Speaking of this, Qi Heng looked at Shen Wansan with an unprecedentedly stern gaze: "Once something goes wrong in this matter, take your head to see me." ”

When Qi Heng's words came to this extent, Shen Wansan already knew the seriousness of the matter very well.

said firmly: "Don't worry, my lord, Wansan will guarantee his life." ”

Qi Heng nodded, and continued: "But for the time being, I am not in a hurry to build, I will find someone to find the physical object first, you prepare first, once the physical object is shipped back, you must successfully copy it in the shortest possible time." ”

"Yes!"

After explaining Shen Wansan, Qi Heng looked at Han Qin and Yu Guangdao again, and said, "Mr. Yu, I have to trouble you and Han Qin to go to that cave, no matter what, no matter what the price is, you must transport those parts back." ”

Yu Guangdao and Han Qin nodded solemnly and bowed their hands.

After explaining this, Qi Heng carefully thought that there should be no mistakes, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

Looking at the wine banquet in front of him, he also lost the desire to continue eating, turned his head to Yu Guangdao and said: "I can't eat this wine banquet today, and if the ballista doesn't return for a day, Qi Mou will not be in this mood." ”

"Brother Yu, the stakes are very high, it is better to set off overnight after discussing with Han Qin, and when you come back, Qi Heng will give you a banquet on the city gate!"

Seeing Qi Heng like this, Yu Guangdao reluctantly glanced at these drinks and dishes, and said to Qi Heng: "What the adults are worried about is what Yu is anxious about, don't worry, Yu will prepare with General Han." ”

"Okay, there is Brother Laoyu!"

Watching Han Qin and Yu Guangdao leave, Qi Heng still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Today's Huanggang City is developing steadily in all aspects under his governance, but because of the limited number of troops, there is always a hidden danger.

But once this ballista can be mass-produced, it will be a talisman for today's Huanggang.

Of course, Huanggang is still the city wall of two or three meters today, and there is still a possibility of being breached.

But for the Huanggang City Wall, Qi Heng has long had the idea of renovating.

The re-expansion of Huanggang City with concrete, and the city defense equipped with ballistas, this security is simply outrageous.

However, there is one problem that needs to be solved before this can be done, and that is the problem of labor in the city.

With the current population of more than 5,000 people, it is simply not enough to support such a large project.

Thinking of this, Qi Heng looked at Zheng Guangzu on the side.

This kid was born to be a spy.

Feeling Qi Heng's gaze, Zheng Guangzu, who was standing obediently on the side, tightened his heart.

After more than ten minutes of conversation, Zheng Guangzu left Huanggang City with five soldiers with a very good relationship with a look of grievance.

The task given to him by Qi Heng was very simple, to instigate the people of other cities to come to Huanggang.

The conditions given have not changed, and those who are registered are provided with shelter and work opportunities, and each person is rewarded with a one-time half-liter of food.

At the same time, it was promised that all the people in the city would be equal, and there would be no class distinction.

With such conditions, Qi Heng believes that it is still very attractive to the people of the outer city.

Early the next morning.

Because at this time, there was still no one to manage the county government in the city, and the people around him were all sent by him to carry out the corresponding tasks, Qi Heng could only come to the county government to deal with daily affairs.

It's just that Qi Heng was a little surprised that not long after he arrived, he was told by the soldiers outside the yamen that there were many scholars to apply.

The reason why he had to entertain Yu Guangdao before was to divide the connection between them little by little.

But he never imagined that in just one night, this fragile and short-lived "alliance" would collapse.

It's just that among these people, none of the three people who were strongly recommended by Zheng Guangzu at the beginning came.

Although there are some regrets, it doesn't matter, they can't run away.

Thinking of this, Qi Heng beckoned the soldiers to invite all the people who responded outside the door in.

Just when Qi Heng greeted these scholars who came to apply, Zhou Nian's mansion on the other side of the city.

Chang Yan, Shi Caiying, and Shen Yongwang came here together.

As soon as he entered the door, he looked at Zhou Nian, who was writing quietly at home, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhou's heart is really powerful, I don't know how many people haven't fallen asleep this night, but Brother Zhou can still be so leisurely and elegant, I really admire it." ”

Obviously, the personal relationship between several people is not bad, and they know most of Zhou Nian's temperament, so they joke casually.

After Zhou Nian finished writing the last stroke, he raised his head with a smile, looked at the three of them and said, "Others can't sleep, can't the three of them still sleep?" ”

Chang Yan, Shi Caiying, and Shen Yongwang all shook their heads and smiled at each other, and said: "Since our Lord Qi has already put on a posture, why should we pretend to be hypocritical, it is not easy to have a place to live in this troubled world now, Brother Zhou might as well meet this Mr. Qi with us, if there is really no appearance of the Lord, it will not hurt to leave then." ”

Listening to the words of the three of them, Zhou Nian just smiled slightly, and said: "If the three of them want to go, why bother to pull me, I am used to being idle, and now I have nothing to do to dig and mine to earn some food to make a living, but I am also comfortable." ”

Shi Caiying, one of the three, immediately said: "Brother Zhou, why are you doing this, Brother Zhou is full of wealth, but now he is committed to hard work, isn't it a pity that he has studied hard for so many years?" ”

Zhou Nian was unmoved: "The three of you don't persuade, Zhou Nian has made up his mind." ”

The three people on the other side sighed helplessly, although they were very clear about Zhou Nian's temperament, but the four of them couldn't advance and retreat together, and they still had some regrets.

"Well, since that's the case, I'll go and give Brother Zhou a front station first, and then I'll wait for Brother Zhou."

With that, the three of them took their leave.

A moment later.

In the hall of the county office, following the announcement of the soldiers, Chang Yan, Shi Caiying, and Shen Yongwang walked in.

But no matter how much they guessed, they didn't expect that the first time they saw Qi Heng, it would be such a scene.

At this time, in the hall of the county government, more than 20 scholars were sitting in a circle, sitting on the blanket and sitting on the ground without restraint.

It's like the scene of the sages in ancient times when they were talking about the Tao.

And Qi Heng, who is in the limelight, also has a kind face, without the slightest, and chats casually with the readers around him.

From time to time, it caused a burst of laughter from everyone.

When he saw Chang Yan, Shi Caiying, and Shen Yongwang outside the hall walking in, Qi Heng immediately beckoned them to join in like old friends.

"The conditions of the county government are poor, and I can't find so many chairs for a while, I hope the three of them won't be surprised."

Chang Yan, Shi Caiying, and Shen Yongwang are not old-fashioned and sour Confucians, where do they care about this, so they immediately replied: "My lord is polite, such a scene is quite ancient." ”

Qi Heng smiled heartily.

At the same time, those scholars on the side immediately began to introduce the identities of Chang Yan, Shi Caiying, and Shen Yongwang.

When he learned that these three people were the three people recommended by Zheng Guangzu, Qi Heng's eyes lit up.
