122. If you are wrong, you must admit that you are wrong, and you will be beaten upright
Zhang Cheng mainly opened the second financial road for Chang'an City, or the second industry, of course, not to sell wood directly.
Although there are many good tree species in the Longling primeval forest, which can produce high-quality wood, the profit is too thin to simply sell raw materials.
If it can be processed and then sold, it will be convenient to set up a market, and it will be convenient to raise a high price.
Therefore, while Zhang Dongyun waved his hand and asked tens of thousands of Tang soldiers to cut wood together, he also selected people with carpenter skills.
At the same time, other people in the city began to recruit craftsmen in Longbei County.
At the same time, they are also tasked with breaking the encirclement and blockade of the Eastern Tang Dynasty near Longbei.
Previously, the Eastern Tang Dynasty had been locking down Qinzhou Prefecture and Longbei County, prohibiting people and business travelers.
Although because of the corruption in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, some fish that slipped through the net were still able to go to Chang'an, but even so, Jin Fugui and others were in danger, carrying their heads and carrying goods.
Of course, strictly speaking, they are smuggling.
And Zhang City Lord is now helping them change from smuggling to legitimate transactions.
The next timber business in Chang'an City was mainly supplied to Longbei County at first, and then slowly developed outward.
Li Yi, Situ Jinsheng and others were annihilated before, and once again shocked all parties in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and they did not dare to act rashly.
can take down Li Yi and others, and not a single one of them is allowed to escape, such a strength, few companies in the entire Eastern Tang Dynasty can do it.
What's more critical is how Li Yi and others were defeated, and no rumors came out at all.
The more mysterious it is, the more it makes others cautious.
Taking advantage of this prestige, it is the time for Chang'an to expand its influence.
The prestige of Chang'an City broke through Longbei County and spread to the surrounding counties.
Not only cultivators, but also ordinary people kept talking in private about the mysterious city that suddenly appeared.
The news that the Eastern Tang Dynasty is going to change the sky is spreading more and more widely.
Taking advantage of this shareholder wind, Zhang Dongyun projected Mr. Wuyun, and also began to arrange manpower to expand his own news channels outward, and obtain the wind and grass from all over the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
Soon, some news came.
Among the more eye-catching, there is bad news and good news.
The bad news is that the "anti-thieves" led by the former head of the Hu family, Hu Yinghua, were escorted to Luyang City, the royal capital of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
Hu Yinghua's third brother, Hu Yinghao, made meritorious contributions to the suppression of the rebellion, became the new head of the Hu family, and was rewarded by the royal family of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
The good news is that Tang King Li Xuanxin finally failed to kill Li Jie, the master of the Great River Dragon Gate.
Although Li Jie was wounded, he made his way north and successfully escaped from the territory of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, after which his whereabouts are unknown.
Because of the internal henchman Chang'an City, Tang Wang did not leave the country to pursue Li Jie and was forced to return empty-handed.
However, the original foundation of the Great River Longmen on both sides of the middle reaches of the Great River has been completely destroyed.
The Eastern Tang Dynasty accelerated the removal of the influence of the Great River Dragon Gate from the people.
In Chang'an City, when a group of Longmen disciples heard the news from the outside world, they were both happy that their master had escaped, and they were also sad and angry that their hometown of Shanmen was destroyed.
Some disciples of the Great River Longmen wanted to beg Chang'an to send troops to help them return to the middle reaches of the Great River, but in the end they held back and swallowed the words back into their stomachs.
Zhang Dongyun saw all this, but ignored it.
He is now concentrating on the construction of Chang'an City itself.
Dahe Longmen contributed to this, and they will naturally be rewarded in the future.
As for the children of Longmen, they are now also willing to dedicate themselves to building Chang'an City, which took them in and saved them.
Shang Jie and Wen Hu both praised a pair of skillful hands. ”
Mr. Wuyun, projected by Zhang Dongyun, sat in a side hall of the Tianshu Palace.
In front of him was a long, thin young man.
The young man looks younger than his actual age, his hands are slender and dexterous, and he also looks like he is not lacking in strength.
This person is none other than Chen Yu, a disciple of the Dahe Dragon Sect that Wen Hu mentioned to Mr. Wuyun earlier.
Later, Shang Jie also introduced him to Mr. Wuyun.
He looked at Mr. Dark Cloud at the moment, his expression was calm, but his eyes were still a little cramped.
"Uncle Shang and Senior Brother Wen both praised it falsely. Chen Yu said softly.
"Come with the old man. Mr. Wuyun was noncommittal, and led Chen Yu out of the Tianshu Palace, all the way to a timber yard in the mountains.
He picked a thick log and threw it to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu practiced martial arts, his talent was mediocre, but when he was a teenager, he was able to worship the Dahe Longmen to learn martial arts, and now it has been almost 20 years, and his foundation will not be bad.
In the fourth realm of martial arts, his strength is far superior to that of ordinary people, and he catches the log lightly.
Knowing that Mr. Wuyun was going to test himself, Chen Yu's tone was neither humble nor arrogant: "Please ask Mr. to make the question." ”
Mr. Wuyun said indifferently: "Anything can be done." ”
Chen Yu listened, groaned slightly, and then had a short knife in his hand.
He held up the log with one hand, and with the other a knife, he slashed and slashed at the log.
After a few moments, he stopped.
Originally, it was split into two parts.
One of them, which seemed to be just a smooth wooden plank, had only been sharpened by Chen Yu a few times.
But when the wind blew, the planks seemed to rise and fall, like waves.
Chen Yu chatted a few knives, making this wood seem to change from a static object to a flowing river, reproducing the galloping dragon river that he could see every day after studying the art of the river Longmen for many years.
The other piece of wood was processed by Chen Yu many times, and finally turned into dozens of parts, which were composed together, looking like a machine.
At this time, the wind hit in the mountains, and the impeller of the wooden machinery was blown by the wind, and then the bearing was driven, and it rolled on the mountain.
When we reached the uphill level, the speed slowed down and eventually stopped, but it swayed in place and did not slide backwards.
Seeing this, Zhang Dongyun in the Daming Palace couldn't help laughing.
Mr. Wuyun, who was projected by him, looked at Chen Yu calmly: "Clever and skillful, the wood is hollowed out, this thing can't be loaded, but it is actually used in the water to improve the use of boating?"
Chen Yu's eyes lit up: "The senior's eyes are like torches!"
Mr. Dark Cloud's gaze was indifferent:
"However, in the water, for durability, the wood will not be hollowed.
It was deliberately designed to show the same effect as water power with the help of wind power.
It seems that it's not the old man who is taking the test, but the old man who is coming?"
He turned his head to look at another piece of wood: "It's the same to make a piece of this, it seems to be exquisite, but it's actually useless, and it doesn't show skill at all, the realm is higher, and the martial artist who is good at controlling his strength can make it if he practice, isn't it?"
Chen Yu let out a long breath, with a look of excitement and shame on his face.
He bowed deeply to Mr. Wuyun: "The juniors are a little careful, and they can't escape the eyes of the seniors." ”
"Yes, in this regard, there is a great talent. Mr. Wuyun's face was expressionless: "But the little cleverness has made the opportunity lost." ”
Chen Yu surrendered: "Any punishment and disposition, the younger generation is willing." ”
"From today onwards, let's sharpen our temperament in the lumber yard. Mr. Dark Cloud commanded.
"Yes, Senpai. Chen Yugong said.
Mr. Wuyun left, while Chen Yu stayed in the lumber yard honestly, processing the logs into regular pieces of wood, and then waiting for someone to transport them away.
In the process of workmanship, he does not show off his skills, but he is fast and accurate, processing pieces of wood, and one person does it faster and better than all the other workers combined.
Wen Hu came to him sweating profusely: "Senior Brother Chen, why are you here?"
In his mind, even if his senior brother couldn't pass Mr. Wuyun's assessment and couldn't find an important errand in the Heavenly Palace, he should at least be able to help in the Heavenly Palace.
Who would have thought that Chen Yu would be punished to cut wood in the wood yard?
This is working as a coolie with those Tang Army prisoners!
"Senior brother,...... Offended Mr. Dark Cloud?" Wen Hu asked with a bitter face.
"I'm to blame. Chen Yu said calmly: "I am frivolous Meng Lang, and I should be taught a lesson here." ”
Wen Hu opened his mouth wide: "Senior brother...... Go and confess your mistake to Mr. again. ”
Chen Yu shook his head: "What's the use of admitting mistakes verbally, only by working hard here can you correct people's stinky problems." ”
He smiled at Wen Hu: "Senior Brother Wen, the current errand in Chang'an City, do it carefully."
Don't learn from me, I'm called a cheap bone, and I'm self-inflicted.
It's much stronger here than the Eastern Tang Dynasty, even if the Eastern Tang royal family didn't attack the main gate, and Chang'an didn't save us, I said the same.
I should say that I wish I had come here earlier. ”
Wen Hu was a little stunned when he heard this.
Chen Yu explained: "Mr. Wuyun is not only a person who values practicality over luxury, but also understands the reasoning and thinking of our generation.
Mr. Wuyun is like this, the real owner of this place, the city lord of Chang'an, must be an enlightened person. ”
Wen Hu nodded, and then said hesitantly: "Senior brother, what if...... What if Mr. Dark Cloud lets you cut wood here for the rest of your life?"
"Then I'll work hard here. ”
Chen Yu smiled: "I have observed, people here also have rest, although it is hard labor, but the pressure is not bad."
I still have time to work and tinker with my own gadgets.
When you have time, come here to help me take my things away, and if you have anything you want me to do, you can also tell me that I will get it for you when I am free from work. ”
Wen Hu smiled bitterly: "There is no more now, senior brother just take care of himself."
On the whole, His Majesty and Mr. Uyun are generous-minded and sincerely repentant, and they will give them a chance in the future. ”
Everything that happened in the city, Zhang Dongyun could know.
The conversation between Chen Yu and Wenhu was naturally in his ears, and he knew what Chen Yu said from the bottom of his heart.
Since this is the case, of course, he does not hesitate to give the other party a chance in the future.
As he said earlier, this man was brilliant at craftsmanship.
That underwater turbine alone is beyond the current level of technology in this world.
It was after he started that Dahe Longmen continued to make progress in shipbuilding compared to before.
Not to mention, this kid is still talented, and he doesn't hide his selfishness, and is willing to point out others.
The Tiangong Hall was handed over to him, and Mr. Wuyun could be the shopkeeper in this regard.
However, for now, let's be a coolie for a while, and then let's sharpen my temperament.
At all times, rules must be established.
Just as the kid himself said, if you are wrong, you must admit that you are wrong, and you will be beaten upright.
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun leaned back and sat on the back of the chair.
But then again, the Great River Dragon Gate is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, hidden deeply.
Chen Yu is a special talent not to mention, the master of the sect, Li Jie, is a blockbuster on the river, and he is actually a martial artist of the Ninth Realm.
If it weren't for the arrival of King Tang in person, the people of Dahe Longmen would not have been hunted down so miserably.
Now that the others have arrived in Chang'an City, Li Jie has been separated.
To put it militarily, the entire Dahe Longmen is up and down, and for Chang'an City, the most valuable ones are Li Jie and Chen Yu.
One in the future, one may be both now and in the future.
According to the rumors circulating in the outside world, Li Jie is actually not very old.
Now that he has reached the ninth realm, his age is even younger than when King Tang went everywhere to the ninth realm.
