Volume 2 Riding the Wind Chapter 199 Proceeding Smoothly

As soon as Zhang Mu arrived at the door, Mi Muyun shouted again: "Come back? ”

"What's wrong?" Zhang Mu obediently retreated to his original place.

Mi Muyun summoned Su Lian outside the door and said, "Go and find the smelting master." ”

"Yes, Lord." Su Lian turned and retreated.

"Who's the smelter?" Zhang Mu asked.

"You don't plan to build a path in the canyon, I helped you find a master of the spiritual work department to help you succeed!" Mi Muyun said lightly.

"Mu Yun really has a heart." Zhang Mu smiled and said.

"That's nature." Mi Muyun glanced at Zhang Mu slightly, and said with a little coquettishness: "I won't be like you, I want to be a play, and I don't have a little rules to do things!" ”

The spiritual work department of the Miluo Imperial Court can be said to be the best place in the world to build and build, and all kinds of spiritual tools in the entire Chengzhou territory, such as the floating treasure ship, the red flame spirit arrow, the star Luo array map, etc., are all from the spiritual work department.

Among them, the spirit craftsmen with the name of the great worker are even rarer, and each of them has a unique casting skill in a certain aspect.

The smelting master that Mi Muyun found this time is one of the best in the construction process.

Zhang Mu learned the general situation of the spiritual work department and the big work from Mi Muyun's mouth, and his joy was really overflowing.

With the participation of this great smelter, he was just around the corner from building a successful trade road.

Ye Ji followed Su Lian to the cabin, first bowed respectfully to Mi Muyun behind the light gauze screen, and then said to Zhang Mu: "Ye Yu has seen Lord Baifu Inspector. ”

Zhang Mu saw that this person looked at his forties, his skin was slightly dark, his eyes were bright and clear, and he had the cultivation of the early stage of gathering spirits.

On the whole, he was indeed a rare spirit craftsman, and responded with a smile: "I've seen a master smelter." ”

"Ye Yu, you will stay with Zhang Qing's family for the time being in the future and obey his dispatch!" Mi Mu Yun said in a majestic voice.

"Obey the orders of Lord Guardian!" Ye Yu responded respectfully.

After Mi Muyun finished explaining, he waved his hand through the light gauze screen and said, "Go down!" ”

After Ye Yong left, Mi Muyun stretched out his hand to summon the chessboard and said to Zhang Mu: "Come here!" ”

Zhang Mu sat down in front of Mi Muyun again, raised a son, and said, "Muyun, when will the reward of that spirit stone come down?" ”

Mi Muyun closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Play chess!" ”

Seeing the situation, Zhang Mu didn't dare to ask more, and obediently played against Mi Muyun.

A day passed.

Mi Muyun lost more than a dozen games in a row to Zhang Mu, and then left satisfied.

Zhang Mu temporarily arranged the smelting masterpiece, the two floating treasure ships, and all the craftsmen on it to live in Dongming City.

Then, he came to the Lingya Mansion.

Zhang Mu found Yu Lechuan and told Yu Lechuan about the way he envisioned employing people.

Yu Lechuan listened to it, was silent for a long time, and after thinking clearly about the pros and cons in the middle, his eyes were hot, and he said: "Lord Inspector's discussion, it really makes Lechuan breathtaking!" ”

"I plan to try it out in Lingya Mansion first, but Lechuan is due to objections?" Zhang Mu asked.

Yu Lechuan thought for a while and said, "How should this month be established and the position?" ”

"The position is the same as the existing position, just add the word temporary in front, and the monthly service is the same as the main position." Zhang Mu said.

"Temporary sentry order, temporary guard, temporary master book..."Yu Lechuan chewed a few times in his mouth and said: "My lord, this method is wonderful!" ”

"How should the number of years of its regularization be divided?" Yu Lechuan asked.

"Qi refining cultivators are temporarily limited to thirty years, and foundation building is slightly shorter, tentatively twenty years, and above gathering spirits, unification is tentatively set at ten years." Zhang Mu said.

"Isn't that too short?" Yu Lechuan objected.

Zhang Mu shook his head and said, "The term is only tentative, and it can be changed according to specific matters in the future." ”

"Lechuan understood." Yu Lechuan nodded, frowned slightly and said: "This month's expenditure is not a small amount, and it can be allocated from the treasury of the government in the early stage, if it continues for a long time, it will be difficult to support!" ”

"There's nothing to worry about." Zhang Mu said.

"Do you have a solution?" Yu Lechuan asked.

Zhang Mu smiled and said: "Abandon old thoughts and open up a wide range of business paths!" ”

"How?" Yu Lechuan was puzzled.

"For example, there are several large spiritual veins in Lingya Mansion, but now they are limited to manpower, and there are only a few that can be mined. Zhang Mu said.

"What do you mean?" Yu Lechuan asked.

Zhang Mu took a sip of the tea on the table and said: "Let them find someone to mine, leaving 20% of the operating costs and profits, and the government only needs to collect the remaining 80% from it, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone!" ”

When Yu Lechuan heard this method, he was surprised and didn't say anything for a long time, and after a long time, he said stupidly: "My lord, this method is really a precedent for all generations, which is amazing!" ”

After half a day, the two discussed many details, and Zhang Mu left Lingya Mansion and went to Xiting City.

Xiting Mansion.

Liu Gong thought that Zhang Mu was just a small Wenling beside the Baifu Inspector, but when he met Mi Muyun, he saw that Zhang Mu was able to accompany Mi Muyun, and immediately understood that Zhang Mu's identity was definitely not as simple as it seemed.

At this time, seeing Zhang Mu coming, he said more enthusiastically than last time.

"The presence of the envoy really makes my Xiting Mansion shine!"

Zhang Mu also understood the reason for Liu Gong's change in attitude towards him, smiled faintly, and said, "Liu Fuzhi is polite. ”

"Dare to ask the envoy to come this time, but what are the orders of Lord Gomori?" Liu Gong asked.

Zhang Mu glanced left and right and said, "These? ”

Liu Gong smiled, waved his hand and retreated from the main hall, and said, "These are Liu's cronies, don't get in the way!" ”

Zhang Mu smiled, and only after a few people left, did he speak: "Zhengjun Yushou is very satisfied with Liu Liu's rule. ”

flattered Liu Gong and continued: "I came this time, and I really want to discuss something with Liu Fuzhi. ”

"Envoy, please." Liu Gong said.

"Build a business road." Zhang Mu said.

"Oh?" Liu Gong was suspicious and said, "But you want to build a trade route between Xiting Mansion and Yunlu Wilderness?" ”

"Not bad." Zhang Mu replied.

"Why did the envoy build a trade route?" Liu Gong asked.

Zhang Mu briefly described the specific plan of the business journey and said: "Does Liu Fuzhi have any other doubts? ”

"I didn't expect that the adults would find the master of the spiritual work department, so there would be no problem with the construction." Liu Gong paused and said, "However, how to raise the money spent on this?" ”

"Xiting Mansion will give out a part, and then find the Chamber of Commerce in the city to borrow a part." Zhang Mu said.

"Looking for a chamber of commerce to borrow?" Liu Gong was puzzled.

Zhang Mu chuckled, explained in detail to Liu Gong how to borrow money from the Chamber of Commerce, and said, "What does Liu Fuzhi think of this move?" ”

Liu Gong listened to it and said secretly, no wonder Princess Zhengjun valued this son so much, and let him accompany him to the near side, even he admired such talents, and praised from the bottom of his heart: "It's really wonderful!" ”

The two of them discussed the business until midnight.

Zhang Mu said before leaving: "Liu Fuzhi, I want to build a chamber of commerce in the city, I don't know if I can get the support of Liu Fuzhi?" ”

"The envoy can do it, I'll take care of everything!" Liu Gong said with a smile.

Zhang Mu arched his hand and said, "Then I will thank Liu Fuzhi first!" ”

"Well said, well said." Liu Gong said: "Your Excellency, I see that it is a night today, why don't you have a few drinks together?" ”

Zhang Mu also wanted to get closer to Liu Gong at this time, thoroughly probe his true attitude, and immediately laughed and said: "You should be willing!" ”

In an elegant house.

Liu Gong called Bi Ape and drank with Zhang Mu for half a night.

During this period, under Liu Gong's intentional confiding, Zhang Mu learned about the relationship between the two and Bi Hu, and also saw that the two were indeed people who wanted to make some merits.

Seeing this, Zhang Mu may promise the two of them, as long as Mi Muyun completely controls Cangling Yu in the future, he will definitely not forget the exploits of the two of them.

The two of them also complimented and replied, and they said that they would do their best for Princess Zhengjun in the future.

Day 2.

Liu Gong acted resolutely, and in the name of Xiting Mansion, he found the presidents of dozens of large chambers of commerce and told them in detail about the business plan.

Most of the presidents of the chamber of commerce expressed their willingness to support after learning about the pros and cons.

After all, once the business road opens, the profits they can obtain will definitely be several times higher than now, so no one is unwilling to agree to the benefits of both parties.

Afterwards, Liu Gong expressed his determination to support Princess Zhengjun, and directly handed over all the spirit stones raised to Zhang Mu, so that Zhang Mu could start the construction business as soon as possible.

...

Hurried two months later.

Zhang Mu came to Tongyun Pass, flew more than 1,000 miles, and landed in the middle of the canyon, a square berth with a length and width of nearly 1,000 zhang and a height of 40 or 50 zhang.

Its overall appearance, showing the top and the bottom, is like an upside-down cone-shaped peak, and there are not only lookout spirit cannons around it, but also a thin spiritual curtain that protects the entire square parking platform.

Above the platform, several large halls stand tall, and there are also rows of rowed houses built around it, for monks to travel between the two places, stopping to rest on the way.

In the outer ring, there is a wide square that is extremely flat and can be used to dock some large Feitun spirit equipment, such as floating treasure ships.

Under the platform, there are straight and glorious walls built around the four circles, no less than ten zhang high, with two gates, and there are several towers at the four corners to guard against the gravel scorpions in the canyon, and so on and so on.

In this way, after Zhang Mu and the smelting industry and commerce discussed the plan, they planned to build one every thousand miles.

And sent the guards of the government to garrison it, so as to ensure that the monks of the Chamber of Commerce who traveled between the two places could stop at any time on the way.

In order to reduce the danger of consignment of goods between the two places, increase the frequency of the flow of goods in various chambers of commerce, and make the originally dangerous nearly 30,000 miles of canyon into a smooth road.

When the smelting master saw Zhang Mu coming, he put down the matter in his hand and came to Zhang Mu and said.

"Ye Yu has seen Lord Baifu Inspector!"

Zhang Mu nodded and said, "How much time does it take to complete the construction of this berth?" ”

"It's going to take about half a month." Ye Hui replied.

Zhang Mu was led by Ye Yong, and while inspecting, he said: "It's been a long time, will it be faster later?" ”

"Since this is the first place, it will be relatively slow, and after the craftsman is proficient, he will be able to build one in half a month." Ye Yu said.

Zhang Mu was more satisfied with this time, and said: "If it goes on like this, it will be all built in less than a year." ”

Ye Yu followed up and said, "Lord Inspector, as you said before, there is a way to avoid those flying birds in the valley, I don't know if it is a way?" ”

"If this is possible, then it will be faster to build in overtime at night!"

Zhang Mu took out a bottle of spirit powder and said, "The smell of these powders can tend to avoid ink owls, as for the spirit powder that tends to avoid other exotic birds, it is still being prepared, and I will bring it to you when it is ready." ”

Ye Yu took the spirit powder, looked at it, and said, "Are these spirit powders really so magical?" ”

"Just try it." Zhang Mu smiled and said.

"I'll try it later." Ye Yu said.

Zhang Mu walked around here for a long time, and when he saw that everything was going well, he got up and returned to Dongming Mansion.
