All meals are the same – what you eat is not the point, what you talk about, who you talk to is, is the point.

This meal was eaten for almost two full hours, and the food on the table was changed several times, Lu Peien, Steward Yao, and the beautiful female disciple of the Lingshan faction all became guests at the dinner, and the whole meal was almost Yan Liqiang and Zhang Yourong chatting.

Yan Liqiang still didn't say the idea and aura of the steam engine in the end, after all, for Yan Liqiang, who is a person in two lives, he is not a 15-year-old boy who is ignorant of the world, others give him a little sunshine, he can be bright, Yan Liqiang believes that with this master of machinery and manufacturing, as long as he reveals a little bit about the idea of the steam engine, Zhang Yourong will definitely be able to figure out the joints immediately, and quickly make the steam engine.

What is the role of the steam engine to bring about what changes Yan Liqiang knows better than anyone else, this is a card in his hand, with his relationship with the Lingshan faction and Zhang Yourong, it is not enough for him to give this card to the Lingshan faction and Zhang Yourong in a few words, which is not in line with the principle of maximizing interests at all, more importantly, although Zhang Yourong is a famous master of the organ, but the title of the master of the organ is about his ability, not character, what kind of person he is, what is his character, Yan Liqiang knows nothing about this, in his previous life, Yan Liqiang has also seen many experts and professors who are shameless and obscene on the surfaceNaturally, he would not make the kind of mistake that only a child would make - to equate a person's career achievements and rumored fame with his character and morality.

When chatting with this organ master, Yan Liqiang was polite and polite, but he always had reservations, but even so, Yan Liqiang still let this hall master of the Lingshan Sect Qianji Hall for the first time in his life after meeting him, and finally understood what it meant to be a bosom friend, and what was a thousand cups of wine for a confidant, every time Zhang Yourong said something, Yan Liqiang knew what he meant, and he could discuss it with him, hit it off, and he could chat together in an instant, which made the Lingshan sect's organ master more and more happy.

The few people listening next to him, looking at Yan Liqiang's eyes, slowly changed from surprise to admiration, and they were undisguised, especially Lu Peien, watching Yan Liqiang and the world-famous organ master talking at the dinner table, without stage fright, and even when Yan Liqiang was talking, he could still let Zhang Yourong listen attentively, and his understanding of Yan Liqiang was refreshed again......

Yan Liqiang and Zhang Yourong discussed from sails to metal clockwork, then to the refraction and reflection of light, the density of matter, the sound principle of objects, to the transformation of water in liquid, solid, and gaseous states, and finally to weights and measures......

"I think that if the way of the organ grid wants to get greater development in the entire Han Empire, now the unity of the Han Empire's weights and measures is imperative for change, as the foundation of the foundation, many of the current measurement standards, has produced huge constraints on the development of the way of the object, such as the size of the volume, we have stone, dendrobium, bucket, liter, bean, he, Gong and so on for the measurement, the smallest volume is the Gong, two Gong for a combination, ten for a liter, four liters for a bean, ten liters for a bucket, five buckets for a Hu, ten buckets for a stone, these measurements in ordinary life have not yet shown shortcomings, but barely enough, but in the way of the organ of the objectFor example, the glass of wine in my hand, how much is the volume of this wine glass, it is difficult to have accurate measurement and description, so that ten craftsmen, ten people may have ten answers, it is necessary to know that the way of the object mechanism is also like the cultivation of internal strength, often missing the slightest mistake to a thousand miles, if the way of the object mechanism wants to have a great development, the premise is that all things in the world, as large as the mountains, as small as the dust, weight geometry, length and width geometry, volume geometry, can be measured and described, so that 10,000 craftsmen come, everyone can get the same result with a unified standard, you can distinguish right and wrong at a glance, rather than each saying its own number......”

"Yes, yes, that's the truth!" Zhang Yourong heard Yan Liqiang say this, and directly clapped his thighs excitedly, "The first rule I set up in the Lingshan Sect Qianjitang is to strictly use public instruments and unify all the measurements of the Qianjitang, otherwise, it is difficult for the craftsmen in the hall to make great progress, and the weights and measures used by the Han Empire now are indeed too rough, in addition to the volume, there are also the measurements of time, temperature, and angle, all of which are too rough,......"

"Indeed, for example, the measurement of time and temperature, if these two measurements can be more accurate, just like the weapon smelting and quenching in the blacksmith's workshop in my family, if the ordinary craftsman wants to learn this, it will take at least a few years, all rely on experience to grasp the control, look at the fire, and if there can be an accurate measurement description, how long a embryo is put into the furnace fire at a high temperature, and then take out and put it into the quenching liquid at a low temperature to complete the quenching process, then, even an apprentice, to master this process is only a few days enough, and at the same time, many valuable experience and skills accumulated by predecessors, as long as there is an accurate description of the measurement, can be preserved in the form of words, so that thousands of people can see it, will not be lost and need to be taught by hand, at that time, the Han Empire's way of organs, will definitely have an unprecedented situation......"

The Lingshan Sect's organ master kept nodding his head when he heard this, and Zhang Yourong was about to say something, but someone knocked on the door of the room outside.

"What's the matter?" Lu asked in the room.

"Sixth master, the guy from the restaurant has been here several times, and said that the restaurant had closed two quarters of an hour ago......"

Lu Peien glanced at Steward Yao, and Steward Yao looked at Zhang Yourong, "Hall Master Zhang, look ......"

"Then let's stop here today, it's really fun to talk to Brother Liqiang today!" Zhang Yourong looked at Yan Liqiang, his face was still unsatisfied, but he still stood up.

"Haha, I can get the master's advice, I am the one who has benefited a lot......"

"Brother Liqiang doesn't need to be modest, if you are obsessed with the way of the machine, the title of the first organ master of the Han Empire in the future must be yours, if you don't mind how old I am, you can call me Brother Rong in the future, you don't need to be so polite!"

"Okay, I'll call you Brother Rong in the future!" Yan Liqiang beat the snake with the stick, and there was no hypocrisy, and he called Brother Zhang Yourong directly.

Zhang Yourong groaned for a while, took out a pure gold waist card directly from the jacket on his body, handed it to Yan Liqiang, and said simply, " This is our Lingshan faction Qianjitang's Keqing waist card, Liqiang brother you hold, with the knowledge of Liqiang brother, to be our Qianjitang's Keqing, more than enough, this Keqing's identity does not have any restrictions and requirements for the elder brother, but in the future, if you have any trouble, you can show this waist card, our Lingshan faction's Keqing waist card, in the rivers and lakes and in this imperial capital, there is still a bit of weight, friends around the world to see, even if it is an official family, will give a little face!"

Yan Liqiang glanced at the expressions on the faces of Steward Yao and the beautiful female disciple of the Lingshan Sect, and knew that the weight of the waist card of this Lingshan Sect's identity was not ordinary, I am afraid that it was more than that, he laughed, and took the pure gold waist card, "Then thank you Brother Rong!"

......

A group of people came out of the sky, on the street outside, there were few pedestrians, although the rain in the sky had completely stopped, but the sky was still gloomy, there was no light in the sky, Zhang Yourong still had to stay in the imperial capital for a period of time, during this time, he lived in the Lingshan faction's imperial capital courtyard, after inviting Yan Liqiang to have time to come to the Lingshan faction's imperial courtyard as a guest, the group also got on two carriages at the gate of the outer heaven, and then the carriages separated in different directions.

Under the illumination of the two carriage lights, the wheels of the carriage drove slowly on the streets of the wet Imperial Capital City, pressing over the shallow stagnant water on the ground from time to time, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves resounded in the sparsely populated streets.

The waist card is golden, very exquisite, and the words of Lingshan Keqing on it are very eye-catching.

"Liqiang, do you know that this Lingshan Sect Keqing waist card is an extraordinary thing!" Lu Peien, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at the waist card tightly, and did not hide the envy in his eyes.

"Brother Lu knows, tell me about it!"

"I also once heard the old man say that as long as you carry this waist card, it is equivalent to the protection of the Lingshan faction, and those who are idle will never dare to mess with you, and in addition, Liqiang Do you know what the biggest advantage of having this Keqing waist card is?"

"What is it?"

"In the future, if you have blood and flesh, you can be directly sent to the Lingshan Sect's main sect to become a disciple of the Lingshan Sect, and cultivate the Lingshan Sect's superior learning!" Speaking of this, Lu Peien smiled bitterly, "This is something that the old man has been trying to find for so many years, and it has always been unattainable, but I didn't expect that Liqiang You did it just by eating a meal, this Imperial Capital City is really a place where the wind and clouds meet, Liqiang you come here, it is really like a fish in water, like a dragon getting a cloud, I have found that Liqiang you are becoming more and more incomprehensible......"

"If Brother Lu likes this waist card, I'll give this waist card to Brother Lu!" Yan Liqiang handed over the waist card as he spoke, seemingly not caring at all.

Lu Peien was amused by Yan Liqiang, "You think this waist card can be useful if I hold it, this is something given to you by the first organ master of the Lingshan faction, and the Lingshan faction will definitely record it, if others use it to deceive, it will be their own death......

Yan Liqiang smiled and took the waist card back, "That's right, Brother Lu, let the carriage stop in front of you, just let me down, I'll go out of the city by myself!"

"I'm afraid the city gates are going to be closed now, right?"

"There should be a little time before closing the city gate, Brother Lu, you can just go back by yourself!"

"Otherwise, I'll send you, if the city gate is closed, you will live in the Ganzhou Hall tonight, and you will return to Luyuan tomorrow morning, and there will be no delay!"

"I've just been in the room for so long, I'm a little depressed, I'll go down and walk to breathe, if the city gate is closed and I can't go back, I'll come to the Ganzhou Hall to find Brother Lu again!"

Hearing Yan Liqiang say this, Lu Peien no longer insisted, and at an intersection in front, he stopped the carriage and put Yan Liqiang down, and then the two sides separated at this intersection.

Yan Liqiang, who got out of the carriage, took a deep breath of the cold air, he didn't need to look back, he knew that the tail was still following him, on the side of the street fifty meters away, the person saw him coming down, so he stopped all of a sudden, and hid behind the sign of a closed lantern shop on the side of the street......

I've been staring at it all night, and I'm really dedicated......

Yan Liqiang smiled coldly, and then walked towards the front with a big stride, followed by his figure, and then quietly continued to follow Yan Liqiang......

After following for less than ten minutes, just after turning a street corner, Yan Liqiang's figure disappeared from the sight of the person behind, and the figure behind hurriedly followed, but when he came over, the street was empty, only a few pedestrians and carriages and horses were vaguely in the distance, and Yan Liqiang's figure disappeared all at once.

The man panicked and hurriedly rushed forward, but looking left and right, looking forward and back, he really couldn't find Yan Liqiang's figure.

"Damn, have you found out, that kid is really ......oily," the man muttered to himself, and spat at the ground.

"Are you looking for me?" A calm voice suddenly appeared behind the person, the person was startled, and slowly turned his head, the person standing behind him was not Yan Liqiang.

Yan Liqiang in the darkness only had a pair of eyes shining, and there was an inexplicable and cold aura on his whole body, that person wanted to scream, but before he could react, one of Yan Liqiang's hands had fallen on the spine of his neck, just a slight pinch, his whole body, his whole body was numb, and he instantly lost all his ability to move, and he couldn't scream if he wanted to......

Yan Liqiang was like a predatory beast, holding the man's neck and dragging the man into a dark alley next to him......

In the blink of an eye, there were a few low, inaudible muffled grunts and screams of pain in the dark alley, but for a moment there was silence.

A few minutes later, the wind, who was tidying up his clothes, slowly walked out of the dark alley, looked left and right, showed a cold smile on his face, and then disappeared into the darkness......
