Chapter Forty-Seven: If there is trouble, it must be cleared
Fu Tingye took a group of people to the ordnance prison.
From a distance, he saw a group of craftsmen gathered around the tent he had prepared for Hua Qingxue, and all those tables, chairs, stools, and couches were moved out, along with the bow-making utensils, and thrown on the ground!
Hai Shixuan, who came with Fu Tingye, was greatly annoyed when he saw this scene, and directly choked with Wei Han!
"What do you mean, Lord Wei?! Gather a crowd in the barracks to make trouble, and you should be beheaded on the law! ”
When the craftsmen heard this, their faces showed panic, and many people looked at Wei Han.
Young Eunuch Wei was fearless, calmly walked out of the crowd, bowed, and said loudly: "The lower official is close to the age of antiquity, if you can let the general restrain himself from the precipice, why die?!" Since ancient times, there have been no women in the army, and women's soldiers are unheard of! I hope that the general will take back his order so as not to cause a catastrophe! ”
Hai Shixuan shouted coldly: "The general invited people into the camp to improve the bow and crossbow, how did it become a big disaster in your mouth!" Disaster? I think you're the biggest scourge! You are openly resisting military orders! Chaos and discipline! It's lawless! ”
Liang Wensheng, who was shrinking his hand and tail on the side, couldn't help but interject: "Lord Wei, there is a fixed number of weapons and armor that the Ordnance Supervisor will provide every day, so you have these people gather here...... Failure to hand over sufficient numbers and delaying military planes will be severely punished. ”
The craftsmen behind Wei Han exchanged their heads and ears, as if they had the intention of retreating.
At this time, Young Eunuch Wei opened the hem of his clothes without saying a word, and knelt on the ground with his waist straight.
When he knelt, those craftsmen couldn't retreat if they wanted to! knelt down one after another, and a large number of people knelt in front of Fu Tingye for a while!
Hai Shixuan is very angry!
Wei Han is clearly a difficult general! - There are so many people, they can't all be dragged and chopped!
"General, look at this ......" Hai Shixuan looked at Fu Tingye.
Fu Tingye was not angry.
He just looked coldly at Wei Han, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Lord Wei, are you acting like this, are you unwilling to let the woman enter the camp, or are you worried that the woman will really make a divine bow after entering the camp and steal your limelight?" ”
Wei Han stiffened his neck and said, "The general can't help but underestimate the lower official!" If everyone makes excellent weapons like Blacksmith Liu and does their best for our army, the subordinate officials should bow down to their ears! ”
"Yes, then Ben will be relieved." Fu Tingye didn't look at him anymore, and said to Hai Shixuan on the side, "Send a hundred archers over." ”
"Yes!"
Everyone was suspicious, and they didn't understand why Fu Tingye wanted to summon archers, but they didn't dare to squeak and ask, and knelt on the ground one by one.
In a few moments, a hundred archers brushed over.
Fu Tingye patted Liang Wensheng beside him, "Tell them what happened." ”
"Huh? ......" Liang Wensheng looked entangled, resigned, "this ...... Belch...... This ......"
Fu Tingye swept over with a cold eye-
Liang Wensheng suddenly felt a thrill in his heart! Busy said: "I...... I'm the overseer of the Bow Battalion! In order to improve the matter of the bow and crossbow, the general specially arranged for a master to enter the camp for guidance, but due to the obstruction of the ordnance guard, it was a stalemate here......"
As he spoke, he looked at Fu Tingye in fear, and he didn't know if he could say this.
Fortunately, the general didn't glare at him anymore.
Fu Tingye looked at the soldiers in front of him and said, "Presumably some of you have heard that the person who will be invited to help improve the bow and crossbow is a woman. ”
When these soldiers heard this, their expressions moved slightly.
Fu Tingye continued: "There have been no women in the army since ancient times, but this bow is extremely powerful, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, the general will never give up!" If you fail, you will only be laughed at by the world, but if you succeed, you will hold a magic bow and a sharp weapon and kill that Liao dog without leaving a piece of armor! - Yes! Some people, stubbornly clinging to the old rules, actually want to block the opportunity to destroy the Liao soldiers! You say, should you kill or not?! ”
"Kill!! —" The hundred archers shouted in unison.
Liang Wensheng saw that the bodies of many craftsmen kneeling trembled......
Fu Tingye shouted coldly: "In a quarter of an hour, if there is still someone here to obstruct it, shoot it on the spot!" There is no forgiveness for military orders! ”
With that, he turned around and strode away, not looking at Wei Han again.
……
In the big tent, Fu Tingye took a big sip of tea and drank it.
Hai Shixuan lifted the curtain and came in, and his tone was extremely mocking: "It will all disperse in less than half an hour." ”
"Where's Old Man Wei?" Fu Tingye asked.
"He was left on his knees alone, and in the end he was persuaded by several people to leave." Hai Shixuan was still a little angry when he mentioned Wei Han, "This young eunuch Wei is an old bone, and he is always making such a fuss!" Isn't he afraid that one day he will be slashed by you?! ”
Fu Tingye laughed casually, "He would like to be hacked to death by me, and he has a good reputation for being honest and upright." ”
Hai Shixuan sighed helplessly, "This old guy is too difficult, general, now that things are so big, if Miss Hua can't make the bow on the map, I'm afraid she won't be good." ”
Fu Tingye didn't care, "It's not impossible, I've seen the drawings, there is no doubt that it will be better than the previous bow, but can it reach a range of four hundred steps...... To be verified. ”
Hai Shixuan said with a smile: "That's good, otherwise Old Man Wei might have something to make out of it......"
"You go to Panshui and ask Zhao Sheng to send someone to me." Fu Tingye said.
"Yes, my subordinates obey!" Hai Shixuan happily turned to leave.
Fu Tingye sat upright, the teacup in his hand was already empty, he thought that Hua Qingxue would come soon, and his expression couldn't help but bring out some spirit and joy.
……
Hua Qingxue found a carpenter with good craftsmanship to make a mold for handmade soap.
A palm-sized rectangular wooden box that can be removed on all sides makes it easier for her to demold. God knows how hard she wasted last time to dig the soap out of the porcelain bowl!
Of course, the bottom should also be engraved with her cute little snowflake.
After explaining the requirements, the carpenter said that there was no problem at all and asked Hua how much light snow he wanted.
Hua Qingxue said very proudly, let's have fifty first!
She paid a part of the deposit and instructed the carpenter to polish the surface of the wood smoothly, and before leaving, there was an unexpected joy! ——
Hua Qingxue has discovered beeswax!
yes, beeswax, why didn't she think of it before?!
In ancient times, beeswax was used for a long time, making candles, making honey prints, and dyeing clothes.
And it was almost a well-known thing to apply beeswax to polished wooden furniture, but she had never thought of it before!
Hua Qingxue was overjoyed, "Uncle, can you sell me some of this beeswax?" ”
"If the little lady wants it, just take it, such a little beeswax is not worth a few dollars." The carpenter took over her business and was very polite.
"No, no, no, I want a little more......"
In the end, Hua Qingxue bought a large bowl of so many beeswax.
- Beeswax is a natural emulsifier, hardness adjuster, with antiseptic, moisturizing, antibacterial and other effects, as long as it is heated and dissolved, it can make oil and water mixed and emulsified, and is the most commonly used natural raw material for DIY lipstick, handmade soap and aromatic candles.
If Hua Qingxue makes handmade soap, adding a little beeswax can increase the shelf life of the handmade soap.
As for the remaining beeswax, Hua Qingxue is going to use it to make lipstick! The basic lip balm only needs beeswax and vegetable oils to make.
An ordinary piece of soap for laundry can't sell for much, but if there is a soap with skin care and emollient effects, rich people will be willing to spend money for it, and as a lip balm for maintaining their lips, it will definitely be more marketable.
Hua Qingxue felt that she was looking to get rich!
She came home with a large pile of handmade soap-making materials she had bought from the street, and as soon as she put her things down, there was a knock on her door.
Don't think about it, it must be Zhao Sheng......
The only one who lives in this neighborhood and knows her is Zhao Sheng.
"Yo, Miss Hua, you haven't eaten yet!" As soon as the door opened, it was Zhao Sheng's familiar smiling face.
"Just came back, and I haven't cooked yet."
"The barracks are almost ready, you see tomorrow passing, okay?"
Hua Qingxue was stunned, "Oh...... So I'm going to clean up tonight, do I need to bring something with me? ”
Zhao Sheng smiled: "Just go over!" Everything else, the general has prepared for you. ”
Hua Qingxue's face was slightly red, and she whispered, "It's good not to cause him trouble......
"No trouble! Even if you're in trouble, the general will have to sweep you away! ”
Hua Qingxue smiled embarrassedly.
……
The atmosphere in the ordnance prison was depressing.
Liang Wensheng and the craftsmen walked back with a large pile of bamboo chips, and met the craftsmen of other battalions, who sneered: "Is this the bamboo used to make the divine bow?" It doesn't look any different from before, I said Liang Jian Zuo, you shouldn't be wrong, right? It's better to go to the temple to open the light, maybe it will work for some, hahahahahaha......"
"What do you mean by that? ......"The craftsmen of the bow and crossbow battalion fought for Liang Wensheng.
Liang Wensheng grabbed the other party and shook his head, "Forget it......"
The other party flaunted and left.
Liang Wensheng and his entourage returned to the bow and crossbow camp under the fire, and a younger craftsman angrily put down the bamboo piece and complained: "I don't understand!" They all applauded the improvement of weapons in the iron battalion, why did our bow and crossbow battalion improve their weapons, and they couldn't look down on it?! ”
"There's no way around it...... another person said, "Before the Iron Weapons Battalion transformed the weapon, Vice General Qin took the pig-killing knife, so that the big guy could see how sharp and tough the knife was, but now we ...... Only the drawings, and these pieces of bamboo, are inevitably questioned. ”
"So we have to do it well!" Liang Wensheng looked at them, and his tone was extremely firm, "When Miss Hua comes tomorrow, we will start construction!" Make a peerless bow with a range of 400 paces, and leave those people speechless! ”
"Good! Make a bow! ”
"Whatever Supervisor Liang says, we will do!"
"Make those guys look good! ……”
……
Blacksmith Liu sat by the fire and frowned, he looked at the blade that was about to take shape in his hand, and still felt that something was wrong.
What's wrong......
Is it temperature, or is it proportion? Or is it not enough to forge it? ……
Someone walked in from outside.
"Hey, isn't that a bit too much? Aren't you afraid that the men in the bow and crossbow camp will trouble you? ”
"They're bothering me? Haha, they better take care of themselves first, if they can't make a bow with a range of 400, they will wait to be laughed at by the whole battalion! ”
"Alas...... Liang Jian is also to improve weapons, but he didn't meet the right person, how could he invite a woman's ......"
"Isn't it! It's still good for our iron business, and we can meet a talent like Uncle Liu! The man said, smiling flatteringly at Blacksmith Liu, "Uncle Liu, where are you still busy?" It's not too early, so go back and rest early! ”
Blacksmith Liu has changed from an obscure old blacksmith to a popular one now, a little uncomfortable, smiled dryly, and replied, "I'll stay for a while." ”
"Okay, let's go first, you're busy."
“…… Well. ”
