Chapter 55
After leaving Tai'an Garden, Li Yu glanced back at the You Pavilion behind him, and couldn't help cursing: If you want to squeeze me dry, don't even think about it...

Although he is envious of the official position of Dasinong, he still has the salary of eight thousand stones.

But compared to the arrears of 70 yuan, it is simply a drop in the bucket.

Li Yu would rather ponder how to make money in the rear than go to the battlefield to eat and sleep.

What's more, if you still go to the land of Baiyue, which is full of poisonous insects, wouldn't that be Li Yu's life?

But Ying Zheng's behavior is understandable.

Daqin's military talents have withered and passed down generations, otherwise Li Yu would not have sent two generals into the Lishan Army in a row.

Thinking of the Lishan Army, Chen Qingzhi hadn't been seen for a long time, and he didn't know how effective the special forces he had been training was.

Li Yu hurried back to the Hou's Mansion, explained to the housekeeper Zhang Deli, and then rode to Hanzhong County.

The Shenhuo horse galloped all the way, Zhao Yun could only eat ashes behind him, and simply slowed down to enjoy the scenery along the way.

The man plowing in the spring, the lady driving the pigs, and the little boy playing in the mud on the ridge with his bare buttocks.

The Qin Empire at this time revealed a burst of vitality from the inside out.

As for the scene here, the person who contributed the most is not Li Yu, but Ying Zheng who sent people to build the road.

And Yingzheng probably didn't expect that the smooth way to use it for military use has become the key to the development of people's livelihood and economy.

Li Yu remembers a popular saying in later generations: To get rich, build roads first.

Now it seems that this idea has been thought of and implemented as early as in Daqin, when Yingzheng was in power.

And at this moment, the black road, the white dividing line, and the pink Martha flashed through Li Yu's mind.

……

There were many thoughts along the way, and as far as the eye could see, we had already arrived at Lishan Camp.

The Hanshui Wharf is not far away, and there are several dark warships on the river.

Li Yu got off his horse, looked at the dark imperial warships in front of him, and choked for breath.

And getting closer to the hull, this is a huge ship that can accommodate a thousand people.

Li Yu couldn't help feeling overwhelmed, and shouted: "Feng Yansheng is awesome!"

Unexpectedly, a head suddenly poked out from the deck, it was round and familiar, looking suspiciously, it was Feng Yansheng or someone else.

Feng Yansheng was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Li Yu to come so fast, then he smiled and said: "Master Hou is here, did you call me just now?"

Li Yu was a little surprised that Feng Yansheng was in Hanzhong, but judging by the situation, he was clearly waiting for him.

After all, the current Feng Yansheng is equivalent to the chief engineer of Daqin, and it is not his style to wander around with nothing to do.

Li Yu suddenly said with emotion: "Your Majesty should award you a model worker."

Thinking that Li Yu was talking about some kind of mold for manufacturing, Feng Yansheng asked casually: "Model worker? What kind of mold is that?"

Li Yu couldn't laugh or cry, Feng Yansheng thought of molds when he heard the mold characters?
Could it be that he went mad...

Then he asked worriedly: "My Lord Feng, how are you doing recently?"

When Feng Yansheng saw Li Yu asking about the recent situation, he suddenly became energetic and said, "It's okay, it's just that screw that has troubled Feng for a long time..."

Still competing with screws?
Li Yu immediately slapped his head and said, "Didn't I say that the development of that thing is temporarily suspended."

Feng Yansheng looked very much like an old father being disciplined by his son. He rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "It's not that there is nothing wrong with it. It just so happens that a new group of craftsmen has been recruited to study and study..."

Perhaps because Li Yu is an engineering student, Feng Yansheng can be regarded as the ancestor of this industry, and he is a little close without coming.

Li Yu shook his head helplessly, and said: "Don't study it anymore, I will go to the Foundry Department some other time, and bring you a blueprint. Now tell me about the situation here."

Upon hearing the blueprints, Feng Yansheng immediately felt that the wait was not in vain, and then he grinned and said, "The construction period is too fast, and the craftsmen of the shipbuilding department have remodeled the grain transport ships of the empire.

There are a total of eight such iron-clad ships, one main ship that can accommodate 3000 people, and seven medium-sized ships that can accommodate a thousand people, all of which came according to your request, Lord Hou. "

Li Yu nodded, Yue people live in hidden forests, and can walk in water, "Water travels in the mountains".

They were the first to develop the Louchuan, and now the Lishan Army is preparing to suppress the Baiyue rebels, it would be impossible without the navy.

Eight ships, in this way, the navy trained by Chen Qingzhi was just enough.

Li Yu glanced around the building, except for the soldiers stationed at the building, but there was no sign of Chen Qingzhi, so he asked.

"Where is Chen Ziyun?"

Feng Yansheng smiled mysteriously, pointed to the deck below, and said, "Master Hou, go down and have a look?"

Seeing Feng Yansheng being so mysterious, Li Yu suddenly became interested, and said with a smile: "What are you doing, lead the way."

The building boat that accommodates thousands of people, including the two-story pavilion on the deck, has five floors up and down.

Li Yu walked down from the deck, and the word "Jiashang" was written at the entrance of the first floor.

When I entered the first floor, my eyes lit up immediately. The spacious inner space can accommodate at least 500 people.

A row of pillars in the middle divides the first floor of the cabin into two halves. It seems to be Feng Yansheng's handwriting. Such a row of pillars can improve the firmness of the building.

There are several one-foot windows on both sides of the cabin, which are used to observe sharp weapons such as spears.

Then he went down to the middle level again, and Feng Yansheng said: "The middle and lower decks are the core of the building just now. The middle level is the weapon compartment, and the lower level is the power compartment..."

Before Feng Yansheng finished speaking, Li Yu happened to see a figure bent over and shaking his body back and forth through the entrance of the corridor.

……

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and lightly gestured to Feng Yansheng to mute his voice. After getting closer, he realized that it was a false alarm.

I saw Chen Qingzhi holding a piece of sackcloth in his hand, and was vigorously wiping the Type 99 Lianista in front of him.

……

Hearing the movement behind him, Chen Qingzhi turned around suddenly, and originally wanted to say "put the oil down", but when he saw that it was Li Yu, he swallowed the words back on his lips.

"Lord Hou, Master Feng, why are you two? I thought Sun Xiaosheng, who was looking for the cook, was back."

Li Yu was a little confused when he heard the words, did Chen Qingzhi forget to eat?Otherwise, why send someone to find the cook.

"You are cleaning the ballista and looking for a cook, but are you hungry?"

Seeing Li Yu's question, Chen Qingzhi knew he was misunderstood, and quickly said: "Your Majesty misunderstood, my subordinates are already full in the morning."

"Then how do you..."

Chen Qingzhi smiled and explained: "The ballista is made of copper and iron. The humidity on the ship is heavy and it is easy to damage, so..."

"That's why you sent people to the cook to ask for oil?"

Chen Qingzhi was startled, and opened his mouth and said, "Master Hou, how do you know that!"

Anyone who thinks about it with his butt knows that Chen Qingzhi's stupid method is nothing more than being afraid of rust, and then smearing it with cooking oil.

Li Yu said unhappily: "You don't train your soldiers well, just let me worry about it. This crossbow is made of wrought iron mixed with copper. It is resistant to corrosion, and it has been painted with tree varnish. Keep the body dry at ordinary times. Just do it."

After finishing speaking, Li Yu turned around and thought, Chen Qingzhi was equipped with these armaments, so it is a good thing that he can take good care of the feathers.

Then he said: "Including the outer skin of the boat, it is also painted with tree varnish. After that, it is good to check the hull of the boat carefully. If there is any damage, remember to inform Mr. Feng's subordinates."

……

Chen Qingzhi's face darkened, and he said in embarrassment: "This subordinate has been busy for half a night, so it's for nothing?"

Half night...

Li Yu couldn't help grinning, looked at Feng Yansheng and said, "Did you tell Ziyun?"

Feng Yansheng waved his hand quickly, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "I am not long before Lord Hou, and I saw that General Chen took great care of the ballista, so I forgot to explain..."

However, Li Yu didn't believe it. This old boy's love for the Lianista was not low, and he probably wanted to take the opportunity to remind Chen Qingzhi.

Li Yu didn't point it out either.

For a moment, two people in the cabin snickered, and one person's face darkened.

When Sun Xiaosheng rushed to the cabin with half a barrel of oil, he found that Chen Qingzhi was no longer there...
