Chapter 229: Unbreakable Interests
"I didn't think that there were still people in the Song Dynasty who secretly communicated with Mongolia. It seems that this Song Dynasty is not monolithic. ”
Seeing this scene, Miao Daoyi couldn't help but get nervous.
Although he had long known that the Song Dynasty would not be able to become a great weapon, he actually allowed his own people to communicate with foreign countries without knowing it, and such an act was undoubtedly dead.
If that's the case, then it won't make them succeed. ”
The determination in his heart has been made, Miao Daoyi has already decided to ruin this business, although it can only be delayed a little, but as long as he can buy enough time, it is naturally good.
made a decision, Miao Daoyi watched coldly, waiting for the opportunity to make a move.
On the docks, the boxes were unloaded and pulled by the long-awaited wagons to the newly built house next to the dock.
This house is very large, and it is naturally the place where Xie Ru prepared it from the beginning to place this steam turbine.
After all the boxes were ready, Xie Ru also asked the craftsmen to open the boxes and move the parts inside.
The light and human surface make people wonder whether these are forged from steel, and the tactile sensation that does not lag to the touch also amazes the craftsmen here, who do not know what means are used to make these things.
Surrounding these parts, these craftsmen were all grimacing, and they all stood in place in a daze, not moving.
"Don't you understand this?" Xie Ru asked.
The leader shook his head and replied, "I'm sorry. It's more than we can imagine. Forgive me for not knowing how to make this thing!"
"If that's the case, then what?" Xie Ru felt anxious and looked at Pu Shougeng with pleading eyes.
Since this person sent this thing, he must have understood this a long time ago.
"If you want me to help, it will take a thousand taels of silver. Pu Shougeng's face showed his usual greed: "After all, these things are very complicated, and if there are no professionals, it is absolutely impossible to get them right." ”
"Yes!"
Xie Ru did not hesitate, and asked his subordinates to bring a thousand taels of silver, and put forward his own requirements: "But you must let my craftsmen watch from the side." You know what?"
"Absolutely!"
Seeing that the silver was delivered, Pu Shougeng also clapped his hands, and more than a dozen craftsmen came out from the group of people he was carrying.
The craftsmen were also very good, and with the help of the tools here, they lifted the parts one by one, consulted with each other, and began to act.
Xie Ru naturally would not give up this best time, and immediately instructed those craftsmen to watch carefully, so that they could be imitated in the future.
If you rely on Pu Shougeng, it will naturally be difficult to meet the needs of the navy, so Xie Ru had a plan to forge it from the beginning to see if he could get this steam turbine out and carry out large-scale production.
In this way, the group was busy discussing and busy, and the steam turbine was quickly assembled.
A steel machine the size of a house was born, and Xie Ru was also very happy, and asked his craftsmen to bring a cart of coal to test its performance.
The extremely fine coal that had been crushed was filled into the boiler, and the boiler was also burned red, constantly making a deafening sound, and the bearings were also humming and rotating under the strong air pressure, and everything seemed to be very smooth.
Pu Shougeng smiled: "What do you think?"
"It's good, it's good. Xie Ru's cheeks were red, and he said excitedly, and he couldn't help but start to reverie in his mind.
After that, as long as this thing is loaded, the ship he designed can be used to exert its amazing power.
When the time comes, on this vast ocean, why should he be afraid of the Song Dynasty naval army?
Pu Shougeng smiled and said, "Then the cooperation is pleasant?"
"Of course. As long as you can continue to help me get these things, then I will definitely help you speak well to the Khan, so that he can also enjoy those glory and wealth. Xie Ru was extremely happy, and when he felt sleepy, he didn't go back to his mansion, so he just found a place to rest.
As for Pu Shougeng and the others, they also settled down in a nearby house under Xie Ru's arrangement.
Of course, the steam turbine was so heavy that it was housed in the storehouse, waiting to be installed on the huge warship.
Seeing that everyone was asleep, Miao Daoyi also took action.
Stepping into the storeroom, he looked up at the massive steam turbine.
Presumably in order to get a better grasp of the steam turbine, Xie Ru did not shut down the steam turbine, and let his craftsmen stay in it and continue to maintain its operation.
The scorching charcoal fire scorched the boiler, and the pressure relief valve continued to spew out steam, making people feel like they were in it, just like the buns in the steamer, which would be roasted quickly.
Standing in the middle of it, Miao Daoyi also felt that the environment was harsh, stared at the boiler in the distance, and immediately made up his mind.
"Since it is from the Song Dynasty, it should not be stayed. ”
With a clangling sound, the long sword behind it spun into the air, turning straight into a sharp light that stabbed the steam turbine in the distance.
His blow had already gathered a lot of strength, even though the boiler was enough to withstand the high temperature of thousands of degrees Celsius and the strength of nearly 100 tons, but it was still poked out of a crack.
The crack first appeared, the entire boiler could not withstand the terrifying internal force, and exploded with a "boom", and all the hot water in the boiler spewed out, with a high temperature of hundreds of degrees Celsius, directly enveloping the craftsmen nearby, and the "oops" rolled directly to the ground, and the face was burned with blood blisters.
The rest of the people did not dodge, and they were completely covered by the hot water that rushed to their faces, and before they had time to shout, they lay directly on the ground.
"Alas. If it weren't for the abuse, how could you ask me to do such a thing?"
Miao Daoyi couldn't bear it in his heart, so he could only endure his grief and turn away.
As soon as he left the warehouse, there was an earth-shattering loud noise behind him, and the huge warehouse exploded directly, and countless gravel splashed, which was really amazing.
"What's going on?"
Suddenly, Xie Ru was startled by this sound, and quickly got up from the bed, and saw the fire in the place where the steam engine was placed in the distance, and felt bad in his heart, so he immediately left the house and ran directly towards the warehouse.
As soon as he stepped out, a voice was heard in the distance.
"General, what's going on?"
Xie Ru followed the voice and saw that it was Pu Shougeng, so he replied: "I don't know, maybe the enemy is attacking." Seeing the other party's footsteps, he seemed to be a little scared, and said, "But you don't have to worry." As long as you stay in this barracks, I will be able to protect you. ”
"Then please general. Pu Shougeng thanked him.
After Na Xie Ru left, Pu Shougeng chuckled lightly, thinking: "I am afraid that the person who can cause such a movement is not an ordinary person, it seems that I need to hide so as not to be affected." But he hid his figure and followed behind Xie Ru.
That Xie Ru didn't know anything, and hurried to the warehouse with a face on his face, but when he stepped into the warehouse, a sharp sword suddenly appeared in the distance.
Xie Ru slapped his backhand, blocked it with his palm, and shouted loudly: "Who is it?" In his heart, he was nervous and inexplicable, to be able to have such a cultivator, he actually appeared at this time, and it seemed that the loss of the steam turbine was inseparable from the person in front of him.
In the distance, accompanied by a breeze, Miao Dao stepped out slowly, holding a three-foot Qingfeng in his hand, and he was already full of anger: "It seems, do you seem to be nervous?"
"It's you!"
Xie Ru's heart was inexplicably tight, and he was secretly troubled that he hadn't carried any weapons before he came out, and shouted, "Why do you want to ruin my plan?" The thought of the destroyed steam boiler made him feel terrible.
If this most important thing is destroyed, then his plan to build a naval army will have to be delayed for at least several years.
Miao Daoyi swept the other party with a cold eye, and shouted: "Why? In order to build these things, you have really created a lot of sins. Have you forgotten those people you have captured? Don't forget, because of the ban on the sea and the internal migration, how many fishermen and people have been ruined because of this? Do you dare to say that these have nothing to do with you?"
"For the sake of the great cause of the Khan, why not?"
Xie Ru looked around, but saw that there was no one around, and he already knew in his heart that since the other party had shown his figure, he was naturally completely sure that he would not expose his traces, otherwise how could he suddenly appear?
Frightened in his heart, he already had a plan to escape.
"Good. Die for your khan today. Miao Dao snorted coldly, his body was like lightning, and he approached Xie Ru in an instant.
Xie Ru raised his palm to block, although he was full of energy, but it was difficult to fight against the incomparable sword, and he immediately fell into the downwind, adding several scars to his body.
I knew that if I didn't do my best, I would definitely die here.
Xie Ru drank in a deep voice, and put his true power into his palms: "Angry waves!" Thousands of qi swept away, and when he wanted to repel the opponent with this move, he tried to escape.
However, Miao Dao's body was slightly stunned, the long sword in his hand was in his hand for a while, and thousands of qi were suddenly divided, but it did not stop his movements, a long sword swept over Xie Ru's arms again, several blood splashes, and his hands hung down weakly, and he was completely wasted.
The realm of the two is too far apart, and Xie Ru doesn't even have the strength to resist a little.
"Do you think you're going to kill me?"
Although his arms were abolished, Xie Ru jumped forward, took a few steps with his feet in the air, and did not dodge or dodge, and killed directly towards Miao Daoyi.
"Looks like I'm underestimating your power. ”
Miao Daoyi was unprepared, and was kicked by Xie Ru in the sword in his hand, staggering the fatality of the other party, although he was slightly surprised, but his figure flashed, but he turned to the other side of Xie Ru, and the sword was handed out again, leaving a few scars on the opponent's chest.
Xie Ru was hit hard by this, and he no longer had the strength to resist, so he could only be depressed.
Although Miao Daoyi sighed, the sword in his hand never stopped, and he took the opponent's head, but when he was approaching, he saw a sharp light suddenly next to him.
"Who is it?"
Miao Dao was stunned for a while, and hurriedly blocked it with his sword.
Although the sharp light was sharp, it couldn't break through his protective qi, and when he was about to stare at the other party, he felt a grand palm suddenly on his side, directly pressing on him.
Miao Daoyi looked angry and shouted: "Good guy, am I incompetent?" After a few hands, it was directly at the palm of the hand, and the earth shook with a "boom", the dust and sand were startled, and all the surrounding trees fell down, no longer the previous lush appearance.
"What a guy, his cultivation is no worse than mine!"
Surprised in his heart, Miao Dao stared at it, wanting to know who it was, and suddenly appeared and blocked his killing move.
However, there was a glorious and generous situation in front of him, which made him feel extremely dazzling in front of him, for fear that when the other party took this opportunity to attack, he immediately stopped, and all the true yuan of his body agitated, but swept away all the dust and sand around him, and returned to his previous calm.
But in the distance, the body of Xie Ru has disappeared.
"Is it to save him? It's just that who this person is, why don't I even know? Could it be that that person is from the Southern Dynasty? And judging by the number of martial arts paths, it is also very different from the Central Plains, but it is somewhat similar to those people with colored eyes. Miao Daoyi had countless reveries in his heart, feeling that he was a little unclear about the current situation.
"But that Xie Ru was injured by my sword qi, even if he was rescued, he would definitely not live long. But in this way, my traces may be exposed. No matter what, let's inform Wang Shiyi of the situation here first. I believe they should make the right decision. ”
According to what he thought in patience, Miao Dao turned into a breeze and left from here.
On the other side, seeing Miao Daoyi leave, Pu Shougeng breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, this person didn't pursue, otherwise, I'm afraid that I will be bad." "Although he is an extraordinary cultivator, he is just a businessman, and what he doesn't like the most is to use a knife and a sword, so compared with people like Miao Daoyi, he is naturally much inferior.
Skimming Xie Ru, who had fallen asleep because of the great pain on his side, Pu Shougeng took out a pill from his arms and put it into the other party's mouth.
After a while, Xie Ru woke up from his slumber.
He looked around at the situation, and then realized that he was saved by Pu Shougeng, and smiled at Pu Shougeng reluctantly, he thanked him: "Thank you for your help, otherwise I am afraid that my life will die at the hands of the other party." ”
"Maybe. But with your current situation, I'm afraid it won't last long. ”
Pu Shougeng comforted, but he thought in his heart: "If you die, then who else can bring me such a big source of wealth?" As a businessman, Pu Shou Geng does not plan to limit himself to the ship business, and even intends to meddle in politics to seek greater benefits for himself.
After all, the decadence of the Song Dynasty has become a trend, and if he doesn't find a good home as soon as possible, he is afraid that he will be involved and destroyed together.
Xie Ru also understood the other party's intentions, and out of gratitude in his heart, he said: "Even if it's only a few days, it's enough for me." ”
"Oh, if you have any plans, just tell me, and I'll do it for you. Pu Shougeng responded.
This is an important opportunity to build a good relationship with Mongolia, and he will naturally not give up easily.
Xie Ru replied: "Very good. Then please help me and inform the general about this matter. I think if he knew about this, he would have done it. After all, that Miao Daoyi has been hidden so far, and he is really a great enemy of us. If we don't eradicate it, we are afraid that it will be completely dangerous. His cheeks turned red, and a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth, staining the placket of his chest red.
"Don't worry. I'll tell you that. ”
Pu Shougeng sighed, and picked up the unconscious Xie Ru again, at the moment, Xie Ru can't die, at least when he doesn't let him see that Zhang Hongfan, he can't pass away so easily.
