"It's a gun test inside?"

Hearing the sound of birds, Yang Chengying naturally thought that he was testing.

"Yes. General Shang is here, and he is testing the bird gun with a group of soldiers. ”

The soldier guarding the door said.

Shang Kexi is here.

Yang Chengying turned his head to look at Xu Guangqi and Wan Hongzuo, and said, "The two of you, please dismount and enter the Ordnance Bureau to take a look." ”

"It couldn't be better."

Xu Guangqi turned over and dismounted, it was the first time he came to the Ordnance Bureau.

Wan Hongzuo didn't want to go in, but seeing that Xu Guangqi had dismounted, he had no choice but to dismount.

Yang Chengying had asked the soldiers guarding the door to inform Mao Yuanyi and the others.

Mao Yuanyi, Sun Yuanhua, Shang Kexi and Qi Dazhuang all walked out quickly.

The two sides saluted and exchanged a few words of greeting.

Let's walk into the Ordnance Bureau.

Bang bang bang ......!

Another sound of birds.

Puffs of smoke drifted into the sky.

"You don't want to stay in Zhenyu City, why did you come to the Ordnance Bureau?"

Yang Chengying asked.

"I heard that the Ordnance Bureau had another batch of bird guns, and I couldn't bear it, so I came to see it."

Shang Kexi scratched his head embarrassedly.

He didn't expect that as soon as he arrived, he would be caught by the big handsome.

"Mr. Fan, do they know about this?" Yang Chengying asked.

"Of course I do." Shang Kexi hurriedly explained, "If they didn't know, I wouldn't dare to come here." ”

"What about Xie Simei and the others?"

"They're all good, and I brought them with me."

"Oh? Take me to see it. ”

Under the guidance of Shang Kexi, Yang Chengying came to the scene of the bird release.

Sure enough, among the people who tested the gun, there were female soldiers such as Xie Simei.

They are very skilled at wiping guns, loading ammunition, fuses, aiming ahead, and lighting the fuses.

Bang bang bang......

"Okay. You're training well. ”

Yang Chengying praised.

Shang Kexi hurriedly humbly thanked for the praise.

Yang Chengying didn't step forward to disturb Xie Simei and them, and it could be seen that they had adapted quite well to the life of female soldiers and were happily testing their guns.

If I disturb them, I will be chattering for a long time.

Yang Chengying monk Kexi returned to the army.

Mao Yuanyi hugged his fists and said: "Yang Shuai, we used the Fan casting method to cast a cannon, tested it, and the results were very good, please give Yang Shuai a name." ”

"Oh? Take me to see it. ”

Yang Chengying was excited.

The lost wax method has a seasonal limit, while the fan casting method does not. However, the accuracy of the fan casting method is far less than that of the lost wax method, and it is not easy to succeed in casting.

The crowd came to a cannon covered with a red cloth.

Mao Yuanyi asked the guards to lift the red cloth.

An iron cannon appeared in front of him.

The cannon weighed 3,000 pounds, and it took four horses to go out to test the cannon.

Xu Guangqi's eyes lit up, he had always liked the Hongyi cannon the most, and now that the disciple and Mao Yuanyi had successfully cast the cannon, he felt both relieved and proud.

"I dare not take the name of the person."

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "You, Mr. Sun and the craftsmen have contributed the most, and I am a person who has not moved a finger, so I am not suitable for giving a name." ”

Sun Yuanhua clenched his fists and said: "Without Yang Shuai's full support, we would not have been able to cast such a good cannon." It is reasonable for Yang Shuai to give a name, don't shirk it anymore. ”

"In that case, it might as well be like this."

Yang Chengying looked at Wan Hongzuo, "The princess will come to Jinzhou Town soon, so I will ask the princess to give a name to this Hongyi cannon." ”

Wan Hongzuo was stunned when he heard this, and asked the princess to give the cannon a name, is this appropriate?

"What do you think?" Yang Chengying asked.

"Well, of course." Wan Hongzuo couldn't think of anything wrong, so he had to agree.

"Then please ask Lord Wan to convey it for me."

Yang Chengying climbed along the pole.

"No problem."

Wan Hongzuo agreed, but he was playing the drum in his heart, and he always felt that Yang Chengying had other intentions.

Yang Chengying inadvertently saw the embarrassment on Sun Yuanhua and Mao Yuanyi's faces, and seemed to have something to say to him.

"There are no outsiders here, the two of you have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk."

Yang Chengying took the initiative to speak.

Mao Yuanyi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "Yang Shuai, casting cannons costs a lot of money......"

"I see."

Yang Chengying interrupted him, "I told General Shang Xueli to allocate 300,000 taels of silver to you, and you continue to buy pig iron cast cannons."

In the future, as long as you don't have enough, you can tell me, and I can supply it at any time.

In addition, the craftsmen have worked hard these days. Allocate another 30,000 taels, and let them be sent to them. ”

Thirty thousand taels!

and each brother shall receive a couple of taels of silver.

Qi Dazhuang was so happy that he clenched his fists and thanked him.

Mao Yuanyi and Sun Yuanhua also hurriedly thanked them.

"No thanks, you deserve it."

Yang Chengying waved his hand and said.

Wan Hongzuo, who was on the side, had a very ugly face, this kid was very rich, he took hundreds of thousands of taels outside, and he didn't even blink his eyelids.

But in matters such as the princess's mansion, he was worried about himself.

It's really not a thing, and it has to give birth to a good skin.

Those people are also lard, and they are actually grateful to this kind of person.

Thinking of this, Wan Hongzuo's face became even more ugly.

Xu Guangqi was very emotional.

I have been on the book several times, and the imperial court always picks and searches when buying Hongyi cannons, how can Yang Chengying be generous.

Looking at it this way, Sun Yuanhua can be regarded as following the right person, and he will be able to show his talents in the future.

And they looked at the rest of the world.

In the afternoon, he came out of the Ordnance Bureau.

It was getting late, so I had to continue looking for a suitable address tomorrow.

That night, Wan Hongzuo wrote a letter and asked the servants to take it to the capital and give it to the princess.

The letter was brought into the palace by Wan Changzuo's wife, Li, and handed over to Zhu Huixian.

Since the mother and daughter are no longer mother and daughter in name, and Zhu Huixian is a princess, the Li family still has to bow down to her.

Zhu Huixian accepted it with tears in her eyes, and asked Chun Tao to quickly help Li up and sit down.

"This is Wan Hongzuo's letter to the princess, please take a look."

Li held it in both hands and handed it to Chun Tao.

Chun Tao opened the envelope and put the mud seal on it, took out the letter inside, and handed it to Zhu Huixian.

"Master Wan has been going to Jinzhou Town for some time, and I'm really tired."

Zhu Huixian said and looked at it again.

The puzzled expression on his face grew thicker and thicker.

Li Shi asked curiously, "Princess, what did Wan Hongzuo say in the letter?" ”

"He said that Yang Chengying is a very stingy person, and he would rather cast hundreds of thousands of taels of silver into Hongyi cannons than spend a penny to repair the princess's mansion."

Zhu Huixian smiled slightly and handed the letter to Chun Tao.

Fold the spring peaches and put them back in the envelope.

"What a stingy man!" Lee was indignant.

"The letter also said that I hope I will give a name to a new Hongyi cannon."

"Hongyi cannon? What's that? ”

"A very powerful artillery, weighing 3,800 pounds."

"You still want your name for that thing!"

The Li family lived in the inner garden all the year round, so naturally they did not understand the true meaning of the Hongyi cannon.

Don't talk about her, Zhu Huixian doesn't know very well. What I just said is actually the content of Wan Hongzuo's letter.

In Zhu Huixian's opinion, this is probably the only way to express kindness that a martial artist with little culture can come up with.

"I will write a name and ask Mrs. Wan to take it out of the palace and send it to Lord Wan in Jinzhou Town with the family letter."

Zhu Huixian came to the desk and took the pen handed by Chunxiang.

On the table, there is already rice paper laid by Chunyun.

Zhu Huixian wrote five words on the paper:

God bless the cannon.
