Sun Chuanting greatly appreciated Zhu Yixi's forbearance for the sake of the country.
The young man he personally promoted is intelligent and resourceful, and he is a member of the clan. He is loyal to the country and can be said to be a true confidant.
For a time, the relationship between the two became more and more harmonious.
The front hall was lively, while the whole family was eating snacks in the back hall.
"Mom, father, who is coming to the house today? He doesn't seem to be a big shot."
Xue Niang's fair face showed confusion, and she said softly: "It's rare to see him having guests over for dinner!"
"A young man!"
Feng took a sip of tea and said softly: "The young man you promoted has some skills and helped your father solve a lot of troubles, so I specially called him home."
"I met him once. He is very thoughtful and has a handsome face. He is a good young man."
Feng gave a rare compliment.
"Mom, are you called Zhu Yixi?"
The damselfly asked with a smile while eating snacks.
"How did you know?"
Feng was surprised.
"Not long ago, we went to the temple fair and met him. He even disturbed the gangsters and saved a female crown!"
The damselfly said seriously: "He is a good person at first glance."
"Sister, why don't you take me to the temple fair?"
On the side, the eight-year-old son, Sun Shining, could not help shouting: "Unfair, unfair!"
"You still have to study!"
Feng glanced sideways at her son, and then said in a deep voice: "You should put your studies first, how can you play around casually?"
"Oh!" Sun Shining lowered his head helplessly, chasing after snacks.
Xue Niang on the side took a handkerchief, wiped his chin, and then said softly: "He is an upright person, and my father only uses his."
"No matter how good-hearted you are, you still have the ability."
Feng Shi smiled and said: "It's a pity that such a handsome young man belongs to the clan. Otherwise, he would be a perfect match for my Snow Lady."
"Mom, what are you talking about!" Xue Niang blushed when she heard this, lowered her head, and was quite embarrassed.
There were ripples in my heart.
The damselfly was not afraid of trouble. When she saw her sister blushing with embarrassment, she became even more enthusiastic: "Yes, yes, it suits my sister very well!"
"Huh!" Although Xue Niang has a weak personality, she can still fight back. Her face turned red and she whispered: "Damselfly, I'm angry, and I won't be naughty with you anymore."
"Sister, I won't talk anymore." The damselfly covered her mouth, her mouth was bulging, and she kept chewing snacks, her face full of pleading.
Xue Niang couldn't bear it, so she reconciled as before.
The family talked and laughed, and it was another happy day.
The banquet between Zhu Yixi and Sun Chuanting was about to break up.
Finally, Zhu Yixi hesitated for a while before suggesting: "Governor Xian, according to my opinion, the Franchise cannons and Tiger squatting cannons in the army are not very powerful against intruders. Only the Hongyi cannon
, he is considered the king of guns, and he is invincible."
"Hongyi cannon?" Sun Chuanting thought for a while and said: "There are quite a few on the Guan-Ning border, but this cannon is quite heavy. It can be used to defend the city, but it may be disadvantageous in field battles."
"Even so, no matter how bulky it is, it is still a sharp weapon. We have no enemy, so why not give it a try?"
Zhu Yixi advised that the Hongyi cannon was too expensive and he would not be able to do it without the support of the Governor's Mansion.
"Forget it!" Sun Chuanting nodded and said, "Firearms are the key to the Qin army's victory. You can try them out."
Zhu Yixi was overjoyed.
When we left Sun Mansion, the moon was hollow, and Xi'an in April was still a bit cool.
"Sect Master!" Thirteen, Zhu Yi, and Zhu Shuang squatted beside the carriage. When they saw Zhu Yixi coming out, they rushed forward happily.
"Where's the big one?" Zhu Yixi asked curiously.
"He's back to settle accounts." Thirteen said with a smile: "The Medical Department is getting medicinal materials and horse feed today, so we can't delay."
"That's right, I forgot about it!"
Zhu Yixi suddenly realized, smiled and said: "Let's go home."
"Su Fei outlines the blue and white, and the strokes of the strokes turn from thick to light..." On the way, he was in a good mood and hummed a ditty.
"Sect Master, this is another official appointment."
Thirteen sat outside the carriage and looked back at the sect leader who was humming a tune. He couldn't help but said happily.
"Yes!" Zhu Yi was taller and taller than the thirteen-year-old, and he was happy about it.
Nowadays, several people are completely tied to him, and they are all prosperous. Naturally, they are moved by their sorrows and joys.
The next day, Zhu Yixi took office and also served as the chief craftsman.
For the craftsmen, this is the dissatisfaction of the layman guiding the expert.
But there is no way, this is the military order.
Zhu Yixi was also straightforward. He directly brought five thousand taels of silver from the Governor's Mansion and placed it in front of everyone.
The dirty craftsmen, with bright eyes, were holding the silver on their heads and breathing heavily.
In this world, money is still king.
"Let me tell you, once I take office, the craftsman camp will no longer withhold payment. I will give it to you every penny."
Zhu Yixi held up a silver ingot and announced loudly: "My requirements are not high either. Be obedient, obedient, and obedient again."
"Can it be done?"
"Can--" Limited by the temptation of silver, the craftsmen swallowed their saliva and shouted in unison.
"Okay!" Zhu Yixi clapped her hands, and the silver ingots were immediately taken away, and cartloads of grain were delivered.
"Everyone can receive a bucket of food today, no one will be exempted!!"
"Alas--"
Everyone instantly became excited again.
Two thousand people, one fight per person, only cost more than 200 shi and less than 900 taels. It is much more beneficial than just paying money.
Whether they are apprentices or craftsmen, everyone likes food. In troubled times, food prices fluctuate high and low, and money is worthless. However, food is still real and can fill the stomach.
Immediately, Zhu Yixi took the former craftsman around again and said: "You are a senior. When I take office this time, I mainly take care of big things. You have to do the daily work."
"What are you talking about?" Ma Dashan said hurriedly: "Your command will be followed."
"I have to take a look at the three things that a new official should do when he takes office, and then it's not too late to burn them."
Zhu Yixi laughed softly and said: "There are more than 2,000 people in Jiangying camp. Before we start moving, we have to convince people."
"that!"
Ma Dashan hesitated for a while and then said: "Chief Zhu, there are actually not more than 2,000 people in the craftsman camp."
"Are you getting paid for free?"
"If we don't eat free money, it will be difficult for everyone to fill their stomachs."
"I see!"
Zhu Yixi nodded, not taking it seriously.
Corruption has been deeply rooted in the bones for hundreds of years. After one thousand taels, you can get 800 taels. After peeling off the skin at all levels, it will be good if you can use 500 taels.
"I have a sense of discretion about these."
Zhu Yixi showed a confident smile.
Ma Dashan breathed a sigh of relief, just be sensible.
…
Jinxian Temple, Miaoxian walked slowly, looking at the empty lobby, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Then, she looked at the steps again, and there were no lovely wild flowers there.
"Miao Xian, Miao Xian?"
Master Miaofa looked at the disciple who was a little entranced and couldn't help but said: "It's time to have lunch."
"Yeah!" Miao Xian responded softly, smiled, and came back to her senses.
