"Lord Wu, I'll go out for a while, and if someone looks for me, you will say that I went to the War Bureau."

Li Wei left his seat and greeted Wu Bozong.

Wu Bozong, who was busy with official business, raised his head and agreed, without saying much, in fact, it is common for the official government to skip work, as long as it is not delayed, the chief official generally does not care, not to mention that Li Wei himself is the chief official of Wenyuan Pavilion, and he is going to do the errand assigned by the emperor, and he is not really skipping work.

Out of Wenyuan Pavilion, Li Wei inquired with the guards about the location of the War Bureau, and then went out of the noon gate.

The layout of the palace is the innermost palace, this hall and that hall are all in the palace, and the Wenyuan Pavilion where Li Wei works is on the edge of the noon gate of the palace, which is also considered to be the palace, so it has the name of the cabinet.

There is an imperial city outside the palace, and the imperial city is mainly the various yamen of the inner court, the pro-army Yulinwei, the Taimiao, and the Sheji, and then the Yingtianfu.

The so-called Sheji, is the earth god and the god of ceres, as an agricultural civilization, these two are the foundation of the country, worship the ancestors in the temple, worship these two gods in the community, this is the foundation of the ancient feudal society: based on agriculture, with the code of ethics as the order, there is the foundation of the body, there is the order of the young and old, in order to stably support such a huge national organization!

Li Wei swayed out of the noon gate, and saw an old man holding an oversized "brush" at the door and writing the floor tiles on the side, and there was a bucket not far away, which looked quite a bit like the taste of the park master in the future.

At first, Ru Taisu thought it was interesting to practice calligraphy in this way, but after a while, he didn't think so, and the original italic characters became wild grass, and he couldn't wait to finish writing millions of words in one go.

This situation made Li Wei can't help but stop, and stepped forward with a happy smile:

"Yo, Uncle Ru, what about practicing calligraphy?"

Ru Taisu, who was concentrating on writing "homework", raised his head when he heard this, and when he saw that it was Li Wei, a traitor, his face suddenly darkened, and he stopped what he was doing and pointed at Li Wei and scolded:

"Shameless traitor, you will be punished sooner or later!"

"Hehe, why is the old man still in a bad temper, really! Forget it, we don't have the same knowledge as you. ”

Li Wei laughed dryly, not as knowledgeable as him, whistling and turning around.

"You ......"

"Stop! Don't go, hurry up and write! ”

Ru Taisu also wanted to catch up and reprimand a few words, but was stopped by the imperial history who supervised him.

"My lord, can you be accommodating?"

Ru Taisu lowered his posture and begged.

"No way!"

Yu Shi Yizheng's refusal of words, these officials were specially selected by Zhu Yuanzhang, and scolding people is scolding, but most of them do adhere to principles, to put it bluntly, they admit death and are not emotional, and it is impossible for him to be accommodating!

Ru Taisu reluctantly returned to his original position and continued to work hard......

Li Wei was turning around, and finally found this military battle in the northwest corner of the imperial city, and there was a clanging sound from time to time, which sounded quite busy.

After entering the door, a craftsman who was working hurriedly greeted him, and when he saw that he was wearing an official uniform, he did not dare to slack off.

"The villain meets the adult, dare to ask why this adult is here?"

"Oh, Your Majesty asked me to come and see, what about your affairs?"

"Your Excellency, please come with me."

Hearing that it was the emperor's will, this craftsman didn't dare to ask more, and hurried forward to lead the way.

Li Wei followed the craftsman to a small house, thinking that it was the department's office, the door was open, and Li Wei saw a familiar figure in his eyes.

"Little Dezi, why are you here?"

"Lady Lee......"

Xiao Dezi turned his head when he heard the voice, saw that it was Li Wei, and hurriedly got up.

A middle-aged craftsman who was sitting opposite him who was slightly better dressed than an ordinary craftsman also hurriedly got up, and when he heard Xiao Dezi shouting Li Wei Li, his original face was like a dead ash and suddenly swelled with joy, and his body almost bounced up from the chair and rushed in front of Xiao Dezi to meet him.

"Master Li? Is that Lord Li? Lord Li, you want to save us! ”

The middle-aged craftsman trotted in front of Li Wei and knelt down and hugged his thighs and cried, startling Li Wei.

"Who are you? Get up! ”

Li Wei hurriedly wanted to help him up, but he didn't pull it.

"Lord Li, you want to save us!"

The middle-aged man was unmoved and continued to cry, Li Wei set his eyes on Xiao Dezi, who sighed slightly and explained to Li Wei.

It turned out that as early as the day after Li Wei appeared, after showing Zhu Yuanzhang those things on the computer, Zhu Yuanzhang recruited a group of craftsmen into the imperial city and set up this military bureau, and then he described a few things that he had seen on the computer to these craftsmen and asked them to make them according to his requirements.

At that time, these craftsmen were stupid, why don't you use oxen and horses, you can drive an iron car for thousands of miles a day with just one person; You don't need to ignite, as long as you pull the trigger, you can shoot continuously, all kinds of things that Zhu Yuanzhang said sound like fantasy to them, and they are crazy!

But if the emperor has a will, they must be made, and Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care whether they believe it or not!

As a result, they made two things that were not like each other, and Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry when he saw it, scolded them, and claimed that he would cut off their heads if they couldn't make them again, which frightened this group of craftsmen!

But what can they do, they have done their best!

The middle-aged craftsman in front of him is called Fang Jianbao, he is the head of the department here, and there are several other stewards besides him.

And Xiao Dezi is the eunuch appointed by Zhu Yuanzhang to take charge of the palm seal of the War Bureau, the inner court of the palace is like this, the eunuch controls the inner court on behalf of the imperial power, and it is impossible for the inner court yamen to let those officials take care of things.

Li Wei rolled his eyes after knowing what was going on, this old Zhu, he thought those things could really be made casually? That is the crystallization of the wisdom of countless elites with superior wisdom in later generations for hundreds of years!

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that it was unlikely, but this did not prevent him from letting people give it a try, if it really happened, then Li Wei would not be so important, and when the time came, it would not be as simple as playing the board if he angered him again!

"Alright, get up quickly, and take me over to see what you've made."

Li Wei pulled this Fang Jianbao up with all his might.

Hearing that Li Wei was going to see what they had made, Fang Jianbao wiped his tears and stood up, but he still grabbed Li Wei's sleeve in his hand, as if he was afraid that he would run away, although this was very rude, but he couldn't care about it for the sake of his life.

Fang Jianbao took Li Wei to a vacant lot, and in the center of the field was placed a strange-shaped iron car, the body of this car was all made of iron sheets, but there were only three wheels, and there were two hockey sticks similar to pedals in front, and the whole looked similar to the tricycle of the pedals of later generations, except that he was not a chain underneath, but a bunch of gears connected to the wheel axle behind it.

"Yes, you guys actually built all the tricycles!"

Li Wei looked at such a "tricycle" in surprise, and praised Niu Bi in his mouth, these ancient craftsmen can make this thing under the persecution of life and death!

Fang Jianbao listened to Li Wei's praise, but his face was not happy at all, this tricycle was "thousands of miles" different from the "thousands of miles a day" required by His Majesty.

Fang Jianbao recruited a craftsman and demonstrated it to Li Wei, this person stepped on the "pedals" and pedaled hard, and the tricycle moved slowly, although the craftsman was already working hard, but the speed of this thing was a little faster than ordinary people walking, but mortals could walk faster than it if they were in a hurry.

After all, this thing doesn't have bearings, lubricating oil or anything like in later generations, so it's hard to kick it on!
