Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 213 Problematic Bow and Arrow Materials
As soon as these words came out, he himself felt that something was wrong.

Commander Tan also looked at him very strangely.

Song Jingxing laughed instead: "Ning's hand splitting is a joke." He calmly said, "If I want to take it out secretly, I must report hundreds of documents to cover it up."

"Hehe, I made Craftsman Song laugh." Ning Yong was a little embarrassed.

Commander Tan raised his hand, and patted Ning Yong's thin shoulder, almost knocking Ning Yong down on the desk: "Ning's hands are too free to make such unscrupulous jokes." He changed his previous attitude. Rude, with a strong warning in his eyes.

Ning Yong reluctantly pushed his big palm like a palm leaf away: "Song craftsman is about to get married, and it is inevitable that the breadwinner will need money. It is understandable to have different thoughts."

This is no tears without seeing the coffin.Song Jingxing didn't even bother to look at Ning Yong: "Don't worry about splitting the money, my money comes cleanly, and it's not as easy to think of crooked ways as Ning split the money. I'd rather split the money, please do things quickly. Don't waste your time."

Commander Tan let out a chuckle, "I never thought Craftsman Song could speak polite words."

Ning Yong's face was ugly, he checked the list, and after confirming that it was correct, he handed it over to the officials below.

Song Jingxing is now a craftsman in the arsenal, if he wants to punish him, there is nothing he can do.Another director of the Wanquan workshop, Gong, has received some favors from the Su family...

The materials for the bow and arrow were quickly brought, and Commander Qin gave way: "Song craftsman, please check."

Song Jingxing walked unceremoniously to the box where the materials were placed, and looked through them with his hands.

Ning Yong clasped his fists and looked at Song Jingxing.Chih, look at his posture, he is really pretending.

Song Jingxing inspected the materials quickly, and nodded to Commander Qin: "Yes."

Commander Tan drew his name, picked up the box neatly and walked out without looking at Ning Yong again.

Song Jingxing followed Commander Qin, without giving Ning Yong a second look.

Ning Yong almost died of anger.

Song Jingxing, just wait!

Coincidentally, just as Commander Tan left, Commander Gong came.

Commander Gong Zeng accepted Su Bo's favor to save his life, and he was polite to Ning Yong, the son-in-law of the Su family.

He's here to collect armor supplies.

Ning Yong coughed, and Commander Gong looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, he cupped his hands at Ning Yong: "What's Ning's order?"

Ning Yong lowered his voice: "Do you know the person led by Commander Cai Tan just now?"

Commander Gong nodded: "That's Craftsman Song."

Ning Yong's eyebrows flashed a hint of cruelty: "If you have time, teach him a lesson." The commander of the arsenal has always been irritable and ruthless. Song Jingxing is a craftsman, so he doesn't believe that Commander Gong can't control him.

However, if the lesson is too much, Song Jingxing's injured family will go to recuperate, and Zhao Jinyi will save it, which is not very good.

So he hurriedly said again: "It's good to teach a little lesson, don't be too harsh."

Commander Gong looked at him with hesitant eyes: "It's a bit difficult to deal with Ning's hand...Song craftsmen are not recruiting ordinary craftsmen in military factories."

In fact, he didn't know exactly what Song Jingxing's identity was, but since Song Jingxing entered the Wanquan workshop, Commander Tan has always been polite to Song Jingxing.

He has also been in the officialdom for many years, so he still winks.

A person who is polite even to Commander Qin must have a lot of background.

As for Ning Yong...if you offend, you will offend.

Ning Yong was somewhat surprised by Commander Gong's refusal.Obviously Su Chu said before that Commander Gong is a capable person in the armory.

Commander Gong left with a polite smile.

Ning Yong watched Commander Gong leave with a cold gaze.What kind of person can be used, because he is just the son-in-law of the Su family.He gritted his teeth and thought humiliatingly, Su Chu only opened a door for him, and he had to come by himself for the rest.

Let's bear with it, and wait for him to become a bigger official in the future, and then show Song Jingxing a good look.

In the secret room of Wanquan Workshop, Song Jingxing concentrated on inspecting the materials for making bows and arrows, and didn't take the matter of meeting Ning Yong to heart.

Commander Tan watched from the side.Although his appearance is rough, he was also an experienced craftsman.He is very familiar with these materials used to make bows and arrows.Although I didn't understand the use of Song Craftsman's application for ten materials alone, he didn't ask much.

Song Jingxing picked up a blank bow, bent it lightly with his hand, and knew the problem.

In the bow-making process, the bow blank should be hung on a high place immediately after it is made, and then a fire will be lit on the ground, and it will be baked continuously until the water in the bow blank is dried and then polished and smoothed carefully, and then the tendons and glue will be added again. and lacquer, the resulting bow is of superior quality.

But the blank bow he was holding at this time had not been baked for enough time, so it went into the warehouse.

In the future, the bows and arrows made of this kind of bow blanks will fall apart as soon as they are held in the hand without being attacked by the enemy.

Song Jingxing's eyes were cold.

The person who ordered to make this kind of bow blank would be punishable.

He asked Qin Commander: "Are these bow blanks all made by Wanquan Workshop?"

Commander Tan came over, looked at the bow blank carefully, shook his head and said, "The bow blanks made by Wanquan Workshop always have the imprint of Wanzi, but on this bow... 噫, it's really strange, which workshop made this? His grandson actually used such a thing to fool people!"

Song Jingxing took out ten bow blanks: "In the ten materials, there are three bow blanks of poor quality. And..." He pulled out the bowstrings separately, "The silk used for these bowstrings is not strong enough. .”

The bowstring is made of silk spun by silkworms that eat Zhe leaves, which is stronger.

Commander Tan was already breaking out in cold sweat. He had some complaints about Song Jingxing sent by his superiors before. After all, Song Jingxing had been here for a few days and only watched indifferently in the workshop without doing anything practical. Today, he suddenly asked for ten bow and arrow materials. It's a little weird, Xindao's Wanquan Workshop, which has always been operating normally, can be picked out by a young man?
It was drizzling outside, Song Jingxing picked up the arrow feathers, and said in a deep voice: "It has been raining heavily in Kyoto for days, and the house is damp, but the glue used to stick the arrow feathers is extremely damp, so it can be seen that they have not been properly preserved."

Whether the arrow flies in a straight line or deviates after being shot, and whether the speed is fast or slow, the ingenuity lies in the feathers of the arrow shaft.

Commander Tan felt that his back was completely wet.

Song Jingxing is an expert.

Song Jingxing picked up the arrow feathers and smiled slightly: "Using goose feathers to make arrow feathers is really wonderful." The arrow feathers are best made of carved wing feathers, and goose feathers are already the worst.

The expression on Commander Tan's face couldn't hold back anymore.

He suddenly bent his knees and knelt in front of Song Jingxing: "Brother Song, please forgive me."

Song Jingxing lowered his head slightly to look at him, and sighed slightly: "Commander Tan, you are a smart person, you might as well do something smart."

Commander Qin said repeatedly: "The little one said everything, the little one told everything! However, the little one only knew a small part, and the others didn't know anything. Brother Song will have to excuse the little one."

Song Jingxing asked him: "Can you write?"

Commander Tan said awkwardly, "I can only roughly recognize a few big characters."

Song Jingxing lowered his head and packed up the materials: "It's not in a hurry, I still have to stay here for a few days, and I have to be taken care of by Commander Tan for a few days. Then Commander Tan will discuss it with other people."

Commander Tan looked up at Song Jingxing.Song Jingxing was concentrating on packing the materials and didn't notice him.

He jumped up from the ground suddenly, with a fierce look in his eyes, and a sharp dagger in his hand, stabbing Song Jingxing straight.
