Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 627 One!arts!money!

The boy's hands trembled, and his fingertips quietly climbed onto the lid of the box, subconsciously wanting to open the square wooden box.

He suppressed his emotions and took several deep breaths. It took him a long time to forcefully suppress the urge to open the box, and then let out a long breath.

He remembered that Bai Jingzhen had told him in a letter earlier that what he sent someone from Fuli to send over was a handwritten letter from his uncle and mother's correspondence in the old year.

——For things like this, he had better wait until he returned to the barracks and no one was around to look at them.

"Okay, thank you." Mo Junli closed his eyes, his pupils trembling slightly under the long eyelashes, "Yan Chuan, you have worked hard this journey."

"It doesn't matter if you don't work hard." Yan Chuan narrowed his eyes, and his voice was flat and straight. "The key is, master, can you stop talking about this kind of thing every time."

Wage increase! !
Just saying that there is a chicken|feather, but you, the unscrupulous master, are raising our wages! !
Damn it, the price of food in the capital has risen countless times, why hasn't the wages of the unlucky head of the secret guard of the Prince's Mansion not increased yet?
Yan Chuan stared at his master expressionlessly, with that expression, the words "wage increase" were clearly written on his face.

Mo Junli choked suddenly upon hearing this, and his face instantly became a stiff whiteboard.

"Ah... Yan Chuan, are you short of the salary of the prince's mansion?" While speaking, the boy's lips twitched uncontrollably—if he remembered correctly, Yan Chuan, Wan Bai and the others , seems to be much richer than him?
"Besides, hasn't He Ling always been in charge of wages? What's the use of telling me?"

"There is no shortage." Yan Chuan said and spread his hands, "But the form is always necessary."

"Furthermore, look, master, this subordinate is old enough to think about marrying a daughter-in-law, why don't you let your subordinate find ways to get more money and save money for his wife?"

"As for He Ling—Master, don't even think about it. If your subordinates have the guts to look for He Ling, where would they come here to find you?" Yan Chuan looked at the sky, he didn't dare to provoke the iron rooster-like "food and clothing parents".

If you want to provoke, you have to find a way to let your master take the lead.

"Oh, by the way, speaking of Heling—Master, I see that there have been a lot of affairs in the pavilion these past two days, and the people in the pavilion are also very busy. Why don't you tell Heling when you go back and let him look at it? Let’s recruit some more people in two days.”

Yan Chuan smiled: "In case something happens in the pavilion, there are not enough people."

"Well, the number of people doesn't need to be too many. The subordinates feel that a hundred or ten people is almost enough—what do you think?"

"...Yanchuan, you seem to be threatening me." Mo Junli was alerted when he heard this—according to the rules in the Guanfeng Pavilion, the food and clothing expenses of newcomers in the first month of entering the pavilion are all from him Deducted from the case!
Generally speaking, to raise a newcomer, all kinds of food, clothing, weapons and other odds and ends will cost about fifty taels in the first month, and the monthly allowance given to him by the pavilion is an unshakable 6000 taels... …

If there are really a hundred new recruits in the next month pavilion, wouldn't that mean that he only has 800 taels of silver to use next month?
Mo Junli, who had done some calculations, suddenly became numb, and Yan Chuan spread his hands indifferently when he heard the words, with an understatement: "Maybe, who knows."

"Come on, master, go find the young master, I'll take these things to the open space first—master, see you later!" Yan Chuan said, and after finishing speaking, he made a gesture to drive the car with his whip.

Seeing this, Mo Junli hurriedly grabbed the young man's sleeves, with a very kind smile on his face: "Hey, don't be in a hurry, Yanchuan, isn't it just a wage increase, and it's not a big deal."

"Rise! I'll give you a raise tomorrow!"

"Then... master, how much are you going to raise for your subordinates?" Yan Chuan put down his whip in response, and embraced his chest leisurely.

He bet ten taels of silver, his master would never give him a wage increase of more than one tael of silver.

Maybe in the end, it can only be increased by a mere one or two hundred coins.

But one or two hundred cash is fine. After all, he doesn't really want to cheat his master's money. He just expresses his strong protest against his behavior of finding him a bunch of extra jobs every day and not giving him a wage increase. .

——It’s okay to mean it.

Yan Chuan was thinking like this, but unexpectedly the boy over there bent his eyes and grinned, then decisively and without thinking, he raised a finger, raised his chest and raised his head, confidently: "One! Wen! Qian!"

His roar of "one penny" was earth-shattering, and his echo soon echoed in the slightly empty Yanguan, and the snow covered on the dead branches beside the road was shaken off by his voice, rustling He slapped Yan Chuan across the face.

Yan Chuan listened to the devilish and endless "one penny", raised his hand and wiped the snow off his face, only to feel that all the thoughtfulness he had just now fed the dog.

Oh man.

The young man turned his head and glanced at Mo Junli with the look of looking at a fool, and then drove the carriage without saying a word. He shouldn't have counted on him, an unscrupulous master, to tell Heling directly that he doesn't have enough manpower next month, so let him Just recruit more people.

Seeing his appearance, the young man felt uncomfortable, so he hurriedly chased after him and started thinking endlessly: "Don't be like Yan Chuan, that penny is also money, you can't dislike it just because it is a penny... "

"What's wrong with a penny? You can buy a steamed stuffed bun, a sugar painting, a candied haws or a small twist for a penny—tsk, look at your attitude, eh~ wait a minute, don't speed up !"

Mo Junli chased Yan Chuan for a whole journey, and finally the matter ended when Yan Chuan couldn't bear it anymore and was forced to accept the salary increase of this penny.

The boy who had fulfilled his wish went to the small building in a good mood, and soon called Mu Xiuning and Zhan Mingxuan.

The three of them went to Yanchuan together, the four of them gathered together for a while, and finally decided to call someone to move them to a small warehouse near the school grounds, and then take advantage of the early hour, put two of them together, spread them out, and try Test power.

The four of them made up their minds, and immediately called for someone to call for someone, and someone who dismantled the car. After a group of people split up for less than two minutes, a whole row of new bows and crossbows had already been placed on the Yanguan school grounds.

"Hey, Your Highness, your craftsmen are really fast." The Mu Da Guoshi, who was temporarily dug out from the military | After reading it, "I thought we wouldn't need them this time."

"Actually, it's not too fast. It's been a month since the blueprints were delivered." Mo Junli shrugged and said in a leisurely tone, "But it's really a coincidence. I didn't expect that we can use them this time."

"Well, it's a coincidence, but it's really a good coincidence." Mu Xici nodded, while stringing the bow and loading the arrow.

She carefully raised the arm of the crossbow, then lowered her body a little, stabilized the crossbow arrow with one hand, and pulled the trigger with the other, aiming at the grass target hundreds of meters away.

Mu Xiuning, who was fiddling with the hinge of the bed crossbow at the side, was immediately amused when he saw her movement: "Okay, little girl, your movements are quite standard. I didn't expect you to use this thing."

"But I saw it just now, the string is quite strong, can you hold it?"

Master Mu paid no heed to his words, she never responded to him, and only pulled the trigger silently.

　The worst thing is to be cowardly

　　Another note: the bowstrings of large crossbows such as bed crossbows and three-bow crossbows are very strong, and it is basically impossible to pull them apart by humans alone. Generally, several people need to use hinges, ropes and other things to control the string and pull it together. Twist in place.

　　This is either used for siege or defense, it is not something that can be carried with you, so what the second brother fiddled with is the hinge

　　Then the god arm crossbow is three feet and three feet long. It is a relatively strong crossbow among individual soldiers.

　　A sister's improved version will of course reduce the difficulty of using this thing and improve the accuracy, so it can be regarded as a few private settings with references (maybe not counted).
