A group of royal guards in casual clothes rode on tall horses, surrounding a large luxurious carriage.
In addition to Ximen Hao, there was also Ji Mengmeng in the carriage.
Ximen Hao still maintained a shameless posture, leaning between Ji Mengmeng's two mountains, stroking the two snow-white jade pillars with his hands.
Liu Quan was driving the carriage, and Li Bai was sitting on the other side of the carriage, holding a wine gourd and pouring wine, while holding up his riding whip.
Mo Lin squatted next to Li Bai, his eyelids drooping, as if he was dozing off.
Daji, Yu Ji, and A Ke were sitting at the back of the car.
The three people's strange costumes, exaggerated figures and looks attracted the attention of many people.
Lu Bu, on the other hand, was wearing stylish equipment, riding a red rabbit horse, and holding a Fangtian painted halberd, looking majestic and majestic!
Ji Wubing and Cheng Gong followed, because the main purpose this time was to accompany His Majesty to meet the selected candidates for the special forces and communications corps.
"Your Majesty, we have arrived at Niu Dazhuang's weapons shop. Do you want to take a look?"
Sima Zhong, who was accompanying him, suddenly whispered outside the carriage.
"Oh? Niu Dazhuang? Go and have a look."
Ximen Hao's eyes lit up in the carriage. He hadn't seen Niu Dazhuang for a long time. He wondered how the old boy was doing.
Also, I gave Gao Dashang a high-explosive grenade, but I don’t know if the other party has researched it yet.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Sima Zhong took the order and then informed Shen Da in front to start clearing the place.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the largest weapons shop in Tianqing City.
"Your Majesty, we are here."
Liu Quan opened the car curtain.
Ximen Hao stood up and pulled Ji Mengmeng out of the carriage.
First he looked around, then looked at a huge shop next to him.
"The first weapon of the Qing Dynasty~ Haha, who took it?"
Ximen Hao looked at the name of the store and couldn't help but smile.
"Your Majesty, this is Niu Dazhuang. It was replaced on the day you ascended the throne. It is said that your weapons shop is the best in the Qing Dynasty."
Sima Zhong looked a little strange. He couldn't understand that stubborn cow. He didn't know when he changed his gender and started to flatter him.
"Hahaha! Yes! Master Hao's blacksmith shop should be number one!"
Ximen Hao laughed and pulled Ji Mengmeng into the blacksmith shop.
As soon as I entered the blacksmith shop, I saw a dazzling array of weapons, armor, etc. inside.
Unlike in Donglin City, there is a special place for making weapons here, and they are only sold outside.
On the floor of the shop hall, there were no less than twenty or thirty dwarfs kneeling, and the leader was Niu Dazhuang.
"Long live the common people paying homage to the emperor!"
Niu Dazhuang was the first to kowtow.
"Long live the emperor while I wait to see you!"
The other dwarfs also kowtowed.
Ximen Hao was startled at first, then looked at Niu Dazhuang and asked:
"Niu Dazhuang, where are so many dwarves?"
Niu Dazhuang raised his head and looked at Ximen Hao respectfully:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, these are all deserters who have come to serve Your Majesty. This is an order from the Young Patriarch, asking us to help Your Majesty build weapons."
"Ha! This Gao Dashang is so interesting to hear! Come on, everyone else should step aside. I want to have a chat with Da Zhuang."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Niu Dazhuang and others stood up and retreated inside one by one.
Ximen Hao sat on a chair, glanced at the hall, and couldn't help but ask:
"Dazhuang, where is your daughter Niuhuahua?"
Niu Dazhuang's face suddenly changed and he said quickly:
"Your Majesty! Huahua is married and can't serve your Majesty. I hope your Majesty won't be offended."
"Forehead……"
Ximen Hao was speechless for a moment. He just asked casually how he acted like he was robbing someone else's daughter.
"Hehe! Big brother, is this dwarf's daughter very beautiful? Why are you so afraid that you will snatch her away?"
Ji Mengmeng saw through Niu Dazhuang's thoughts and couldn't help laughing.
"I...forget it, Niu Dazhuang, I ask you, has your young clan leader thoroughly studied hand grenades?"
Ximen Hao didn't bother to explain and directly changed the topic.
Niu Dazhuang was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed and he slapped his forehead:
"Your Majesty, if you don't ask, the common people have almost forgotten that the family sent a letter the day before yesterday. It is from the young clan leader, asking the common people to hand it over to Your Majesty."
As he spoke, he took out a letter and handed it to Ximen Hao with both hands.
Liu Quan hurried forward, took the letter, looked at it a few times, and handed it to Ximen Hao after confirming it was safe.
Ximen Hao took the letter and looked at it. It had a blank cover.
Then he tore open the seal and took out the letter inside.
Brother Hao personally declares:
Brother Hao, I haven’t seen you for a long time. I miss you very much. Tiandu College is a lot boring without you.
The high-explosive grenade drawings were not designed. For some reason, the grenade suddenly disappeared after decomposing, making it impossible to check its structure.
Brother Hao, you said this was given by the gods. Maybe the gods didn’t want me to wait to study it.
Alas! I wanted to create a weapon for war, but God does not allow me, the dwarves, to explore the unknown territory. It is really visible but intangible, and the pain is unbearable...
Brother Hao, Niu Dazhuang will follow you from now on, as well as some dwarves from the Qing Kingdom. I will ask them to look for Niu Dazhuang.
Although we, the dwarf clan, live in peace with the world, brother Guanhao is not an ordinary person. Maybe one day in the future, we can benefit from each other.
Okay, I know Brother Hao is very busy. After I graduate, I will go to Qingguo to talk to Brother Hao.
Gao Dashang, handwritten.
…
Ximen Hao looked at the letter in his hand, feeling a little moved by Gao Dashang's friendship, but more disappointed.
Fortunately, I can now mine treasure chests and fire a large number of grenades, otherwise there is really no need to train my own special forces.
However, what surprised him was that the dwarves of Qingguo could serve him in the future, so he could have some of his important weapons made by these dwarves.
After receiving the letter, he looked at Niu Dazhuang and said seriously:
"Niu Dazhuang, listen to the seal."
Niu Dazhuang was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Niu Dazhuang, I will make you my royal forging minister! And I will also make you a hereditary viscount! All your descendants can enjoy the treatment of viscount. From now on, you will make special weapons for me!"
"Ah? Minister of Forging?"
Even though Niu Dazhuang had no experience, he knew that there was no such official!
He was overjoyed to receive the title of hereditary Viscount. After receiving the order from the young patriarch, he no longer objected to serving the government.
"Hahaha! Niu Dazhuang, do you know what is used by the emperor? When I need any weird weapons in the future, I will personally draw the drawings and make them for you. As for normal times, you continue to do your business! Also, the weapons from Tianqing City in the future
The shop is all yours to manage!"
With one word from Ximen Hao, all the weapons shops in Tianqing City were recruited.
"Grass people~ Oh no! I thank you for your kindness!"
Niu Dazhuang understood that he would be linked to the royal family in the future, and he would have endless materials to improve his rank.
Ximen Hao nodded, then turned around and ordered:
"Liu Quan, go back and notify the Ministry of Civil Affairs to register, and then order some official uniforms for Lord Niu."
