Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 93: Carpenter's Workshop 【Seeking Red】

Jia Rong had an embarrassing look on his face. Although he had a thick skin, it was the first time he was ashamed in front of all the generals.

Jia Rong picked up the writing brush in the hand of the panting soldier beside him and walked towards the target a hundred paces away. The generals finally stopped laughing wantonly and looked at Jia Rong's actions in surprise.

When he came to the target, Jia Rong dipped it in ink and painted a black circle about the size of a bowl on the target. Jia Rong shook his head in dissatisfaction. It was still bigger than the target in his previous life, but it was enough. up.

He took out an arrow from the quiver, and with a "snap", Jia Rong only had the arrowhead and a little wooden handle left in his hand. When he was about ten meters away from the target, Jia Rong shook his hand, A black shadow flew towards the target, and the sound of the arrow being nailed into the target reached the ears of the generals in the arena.

Jia Rong turned around, sneered, turned and left the school field, leaving only the target with the arrow and the stunned generals behind.

Seeing Jia Rong's sneer, Ulan couldn't help shivering, as if the arrow had pierced his body instead of the target, and the rest of the generals also reacted differently.

Jiang Yu was the first to react, and ran to the side of the target, seeing that the entire arrow had already sunk into the target, and just hit the black circle that Jia Rong had just drawn, and was speechless for a long time, it was so accurate.If it hits someone, it may be very difficult to survive. Although the distance is a bit close, the advantage is that it is shot directly by hand, not with the help of external objects.

This hand that Jia Rong showed shocked the audience. With this skill and precision, no one can defend on the battlefield. It made the generals who were still laughing at Jia Rong's archery just now feel that their throats seemed to be constricted. Stuffed with a ball of cotton, Jia Rong became more and more unfathomable in their hearts.

From now on, there will be a piece of red cloth about the size of a bowl on the archery target of the school ground in Beidi County, and it will be proud of shooting a red heart. Many years later, all the archery targets in the country will be changed to a piece of red cloth in the middle of the bowl. , the name of the archery target was named "Northern Archery Target".

Darts is Jia Rong's favorite game, and he is also the best. After practicing, I didn't expect that the technique has not been pulled down, and the strength is still good. Thinking that a sudden attack on the battlefield will definitely achieve good results, Jia Rong is secretly happy, and finally there is one thing that can be used on the battlefield. It's a good shot, and I need to practice more in the future.

All the Qiang soldiers and generals who can’t speak Chinese are working hard to learn Chinese. The great benefactor Ulan who gave them such a good learning opportunity is suffering language attacks from the generals’ rooms. Fighting is not allowed inside, otherwise Ulan would not have endured the spittle of the generals.

Two months later, the craftsman's workshop was completed. The majestic craftsman's workshop is the tallest building in Beidi County except the Taishou's Mansion. It is also the result of hundreds of craftsmen in the past two months.

In the craftsman's workshop, bellows stood next to each stove, as if they were soldiers being inspected. The huge pool had been filled with clean water. The building materials of the craftsman's workshop were all the best in Beidi County. The craftsman's workshop can supply hundreds of blacksmiths to work together, and such a craftsman's workshop is unique in the Han counties.

In the past two months, Blacksmith Liu has been running around the workshop, making stoves, iron piers and other items needed for weapons. Blacksmith Liu personally checked and strictly demanded that his dark and thin face became a bit haggard. However, look Seeing the rise of the craftsman's workshop, Liu Tiejiang felt that all the hard work was worth it.

The establishment of Beidi County's craftsman workshop has attracted the attention of many craftsmen. Under the recommendation of the county magistrates of Beidi County, a famous blacksmith rushed to Fuping County, and even blacksmiths from nearby counties also rushed to Beidi County. .

In the blacksmith workshop, Jia Rong looked at the dark faces of the blacksmiths and said, "It is fate that everyone gathers here. You should cooperate with each other in future work. Talented people will be reused."

As soon as Jia Rong finished speaking, there was a buzz of discussion below. Blacksmiths were reused by the court, as if they had never heard of such a thing. ..

Zhang Wei and Mi Wei beside them stopped the group of craftsmen from discussing, and Jia Rong coughed lightly, "In the future, when I am talking, if you have any opinions, you can express them one by one. Don't make a mess, you say .” Jia Rong pointed to a blacksmith who had just had a loud discussion.

The blacksmith was not pretentious, he stepped forward and said: "My lord, the little people don't know what kind of reuse they can get, so they talk about it."

Jia Rong signaled the blacksmith to go back to the original place, and said, "Maybe it's not possible in other places, but it's fine in Beidi County. As long as you make good weapons, the prefect can be promoted exceptionally and given an official position."

Each of the blacksmiths suppressed the excitement in their hearts, suppressed the desire to jump up happily, and looked at the young prefect in front of them with burning eyes.

"As long as you work hard, you don't have to worry about your family members. Sooner or later, your family members will be taken to Beidi County. How many days can you meet with them every month?" Jia Rong continued.

The blacksmiths were stunned for a while, but they didn't expect such good things to happen one after another. The more excited they were, the more they forced them to stop, because just now Jia Rong said not to interrupt him when he was talking. If you get angry with the nobleman in front of you, the green smoke on the ancestral grave will be in vain.

Jia Rong asked softly: "What? You all have opinions? Why don't you speak?"

"No, no..." The blacksmiths replied in a disorganized manner.

After everyone calmed down, Jia Rong continued: "Here, you must abide by my rules. Every month, you have two days to go back and reunite with your family. The rest of the time is not allowed to go out. You can only feel at ease in the craftsman's workshop." work, and those who violate it will be dealt with by military law!"

A chill erupted from Jia Rong's body, and all the blacksmiths couldn't help shivering. They didn't doubt Jia Rong's words at all, and nodded their heads dully.

"From now on, blacksmith Liu will be your commander, and he will be fully responsible for the guidance of blacksmithing. This is only temporary. If someone thinks he is better at blacksmithing than him, he can replace him, but before that, you must be honest. Accept his management, and later, someone will announce the rules of the craftsman's workshop to you one by one." Jia Rong said slowly.

Liu Tiejiang's face showed three points of joy and seven points of dignity. Behind the honor comes a heavy responsibility. In this way, more and more people will challenge him.

"Zhang Wei, you led fifty soldiers to station outside the blacksmith's workshop, but you found that some blacksmiths tried to escape or someone approached here without my order, so you don't need to report, just kill them!"

"Yes!" Zhang Wei took a step forward, bowed to Jia Rong, and the sound of the sword hitting the armor jingled continuously echoed in the craftsman's workshop.

An order from Jia Rong made the craftsman's workshop a forbidden place. Looking at the terrified faces of the blacksmiths who had already boarded the pirate ship, Jia Rong smiled and said, "As long as you strike iron with peace of mind, the prefect promises to give you three Double the pay."

After subduing the group of blacksmiths, Jia Rong walked away.

A few days later, Jia Rong came to the blacksmith workshop again. Looking at the blacksmiths working in full swing, Jia Rong showed a knowing smile on his face, but these blacksmiths had a big problem. Other blacksmiths are allowed to watch, and the skills that are said to be ancestral cannot be passed on to the outside world.

Jia Rong walked around the blacksmith workshop and greeted the blacksmiths one by one with their stunned expressions. This was a method used by later generations of officials to get closer to the common people, and it was also embezzled by Jia Rong.

Seeing that blacksmithing seemed very interesting, Jia Rong immediately rolled up his sleeves, took a sledgehammer from a blacksmith's hand, swung his arms and began to jingle and strike, the iron blocks were constantly changing under the strike of the sledgehammer shape.

With a sound of "Keng", the iron block couldn't bear the beating of the blacksmith in front of him, and flew into the pool, wisps of white smoke curled up from the water.

"Heh, it seems that if you don't know how to forge iron, you can't do it. You don't even cooperate with the iron block." Jia Rong's half-joking remark caused a burst of laughter from the onlookers, and the distance between Jia Rong and Jia Rong was shortened a lot.

After a while of blacksmithing, Jia Rong was sweating profusely. A blacksmith hurriedly brought a piece of cloth that usually wipes sweat and handed it to Jia Rong.

Looking at the blackened and sweat-stained cloth, the blacksmith retracted his hand in embarrassment.

Jia Rong didn't seem to notice, grabbed the sweat cloth in the blacksmith's hand, wiped it carelessly, took a look at it, and then said with a smile: "It's really not easy for a blacksmith, just this moment, the sweat cloth was wiped black." That's it, give me this one, and I'll ask blacksmith Liu to pay you a new one later." After speaking, he threw the sweatcloth to Mi Wei who was at the side.

The eyes of the blacksmiths looking at Jia Rong contained not only fear, but also deep respect. How could these blacksmiths not understand the condition of their sweat cloths? Jia Rong's move directly put all the blacksmiths in prison. He was firmly tied to the craftsman's workshop in Beidi County, and he worked harder and harder to build weapons.

Jia Rong sat in the room specially prepared for Jia Rong in the craftsman's workshop, and waved his sore right arm. Blacksmithing is indeed one of the three most difficult occupations in life. A good means of arm strength.

After a while, Blacksmith Liu hurried over, and after paying homage, he sat down on the lower chair under Jia Rong's gesture.

Jia Rong took out a piece of rice paper from his bosom, and handed it to Liu Tiejiang, who was next to him. Although paper is still very precious, the prefect's mansion still has some, so Jia Rong took it and used it.

Tiejiang Liu took the yellowed rice paper carefully. No matter what was written on the paper, the preciousness of the rice paper alone was enough for him to pay attention to it. It would be difficult for a commoner to come into contact with this thing in his lifetime.
