"Well, have you heard? There is a prince in Qiongzhou, I heard that it seems to be the Nine Emperors! ”

"Of course I heard about it, it is said that he is eight feet tall, with a green face and fangs, he kills people without blinking, and all of his subordinates are ruthless, especially the one named Yang Yong, who is the most poisonous Jinyi guard!"

"Jinyiwei I know, the minions of the imperial court, but I heard that the clothes are beautiful, flying fish suits, if we can wear them and go to the village for a walk, those little girls still have to propose marriage immediately?"

"You know that you daydream, don't you know that Jinyiwei specializes in inhuman things? Raiding the family and exterminating the clan, taking people's lives, the civil and military officials of Great Xia have to bow their heads in front of them! ”

"I also heard that there is a gentleman under the prince who is like a god, who can calculate good fortune and evil, and can know the past and the future."

"Fart, that's all a trick of the charlatans. Of course, there is an advantage to this prince's coming, it is said that we will not collect farmland tax in Qiongzhou in the future. ”

"What? And such a good thing, farming does not pay taxes? ”

"Of course, that was said by the prince himself, and he also said that he would develop a free port in Qiongzhou and provide various services for passing ships, anyway, the prince would make a big deal!"

"I see, it's all a lie, since ancient times, the county order of the broken family exterminated the clan's Fuyi, if he can come to our Qiongzhou, it must be without money, so he was assigned to the place where the bird doesn't. If you want me to say, wait and see, in a few days I will take you one by one to serve hard labor! ”

"Don't scare me, I just got my little daughter-in-law!"

……

Outside the city of Qiongzhou.

In front of a humble teahouse, a man wearing a hat was sitting, and he took out two copper plates from his arms and threw them to the owner of the tea stall.

"Checkout!"

"Okay, the guest officer will come back next time."

The boss flatteringly bowed forward and cleaned up the tea set, but under the tea bowl was a small strip of cloth, and the owner of the tea stall looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he put it in his arms and came to the back kitchen fire room.

The expression on his face immediately became solemn.

He bowed down and handed it over: "Your Highness, this is the latest information!" ”

In the fire room, a fireman slowly raised his head. Looking at it, it was Qin Xian, who took the information and waved his hand.

"Let's go down!"

"No!"

Qin Xian opened it and looked at it, but his brows were slightly furrowed.

"This Qin Yun is so strictly guarded, but since you are going to the Casting God Villa, it will be even better, this is called Heaven has a road for you not to go, and there is no door for hell for you to come, hehe......"

Qin Xian sneered and threw the strip of cloth in the fire, since the last time he separated from Yuan Shaoqing, he had come to Qiongzhou, trying to find Qin Yun's flaws to get the formula for gunpowder.

However, the secrecy work on Qiongzhou's side was beyond Qin Xian's imagination, and even many locals did not know about the existence of these workshops.

It wasn't until two days ago that Qin Xian got the news that Qin Yun was going to recruit people to expand the workshop, and he just wanted to see if he could get in.

At this time, a red horse came from the tea stall.

"Shopkeeper, let's have a bowl of tea!"

Qin Xian subconsciously lowered his head when he heard the voice, and he leaned against the earthen wall in the back kitchen.

"Well, it's coming soon!"

The owner of the jujube red horse is none other than Yang Yong, the brocade guard who is known as murderous in people's mouths.

He looked at the seemingly inconspicuous tea stall, but began to mumble in his heart, as Jin Yiwei's intuition told him that there must be something strange here.

Because, on this hot day, everyone else is setting up stalls to sell coconuts, and you sell hot tea, and it is also the accent of Guanzhong. Guanzhong people came here to open a store, and they earned these three melons and two dates?

Isn't that just funny!

Soon, the tea was served, and Yang Yong picked up an ant from the ground and trampled it to death and threw it in.

"Smack!"

"What kind of bird shop, Xiao Er, come and take a look, what's in here?"

A cold color flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, but then it was replaced by a flattering expression.

"Guest officer, I'll take a look!"

"I'm really sorry, I didn't expect bugs to crawl in, so okay, I'll go and bring you another bowl!"

Yang Yong didn't give up: "Serve a bowl?" I see, you're a black shop, let me go in and see if your kitchen is unhygienic! ”

Saying that, he picked up the knife and walked straight to the back kitchen, at this time, the shopkeeper's face changed, and two five big and three thick men also poured out of the back kitchen.

Yang Yong sneered: "It turns out that it's really a black shop!" ”

The shopkeeper snorted coldly: "I think you're here to find fault." ”

Yang Yong dropped two taels of silver: "Find fault, no, no, I'm here to drink tea, I'm offended, say goodbye!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and left without saying a word.

The shopkeeper sneered again and again: "Cowardice!"

But at this time, Qin Xian came out of the back kitchen and shouted, "Quick, get out of here quickly." ”

The shopkeeper was puzzled: "Your Highness, what's wrong?" ”

"Less nonsense, burn the shop, leave quickly!"

After saying that, he got on a big horse and walked away.

The shopkeeper and the others didn't know why, but they still went to light the tea stall as instructed.

Not long after, Yang Yong arrived with dozens of shadow guards.

"Damn it, chase it for Lao Tzu!"

Yang Yong is a smart man, although he has a firearm in his hand, he didn't startle the snake, but he didn't expect the people here to be so alert.

He led people to chase for a long time but still had no gain, and finally had to return to the city to recover his life.

"Lord Wang, today I found a group of suspicious people outside the city!"

Qin Yun was checking the folds handed over by the officials in Qiongzhou.

He frowned slightly: "Say, what's the matter?" ”

"Lord Wang, a few days ago, didn't you catch some spies who wanted to spy on our arsenal room? The lowly duty has been tracking down the mastermind behind the scenes, and today he came to a tea stall with someone, which sells hot tea on a hot day. ”

"I came back and took someone to check on it first, but I didn't expect them to run away and set fire to the tea stall."

"It's not a trivial matter."

Qin Yun bowed slightly: "What you said is right, when everyone knows that this king has a firearm in his hand today, they just want to get the gunpowder formula." This thing really can't be leaked out. ”

"In this way, another 500 people will be selected to form a secret department, which will be responsible for protecting the safety of the craftsmen and preventing anyone from stealing the secrets."

"Yes, let's do it."

"By the way, have the people from the One-Eyed Alliance come to do something recently?"

"Back to the prince, not for the time being."

"Go ahead and call Wang Muzhi."

"Yes!"

After a short time, Wang Muzhi bowed in.

"Lord Wang, you called me?"

Qin Yun didn't beckon: "Look at it, how is this edict drafted?" ”

Wang Muzhi looked at it, but his eyes lit up.

"Lord Wang, this is to build Qiongzhou into a capital on the sea!"

Qin Yun said with a smile: "Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, if Qiongzhou wants to be not poor, it must become a prosperous place for commerce and trade." At the beginning, the reason why this king chose this place was because he took a fancy to the geographical advantages of Qiongzhou. ”

"In addition, Qiongzhou is deep in the tropics, and rice grown here can be doubled or even three crops a year, and as long as it is properly cultivated in the future, Qiongzhou will become a rich land."

"Tropical?"

Qin Yun said with a smile: "This is the theory of temperature distinguishing regions, and when this king has time, he will write it out for you to study." I asked you to come this time, do you want to ask about the candidate for the governor of Qiongzhou, or the restructuring. ”

Wang Muzhi arched his hand and said: "My lord, the minister thinks that in the name of Liang State, he should establish a county and take the dynasty team. ”

Qin Yun squinted and smiled, "Tell me." ”
