According to the needs of the war, Long Chen needs to increase production to meet the consumption on the battlefield.
If Zou Cailiang wanted to increase production, he would need at least 30,000 carpenters, and Long Chen simply couldn't find that many carpenters.
Without carpenters, there is no production, which is a dead end.
Carpentry is a technical job and cannot be done quickly. There is really no way around it.
"King Wu is still thinking about the thirty thousand carpenters, right? This problem cannot be solved."
Zou Cailiang said helplessly.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Brother Zou, it's true that you can't solve it and yet you still say that you are sincerely asking me to solve the problem."
Zou Cailiang smiled and said, "I'm just telling you the truth. Don't blame me."
"It's rare for King Wu to come back. I'll let you have a drink at my house today. Princess, you won't mind, right?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "No, I won't come home until I get drunk tonight."
The two of them drank and chatted at the house, talking about the destruction of Nanliang this time and the ghost clan.
.
Linjiang City.
Gan Xin and Mo Lin entered the city, and the left-behind general Zhang Ke immediately came out to greet them.
After Gongsun Ming left, both Diaoyu City and Linjiang City came under the control of Zhang Ke.
"Two adults, what? Are you the only two coming back?"
When I heard that they were back just now, Zhang Ke thought that the empress and Long Chen would lead the army back to the city, but he didn't expect that there were only two of them.
Gan Xin said: "The Holy One and King Wu have crossed the river from Jinling and returned to Beijing, and will not come here again."
"We are here to take people back to the capital. You don't have to worry about it. Just go about your business."
Zhang Ke knew that the two of them had special status, so it was best not to interfere with their affairs.
Zhang Ke retreated and Gan Xin said, "How about we split up?"
Mo Lin said: "Let's split up. You go to the secret room. I'm Taoist Priest Xuanzhen."
Gan Xin rode a horse to the courtyard where Long Chen used to live. After dismounting, he walked to a small, secluded courtyard.
Two spies from the West Factory were standing at the door. When they saw Gan Xin, they immediately asked, "Does General Gan have any orders from King Wu?"
Gan Xing appeared here, and the spies guessed the intention.
Gan Xin took out Long Chen's token and said, "King Wu ordered me to take them away."
After confirming the token, the spy immediately Step aside.
Gan Xin took out the key, opened a small door, walked down the stairs, and found a small room inside.
Hu Feiyang, Qiu Kuohai and the other Nanliang generals were sitting down there, bored.
"Damn it, how long are you going to lock us up!"
A general cursed impatiently.
Another general scolded: "General Hu and General Qiu are here, why are you complaining!"
The general was dissatisfied and retorted: "I can't say it anymore!"
Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai were wearing casual clothes, and their armor had already been taken off.
The generals under their command were quarreling, and the two of them were too lazy to talk.
In the last battle in Linjiang City, Li Chengdao broke through Emperor Zun and thought he was invincible, so he challenged Long Chen to a duel.
As a result, he was beaten miserably. The generals came forward to rescue him, and Long Chen captured him with one move.
Li Chengdao escaped, and Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai became prisoners.
Long Chen did not kill them, but locked them in a secret room.
At this time, they also thought about why Long Chen didn't kill them?
Maybe it was to kill them together after conquering Nanliang, or maybe they were thinking about old friendships.
Gan Xin walked down and heard footsteps. Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai stood up at the same time, and the quarreling generals immediately shut up.
Since being locked up in the secret room, no one has ever come down.
The spies only brought food in through the entrance of the cave, and their feces and urine flowed out of the toilet in the secret room. No one ever came in.
Everyone held their breath, not knowing who was coming down.
If it's Long Chen, are they about to die?
Ahem.
Gan Xin coughed twice and appeared in front of everyone.
They have never seen Gan Xin, so they don't know who he is?
"Generals, I feel aggrieved."
Gan Xin smiled and took out the pipe of dry tobacco from his waist, filled it with a pipe of shredded tobacco, and started smoking slowly.
A skinny little old man.
The generals under his command slowly gathered around him, surrounding Gan Xin in the middle.
Hu Feiyang asked coldly: "Who are you? What is Long Chen's purpose of locking us here?"
Gan Xin Mei Mei took two puffs of dry cigarette and said with a smile: "I am just a little old man who likes to smoke. You are an unknown person. King Wu locked you up here to give you a way out."
The general next to him was in a frenzy after being imprisoned. After hearing what Gan Xin said, he jumped up and cursed: "Give me a way to live, I want him to give it!"
call.
The infuriating energy exploded, and the shouting general flew up and hit the wall hard, knocking him unconscious.
This Emperor Zun technique shocked everyone!
"Emperor!"
Qiu Kuohai exclaimed, the contempt just now was swept away, and he couldn't help but take a step back. .??.
Everyone retreated, not daring to surround Gan Xin again.
Hu Feiyang was also laughed at and asked in shock: "Who is your Excellency?"
Why have you never seen such a powerful Emperor Zun? Impossible!
The emperor's cultivation level is comparable to that of the empress. How could Long Chen be an unknown person?
Gan Xin was very thief and saw everyone's surprise.
He enjoyed this kind of fear.
Long Chen is too powerful, and you can't enjoy this kind of pretending to compete with him.
"Who am I? I'm just a little old man who likes to smoke cigarettes."
Gan Xin sat on the stool with a smile, and everyone took a few steps back, almost standing against the wall.
Qiu Kuohai bowed and asked, "Are you King Wu's general? Or the Empress' general? Or..."
Qiu Kuohai really couldn't figure out the identity of such a powerful person.
Gan Xin coughed twice and puffed out streams of smoke from his mouth.
"Oh, I think back then, Emperor Wu would be able to dominate the world with his cultivation, and he could become a general and a marquis."
"Now, even though I am an old man with a peak level of cultivation, I can only be a handyman under King Wu."
Gan Xin laughed helplessly at himself, while Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai were dumbfounded. "The peak of Emperor Zun?"
"Isn't the Emperor the strongest at his peak?"
"Even the empress is nothing more than this."
"Who is this old man?"
"He is Long Chen's handyman? Are you kidding me?"
The more surprised they are, the prouder Gan Xin becomes. This feeling is so refreshing.
"Stop guessing, little old man Gan Xin is a subordinate of King Wu."
"I am here to tell you today that Nanliang was destroyed and Li Chengdao ran away. He followed the ghost fetus as a lackey and went to the north to join the ghost clan."
Gan Xin took a puff of the cigarette, pretending to feel satisfied enough, and finished everything.
These words shocked everyone into silence, and everyone was dumbfounded.
Hu Feiyang's lips trembled and he muttered: "You. What did you say? Daliang is dead?"
Gan Xin nodded, looking like a kind old man, and said: "Dead, your emperor Li Chengdao, who invaded Jinling together with King Wu, defected to the ghost clan and was willing to be the ghost clan's lackey. He ran away and disappeared."
Qiu Kuohai shook his head and said: "No, you are lying to us. This is Long Chen's trick. I don't believe it!"
Other generals could not accept this statement. The great beam with vast land and abundant resources was just gone?
How long has it been since the war started?
Gan Xin was too lazy to talk nonsense with them and said: "Believe it or not, you will find out when you get out. King Wu is kind and will not kill you!"
"King Wu asked me to bring you a message. The war between the ghost clan and the human race is about to begin. If you still have a conscience, you can go to the capital and join the army."
After saying that, Gan Xin turned around and climbed up the stairs, opened the door to the secret room and did not close it again.
Looking at the sunset coming through the door, Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai were stunned for a long time.
"Lao Hai, do you believe it?"
Hu Feiyang was very scared. If what Gan Xin said was true, he would have nothing when he left.
He is the general of Daliang. If Daliang dies, he will have nothing.
Qiu Kuohai gritted his teeth and said, "If it's true or false, you'll find out when you get out! Let's go!"
