Chapter 112: Organs (2)
"This set is the Tiangong unit. Infinite person, you don't have to look at him and think that he is big and inappropriate, in fact, it is even more wonderful inside, just such a set of units, the speed of creating a trap beast is more than fifty or sixty times that of our Qingzhou rudder. Just send the prepared raw materials from here, and the countless indescribable mechanisms will automatically operate, and the raw materials will be made into various parts of the machine beasts, and then they can be adjusted and assembled by hand."
"You see, this is the secret of the operation of such a huge group of organs, which is propelled by the explosive power of the fire elixir, otherwise it would be almost impossible for such a large-scale crew to run at full strength with water and animal power. And this melting core furnace is one of the core technologies of the Tiangong Organ Group."
"In addition to the chief craftsman, there are also several high-level craftsmen, each of us craftsmen is only responsible for a small stage of work, and we are only familiar with the work we are responsible for. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, so that the craftsman can be extremely familiar with the work in his hands."
In front of me are a hill of mechanisms, and some of them look like a small village composed entirely of mechanisms, but instead of people and animals, they are moving with a variety of mechanisms, emitting the unique creaking sound of wood, stone, gold, and iron, and at first glance it seems to have a strange vitality.
Nangong Wuji and his party had been strolling around this group for a full hour. Hall Master Zhou was almost half-hunched all the way, smiling all the way, eager to lie on the ground and accompany him, all the way to Nangong Wuji and his entourage to visit the Shenji Hall, and everything would be explained in person. The words and sentences are simple and generous, and even the most secret organs can be explained in a few words. Obviously, it was not a temporary statement, but a long time ago, the draft was memorized. The chief craftsman, who is obviously the authority that should speak on the technical aspects of the organ, only giggles from the side. Give him this opportunity to perform.
His hard work was undoubtedly rewarded, whether it was for these organs, for the Divine Machine Hall, or for this heavenly project, Nangong Wuji showed considerable interest, listened carefully to Hall Master Zhou's report with a smile on his face, and asked a few questions from time to time. In addition to endorsing, Hall Master Zhou obviously did more hard work, and he was basically able to answer the main points.
Therefore, Hall Master Zhou was even more excited, even more excited. It wasn't a hot day, but small beads of sweat were already soaking out of his fat face from time to time, and he was all happy.
Walking out of the community of organs, there was just a well-placed resting place, a small collapsible pavilion with delicate and elegant organs, and the temperature of the tea on it was just right, as if it had been brewed after calculating the time when they had come.
The pavilion was not big, and everyone could not be allowed to enter, so Hall Master Zhou and his party stood in the distance very obediently and waited. It's like walking for a while and you need to take a break. You can't go wrong with giving your group some space and time for intimate conversations every once in a while.
"From the gate to the first resting place is three hundred feet, and every rest interval after that is about the same number, and the ground is as clean as if it has been washed. This rest area is also carefully set up. Exhaustive. These people also don't know how much thought has been put into arranging it. Ling Wusheng laughed. The Shadow Shirt Guard Commander, who pretended to be a drunk that day, had been silently following Nangong Wuji's side, with a wine gourd pinned to his waist, and there seemed to be some drunkenness in his eyes all the time. It's like an ordinary retinue that doesn't qualify.
"It's just the nature of a cautious businessman. I prefer to be casual, squatting on the side of the road and smelling and cow dung. Drinking the big leaf tea of the old woman in the village is also much more comfortable than this. Nangong Wuji smiled slightly, and casually denied the results of Hall Master Zhou's hard work in the past few days. If he could hear him standing in the distance and discussing with a few deacons, he would have been so frightened that he would have peed his pants and knelt down in tears. The small tricks that these people have worked hard to come up with are often just self-inflicted cleverness that is not worth laughing at in the eyes of the more open-minded and far-sighted superiors.
"What do you think of this Divine Machine Hall, what about this Heavenly Worker Organ?" Nangong Wuji took a sip of tea and asked casually. Seeing that no one made a sound for a while, he turned to Mingyue and asked, "Mingyue girl, what do you think?"
The subject of this questioning surprised everyone else. Mingyue has never spoken much in front of people, if it weren't for her beautiful appearance, it would be impossible for people to turn a blind eye, and there would be almost no sense of existence, but Nangong Wuji was the first to ask her.
"It's nothing good, it's not interesting at all, it's all dead things of wood, stone, gold and iron, and it's annoying to look at. Mingyue replied expressionlessly. It's rare for her to have such an expression.
"Miss Mingyue, you should have said this earlier. Nangong Wuji seemed to have a deep meaning, and he also smiled a little helplessly. After a pause, he asked Xiang Tianhe Ghost: "Tianhe Zhuang, what do you think?"
"I'm a rough person, where can I see these things. The Tianhe ghost shook his head.
"It's okay, just talk about it. Just tell us how you feel about it. Nangong Wuji smiled.
Tianhe Ghost understood the easy-going simplicity of the old man in front of him, and he didn't have so many twists and turns in his heart, so he thought about it and said, "I don't like these things." The craftsman of the wood and stone mechanism is a sharp weapon in the hands of a small man, and a good man does not need these. The business of this Divine Machine Hall is getting bigger and bigger, and the trap beasts and firearms are becoming more and more ferocious, and these are beginning to be used in the battles on the rivers and lakes. When I first arrived in Qingzhou some time ago, I was almost surrounded and killed by a group of treacherous villains with trap beasts, and ordinary bows and crossbows are just that, and I am not too afraid to muster up my strength. But the mechanism on this beast is not easy to deal with, especially firearms, if it encounters a powerful one, the innate Gang Qi body will not be able to withstand a few hits. The heroes of the rivers and lakes have practiced their martial arts for decades, and they can't stop a few thieves on the street from spending some money to buy two machine beast firearms or something. ”
"The heroes of the rivers and lakes have always looked down on the Shenji Hall, and this is the biggest reason. Nangong Wuji smiled slightly, nodded, and then turned to ask Ling Wusheng: "Five wins." What do you think of this mechanism?"
"It is indeed a sharp weapon, and it is not appropriate to let the private sector go unchecked. It is time to bring it back to the government. Whether it's my shadow shirt guard or the border army, there have been trap beasts in recent years. Extremely useful indeed. If, as the hall master said just now, as long as the raw materials are sufficient, it can produce 100 planes per day, then it will be used to enrich the border army, so why worry about Xidi from now on? If the shadow shirt guard holds it firmly in his hands, who in the world will dare to have bad intentions?"
Ling Wusheng said as he spoke, and the cold light in his eyes grew. But when he spoke, he revealed the unique vision and bearing of the people in the six doors.
But then he sighed again, took off the gourd around his waist and took a sip, the cold light in his eyes faded, and the drunkenness resurfaced. Lazy and lazy chattered: "But this is just thinking about it, such a big piece of meat, neither the imperial court nor the shadow guards have the ability to swallow it in one bite, but it still depends on the strength of the Tang family, fortunately, they will still take care of the dignity of the imperial court on the surface."
"It's nice to have this kind of decency. Nangong Wuji smiled. "I know that you have always had a heart in your heart when you follow them fearlessly. But I don't want to hear you complain, I just want to ask you, just looking at this Tiangong organ, just looking at this Shenji Hall, how do you feel?"
"The work of a craftsman. The talent of a businessman. It's a very useful thing, but that's about it. Ling Wusheng said lightly and glanced at Xiao Xia. "Before, Qingfeng Dao said that this would shake the world and change the world. I think it's too much. ”
Xiao Xia smiled and didn't speak. He knew that Ling Wusheng's idea was exactly what the vast majority of people had, and even he had always agreed with it. In the past dynasties, craftsmen and merchants have always been regarded as unpopular figures. No matter how much money you make, it's nothing in the eyes of the real superiors. Money. After all, it is something that flows under the rules of order, no matter how much money and exquisite objects are, for those who directly control the rules of order, it is just a sentence, at most, it can be taken directly with a little thought and means. Before, Shenjitang had developed very well in Fang Zhifang's hands, and it was probably extremely remarkable in the eyes of ordinary people, but let Fang Zhifang come up with all kinds of tricks, and the money she earned was poured out to change her reputation and status and pull the background, and finally made a wedding dress for others.
But this Tiangong plan is a little different, Xiao Xia personally participated in it, and felt it deeply, those old people of the Shenji Hall were full of confidence in this, and it could be said that they were craftsmen who were concentrating on refining their skills, but Xiao Xia could indeed feel that there seemed to be something different behind it, and something deeper was about to move. But if he wants to say it in detail in an orderly manner, he is unwilling and can't.
"Craftsmen and merchants, it is indeed the same" Nangong Wuji smiled and said leisurely: "Maybe the world in the future will be the world of institutions and the world of money." The craftsman's work and the talent of the merchant are not very popular. ”
These words made everyone else slightly stunned, and then Ling Wusheng shook his head and sneered: "Mr. Wuji said that he laughed, how could there be such a day." No matter how bad the etiquette is, it is not necessarily so unbearable. ”
The Tianhe ghost opened his mouth and just wanted to speak, but suddenly he was stunned as if he remembered something, and he was stunned for a while and then kept silent.
Nangong Wuji also smiled, as if it was just a casual joke just now, and didn't say anything more.
At this time, a brocade-robed man came on foot from a distance. This big man walked with great momentum, and he didn't even look at them when he passed by Hall Master Zhou and other people in the Divine Machine Hall, as if these were just weeds, insects and ants on the side of the road, but Hall Master Zhou and a few others hurriedly bowed and smiled all over their faces. The brocade-robed man walked quickly to the small pavilion and bowed to Nangong Wuji: "Big brother." ”
"Your Excellency, Commander. Ling Wusheng bowed his hand to the brocade-robed man. Xiao Xia also recognized that this big man was Nangong Wuxing, the uncle of He Ji'er whom he had seen in He Jinzhi's house in Maoshan, and he also arched his hand.
Nangong Wudaunt nodded to Xiao Xia, and then said to Nangong Wuji: "Big brother, it's all ready." ”
Nangong Wuji snorted, got up and walked out of the small pavilion. The Tianhe ghost wanted to follow, but Ling Wusheng stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "This Tianhe brother, Mr. Wuji is going to discuss important matters on this trip, and even I can't follow him, so you don't have to go." ”
But the Tianhe Ghost didn't buy much of this Shadow Shirt Guard, and his eyes glared: "I am in the name of Lord Liu, and I will protect Mr. Wuji all the way." You can control the eagle dogs of the Shadowshirts, but you can't control me. ”
Ling Wusheng smiled and wanted to say something, but Nangong Wuji first turned his head and smiled at the Tianhe Ghost and said, "Tianhe Zhuang, the people I went to see were very thin-skinned, and I couldn't see outsiders, so I bothered you to wait here for a while." You also happen to be close to the Five Victorious Commanders. ”
Tianhe Ghost was stunned, but he couldn't help but listen to Nangong Wuji's words, so he had to stay in the pavilion and glanced at Ling Wusheng angrily.
At this time, Nangong Wuji said to Xiao Xia again: "Why don't you come with me, it just so happens that you also know this guest." ”
Xiao Xia was a little surprised, but after thinking about it slightly, he stopped talking and followed with steps, and Mingyue naturally followed by his side. Nangong Wuji's brows furrowed, but after glancing at Nangong Wuji, he didn't say anything, he only turned his head to lead the way in front, and walked towards the huge group of organs like a bazaar.
Seeing the backs of Nangong Wuji and his party disappear into the group, Hall Master Zhou and his party who were waiting in the distance had no choice but to continue to wait there in place. Naturally, they were taken care of in advance, and they knew what they should do and what they couldn't do, but this was clearly on their own territory, but it was controlled by others, and they could only wait in the corner for orders, which also made the faces of several old people not look good, and the chief craftsman muttered in a low voice: "This shadow guard is also really weird, what secret things do people want to discuss in other places, but they want to come to our place and give us instructions."
Even if it was far enough away, the voice of the chief craftsman was only a low whining and would never be heard by everyone in the distance, but Hall Master Zhou still turned around and glared at the old man who didn't know the general situation. Deacon Tang on the side said lightly with an expressionless face as if he was reminding: "Don't understand what you don't understand, just look at what you should see, just do what you should do and what you can do, and don't pay attention to the rest." ”
"It's still Deacon Tang who understands things in general. Hall Master Zhou hurriedly turned his head and squeezed out a smile.
Deacon Tang smiled and nodded, really like an ordinary steward who had been praised by his boss. However, after a pause, he suddenly said: "My subordinates suddenly have some discomfort in their stomachs, and it is convenient to go, and I ask the hall master to forgive me." ”
Hall Master Zhou naturally said with a smile on his face: "Deacon Tang is going by himself, anyway, it will be fine for us to stay here." The weather is getting cooler, and we old bones should pay attention to our own bodies. ”
Seeing Deacon Tang hurriedly walking away in the opposite direction to Nangong Wuji, the chief craftsman couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with Old Tang?
"Look at what you should see, do what you have to do, and don't pay attention to anything else. Master Zhou didn't look back, but just repeated Deacon Tang's words just now with an expressionless face, and the kind and kind smile just now was no longer visible. (To be continued......)
