But now, because his mission is more urgent, he can't worry about it so much anymore.
After quickly arriving at Shen Kuo's side, he patted him on the shoulder.
"Master Shen, what are you looking at? You are so lost in thought."
The expression on Shen Kuo's face was stunned for a moment, and then he slowly turned his head.
When he saw the person behind him, he immediately frowned.
Then, he kept searching for the image of the other person in his mind.
But after much thought, he couldn't figure out who the person behind him was.
So, he asked a little embarrassedly.
"This sir, is..."
Wu Zhi smiled slyly at him.
"I'm your colleague from the Ministry of Industry. Is it possible that I don't recognize Mr. Shen?"
At this time, Shen Kuo's eyebrows furrowed even more tightly.
However, no matter what he thought, he just couldn't remember the name of the person in front of him?
Wu Zhi laughed at him.
"My name is Wu Zhi, and I co-designed the stage for the Spring Festival Gala with Mr. Li Jieli."
"I don't often come to the Ministry of Works to report, so it's normal for Mr. Shen not to recognize me."
It wasn't until this moment that Shen Kuo knew who the person in front of him was?
Although he had never met Wu Zhi before, he heard some things about Wu Zhi from the officials of the Ministry of Industry.
Meeting him by chance at this time really surprised him.
This time, the two of them knew each other.
As for Wu Zhi, he didn't want to chat so much with the other party, so he hurriedly started analyzing the feasibility of the Zhuge Liannu with him.
What Wu Zhi didn't expect was that Shen Kuo had actually studied Zhuge Liannu early on.
However, because he was too busy with his usual work, he never developed it.
And there are many things he doesn't understand about many details.
When Wu Zhi learned the news, he immediately drew the drawing of Zhuge Liannu for Shen Kuo.
He also gave Shen Kuo a more detailed explanation of the key points of the exquisite design.
That Shen Kuo had never seen anyone use sketching to depict this kind of engineering drawings.
Immediately, I became very interested in his painting techniques.
Moreover, from the process of Wu Zhi explaining Zhuge Liannu's principles to him just now, he saw Wu Zhi's erudition and versatility.
After all, there were some problems that had been bothering him for a long time.
But in Wu Zhi's case, the principle was clearly explained in just one sentence.
"Master Shen, maybe you don't know yet, but in nine days, I will lead an army of ten thousand people to go on an expedition."
"And the reason why I came here this time is to ask Master Shen for a favor."
"That is, could you please lead a production team to make these Zhuge Liannu as soon as possible."
"After all, you also know that once a Zhuge Liannu with excellent performance like this is made, it can greatly reduce the casualties of our soldiers."
"After all, the soldiers of the Jin and Liao Kingdoms are extremely brave beings."
"We, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, would probably be no match for those soldiers if we did not have one or two handy weapons."
After Shen Kuo listened to Wu Zhi's words, he also realized the urgency of making these crossbows.
Therefore, he immediately agreed to temporarily put down all the work in his hands and devote himself to building these crossbows.
Strive to deliver it to the army that is about to go on an expedition in the shortest possible time.
When Wu Zhi received Shen Kuo's affirmative answer, he felt happy.
After all, whether they can come back victorious from this expedition depends on these crossbows.
If these crossbows had various unexpected changes before they were manufactured.
Then Wu Zhi was not sure at all about this expedition.
When Wu Zhi came home and told Pan Jinlian the news, Pan Jinlian was immediately shocked.
Although Pan Jinlian had never seen soldiers from the Jin and Liao kingdoms.
However, from the mouths of many people in the Song Dynasty, we learned that the soldiers of the Jin and Liao Kingdoms were all extremely barbaric and fierce beings.
If there was a sudden confrontation with them, the ones who would suffer would most likely be their Song soldiers.
What's more, this time, Wu Zhi led a group of soldiers from the Song Dynasty, not their Liangshan troops.
So Pan Jinlian was really afraid that something might happen to Wu Zhi when he went there this time.
She had even made up her mind to follow Wu Zhi and run back to Liangshan.
But he was dissuaded by Wu Zhi.
Because in his words, he still has three businesses in this capital.
Moreover, these three businesses bring him a lot of profits every day.
And through this expedition, he can accumulate a certain amount of prestige for himself in the army.
Once these are in place, Wu Zhi will be able to bring him a lot of invisible help when he announces his plans.
Therefore, not only will he go to this battle, but he will also come back victorious.
Pan Jinlian was very angry at Wu Zhi's objection.
A man pouted and sat quietly by the bed, his eyes red.
I couldn't help but look at Wu Zhi, and my heart felt full of love and affection.
In order to ease her mood, Wu Zhi gave Pan Jinlian a more complete account of what happened in the court today.
When Wu Zhi told him about his verbal fight with Kong Youdao, he immediately made Pan Jinlian laugh so hard that she fell forward and backward.
At the same time, he couldn't help but blame him for being such a bad person for actually coming up with such a way to offend the old man.
Of course, he did not dare to fully tell Pan Jinlian about the rather ambiguous affair between him and Princess Ancheng Yelu Nanxian after the disbandment of the dynasty.
Because Wu Zhi also knows that this Pan Jinlian is gentle and lovely despite her appearance.
In fact, deep down, he is just a jealous person.
If Wu Zhi lets her know those things, then he won't be able to sleep tonight.
Early the next morning.
After Wu Zhi had breakfast, he ran to the Ministry of Industry very diligently.
Because he wanted to see how Shen Kuo's research and development progress was going.
When he came to the Ministry of Industry, Shen Kuo did not disappoint Wu Zhi.
He actually built the first Zhuge Liannu prototype in just half a day.
The cost of this kind of repeating crossbow is extremely low, and mass production is also extremely easy.
According to Shen Kuo's analysis, if hundreds of craftsmen from their Ministry of Industry work together.
Then hundreds of Zhuge Liannu can be produced in one day.
Before the army sets out, at least four thousand Zhuge Liannu can be sent to Wu Zhi.
According to Wu Zhi's original plan, he wanted each of the nearly ten thousand people to hold one.
But now, although the number of these continuous crossbows is only enough to equip half of the army.
