Judging from the result, she achieved her goal-getting Gu Xun's support in farm matters.
Although when she set out for Daze Mountain, intervened in the farm chaos as 'Tian Yan', and received secret assistance from Zhang Han, Han Xin and others, it was equivalent to receiving Gu Xun's support.
But she still needs a real, more clear reply.
After all, the support at that time may only support her conspiracy to thwart the trap, but it does not mean that it supports her subsequent actions.
However, although the goal was achieved, doubts emerged one after another in Ayan's heart.
As the theoretical young master of Quicksand, she seems to still have many things that she doesn't understand about this organization.
She has to figure everything out.
Of course, her original plan must continue to be implemented.
………………
"Old man Ben, old man Ben!"
At the Mo family stronghold, Tianming shouted carelessly to find Master Ban.
Master Ben walked out of the room and responded angrily, "What are you doing, kid? You don't have any manners at all!"
As soon as he saw Master Ban, Tianming immediately approached him with a playful smile, "Doesn't this show that we are close?"
Master Ban shook his shoulders, shook Tian Ming away from him, stared at him with a smile on his face and asked:
"What are you kidding about?"
Master Ban didn't care much about the title "Old Man Ban". He had a naughty temperament most of the time, and he particularly preferred Tianming's out-of-the-box character.
But he knew Tian Ming well enough to know that this kid with such a playful smile would definitely be up to no good.
"What bad thoughts can I have?" Tianming asked dissatisfiedly, and then defended himself, "I am a powerful figure in the Mohist family, and protecting you is my pursuit."
"Old man, I'd better ask for my own happiness." Master Ben twitched the corners of his mouth, still looking like he was smiling.
Master Ban didn't have many doubts about Tianming's heart. This child did have the vision to protect everyone.
But Master Ban was deeply skeptical about what Tianming could accomplish.
This is not just a matter of ability.
In fact, before Tianming's current transformation, he played many key games that turned the tide and saved many people.
But this guy has more bad things, but they are usually less urgent and critical situations.
So Master Ban didn't mind counting on Tianming when he needed to make a comeback, but when everything was normal, he still hoped that Tianming would be more honest, so as not to trap them into a headwind situation.
Tianming didn't care at all about Master Ban's disdain, so he stepped forward and asked with a shy face, "Old man Ban, how are you doing with your recent work?"
Master Ben glanced at him sideways, "Why do you ask this?"
"Of course I am doing my best for the Mohist family!" Tianming pointed at himself with his thumb, "I am a giant of the Mohist family, and I am bound to take any action!"
"Do you want to participate?" Master Ban heard this, hesitated for a moment, and then asked.
"Nonsense!" Tianming rolled his eyes, "Do you think it's appropriate for a giant like me to have nothing to do all day long?"
"And if you make such a big noise this time, it must not be a trivial matter. As a giant, can I ignore it?"
"We still have manpower. Do you have enough people without me?"
Tianming's questions were very organized and comprehensively proved that his demands were reasonable.
Whether it was to show respect and recognition for the giant Tian Ming, to announce to the outside world that the Mohists attached great importance to the Qinglong Project, or to consider the need for operational manpower, they really should not bypass Tian Ming.
In fact, from the time the Qinglong Plan was prepared for execution, Master Ban and others did not want to hide it from Tianming.
Otherwise, Tianming and Shaoyu would never know about the existence of the plan.
But Master Ban still gave a polite answer, "Don't worry, I will definitely use you... and I will rely on you to stay at the stronghold."
Unless it's like the last time the stronghold was attacked and Tianming had no choice but to move forward, Master Ben and the others don't want Tianming to be put in danger.
The giant of the Mohist family cannot be sacrificed anymore.
Tianming's eyes widened when he heard this, and he suddenly became anxious, "Standing behind the stronghold again!?"
"You should just tie me up with a leash and use me as a guard dog!"
Staying at the stronghold seems to be a very important task at first glance. After all, if someone catches you and steals your home, it will undoubtedly be a heavy loss.
But the premise for this logical chain to be established is that the stronghold is really worth defending.
For the Mohists, the value of a stronghold itself was insignificant. With such a large area of deserted wasteland around Songhai, it was too easy to find a stronghold to settle down.
The only ones of real value are the people in the stronghold.
Protecting the stronghold actually means protecting the Mohist disciples in the stronghold.
But once the Qinglong Project begins, I'm afraid there won't be many people left in this stronghold. You can leave directly and find a safer and more secluded place to hide.
He has a hammer at the stronghold he left behind!
Are you protecting these dilapidated wooden houses from being demolished by the people of the empire?
After all, Master Ben still refused to let him participate in the operation.
Seeing that Tian Ming was getting anxious, Master Ban could only try to comfort him with kind words, "What you said is going too far. It is also important to stay at the stronghold."
"Look, this... first of all, Miss Rong will definitely not participate in the operation. She needs to be protected by someone, right?"
"Secondly, Master Xu is not participating in the operation. He also needs someone to protect him, right?"
"There are other miscellaneous ordinary disciples. Someone needs to take care of them, right?"
Tianming didn't accept this at all, and waved his hand and replied, "You are talking nonsense!"
First of all, Duan Murong needs the protection of a hammer. She is a direct disciple of Nianduan, the master of the medical family, and is equivalent to her own daughter. Only anyone who is tired of living would dare to hurt her.
Secondly, Master Xu has been hiding to recast Yuan Hong before, and no one knows his location at all. Now he just needs to continue hiding, and there is no need for anyone to protect him.
Finally, without the first two, there is no need to keep even one Mohist disciple in the stronghold, and they can all be dismissed.
However, Tianming did not refute Master Ban point by point, but simply replied, "I won't argue with you about whether they need protection. Even if they do, you can let Big Hammer be responsible."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "A big hammer won't do it." Master Ban refuted Tianming's suggestion in a very euphemistic way, "A big hammer...he is easy to get into trouble and make wrong judgments.
Suitable to stay.”
"Then let Xiao Gao, or Sister Xue Nu, or I won't keep it!" Tianming responded immediately.
"I am a giant, so there is no reason for you to go to the front line while I guard the rear!"
All in all, there is only one key point in Tianming's words - I am a giant, and I have to show my face.
Master Ben laughed and tried to fool things around, "That's not what I said. In fact, it is much more difficult for those who guard the rear than those who go to the front. This kind of..."
Seeing that he was about to be told something by Naruto, Tianming quickly interrupted him, "Don't tell me which one is more difficult. I only know that I am a giant and I have to be on the front line."
Seeing that this little guy is not getting ahead, Master Ban can only change his words and try to persuade by looking at the overall situation:
"Tianming, as a giant, you have to focus on the overall situation and can't mess around."
"What is the overall situation?" Tianming's head hurt when he heard these two words, and he asked impatiently.
"You are the overall situation." Master Ban replied bluntly.
"Hey! I..." Tian Mingrang was choked up and couldn't speak. After taking a few deep breaths to calm down his emotions, he tried his best to remain calm and replied, "Since I am the overall situation, then I have the final say!"
"In principle, that's the case." Master Ban began to talk nonsense to him, "As a giant, of course you have such power, but how to use your power requires a detailed analysis of the specific situation."
"Facing the current situation, we must come up with..."
Master Ban then told Tian Ming a round of cliches and nonsense, which could be summed up in one word—一忄即庍!
Tianming was furious to death.
In the past, he tortured others with words, but this was the first time that he was tortured with words by someone else, or by Old Man Ben.
However, Master Ben had the patience to stop talking nonsense with him, and Tianming also had the patience to fight with Master Ban.
When Master Ben told him some clichés, he repeatedly emphasized to Master Ban that he was a giant.
One of them talked nonsense, the other acted as a repeater. They struggled for half an hour, and then they ran to the well to drink water to soothe their throats.
Beside the well, Tianming sat on the ground and leaned on the bucket, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Why are you, an old man, so stubborn?"
Master Ben held the edge of the well and replied with the same rustling voice, "Aren't you more stubborn than me, old man?"
"I'm fighting for my legitimate interests and rights!" Tianming replied unconvinced and angrily, "Why do you have the final say in everything and I can only obey orders?"
"In the past, when I had no strength, you stopped me and stopped talking. Now that I have finally become stronger, you still don't let me participate in anything."
"Then didn't I become stronger for nothing?"
Facing another accusation from Tianming, Master Ban sighed and did not continue to talk nonsense around him.
On the one hand, his attitude has softened in the face of Tianming's repeated insistence.
On the other hand, it was because he was talking nonsense that his head hurt, and he really didn’t want to continue talking nonsense.
"Tianming, as I said again, the overall situation is the most important thing."
"Nothing can happen to the giant of the Mo family again."
"What's the overall situation?" Tianming waved his hand and replied emotionally, "Why can't something happen to the giant of the Mo family!"
"The giants of the Mohist family are never afraid of sacrifice! If someone from the Mohist family wants to sacrifice, it must be me, the giant!"
"I can't accept your reason. If the boss is still there, he won't accept it either!"
Listening to Tianming's response, Master Ban sighed again.
In fact, he, Gao Jianli and others all knew that what they did was inappropriate, but many times people just insist on wrong behavior.
Facing Tianming who was both angry and dissatisfied, but also hopeful and eager, Master Ban gave an ambiguous reply after a long silence:
"I will discuss this matter with Xiao Gao, the others, and Mr. Gai. You... just wait."
Tianming couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard that Master Ban really wanted to relent.
Although he kept pestering and messing around, he actually didn't have much hope.
Because he knows very well that the power of words is actually very weak, and direct action is more reliable.
The reason why I was so entangled with Master Ben was mainly to cover up, so as not to let them notice that I was holding back and making little moves behind my back.
Unexpectedly, I really managed to convince the class master with my words... Although I didn't completely convince him, there was still a slight possibility. I would go back to the uncle's place to find out more about him, and maybe it would work out, so there was no need for any extra effort.
The happy Tianming's attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees, and he asked angrily with a smile:
"Can I be present when you are discussing? I think I should be present, right?"
"Let's talk about this..." Master Ban did not give a clear reply.
Although he had the intention of relenting, he was not completely in favor of Tian Ming.
This matter still needs to be carefully discussed together by them before a result can be reached. It is not convenient for him to make any promises to Tianming now.
Tianming didn't care when he didn't get a response. He rolled his eyes and started to change the topic.
He came to see Master Ban, but he had another purpose.
Pretending to further develop a relationship with Master Ban, he leaned forward and knocked on the opponent's machine arm, "Old man Ben, is this arm of yours good to use?"
Speaking of his best field, Master Ban was very confident. He raised his wooden arm and scratched it twice, "You try?"
Just give it a try. Tian Ming was not afraid at all and stretched out his hand to grab Master Ban’s trap hand.
Then he felt a sudden huge force coming from the machine's hand, as if it could crush his palm directly.
Tianming quickly encouraged his luck to fight.
Relying on his strong energy, Tianming could easily withstand Master Ban's mechanical power, but he did not underestimate this mechanical arm because of this.
"What a strength!"
Master Ben smiled proudly, raised his arm again, and the mechanical hand quickly began to rotate, and then the position of the palm quickly switched from a mechanical claw that could grasp objects to a pile of tools.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The extra power is just a small thing, it is my universal tool."
Ordinary people's hands can only do one action: grasping, but his 'hands' can do almost anything.
Of course, a certain amount of grasping ability is sacrificed, but it is enough for Master Ben. If he encounters a situation that requires precise operation, he can use his other normal hand.
Tianming nodded repeatedly and sighed, "With this thing, wouldn't those who are missing arms and legs for various reasons be able to return to normal?"
Master Ben showed a little embarrassment, "Well...it's not enough."
"Although the cost of the mechanical hand is not high, it is highly precise and difficult to manufacture. The biggest limitation is routine maintenance."
"Not just anyone can do this."
Although the world's mechanical creations in the Qin Dynasty were all kinds of defiance, they generally had a common flaw - they needed daily maintenance.
Of course, strictly speaking this is not a defect, but a normal feature.
It's just that under the various unfavorable operations of the Mo family and the Gongshu family, it seems a bit abnormal. After all, they have realized perpetual motion technology.
In short, because of this defect, whether it is a mechanism created by the Mohist or the public loser, it requires regular maintenance and replacement of accessories by professionals.
Therefore, if you want to use agency technology on a large scale, you must get the full support of both companies.
Things like mechanical beasts can be temporarily maintained when needed, but the arms have to be used all the time. Not only do they wear out much faster than other types of mechanical creations, but they are also the most inconvenient.
No one can always have a technician by their side to maintain their arms.
So this kind of thing is basically only used by people from the Mohist family and Gongshu family.
