuhan University wants to make every tael of silver that Cheng Qing spends worthwhile!
This time I went to Lanzhou, and the officials personally selected by Wuhan University served as transport personnel and guards, and Wuhan University himself followed Cheng Qing, no matter how Cheng Qing emphasized that there was no danger, Wuhan University insisted on this.
After Wu Er joined the army, Wu Da was ashamed and vowed to make up for his brother's loyalty.
Cheng Qing took several students, including Shao Bao, the son of Shao Dahu.
No, Shao Bao now has a big name, called Shao Yuanzhi.
After Shao Dahu took the initiative to give up the shares of the weaving workshop, Cheng Qing gave Shao Bao this name, and the daughter of the Shao family also called him Shao Bao, and Shao Dahu asked everyone to change their words.
The name Shao Yuanzhi is too magnificent, Shao Dahu, who only knows a few words, understands what it means, if he puts such a good name, what is Shao Bao, there is no manhood at all!
Cheng Qing often said that boys should not be too pampered, they are raised like jewels, they are flowers in a greenhouse, and they can't withstand the wind and rain.
On the contrary, it is the weeds in the fields, trampled by people, trampled by livestock, the scorching sun in summer, and the frost in winter, how humble it is, but as long as the grass roots are not eradicated, when the spring breeze blows, it will glow with new sprouts, and it will grow wantonly in the spring.
Shao Dahu is now obedient to Cheng Qing's words, Cheng Qing is what he says, every time he has the opportunity to leave Qin'an County, Shao Dahu encourages his son to take the initiative to fight for it - anyway, the road from Qin'an County to Lanzhou City is very safe, and Shao Dahu is not afraid that this lone seedling of the Shao family will have an accident.
Shao Dahu was not wrong, the second attack of the Northern Qi Dynasty did not affect the trade route from Qin'an County to Lanzhou City, and there was an endless stream of merchants driving carts and horses to Lanzhou.
As soon as the two armies start a war, the price of living materials will rise, as long as Lanzhou City cannot be broken, at this time, it will definitely be profitable to sell things to Lanzhou City.
There are endless cattle and horses on the official road, and the dust is all over the sky, not to mention the head and face, even the nostrils and ears are black and gray.
The glass square and the cement house, she sent them to the capital, hoping that Meng Huaijin would develop the cement as soon as possible.
Without road construction, the large number of goods produced after the increase in productivity cannot be circulated quickly and in large quantities.
Wait, even if there is cement, it is unlikely that the road between Qin'an and Lanzhou will be built, and this scarce material will be used in the Gyeonggi capital first...... Cheng Qing felt that before he became a leader, the northwest might not be able to build cement roads.
That's it, she has to continue to endure this dusty road.
However, if you can really make cement, in addition to building roads, you can also build river embankments and dams, and water conservancy projects are also very important, not to mention economic factors, a strong embankment can save countless lives during the annual flood season.
It just so happened that Master Cheng Liu was still in the Ministry of Industry.
Cheng Qing suddenly thought that if she handed over the cement recipe through Master Cheng Liu, maybe Master Cheng Liu would be able to enter the cabinet smoothly?
Forget it, pouring it out from the hands of the sixth master, I don't know what will happen to the cement square, since it was all given to Meng Huaijin, Cheng Qing has nothing to regret.
As for whether Master Cheng Liu can enter the cabinet, Meng Huaijin must have his own considerations, if Cheng Qing asks for officials for the Cheng family, the friendship between her and Meng Huaijin will change - although Master Cheng Liu did not get the cement recipe, Meng Huaijin wants to make cement, but he still can't get around the construction department, and the sixth master still has the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
How to use the cement is also inseparable from the Ministry of Industry.
Cheng Qing went to Lanzhou, thinking about these things all the way, her mind was not idle for a moment, she didn't think that there would be an accident in the nearest city from Lanzhou, after all, the road from Qin'an County to Lanzhou City, even Shao Dahu was relieved to let his only son Shao Yuanzhi follow, how could something happen?
But something happened.
There was a commotion on the official road, and the dust was mixed with the sound of hurried horses' hooves.
There was a small group of cavalry, out of nowhere, broke through the border defense, and actually bypassed Lanzhou City and came to the rear.
"Old, Teacher ......"
Just changing his name will not make Shao Yuanzhi's personality change overnight, seeing the turmoil in the distance, Shao Yuanzhi's legs are weak.
Wu Da grabbed Shao Yuanzhi by the collar and forced him to stand up straight.
"What are you afraid of, the Northern Barbarians are also people, and they can be killed if they are human."
The merchant went out with a large number of goods, and naturally there were guards, this is another official road, only a few miles away from the next city, Cheng Qing touched her elbow, she went out this time with a sleeve crossbow.
A pair of sleeve crossbows can only shoot a few arrows, and that small group of cavalry looks at two or three hundred people, of course, it is not her sleeve crossbow that can kill all.
But there were more than two or three hundred vendors and guards on this pipeline.
Everyone still has weapons, and they can fight hard.
"Wuda, you bring people to help them, the rules of my Cheng family, you can tell everyone about it!"
Wu Da puffed up his chest, "Those who are injured for the protection of the master, the Cheng family will take care of the old age, and those who die for the protection of the master, the Cheng family will take care of their parents and wives and children!" ”
Wu Da took off half of his robe and showed the hideous scars on his body to the officials in the team.
"These scars, left to save my family, I was originally a slave of the Cheng family, and the adults used Lao Ginseng to save my cheap life, to get rid of my slave status, and to accept my son as a student. The barbarians are coming, and I am willing to fight for my lord's life a second time! ”
Wu Da used his own example to tell these officials that Cheng Qing has never been a stingy person.
The barbarians are vicious, and the looting traders will not leave them alive, and if the officials do not work hard, most of them will not escape death.
If you rise up against the enemy, you still have a chance to live!
The same is death, at least the death is more valuable, was killed in vain by the barbarian cavalry, and there was no pension, so he had to go underground to find Hades for revenge.
Wuda pointed out another way for the officials.
As soon as the officials gritted their teeth, they all rushed up with Wuda to kill the enemy.
The cavalry of the Northern Qi suddenly appeared, and the vendors on the pipeline were in disarray, and no one came forward to organize the escort to meet the enemy, and the cavalry of the Northern Qi was easily cleaned up like chopping melons and vegetables.
Everyone only thought about running for their lives, desperately fleeing in the direction of the city, the screams and pleadings of people, the neighing of livestock, and the arrogant laughter of the Northern Qi cavalry.
A mess of loose sand!
The cavalry of the Northern Qi Dynasty harvested human lives and was happy and wanton.
This time, there was a small team, but only a few dozen people, who rode a horse to face the Northern Qi cavalry.
An escaped trader was rescued by Wuda and was stunned on the spot.
Seeing that Wu Da led people to rush towards the Northern Qi cavalry, the traders turned around and ran.
After running two steps and looking at the goods scattered all over the place, he couldn't help but look back behind him, dozens of people against two or three hundred people, how could they be opponents, but they were sent to death in vain.
Suddenly crying and laughing, the vendor pulled up one of the fallen guards.
"Go kill the enemy! Kill a barbarian, Lao Tzu will pay a hundred taels of silver! ”
